Chapter 1: Surprise!
Kate was sick of cleaning glasses, she was sick of pulling tab, sick of the bullshit that came with with the drucken idiots that swooned in every night sweet talking her and calling her "Baby doll" or "sweetie pie". She was shoving the damp dish rag inside one of the of the cips more aggressively than was needed, testing the durability of the pint glass when the door to the pub burst open and the two of them walked in. Her eyes snapped up from the glass in hands to where they were standing then back down to her hands, her jaw was almost to the ground. She couldn't believe what she was seeing. What a surprising night this turned out to be?
"Where 'es she?" she knew that voice anywhere.
"Where's Kate old man? We know she's 'ere" Kate dropped down beneath the counter as their eyes trailed over the room to find her. She had her back against the shelves and was staring wide eyed at the wall. Why was she so nervous? She knew this day come at some point she just wasn't ready for it.
Years. It had been YEARS since she had last seen them. What were they thinking just showing up out of the blue.
What was their angle?
"Kate sweetheart, c-come 'ere a second" She squeezed her eyes shut and looked up at her uncle. He glared at her for a moment and clicked his fingers at her angrily. She groaned, squeezing her eyes shut again then forced herself to emerge from her hiding spot.
"Holy..." Connor started to say.
"Shite..." Murphy finished for him.
They had expected her to be all grown up, but they didn't expect her to be so...feminine.
Kate was just as shocked as they were. The last time she saw them they were small, scrawny, and awkward as all get out. Now looking at the two men standing in front of her it was as if they never changed but at the same time they were completely different.
Kate realized after a long few minutes she was just staring at them like some lunitic. She shook her head trying to clear her mind a little. She soon realized they were staring right back at her in awe.
Chuckling because of how nervous she was feeling and the shock of seeing them just stare at her caughter their attention.
"Kate is dat really you?" Connor asked in wonder.
"The one and only" Kate smiled. She had to admit she was enjoying their complete and utter shock.
"But the last we saw you ya looked more like a retartded baby cow...not this" Murphy said puffing his cheeks out and opening his arms wide to demonstrate his descrided her as a young girl.
Kate felt her cheeks warm a little as she and the other patrons laughed.
Connor smacked his brother upside his head " You're an right arse ya know that Murph. What would ma say?"
"She wouldn't say anything dear brother! she'd probably just laugh like everyone else" Murph laughed and rubber the back of his head.
"Kate my dear who would these two young lads be?" Doc asked walking up next to her.
"Old friends from back home" Kate sighed and turned her attention back to the other patrons that were going on and on about what Murphy had just said about her and his ma.
Shaking her head she went on with refilling drinks and pouring what they wanted. She knew she wouldn't hear the end of that one for awhile.
"Now I suggest you all remember who answers the phone when your wives or girlfriends call and want to know if you're here or not." She spoke loudly so she can be heard " Next time I just might not tell them I haven't seen ya"
She couldn't help but laugh at the looks on their faces when they realized she was right.
'Good to know she can still make a group of men do what she wants out of slight fear' The boys thought at the same time.
"Now if you're done making fun of my younger self you mind telling me what brings you to this neck of the woods?" She asked as she started pouring them two pints knowing what they wanted sitting on the bar in front of them. They followed and sat down in the last two seats of the bar before the curve.
"Well isn't obvious?" Connor said settling into his seat.
"We came ta see ya lass" Murphy asnwered his brothers question and doing the same in his seat shruging his hoodie off.
'But why?Why had theycome to see ME? I thought they forgot all about me' Kate thought to herself setting their drinks down in front of them.
"Thank ya much" Connor said with a dazzling smile and Murphy nodded to her.
"You're welcome" She replied as she turned to find her bar rag which was on the other side of the bar by her uncle.
"Hey Doc could you throw me that rag?" She asked hold out her hand ready to catch it.
He quickly pasted the shots he just poured to some patrons and walked over to her instead.
"You could have just thrown it you didnt have to walk all the way over here" Kate knew her dear sweet uncle wanted to know more about the boys.
"S-s-so are ya gonna tell me about dem or w-what?" asked raising a bushy eyebrow.
Kate had rarely ever mentioned home to her uncle. She had moved to america to live with her uncle when she was 12. It broke her heart to leave her home and he understood all to well why she never wanted to talk about it much. Just like himself he knew she missed the beautiful green grass and hills, the dew on a spider web in the early morning hours, and the kindness that everyone shared to one another everyday. She was needing something from home and since her parents where no help at all he thought these two outspoken charming young men from home was just what she needed in her life.
"Later dear uncle" Kate laughed as she wiped up any and every spill and drop she could find.
The boys couldn't believe what they were seeing. Kate had changed so much it was unreal to them. This woman standing in front of them was nothing close to the girl they once knew. Connor knew what Murphys unfiltered was indeed rude, he wasnt wrong. The last time they saw her was overweight, clumsy, wore bottle glasses, had a mouth full of metal, and a choppy short boys hair cut.
Now she was a full grown woman. With long blond wavy hair that reached the middle of her back. Her glasses were gone and now you could clearly see her deep blue eyes. She didn't wear much make up just enough to make her eyes pop even more. Her metal mouth was gone and place she had straight white teeth. She stold at 5"6 now and was skinny. Not 'she needs a couple dozen happy meals' skinny but toned with a athletic build to her. It was clear she took care of herself a lot better than she use to.
Kate felt like she was being stared at by the boys but when she looked up only Connor was staring and Murphy was ripping away at a napkin. She knew Connor wanted to know more about her and that Murphy was jusr plain bored.
Smilimg to herself she stopped what she was doing and walked over to Doc. She gentle placed her hand on his shoulder so she didn't startle him.
"Hey uncle?"She asked softly.
"Aye? Is there something you need dear?" He asked warmly
"If its not to much I was wondering if I could take a break? I think I would like to catch up with the guys" She asked pointing over her shoulder.
"No" He said. Kates shoulders dropped a bit but she understood. As she started to go back to what she was doing before she bothered her uncle Doc started to laugh.
"I was just kidding my dear" He laughed and patted her back "Go ahead take the rest 'o the n-n-night off-f-f-f FUCK! ASS!"
Kate smiled "Thank you Doc" She kissed his cheek and grabbed a pint for herslef as she went to sit next to the boys.
They had some 13 years to talk about and not nearly enough hours of the night.
