Kevin POV
It is now Wednesday and Joaquin is still here, sleeping with his arms wrapped around my bare stomach. He's so cute when he sleeps. I love him so much

I run my hand through his soft hair, causing him to smile. I never want this week to end

My phone starts buzzing. I reach over to my bedside table and look at the called ID. Veronica. I deny the call and go back to holding Joaquin

In the last 30 mins, Veronica had called me 5 times and texted me 8 times along with Betty who had called me 3 times and texted me 6 times

I ignored it all and got up, trying not to wake Joaquin

I walked downstairs and started to make pancakes and coffee, I heard a knock at the door and - forgetting I have no shirt on - opened it. Veronica and Betty pushed past me and looked at me, both gasping when the see the word carved onto my stomach

"K-kev" Betty said, tearing up with her hands over her mouth. The girls walk up to me and hug me

I see Joaquin stand at the top off the stairs, rubbing his eyes, not seeing the girls

The girls look up at him "what's he doing he...did he do that to you Kev?" Said Ronnie nervously, pointing at my stomach

Without having time to respond, Joaquin yelled

"I would never hurt him!" He walked to me, pushing past the girls and hugged me "this stupid, handsome little boy did it to himself"

He kissed my nose softly and put me on the counter

He finished the pancakes "do you want some girls?"

"Um, not thank you" they replied and turned to me. Ronnie whispered with concern "why did you do it Kev, we're worried?"

"Come over later and I'll explain, get back to school for now. I'll see you at 5" I hugged them goodbye

"See you at 5" they chimed in unison as they left

Veronica POV
It was 4:45 and got in my car and drove to Betty's

She answered the door it a plane white top which was tucked into a short pastel pink skirt

I kiss her at the door and lead her to the car. We start to drive to Kevin's house in worried silence

We knock the door at exactly 5 and Kevin - who was once again shirtless - opened the door with the sound of Joaquin singing flooded out of the door, filling my ears

"Um, come in" he moved out of the way for me and Betty to walk in. We looked around and saw Joaquin - in his boxers - dancing and singing around the kitchen, cooking

We walked into the living room "do you guys want to have some pasta once Joaquin's finished cooking?"

"Yes please" said Betty, smiling. Kevin walked to the kitchen telling Joaquin to make more for us and he came back

"So, about this" he looked at his stomach and breathed in heavily "when my dad took me from pop's, he said to me that he wishes he had had a better, straight son...he kept calling me useless. It kept getting to me and, and" he started to cry

Me and Betty ran to him and comforted him

Joaquin walked in, now dressed with 4 bowls of food he put them onnthe table and sat on the second sofa, holding his arms out signaling Kevin who went over to him almost instantly

Me and Betty got our pasta and started eating. We watched Joaquin feed Kevin, they are so cute together

"Remember to invite us to the wedding" said Betty, smiling

"Why would I forget?" Said Kevin, also smiling "you two can be the maids of honor" he smiled and blew a kiss at us

We smiled and talked through the night, god I love these people
