Maya POV:
"Hanna, where is uncle Caleb?"
"he back home I'm here for work. I decided to come see my favorite girl."
"oh stop it." Gabby said waving Hanna off.
"no please stop it." I said laughing.
"God you have rubbed off on my baby." Hanna said pushing me away grabbing Gabby. "Stay away from you mama." she said kissing Gabby's cheek.
"Hanna, that's my baby she can never stay away from me." I said sticking my tongue out at her. "come here my baby."
"No she is mines. Stay away."
"Gab come to mommy." Emily said and Gabby ran over hugging her. "She is my baby." Emily said smugly and kissed Gabby forehead. "come help me make lunch baby girl." Emily walked away sticking her tongue out at us as she walked away.
"I can find some uses for that tongue since you want to keep it out!" I yelled to her and I heard her laugh while Hanna gagged.
"you do realize your daughter can hear you."
"I didn't say anything nasty." I tilted my head smirking.
"I missed you and your antics." Hanna said walking over giving me a hug.
"you sure that's all you miss." she laughed light before shooting me a bird.
"that was a long time ago and we don't need to speak about it."
"I was joking. I am madly in love with your friend." I said falling down on the couch.
"you better be." she said sitting across from me on the couch. "So when are you two gonna' give me another niece or nephew."
"I don't know. I was going to ask you the same thing."
"yeah Caleb is too. he wants to have a baby but I don't think I want kids."
"why?"
"I don't think I will make a good mom. You and Emily are amazing. Hell Spencer is but me no."
"Hanna don't be silly you are amazing with gabby."
"yeah that's because she is my niece. I get to spoil her and send her home to her moms. it's your job to give her discipline."
"hanna, you will be a great mother. you are loving and caring. Plus you can give a child a stable home and provide for it. Caleb can do all the disciplining."
"yeah I guess that's true but I don't know. if it happens it happens. I'm not going to say im going to plan it." she said shrugging before changing the subject. "When are you two going to have a baby?"
"Em wants one now."
"And you don't?"
"No I do but she is never home and barely pays attention to Gabby. why would I want another child in the mix of that?"
"you know she is trying."
"I know that's why when we move back home we are going to try." Hanna screamed jumping into my arms hugging me. "Hanna." I laughed as she pulled away.
"I'm so happy."
"I'm scared to ask what part of that sentence made you so happy."
"you guys are having a baby and moving back."
"Mama, Hanna lunch is ready." Gabby yelled before running back to the kitchen.
"My baby is ten." I whined a little standing up from the couch.
"And you're not even thirty yet." hanna said hitting my shoulder before pushing me towards the kitchen. "Let's go im hungry." I laughed and started walking.
"You're always hungry fatty."
"Emily, tell her to take it back." Hanna whined as we walked in the kitchen.
"Whatever you said say sorry." I mumbled a quiet sorry and kicked Hanna under the table. "Maya!" Emily said raising an eye brow. I let my shoulders drop and look down at my lunch. Emily made some soup something simple to hold us off until dinner. "Act like adults ladies please." Gabby started to laugh and I looked at her and she put a spoonful of soup in her mouth.
We ate our lunch and walked into the living room to talk for awhile. The doorbell rung and I went to stand up but Gabby jumped up and ran to the door. "I guess it's for her." I said sitting back down.
"Hey Gabby, can you come out?" I hear a boys voice.
"Oh hell no." Hanna and I both said standing up walking over to the door. There was a little boy with a curly Mohawk and light brown skin. He looked about Gabby's age.
"Gabrielle?" I asked and she looked up at me. "Who is this?"
"Its my friend Dominic. he lives over there." she pointed down the street. "Can I go outside and play mama?"
"Go ahead baby girl." Emily said walking up behind us and shutting the door after Gabby walked out.
"Emily!"
"What?"
"She's outside with a boy."
"Okay, what the hell are they going to do? They are ten."
"Emily?" Hanna asked and I pointed to Hanna.
"You two need to realize that just because a boy comes over and ask her to play outside doesn't mean anything. We are about to move back to Philly and I want her to play with her friends here as much as possible."
Gabby POV:
"Which one was your mom?" Dominic asked as we walked to the backyard.
"The Black and Asian ones." I said sitting down on the swing.
"Do you like having two moms?"
