Chapter Eleven
"Christine, we all love Aiden, he is our little bitch." Spencer says ruffling the boy's hair affectionately with a grin. Aiden just looks at Christine seeing her skeptical look
"Ok Christine there is a dynamic here that you obviously don't understand, I will explain it for you." Aiden says sitting up and getting the attention from the whole table as he looked at his housemates and gets the nod from all of them to continue. "This is how we work Carmen is the stirrer, she like to piss people off, Kyla is the mother hen, she takes care of us all. Spencer is the bitch, she will bitch you out till the cows come home but no one messes with her people but us. Ashley is the sexy, no explanation needed, Glen is the Ass, he gets on peoples nerves and makes inappropriate comments and I am the comic relief. I love to joke." Aiden explains waves his hands at his housemates and they bow to his comment with a grin.
"Make no mistake Christine Aiden is by no means stupid, he was the one on our backs to study for finals, he is the reason we all graduated in the top ten of our class. He is going to be studying prelaw. He grew up in a stuffy and stifling environment and now he can finally let go and be himself. I mean yeah we pick on him sometimes but he loves it. He knows that we all love him and wouldn't have him any other way, And if someone tries to fuck with him then they fuck with all of us." Carmen says looking at her favorite male friend with a grin that showed she spoke the truth. Christine was just sitting there with her mouth open shocked at what Aiden and Carmen had said and although there was some shock she could also see that this was true as she thought back to the previous night and their interactions with each other, there was no doubt in her mind that youngsters would be friends for life.
"Aww Carmen that was really almost believed that you have a heart instead of a block of ice." Glen says as he walks in the back door.
"Shut the fuck up shit stick, you know you love me." Carmen says with a grin blowing him a kiss as the boy makes his way over to Aiden and kisses his forehead and makes his way to the coffee machine.
"Hey blond Barbie stop eye fucking groper the clown Mom is on her way over with junior." Glen says as he watches his sister and Ashley as their eyes were locked in an intense staring match that usually only led to one thing. "And I just have a really nice breakfast and I really don't want it to make another appearance."
"Groper the clown?" Ashley questions with an arched brow.
"yup that's your new name because you were clowning around and Groping Spencer every chance you got.""Paula says as she enters with Junior and makes her ways over to Christine as the baby reached toward the older brunette. The two had bonded last night as the adorable little boy had latched on to the older version of his favorite Ashy. "Looks like you have been replaced Ash." Paula says trying to steer the conversation away from last night as the brunette looked uncomfortable and Spencer just scowled at her.
"Cish cish." Junior gurgles as Christine takes him and gives him and Eskimo kiss before blowing a raspberry on his chubby cheek. " Gan, gan."
Ashley watched the two with a smile and remembered picture of her and her mother when she was a baby and how they had grown more distant as she got older and Ashley got more independence. It had never occurred to her that her mother was feeling a little left out of her life and when she found out that her husband had a child with another woman when she could have no more after Ashley's complicated birth her mother was left devastated and even though they had moved on she knew that her mother still longed for another child.
"Looks like." Ashley replied slowly. "Not cool little man, not cool." She says to junior as he turns and sees her for the first time trying to crawl over the table to get to her now that he had seen her. "Maybe , In your face Paula Carlin!"
" Ashy, Spenie, wim, wim. " he demands as he bangs his little hands on the table as Spencer gets up to take him from Christine and crosses his little arms as she get close enough. "I said wan wim spenie!"
"Ok munchkin man you have spent way too much time around uncle glen." Spencer says as she takes him from Christine and nuzzled his little curly head affectionately.
"Really because he reminds me a bit of you. Mom I want to make the attic my room, Glen is peeing me off and junior will need a room and if you won't fix it then I will do it myself, I want more space mom." Glen says and does a perfect impression of Spencer from the scowl right down the crossed arms and the foot stomping.
"And she did to." Paula says with a smile at her head strong daughter. "And if I recall Glen you are the one enjoying her hard work now aren't you."
"Hey I helped; I did the bathroom that was hard work Mom." The blond boy whines playfully.
"Glen you painted half of the room, Clay and Brooke where the ones to do all the plumbing. You sat there filing your nails "Spencer says looking at her twin with her smirk.
"What it's not my fault that she is so butch. Seriously I broke three nails. I had to get a mani stat." Glen says incredulously.
"Oh my god Glen you are such a whiny little bitch." Carmen snickers
"Carmen Sanchez you watch your mouth." Paula says sternly.
"Sorry Mom," Carmen says as she gets up and starts cleaning up the dishes from the table to the snickers of those seated in the kitchen.
"That's right young lady." Paul says with a grin as she smacks Carmen's butt as she walked past her earning a squeal from the younger girl. " Are you sure you want to do that again Christine."
"What are you talking about Mom?" Spencer asks
"Your dad was talking to Mom and Dad about maybe being foster parents when the move here." Ashley says to her girlfriend.
"Why didn't I know about this." Spencer says.
"Because you were wresting with Brooke and Sara in the pool babe." Ashley replies.
"And you ok with this." Spencer asks her girlfriend incredulously.
"Well yeah, there are a lot of kids out there who need a safe environment and my parents have the means to provide that." Ashley says calmly, yes she was behind this there were a lot of kids out there that need love and support and she also thought that her parents would benefit as well.
"If you are sure. Wait what where are you moving." Spencer says quickly.
We aren't sure yet but somewhere close we really want to be apart of your lives." Rafe says looking at his daughters.
"Wow, hey Babe next year can you have a quite birthday." Carmen says looking at the gob smacked brunette next to her and took her hand on the table.
"Sure honey I will get right on that." Kyla says with a soft smile at her girlfriend knowing that what she doing.
"So are you all excited to start college next week? "Christine says trying to lighten the mood, glad that they had all taken the previous news so well.
"Yeah. It should be cool. We all got into the same school so we are staying together." Glen said serious for the moment.
"That's good. What are you all studying?" Rafe says
"Well Chelsea and I are studying Art, Clay is doing psychology, Kyla is doing fashion, Spence is doing film, Glen is doing business management and sport and Aiden is prelaw and as you know Ashley is studying music, she is going to be a supastar bitches." Carmen says from the sinks very proud of her friends.
"Oh and what are the other girls doing, the lovely young ladies we met last night."Christine asks much to the amusement to everyone around the table. "Did I say something funny?"
" You called Brooke a that's hilarious Christine I like you." Aiden says giggling into his hand.
"Yes well Brooke being ladylike aside" Paula said with a smile thinking of the feisty brunette. "She is going to be studying psychology with clay, Sara is doing drama and journalism with Kyla and Madison will be study music with Ashley and dance. We are all very proud of them, they will all go far in their chosen fields."
"I am sure they will Paula." Rafe says
"And you guys are going to foster, how cool is that?"Glen says. "They really need more great people out there helping the kids."
"Yes they do, Glen and Aiden coach the basket ball team at the centre where Arthur works. They are getting quite good and it gives them something constructive to do and keeps them out of trouble." And it gives these to experience if they want to have children one day." Paula says nudging Aiden in the shoulder.
"Whoa Mom that is way off in the future we just finished school." Glen says a little alarmed.
"I know that, but I also know that you both love children and you are so good with them." She says to her son.
"Yeah well we will think of it when the times have comes." Aiden says as he looks at his boyfriend. He knew that he wanted to be with Glen for the rest of his life and someday have children be that by adoption or fostering but as Glen had said that was way off in the future. The ones that they should be talking to are Ashley and Spencer. Everyone would be lucky if those two weren't married before they finished college, no wait make that married and pregnant. He wasn't sure how that would work out but like he said it wouldn't surprise him.
