Look At You


Part Four

Jessy and Zac finally joined the rest of their families. "I have the feeling this is just the first of many family meals we'll be having together." Barbie said touching Diana's hand motioning with her eyes to the other end of the table. "Oh yes that too!" Diana said motioning with her eyes to the four in the middle of the table. Barbie watched as her Sam smiled at Avie and she giggled, looking away, then back at him smiling a partially toothless smile. "Oh my, Ken hun did you happen to notice what was going on right beside you." Barbie whispered. "What hun? What's going on?" Ken said looking to see Jessie toss a piece of bread at Josh, who looked up with revenge in his eyes and when he noticed who had thrown it, he popped it in his mouth and smiled ripping of a piece of his bread and tossing it on Jessie's plate. Jessie popped the piece in her mouth, licking her fingers like someone much older, then smiling at him. "Hun what just happened?" Ken whispered. "Oh get real Ken, you couldn't have forgotten all ready. We haven't been married that long. I remember not to long ago someone feeding me strawberries, I'm so sorry I spit it on you. Hun I just don't care for them. Little disgusting seedy boogers." Barbie laughed. "Oh no you don't you tell me why you spit on him?" Diana insisted. "Oh he was trying so hard to be romantic, candles, kids bribed, soft music, I didn't she the bowl of strawberries, some chocolate dipped, some plain with a dish or whipped cream to dip them in or I would have said something. Well he was doing he best to seduce me, doing very well at it if I remember correctly, he had wined me, danced me, and picked me up and laid me on our bed, I was in heaven when he said close your eyes and open your mouth I have a great surprise. I'm thinking frisky devil, to hell with first base, second base, I'll round third and hang out between third and home anytime with him, so I'm sitting there with my eyes shut and mouth open expecting him and I start smelling strawberries and the litte seed, texture, taste comes to mind and I'm going like gag, just what I need at this time and I try concentrating on Ken, when he pops this strawberry into my mouth so far that when I reacted in shock, I bite that seedy, mushy booger and as it smashed in my mouth, I spit and when I opened my eyes, there was my poor Ken, such a disappointed face with a splatt of strawberry dead center. I did the unforgiveable, I laughed my ass of. Sorry about that dear, but it was about the.. see I'm not the only one." Barbie whispered as Diana and Walker burst out laughing. "Man how do you stand it. She'd have me in stitches." Walker said slapping Ken on the back. "Oh she does, that's why I married her. Just when you're the reason for the laughter, especially in the bedroom." Ken said bursting into laughter as Barbie rose backing away again walking to the other end leaning forward "I thought you two said they never do that. One minute we're having a nice conversation and the next your father is grabbing at his sides, laughing. I mean I can be slow at times, but I have no idea why they're laughing. What is so funny about someone not liking strawberries?" Barbie said. "Mother you didn't, you're shameless." Jessy scolded staring a Chele imitating spitting and touching between her eyes, to Taylor's and Zac's amusement. Chele's eyes got big as she remember Jessy relaying the strawberry date. "Would anyone care for chocolate cake, for some reason I woke this morning in a baking mood and baked a chocolate layer cake." Barbie asked as the tables errupted in yeas. "Jessy sweety would you and Zac get a trash bag and make the rounds clearing the table. Hun? if you're done laughing, could you give me a hand in the kitchen please." Barbie asked. "Coming dear." Ken said, whispering to Walker, "Oh boy am I in trouble now she said please." Ken swallowed hard, patted Walker on the back, "If I'm not back out in say twenty minutes, grab the missus and the kids and run for home." as he made his way to the house. "Hun I put it on top of the frig in the, could you reach it for me please?" Barbie asked, adding, "That's why I married you. You married me to make you laugh and I married you because I'm too short and you can reach everything for me." she said her hands appreciating his heighth as he stretched reaching the cake platter. He moved it to the front, turned around taking his wife in his arms and kissing her deeply. "Hun you don't mind my sharing with Walker and Diana, I didn' do it to embarass you. It's just I feel this closeness to Diana, more than with my own sisters. I guess I didn't even think not to share my life with her." Barbie said. "Oh how nice. I though I was in trouble you asked please. I've usually done something dumb that you try to point out without totally embarassing me. This is nice for a change, you apologizing. Nicely I might add. No hun I have no problem with your sharing our life with Walker and Diana, I actually thing the kids have done a lot already to connect. Their Zac our Jessy, their Taylor our Chele, our Josh their Jessie, our Sam their Avie and who knows probably their Isaac our.. " Ken stopped in mid sentence "Hun do you hear someone?" he asked quieting her. "Kristina, Kristina is that you?" Barbie screamed racing to the front door throwing it open, as Chele and Jessy raced past her grabbing their sister an the hugging, jumping, screaming, "My little scream squad." Barbie said to the boys as they gathered in the front door around her. "Wow she's a knockout too. Is a requirement for being your daughter?" Isaac asked. "No hun. Just happened that way." Barbie said. "You know, you sit and listen to them chatting, which will be all night long tonight, they don't think of themselves as knockout, beautiful gorgeous. They talk like they're barely normal. Such fragile self esteems they have. That's the biggest part of my job, assuring them what capable, talented, beautiful young women they are. Nice job." she told them as another round of screams. "I think she knows of your existence Isaac." she laughed.
