The last thing I knew I was meeting my mom and Jenny for lunch in the airport. So, imagine my surprise when I finally came to on Jenny's couch. Then, I remembered....

Amelia.

She was there... with her son. The son that she made with someone else, the someone else she left me for. You have no idea how hard it was for me to look at that boy and know he could be mine, but he isn't. Suddenly, I felt a strong urge to throw something.

I was calmed by the sight of my beautiful sister's face. She sat beside me on the couch and slung her arm around my shoulder.

"Well, bro, this day has certainly been something." She was damn right about that. The girl who I made love with 5 minutes before she left town for someone else's dick is back, and I'm a mess.

It wasn't the most positive way to look at it. Yet, the only good thing about Amelia is that we have a chance to get back together, and LA is safer than New Orleans. Not that we're getting back together since it's been 8 years, but anything's possible.

Whatever. I guess it's never gonna happen so, it doesn't really matter anyway.

"Jenny, did I ever tell you that you're very pretty?"

She chuckled, and beamed at me with a mirror smile. "What do you want from me, Jake?" I laughed, but she seemed serious. "I wanted to thank you for everything." Planting a kiss on her cheek, I grabbed my car keys and headed for the parking lot.

There were some things I am just going to need to accept. Generally, the fact that Amelia is back. Also, she may go back and work for Todd, she has a son, and we will most likely be seeing a lot of each other.

Oh well, that's what I get for fucking a nutjob. But what I get for loving one is unknown.

Los Angles is really cool! It isn't anything like mommy and daddy's home in New Orleans, but it's warmer here. And the girls! Mommy always told me I'm my daddy's son because I love looking at girls. I really dig the pigtail look.

I think "dig" means something else.

Mommy's friends from the airport seemed nice, but when the guy walked up, mommy seemed to turn pale. He was Jake Miller, I knew that. I also knew that he's really cool.

Mommy doesn't know it, but I know she keeps a picture of her and Jake in a drawer that she looks at every day and cries. I have no idea what that's about, but I know seeing Jake made mommy sad. I wish I could've done something, but I don't think it's anything you could give someone a band aid for, or kiss to make it feel better.

Maybe that's just what she needs, a kiss to feel better.

So, I walked into the kitchen and put a smooch on her cheek. She turned a light shade of red and hugged me.

Every since daddy left for the "better place", Mommy and I've been really sad. Whenever she looks at me, she's reminded of him because I look like him. I miss him, and how we used to play "cowboy" together.

I wonder when he's coming home from that "better place". What could be better than home? When daddy does come back, are we going back to New Orleans? If so, I'd be really upset because Jenny's really pretty.

(*A/N-Daddy, Calvin, is dead, but Amelia told Peter he was in a "better place"*)

The next morning, mommy left early to go to work. Jenny came to babysit me, and I hugged her a few times. I didn't say much, but we watched Power Rangers:Dino Thunder. Connor is my favorite character because he's brave and smooth with the ladies.

I know, I'm 5, but I'm a man.
