Our life together

Chapter 4: Always Surrounded

*Noah's POV*

"She's beautiful." I said smiling. "What the hell happened!? Jess!? Did he hit you!?" Jason asked frantically. "Noo! Of course not! You know I'm not like that bro!" I said shaking my head. "Yeah, I know, but that doesn't explain what happened!" he said seeming a little tense. What do I say? Your daughter got drunk and got into a fight with my nephew? That wouldn't work out very well. I'd hear a whole lot of shit about that. Of course Evan walks in dripping wet. "Where are the towels!?" he said shaking his wet hair all over my floor. "Evan? What happened to your face!?" Jason asked. "Ohh! Hey Jason! What are you doing here!? My uncle didn't tell me you were coming by!" Evan said stomping around on the floor. "Somebody has some explaining to do! What is going on here!?" Jen screeched. "Mom! Calm down! Last night we went to the store to get some snacks and Noah went down to the magazine stand for me and me and Evan went to get ice cream and we ran into a girl I went to school with over here. Needless to say, she called me names, we got into a fight, Evan tried to break it up, and her boyfriend swung at him. And then Noah came and broke it up. We got kicked out before we could even buy our snacks though. That sucked." Jess said naturally. For a second I almost believed her myself. "Awe, sweetie! I'm sorry. Did you guys win though!?" Jason asked happily. "Yes! But if my uncle Noah didn't split it up, we would have been greatly hurt. They both had knives on them, Noah was just in time to push them off." Evan said winking at me. "Oh wow! Well, thank you Noah! Thanks for keeping our baby girl safe! I also have been meaning to tell you that I missed you, haven't seen you in a while." Jen said warmly. "No problem at all, and awe Jenners! You little sweetie you! I must let you know I still remember me being like 5 and you being like 13 or 14, and you always told me to get lost, and then remember how I skipped those grades and went to college with you, well a year behind and you thought I was a dork and you thought Jason was soo hot but so weird for hanging with me, well jokes on you know! I'm rich and beautiful and your child loves me!" I said laughing. "Ha ha ha! Very funny, you're still a dork though." I laughed a bit, and then finally had to say something about Evan soaking my floor. "EVAN! PLEASE GO TO THE BATHROOM AND DRY OFF. YOU'RE KILLING ME WITH THE DRIPPING AND YOU'RE RUINING MY FLOOR!" I shouted. "Dang okay! I'm going!" he said throwing his hands up. "Wow, I haven't seen him since he was a little boy... This is all so crazy." Jen said shaking her head. "Have you heard from Nina or Nick? I miss them." Jess said frowning. I wish I could have met these kids she always speaks about. "Nope, he won't even text me back. I just miss my babies. They are so important to me." Jen replied. "Well, let's go Jen. We have to meet Liz at the bar now." Jason said causing me and Jess to both scrunch our faces. "What? Why?" Jessica snapped. "Relax, I just want to discuss the divorce and the results come back about if he is really my son or not." Jason said grabbing Jens hand. "Best of luck. Have fun with that beast." I said. Jen smiled and led the way out to the car.

*Jessica's POV*

"Okay, they're gone, what now?" I asked. "The cleaners should be here any minute. I'm going to take Evan home as well, you can come if you'd like." Noah said. "Nah, I'm just gonna take a shower and all that good. stuff." I replied. "Good, you stink and that breath is wicked!" Noah said scrunching his nose up at me. "I hate you! Leave my house!" I said in a dramatic voice. "Hey, it's my house too!" he said smiling. "Yeah yeah yeah! EVAN! ITS TIME FOR YOU TO LEAVE, DON'T FORGET YOUR UNCLE!" I shouted. Noah shook his head at me and mumbled something, but I didn't catch it.

*Noah's POV*

I dropped Evan off and used the same lie Jess made up, on my sister. It worked. And I learned that my niece Taylor, would be coming back to visit soon and she's bringing her boyfriend. Tate. That could be interesting. I know my sister doesn't understand my relationship. But no one does. Jason and Jennifer don't either. I must admit sometimes I don't understand. I can't really go to parties or get drunk with her, or do other things I could do with someone my own age. Cassidy hates me. But I'm glad to be away from her. I'm glad to be enjoying myself and Jess makes me happy. She's perfect, to me. Jessica left a note on the fridge saying she went to dinner with her parents. Home alone, in a spotless home, thanks to the cleaners. I might as well just take a snooze.
