Bump

Stay.

"Come on let's go inside" JJ says softly

Kiara nods

"Heyy" John B starts as the pair walk in.

"You good?" He says worried as he can see she's been crying.

"Fine" kiara whispers as she walks over to him to pick up Lilly.

Her big blue eyes stare up at her and she immediately feels some weight leave her, she just feels so much love for her. She hugs her closely, closing her eyes for a moment.

Kiara takes a few deep breaths and sits down next to John B.

JJ's looking on with a smile, until him notices a mark on her face. He walks over to wears she's sat and touches her cheek.

"Kie ..... what's that"

"What"

He brushes his thumb over the mark and she flinches.

"Was this your parents?" He asks calmly.

She just looks up at him sadly.

John B's looking at JJ in anticipation, he feels sad for what kies dealing with her parents, but he knows JJ's past which worries him.

"Ok" JJ nods trying to bite his tongue

"JJ it's fine..."

"No it's not fine!"

"Dude chill" John B says

"no no screw this! I'm going over there"

"No JJ wait..." kies shouts after him but she's too late and the door slams shut.

"Shit"

"Shit" John B agrees.

———————————————————————————

JJ gets of his bike and walks up once again to the big White House.

*knock knock

He waits, but this time no nerves are present, he's overwhelmed by anger that these people have hurt someone he really cares about, he didn't realise how much until this very moment.

Mike opens the door. "JJ" he sighs

"Mike" JJ nods with a obviously fake smile.

"Can I come in?"

Mike steps aside letting her in.

"What's he doing here?" Anna says in almost disgust as she sees him.

" 'he' would like to know what the hell you think your doing hitting your daughter?!" JJ snaps

"You don't know what your talking about" Anna huffs

"So kiara slapped herself then?" He asks sarcastically.

"Look JJ we don't have to explain ourselves to you" Mike sighs

"Then explain to your daughter!"

"Look JJ! We do everything we can to protect our daughter!"

"So do I!" JJ yells "That's why I'm here!"

Anna laughs

"Why's that funny?"

"Sorry I just find it funny that you think you know anything about being a parent, you will ruin that little girls life, just like you've ruined my daughters!"

This hurts JJ, he can't help but wonder if kiara feels that way.

"Ruined her life? You told her to give Lilly up for adoption!"

"It would be for the best, that little girl..."

"No! Not that little girl, MY little girl, mine and Kiaras, what we do has nothing to do with you" JJ interrupts.

"She our granddaughter" Mike buts in

"I think you've given up that right? Don't you? From now on I don't want you anywhere near her!"

"JJ let's not be unreasonable..." Mike says

"Unreasonable? Don't make me laugh. Anyway I've said what I came here to say so I'll be off now.." he give a salute and then the middle finger and heads for the door.

"She'll be back you know, when she's had enough slumming it with you, she come crawling back" Anna says smug.

"You just keep telling yourself that"

Kiaras waiting on the porch steps nervously when JJ arrives back at the chateau.

"Hey"

"Hey" he replies

"How'd it go?"

"Pfff amazing, couldn't have gone any better" he jokes

"Sure" she laughs

"Kie ... do you want to go back home?"

"What why? Don't you want me here?" She says sadly

"What no no that's not what I meant" JJ panics "I just don't want you to regret anything"

"You can't live life with regrets JJ" she laughs as she repeats his own words to him.

"So you want to stay?"

"If you'll have me"
