Before you

34.

It's been a week since we adopted Jack and it's been hectic.

He was so full of energy and mischievous, I guess that's why Lando liked him so much.

He fell in love with him the first time he saw him and I was against it for a while.
We both didn't have much time, we were both busy with our jobs.

But when I saw Jack, I fell in love too.

We couldn't just not adopt him. We had to.

But it seemed as if we weren't that great at having a dog, because I was already looking for Jack for about half an hour.

I looked on the balcony, in the living room, kitchen, bathroom. Literally everywhere and I couldn't find him.

"Baby! We are back" Lando said as he walked in the apartment.

With Jack.

"Did you take him to the store?" I frowned, looked down at Jack as he ran through the apartment.

"Yes I did" he said, put the bag in the kitchen and walked back to the living room.

"Please tell me next time, I was looking for him, I was worried" I rolled my eyes.

Lando laughed at that, walked up to the couch and sat down to take his shoes off. "I forgot, I'll let you know next time"

I nodded. "Thanks" I picked Jack up and walked to the living room as well. "Isn't it time we address the Francesca situation?" I said as I sat down with Jack on my lap.

Lando groaned, just like he always did when he heard her name. "No, we don't"

"So you're just gonna forget about what was in the papers?"

He nodded, grabbed the tv remote and laid down on the couch. "That exactly what I am gonna do, is that fine with you?"

"Not really" I said. "I think you should at least talk to her"

"I don't wanna talk to her, I talked to her way too much already" he mumbled.

Jack crawled off my lap and walked to Lando, plopped down on his chest. It's like he felt if someone needed his comfort.

And right now, Lando definitely needed it.

"But what if it isn't a lie?"

He sighed, rolled his eyes slightly. "Everything Francesca says is a lie, everything. We've already talked about that"

"Yeah but that was befo-"

"Drop it Riley" he interrupted me, looked me straight in the eyes.

"I am going to bed" I mumbled, got up and walked to the bedroom.

Maybe this was exactly what she wanted, to create tension between us, that we would fight and break up.

And I hated it. We never went to bed angry.

I just wanted the best for him. I didn't want him to think that I wouldn't want his daughter in our lives.

But maybe I had to drop it, maybe he was right about all of it. I didn't know Francesca, but everyone else did.

And they all said the same thing. Don't trust or believe her. She lies, all the time.

I grabbed the Quadrant shirt and shorts that I always wore to sleep in and laid down in bed.

Lando ❤️

Guess I'll just lay in bed
Alone
Cold
By myself
W nobody to cuddle with
All alone

Do you need someone to cuddle with?

I need my two favorite guys

We're on our way ❤️

And only a few minutes later, Lando walked in, holding Jack.

He tilted his head a little. "Did someone say cuddles?"

"Yes, I want cuddles" I nodded, opened my arms and Jack started wiggling his tail as he crawled on top of me. "And also from you" I said as I looked at Lando.

He chuckled, crawled next to me and wrapped his arms around me.

I've never experienced love like this, but I felt so loved as we were all laying together in bed.

Jack fell asleep on the bed pretty soon. He was still a puppy so he could fall asleep anywhere and almost instantly.

"I am sorry" Lando mumbled, put his hand under my shirt and brushed his fingers against my back. "We almost never fought and now we are fighting because of Francesca all the time"

"I am sorry too" I sighed. "You're right. I don't know her and I'll drop it from now on"

"You promise?"

I nodded. "I do"

He kissed the top of my head, before we both fell asleep.

I loved this little family so damn much.
