Let My Love Open the Door to Your Heart

Waffle Blocks

I pull up from the doctors and see Ryan is at my house

"Uncle Ryan is here," Mike said.
"Yes he is."

I get him out and he runs to the door. I open it and Mike runs to Ryan.

"Hey buddy," Ryan said.
"I went widding on wace day and Sunday," Mike said.
"Really?"
"Yeah."
"You rode your bike?"
"No my dirt bike."
"Both days?"
"Yes."
"That's great."

Mike smiles at him. I go over and hug Ryan.

"Hey," I said.
"I brought over the other gifts for him," Ryan said.
"Great."

Mike looks at us.

"Where is Aunt Lindsay?" Mike asks.
"She went to the gym," Ryan said.

Mike nod is head and go back playing with the waffle blocks.

"How he likes them?" Ryan asks.
"He loves them. If you want you can have a set for at your house since I didn't realize how big they were and really can only have one in here."
“I see that."
"Ok so what up?"
"Figure I take him if you want to see friends or just be by yourself."

I bit my lip then look at Mike.

"I know you had the doctor’s appointment today and might need to stop to think about the things they told you,” He told me.
"When are you coming back from Overseas?"
"Don't know but there is a race around Monster Cup in CA too. Why?"
"I think I just need someone around me that isn't Ken when he gets the surgery."
"I talk to Red Bull and make sure there is a sometime for the break so we can be around."
"Thanks."
"What about his heart?"

I sigh and run a hand through my hair.

"Come on talk to me," Ryan said.
"They are seeing if my medical bills are paying for it. If they are then the tonsils will be taken out next month," I said.
"So they agree to do it soon?"
"Yeah because it's better if it's done soon and with the fact that I know all about of the surgery."
"Why have tonsils so soon?"
"I need the most help with him with his heart surgery is so that is the important one."
"Got it."

I nod my head and look at Ryan.

"What you want to do with him?" I ask.
"Play with the waffle blocks," He said.
"Ok take him. They are in the garage."
"Yes."

I laugh at Ryan.

"Mike you want to go over to Uncle Ryan's house," I ask.
"No. I'm playing," Mike said.
"Mom got a set to stay at my house," Ryan said.
"Yes."

I shake my head and grab my phone and ask Ken if he wants to hang out today. I go to the garage and Ryan pick up the box.

"I like these," Ryan said.
"Me too. They awe fun," Mike said.
"Great."

We walk outside and Ryan put them in the back of his truck.

"Oh yeah Jade's present is huge," Ryan said.
"What is it?” I ask.
"Don't know."

He hands me a bag. I gave it to Mike and Ryan takes a box out to the garage.

"He got it delivered to my house and told me to warp it for him."

I rolled my eyes and grab scissors and open it and see it's a track set up.

"Whao," I said

Mike came and I see that he got some clothes that Blake obvious made.

"I got a shirt for you too," Ryan said.
"Great."

He smiles and looks at it.

"This will be fun,” Ryan said.
"Can I play with it?" Mike asks.
"You go play with Uncle Ryan and I will set it up so tomorrow after school you get to play with it,” I told him.
"Ok."

He runs to Ryan's car. Ryan grab the car seat form my car and put it in then put him in. I wave at them and close the door. I grab my phone and call Jade.

"Hey," Jade said.
"I'm going to kill you," I said.
"Really come on the gift was great."
"Dame it. I knew I should have let Ryan to get him a bike."
"I help get the bike ready for him. Don't let him take all the credit. We got him that bike."
"Then why did you get him such a big birthday present?"
"Because I saw it and know he has to have it."
"Get your wife pregnant and stop spoiling my child."
"Ok. It doesn't have to go on the table since that what the Ryan Snipe dose."
"Ok bye Jade."
"Bye."

I hang up and sigh while running a hand through my hair. My phone rings making me look and see its Ken.

"Hey," I said.
"Hey. What happen to Mike?" Ken asks.
"He went to Ryan's for the day."
"Ok I'm heading over there. I was at the ranch so I will be there soon."
"Ok that sounds great. You want me to make dinner or you want to go out?"
"Let's go out."
"What about your bike?"
"I put it in your garage. I will be gone before Mikes comes so it's all good."
"Ok I see you when you get here."
"Ok bye."
"Bye."

I hang up and go upstairs and change my outfit then put more make up on and did my hair better. I go downstairs and hear a knock. I walk over and see Ken. I smile at him. He kisses my lips.

"Hey," He said.
"How you feeling?" I ask since he wasn't doing well at the race.
"I'm fine. I missed you."

I smile at him and kiss his lips again.

"Where are your shoes?" He asks.
"Upstairs still," I said.
"Open the garage and I put my Bike in."
"Can you help me with something after that?"
"Yeah what?"
"I need a box brought in."
"I got it."
"Thank you."

I hug him and go to the garage and open it. I go and get my shoes on. I walk over and smile seeing Ken putting his bike away.

"How dose Mike like Adam?" Ken asks.
"He gets use to Adam since I decided that after the race every Saturday we will be at the ranch."
"After?"
"Yeah Mike watches the high light show then practice then the pre show."
"He watches a lot of TV on Saturday."
"Yeah and really zero the other days so it's all just packed in a day."
"So what’s in the box?"
"A track toy," I said.
"I want to see it," Ken said.
"You are going to help put it together with me?"
"Yes."

