Summary: Baby ( Y/C/N ) is 5 years old and playing at the park with someone who has a person with them that rings a few bells.
Triggers: sad, again. cussing I think? im not sure lol
Time period: Present

" You want to go to the park? " John questions, staring down at his child. It has been 5 years since your death. Everyday passes and even though the pain is still there, it gets easier with ( Y/C/N ).

" Yes. " the child stares up at him defiantly. John chuckled, picking her up. " Alright, fine. " He walks out of her bedroom, into the living room, where Alexander is watching TV. Eliza was out with Angelica.

" Hey, Al, I'm taking ( Y/C/N ) out. You wanna come with? " John asks, setting the toddler on the counter and applying sunscreen onto her.
" Yes please! " Alex jumped off the couch, yawning. " I'm beyond bored. "

John giggled, " Great. " Picking her up again and setting her down, he grabbed his keys and put them in his pocket.

(Y/C/N) was quickly clinging to Alex, hugging his legs. " Hey there kiddo, " he grinned, picking up her and walking out, John following close behind. Alex was listening intently as (Y/C/N) was babbling, leaving John lost in his thoughts.

Would he ever find someone else he'd like to spend his life with? Why did you have to leave him? He had some pent up anger that you would leave him with a baby.

" John? Hello? " Alexander's hand was waving in John's face. " Hm? " he quickly shakes his head, looking at his best friend. " We're here. "
( Y/C/N) quickly dashes to the sandbox, where other kids and some parents are, playing around. The two sat on a bench where they could watch her play.

" Hey, dude.. are you okay? " Alex asked. John sighed. " Yeah. Im just thinking, what if I never find someone like her again? " he fiddles with his fingers, glancing up for a second to make sure she was still there.

" John, there's so many people in this world. Yeah, none of them may be like her, you might not meet anyone like her maybe, but you'll find someone else that you'll love. "
John ran a hand through his hair. " Yeah, you're right. "

John had gone on many dates. Tried many websites. Speed dated. Trying to find someone who made him feel good, and happy. It never worked. Yeah, all those girls were nice, and unique and interesting. But none of them were what John wanted.

John was sitting on the couch with Eliza. Alex had gone out with (Y/C/N), expecting him to take a longer time.

" Eliza, I don't know what to do, I just.. I can't find someone. " John murmured, his face pressed into his hands. " That's fine! You don't have to date anyone or marry anyone. It's okay, John, " she rubbed his back.

" But Eliza, what if I'm just a lonely person for the rest of my life? " John gulped, tears starting to fall down his face. " John, calm down. Breathe. You don't need love. Alex and I will always be here for you, and we'll be our own family. "

" God, I love you Eliza, " he muttered, embracing her, " in a platonic way, of course. " Eliza let out a giggle, " I love you too John. " As John was about to say something, the door slammed open, and there stood Alex and (Y/C/N). " We're home! Look, daddy's here too! " Alex nudged her, and she dashed up to John and Eliza, snuggling her way between the two into their hug.

John giggled and Eliza grinned as the child hugged them. " Hey, what, you're having a family hug without me! Not cool! " Alex yelled as he ran up to them, jumping on the couch and hugging them.

At that moment, John realized something.

" Daddy, park, pwease? " the child looked up at him, smiling. He giggled, " Alright. We haven't been there for months, huh baby? You liked that sandbox. "

She eagerly nodded, as he walked her to the park. She made a bee-line to the sandbox, and he sat down on a bench, watching her. He enjoyed the sun, enjoyed the birds chirping.
He-
" Daddy, come here! "
He got up, walking to (Y/C/N). " This is my new friend, James. "

A boy around her age playing in the sandbox, sitting across from her, gave a shy smile. He grinned, and looked back down at her. " And this is his aunt, (Y/N). " John's breath caught in his throat when he heard your name.

He looked up to see a girl his age. His heart thudded. She had (Y/H/C) locks, and soul-striking (Y/E/C) eyes. " Hey, I'm (Y/N), " she held out her hand.
He shook it, grinning. " John. John Laurens. "

That day when Alex, (Y/C/N), Eliza and him shared that hug, he had come to a realization that made him stop dating. It was that love would find him, not the other way around.
That is exactly what happened.


update: here's what happened, reader faked their death and ran off to be in a relationship with chris evans and become an actor for marvel in LA. her character got killed off in her second movie and evans said she needs to go home bc her career was over. so she cried and stole a car and drove to wherever this is and found someone's kid at the park and told him his name was james and he's confused but goes with it so john has no idea it's the same person but he's falling into a trap
