“Tammy, I don’t know why you are here. Thank you for your apology about my mom. But when it comes to Chris, that is his shit to deal with. No I don’t like you, you are a pushy little slut. You tried to blackmail your way into our lives and I can’t forgive you for that. If you truly loved Chris you would have never said a word about our mother, our parents are off limits to everyone.” I have to take a breath to calm myself down.
“I know and I’m sorry about that, but I am in love with him. Just seeing him sends my stomach into butterfly fits. I remember how we use to sit outside and he would hold me close.”
“And how you snuck into our house for a booty call.” I say cutting her off.
“It wasn’t like that!” She screams at me. “I love him damn it! I’m trying to be nice here why can’t you see that?”
“Because when I look at you I see the woman who talked crap about me to my face. I see the woman who I have had to throw out of my house three times already. And I see the slut from the strip club who tried to talk crap about me there too. But my band brothers wouldn’t let you, would they? They are here today too, want me to go get Scot so you two can ‘talk’ again?” I smirk at her.
“No,” She says quietly. “I am sorry Flower, I hope in time you can find it in your heart forgive me. Thank you for talking to me.”
Just the way she looked like she had been beaten down about killed me, I don’t know why but it just did. I was hard on her, and yes she deserved it but looking at her like that ripped my heart out. As she turned I reached for her arm, she gasped when I touched her. This made me laugh.
“Don’t you want to talk to Chris?” I ask her. Her face lit up.
“Really? You would let me?”
“Sure, but only if you promise to chill out. I don’t want to hear any more crap about me coming out of your mouth. I don’t want you upsetting him, and I don’t want you showing up here without notice ever again. I can’t stop you and Chris from being friends, or whatever, but I can stop you from popping in on us. So don’t push me. Today you guys can talk out here, but not for too long, we have guests.”
“Thank you.” She whispers trying to hold back her tears. I roll my eyes and walk back in the house, she stayed were she was, smart girl. I walk up to Chris and lay it all out on the table for him.
“Chris, she wants to talk to you. She said she was sorry and some other shit but I don’t want to get into it now. She is still in love with you, so be nice. I told her off then almost sent her packing. But didn’t have the heart too, I told her she had to cut the crap talking, and that she couldn’t just pop in on us whenever she wanted. She had to give us a little notice before she came by. I think you two need to talk about what happened. But don’t take to long, or I’ll send one of your brothers to get you.” He just nods in shock and walks outside to talk to her.
“What the hell? You are letting them talk?” Justin asks.
“Yup.” I sigh and lay my head on his chest when he wraps me in his arms. “Don’t get me wrong, I still hate her but something tells me she hates what she did to us more. I don’t want to think about all this right now, if he is not back in here in ten minutes send Scot out to get him. She is scared of Scot.” I giggle as we walk into the dinning room.
“Are you okay?” Rachael comes and hugs me. Everyone is already sitting down waiting on us.
“I’m fine, it’s a long story.”
“They told us already,” Mike said “I can’t believe she would have the guts to come back after all she did.”
“She is in love with Chris, and I think she realized that what she said about her having to play mother to me because mine wasn’t there was a kill switch for her. But she looked broken, like she had lost the only good thing in her life.” I let out a sigh and shake my head.
“Come on lets eat.” Justin says and pulls my chair out for me.
“Scot I’m sending you after Chris if he is not back here in a few minutes.” I smile at him.
“Fine by me, I would love to scare the crap out of her again!” Dave, Scot, Justin and I start laughing, everyone else just stares at us. I guess when the boys told them about Tammy they left out the part about the strip club. I know Rachael knows about it but she didn’t give anything away. I wonder how much Mike knows about our life, Justin tells his mom almost everything but does he tell his dad too?
Chris walks in five minutes later, I can see he is upset so I ask to talk to him for a minute. We walk to my room and shut the door. Before we start talking I give him a big hug and tell him I love him.
“So, are you okay?” I ask as we sat down on the bed.
“Yeah, she told me everything she told you. She is still in love with me and would like us to work on a friendship. I told her I didn’t think it was a good idea. That after what she said about you I didn’t think I could forgive her. She begged me to think about it, telling
