Casey's
I can't believe what I just heard it has shocked me. On some level I knew it was going on because the both were sneaking off at the exact same time but I just didn't think about it at the time. There was a silence for a little while after brax had told me and rubes the news.
'So instead of looking shocked and not saying anything why don't you tell us what you both are feeling?' brax said breaking the silence me and ruby both looked up Charlie had tears running down her face but I don't understand why.
'Why are you crying Charlie?' I said
'Because I knew youse weren't going to be happy about the news but instead of just staring I thought you would have at least ran off or shouted and screamed. I was expecting that but the glares that you two are giving I can't deal with' she said brax grabbed her hand and I noticed she dropped it straight away and she went to get up and walk away. I had to say something.
'Wait Charlie' I said she turned around and looked at me 'Its just a shock for me that my older brother is dating my girlfriend's mum who is also a cop and I know how much this one hates cops' I said pointing to brax. She come and sat back down
'I know it is case but I love her and I do still hate cops but she is different' brax said Charlie slapping him on the arm playfully
'Well as long as it don't affect me a ruby and you make each other happy then I'm happy for you just treat each other good' I said getting up and giving Charlie a kiss on the cheek and brax a pat on the back
I noticed ruby was just staring she hadn't said a word since brax told us she was worrying me because she wasn't blinking or anything. So I tried to call her but I didn't get a response.
Charlie's P.O.V
I was glad Casey was happy for me and brax because the three people we wanted to be happy for us were the three people we cared about the most. Not that I was sure we were going to tell heath yet. We all noticed ruby staring into thin air it worried us all because she wasn't responding to any over us.
'Shut up all of you' she said in a whisper finding it hard to talk
'Do you want a drink?' I asked her she nodded and brax and Casey went to the bar to give me and ruby time to talk.
'Rubes please talk to me' I said with tears in my eyes. I grabbed her hand and she looked at me.
'How long?' is all she could say
'Two months' she stood up and come and stood over me.
'Oi you two get over here now' she yelled at brax and Casey. When they joined us the three over us shared the same look….. Confusion
'Why you all looking confused?' she said laughing
'Because rubes you don't talk for twenty minutes then you yell for us to over here?' brax says looking at ruby she starts laughing
'Do you love her?' she asked looking at brax
'More then you know' he said with a grin on his face
'Do you love him?' her attention was at me now I nodded
'Well I could go two ways about this bit of information I have just been told 1. I could go on a mad one because you lied to us and Charlie the way you spoke about the Braxton's when I got with case was unreal so hypocrite comes to mind' I went to interrupt but she carried on. 'Or 2. I could grab you both a squeal and be overly happy because I know how hard you must of resisted him and I know how much he would have pestered you before you gave in but I told you the Braxton boys were hard to say no to and I haven't decided what one I'm going to do yet just give me few minutes to decide' she said with a smugly look on her face and I started laughing I know her so well she weren't angry at all. The boys looked at me looking worried.
'What's so funny?' brax asked
'See I know my daughter so well all she wants to is come over here and jump on me because she so happy but she just wants us to sweat for a little while. I said staring right into ruby's eyes. She jumped on me
'Oh you know me so well I'm so happy for you both and I'm so glad you told us' she said into my shoulder as she was hugging me I l pulled away and smiled
'Your good rubes I'll give you that' brax said giving ruby a hug
'Well us bucktons are really good at making guys squirm so watch out brax because who do you I learnt it from' we all started laughing
'But brax I warn you now you hurt my mother I will hurt you like you've never been hurt before you got me?' she said in a serious tone
'Yes I got it but don't worry I never plan on hurting Charlie' he giving me a kiss on my lips.
We all sat down and eat our lunch at angelos just talking about everything and anything it was so good to be able to share my happiness with the people I care about.
'Ruby Casey?' I said looking up from my lunch
'Yeah?' they both answered together
'We don't want anyone else knowing yet about us yet so don't say anything ok?'
'Ok ooohhh our own little family secret' ruby said clapping her hand together. Casey nodded
'Actually not a family secret because heath doesn't know and I don't know if I want to tell him yet' brax said
'Why not?' Casey asked
'Because you know how hot headed our brother can be Casey it might not take as well as you two and we can't chance him telling people'
'You don't give heath enough credit' I said
'Nope Charlie brax is right' casey said
'I think we should tell him and if he don't take it well they we will deal with the fallout together but I think he will surprise us all' I said
'Yeah I agree with Charlie' ruby said I looked at brax with a sad look on my face and ruby looked at Casey with same face. They both sighed and agreed that we tell heath. I gave ruby a high five.
'Bro we screwed what have we got ourselves involved in with getting with theses to' Casey said laughing brax just shook his head and we all started laughing.
We had planned to have dinner at angelos that night were will be telling heath our news
8pm angelos
Brax's P.O.V
Me, Charlie, ruby and Casey were at angelos waiting for heath to arrive. We were just have normal chats while we waited. Thirty minutes later heath came and sat next to Casey who was sitting next to ruby and me and Charlie were sitting opposite them. All four of us were nervous about what heath would say and do.
'Come on what's this about?' he said
'Who said it was about anything can't we just have dinner?' I sad
'No we can't so spill'
'Alright, alright we've got something to tell you' he interrupted before I had a chance to say anymore
'You and buckton are together yeah I know its old news' he said smirking
'Wha- What? How did you know?' I said finding it hard to get my word out. The other three just started at me and heath
'I've known for ages you two think your good at sneaking about but you are defiantly not I was just waiting for you two to tell me yourselves' he said laughing I was shocked and by the other's face they were as well.
'Why you all looking so surprised I'm not as thick as you all think I am you know'
'Clearly not' Charlie said laughing
'So buckton you finally got one of the braxtons to stop doing crime and into your bed shame I always thought you had a soft spot for me not my less attractive brother' he laughed I shot him a look
'No heath that's in your dreams I had a soft spot for you but you can stop dream about you brother's girlfriend because that gross and I can ensure you that your older brother is attractive more attractive then you'll ever be' Charlie said and heath was speechless. It was the first time I had ever seen him lost for word we all started to laugh. This day was shaping to be a good one.
'On a serious note though heath you can't say anything to anyone not even the boys?' I said
'No of course I won't bro I've kept it to myself this long I think I can carry on for longer'
'Out of interest how long have you known?' I asked my younger brother
'I've thought it for about a month but it was confirmed when I walked into angelos a few weeks ago and you were sticking you tongue down her throat' he said I noticed Charlie blushing 'Oh buckton no need to be embarrassed were all family now but as your with my older brother, your daughter is with my younger brother you got a sister or anything for me then this can be a family affair' he said we all laughed
'No heath I'm sorry I haven't but you seem to be alright with my best friend so therefore its still connected in a way' Charlie said with a grin on her face.
Today had been really great my two brothers and Charlie's daughter were all happy about us and have promised not to say anything. The night went smoothly without a single hitch I was so happy everything was falling into place. At the end of dinner Charlie and ruby stayed at our house and heath went to spend the night with Bianca.
