Life over the last few months has been great. School got out last week and now I have all five of my children home all the time. Seth only goes home two or three times a week, to sleep and the only other time he leaves is to go on patrol. Now that all of my children are healthy and happy they are really enjoying being all back together.
I know Paul said he was not expecting Nick and Nate to treat him like a dad just like the baby's but I know deep down he did. When it didn't happen he was upset about it. At first they were rude and disrespectful towards him but I put that to rest quickly. Now they kind of treat him like a big brother. After the first couple of weeks they started to go to Paul if they needed brotherly advice. I have noticed they kind of treat Sam more like a dad and he has seemed to love the roll. Paul has with time accepted his role in their lives and they have even been going to him when they need a brother's advice. They also go to Sam for info or advice I just would not know. I know they have secrets that only Sam knows and some only Paul knows and I am sure there are some all of them know. They also have their uncles, both here and back home, and Pop's if they need him. I wish I knew some of the secrets but know not to mess with something that is working.
Since the boys came Paul and I have been going to do something together every Friday. Sometimes it's a full date in Seattle or Port Angles but other times it's just a little bit of time at the dinner. We have also been talking about someday getting married. Paul wants a lot more kids but I don't. I would not mind having one or two more. We both want a small wedding, but with sissy back in my life and having a pride and two packs, there is no way. My home now has seven master suites after the packs and family got done remodeling. So each kid, including Seth, got their very own room. Right now so do Paul and I have separate rooms until we are married?
Right now all four of my guys are out patrolling the only ones home is Maurice and Pam and they are taking a room in their own rooms. I am currently cooking because all the guys and of course Leah and their mates are coming here. I am hosting tonight's dinner to give Em a break. I was brought out of my thoughts when I felt warm strong arms pull me close to his chest. I decided to tease him. "Oh Emb, I have missed you so much, but Paul will be home any minute now." He growled and spun me around "I knew that you two where closer than normal." I smacked his chest than pulled out of his hold. I walked around the corner to the play room and shook my head. "Boys, showers now then get in the kitchen and help me cook." They were going to argue until I put my hands on my hips "Yes mam" they kissed my cheek and hurried up to their rooms. I turned around and looked at Paul, he looked like he was pissed; dang that boy can be jealous. He looked me in the eye "Embry is not allowed here anymore," he roared. I shook my head "First off I was kidding, second he is my friend, and third this is my house so yes he is, and most importantly," I went back to work. He came up and stood next to me "What is most important?" I turned towards and took his face in my hands kissed him than said "I only love you."
He tried to kiss me but I would not allow that after he yelled at me. I pushed him away and pointed to the stair "Upstairs and shower than get down here so the house is ready." As he hit the top step it hit me that Seth was not here. "Where's Seth" Nate came into the kitchen toweling off his hair "He had to go home. His mom said she was sending a search party out for him soon." I chuckled then grabbed him into a hug "Well, I don't know how she has stood being away from him for so long I know you better never do that." He kissed my cheek and chuckled "I will never be far mom," he sighed "Do I really have to cook?" I laughed "You could clean" I stated. He looked at me and slumped in the chair "Can't I just go play my game." I shook my head and signed pick one or I will. He huffed "Fine, then I will clean but Paul has to help me." I nodded my head in agreement "Start with the play room," I knew what was coming "And I do not want to hear you did not make the mess, now go," I pointed in that direction. He got up and slowly walked to the play room. When he finally was in I said "And no playing games, clean."
Nick came down next and started helping me cook. I was so glad at least one of them liked to cook. "Mom am I making my stew." I smiled and signed 'That was my plan' he smiled and started cooking. I was trying to use sign more so none of us forgot any of it and so Paul could learn. He came down the steps and started walking towards me and I pointed towards the play room "Clean" is all I said before I went back to work. He stood their pouting for a few minutes and I cleared my throat. Nick looked between the two of us and said "Ok, what did you do" he looked at Paul. I laughed "It's really none of your business but he did not use his brain." With that Paul stalked towards the play room while we finished cooking.
I had my ear plugs in and my iPod on as I chopped and diced stuff up. I was somewhere in the middle of my own mind when I heard Nick say "No way, not unless I get a fifty." I took my earphones out and looked at him. He sighed "Nate just made a deal with Paul and he included me and I don't think it's fair." Ugh "Nate, out here now," after thinking for a second "You too Paul." They both stepped into the room at the same time "What?" Nick looked at me and sighed then went back to work. "First off" I pointed at my son "Why are you making deals that include your brother without asking him first. Second," I pointed at Paul "You are supposed to be the adult here correct."
They told me that they made a deal that Paul would finish the living room and family room if the boys would take his Saturday patrol. I sighed "Ok, I understand but for making a deal without even asking your brother you get to clean both rooms yourself and then go on patrol as well," Nate nodded and got up to go clean. I turned and glared at my mate "Are you trying to literally sleep in the dog house." He shook his head no. I was reminded of how much parenting he never had when I looked at him now he looked like a scolded five year old that was trying not to let out how upset they really are. "You will give Nick the fifty and you get the honor of cleaning up the back yard."
Nate and Seth both walked back into the kitchen about the same time. Seth kissed my cheek and asked "Anything I need to do." Nate said he had finished the rooms so I told the two of them to go get the tables and chairs out of the garage and start setting some chairs inside and the tables with chairs outside.
Within no time the packs where both their and my house and yard was full. Of course Em and Emb noticed right away that something was wrong. I never saw Ness till she pulled on my shirt. I looked down and smiled "Hey sweets," I said as I picked her up. "Hi, are you ok you look upset," she smiled and kissed my cheek. "I'm fine" she frowned "I am just trying to figure something out ok." She nodded "Ok, but Uncle Jazz said as soon as you can call him" I raised my eyebrows "He said he sensed something from you when he dropped me off." I put her down and shook my head.
I called Jazz and told him I would be fine and asked if MeiMei and my sisters could meet me I needed girl talk. I went over and hugged Emb and told him the same and he told me if I needed him just call. Paul gave me a dirty look after but I gave it right back. I gathered up Em, Kim, Leah and Melanie. Melanie was new to the group because her mate was Darrin who was new to Jakes pack. We walked through the woods to the baseball clearing. Once we got their we were joined by my surrogate mother and sisters. We sat around and talked about what had happened and they told me I was in my right. They told me to talk it out with Paul later. We talked about everything and all gave out advice for hours. We were so wrapped up in our thoughts that we all jumped and then started to scream when Eddie and Sam came through the trees. Bella looked at me "And you think yours is bad." We all laughed as she stormed up to him and started yelling. The rest of us left and headed home and I felt a lot better.
