STEPBROTHER (R-18) novel Chapter 19

Scarletts P.O.V

Later that evening, you're getting ready for your date after Jayden texts you that you're just gonna do something casual at one of your favourite places to eat. You decide on a cute yellow dress that dips low near your cleavage but flows nicely, stoping mid thigh. You fluff up the waves in your hair with your fingers, smiling satisfied as gentle ringlets border your face.

When you ascend the stairs and walk out towards the dining room, you see that Kirk, Oliver and your mom are seated at the table. They all look up at you, and you notice the way Oliver's eyes narrow

"Are you going on your date?"

You nod, and smile brightly at your mom

"Thanks mom for letting me go"

Kirk gives your mom a curious look, and she just shrugs. He grins.

"I think you're rubbing off on her Kirk"

"I just might be"

Your mom taps the seat beside her, and you walk over, your shirt heels click against the floor, before you lower yourself into the chair and avoid Oliver's gaze.

"So where are you guys going?"

Your mom's eyes are wide and excited as she awaits your response

"We're going to eat and hangout"

"Hangout huh..."

You shoot Oliver a glare, and watch as Kirk nudges his son.

"Enough, Oliver"

Oliver rolls his eyes and continues to pick away at his plate of chicken.

I'm glad he's annoyed. He wanted to treat me like dirt... well, I'm not just gonna sit here with my hand on my ass and be here when he's over his mood and wants to fuck. No thanks.

"What are you guys gonna do after eating?"

You shrug.

"I'm not sure yet. We have it narrowed down between mini-golfing, and just going for a walk on the bike trail"

"Oh, sounds romantic. And your dress looks beautiful"

She pulls at the ruffles on your strap, and smiles, clasping her hands together.

"My girls growing up!"

You chuckle, before covering your face briefly
