He also went grabbing two loaves of bread, cheese and a case of pop, even a dozen of eggs with a tub of butter then headed to the check lane.
A half hour later, stood in Stacey’s small kitchen looking around and she was putting the items away that Shane had just bought for her, she asked, “Want to see Logan?” Hands tucked into his blue jean pockets, replied, “I was hoping to”.
Waving her hand said, “Come on”, and followed her into the one bedroom of the apartment and it was only one bedroom too.
Stood in front of the crib looking down at his son said, “Aw he’s sleeping we cannot wake him”.
“Yeah, he sleeps long during the day and at night does not want to”, Shane smiles saying, “Sure has a head full of blackest hair, huh”.
“Yes, looks like daddy”. Staring at Shane noticing said, “I should get going”.
Shook her head and they walked out of the bedroom, Shane was looking around and she barely had any furniture, none actually, just a rocking chair with a small counter top television, hung his head and she asked, “Hey you okay?” Scratching his head replied, “No far from right now”.
“I do not understand”.
“I finally do”.
“What Shane?”
Pointed saying, “Stacey, all you have is a darn chair in a living room, gosh girl real comfy huh”.
“Nothing I can do about it except just be glad I have that”.
“You cannot do anything, but I can Stacey”, beams and said, “Oh Shane you don’t have to do that”.
Looking at her asked, “What’s your favorite color?”
“Hunter green”. Twirls hairs staring up at him.
Nodded and she asked, “Shane you’re going to get me furniture?”
“It’s a must, you have nothing girl”.
Excited, hugged him tightly and he reached patting her back, she said, “Oh thank you Shane”.
Started breathing heavy with her pressed against him, Stacey held onto Shane tight and did not want to let him go.
“Aw, okay there Stacey, I do have to leave, I got four kids at home”.
“Wish you did not have to go Shane”, pulling away she released her tight grip from him and said, “I understand Shane and thank you so much”.
“No problem”.
Walking towards the door, paused turned around said, “Hey Stacey”. “Yes Shane?”
“I don’t want you to get the wrong idea with me buying the furniture”. Frowning and he noticed adding, “You are a very beautiful girl, but too young for me, hope you understand”.
Moving closer to him said, “Sure wish you felt different, because bet it would be great without being forced sex”.
Taking a deep gulp, with an actual rattle in his throat replied, “I must go”. “Why, getting to you Shane”.
Laughs out, “Heck yeah, I am a man”. Giggling and hurried out the door yells, “Bye Stacey”, standing by the door laughing.
However, within a week the new furniture was being delivered at Brenda’s home actually, because Stacey became so behind in the utilities bills and her electric and gas were shut off as she also got an eviction notice.
Furthermore, went over to Brenda’s that afternoon while Shane had been at work, she cried telling Brenda what had happen and Brenda sat holding her little grandson Logan and told Stacey, “Welcome home!”
Shane comes home from work and discovered Stacey would now be living with his mother, he wasn’t too thrilled, stormed out.
On the front porch, sitting on the swing Sebastian hung his head and Shane paced back and forth.
Throwing his hands up said, “Aw man one wrong doing come back to haunt me for life”.
“Nothing you can do brother except face that you have another kid”, as Shane waved his hand and said, “Heck I bought diapers”.
“Come on Shane stop acting cruel, it’s your kid”.
“Hey I know this”.
“Going to buy more than diapers”.
“Ha-ha, don’t I know this”.
Lighting up a cigarette, Sebastian said, “I know you brother, you’re not heartless and to an innocent child either”.
Pointing, “Aw thought you quit?”
Taking a deep inhale, replied, “Tried did not workout with all the drama in my rotten life”.
Grabbing hold of the bannister remarked, “My life is ruined”.
Blowing smoke rings and listening to Shane carry on, “I cannot have that girl near”. “Why not”, blowing more smoke rings looking at Shane replied, “Aw because”. “Because why, just tell me”.
“Keep your voice down”, looks around and Sebastian smirks saying, “No one is out here Shane”. Shook his head quietly said, “Stacey has a perfect body”.
“Ah, I get it now you want to fuck her”.
Waving hands, says, “Aw hush man”.
