There's always that one person who you get swept up with and you think that you two will be together forever, well, that's not the guy that I fell for, at least, not in the beginning...
Once I had woken up, we spent the rest of the night talking about the weekend, eating a ton, and watching a ton of different movies. Ethan had spent a large amount of the night popping in and out which was a nice change.
The next day I had spent it going shopping with Jess while Adelaide went on a date. Well, she said that it wasn't a date but I know her better than that. Around four, I dropped Jess off and went back home. That's about where you join me again.
I walk into my room and go to change into one of the outfits I bought today. Jackson is used to seeing me wearing sweatpants and a t-shirt, I thought that it would be nice to dress up a bit for my little man.

I knew that I wouldn't get a reaction out of Jackson but it felt good for me to dress up for once and feel actually quite good about myself.
I walk towards the front door and see Ethan laying on the couch.
"Hey, I'm going to pick up Jackson now," I said as I opened the front door.
"What are you all dressed up for?" He asked as he turned around on the couch to face me.
"Because I wanted to," I said and grabbed my keys from a shelf.
"Fair enough," Ethan said and turned back around and resumed to watch his movie.
I closed the door behind me and walked towards my car, opening the door and getting in. I drove over to Adam's apartment in about ten minutes and parked the car. As I walked towards the lobby, I saw Jasmine storming out.
"Jasmine, are you-" I was going to ask her if she was alright but before I could finish, the door to the lobby slammed and I was left staring awkwardly at a doorman. "Hi," I laughed and he smiled back at me politely.
I walk up to the elevator, press the button to go up and see that someone is getting out of the elevator so I go to grab theirs. I walk in and press the buttons to go to Adam's floor.
As I arrive I walk out and see a flustered Adam standing right in his doorframe.
"Hey, what happened between you and Jasmine? I saw her walking out of the lobby; she looked pretty upset," I say as I walk up to him and hug him.
"We just got into a little argument, that's all," Adam says as he leads me into his apartment.
"Right," I say and close the door behind me. "So, where's my little man?"
"Taking a nap," Adam says as he walks into his kitchen and takes out two wine glasses.
"Oh, I thought that I would just grab him and go," I say as I sit down at the island.
"It's fine, stay for a bit," Adam says as he pours some wine into the two glasses and slides one over to me.
"I wasn't planning on drinking," I say as I gently pick up the glass.
"You only have one year till you're legal, you'll survive," Adam laughed and leaned against the counter.
"So, how was he?" I ask as I take a small sip from the sweet wine.
"To be honest, like his mother," Adam laughed.
"What's that supposed to mean?" I ask in a defensive tone.
"He just did little things that reminded me of you," Adam said with a smile playing at his lips.
"Well, I should hope so, he is my son after all," I say with a smile. "So, how's life?"
"Good, how about for you?"
"Well, only year and a half till I'm out of that hell hole."
"Come on, it can't be that bad."
"It's really not except for the fact that my teachers give no fucks about the fact that I'm raising a kid and don't have time to do their hundreds of pages of homework," I say as I set the glass down and run my hands through my hair.
"Awww, I'm sorry, do you want to talk about it? Here, come sit down on the couch," Adam says as he picks up his glass and mine.
He leads me over to the living room and sets down the glasses on the table. I walk to the couch and sink into the soft material of it.
I watch Adam as he walks over a closet and pulls out a blanket.
I smile as he walks over and sits down on the couch next to me. I grab the blanket and spread it over our two bodies.
Somehow in the next few seconds, I lay down next to Adam with my back facing him.
"I miss our cuddles," Adam laughs as he runs his hand through my hair.
"Me too," I smile as Adam wraps his hand around my waist and pulls me closer to him.
"Athena, I'm sorry that I've been such an awful father to Jackson. He's my own son and I haven't been there for you guys the way I should have. You and him mean the world to me and I don't know what I would do if you guys weren't in my life," Adam says as he take in a deep breath.
"Adam," I say as I turn around and lay with our bodies pressing against each other, our faces inches apart. "You're trying now, and that's all that matters. Do not think that for even a second that me and Jackson are going anywhere, because we're not. I love you and I know that even though Jackson can't convey his feelings yet, he loves you too."
"Athena," Adam says softly as he looks me in my eyes and tries to pull me closer to him than I already am.
"Yes?" I ask with my voice so soft that it even shock me a little bit.
I watch as the world suddenly goes in slow motion as Adam softly presses his lips against mine as if asking permission to go on.
This movement shocks me because the Adam that I knew was very passionate and rough with his kissing.
I kiss Adam back as I run my hands through his hair. I feel Adam's mouth open as his tongue plays with my lips, asking to enter my mouth.
I open my mouth and moan as I feel his tongue enter my mouth and explore every inch. I twist our bodies so that I am straddling Adam and he sits up against the couch.
I slowly brake the kiss and we are both left panting from the heat of the moment.
"I've wanted to do this for so long," Adam sighs as he wrap his arms around my body and presses me to him.
In a seconds time, our lips are back on each other's and we begin again.

Hey guys,
I know that all of you are going to skip this part of the chapter where I talk to you but let me know what you guys think!
I know that there are barely any chapters and they are so poorly edited but I know where I'm going with this so bare with me.
