Here's some parental nostalgia coming from Tori's part.
"Jade!"
"What Vega?"
"It's West!" The Half-Latina snapped in annoyance "You did it again!"
"Did what?" The Thespian asked innocently.
"You know what!" Tori yelled from the kitchen, jumping up and down as she tried to reach a cereal box, several times almost being within reach of her delicious sugary treat but seeing as she married the biggest gank in the world, her meal had to be on the top shelve, while Jade's coffee was on the bottom shelve, within reach.
... Because sometimes some lessons are learned the hard way.
"Jade will never gonna let me forget that April Fool's prank" Tori thought in frustration "But come on, it was six months ago! She should let it go by now!"
As far as The younger woman was concerned, it was very annoying that not even she was safe from her wife's Philosophy of "You cross me and I don't get even but I will make you unhappy for a very long time."
"Jade this isn't funny anymore! Tori yells out, frustrated by her spouse's antics "I'm hungry! Get over here and give me my cereal!"
"What are the magic word?"
"Pretty please?"
"Nope."
"Are we really doing this?" Tori asked exasperatedly.
"I'm not hearing anything Vega."
"Ugh fine... You're blessed in the chest."
"And?"
"... And my ass is equally blessed." Tori finished meekly, holding her behind self-conciously.
She never liked it when her butt 's size was the topic of discussion.
"It is quite blessed." Jade teased.
"Stop talking about my butt Jade!" Tori snapped, "Come here and get me my cereal!"
"I will."
"Good."
"Right after I finished with my new song." Jade said from the living room "And since I'm in a bit of a creative slump... That may take a while,"
"Wha... JADE!"
The former Goth snickered evilly "Seriously Vega, we been married for how many years? And you still haven't caught on that you need to say the magic words after do my end of the deal."
"You are the absolute worst!"
"Buttering me up Vega?" Jade asked smugly "Cute but still no dice."
"Oh…you are paying for that one later," Tori promised darkly. "And it's West!"
The Half-Latina looks up at the shelve "Great…now what am I supposed to eat?"
Her prays were answered seconds later when her eighteen year old son entered the kitchen, immediately noticing the dilema his mother was having... Again.
"Oh, here mama," Anthony said amused, "I can get that for you." He easily reached up and grabbed the box of, before he stopped abruptly "Wait... you're not about to cook anything are you?"
"No Tony." Tori chuckled awkwardly "I just want cereal."
"Just making sure." The teenager said "No offence mama but I don't feel like cooking breakfast for the entire fire department four times in one week."
Tori blushed, after an incident with the oven and some hot dogs Tony had banned her from ever coming near "his baby."
Anthony grabbed the cereal and handed it back down to his mother.
"Thanks," Tori smiled. "I guess that's one plus side to you becoming taller than me."
"Remember when I was little and I used to be where you are now?" Tony said with a chuckle. "You know, always trying to get a hold of some cookies and then you came to the rescue and handed me the cookie jar?"
Tori sighed, holding the cereal box to her chest, looking down at her feet because she did remember those times when her son was so short he could barely reach the counter and now... now he was way taller than her.
"Mommy!" Four year old Tony yells jumping up and down "I want a cookie!"
The Half-Latina chuckled "What's the magic word?"
"Please?"
"That's right." Tori cheered "You earned two cookies!"
"YAY!"
"Mama?... Mama?"
The singer shook her head, her memory/daydream gone in an instant at the sound of her son's voice.
Not the toddler, but her teenage son's.
"Yeah?"
"You just killed your breakfast."
True to his words, Tori has been crushing the cereal box so hard that it ripped in half, so several chunks of the sugary goodness was spilled all over the floor.
"Oh... My mistake." She mumbled "Guess I better clean up this mess."
The Half-Latina got some paper towels an got to work, putting everything in a trash back, Tony meanwhile sat on a nearby chair, he cleared his throat "So... uh, mama?, I know I have a curfew and everything but think maybe I could... You know... Have a later one? Just for tonight?"
Tori sharply turned from the floor to her son."How late are we talking about?"
"2 AM?"
"Why?"
Tony blushed, here came the awkward part "Erm... See tonight is my one year anniversary with Emily."
"Ohh the one year mark!" Tori teased her son "That's an important date."
"Really?" He asked "That didn't even occurred to me."
"Oh don't worry Mijo, you'll do fine." The Half-Latina said fondly holding a piece of her son's hair between her fingers. "I still remember when your mom and I hit our one year anniversary back in high school."
"You had a good time with mom?"
"Umm well let's see." Tori muttered "First your aunt Trina stole the dress I was going to wear, then she stole my make up and I had to ask Cat to let me borrow some, I lost like an hour or so trying to get ready, by the time your mom had arrived I told her what happened and she was about to murder your aunt since she blamed her for making us late to our reservation at the restaurant."
"Is that why aunt Trina has an irrational fear of scissors?"
"Yeah."
"So, what happened after?" Tony asked curiously.
