His Firecracker

“Conall answer the door please.” Dee says to her mate.

“Hi, how may I help you?” He asks the two people standing at the door.

“I am Bethany and this is my son Colby.” Bethanie tells him.


“Hey girl, come on in, don’t mind him I told him to answer the door.” Dee tells her bestie.

“Hi Aunt Dee, how are you?” Colby asks.

“Very good, how about you all?”

“We are good.”

“Come on in, this is just a small gathering to introduce family members to other friends and family. No worries, no love connection here.” Dee teases Bethanie.

“Hey guys, this is my friend Bethanie and her son Colby and this is Mathe and Cassie, Conall, Lachlan, Evander and Damhan.” She introduces the lot to each other.

They all shake Bethanie’s and Colby’s hands and only one say, ‘mate’ when he shakes her hand. Who will that one person be? Is it Lachlan, Evander or Damhan?

Bethanie hears him say, ’Mate’ but not sure if she heard what he said was accurate she just by passed him and continue to shake the other’s hands. Dee heard one of the brothers’s say, ‘Mate’ to her friend but did not pay attention to which one it was.

“Did he just say, ‘MATE’ to me Dee?”

“Um, yes one of them did but not sure which one though, I did not pay attention to which one it was. Why?”

“I just thought it was weird he would say that as he does not know me from Adam.”

“Those boys do tend to do that at times.”

“But I have a boyfriend Dee.”


“That doesn’t matter to them. What matters now is will you accept him or reject him? I would get to know him as friends first then make your decision. They are great guys.”

Oh this is going to go so well between these two people and she will give him a run for his money for sure.

“Bethanie, yes?” He asks her.

“Yes, and you are? Sorry I do not remember your name.”

“It’s not that important right now, but would you go on a date with me? Please? So that we can get to know each other better.”

“When are your wanting to go out? I have to check my schedule and all. I do have a boyfriend and will have to work this around him. Just so you know we are only going as friends and that is it.”

“Yes, ma’am I completely understand. Nothing more and nothing less and won’t expect anything in return but pure friendship.” He tells her with hopes that it will all change.

Dee knows this is going to be hard on her friends because one Bethanie has a boyfriend and he is or can be possessive but so can my brothers. This is going to be showdown on its own to see who going to win her heart.
