“Hey, Mrs. A, thanks for having us over!” Liam hugged Cole’s mom before going to smell the spaghetti on the stove.
“If you stick your fingers in there, Liam, I will cut them off.” Mrs. Andrews smiled at her son’s best friend as she waved the large knife that she had been using to cut vegetables.
“Mom,” Cole came in and kissed her cheek, “Stop threatening to dismember people. It’s not nice.”
Mrs. Andrew’s rolled her eyes. “I don’t threaten strangers, just the ones I love.”
“Thanks, Mrs. A!” Liam laughed, shoving off the counter, “It smells amazing. Can we help with anything?”
Cole smacked the back of Liam’s head. “What the hell, man? Now she is going to make us work.”
Mrs. Andrews snapped her dish towel, catching Cole’s hind end.
Liam was laughing his butt off. “Mrs. A, I love you.”
“Stop perving on my mom!” Cole grumbled.
Mrs. Andrews was used to their banter; shaking her head with amusement she asked, “Boys, I need you to set the table. And Cole, watch your mouth. You are not too old to be washed out with soap.”
Cole made a face. “You should have heard the language coming out of Katie-cat.”
Katie rounded the corner after just returning from the bathroom. “Whatever he is saying is a lie, Mrs. A. It smells awesome, did you make spaghetti?”
Katie walked over to the rich red marinara that was simmering on the stove top. Taking a deep breath, she sighed happily, “I love you, Mrs. A.”
Liam busted up laughing again. “Cole doesn’t like it when we perve on his mom. Besides I saw her first!”
