Xavier FINAL(101)
“What’s he having done?”
“It’s a secret.” Taelyn laughed.
“You’re in deep Taelyn. If they’re sharing secrets with you already there’s no turning back.” Abe laughed.
“We got it Abe thanks.”
“A shipment was delivered at five this morning. It’s all in the back.”
“You were here at five this morning?”
“Everyday.”
“Abe you need a fucking break man. Go get laid, sleep in, and surf. Man you just need to breathe.”
“I have responsibilities.”
“I’m sure we can handle things for a while.”
“You two hash it out I’m gonna head back and check the shipment in.” Taelyn smiled.
I bent down and gave her a kiss and patted her little ass when she walked away.
Abe laughed and looked towards the door. “Uh oh.”
I looked over just in time to see Momma Joe getting out of a town car.
I walked to the door, opened it and she ran up to me and hugged me. “I have missed you so much.” She stood back and looked me up and down. “Tell me, what has changed with you? You look different.”
Abe laughed and interrupted, “Momma Joe, welcome home.”
“Abraham you need a vacation. I hear you are practically living here nowadays.” He kissed each of her cheeks. “I’m serious. You and Jase use to go on spring break in South Florida, you’ll do the same this year.”
“Things are busy here.”
“Don’t argue Abraham. Schedule it, all my boy’s will be home. How much could they possibly mess things up in two weeks?”
Abe tried not to laugh and Momma winked. “Go. We will discuss this more on Sunday at dinner.”
“Sure thing. Momma Joe?”
“Yes, Abraham.”
“Just so you know I tried my best to keep Xavier out of trouble.”
“I see that on the internet. Shame on you Xavier. I warned you about all that. I hired that nice girl, where did she end up.”
“In his bed,” Abe laughed as the elevator doors closed.
“No?” Momma looked stunned.
“She did. I won’t lie. I’m actually in a relationship with her now.”
“A relationship? Oh please Xavier, don’t lie to your Momma.”
“I am and get this, I’m in love.”
“With Miss Patrick?” She looked shocked.
“No one else.”
“Xavier, you’re joking right?”
“Swear to God above.”
She looked at me and I thought any moment she was going to reach up and feel my forehead to make sure I wasn’t sick.
“The redhead?”
“Yes Momma.”
“Okay dear.”
She went and sat down. “You alright Momma?”
“Of course I’m alright. I’m happy you have found someone to give your heart to.”
I had to laugh and she looked up at me. “I knew it. You’re pulling my leg.”
“You hired her. You must have known I’d fall for her.”
“Xavier that is not at all why I hired her.”
“I know why you hired her. You thought there was no way in hell I’d try to get into her panties.”
“Whatever it is in those panties must be very special,” she mumbled.
“Xavier?” Taelyn yelled.
“I’m telling her you said that,” I whispered to Momma.
“You wouldn’t dare hurt her feelings. Xavier she has a sweet voice, we don’t chose who we love it just happens--.”
“Out here still.” I yelled back.
“You don’t make her feel insecure Xavier. Don’t make this uncomfortable for us.”