"Yeah it's cool. I never meet my dad but I love it just being me and my moms. we get to do all the girl things I want to do."
"Do your mom know who your dad is?"
"I'm adopted. I meet my birth mom not too long ago. I don't really like her but I did get to meet my brothers and sisters. which was really cool because I always wanted siblings. But that when I found out my dad was dead."
"I'm sorry." he said looking away.
"No its fine. I got to meet my abuela and she had pictures of him so I do know what he looks like."
"So your moms let you talk to your real family?"
"they are my real family, but yes I get to talk to them and visit them. They want me to know where I come from."
"That's cool." we swung for a little while in silence before Dominic spoke up again. "I wish I was the only child."
"why? I wish I had a little brother or sister."
"My parents don't pay attention to me. It always about my little brother and sisters. But now my mom having another baby."
"I know it must suck."
"yeah its whatever." he shrugged pushing his legs in and out to get higher. "Hey, I'm sorry everyone is so mean to you at school."
I shrugged and stopped swinging. "It's okay I don't care. They are just jealous."
"Everyone is mean to you because of Jennifer and her friends. They told everyone to be mean to you."
"Jennifer is stupid and she is mad that I'm smarter than her."
"and cuter." I looked at him and smiled; blushing.
"do you want to meet my moms?"
"I get to meet Emaya?" his eyes grew big.
"no you get to meet my mom. Emaya is only when she is on stage."
"Yeah." we got off the swings and ran to the front of the house. I pushed the door open and ran to the living room.
"Mommies and Aunt Hanna, this is Dominic. Dominic these are my moms and aunt."
"Hi. Nice to meet you." he said smiling.
"You are a little cutie pie." Hanna said smiling and then looking at me winking. "Em, isn't he just adorable?"
"Yes he is."
"Look at those dimples." Hanna gushed.
"Stop. you're embarrassing him." I said laughing. "Can we go play in my room?"
Maya POV:
"Can we go play in my room?" I stopped staring at the little boy and looked at Gabby.
"No, you can go play in the den." she shrugged her shoulder and walked out the living room with Dominic close behind.
"Babe, why couldn't they play in her room?"
"No she is in that age where boys are cute and I don't want a boy upstairs in her room now or never."
"You do realize she eventually going to have a boyfriend." Emily said.
"Or a girlfriend." Hanna said. "Can't keep everyone out her room." I glared at Hanna a flicked her off.
"She's growing up too fast. I want my baby back." I pouted and Emily gave me a hug,
"I do too but its been a beautiful process watching her grow." I nodded and sat down on the couch pouting thinking about my babygirl growing up. She's ten now and in a few year eighteen.
Later that night….
I walked upstairs to make sure Gabby was in bed asleep. I open her door and she turned over really fast. "I caught you." I said laughing a little bit. she turned back over and looked at me. "Why aren't you asleep?"
"I don't know." I shut her door almost all the way and walk over climbing into bed with her cuddling her close to my body.
"You're getting so big baby."
"I know mama."
"you want me to sing you asleep?"
"yes please like old times." she said with a sparkle in her eyes that I could see with the help of the moonlight shining through the window.
"what song?"
"Adele—make you feel my love." I smiled knowing that was one of her favorites.
"That's not a bed time song."
"I know mama but it my favorite." she said smiling. I cleared my throat and started singing to her. As the song came to an end I looked down to see her fast asleep against my chest. I thought about moving and going to bed myself. but instead I laid there and soaked up this moment. My baby girl wasn't a baby anymore.
A/N: OMG she updated! She's still alive!
Sorry for the long wait for an update. I had a little free time to finish up this chapter before I have to head to school on a beautiful Sunday instead of spending the day with someone of my choosing.
My neglect to my stories is just from not feeling like writing, writers block, being tired and not coming home till like 10 everyday for weeks. but I do write ideas that when I have some time I type up quickly. All the stories have like a few hundred ones to them but I refuse to update it with anything less than a 1000 words.
Graduation is only a few months away for me… THANK GOD!
I will hopefully update a lot more towards late April early May when I have more free time. But March is completely busy. then April comes and I have to study for End of course test and finals.
I'm so sorry you guys. Thank you to all my dedicated readers who are still here for me. I'm sorry for neglecting you.
If you have any questions feel free to PM me.
I hope you enjoyed this little update.
Until next time….
