👣REUNITED👣

~4~

I was still in my store when I saw Rachel walking to the entrance...I got up and met her by the door and gave her a hug and thanked her for coming...then I sat down across from her and told her everything...and asked her if she knew how serious Kc was with Klayton...or if they just started seeing each other...Rachel looked right at me and said Kc and Stoney have been seeing each other for about 3 weeks now...and added that she was very happy with him...and that he was very good to her and her nephew. I looked away and asked her if she thought Kc loved him more than she loved me...when she was in love with me.

Rachel grabbed my hand and told me straight out...that Kc could never love anyone like the way she loved me...and every now and then she would come to her, and she'd cry over the fact, that she missed me so badly even after the fact that I cheated on her...I told Rachel that I wanted her help...to get her back and my son in my life...that I needed them both...I could never be whole without them...she stood up and told me that she knew I was being sincere about it...but she didn't think even with her help...could I get her sister to forgive me...for I hurt her that bad...that Kc told her that she would never be able to run right anymore...and that no mechanic alive was good enough to fix her to where she would be the same.

I stood up and walked with her toward the door, and told her I had to try...and that every moment without her and Johnny in my life...it was tearing a bigger hole in my heart...and only with them would it mend...then I hugged her again and cried on her shoulder a little bit...and asked her if I fucked up so bad...that I could never be redeemed...and given a second chance...she hugged me back and said she would try to help...then added that she always thought I was the best thing that ever happened to her sister...but I was human...and a dumb male human at that...and I was bound to make a mistake at one time or another...but beens I only fucked up once...that I should be able to get forgiven...maybe...then before she left, she told me that I needed to take it slow though...and not to rush anything...or I'd never get the chance.

So I took her words into consideration and decided to play it very slowly...and about an hour after Rachel left...Kc and Johnny were walking thru the lobby...I stood up and raced out the door...and put all my attention on my son...and was so happy to see him...I scooped him in my arms and asked him how he was doing today...he was giggling as I was giving him airplane rides...and blowing a few raspberries on his tummy...then I looked at Kc and asked her how she was doing...she said she was fine...then asked me if I would like to spend some father and son time with Johnny...while she was on a business trip...for a few days...I looked at her and said I would love to have my son...she said she thought I would...then she handed me Johnny's bag with all his necessities in it...then she handed me a piece of paper...with her cell number and Klay's new cell number...and said if anything went wrong to call her...and if there were any emergencies to call Rachel.

I told her there wouldn't be any emergencies...that I was fully capable of taking care of my son...then I looked at him and told him how much fun we were going to have...and he just grinned at me and gave me a high five...Kc kissed Johnny and told him to be a good boy while she was gone...then she thanked me for taking him...that she usually hired a sitter...but this was very short notice...and it was Klayton's idea to let me take care of him...so I could get to know him...and he would get to know me...I thanked her...then asked her if I could have a serious conversation with her when she got back...about Johnny and visitation rights...she looked at me and shook her head yes...then rushed off...because she was late for her flight... and she didn't want to miss it.

I grabbed Johnny's bag and kissed him on his forehead...and took him up to my suite and introduced him to Hammie...which he fell in love with instantly...Johnny was such a good baby...he treated Hammie gently with nothing but love and kindness...after I got his things situated I asked him what he would like to do first...but he kept petting Hammie until he fell asleep on the couch...I smiled to myself and said that his ride over must have made him very sleepy...or I was a very dull and boring daddy...one or the other...then I went to the bedroom and brought out a pillow and a blanket and snuggled up behind him on the couch and took a nap with him.

It wasn't until after 5:00 when Johnny woke up and tickled my nose with Hammie's tail until I woke up...to let me know that he was hungry and had to go potty...but couldn't get his buckles unfastened...so I hopped up and took him to the bathroom and unbuckled him...then after he was done I fixed him back up again...and asked him what he would like for supper...he thought about it for about three seconds before he hollered out pizza...I laughed with him and said that was my favorite food too...so I knelt down and told him to hop aboard the pizza express...he climbed on my back and I piggy-backed him to the elevators and then down to bonanno's New York style Pizza place...where I sat him in a booster seat so he could reach the table...and ordered a large meatlover's pizza...and a couple of juice boxes.

After our very pleasant supper...with a lot of my fans passing by and telling me what an adorable boy I had...then asked me if he was mine...and of course Johnny and I both would tell them he was my son...after supper...I carried him back up to my suite and into my bedroom where he, Hammie and I all snuggled together in the bed and went to sleep...
