The picture used for this chapter is CJ. He's a sweetheart and I love him with all my heart.

Miranda went to the studio with Mike so I'm on kid duty while she's gone. Right now we're watching the hot top 20 on TV. I'm hoping gonna know we were here will be number one soon. He's sitting on my lap while we're laying in my recliner, his head on my chest. "You don't mind me callin' ya daddy?" He asks abruptly. "Course not buddy. I like that you call me daddy." He was fiddling with my necklace while I watched the top 20. Brantley is on there, hosting with him. Number nine on the list is Brad's celebrity song. It's bumped up four more. "There's been rumors going around that your first dance was to a Brad Paisely song." Cody says. "Am I right?" He smirks and hides his face a little with his ball cap. "Yeah but don't tell him. Brad has great song but he's pretty intimidatin'." I laugh slightly. Brad intimidates Brantley? Badass of country music? So weird. Then my song comes on number eight! "Oh yeah up three since last week!" I gasp, sitting up. "Yay!" He gasps, standing up and singing to it. I smile watching him. When the song goes over, Miranda walks through the door. She smiles when she sees him. "How was the studio?" I ask. "Good. We're booked and ready! I'm so excited! I'm finally going on tour!" I'm so glad I could do that for her. Sam Hunt's break up in a small town is number one this week. "I don't like that one." CJ says, sitting cross legged on the floor. "Ok bedtime buddy." I say, getting up. "Ooh will you read me a story?" He cries, standing up. "Sure."

He takes CJ and I turn the TV to music choice. I turn the lights down low. I hear Jason reading a story to him and CJ laughing. I go upstairs to check on them and he's dozing off. Jason kisses his head and I sneak back downstairs.

*later*

We were cuddling in the recliner listening to music and talking. My head on his shoulder and our fingers laced together. "Ya know what CJ's first word was?" I whisper. "What was that baby?" He asks, kissing me. "Your name. He was asking me to put your night train CD in." "Wow, you weren't kidding then when you said that he's been a fan since he could talk." I laugh slightly and nod which he silences with another kiss. I just love being with this man. He makes my heart whole.

*the next day*

I try to keep CJ quiet while I make breakfast. Miranda's still asleep. I hope she stays like that. I got a buddy of mine to make a special coffee mug with a message in the bottom. I poured her morning coffee and fixed eggs and bacon for my little man. He's laughing while watching a video on my phone. I put a finger to my lips and he stops laughing. I peek into the living room where she's still asleep. I'm so excited. The front door opens waking her up and pissing me off. Who is that? She obviously doesn't like whoever it is. I walk out of the kitchen and she runs and hides behind me. "Who is he?" "My boss! From when I worked.... Well you know." I nod. "What do ya want?" I gripe. He looks pissed. "I want my dancer back! I've been looking for her for months!" He yells. "She ain't your dancer anymore!" I shout back. "Go to the kitchen babe."

I run to the kitchen and CJ reaches his hands up to me. "Sissy!" He whimpers. I pick him up and hold him tight. "It's okay baby boy, Jason'll stop him." I say, sitting down against the wall and holding him in my lap and crying. I hear them fighting and I can't stop crying. I'm so scared.

I finally get my pistol out of my holster and point it at him as he's on the ground from me knocking him to the ground. "Ya got five seconds to walk out that front door and never come back. And never bother my girl or my son again! Unless you want me to pull this damn trigger cause I will! Nothin' and I mean nothin' will come between me and my family!" He backs up and stands up. "Fine you can keep that whore." "She ain't a damn whore!" I yell, almost shooting him but holding back. "Get out!" Thankfully he leaves. I drop my pistol and walk back into the kitchen. "Baby?" "Over here." CJ runs over and I pick him up. "You okay hun?" "I am now. Thanks." I hug her tight with one arm, the other still holding CJ. She was crying but she stopped and we sat down for breakfast. I just remembered! The coffee! I bring it to her, a hand in my pocket. I suppress a smile so she doesn't ask why I'm smiling after getting in a fight.

I'm pretty shaken after waking up to that asshole. At least Jason was able to take care of me. CJ and Jason keep shooting looks at each other. I raise an eyebrow. "What's going on?" They both stay quiet, wide eyed. "We're uh just playing a game." He says, looking at CJ and trying not to laugh. I shrug it off and finish my coffee. My eyes go wide. What's that? What is in the bottom of my cup? It's words. Oh my God! Written at the bottom of the cup is 'Will you marry me?' I drop the cup in shock and look at Jason. He sets a ring on the table. "Oh my gosh, Jason! Yes!" I gasp, hugging him. I fight back the tears and kiss him hard. He puts the ring on my finger. "I love you baby." "Oh I love you too." Tears course down my cheeks. "I'm so glad little man ran out at the red carpet." "Me too." I whisper. We lock eyes and kiss hard. Then CJ climbs into his lap. He pats his head and hugs us both. "I have a family now." He says, kissing me again.
