It's been 2 days. Alec's getting discharged today. Jess is bringing him home because I passed out at the hospital after not sleeping for 2 days. Someone brought me back to the house and I woke up in one of the bedrooms and I know that the unavoidable moment of meeting her sister is going to take place because it is currently 10am. She should be awake. Right?
I walked down in clothes l know I didn't wear because prior to this I was wearing the same clothes since Friday. And it's Sunday today. Aka my birthday.
I entered the kitchen in my sweats and tshirt to see a beautiful girl scaring down a bowl of cereal.
I tugged the hem of the shirt nervously as I cleared my throat.
She looked up, spoon still in her mouth and waved awkwardly. Jess mentioned she's a big introvert but she'll open up in her own time.
"Hi. I'm Andy. You must be costia?"
She nodded her head and I looked to the book next to her on the counter.
"Magnus chase? That was a good series. I loved all of his books actually. I used to be obsessed with the different mythologies."
I looked back at her to see interest in her eyes.
"Yea I like it so far. Percy Jackson is still my favourite."
She had a soft timid voice and it suited her personality.
"Well have you read about the Egyptian Gods and Goddesses yet?"
"No. I've been meaning to buy it but I've been saving most of my money and I don't like asking Jessy for stuff."
"That's okay. I have the set if you'd like? I can lend it to you? When you finish magnus of course."
She looked at me and hesitated before speaking.
"That would be nice."
"You like reading I presume?"
She nodded her head while I walked over to the coffee machine needing alot of caffeine.
"Me too. But my son doesn't. So I don't get much time to read anymore."
"Your sons 8 right?"
I nodded and smiled.
"Does he like video games?"
I nodded again and laughed. The boy won't pick up books but prefers the controller.
"I like video games too. I'm actually a gamer."
"Oh wow that's really cool. You're really accomplished hey."
Pouring my coffee into a mug, I went to stand opposite her.
"It's about time management. Anyway what's one of your favourite reads?"
"Well the vampire academy was really good. I liked it but not many people did. Lord of the rings was amazing. I don't really have a favourite. I just read alot."
"I get that. I'm the same."
"That's really cool."
"You're nice. I don't usually like people. But you're nice."
I smiled and thanked her.
"We should hang out sometime when I come down. I mean we don't have to but I would love to. I mean you're probably busy with work and your son and now my sister but anyway yeah. Hangout or whatever."
I started laughing and she stopped mid ramble and looked kinda hurt and I felt bad.
"Oh no hun I'm sorry it's just you and your sister have a tendency to ramble and I would absolutely love to hangout with you. Next time you're here you and I can spend the day out okay?"
She wearily nodded and picked up her book. I took that as a cue to leave and went to sit in the living room by the door, anxiously waiting the arrival of my girlfriend and son.
The wait wasn't that long because as soon as I finished my coffee, Alec ran through the door screaming for me.
"MOMMY! MUM!"
I laughed and he looked over at me before charging at me. I bent down and received him as he wrapped his free hand around me.
"Hi buddy. Mommy missed you baby."
"I missed you too mom. Jessy said she's taking me shopping and I want you to come with. Come on let's go."
"Hey now I said later." I looked up and saw my breathtaking girlfriend walking in with a few bags in hand.
"Now bud. Why don't you go get something to eat?"
He nodded and walked away. I think he's learnt his lesson about running.
Jess dropped the bags and lifted me in her arms, spinning me around.
"Happy birthday beautiful." she whispered in my ear as she spinned me.
"Thank you. Can you maybe put me down so I can kiss you?"
She laughed and put me down, kissing me on the lips.
"I love you birthday girl."
"I love you back baby."
"Oh I'm aware. So today. We have dinner with your mums tonight but next weekend. You're free. I'm free, I have plans."
"You do?" I looked up at her from her arms, playing with the small hairs on the back of her neck as I looked into those gorgeous eyes.
"Of course. It's your birthday baby. Obviously I'm doing a something special. Starting with a shopping spree if you want? I need to take Taylor to get stuff. And obviously spoil my sister a little. You and Alec need stuff for your rooms. So how about it hey?"
I thought about it and I want to say yes but one thing bothers me slightly.
"Just one thing my love."
"Hmm? What is it? Anything baby." she leaned foward and kissed the top of my head.
"I like the way our room looks. I don't want to change it."
"Our room?"
I nodded.
"Well then baby we don't have to change a single thing."
"Are you sure?"
She nodded and I smiled before going to get ready.
~~~<>~~~~<>~~~~<>~~~~<>~~~~<>~~
We just got back from shopping and I'm exhausted.I walked into the house in a daze, leaving my phone on the counter while I got myself some water.
"Babe you gonna get that?"
"Huh?" I was confused as hell. Tired too but not the point.
She nodded her head towards my ringing phone and I saw it was Dr Robbins. I dived for it and accepted the call.
"Doc. Hey. Hi."
"Hey Andy. I just got the results. Would you like to come in to discuss the findings or over the phone?"
I looked towards Jess who swiftly came to hold me.
"Now. Please?"
"Well. The mass is benign. It's not affecting him in anyway as far as we can see. So I'd like to book him in so we can run further tests."
"Oh my God. Thank you Dr Robbins. We'll bring him in this weekend."
"Enjoy the rest of your day. Bye."
She hung up and I started crying tears of pure joy.
"He's clear."
"Baby that's amazing."