"Well, we missed our reservations at the restaurant and the water was such a jerk that he simply told us very condescendingly that we should have arrived earlier."
"I bet mom hated that."
"You're right." Tori agreed "She didn't, in fact that same night she threw a brick at that waiter's car in retaliation and then we ran like hell."
"But... How did she know which car to hit?"
"Trust me Tony, when it comes to revenge, you mom knows."
"That... That doesn't really answer my question."
The Half-Latina cleared her throat "I actually gave us asking long ago, but anyway afterward, we were still hungry so we had our dinner at a parking lot which served some real good burgers and to our surprise we heard our song on the radio, after that she blindfolded me and surprised me taking me to a walk on the beach."
"Wow, I never seen that side of mom." Tony said, impressed.
"She can be quite romantic when she wants to be." Tori smiled dreamily "But of course things didn't go as she hoped for because it then started to rain, as you can imagine she was really pissed and we had to run back to her car... Actually she took me into her arms and took like the wind."
"Then what happened?"
"Your mom wasn't one to give up and was determined to give me a night to remember." Tori answered "Then, out of the blue I suggested something we could do... In my room."
"MAMA!"
"What?" She asked "Come on Tony, you're not a little kid anymore, you already know that everyone has the need to express their love in a physical way... In fact when we were ready, your mom farted right in the middle of it and then it took me a while to convince her to..."
"I'm begging you NOT to finish that sentence." Tony said, his face turning a little green. "Mama, I simply want a later curfew because we want to have some alone time."
Tori smirked "Are you two are going to have a cook off again?"
"There will be food involved." Tony said, the blush getting stronger.
"Romantic dinner?"
"I dunno... kinda?"
"Will there be kissing?"
"If things go well."
"Will you treat her like a princess?"
"Hardly, she hates that." Tony snorted "If anything I'll treat her like a ticking time bomb that will explode at just the right time for us to enjoy our night."
"That's cute." Tori said, holding her hands over her heart.
"So, how about it?" He asked "Can I have a later curfew?"
"Yeah sure," The singer conceded. "But the moment you get home you tell me, I don't care if I'm sleeping, I just want to make sure you're here."
"You're the best, mama!"
"That... I am." Tori smirked. "Wow... So many years living with Jade has given me some kind of a smug attitude or something."
As Anthony ran out of the kitchen excitedly, yelling something about staring to get ready Jade stepped into the kitchen.
"I see your breakfast took a turn for the worse."
"Ha ha." Tori said dryly "You so you know, you totally owe me sex tonight."
Jade grinned "I was hoping you say that."
The tanned woman narrowed her eyes "Wait... Did you put the cereal on the top shelve just to annoy me or to make me order you to have sex with me?"
"Guess we'll never know Vega."
"I married a lunatic."
"And don't you forget it." Jade said with a grin "Now, care to tell me what our son was babbling about?"
"Oh, Tony wanted a later curfew," Tori said putting the box in the trash, then getting a cup from the shelve. "It was so cute, see tonight its the one year anniversary with Emily and wanted to have fun with her."
"That's my boy!" Jade said proudly "Looks like I'm not the only one who is getting laid tonight."
A cup of coffee hits the floor.
"Wha... What?"
"Are you that blind Tor?... It's their one year anniversary" Jade said amused "What do horny teenagers do after they been dating for so long? They blow each other's brains out! Come on Vega, we did that when we were his age!"
Tori's left eye began to twitch uncontrollably.
"But he just said there was food involved..."
"He was probably being subtle." Jade shrugs "I mean for all we know he could use strawberries and cream on that girlfriend of his."
Tori ran out of the kitchen and straight into the front door faster than the road runner ever could, hoping to catch her son before he left the house.
"ANTHONY WEST!"
But it was too late, for he already had left the driveway in his car.
Jade walked calmly out the door, stirring a cup of joe in her hands and took a sip calmly "Guess our boy turns into a man tonight."
Tori however could only think back to a far more simpler time.
Back when she was fixing Tony's tricycle.
"Here son, you can ride it now."
"Thank you mommy!"
The toddler got on his red trike and sloppily began to ride it.
"There you go!" The singer cheered "My little man is driving!"
The memory faded away once more as Tori now saw her son driving towards the path to manhood.
And she cried.
Seeing the distress on her wife's face, Jade held her in her arms.
"We knew this day was coming Tor."
"It still sucks Jade."
"Very... But you should be proud."
"That my baby boy grew up so fast?"
"That we raised a good man."
And Tori was proud of that.
"My boy..."
Guess Tori telling Tony how her first year anniversary went wasn't the best idea.
If you remember, I had a scene back in my "50 Shades of Jori" fic in which Tori was so embarrassed when she farted during her first time that she was in the closet, in here she lied to Anthony by reversing the roles between she and Jade... Because she sure wasn't about to admit her embarrassing mistake... Also, Tori was unaware that like in a previous chapter she was turning things in an awkward direction.
Also, Tori was a little naive in here but let's be fair, she isn't ready to let her son go just yet.
