- Dylan - I said aloud when I entered his room - I want you to pick up your toys darling - my son raised his face and saw me with his face of pity, he was a first class manipulator
- Right now mom - he said sitting on his bed, I looked at the time on my watch. It was a few hours until Demetrious arrived and Dylan really knew him as his father, thank God he gave me the courage to tell him about him and my son understood, although I had to tell him that his father had not come to meet him because he worked in another city I do not ask anything else that relieves me
- Well, we are moving baby - I said putting my hands on my hips - pick up your toys and take a shower
- Mommy. Is it a long time before my dad arrives? - I felt a pang my son was excited to meet and share with him and that reaffirmed that I had made the right decision, not for me but for my son
- My love will arrive after noon, so do what I told you - he nodded and I turned around leaving his bedroom
When I got downstairs I heard the doorbell and I was speechless to find Demetrious at my door, and even more when I look at his outfit, he did not look like a businessman in those tight jeans and a black T-shirt with some Clark boots
- What are you doing here? - I managed to say when I got out of my impression
- I'm sorry to arrive earlier, but the anxiety beat me - he said sadly and a little amused by my expression - can I come in?
- Yes. Yes - I nodded feeling silly and giving her room to enter
- Did I arrive at the wrong time? - He asked looking me up and down and arching one of his eyebrows and I remembered that my outfit was not the best since I had put on. A short black shorts with a blue t-shirt and my converse, shit don't look at me like that, I took a breath to recover
- No. Okay - I said passing my hand through my high ponytail - take a seat - I said pointing to the sofa
- Thanks - I take a seat and look at myself - I brought this to Dylan. It is not a true problem - he said, handing me some toys among which you could see a glove, a video game console and other things.
- Well, not really, but I'm just telling you that I don't like spoiling him; If I give him a toy it is because he has earned it and he deserves it - he nodded - don't take it the wrong way, it's fine you can give it to him, but it's a rule that I have and I would like us to share it - my son was not going to pamper him. get everything you want. Demetrious looked at me and nodded
"Okay, you know what is good for him," he said looking at me with a smile, but sadness at the same time.
- When you meet him you will know how to deal with him and give him the gifts - I said to liven up the atmosphere between the two I think that will please him more
- Perfect - he said standing up - I would like to see it, he said excitedly
- I'm going for him, he's in his room - I said
- If you don't mind I would like to accompany you - I nodded and as we walked I could feel his gaze on my back and that made me even more nervous, when we went up the stairs I felt his gaze on my butt. Damn demetrious
- Stop looking at my ass - I said without looking at it - do not confuse why you are here
- We have not finished defining that yet - I stopped at the top of the stairs to face him
- I'll make something clear Demetrious - I said visibly angry - I let you into Dylan's life not mine, so let's take the party in peace - his gaze studied me and he nodded reluctantly
- Good - I said before turning around
- How did you explain the bruises to Dylan? - I ask after a moment of silence
- I told him that I did them when I got out of the car, not to wait for them to tell me - I smiled when I remembered my son's astonished face - that's how I kill two birds with one stone, I hide what happened and also stop jumping from the car just stop
- Cunning - I laugh in a low voice it seemed strange to me to talk to him without any shout or reproach
We reached the end of the hall where there were two rooms, mine and my son's, since on the other side of the hall were the guest rooms and the bathroom opposite
- ready for the third grade - ask funny to hide my nerves
- I think so - he said in a low voice and visibly nervous, I opened the door and entered. I was hoping to find my bedroom tidy but my son had something else in mind. I puffed visibly angry at my son, I heard Demetrious laugh behind me - a hurricane passed through here
- Dylan. Come here immediately - I said loudly, wait a bit and then I heard the bathroom door open and my son appeared in front of me all wet and with a badly placed towel - he thought I clearly said to pick up your toys and then the shower - I said, but he wasn't looking at me his attention was on Demetrious behind me
- You came - Dylan said and his face reflected a beautiful smile which reminded me of Demetrious - mommy - my son said looking at me - he came - I nodded with a knot in my stomach and I approached him
- I told you I would come - I turned around and I found Demetrious's smile was like seeing two drops of water and I also saw the anxiety reflected on his face - Let's see. Let's get dressed first - I said sitting him on the bed and walking to his dresser where he took out some shorts, a shirt, the stockings, put them on the bed and took his shoes and a comb at which millet pouted
- Mom - he complained looking at me and Demetrious who was standing watching the scene
- Mom, nothing darling - I said, I knew he could dress himself, he had already put on his underwear, but it would take time and we had to hurry - come in here - I said putting his shorts in front, I go in and remove his towel, put on his shirt and socks quickly and then put the shoes on, with the towel dry her hair and then comb it quickly - that's it. Now if you see - I said holding out my hand and the bottom of the bed - I want you to meet Demetrious - look how his gaze passed from me to his father forward Demetrious for his part observed me in a different way and then reacted and looked down at Dylan
- Hello Dylan - he said, kneeling in front of the boy - Demetrious called me hesitated a bit - and I'm your dad - I could notice his hoarse voice when he said the last thing, my protective instinct told me that it was not a good idea, but my heart knew that, if it was the right thing to do, but if it hurt my son I would know the worst of me
- My mommy told me who you were - said my happy child, at his age he did not know about problems and evil so he did not know the real reason why his father had not come to see him before - I like having a dad - I repressed my tears and breathed deep thing that happened not unnoticed by Demetrious
- I brought you some gifts - he said, handing him what he had brought him
- How do you say honey? - I said he looked at me and smiled
- We play? - Asked the very urchin, I arched my eyebrow and smiled more, he turned to Demetrious who looked funny - thank you - he said at last
- Well - I said throwing the wet towel into the laundry basket - I'm going to start preparing lunch I think you guys need a little time together - I said walking to the door - and I need you to pick up your toys or we will have a problem and tomorrow there will be consequences - his little eyes widened and he nodded at a confused Demetrious. My son knew I would take his toys away for a while that was stars to him
"Yes, Mom," he answered, "can Dad stay to eat?" —A new knot formed in my stomach when I heard him call it I directed my gaze to Demetrious and he was in schok looking at Dylan. Take control of my emotions before answering you
- I don't think Demetrious can stay
- I have no problem. If you don't mind I'd like to stay and share everything I can - he said, standing up quickly and looking at me.
