“We’re going to Disney World,” I state, not as a question.
“Yes, how’d you know?”
“Other than the scenery, you both need to talk quieter when you’re planning a surprise,” I point at him and Thorn with a chuckle.
“Thorn said you’ve always wanted to go. I hope you like the surprise,” he snorts.
“You’re too much,” I say as I pat his arm.
“You might think so. But wait until after you meet my family,” he says.
“Come again?” My eyes widen.
“My family is coming, too. I have nieces and nephews that want to see Disney. They just so happen to be in town,” he says.
“Oh,” I have no idea what to say.
“My treat for all of you and them,” he says.
“You must do really well at the gym,” I mutter.
He takes my hand as he laughs, “I do.” He kisses my knuckles.
Am I ready to meet his family? Guess we’re going to find out.
Holden
We find out on the way that I’m only a year older than Briar. I think she likes older men though since Kingston is in his early thirties. I love how she does engage with everyone and she likes to play peacemaker. I do know I will never be able to compete with Kingston, he’s the real deal. I know he can give her comforts with his money, but I know I have love to give.
Kingston
I park in the lot and rush around to help her out as the others jump out and start for the entrance.
I see my mother and wave as my sisters and their husbands join them.
I kiss my mom on the cheek, “Mom, this is Briar and Thorn.” I introduce them to my mother.
“Briar is my girlfriend. Thorn is her brother.”
I just labeled our relationship.
Shit, what if she doesn’t…..
I look at her smiling and I think she’s okay with me calling her my girlfriend.
“Briar, this is my mom, Gwendolyn. My sister Tana and her husband Viktor and my nieces, Samantha and Skyler. Over here is my sister Embry and her husband Remo and their sons, Donatello and Timothy.
“Nice to meet all of you,” she smiles at all of them.
“Call me Gwen. Where have you been hiding her, Kingston? She’s quite lovely,” my mom takes her hands and beams at her.
Briar blushes.
Then my mother steps over to Thorn.
“Nice to meet you,” she gives him a brief hug and I stifle a laugh. Thorn doesn’t know what to do.
“Hi,” he waves at all of them.
