A Price to
Pay
Part 3 Chapter 4
"So Jeremy," my father
started, "how did you meet Amy?" I looked at Jeremy
clearly interested in his answer. "Well sir, it was sorta like
love at first sight. I mean Amy said yes when I asked her
out." I smiled, "Yeah, I said yes after the first 10
times." I said while rolling my eyes. Jeremy smiled at me,
"You wanted to say yes the first time though." I shook my
head and said playfully, "Not really." Jeremy gave me a
light kiss on my hand. My mom spoke out next, "So what do you
want to do when you grow up?" I swallowed hard, I knew his
answer and I knew my mom wouldn't like it. "Well same
thing as Amy, I want to go pro in soccer. That will always be my
first career choice, but my next choice would be a teacher." I
held my breath hoping that that was a good answer for my mom. My
mom looked thoughtfully at him and asked, "What kind of
teacher?" I took a sigh of relief that she ignored his first
career choice. "Well, I want to be a high school English
teacher." My sister, Sophia, started laughing, "A high
school teacher? Well Amy better watch out cause all your students
would be in love with you and that pretty face of yours." I
felt my face turning bright red, but when I looked at Jeremy he was
laughing with her and nodding. Damn natural I though while taking a
sip of my water. My mom turned to Faith, "So how's my
favorite baby doing?" she asked while pointing at Sarah. Faith
smiled, "She's been really good. Just a few more months
and she'll be one!" the whole table sighed out saying
'awww' and 'beautiful' and
'congratulations'. After a while the waitress came over,
"Hi, my name is Jamie, I will be your server tonight, may I
get you guys something to drink?" Jeremy and I burst out
laughing; the waitress looked confused. Once Jeremy stopped
laughing he said with a chuckle, "Your name is a combination
of my girlfriend's name and my name." the waitress gave us
this suspicious look like she thought we were drunk or on drugs,
which of course only made us laugh more. My mom rolled her eyes and
said, "I think we can order our drinks and food." the
waitress nodded. Slowly everyone at the table ordered, when it was
my turn, I pointed to te water bottle I had brought from my game,
"I'll just have more water, and could I have the taco
salad?" The waitress nodded and walked away. Sophia rolled her
eyes, "watching your weight?" my sister asked. I smiled,
"I'm just tryin to look better than you." Faith
joined in and laughed, "You already are!" everyone at the
table started laughing, except for Sophia who looked like she was
racking her head for a witty comeback. Jeremy smiled, "The
score is tied, Sophia one and Amy one." I rolled my eyes. My
mom looked at me, "Faith, Amy? Could you girls come with me
for a minute?" we nodded and gave each other confused looks. I
kissed Jeremy and started walking with my mom. She swiftly directed
us to the restroom. When we were all in she looked at us with sad
eyes, "There's a mass for Jack next saturday I know it
doesn't sound like a big deal but think about it." I
sighed, " of course there's the obvious but what about
Jeremy?" my mother nodded her head. I turned to Faith, whose
face was ash white. "Griffin will be there, and I have to
bring Sarah." Once again my mom nodded her head, "I know
I should have waited till after dinner but Jack's mom texted me
asking me if you guys were coming." I took a deep breath,
"I'll be there; I just don't know about
Jeremy..." Faith also sighed, "I… I... I'll be
there..." Faith and I automatically turned to hug each other.
My mom opened we phone and replied to Jack's mom. I sighed and
pulled Faith back to the table with me. Jeremy could sense the
sadness that had crossed over us. He gave me an odd look, I just
shook my head and mouthed later. He nodded and looked up with a
smile on his face, "looks like our dinners here."