I laugh and he takes the box and set it in the living room then looks over at the waffle blocks.

"That looks like fun," Ken said.
"I know. I love them. It acutely got him away from his bikes."
"That's great."

I nod my head and Ken takes the table out and set it up off to the side and I look at it since it's high.

"He can't have it on the table yet. It's too tall for him,” I told him.
"I put it up in the garage again."
"Closet its easier."
"Ok."

We get things out and put things together. I take a picture and send it to Jade. Ken picks up the table. I told him where to put it. I get the extra pieces and loot at them and put them in the bottom of the entertainment center.

"Need a box like you got for the other things,” Ken said.
"Yeah I find one next time I go to target."

Ken looks around then at me.

"What?" I ask.
"Your house actually has a kid in it know," He said.
"Thanks I think."
"I mean you have a rug out and that was the only way you know you have a kid. Now you see there is a kid really here."
"Thanks."

He came over and kisses my lips. I smile at him when he pulls away.

"Hungry?" He asks.
"Yeah."
"Let's go get food."

We go and go to a nice restaurant. We sit outside to wait for the table. My phone rings making me look at it and see it's Lindsay.

"Hey," I said biting my lip worried about Mike.
"Those blocks are going home right? Ryan is joking?” She asks.
"He can be if you want him too."
"Really?"
"Yeah I bought too much and have an extra set so if you guys want those can stay there or I guess they go outside in my backyard."
"Ryan and Mike are having so much fun."
"That's great. He's fine right?"
"Yeah."
"So I take it that you don't like the blocks?"
"They are building a fort."
"What else do you expect to do with them?"
"They are big and I have no idea where to put them when Mike isn't here."
"In the garage with Ryan's bikes."

Ken looks at me and I smile at him.

"That's an idea to see how much he wants them," Lindsay said.
"Lindsay, look at him and tell me he doesn't want them."

She sighs making me worried since normally she would laugh at him know he's having fun.

"I call you latter. Thanks for the blocks," She said.
"No problem bye."
"Bye."

I hang up and Ken warp his arm around my and pull me to his side. I kiss his cheek.

"You ok?" He asks.
"I'm worried she sounded annoyed. I didn't think it's something to be annoyed at," I said.
"Is she ready to be a mom?"
"No."
"What about Ryan?"
"He knows it's not the time for them to have kids. If anyone has baby fever it's Jade."
"You and Jade are closer than I thought."
"There times I think we connected because we are not one of our parent's favorite and kind of been expected to fend for our self’s more than the other two have."
"They have favorites?"

I sigh and look at my hands.

"My mom has babied Blake since he was born because of his heart. My dad really never wanted to leave Ryan's side when Ryan left Minnesota."

Ken laughs making me glare at him.

"Sorry you said that with the accent," Ken said.
"You have accent and I don't laugh at you."
"I have an accent on everything not just the state."

I laugh and he smiles and leans over and kiss my lips.

"You know what?" Ken asks.
"What?"
"I think this is what a date is spouse to be not what we normal do."

I laugh and Ken pouts at me. I kiss his cheek making him smile.

"You mean we are both acting our age and the universe doesn't mind it?" I ask.
"Yes."

I laugh and smile at him. He kisses my lips. The buzzer beeps. We get up and go inside and they set us at a table. I grab the menu and start reading it with my phone on top of the table so I can see if Ryan or Lindsay calls me.

"Do you always have your phone at the table or is it just me?" Ken asks.
"When Mike isn't at the table with me it's on so if something happen it's right away," I said.
"So kind of."
"Yes but you text in the middle of eating so you can't talk."
"I thought you missed that."
"You forget that I’m a mom so I see all."

He laughs making me giggle a little. The waitress came and we order our drinks.

"When's your birthday?" Ken asks.
"Why?" I ask.
"I don't know it. I don't think you ever told me."
"I haven't."
"And why?"

I sigh and look down at my hands.

"I was 15 when I had Mike."
"I figure that out."

I look at Ken and he smiles at me.

"October 15," I said.
"How did you live in Australia for that long at 17 because you pretty much were there for that age."
"The town I grew up was super small. I was over being a victim but the town wasn’t over treating me like one and I was told how great I was or stupid I was for keeping Mike. I just wanted to go away where no one knew how he came about and I knew someone from Australia form Cosmetically school and she was going back since her parents were getting a divorce and she got me a job and found me a apartment out there."
"Your parents let you do that?"
"My mom was the biggest one who treated me liked a victim so the threat freaked here out so much that she said ok. She got a little upset when I didn't talk to her as much as she wanted to."
"How often did you talk to her?"
"I talked to her or my dad about 6 times."
"What about your brothers?"
"We video chanted ever week. Each one had a different night. Whitney and Lindsay had different nights then Jade and Ryan."
"And they didn't talk to Mike?"
"No. I normal talked to them after I put him to bed."
"Oh like what you do with me."

I nod my head at him. He kisses my lips. I smile at him as the waiter came back and we order our food.
