Destined to be yours… - Chapter 25

Brett’s sister, Brianna, and her husband owned a house but everytime there’ll be an occasion, it will always be held at the old house of the Navarro’s.

After two hours drive, Brett, Aly, with the kids, reached the place. Brett parked his car. Aly woke up the kids who slept during the travel.

“Here they are.” Mrs. Navarro said and excitedly fetch them from the gate. Brett and Aly gave their respect to his parents. The kids did the same.

“Come here, Aly, I’ll introduce you to my daughters. Come, come.” Mrs. Navarro pulling Aly towards a table. Aly is a little hesitant but Brett gave her a nod and a smile. Brett roamed around to greet his acquaintances. The kids went inside the house to meet and play with the Navarro’s cousins.

“Briann, Erika, this is Aly, the one I’m telling you.” Mrs. Navarro said proudly. “Finally, we meet. My mother was very happy telling stories about you and our Big brother.” Brianna said giving a peck to Aly. “Mama was very excited in saying that her future daughter-in-law is coming today.” Erika said smiling. Aly blushed. “Nice to meet you.” She said. Aly sat down and have a chit chat with Brett’s mother and sisters.

After greeting his friends, Brett looked around and finally saw Aly. “Excuse me ladies. I will get my girlfriend now because I’m hungry and the kids too.” Brett said holding the hand of Aly and pulling her, encircling his arm around her waist. Mrs. Navarro smiled widely hearing the word GIRLFRIEND.

“You mean…?” Mrs. Navarro said asking for confirmation. “Yes,Ma, she’s already mine.” Brett said looking lovingly at Aly. Aly blushed hard on the announcement of their relationship on Brett’s family. “I’m really happy. Oh, Aly, thank you for giving my son a chance.” Mrs. Navarro said hugging Aly. “Atlast, Big Brother found his match.” Brianna said smiling. “If you will have problem with Big brother in the future, just call us and we’ll spank him together.” Erika said. Aly smiled. “Thank you, Auntie.” Aly said feeling the warm acceptance from them. “Mama!” Mrs. Navarro said that made the others laughed.

Brett brought Aly and the kids on the buffet table to get food. After, they sat and enjoyed their meal.

“Scarlet!” Brianna called her friend. “Come, you’re a little late.” Brianna said faking her anger. “I’m sorry, my cousin here had an emergency meeting so I had no choice but wait for him. “Where’s your car?” Brianna asked. “It was on the autoshop so I had to ask my cousin to drive for me.” Scarlet said. “By the way, this is Aiden.” Scarlet continued. “Nice to meet you.” Brianna said. Aiden nodded and gave a smile. “Let’s go inside so you can eat.” Brianna said.

As Aiden is walking, he saw a familiar face and smiled. “So the goddess is here.” He said inwardly. Same with Scarlet, she saw Brett but the sweet smile on her face faded when she saw Aly. “Cuz.” Scarlet called Aiden and then pointed Aly. “Yeah, I already saw her.” Aiden said. “What is that?” Brianna asked seeing the two are looking on Brett’s side. “That’s Brett, right?” Scarlet asked. “Yeah.” Brianna answered. “Who’s with him?” Scarlet asked faking her curiosity. “Aly, his girlfriend, my future sister-in-law.” Brianna said proudly that made Scarlet irritated.

Scarlet and Aiden moved towards the table beside Brett and Aly. Before Scarlet could place her plate on the table, she walked towards Brett. “Hi, Brett!” Scarlet said stroking Brett’s back. Brett didn’t responded on Scarlet and only nodded. Aly saw what Scarlet did to Brett and raised her brow. “Hi, Aly.” Scarlet said faking her smile. “Hello.” Aly said seriously. The kids, particularly, Harper and Aria, are looking with disgust on their faces. Tyler and Caden were enjoying their desserts and not giving any attention to Scarlet because they were avoiding Harper and Aria’s annoyance just like before.

Aly felt that there’s someone looking at her. She looked around and saw Aiden. He’s smiling at her but Aly didn’t gave attention to him. Aiden devilishly grinned. “Well, well, my goddess is an aloof one. Let’s see, untill when you can avoid me.” Aiden said inwardly.

After eating, the kids continued to play inside the house. Aly and Brett were left in the table. Scarlet and Aiden decided to join them. Aly felt awkward on Aiden’s glances on her. Brett saw it with his own ice but still continued to sit on their table showing respect to the two annoying person in front of them.

“So, Brett, Dave told me that you got sick. How are you now?” Scarlet said with seduction on her voice. “He’s a lot better now because I took care of him.” Aly said then hold Brett’s hand. “Right, hon?” Aly said looking at Brett then winked. Brett was laughing inside. “Two birds in one stone.” He said inwardly. Scarlet pouted her lips and Aiden raised his brow.

“Brett, come here, let’s drink.” Brianna’s husband said. Brett looked at Aly. “Can I?” Brett asked. “Only few, remember, you only got better yesterday.” Aly said. “Ok.” Brett said and gave a quick kiss on Aly’s lips before moving to table not from them. Aly looked at Scarlet triumphantly. Scarlet gave her an angry squint. Aiden looked at two girls smiling and shaking his head.

After a while, Aiden was also called on the table with the boys drinking.

Brianna and Erika joined Aly and Scarlet bringing with them a ladies drink.

“Brett, you’re lucky to have a beautiful girlfriend beside you. How did you manage to make her yours.” One of his friend asked. “You don’t need to ask, you only look at my face and you will get the answer.” Brett said jokingly and the rest laughed. Aiden just kept quiet. “So, when we’ll hear wedding bells?” Another asked. “Well, it depends on her. If she can’t wait, then, it will be soon.” Brett said that made the rest laughed. “Show off.” Aiden whispered.

“Aly, what made you like our brother?” Erika asked. “He’s nice.” Aly said. “That’s all?” Brianna asked smiling. “I like him but I don’t know why.” Aly said. Brianna and Erika looked at each other smiling. “I think, you don’t like our brother, you love him already.” Brianna said teasing Aly that made the latter blushed. “They say that when ask why you love someone, you don’t answer it with because but you answer the question with “I don’t know”. You love someone not because of his looks or his charm, you love him because he’s him.” Erika said looking at Aly seriously. “Don’t worry, eventhough, sometimes my brother is a pain in the ass, he will only love you and only you.” Brianna said that made Aly blushed more.

Scarlet was fuming inside, without any word, she stood up and bid her goodbye to Brianna. Aiden was surprised when Scarlet pulled him from his seat and went outside. “I want to go home!” Scarlet said. Aiden only sighed.

“What happened?” Erika said. “Scarlet had a deep crush on Brett and I think she got jealous of Aly.” Brianna said. “Oh, sorry for her. Aly already got our brother’s heart.” Erika said teasing Aly. “Aly, be careful with Scarlet. She’s a scheming witch.” Brianna said warning Aly. “But she’s your friend.” Erika said. “Yeah, and it’s too late to avoid her.” Brianna said smiling. “She sticks to me like a glue.” Brianna continued and the girls laughed.
