"Ash, what was that all about?" I asked her, and she smiled. "Nicky, after Monica Delucci yesterday, and now driving around with a really handsome stranger with his arm around me, you've just made me the talking point of Sanderson High, and not for the usual reason!"
I grinned at her. "So what will they say when I drop you at school tomorrow, and kiss you goodbye?"
Ashley laughed out loud. "That would just curl them up!"
When we got in, Mom had found the clothes Ashley had picked up for her, and asked where they'd come from.
"Nicky took me shopping Mom, I tried to stop him, but, well...!"
Mom laughed. "Yeah, I bet! Nicky, you should have saved your money, baby, you may need it!"
That reminded me. I went to my room and got the remainder of the money Barbara had given me, somewhere around $10, 000, less $500 I needed for the muffler and some other replacement spares, and brought it back out to Mom.
"Mom, I want you to have this, you need it, there's bills to pay, food to buy, and I don't need it; I'm home now, and I'll find a job soon, so you better just take it."
Mom stared at me. "Nicky, how much is there?"
Ashley counted it. "$10,250, wow!"
Mom sat down heavily. "Nicky, that's all you have in the world, I can't...!" I cut across her objections.
"Mom, I know you need it, all I'll do with it, pardon my French, is piss it up against the wall, so you take it, use it for Ashley's college or bills, or whatever you need to pay. I don't need it now, you do; I'm not taking it back, I don't want it, end of discussion!"
Mom looked at me with tears in her eyes. "This is a loan, OK, Nick? You'll get it back, I promise you!"
I pulled her close to me, hugged her. "I don't want it back, Mom; it's the family's money now!"
"Excuse me, hello, does this mean I can have a laptop?" enquired Ashley with that impish grin on her face, and Mom laughed. "Yes Honey, you can have a laptop!"

Wrong first person noun case. Nearly all writers here and on SOL do this. Is it monkey-see-monkey-do or is it an inside joke?
dirtyoldbimanabout 1 month agoGood enough to make me read part 2. BUT, after a few days he and Ashley are in love? With his background of abuse, I would think he would be shy, or slower with the romance. The Stepmom dying? really? Oh well, your story.
Anonymousabout 1 year agoSomeone beat me to it - when he applied for a passport his drivers license had a different name so he's SOL
Anonymousover 1 year agoMuch as I like this story, we do find out later that Nick's last name isn't Davies, it's Davis, so when he applied for a passport his drivers license and his birth certificate wouldn't agree. So no passport.
ScottishTexanalmost 3 years agoOkay, now that I'm off duty...by a show of hands, how many people here believe that the stepmother was murdered and didn't commit suicide? ✋ I'm going to have to RAFO that one. I think Dad offed her. Her death happened too damn fast and suspiciously. I don't put it above Dad to travel to the USA and try to screw over everyone there.
From a critical perspective, I think that Nicky and Ashley ended up in bed together far too quickly. I would have enjoyed it more if they took a little bit more time to find each other. From a real life perspective, I have first hand experience with pining for a long lost sibling. You can become brother/sister in a matter of minutes. Physical attraction and love takes a whole lot longer. Granted, this is Beachbum's fantasy world and he has poetic license to mold it as he sees fit. But grand departures from reasonable plausibility do not make for a great yarn.
ScottishTexanalmost 3 years agoI'm going to like this one. I'm torn because I have to get back to work when I'd rather read the next installment of this! 5 stars 🌟