“What’s the problem just do it”.
“No, she’s too young”.
Blowing a cloud of smoke remarked, “I sure miss fucking sweet pussy”. “Man shut up, I have a major crisis here”. Hand against head leaning against bannister. Walking over to the porch swing now sat down next to Sebastian with his hands against his head saying, “Aw heck, Stacey is a darn kid, this is sick to even notice her nice ass”. Laughing chokes on smoke saying, “Sick or not Shane that night happened, you did have sex”.
“I am twenty-nine years old, heck she is nineteen”.
“Yeah Shane and the nineteen-year- old is your kids mama!”
Putting hands to his head again, said, “What’s worse is she told me how much she likes me in that mushy way".
Smirked saying, “Woo-hoot what’s wrong with that Shane it’s been over a year”. Throwing his hands up, remarked, “Nah, I cannot touch a kid”.
“Ah, news flash, you and kid have a baby”.
Meanwhile.
Danny Ray walked in the back kitchen door and set Brenda’s carton of cigarettes down
on the counter.
Comes around the corner noticing them, said, “Thanks dear”, he asked, “How you
doing?”
Putting one hand to her head, replied, “Numb, confused too, because Shane is furious about Stacey living here”.
“Well, he will have to get over it, because where’s that girl and a toddler supposed to go”. “Danny Ray what can we do about this unfortunate incident?”
“Aw Brenda I do not know, its Shane’s decision”.
“Well this is our house not his and their moving in!”
Sitting down by the kitchen table, Danny Ray said, “Let’s hope he at least makes the right one standing by that child Brenda”.
Got up off the chair, hurried to open the carton of cigarettes, her hands trembled. Danny Ray sure noticed how nervous this had made her not to mention upset as she wanted a carton.
Opening a pack of cigarettes, said, “Well I had a brief talk with him and he wants nothing to do with Stacey”.
Shook his head and Brenda added, “Shane told me that Stacey’s an awful reminder of something terrible that he done and never thought he could or would do such a thing”. Hand up to his head, asked, “Where’s the new bottle of aspirin?”
Pointing to the cupboards, replied, “Two new bottles are right here”, she reached above the sink into the cupboard.
Josh comes walking in asking, “Nana are we having dinner tonight?” “Will get pizza, cool huh”. Pats his back. Rolling his dark eyes, replied, “Yeah another pizza, how yummy”, and walked away. Pointing and upset said, “See how this is affecting my grandkids”.
Grabbing up the newspaper remarked, “Cook something and stop complaining”. Huffing asked, “Are you getting an attitude there Danny Ray?”
“Nope just tired of hearing you cry over spilled milk”.
“Oh hush”, waving her hand and he grins behind the newspaper.
One hour later, standing by the kitchen sink counter, Brenda smoking like a chimney, and Danny Ray sat by the kitchen table with Shawn, Stanle
y, Sebastian and Shane. Watching Stacey walking back through now carrying her pillows, Brenda took such a big inhale nearly choked.
Looked at Brenda by the kitchen counter, Stacey smiled saying, “Thanks, you’re very kind to let me with Logan stay here”, and Brenda literally hot boxed that cigarette. Rolled his eyes, and noticing Sebastian patted Shane’s back, Brenda said, “Your welcome Stacey, better get your room set up Charlene is going to help”. “Cool”, smiling walking away and added, “Thanks Shane”, almost fell off the chair and snatched him back up fast, Sebastian said, “Easy there Shane”. Covering his eyes, “What are you doing” and whispered, “I cannot watch that cute behind wiggle”. Standing by the sink, turned the water on, wet the dish rag and put it up to her beat red face, Shane said, “Aw, this is just swell maw, cannot believe what you’ve done here”. With her back to him, said, “Excuse me Shane”, jumped up almost knocking the chair down and his three brother’s eyes become huge.
Mumbled, “Shoot, here we go!” Hid back behind the newspaper.
Close to his mother and upset, said, “Have you completely lost your mind maw”. Turned around, getting right in his face, says, “What else was I supposed to do her parents abandon her”.
Folded his arms saying, “Yeah, it’s always the tear jerker story with girls, ah, huh”. Pointing at him, angry now Brenda said, “The young girl lives alone, barely can survive then they shut off her lights and gas Shane”.
