"Can we go out for dinner?" Our legs are intertwined, I'm half asleep
"Hmmm, yeah, no, yeah when" I'm half asleep
"Thursday night"
"Yeah okay, Let's just sleep" I nod into his chest and his fingers take through my hair.
Thursday rolls around "what's the dress code?" I ask, I'm shuffling around the boxes of clothes
"Just jeans, comfy clothes" he's in joggers and a long sleeve white top. I dress in baggy jeans and one of clays weird crocodile tops
"Let's get going" and like that we're out the door
"Where are we going?"
"Oh you'll see, just don't be angry okay" he scoffs
"Erm okay. I swear if we're going to that Thai place that gave me food poisoning they'll be serving your head"
"Oh it's much worse then that"
Dread fills my stomach, oh god. I see Claire peering out the front window. "You should've gave me warning"
"It'll be okay, honestly, just breath" he takes my hand "let's go in". The air lays heavy as we knock on the front door.
"Clay, Lara." Mark pulls us into a hug.
"It's so good to see you again mark" I reply
"Lara you look so pretty" Claire stands behind her husband.
"Thank you" I avoid her eyes. It's silent for a moment
"Come in come in" mark moves out of the entrance.
Clay and his dad are shouting at the telly, we're all watching football, well mark, Clay, Tristan and Ava
"I'm all out" wine is the only way I'll be able last this night, and it's I've just ran out. I walk to the kitchen where Claire's slaving away "is it okay if I grab another glass?"
"Yep" she pops the P, I pour a glass of white wine "listen Lara," she starts "I shouldn't have said all those harsh words towards you, it's unfair and cruel" her eyes or hands never leave the chopping board
"It's no worries Claire, I want what's best for clay I'm sure you do too, so as long as we both have similar goals"
"You're Right, as Long As my sons happy that's all that matters" knowing how stubborn Clay is that must've taken her the year they've not spoken to say it, I don't think that her words were honest but her intentions for clay probably are.
The dinner goes smoothly. No altercations this time, the bridge slowly seems to built back between mother and son.
"Thank you" we walk down the pavement, I hop over the cracks
"For what?" I giggle
"For coming tonight, for being you, for loving me, for letting me love you" I really laugh
"Stop, you're so cringey."
"Oh shut up"
"No seriously you make my heart melt in every single way"
"I'll take it."
"So where'd you go?" Ena pounces on the bed
"His mums house"
"What?! He brought you back into the lions den?"
"Mhm. It actually didn't go awful. She apologised to me I guess. Don't get me wrong I dislike the women and she won't have a say with mine or clays future, but it doesn't mean clay shouldn't have anything to do with her."
"Oh how the master has became the... higher master? Sensei?"
"I know! I fee so mature, nearly 21 and already wise beyond my years"
"We're all getting so old, George is like 34, clays 25, nicks 23 and Christ were 21"
"Don't remind me" I roll over "cuddle me?" And so she spoons me to sleep
I wake up to six beady eyes peeing at us
"Oh bloody hell!" They all break out into a chorus of laughter
"What's happening?" Ena stirs
"Our pedo boyfriends and their boyfriend are watching us"
"What?"
"Just admiring the view?"
"Dude what the fuck? That's my girlfriend"
"Nick don't curse, I'm still tired let's go to bed" and then there were three
"You two spoon i need a wee" I waddle out "no kissing though!" After returning from the bathroom they're both still sat next to each other. "Guys please" George bursts out laughing
"Guys please" George mimcks in a weird tone
"What the hell, you're English too you ninny"
"She doesn't understand, I thought she would understand lore."
"I do, it's literally where I met my ex boyfriend" clays face stiffens
"Not law, lore"
"You've just said the same thing twice" I hold two fingers up, "anyway I want a cuddle" I crawl over George and lay inbetween clays legs
"Yep I'm out" and so George exits.
"You've became so quiet"
"I just like listening to you"
"You're my favourite human you know."
"I know everything, I'm wise."
"Is it because you're so old, I mean you're like double my age"
"Common kingsey, im three years older, and why am I not you're favourite thing?"
"Well tails was my favourite thing then he got poorly. I just can't believe my mum told me he died two months after he died, we didn't get to see him in England!" He brushes my hair through with his fingers
"That's because he died before we got to England"
"It's beyond a joke! She's a right piece of work"
"They both are" the 'they' meaning both our mums
