Chapter 12: Uncles

"When Uncle Timmy and Uncle Jay get here," Tyler babbled one day, Julie nodded, "I'm going to show them how good I can skate now, and then I'm going to show them all the pictures of baby Cammie."

"Uh huh," Julie nodded. Two of her brothers were coming out for a visit and Tyler was overly excited. Charlie was a little on edge about it because it was the first time since they were together that he was seeing her family. "Are you done?" She pointed to his breakfast.

"Yup," he said and Julie took the plate and put it in the sink. "Are Uncle Jay and Uncle Timmy going to come see baby Cammie?"

"Tyler," Julie said, "your Uncles are not going to go see your sister. She's not their family." Tyler frowned.

"Well, then why are they coming to visit?" He asked.

"Because they," she sighed, "they want to see me and you and Charlie."

"Charlie's not their family either," Tyler pointed out.

"No, but he might be someday." Julie said. Tyler brightened, and then Charlie walked out. "Good morning."

"Good morning," Charlie kissed her.

"Charlie!" Tyler groaned. "You promised!"

"Sorry buddy," Charlie laughed. "You ready for school?"

"Almost," Tyler said, pushing off his chair. "I just hafta get my shoes. Uncle Jay and Uncle Timmy are coming today."

"I know," Charlie said. "Go get your shoes on and we'll get you to school, alright."

"Alright," Tyler walked into his room. Charlie looked at Julie who smiled and he kissed her again for real this time. She whimpered.

"Good morning," he whispered.

"Morning," she blushed. They kissed again. "Mm, thanks for last night."

"No, thank you," he laughed. "That was amazing. You are a talented woman." She giggled. "So, the Gaffney boys are coming."

"Just two of them," she said. "Timmy and Jay like you Charlie, they always did in high school."

"I wasn't sleeping with you in high school," he shook his head. "I have sisters, I know how it works."

"You have much younger than you half sisters," she laughed. "One of them is fifteen and the other is thirteen, if people were sleeping with them you should hate them." He smiled and kissed her. "I love you and you make me happy. My brothers will just be happy that I'm happy, trust me." He nodded.

"Or maybe they'll kill me," he said. "They might kill me."

"Who's going to kill you?" Tyler said.

"No one," Julie said. "No one is going to kill Charlie. Come on," she pushed Tyler out. "School time."

"Have a good day," Charlie called after them. "I love you both." Julie looked back at him and smiled.

Julie looked at Tyler as they sat in the car outside of his school.

"Do you want me to walk you in?" She asked.

"No," he said. "Are you picking me up today?"

"You betcha," she nodded. He nodded.

"So you're not going to work?" He asked.

"No," she said. "Not today, not this whole week while Uncle Timmy and Uncle Jay are here." He nodded. "Is something wrong baby?"

"When are we going to get a house?" He asked. Julie looked at him. "You said that we were going to get a house and a yard," Julie sighed. "When?"

"I don't know when," she said. "Soon, I hope." She kissed him. "I love you, have a good day."

"I love you too," Tyler said walking out. The teacher walked over to the window. Julie bit her bottom lip and rolled it down.

"Ms. Gaffney," he said. She smiled. Mr. Thurston was about twenty seven and as good with kids as she'd ever seen any man. He was also remarkably attractive, possibly made more so by the fact that he was doubly taboo, being Tyler's teacher and she was in a serious committed and loving relationship. Not that this ever stopped them from flirting.

"Mr. Thurston," she smiled. "Is everything alright?"

"I just wanted to talk to you about Tyler," he said. "Do you have a minute?" Julie nodded and got out of the car.

"Is everything OK?" She said. "He's been really moody lately, he's very concerned about his new big brother status."

"Oh no Tyler's fine," he shook his head. "He's a bright kid, very social, we all adore him."

"Aw, you like my kid a whole lot," Julie smiled. "That's sweet. But I really didn't have to get out of the car for that."

"No," he said, "it's more about, look um, you're not married right?"

"Oh," she blushed, "no, I'm not, I've never been, I mean, I was in high school when I had Tyler, and his father and I just, I mean, there was no way we were getting married. I do have a boyfriend though, we live together, and we're going to get married, someday, I mean, eventually, once Tyler gets used to us as a family. Although he's already probably used to it, I think he's more used to it than I am." She said. "And I mean, if the concern is the cohabitation thing, my father doesn't like it either, but Charlie and I don't share a bedroom."

"I know," he said. "I mean, not in that much detail, but I'm aware that you live with your boyfriend, and that you were in high school when you had Tyler. I mean, look at you, you're," Julie swallowed, "you're clearly, I mean," she looked at him. He sighed. "That's what I wanted to talk to you about. Tyler's socializing is fine, it's yours that the school is concerned about."

"Mine?" Julie said. "Like, I don't do enough of the PTA type stuff?" He nodded. "There are going to be angry soccer moms calling me soon aren't there?"

"Most certainly," he said. "But this is Minnesota, so they're hockey moms, and they're much scarier. I thought I'd warn you."

"I appreciate the warning," she said. "I have to go."

"Sure," he nodded. "Thanks." She got back into the car and drove home. She banged her head against the steering wheel, and sat for a minute. Then she walked upstairs and opened the door.

"Hey little sister," a tall blonde guy said from the couch. She smiled and walked over and hugged him around the waist. "Ugh, you OK kiddo?"

"Shut up and hug me, Timmy," she mumbled. He laughed.

"Hey," another guy walked out of the bathroom, "that bathroom is unreal! Major props to Jules for finally finding a guy who wasn't such a lose…" he stopped, "Hey Julie."

"Hi Jay," she said. "A douchey teacher just told me that I'm a shitty mother."

"Oh, it's one of those days," he sat down. "Claudia had one those, she told her to go fuck herself." Julie laughed. She wished she could be as bold as her sister in law who never took anyone's crap.

"How did you two get in here?" She asked.

"Charlie let us in," Timmy said. "He was wearing a really nice suit. Is your boyfriend in the mob?"

"He's a stock broker," she shook her head. "You were nice weren't you? He thinks you're going to kill him." They grinned at each other.

"I guess then we shouldn't have told him we were going to kill him, huh Tim?" Jay said.

"I didn't say anything," Jay looked at Julie. "I was pretty sure he was in the mob." She laughed. "Where's the munchkin?"

"School," she said. They nodded and Tim went to the fridge and took out a beer. "Timmy, its 9:30 in the morning."

"Oh, right," Tim said. "Do you have any bloody mary mix?" Julie and Jay looked at each other and rolled their eyes.
