Chapter 3: Revelations
They headed back into the livingroom the unable to hid they happiness that both of them felt. Scotty was extatic, He finaly had Lilly Rush as his girlfriend something he had been dreaming of every he started working with her. Lilly in turn had finally thought she found someone she could trust not to walk out on her when things got tough.
"Oh good was just about to get you two, Dinner is ready" Mike said
"Great I am starvin'" Scotty replied " Had a big workout this afternoon" He beamed and Lilly blushed looking at the floor.
He lead Lilly over to the enormous table laden with delious looking food. "Ma is the best cook in the entire world you love this" He said handing her a plate and grabbing one for himself. As Lilly looked over the dished trying to decide what she was going to eat Scotty had already heaped large amount of food on his.
"You've got enough food to fed six people there Scotty" She teased and he chuckled.
"Hey gotta build up my strength for tonight" He whispered suggestively on her ear. She blushed and playfully punched his arm when she noticed his parents were standing right behind them.
"You do relise your parents are standing right behind us right?" she asked and he blushed and turned around to she his mother giving him a knowing look
"Hey Ma..er..looks good" He pointed at the food on his plate before moving away. Lilly laughed at his embaresment and after loading up some food on her plate he moved off to join him a on the couch. Lilly ate in silence watching her looking around the room at the numerous people all chatting away happily to each other in spanish. Although she knew basic spanish she had no hope of following the conversations, Scotty leant over and kissed her cheek.
"You okay Lil" He asked her and she smiled and nodded.
"Just like listening" She said and he grined.
"I translate for you if you want"
"Nah, its okay" Lilly stood up and carried her empty plate into the kitchen where she saw Rosa starting to wash the countless dishes.
"Dinner was fantastic Mrs Valens" Lilly said putting her plate down
"Thankyou dear, But please call me Rosa" The old women replied beaming up at her.
"Can I help wash up?" She asked
"No dear you are a guest" Rosa replied " But please sit down and we can get to know each other" Rosa jestured towards the table and Lilly sank into it.
"Tell about your self" Rosa replied drying her hands and sitting down beside. Lilly sighed she didn't really feel comfortable sharing information with anyone but this was Scotty's mother and if her relationship with him was going to work she had to try.
"Well what do you wanna know?" She asked causiously Rosa smiled at her.
"You don't really feel comfortable sharing do you" Rosa replied reading Lilly's insecure body language.
"No, but its fine I mean we should get to know each other for Scotty's sake so ask me anything" Lilly awaited to be questioned starting to feel like one of her suspects.
"Do you have any sibling?" Rosa asked
"A younger sister.. Christina..we aren't close haven't spoken to her is a few years I don't even know where she is" She shifted uncomfortably in her chair remebering the last time they spoke. When she thought maybe could put the past behind them until she found out she was sleeping with Scotty. She had eventually forgiven Scotty but she told her sister to get out of her life for good and Chris had seemed to obey her.
"Oh" Rosa answered and taking in her change of mood she knew better not to push for details.
"Are you close to your parents" Lilly paused before anwering
"Well my father left when I was little and my mother died a few months ago of liver disease."
"Oh you poor thing, you have not had it easy my dear" Lilly let out a shakey breath and sniffed a single tear rolling down her cheek "Don't cry mi hija" a warm loving hand came to rest on her shoulder, Lilly look up at her. Scotty came into the kitchen to see what happened to his girlfriend and he saw her crying and his mother comforting her.
"Whats..going on" He asked a worried look came over his face glancing between his mother and Lilly, Lilly wiped her eyes and glanced over at him.
"Its nothing" she stood up and walked over to him "I am just tired" she kissed his cheek and wiped a tear off her face, Knowing she was not telling him the entire truth but knew better than to push it.
"You wanna go" He asked her softly
"No, I can't ask you to leave your own birthday early" She said sheepishly
"Nah Lil its fine" he kissed her forehead" he kissed her forehead " Ma, Lil and I are gonna go " His mother nodded and moved to kiss her son.
" Usted toma el cuidado de este mi hijo que es bueno para usted y usted y es bueno para ella" She told him and Scotty smiled at her.
" si, Mama que conozco y voy a" he replied kissing his mother on the cheek and leading lilly out.
"What did she say to you?" Lilly asked curiously
"She told me that we were good for each other" Scotty smiled taking her hand
"What did you tell her?"
"I told her that I knew that already" He pressed a kiss her cheek and she moved into his warmth and sighed
They arrived back at his apartment a few minutes later and they fell onto the couch both exhusted.
"Wanna watch some tv Lil" Scooty looked over at her and she yawned.
"No I think I might go to bed...you comming" she asked him
" Be there in a minute baby" he said as she stood up and moved towards the bedroom and he sighed his mothers words whirling around in his head, Lilly was good for him and he knew without a shadow of a doubt that he loved her with all his heart. He got up and moved to follow Lilly to the bedroom.
