| CHAPTER 19 ~Brady House~ Hope comes walking into the house slamming the door behind her, almost hitting Bo in the face. �Brady why don�t you ever learn.� Bo stated to himself before opening the door and walking in. �Hope I�m sorry, can we please talk about this?� �There�s nothing to talk it.� She states firmly making her way into the kitchen. Bo starts to walking into the kitchen but stops and thinks twice as the sound of pots and pans hit the kitchen floor. �I�m coming in please don�t throw anything at me.� �If you don�t want me to throw anything at you Brady then don�t come in.� �Hope I�m sorry.� �Why do you care so much if Billie and Patrick get married? Why do you care about anything that woman does or who she does it with.� He places his hand on the door. �Because she�s Georgia�s mother and what she does effects her.� �And what you do effects me Brady.� She pushes the door open causing him to jump back. �But yet that doesn�t seem to matter to you.� �Hope I said I�m sorry what more do you want from me?� She walked across the room and picked up a magazine and then walked back into the kitchen daring him to follow her. �Are we going to talk through this door all night long.� �If you don�t want to get hurt Brady, I suggest you don�t come in.� Hope yelled making herself comfortable at the kitchen table. There�s a knock on the door and he goes to answer it. �Doug, Julie what are you doing here?� Bo asked excited to see them. �I thought you were out of town?� �We got back late last night.� Julie said giving him a great big hug. �I wanted to come by then�� �But I convinced her that my pregnant little girl needed her sleep.� Doug added in. �So where is my little girl anyway?� Bo looked back to the kitchen door. �You know why don�t you two have a seat and I�ll go get her.� Doug and Julie made their way over to the couch and Bo carefully makes his way into the kitchen. Bo walked over to Hope and placed his hand over her mouth. �Before you start yelling we have company.� She gave him an evil look and he removed his hand. Very calmly. �What�s the matter Brady? You don�t want your girlfriend knowing we aren�t getting along.� �Hope how many times must I tell you there isn�t anything going on between Billie and myself. All we are doing is trying to find our daughter that�s all.� She slams a pot onto the stove. �And how many times do I have to tell you she wants more then a daughter.� She hits him in the chest. �She wants you Brady.� He wraps his arms around her and against her will pulls her close. �Well that�s too bad because the only woman I want is right here in this room with me.� �Your swashing the baby Brady.� Hope replied annoyed Bo shock his head no. �Nice try Fancy Face but we�ve been down this road way to many times.� Hope looked over his shoulder. �Whose in the living room?� �Your dad and Julie.� �Dad and Julie are here?� Hope said excitingly and trying desperately to get out of Bo�s grip. �Before you go out there can we please call a truce? The last thing I want is for them to think we�re fighting.� �To think we�re fighting?� He rolls his eyes. �Okay fine to know we�re fighting.� �I�ll try my hardest not to let on.� He let�s her go. �I love you Fancy Face.� She doesn�t say a word as she walks past him and into the living room. �Dad, Julie� Julie runs over and gives her a hug followed by Doug. �You look great sweetie.� �Thanks dad.� Julie takes her hand and leads her over to the couch. �So tell me how have you been feeling? Your dad and I were so worried when we heard what happened. Is everything okay now?� �She�s better then okay.� Bo chimed in. Hope looked back at him. �I�m fine Julie, so you don�t need to worry about me.� �Well I�m your father and I�m allowed to worry as much as I want to.� �Yes you are daddy and you worry way to much.� Bo walks over and places his arm around Doug. �Hey he�s allowed to worry about his little girl. I know I do.� Julie looks up at Bo and then smiles before turning her attention back to Hope. �Seriously honey is everything okay.� Hope looks up at Bo. �My HEALTH couldn�t be better.� �With the exception of her blood pressure.� Bo added sitting next to her. �But the doctors are monitoring her real close and they said from here out it should be nothing but smooth sailing.� �That�s only because they aren�t the ones who are going to be pushing this baby out.� Hope laughed while rubbing her stomach. �I can�t believe how bit your gotten.� Julie stated putting her hand over Hope�s. �I don�t recall you ever being this big with either of the boys.� �Just one more thing we can add to the �it�s going to be a girl list�.� Bo happily replied. �I really do hope it�s a girl Brady.� Hope looked over at Doug and Julie. �Not that I�m not grateful for my two sons.� �Sweetie you look so tired.� Julie replied as Hope yawned �So your dad and I are going to take off and I�ll give you a call tomorrow.� �No Guys don�t leave.� Hope said jumping up. �Hope�s right.� Bo added in. �Stay we�ll order Chinese or something for dinner.� Doug walks over takes his daughters hand and kisses her forehead. �We�ll call you tomorrow.� �You know it�s awful quite around here.� Julie said looking around the room. �So where is my grandson?� �Zack is at the park. Jenn�s going to bring him home later.� Bo replied handing her, her coat. Doug walked over and placed his arm around Julie. �Come on let�s give these two some only time while they can still get it.� �Oh yea because that�s just what we need.� Hope said sarcastically to herself. Bo looked back. �You two have a goodnight and don�t worry about Hope I�ll take real good care of her.� �I�m counting on that.� Doug replied smiling back at Hope. �You take care of yourself.� �I will daddy.� Bo closed the door behind him and started to walk back to Hope who was now making her way up the stairs. She held her hand out stopping Bo dead in his tracks. �I�m going to bed and you�re not invited.� �Hope� �Goodnight Brady.� She yelled storming off |