- Okay - I nodded not very convinced - I'm going to my bedroom and then I'll be in the kitchen - I said to both of them and left the room closing and leaving them alone
***********************************
Having Demetrious at home made me nervous and more to share with him, so I tried not to spend a lot of time alone with him, I'm glad to know that I connected with Dylan and they were getting to know each other. During dinner my son talked up to his elbows and asked his father many questions and he answered them delightedly, it seemed that they had known each other before. I also discovered why my son hates cucumber since it turned out that Demetrious did not like it either, who would say that they would have that in common, but in spite of everything I did not trust him; Maybe I let him connect with Dylan, but my case was different. I was in the kitchen cleaning dishes to put in the dishwasher when I heard footsteps
- Brianna - I turned around and found Demetrious on the other side of the kitchen counter
- Yes - I said wiping my hands with the kitchen towel
- I wanted to thank you for the food and - hesitated - for letting me meet Dylan
- You don't have to thank me - I shook my head and ran my hands nervously through the jeans that I had put on after the shower I took when I left them in Dylan's bedroom - neither about lunch, since Dylan wanted you with him in the room. table
- He also wanted us to talk about us - he said taking a position immediately I put myself on my guard
- I have to finish cleaning - I excused myself - also Dylan ...
- He's with the video game and he won't miss me for a while - he said through gritted teeth - because you're running away from me - he seemed exasperated - I thought you didn't hate me
- I do not hate you, but I feel a bit of resentment towards you - he frowned - there are things that are not forgotten and unfortunately I can not handle some
- I apologized for what happened Brie - he said lowering his voice and I could see sincerity in him
- Don't call me that - I said denying and finished putting the dishes in the dishwasher - also; I don't know what you want from me, you already have a partner and I don't think what you have to do is find a way to tell him that Dylan exists - he looked at me without understanding - I mean, if your relationship is something serious - I wanted to know how serious It was about Dianne, but I didn't want to ask her directly
- Dianne and I do not have anything serious, it is more on Thursday at the gala I will make things clear and we will not see each other again
- It's a shame - I lied. I didn't understand myself.
- Dinner with me - he said suddenly, I looked at him surprised
"No," I answered, "I don't think it's a good idea." Also, I have more important things to do - he seemed angry
- Like which - grunt
- Like looking for a job, for example - ignore your anger
- You already have a job - he said harshly, there was the Demetrious he knew
- But I don't want him anymore - I said, taking my shoulders - my boss doesn't understand my responsibilities and exploits me like a slave and my son is sometimes disengaged because of that - I gave him a sarcastic look - besides, my brother can't always take care of Dylan, he has responsibilities too
- There will be no overtime - he said quickly - only if necessary we will stay a little, but please I do not want you to resign and I am sorry to have put your brother in this situation. Which by the way, what does he do? - I take a seat on the stool
- He is a lawyer at the Thomson firm and in addition to that he has a two-year-old girl - I smiled at the memory - my sister-in-law is a psychologist, but now she only dedicates herself to taking care of Mackenzie while she is little. My brother's family is beautiful - Demetrious's face didn't tell me anything, but I saw him studying me with his eyes and I regretted saying the last thing
- You love him a lot, don't you? - He said
- I love him - I said without hesitation - and I love my niece, she is a girl's love and they at her age are very awake
- What was Dylan like? - he looked curious and I couldn't help but smile when I remembered
- He was a happy boy. As he is now, he walked behind him so he wouldn't hit himself since his gait was still not very firm - or well, that's how I saw it - and my brother insisted on starting to teach him what a soccer ball was and he stayed charmed.
- I'm glad I had your brother - he said hurt but what could he say, the only one guilty of that was him.
- My brother is a great man and brother. He has forgiven me so many things, especially Dylan - I bit my tongue for being loud
- What did I have to forgive about Dylan?
"My brother knew and met Dylan when he was already six months old," I said without being able to hide it, "he doesn't know what happened with the father, I told him it had been something sporadic."
- But he has to know the truth and this is the d I'll go - I was alarmed at once
- I don't think it's a good idea Demetrious - I said walking to the door that led to the patio
- I have to do it - he said and I listened to him closer to me, we were silent for a moment - Brie dinner with me and let's talk - he said from behind me and I felt his body close, I turned around and had him inches from my face
- What are you doing? I said in a whisper and then felt his lips taking possession of mine.
He made his way into my mouth to explore with his tongue and instinctively mine did the same, his hand surrounded me and the other took me by the neck to delve deeper into me, I knew it was not correct but my hands had a life of their own and I passed my hands up his arms up to his neck where I stay, I still felt the same for Demetrious and hated myself that is why I thought he had no pride of his own, after making me suffer in the past here I was again falling into his arms, when he moved away from me I felt lonely and cold and shit hated it
- There's still Something between the two Brie. Do not deny it - he said panting
- The only thing between you and me is Dylan - I said pushing him out of his space - and I suggest you go with him - I said before leaving the kitchen and going up to my room. Ultimately, she was screwed.
