Here is the newest chapter. It's Leah centric, but don't worry I will get back to Seth. Yes I know this one is short but it felt right to stop where I did. I hope you like it!
Chapter 6: I Forgot to Remember to Forget
Seth POV
"Are you sure about this Leah? Mom can be a force of her own."
"Seth, we are here. Mom deserves to know." We were both standing on the sidewalk facing our house. The house where we grew up. The roof where I fell from and broke my arm. The tree that I ran into with my bike when I was 9. Nothing has changed but it feels like everything has.
"Uncle Seth, how come we are just standing here? Why don't we just go into the house you and mommy are staring at?" Alex looked up at me with curious eyes.
"You make a good point Alex." I turned to Leah, "Let's go in."
She nodded. We walked up the steps and rang the door bell. It seemed like the right thing to do. It's been to long, we couldn't just walk in.
The door opened and moms head pokes out. Her unusually comforting head. I had forgotten how much I missed her until now. "Seth! Leah! Oh my Lord. Look at you two." She ran up and hugged us.
"Mom, it's good to see you too." I answered hugging her back.
We pulled away and mom finally spotted Alex. She knelt down so she was almost eye level with him. "And who might you be?"
Leah was going to say something but was too late. "I am Alexander Quil Clearwater-Ateara. But you can call me Alex."
Mom looked shocked. She stood up and looked Leah in the eye. "I am guess he is yours since there is no female Ateara that Seth could have procreated with."
Leah nodded looking down. "Yes mom. But if you knew the whole story then-"
"The whole story. The whole story Leah? You had a child, my grandchild, with out telling me. You had a child, my grandchild, without being married first. You had a child, my grandchild, all alone with no one there to help."
At that point I grabbed Alex. "We will be at the beach if you need anything." And I left Leah alone to sort things out with mom.
"Uncle Seth, who was that nice lady that you mommy were talking to? And where are we going?"
"Well Alex, that lady in there is your grandma. She is mine and your mommy's mommy. And we are going to the beach. Does that sound fun?"
"Yeah! Let's go to the beach!"
Alex and I hung out at the beach throwing rocks, splashing water, and building sand castles. Before I knew it I saw Leah approaching us.
"How was it with mom?" I asked her curious.
"Okay. After I got her calmed down, I told her the whole story. I think she wants to officially meet her grandson. But I thought I would wait a little while longer."
I nodded. "One down one to go." I looked up hearing someone approaching. "Speak of the devil."
Leah looked up too to find Quil Ateara himself.
Again, it was short. But I still want to know what you think so review! The next part should hopefully be up tomorrow, but I am not sure I will get it done when I can since prom is this weekend.
