A/N I have been in and out of the hospital for a week and I have a bad sunburn now. I hope you enjoy this entry from Mother's Day! Enjoy!
Chapter 6 – Mother's Day
The rest of that morning was alright. We all stayed there for about an hour and after that I sent a text to Will saying that I was going to bring Jonah around Manhattan and catch up with him and when Will agreed I got Jonah. But when I left I talked to Jonah about what we should get our mom for Mother's Day which just happened to be the next day.
Susan, Will's mom, was going to be getting here at night and was going to stay here for about a week. Jonah and I both agreed that we would pull all of our money together and get our mother a nice necklace. Will got his mom a bracelet that he has been saving up for like 2 months.
After Jonah and I got the money to get the present we went to the Kay Jewelers and got a really pretty necklace that has me and Jonah's birthstones on it, we knew that our mom would love it.
Today is now Mother's Day and I can't wait until mom opens up her presents, I have always hated giving presents. I went to Jonah's room to wake him up and then we planned on going to the kitchen and trying to make dinner, it went better than I would have thought it would. After we were done we went into the living room to wait a little bit to make sure that we wouldn't wake mom up.
"Hey, Ron? Do you think that mom will like our present?"Jonah asked me.
"Ya, of course she will love it. There is no doubt in my mind that she won't." I told him and I made sure that I looked at him long enough so that he would know for sure.
A little more than 10 minutes late Brian came out of their room and said that she was up before he left to go to work. Jonah and I went into their room and shocked mom beyond belief.
"Happy Mother's Day!" We scrame when we got into mom's room, I had her necklace in my back pocket. Our mom smiled at us and went to sit down on her bed and we went with her. When we sat down Jonah and I showed her the breakfast we made her and she smiled and gave us hugs with thanks and ate. I was surprised that she actually liked it and that we were good cooks.
"That was so good, guys. I love you so much." She gave us hugs while she put the food on top of the dresser and came back to sit in the middle of Jonah and I. We both gave her hugs back.
I pulled the necklace out from behind me, "Okay mom, I know that I have not been worthy to have you for the past 3 years and I love you so much for taking me back and accepting that I have made a lot of mistakes that I want to make up for and probably never can. I love you for making me go to dad's house over the summer. You are a main reason that I am who I am today, we have all made mistakes and I love you for everything that you have done for me." By the end of that I was fighting back tears, I didn't like crying, I have always thought that it showed a kind of weakness, but I let one tear fall and my mom hugged me tightly.
"I love you so much also. I love who you are but I have always loved you no matter what we went through and we were always there together. I am so glad to be your mom and I would never trade the last few years for anything, all families have gone through some difficulties and it just makes us stronger in all ways." By the end of that I was crying into my mom's shoulder and I just couldn't stop, I looked over at Jonah and told him with my eyes to get my mom's attention so that I could calm down.
"Hey, mom." She let go of me and turned to him and I was grateful of that distraction so that I could wipe my eyes. "I love you mom and I may be young but I know when someone loves me and I know that my whole family does love me. You have given me everything that I could ever want, and I really love you for that." She hugged him and she was crying big time.
"Mom." I told her so that I could get her attention. "I know that my past Mother's Day presents didn't show how much I love you, for putting up with how I was acting you have to be amazing and you are. Jonah and I both chipped in to get the perfect Mother's Day gift for you." I presented her with her gift, when she saw that it was in a necklace packaging she looked up at us.
"Guys, you didn't have to do this. I know how much you love me."
"We know that we didn't have to but we wanted to." Jonah told her with a huge smile on his face, I smiled back at him. She opened it and her smile widened, she took the necklace at and took the birthstones and put them close to her eyes.
"I can't believe that you bought this for me, this had to be a lot of money. It is so beautiful." She took turns in hugging each of us and then I helped her put it on. "I love that you got this for me, you guys will never know how much you mean to me, thank you so much for showing me." She hugged us again and excused herself to the bathroom because I could hear that she was about to start crying. I sat closer to Jonah and pulled him into a hug.
"I told you that she would love it." I told him while I kissed his forehead. He looked up at me and smiled and hugged me back.
We sat there for 2 minutes and our mom got back and gave us another hug and kisses on our foreheads.
"Thank you again. I love this necklace so much, I never want to take this off." She smiled down at us and we smiled back at her.
The rest of the day went good. We talked about the future, when Jonah was gone to the bathroom my mom started questioning me with a smile about Will and I's relationship. It was definitely some different ground but now that our relationship was different I told her all that I would tell a mom. She laughed when I told her how we met and I told her about my birthday, and when I told her about his mom I would never forget her response.
"Veronica, never let anyone intimidate you. I know that she is your boyfriends mom but don't let her make you feel like you don't belong. Susan may make you feel like she doesn't like you but you are with her son and she may feel that now that he is older she will lose him. That is all that moms think of, I know that Will might just be the one for you and she thinks the same way. Once you start to get to know her better and show that you are not going to take Will away she will loosen up around you and start to like you. You are a very loveable person, Ronnie."
She made me feel so much better with that. I know now what Susan thinks and Will said that he was going to get all three of us together and try to get her to like me. I will try to do what my mom wants us to do.
When we got home it was around 10 so I said goodnight and went to my room. I really needed to talk to Will.
"Hey, babe. I missed hearing your voice." I smiled, I missed his also.
"I missed you too, so how did your day go."
"It went good, my mom loved the bracelet that I gave her, I talked to her about you and she said that she would meet up with you tomorrow. And don't worry I will be there with you, I love you and I would never let anything happen to you." I smiled at that, we talked for about 20 minutes and then we said goodbye.
When I was going to bed I couldn't help but smile, I never knew that a year from now I would be this happy and in love with my life.
A/N Hey, I hoped that you enjoyed it. I will post next time that I am by a computer!
