Alex and Jackson walked back to the patio area joining the rest of the guest at the party. Alex joined in on a conversation with King Charles and Karmen's father inviting them to come back in the fall to go deer hunting with him and Jackson.
Jackson walked over to the table where Ethan was setting motioning with his hand for his grandfather to set down beside him
" Have a seat Van."Jackson called out to his grandfather giving him a new casual nickname.
King Evander smiled in approval, taking a seat beside Jackson. Jackson took the opportunity to tell his grandfather more about Ethan hoping they would become better acquainted with each other.
"Van, Ethan is Karmen's brother, but I've actually known Ethan longer than I have Karmen he's been a good friend of mine for about eight years now."
King Evander nodded " Is that how you two met through Ethan."
Ethan chuckled, " Oh hell no, I never thought my sister would be into someone like his wild ass."
" Jackson chuckled, " Can't blame you, it's not like Karmen would ever do any of the things we use to."
" Yeah, I can't believe she's going with us tomorrow night." Ethan said turning to glance over to King Evander, " Your going with us aren't you."
King Evander looked at Jackson confused
"Oh hell I forgot,we're having a little outing tomorrow night, you got to come with us. We're taking the girls and Alex to a couple of clubs we used to hangout at."
King Evander rubbed his chin looking as he was in heavy thought. " Hum, now should I guess what kinda of clubs you're talking about."
Ethan chuckled, " Man you got to come with us . Lexi has agreed to put money in strippers panties."
" I not doing that " Karmen grumbled
Ethan rolled his eyes, glancing over towards King Evander " I guess you know now ,why I never introduced her to my man here. I never wanted him to be stuck with someone like that."
Jackson grinned, " I'm glad I had a brother, I really don't know how I'd feel about you going out with my sister."
"Damm Eddington that really hurts,So I guess what you're saying Is if I see a hot chick at the wedding to keep my hands off." Ethan said ,pretending to be heartbroken placing his hand on his chest.
Jackson shook his head, "No there's going to be one chick there and I'd really like you to try your luck "
" What is it, is she a lesbian or something."
" No man, she's not a lesbian, but she's a real hell -cat . She needs a man to show her ass she's not all that."
King Evander placed his hand over his mouth to stifle the laughter trying to escape his lips ,mumbling from beneath his hand.
" Now Jackson I know you can't be talking about your sweet little cousin Brooklyn."
" Have you been out with this chick " Ethan ask ,giving King Evander a suspicious eye.
King Evander waved both hands in front of him pleading innocent. " No, she's not my type."
" Is this bitch ugly." Ethan curiously asked
Jackson chuckled, " No man, she's hot, I'm telling you she's just." He paused a moment before continuing what he was going to say. " Ok, she's just stuck up and stuck on herself. She's tall and thin like Lexi
and has black hair and green eyes like my mother. But she's not sweet and kind like Lexi or my mother.
" Don't sound like my type either." Ethan howl out through bouts of laughter that was cut short by his mother glaring in his direction.
Automatically he stood up holding his glass in the air smiling " I'd like to propose a toast to both of my sisters and their fiancé's . May you have a world of happiness and a long life together." He announced cheerfully bringing everyone one in the room closer to each other to bump their glasses together.
As the family stood beside the table toasting the two couples the maids stated taking the food back to the kitchen and replacing it with gift bags full of luxurious bath soap and lotion for the ladies and hand made cigars for the gentle man.
Alex glancing over his shoulder to see what was happening and spotted the young maid Harper helping place the gift bags on the table. He glanced up at Jackson clearing his throat to get his attention.
Jackson glanced around to see what had took Alex's attention away from the cheerful toast his eyes landing on the maids he nodded at Alex and he stepped closer to his grandfather whispering low in his ear.
" there she is the young one in the middle with dark blonde hair."
King Evander lifted his head to peer over at the young maid Jackson was talking about , he turned and placed his glass on the table sauntering over to where the maids stood.
He smiled, "Excuse me ladies, I seemed to miss placed my lighter, you haven't perhaps seen it over here have you?"
