The Bad Boy ~ Jaden Hossler

La Di Die

I checked the notification and it said 'I want my man back'. I show Jaden the text and he holds me.

"I'll never leave you for her I promise..."

"Ok..." I fiddle with my fingers and look down.

"Baby I love you." He holds my chin up.

"I love you, too." I hug him and bring the kids in.

"I love you mommy and daddy!" Jackson excitingly says, not knowing what's going on.

"We love you too." I smile and hug him and Alana.

We all go downstairs and see Bryce grabbing a white claw.

"What? You said like once a day." He says, white claw dripping from his lip. Jaden and I just laugh. I go and hug Bryce and sneak a sip of the watermelon flavored white claw. "Hey!"

"Mmmmm yummy!" I say, licking my lips. Josh walks in a laughs and grabs a banana.

"Uncle Josh!!!" Jackson runs to Josh with Alana right behind him, trying to run but falling and getting right back up.

"Buddies!" He says, arms wide out and gives them a huge hug and gives me a sympathetic look as I give it back. I know he wants to tell Jackson that he's his true dad but Jackson's only four he won't understand.

"I wanna play with Uncle Josh today!!" Jackson pouts, hugging Josh. Alana doesn't really know how to talk but understands what we say. She knows very little words. All she does is nod.

"Uh- I don't know..." I say, thinking.

"Oh come on Bri. I'll take good care of your kids. Like they're my own!" He gives a hint that he should be able to hang out with his son.

"Fine, Jaden and I have something to figure out anyway." I roll my eyes and chuckles in defeat. I just can't win with these kids!

"Yayyyyyyyy!!!" Jackson throws his hands up in the air as Alana does the same with her hands, laughing.

"Oh what's going on?" Josh asks, letting go of the kids.

"Mads." Jaden walks in from grabbing a water and a granola bar to hold him over.

"Oh god what is she doing this time?"

"She texted me that she wants Jaden back..."

"But I'm not letting that happen." Jaden says, firmly grabbing my waist with his arm.

"Who's Mads?" Jackson asks.

"Mads." Alana repeats.

"No that's not a name we say in the house. She's a mean lady. Monster. Really mean!" Josh says for the kids to understand. "She tries to take daddy away from you."

"No I don't wanna lose daddy!!!" Jackson runs over to Jaden. We all laugh and Josh just chuckles.

"Don't worry, kid, you won't lose me." Jaden hugs him and hugs him tight. He lets go and we say goodbye to the boys and kids and go to Mads' house. We ring the doorbell and she answers.

"Oh my god! Jaden! Hey!" She hugs Jaden and he pushes her off. "Ohhhh, hey... you!" She fake smiles.

"What was that text about, Mads?" Jaden gets straight to the point.

"No 'hey!' 'How ya been'?" We both look at her. "...Anyway, come in!" We both step in her house and sit on her couch.

"I just wanted to let your little girlfriend know that you will always be mine and not hers. And I'll make sure of that or else she'll want to end her life because of me. So I suggest you, little miss 'steal your man' girl, give me back what's mine." She glares at me.