Angry to, throwing his hand up said, “News flash maw, you’re letting a girl your boy raped move in!”
At that boiling point, furious, Brenda shoved Shane to his chest, and said, “Don’t stand in my face talking trash to me ever”.
“Maw realize its true okay, I committed the biggest sin doing smut”, covered her ears saying, “Do not talk about this to your mother!” Jerked her hands off from her ears and his brothers got up hurrying away fast and Danny Ray’s dark eyes are huge.
Scowling, “Did you just touch me Shane, your mother”.
“Dawggonit, you won’t listen, Christ”.
Hidden behind a magazine shaking his head listening and
Brenda looked faint saying, “Oh lord he’s sinning away using your name in vain oh please forgive this possessed boy of mine!”
Aggravated said, “Maw please, I can’t bear facing this girl daily that I hurt wrong”. “It wasn’t your fault”.
“Yes maw it is all my doings”. Hand against chest.
“No a loaded gun was to your head!” Splashing water on her red face. Waving his hand out said, “Well yeah, but I sure got into the moment enjoying it”. “Oh my house is going to crumble from this possessed child”.
Sitting by the kitchen table Danny Ray looked faint and Shane said, “Aw heck maw why do you think she had my kid”.
Face beat red with anger, got closer in his face saying, “Boy I’ll crack those demons right out of your head, don’t, you dare speak it!”
“You’re not a fool maw”, mumbled, “No, but you sure are”.
“Know why Stacey had my kid, should I educate you”. Fingers on the side of his head.
Curled her fist and said, “One more forbidden word out your foul mouth, you’re going down”.
“I got her pregnant, because I became so overcome by her that I saw sky rockets no wonder she didn’t have twins”.
Grabbed her carton of cigarettes fast and hands shook uncontrollably as the packs were falling all onto the floor, mumbling, “I’ll knock him into next week”.
“Truth is maw, a girl I hurt real badly had my child due to it being my best sexual experience ever”.
That was Brenda’s boiling point and started choking him, screaming,
“I’M GOING TO KILL YOU!” Hands tightly wrapped out Shane’s neck struggling to get his mother off.
Jumping up fast, Danny Ray pulling at Brenda that shouted,
“NO, LET ME STRANGLE THIS SNAKE!”
“HE GOT OFF ON FILTH!”
“CALM DOWN BRENDA!”
“Like hell, where this sinner is going” .Gasping, “Aw you cussed maw”. Squeezing tighter.
“Enough Brenda”.
Raging mad was slapping Shane's face repeatedly saying, “How could you”. Kept hitting him saying, “Oh you’re going to burn heathen, my son got turned on by rape oh that’s despicable”, spit in Shane’s face.
Calmly wiped his face and Brenda said, “How low down, because your wife lay near death with her husband enjoying his best sex ever”. Hanging his head and lifting her hands up shouts, “LORD FORGIVE THIS SINNER!”
“ENOUGH BRENDA!” Turning around saw Shane's boys standing by the kitchen entrance and Danny Ray said, “Please Brenda just stop”, she cried.
Face blood red, Shane walked out the back door and Brenda shouted, “FILTHY BOY START PRAYING HARD!”
Turned around noticing Stacey, turns walking away in tears, put hands over her face Brenda crying very heavily.
Rushing by Shawn, Stanley with Sebastian go out the back door fast and cleaning up the mess on the floor from the scuffle, Danny Ray saw construction boots run by. Even the bowl of fruit had fallen down from the counter along with nine packs of cigarettes out of Brenda’s carton.
Bending over the kitchen counter crying hysterical, wiping her face with a wet cloth, Danny Ray telling Brenda, “Get a grip”.
“I am fine, just give me a moment”.
Stood up holding the full carton once again, and raised her hand saying, “Nothing you can tell me, to make me feel different that Shane's head is not going to spin” . Exactly one hour later, Brenda stood in Stacey’s new bedroom looking around saying, “My nice job”, Charlene replied, “Yes, thanks I’ll take the credit”.
