Jennifer Jareau's Daughter

Chapter 10

JJ's POV:

I smile excitedly as I watch my two kids drawing. I never thought I'd see the day where my oldest and youngest would be in the same room. I've always imagined what it would have looked like to see them bonding. I wipe a tear as I smile. I'm interrupted from admiring when I feel Will wrap his arms around me.

"Look at them already acting as siblings." Will says happily

"I'm really happy that you accepted her so easily." I say as I turn around to face him

"Why wouldn't I? She's yours everything you do is perfect." Will says kissing me

"I can't wait for the day she call you dad. I know she will by the way she looks at you." I say hugging him

"I already love her as much as Henry it doesn't matter if she's mine or not." Will states

Before I can respond to Will I am interrupted. I see Henry start to run up to us. He has the biggest smile as he carries a piece of paper. He is standing there excitedly.

"Look mom look at what Max drew me." He says showing me the paper

"Wow that's really good she drew that dolphin bud?" Will asks as I show him the paper

"Yeah Max said I can show it to my friends at school tomorrow." Henry says smiling

"Wow did you thank her for the drawing?" I ask him as he nods

"Yeah and the best part is she said she's gonna hang my drawing I gave her in her room." Henry says

"That's sweet buddy! Did you show her where her room is?" I ask remembering I never did that

"Yeah she is in there right now hanging up my drawing. I told her where to put it on the wall." Henry says happily

"Wow that was awfully nice of you buddy." Will says picking him up

"Why doesn't dad put you to bed tonight?" I ask

"Okay mommy tell Max she better finish my other drawing before I wake up tomorrow." Henry says seriously

"I will do that bud." I says kissing his head as I watch will bring him upstairs

I sigh as I make my way towards Max' s room. I stand in the doorway waiting for her to notice me. I watch as she sighs walking to her closet and back to her bed. I watch as she keeps unpacking her small suitcase putting her clothes in the closet. I also watch as she takes her art book from her bag putting it on the table. Lastly I watch as she pulls out the last thing from her bag. I stare in shock as she pulls out the baby blanket I gave her when she was born. Once she makes sure everything is put away she out her suitcase under her bed. As she goes to sit on her bed she notices me.

"Hey how long have you been there?" Max asks pulling me out of my shock state

"Not too long." I say quickly staring at the blanket

"Thanks for hanging out with Henry he was so excited about the drawing." I say smiling

"It's not problem. I actually like him. I was nervous at first but he calmed me down." Max says grabbing her sketch pad from the desk

"He told me you are making him another drawing?" I ask

"Yeah he wanted me to make him a dragon. I have most of it done. Just need to add some finishing touches and the fire." Max says showing me the dragon

"Wow you're really good. How long have you been drawing?" I ask as I watch her finish the drawing

"Umm for five years now. I started drawing at five. My teachers quickly noticed I had a talent for it." Max says shrugging

"I have so much to learn about you." I say to her as I get up kissing her head

"Don't stay up too late." I say making my way out

"Tell Will I said night." Max says as I nod as I leave the room

Once I get back to my room I quickly get ready for bed. I notice Will is already asleep. Once I climb back into bed I cuddle up to him. He grabs my hand in his sleep and I smile. I am so happy that today went so well. I quickly fall asleep with the hope that tomorrow morning goes just as smoothly.
