Vanessa's Baby

Playdate

After they had gone I put some clothes on and took Celina to the park. When I sat our stuff down on the bench she immediately ran to the playground and I followed making sure to keep an eye on the bench. As Celina was coming down the long slide I heard a familiar voice behind me.

"Liv?" I turned around to see Jack standing behind me holding an ice cream cone.

"Hey babe! What are you doing here?" I said running over and locking  him in a hug.

"Just thought I would get out for awhile, why didn't you tell me you had Celina today?"

"I didn't know before an hour ago"

"Oh" he smiled his big goofy smile and hugged me again.

He wrapped his hand around my waist and walked with me right back to Celina, she recognized him and ran to him expecting him to pick her up, which he did. "Hey little one" he lifted her above his head then pulled her down to kiss her cheek.

"Celina can you say Jack?" I said hoping to surprise him.

"Jat!" She squealed playfully.

"Close enough"

After Celina finished playing we went out for lunch, the waitress sat us down and looked at me confused "aren't you guys a little young to be parents"

"Oh she isn't ours" I said cluelessly.

"Ok?" She mumbled putting our menus down. She walked away and Jack and I continued our previous conversation while Celina continued to color

"I really miss getting to see you everyday."

"I know but between work and mom being pregnant-"

"Your mom is pregnant?!" He reacted with such enthusiasm.

"She has been for awhile now"

"I can't wait until we have kids"

"Woah dude, slow it down! I mean, I don't even know if I want kids"

"Wha- but the last time we talked about it you seemed ok with it."

"I know but things change."

"Yeah." He mumbled looking away from me.

"Babe please done hate me"

"I don't hate you I just really wanted to be a dad but it's your decision"

"Who knows what could happen, I mean we might not even be together in ten years" He looked at me like he was hurt "oh my gosh I'm so sorry, that's not what I meant at all"

"It's fine."

"Are you sure" I felt like such an asshole and I could feel the hot tears bubbling up from the embarrassment.

"Liv, it's okay. I know you didn't mean it that way" he put his hand on top of mine from across the table and half smiled at me.

"Thanks"

When the waitress came back with our drinks, she asked if we were ready to order and of course we had to waste ten minutes of her time trying to figure out what Celina wanted to eat. She finally set her mind on chicken tenders and baby carrots. I handed the waitress our menus and smiled as she sarcastically smiled and snatched the menus out of my hand. I flipped her off with her back was turned hoping she wouldn't see me. I pulled my phone and took a couple of pictures with him while also gushing about how cute Celina was.

When our food was brought out Celina made a mess with the ketchup and we ended up having to clean her up in the bathroom before we left, Jack drove us back because we had walked to the park. When we did actually get home Jack walked me to the door. "I'm so glad your mom helped me plan this" he flashed a sly smirk and kissed my head

"What? You planned this?" I giggled.

"Yeah, I thought it would be fun to see you and the little one"

"I love you, ya big goofball!" I leaned in for a kiss but was interrupted by Celina crying "awe what's wrong sweetheart"

She stuck out her bottom lip and put her arms out for Jack, he grabbed her and let her snuggle into his chest. "I'll come in and help put her down for a nap." We both climbed the stairs and went straight my my room. I kicked my shoes off and fell onto my bed with Celina in the middle of Jack and I, she rolled over from Jack and clung to me resting her head in between my cleavage.

Before I knew it Jack was snoring and so was I.
