Mathew arrived late to the burial and knew he was in trouble, Dominco was going to have his head, taking a deep breath he walked calmly to where Dominco sat with his wife and kids as other people in black came around one after the other obviously handing out their condolences,most of the people that attended the burial were co workers and family well speaking of family Mathew paused to search the crowd for his mother on seeing her in the field not so far from where Adrian his uncle was buried,he knew she was probably hurting after loosing her brother like that, sighing he became conflicted he didn't know who to attend to first his mother or Dominco, turning back towards Dominco he saw him kissing his wife,

"Well I just got my answer"

He said to himself as he ignored Dominco and walked towards his mom.

As his footsteps approached her lightly,he could hear the crunching of the dried leaves on the ground,no matter how softly he tried to walk they made loud crunchy sounds,

"I expected you to be out screwing and forget about the burial!"

Martha said turning to meet her son's gaze,she didn't need to be told before she knew it was him,his aura was In the air,

"Hey mom"

Mathew said taking her frail body into his arms as she hugged him back slowly,he missed her,

"Not to lie I wasn't expecting you"

Martha said freeing herself from her son's embrace,

"Well me too" Mathew said chuckling as he returned his arms back to his mom's shoulders,

"You know I always thought I'd die before him"

Martha said with a sad smile on her face,

"He always teased me about how frail and weak I was and how I was going to probably die before him…"

A sad chuckle left her mouth as tears slipped from her eyes, rubbing her shoulders gently Mathew clenched and unclenched his jaw,

"It's alright mom,when one loses his mate there's not much left for that person ofcourse he was going to die first,you're alive,your mate is too even though he's a bag of dick and…."

"Did I just hear you call me a bag of dick wow son how nice of you!"

Mathew paused as he gently turned towards the sound of his father before a slow smirk curled his lips,

"Didn't think you'd be here"

Mathew said before shaking his dad's hand,

"You know I have to be here for your mom,work might be important but she comes first!"

Dale said as he swatted Mathews hand away from Martha's shoulders and picked up Martha before kissing her while holding her in the air.

Mathew stood there watching them with a smile on his face,he had always adorned his parents marriage and had one day hoped for something like that but he knew he was never going to get something like that with anybody if it wasn't Mae,the thought of her made his mood go sour as much as he loved her he hated her for what she did, she left him without so much of an explanation of why,she didn't even write him a letter,as if sensing their little display had put Mathew in a bad mood Dale dropped Martha back on the ground,

"I'm guessing you haven't found her yet!"

Martha said grabbing her son's hand, shaking his head Mathew pretended like he didn't even know where Mae was,he obviously couldn't tell his parents that he put a tracking device in her and has kept watch ever since or that he masturbates to the blinking dot on the map,he definitely didn't want his parents to know he had another side, another different side that he himself didn't know about until Mae came along, sighing he stopped his train of thoughts as he gently rubbed his mom's palm before bringing it to his lips for a quick kiss,he could see the little tick in his dad's jaw, smiling he brought out his tongue to lick her skin,

"Stop that you fool!"

Dale said snatching Martha's hand from his,

"Oh you boys stop that…. Daley you do realize he's my son right? I mean after all these years I figured your possessive attitude would have worn off" Martha said with a scowl on her face,

"It will wear off the day we die,infact Mathew when we die make sure to bury us together I want other skeletons to know she's mine!"

Dale said making Martha laugh and Mathew smile,he knew his dad had became weary of him since he grew up,his dad loved him no doubt but his dad will never leave he and his mom alone in one room that's how much his dad was possessive of his mom that even her son felt like a threat and he understood that quite well because he would do the same thing if it was Mae.

"Oh oh here comes our other boy!"

Dale said interrupting Mathew from his thoughts,

"Ah shit!"

Mathew said as he watched Dominco approach him,

"You cocksucker…"

"Language!"

Martha shouted as Dale chuckled,

"Sorry aunty,but your son right here needs to know what he is,dude I was waiting for you I didn't want to hear all the sorry bullshit by myself!"

Dominco said sighing,

"Remember you took me to that party and got me wasted,who was it that said I needed to stop thinking about Mae and get a life and I did,now you're here spitting bulls because I missed dad's burial…"

"Well I'm your dad I'm here and not in the ground you know, just call him uncle or something!"

Dale Said as Martha shoved him in the guts before turning to walk away, groaning Mathew and Dominco smiled as Dale held his stomach and ran after his wife,

"Well I'm sorry..I was uh caught up in something"

Mathew said earning himself a wink from Dominco,

"Shut up!"

"I didn't even say anything!"

Dominco said chuckling,"so how was she? Any good?!"

Dominco asked out of curiosity as he watched his best friend and cousin shake his head,

"Aw shit that bad?!"
