The image above is of Jake. Just imagine the light blue being white, the tip of the tail being cyan and the eyes being green.

Tom's P.o.V

"Jake" Emily said and I looked down at Jake. "So this is my son?" I asked smiling. "Yes Tom. It's our son" she said and kissed me. "You've made my life 10 times happier. I love you so much" I said and hugged her. "Yeah but I don't know how we're gonna keep this a secret. Hiding our love is one easy thing but hiding a baby is another" Emily said worried. "Well, I'm sure we'll figure something out" I said and cuddled Jake. "Hello Jake, I'm your daddy" I said and a little bit of a smile appeared on his little face and he said something in the language babies talk in. "Hey, I think he already likes you" Emily said and I tickled his belly a little making him giggle. "Here, you can hold him" I said handing him over to Emily. "Thanks Tom, hello Jake, I'm your mummy" she said and Jake giggled again. He sat up and hugged Emily's breast. "I think he wants to be fed" I said and Emily giggled a little. "Alright I'll keep him here until he doesn't need breast milk. But after that, we alternate weeks, okay?" Emily said. "Sure, I wouldn't want to miss anything. I'll be round every day and night to see him" I said. "What about your friends?" Emily said and my ears drooped. "Me and Ryan had a falling out earlier as I've been out with you so much and hardly played with him" I said a little upset. "Oh, sorry about that. But now we have a child which will make up for it. And in time I'm sure you'll make up" Emily said as I opened the window. "Okay, see you tomorrow. Bye Jake" I said waving at him and climbed out the window.

4 Days Later

It had been hard taking care of Jake but it was fun. Emily had found her old crib in the attic and I brought it down so Jake would have somewhere to sleep, other than in Emily's draw. "I like the way he has your eyes but my cyan tail" I said smiling. Jake was sleeping in his crib and me and Emily were standing next to him. "Yeah, he is adorable" Emily said. "What would happen though, if my parents find him?" She said. "They won't Emily. We leave him at day care when we're at school and as I've seen they hardly come in your room when you're here" I said and she smiled a bit. "Yeah, I guess you're right" she said hugging me and I kissed her forehead. "You do realise though, this won't be a secret forever. Our families will find out one day. But let's try and delay that for as long as possible" I said. "Yeah, I know. It's fine though, when they do we can run right?" Emily said and we laughed a little. "Yeah, let's run to the hills" I said. She put her head against my chest and I hugged her tightly. "I'll never let anyone hurt you, ever. That's a promise" I said and kissed her head. "Thank you Tom. But not even you can protect me from everything. That's why Derek can help" she said and I just sighed. "Not with Jake. I haven't told him yet" I said and Emily looked up at me. "Why not? Do you think he might flip out again?" She said. "A little, but I feel like he would also be mad at Rebecca if we had a kid before them, as they're engaged and we're just boyfriend and girlfriend" I said. "And teenage parents" Emily added and I chuckled. "Oh yeah, and teenage parents" I said. I looked over at the clock and it was nearly 10:30. "I need to go, don't want my parents looking for me" I said kissing her. "Goodnight Jake, daddy loves you" I said and kissed Jake gently on the head. I went and climbed out the window and ran home.

2 Months Later

Emily has been aiming to finish breast feeding by next month so I can have Jake for a while. I found my old crib which was Derek's before mine. I hid it in one of the gaps in my walls, where the wall comes out, goes in then comes out again. I have been at Emily's a lot and I feel like Jake will be speaking very soon. He can almost say mum and dad but it's more of 'muu a daa'. "Tommy, you gonna start the game?" Derek said. "Uh, yeah sure lets go" I said starting up the match on Nuk3town. "Snipers only Tommy" Derek said and I had a flashback of my fight with Ryan. "Um, okay. So it's a quickscope match" I said and Derek nodded. "Let's play" I said getting my Locus class out. We began playing and it was hard getting kills but we did and we had fun. "No scope" I said jumping and spamming R2. Surprisingly I hit him and he looked shocked. "Yeah, final kill cam" I said and he punched my arm. "Hacker" he said and I gasped. "Me a hacker! Oh no I believe its called skill" I said making my character dance. "Alright Tommy I gotta go. Work calls" he said getting up. "Wait, can I have a lift again?" I said. "Fine Tommy. But you need to start walking" he said as we walked downstairs. "Hey Tom, here's money for lunch" my mum said and hugged me. "Bye mum" I said and me and Derek walked out the door.

"Ryan, wait up" I said. It was lunch and Ryan had been ignoring me since we fought. "What do you want?!" He said pissed. "Look, I'm sorry that I haven't been hanging out with you so much. But don't do this, I haven't seen other friends since the end of summer and we're still friends" I said but his expression didn't change. "I don't care, we were best friends Tom. But now you're off with some other people" Ryan said and turned to leave but I grabbed his shirt. "Okay Ryan, I'll tell you why I haven't been on as much. I've got a girlfriend. I've been spending so much time with her that I forgot about you and my other friends. I'm sorry" I said and he smiled a bit. "Why didn't you say you had a girlfriend? I would have been fine. And I will keep it a secret" he said. "You will?" I said. "Yeah, I don't think that you'd be alive if Emily's dad found out you were dating his daughter" Ryan said and giggled. "How did you know it was her?" I asked. "You've been obsessed with her Tom. It's quite obvious" he said and I realised what he meant. "Yeah, I'll have to stop drawing her. So, friends again?" I said. "Sure Tom" he said and we bro hugged. I was good to be friends again.

Hey guys, sorry this chapter was shorter than the others and probably not as engaging or fun to read, I'm beginning to run out of ideas. Thanks for not hating on my book, I was expecting a lot of that. Bye for now.
