Chapter 5
"What in the world is going on here?" Kate demanded as she came in the apartment.
"It's between me and Sami, mom."
"No, I don't think so. What game are you up to Sami?" Kate turned on her.
"I'm no-"
"She's not up to anything. It's time for you to leave."
"Lucas, honey, we had plans tonight-"
"Well, they've been cancelled. Will is home and Carrie and Austin-"
"Wait a minute. Will is home? Where is he?"
"I'm right here Grandma," Will said as he came out of his room. "Why don't you and I go out to dinner? Mom and dad need to talk."
"But-"
"Unless of course," Will looked up at her trembling slightly, "you don't want to spend time with me."
Kate shook. "You are so your mother's son," which caused laughter from both Sami and Lucas.
"Is that a yes or a no?"
"Fine." On their way out, Kate turned to face Sami and Lucas. "I will find what you are up to Sami and when I do…" She left with the empty threat.
Once the door was closed, Sami turned to Lucas. "You were going to kick her out. You were honestly going to kick her out."
"I meant what I told her. I don't want her interfering with us."
"That never made you kick her out before."
"Maybe it's time I started kicking her out."
"Maybe you should have told her to go to hell a long time ago."
"Maybe."
"Well."
"So, before my mom interrupted us-"
"It doesn't matter Lucas. It's in the past. And like I said last night, you're still married to my sister and I'm with E.J. There's no point in bringing it up."
Sami turned to go back to cleaning up the dishes.
"Carrie and I are going to get a divorce." He said coming up behind her.
Sami shivered as he put his arms around her and began kissing her neck.
"Don't do this Lucas," she pleaded and moved away from him. "You wanted me to move on. Let me." Then she fled to her room and locked the door behind her.
