Apocalyptic Love - A Gabentine Story

Chapter 47 - Crush

"Do you know where mom is? " AJ asked

"I think she's in our bedroom." Gabe Said

"Okay" AJ said as he walked to the bedroom door and knocked on it

"Come in! " Clem said

AJ then opened the door and walked in

"Hey what's up? " Clem asked as she put the book away she just read

"Hi mom. What are you reading?" AJ asked

"Oh just a book about how to take good care of a baby. " Clem said

"Oh. And what did it say?" AJ asked sitting down next to her

"It says the same as everyone else told me" Clem said

"Like?" AJ asked

"How to hold a baby in your arms, how to feed it... " Clem said

"Ah ok." AJ Said

"So, what do you want? " Clem asked

"I wanted to say that I'm sorry for what happened today." AJ Said

"Then tell me, what you're sorry for." Clem said

"For what happen with Gwen. I didn't mean to do it." AJ Said

"I know, you didn't want to do it. And I'm not mad at you because of this. I just want to know why said all of this to your dad" Clem said

"Oh.... yeah, that" AJ said looking down

"I just want to hear from you why you said it" Clem said

"I don't know. I was just angry." AJ Said

"But you can't say this to your dad. Imagine him saying you're not his son. How would you feel after this? " Clem asked

"Horrible. I'd be really sad." AJ Said

"See? You made him sad. Because he was sad, he got angry at you. You should never do this to anyone. Especially not to your parents" Clem said

"I know. I'm really sorry." AJ Said still looking down

"I know you are. But I still need you to fully understand, why you can't just do this to him" Clem said

"Ok." AJ said listening

"If you do this to someone again. If it's me, your dad, Gwen or anybody else, I'll get really mad at you.... Listen. Minerva told Violet a while ago that she doesn't love her and doesn't want to be near her anymore. I saw how it broke both of them inside and I don't want to see you or your dad broken" Clem said

"I don't either." AJ Said

"Please just promise me that you won't do this ever again to anyone" Clem said

"Ok, I promise." AJ Said

"Okay, come here" Clem said smiling as she opened her arms for a hug

AJ smiled as he then hugged her

"How long did your dad ground you? " Clem asked

"He said I couldn't swim for a week." AJ Said

"For a week? That sucks" Clem said

"Yeah but he said you would probably give him crap if he didn't punish me somehow." AJ Said

"He said I would give him crap if he didn't punish you? " Clem asked as she raised one eyebrow while giggling a bit

"Yep, that's what he told me." AJ Said

"I wouldn't do anything to him. It was his decision, not mine" Clem said giggling
