Here's the sequel. With Brax, Ricky and Jacob now an official family, what does life have in store for them? Find out now…
"Since when did our son get such an attitude on him?" I asked Brax as I walked into the kitchen from his bedroom
"What's he done now?" he questioned, turning to face me as I walked into the kitchen
"He's refusing to tidy his bedroom. He says he'll just be playing with his toys when we get back from the beach so why does he need to tidy them away" I informed him
"Jacob, can you come here a second please?" Brax questioned as I moved to stand next to him
"What have I done now?" he inquired
"If you don't tidy your room like your Mum has asked, we won't be going to the beach at all" Brax informed him
"But you promised" he sighed
"I know. But you need to do what your Mum asks you. The choice is up to you" he replied
He sighed and made his way back into his bedroom and Brax turned to me, a triumphant smile on his face. I moved myself up onto my tiptoes and pressed my lips against his softly, making my way back into our bedroom to organise myself for the beach…
"My bedroom's tidy now" Jacob informed us as a little while later
"Do we check Mum?" Brax asked me, raising an eyebrow
"No, I think we can trust him. Go and get your trunks on and your bucket and spade" I replied, chuckling as Jacob hurried back into his bedroom
"I'm gonna have to meet you down there" Brax admitted as I stood up, putting my cup into the sink
"Why?" I inquired, wrapping my arms around his neck from behind
"I've got to pop to the restaurant and get the books. They need to be checked and what with Kyle away it's up to me" he replied "I shouldn't be too long though"
I nodded and smiled as he tilted his head to meet mine, my lips pressing against his softly…
"Ready" Jacob proclaimed a couple of seconds later
"Right, let's go, bud" I stated, grabbing my bag from the side
"Brax, are you not coming?" Jacob asked as we walked to the door
"I'm meeting you there, mate. I've just gotta pop to the restaurant" he informed him
Jacob nodded and took my hand, me smiling at Brax as we walked out of the door and to my car…
BRAX'S POV:
After popping into the restaurant and grabbing the books, putting them into the car I made my way down to the beach with my surfboard, spotting Ricky and Jacob building sandcastles immediately. Making my way over to them, I placed my surfboard down on the sand and wrapped my arms around Ricky's waist from behind, my legs either side of her…
"Hello, how's things at the restaurant?" she asked, her head resting back against my chest
"Good. You having fun?" I questioned
"Yeah, we're having a great time" she replied "aren't we, Jacob?"
He nodded and continued to build sandcastles, oblivious to the fact Ricky had stopped…
"Are you off surfing?" she inquired, motioning to my surfboard
"I was going to" I informed her "you don't mind, do you?"
"No, as long as I can use your board after to go for one myself?" she asked
I nodded… "I'll see you soon"
Smiling at me, I kissed her softly and made my way out into the water…
Just a little cute opening chapter, what else lies in store?
