5.) "What is mine is yours"

Start from the beginning
                                    

"One second" I whispered back. She nodded and walked to my kitchen to sit down. I walked over and squatted down in front of Xander, "Wake up" I said, shaking him. He groaned and opened his eyes a little. "Good morning baby," he said, smiling at me. I smiled back and leaned in to kiss him.

"My mom is here," I said. He shot up and looked at me. "Where?" he asked. I pointed to the kitchen and he nodded. I shook Josh and he woke up smiling at me, "Hi angel" he said. I smiled and picked him up, "Hi buddy, I have someone I want you to meet" I told him. He nodded and laid his head on my shoulder.

I walked into the kitchen with Josh on my hip and Xander following behind me. "Mom" I said, getting her attention. She looked up and her eyes widened when she saw Josh and Xander. "Hi," she said. I sat Josh in his baby chair and buckled him in. I got his food from the fridge and gave it to him. "Mom this is Xander and Josh" I said pointing to each of them. "They live here?" she asked. I shook my head, "No, Josh wanted to stay the night with me and then Xander showed up around midnight." I said, leaning my elbows on the bar. Xander stood behind leaned on the counter.

"Is he yours?" she asked, pointing to Josh. I chuckled, "No, he belongs to Xander" I said. She nodded, I felt Xander lean beside me. I looked at him and he was looking at my mom, "I would like to think he is both of ours" he said to her. My eyes widened as I looked at my mom waiting for her reaction. "I am ok with that as long as you're ready to take on that responsibility" she said looking at me. I nodded and laid my head on Xander's shoulder.

"Do you still have that guest bedroom?" she asked. I nodded and she got up and left the room. I looked at Xander, "are you sure?" I asked. He nodded and leaned down kissing my cheek. I looked at Josh and he was still eating his food.

"Can I take you guys out" mom said walking back in the room. I looked at Xander and he nodded. "Let us get dressed," I said. She nodded and walked out. "You can borrow some of my brother's clothes from when he stayed here," I told him. He nodded and we walked to my room. I pulled out clothes I bought for Josh and got him dressed. I then dressed myself.We walked out and sat on the couch. Mom came out of the kitchen and grabbed her purse. "I thought we would go shopping first," she said. I nodded and stood up, I grabbed Josh and sat him on my hip. "Can I carry him?" she asked. I nodded and handed him to her. Xander held my hand as we walked down to my car. "You want to drive?" I asked him. He took my keys and opened my door letting me get in. Mom sat in the back with Josh. He started the car and placed his hand on my thigh as we pulled onto the road.

When we pulled up to the mall I got out and walked around the car. I grabbed Josh from the back seat and carried him inside. I heard mom trying to talk to Xander behind me and chuckled knowing he was not good with carrying conversations. "Where to first?" I asked Josh. He smiled at me and pointed, "Cookie," he said. I laughed and made my way to the cookie stand in the middle of the mall. He picked out his cookie and I pulled out my wallet to pay. "I got it" I looked up and saw Xander handing the man a black credit card.

"I don't want to use all your money" I told him

"I don't want to use all your money" I told him. He narrowed his eyes slightly. "What is mine is yours" he said. I shook my head and picked up Josh taking him to a table in the food court. I sat him on my lap and he began eating his cookie. "So how long have you been together?" mom asked, sitting in front of me. Xander sat next to me and threw his arm over the back of my chair. "A month" I said looking at Xander. He had a small smile on his face and was staring at me. "Momma help" I looked down and gasped. Josh just called me momma. I looked at Xander and he was smiling at Josh. "Here baby" I said, handing the cookie that fell in my lap to him. I kissed his head and rested my forehead against the back of it.

"Xander," I yelled, walking through his door. Mom left this morning so I am staying with Xander for the night. I heard feet coming down the hallway and saw Greg walking towards me. "He is at the warehouse," he said. I nodded and bid him goodbye. I walked upstairs and into his room. I dropped my bag at the end of the bed and threw myself on the bed.

Xander's POV

I kicked my shoes off by the door and groaned. I am so tired, I am just ready for bed. Belle said she would be here later today to stay the night. I walked upstairs and into my room. I went straight to my bathroom and took a quick shower.

After my shower I walked out of the bathroom and into the closet. I changed into a pair of shorts and threw my towel in the hamper. I walked out and looked at my bed. The covers were bunched up in a ball by my pillows. I must have forgotten to make it this morning. I laid on my side and went to pull the covers over me. I furrowed my eyebrows when I heard a groan coming from the covers. I looked under them and saw Belle laying there asleep. I smiled and pulled her to me.

I turned on the TV and watched the news. "When do you get here?" I looked down and saw Belle looking at me with sleepy eyes. "I just got in," I told her. She hummed and kissed my chest. I shivered and tightened my hold around her. "I need to use the bathroom," she said, moving out of my arms. I groaned and watched her walk into the bathroom.

I love that girl.
