Okay let me just start off by saying, this is not how I pictured my life going. My name is Emmarie Ethridge. I am 19 and hardly ready to live in this world of adulthood I'm being thrown into. At the moment I live in a town in Colorado named Loveland...
Today was the day Kade was flying in. I'm honestly so scared...
Grayson keeps acting like its no big deal, that everything is just dandy and fine and its pissing me off. Everything is not fine!
Jaxon decided to fully move in with Zoey which was nice considering we now need the space; I'm pretty sure Hannah is just planning on Kade staying here for good. Which means Kade is going to have to get his act together.
Its been a week since I talked to Hannah about everything so this is kind of a quick move. I'm just praying that Kade will take it easy on me.
"Want me to drive?" Grayson asked as we walked to the car.
Usually I like to drive but with how big my belly has gotten its has been harder to, "Yes please!"
Grayson helped me up into the jeep, I've been so dependent on him. I can not wait to have this baby; life is getting rough.
We got to the airport a tad bit earlier so we decided to go in and wait for Kade at his arrival gate.
I sat in one of the chairs in a waiting area, airports made me feel kind of sad. There were so many people hugging their loved ones and upset to see them leaving, and here I am, scared to see my little brother. I haven't seen Kade since Breck was found, and I haven't even considered visiting him. I feel like my siblings and I are part of the reason he acts the way he does, we kind of threw him to the side and moved on with our own lives.
Our family got completely destroyed and Kade needed us, but we shipped him off to Oregon instead. Maybe all he needed was some attention.
After awhile of silence and my deep thinking, Grayson broke me out of my deep thoughts.
"You okay Hun?" He had been holding my hand the whole time and I hadn't even noticed till now.
I looked over to him smiling, "I'm good, just nervous..."
"I know you are, it's okay to be scared. I think he might be as well." I don't know what had gotten in to Grayson lately but everything he has been saying about this whole situation was accurate and so mature. He saw the things that I couldn't, he saw the bigger picture of all of it; and that was the fact that Kade and I really just needed each other.
I took a deep breath sighing, "You know, I think you are going to make a great little daddy."
"That's kind of random, but thanks." He laughed. "Well we both already know you are going to be the greatest mom ever." He wrapped his arm around my shoulders pulling me in closer to him.
"No way! I'm a wreck..."
He kissed my forehead, laughing. "no you're perfect babygirl."
"Hey, when we have the baby, you wont be able to call me that!" I looked up giving him a huge frown!
"Yeah I will! I'll just have two babygirls." His smile made me happy, and gave me butterflies. Which always caused my little baby girl to kick and move around. She knew when her daddy made me happy, and it made her happy. "Did she just kick?"
I giggled, "Yeah, could you feel it?"
"Yeah! Right here." He pulled away from me to show me where she kicked him. I knew already but I thought it was funny.
"She's gotten be a pain in your ass one day!" She's already kicking her daddy, just wait till she's a teenager.
Once I said that, people started walking out. Of course Kade was the last one out, taking his time.
He walked out carrying his backpack on one shoulder. He looked so different since the last time I had seem him. He was the same height at least, much taller than Jaxon, but not as tall as Grayson. His longer dark hair had now been cut and shortened, and his hair looked more blonde.
Kade saw us from across the way and headed towards us, giving me a huge grin.
He pulled me into a hug, straight out of Grayson's arms, without even acknowledging his presence. "Emma, God I missed you!" He buried his head in my shoulder, it reminded me of the time I picked up Jaxon from the airport.
Flashback
I looked over and saw a couple more people come out, and then Jaxon!
I ran to my brother and gave him the biggest hug I think I've ever gave anyone; I was so happy. I even teared up a bit. I had Hannah and Kade at home this whole time, but I needed my big brother with me. He always protected me, my entire life, then he just left one day.
"Jaxon I really don't think you realized how much I missed you!" I still had yet to release him from my death grip hug!
He kissed my forehead, "Trust me I missed you more!" He let me hug him just a little longer than requested that he would be released.
End of Flashback
Once again Gray's logic was making sense; Kade needed me, like I once needed Jaxon.
Kade let his death grip on me loosen and he stepped back and looked down, "Wow, you are pregnant."
"Seriously? Did you not believe me?"
He glared over at Grayson, "nah, just didn't think this guy had it in him."
"Kade..." I rolled my eyes, he just shrugged innocently.

Grayson didn't reply, instead just ignored Kade's snarky comment. "Um alright well let's get going!" I broke in between their intense eye contact.
I have a feeling Grayson doesn't realize what he has gotten him self into by agreeing to this yet.
Kade and Grayson haven't ever really talked, when we were younger Jaxon and the twin's barley paid attention to me let alone Kade. I feel like they aren't going to get along too well, hopefully Kade is at least gets along with Ethan, or hell at least Jaxon.
All I know, it that this is going to be extremely difficult...
