My Overprotective Brothers

Chapter 21

Ambers P.O.V 

Dylan and I are back home now and preparing the table for family dinner, I neatly place the mats and cutlery down for each person and pour homemade lemonade into each cup that mom prepared earlier.

"Dinners ready!" Grey screams from the kitchen and a heard of footsteps run down the stairs in a hurry.

"Whatever is baking in that sweet oven smells heavenly Dil!" Dylan skips to his seat and sips on his lemonade.

By now everyone is seated, and Grey is holding a steamy pasta bake in his grey oven gloves, I find it funny every time. Dad dishes up the food and we all tuck in, I was starving after that photoshoot so I sloppily chew huge mouthfuls of the pasta and half the sauce coats my face like a foundation.

"You're so gross Amber!" Isaac said in disgust, I rolled my eyes and gave him my evil glare that earnt a few chuckles around me.

"You can never look evil princess, you look like a cute kitten that got her paws wet each time," Jason said whilst wiping my face with his napkin.

"How was the photoshoot sweetie?" Mom asked me sweetly. I didn't really know what to say...

Well, three strangers saw me naked and complimented my 'figure' and 'curves', then the actual photoshoot part was actually fun, oh yeah I can't forget about the part when I met the most handsome man I have ever seen in my life. So...no not much happened.

"It was really fun, not as scary and intimidating as I thought it would be," I said, hoping they didn't want me to elaborate further. Mom seemed happy with my answer and continued eating. I was inner celebrating that she didn't ask further questions, but my life isn't that easy.

"Did you meet any boys there?" Grey asked and turned to me, oh fuck what do I say now? Dylan is busy devouring his food and isn't even hearing the conversation, so no help there.

"No guys there, just girls," I said in the most confident voice I could produce. My brothers apart from Dylan didn't seem convinced and gave me the look of 'I know you're lying' but dropped it and continue eating.

It was silent for a while and all you could hear was our cutlery clinking together, but dad decided to break the silence.

"So Jason...when are you gifting me and your mother with grandchildren?" Dad asked casually out of the blue. Jason choked on air and started violently coughing whilst I would rub his back to calm him down.

The whole room turned into awkward silence. Me, Grey, Isaac and Dylan looked up at him with curious eyes whilst mom and dad looked at him lovingly with pure hope as if they asked nothing wrong.

Jason scratched the back of his neck awkwardly, "Ummmm I don't know." Jason said whist fidgeting in his seat uncomfortably.

"Well can we expect a girl coming home soon so we can meet her? Then discuss your future wedding plans if we accept her into the family circle?" Mom said innocently whilst Jason looked horrified.

I should probably explain...the 'Family circle' is what mom and dad created for this house, basically me, all my brothers and parents are in the family circle and if we ever get a new friend, girlfriend or boyfriend, then we have a family discussion to see if they can be included in our 'Family circle'.

We have had these discussions before when Grey and Isaac have brought home girlfriends and let's just say that it didn't end well for them... Mom and dad basically decided that they didn't trust them, and they were banned from the house.

If you get into the family circle, you must be special because it has only happened once.

A few years ago, Dylan was seeing a guy he liked from work and took him home to meet all the family. His name was Daniel and they were both inseparable, he was such a nice guy and won over the hearts of mom and dad, and from then on, he was included in the family circle.