Took a bow giggling and rose her eyebrows high, Brenda said, “Ah, huh”. Watching Stacey lifting the baby out from the crib, smiled at her grandson and Stacey asked, “Charlene want to hold you’re nephew?”
Excited replied, “I’d love too” and took him into her arms with Brenda looking on, mumbles, “Looks just like Shane”.
Outside, on the back porch, sat on the swing with his three brothers sitting on the bannister right at his side.
“Aw cheer up Shane all will work out”, and hanging his head replied, ‘I doubt it Shawn”. Leaning against the porch banister now with his arms folded added, “Aw, Stacey is a sweet person, maybe you should give it a chance, never know she might turn out to be the one”.
A few days later, Saturday morning, the Wiley men had the day off and walking out of the apartment building heading next door, walking across the lawn eating a banana suddenly falls on the ground, eyes huge Shane asked, “Hey Stacey what are you doing?” Wearing a two piece pink polka dot bikini, rubbing suntan lotion on her bare shining legs replied, “Getting some sun”, mouth drops open staring at her, added, “Hopefully a tan”, lay back across the lawn chair.
Stood frozen and pushing sunglass up noticing asked, “What are you doing Shane?” Stutters actually, “Ah-ah, I’m, don’t know”, giggling and walking up behind him took one look at Stacey tapping Shane on the shoulder says, “Hey aren’t you suppose to help build our bigger shed?”
“What, huh?” Puzzled expression.
Shaking his head of long locks, Seth walks away towards the garage, glanced back at Shane that turned into a statue and smirks.
Rose up on the lawn chair, reaching for the tanning lotion said, “I really need to get my back, but cannot reach”, looks at him, held out the tube asked, “Care to help Shane?”
In a daze, Stacey says, “Shane?”
Slaps his forehead asking, “What happened?”
“Want to rub some on my back?”
“Nah, maybe one of the women will”.
“I can try”, rolls over, lay on her stomach, and staring her perfect bottom, wipes his forehead, said, “Woo-wee, its sure a hot day”, and heard his brothers, “Come on Shane”, saw Shawn, Stanley with Seth laughing, looks at Stacey and asked, “What the heck are you wearing girl?”
“A bathing suit”. Studied her up and down.
“Yeah, right”, giggling, says, “That’s what their called Shane”, eyes big glanced at four brothers smirking, he mumbles, “Saul,” and pointing said, “Aw, put some clothes on Stacey”.
Sat up said, “I have a bikini on”.
“Well, looks like nothing to me”.
“Oh my, am I distracting you Shane?”
Nervously running fingers through his much longer bangs, no reply.
“I think I might be”. Giggling.
“Heck no, you need to cover up, because there’s too many guys around here”. “Oh I might distract them, huh?”
“One definitely”.
Lay back down on the lawn chair asked, “What do you want Shane”.
“Aw you to wear clothes”.
“I am, so please go”.
Rose up, “Ouch”.
“What?”
“I think something just bit me”, spreads her legs slightly apart and fast as lightening
Shane took off running across the lawn, his brothers laughing and stumbles on a log falling down onto the grass, glanced back at Stacey standing then bends over, jumps up running to the garage his brothers are cracking up laughing.
Reaching the garage saw their smiling faces asked, “Don’t you have better things to do than gawk at a woman”, and walked into the garage.
Saw Sebastian waxing his truck, rushing up to him, grabs hold of his arm and jerking away says, “What the heck”.
“Take a look at this”, and walking partially out of the garage noticed the crowd of observers disappeared and pointing says, “Centerfold moment, right”. “Seriously I’m busy Shane”, motioning over his shoulder, Sebastian looks toward the house asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Her practically nude, that’s wrong”.
Wiping his hands off with a rag replies, “She’s wearing a bathing suit Shane”. Folds arms says, “Ah, no, that there is no suit, wears the tie than”.
“You are plumb nuts”.
“Don’t like nuts”.
Smirking asked, “Aw, what’s the matter Shane, she getting to you?”
Deep gulp replied, “No, not at all”.
“Yeah, right” walking back into the garage, Shane glances back at Stacey mumbles, “Holy-cow”, turning around, “What was that Shane”, walking in the garage, “Oh nothing”, whistling.
