Everything Happens for a Reason- A Jemi Love Story

Episode 19

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Soon enough they find themselves making their way to the house Joe grew up in Joe knowing his mom is ready to see him and his daughter again. He sometimes wishes he was closer to his family but with work it's practically impossible. They reach the house hearing noise coming from the backyard Joe deciding they would make their way around there. It's a nice day so Joe figured that his dad would be doing a barbeque for everyone.

"Joe watch out!" Nick shouts as a football sores across the air landing straight into his arms.

"Nicholas I told you to put that away!" Denise shouts, Joe doesn't mind though. It just makes him feel more at home, his younger brother being lectured all th time. Denise makes her way over to them taking the football from Joe's arms giving him a hug and a kiss on the cheek before doing the same with Scarlett looking down into the stroller. "She's grown loads!" She exclaims.

"Yeah too much, mom this is Demi and Wilmer," Joe introduces and they all greet each other Joe taking the football throwing it so it lands straight into Kevin's arms. "You don't have to stop playing cause I'm here."

"You sure?" Frankie questions and Joe nods.

"I cleared the pool like you asked." Denise states and Joe nods thanking her.

Less than an hour later Joe, Scarlett, Demi, Wilmer and Sadie are in the pool being careful knowing that Sadie is only nearly three months old kicking her legs in the water as a float is keeping her up Joe and Scarlett staying close by so she doesn't drift away. Demi is the one who is playing with her arms acting as if she is swimming smiling wider when she smiles.

"Awe she has your smile Joe." Demi teases and he laughs, it's the first time she had smiled so Joe and Scarlett are feeling proud that she finally has. Joe sits up on the side of the pool pushing his sunglasses further up in his face noticing Nick and Kevin sitting either side of him. They begin having a brotherly conversation Demi and Wilmer at the other side having their own conversation surprised that reporters haven't found them yet.

"This is nice." Demi states.

"Yeah I guess it is," Wilmer restates. "Seems like a nice family home." Demi nods in agreement looking out at the house just imagining a couple madly in love with plenty of kids running around, she wants that one day in a house like this one.

Joe sighs as he gets lead through the house by Scarlett and Demi, Scarlett doing the leading since Demi doesn't know her way through the house. They soon find themselves in Joe's old room most of the stuff gone besides a couple of items he didn't want to take with him when he moved to New York. Joe takes a seat on the bed wondering why there are up here. Scarlett makes her way over to the wardrobe opening it and bringing out a guitar case. Joe groans laying down on the bed knowing exactly where this is going.

"Play again Joe, you clearly miss it." Scarlett lectures laying it next to him.

"You're a good singer and music writing." Demi states flicking through the notebook he had when he was still at school where he would write all his songs down. The ones people loved so much that they would push him into doing something as a career that he didn't want to do.

"Was." He mumbles.

"You still will be Joe, give it a go." Scarlett begs and he sighs.

"For us." Demi answers and Joe sits up.

"When did you hear me sing?" Joe questions raising his eyebrow, he never sings anymore, not knowing he is anyway.

"You sing in the shower all the time Joe." Scarlett argued and he sighs looking down at the guitar case debating whether he should or not. He wants to but at the same time doesn't.
