Jerika - Ever After [Sequel to Only]

chapter 15

Jake's POV:

Erika let's me in and takes me to the kitchen where Tessa and my son were. I look to Erika and she smiles at me. The little boy gets up from his seat and runs to Erika. Erika picks him up and carries him, bringing him closer to me.

Erika: Jake, meet Jax. (looks at Jax) Jax... this is...

I cut her off, kind of excitedly.

Jake: Your father. I'm your dad, buddy.

I look at him and smile and he smiles back at me, I then face Erika.

Jake: You have him the name I told you I wanted for my son.
Erika: Yeah, I know. I remembered when you told me and thought it'd be great to give him that name since he's your son and all.
Jake: (smiles at Erika) Yeah, that's great.

I stand there, looking at her and smiling at the thought of her remembering. She knows me so well, and I truly do love and appreciate that.

Erika: Here. (hands Jax to Jake)
Jake: (grabs Jax and carries him) Hey, Jax. My name is Jake Paul, and I'm your dad. (puts Jax down on the floor and has him stand up as he crouches down to reach his height) Do you know who I am?
Jax: You're on tv.
Jake: (smiles at Jax) Yes I am on tv, but I'm also your dad.
Jax: Daddy?
Jake: Yeah, that's me, Jax.
Jax: Oh.

Erika's POV:

I was looking down as Jake spoke to Jax.. It was honestly just the cutest thing ever. It warmed my heart. Tessa was next to me and we both smiled as we watched.

Tessa: (whispers to Erika) See I told you he'd come back.

I look at her and smile, she smiles back so I slightly give her a side hug then pay my attention back to my boys.

Jake: Jax, I just want to say that I'll be around a lot more. And I'm sorry I wasn't around before. It had nothing to do with you, but now that I know you're my son, you can count on me for anything. I'll be here til the end of my time for you. (smiles at Jax)

That is the cutest thing I have ever seen.

Jax: (hugs Jake without saying a word)

I look at the boys and Jake is picking up Jax, and hugging him as Jax wraps his small arms around Jake's neck. I smile at him and he looks back at me. He walks over to me.

Jake: Erika... Can we talk?

I nod and lead him into my room as he sets Jax down to be with Tessa for a quick moment. We both walk in and he closes the door behind us.

Jake: I want you to come live with me. You and Jax.
Erika: No, we're fine here. We're living with Tessa.
Jake: In this small place?
Erika: Yeah, its fine for us.
Jake: Erika, I live in a mansion, and we have so many rooms and so much space. Jax can get his own room and you can get your own room.. Or you can sleep with me.. Jax will have so much space to play, and we have a couple dogs and I'm sure Jax will love them. And Tessa can move in too, if she doesn't want to share a room with, Tony.. She can have her own room too. We have a lot of room. Sell this place and move in with me. All of you. And I will gladly make her a member of Team 10 since she's vlogging now.
Erika: I don't know, Jake...
Jake: Please, Erika. I want to be closer to Jax and you. I want to be a great father, I want to give him whatever he wants.
Erika: Well... Fine, but I'm gonna go talk to Tessa right now and if she stays, I stay. But if she agree's, we'll go.
Jake: (smiles widely at Erika) Yes, thanks! I'll be waiting in here.

I then make my way out of my room and go to the living room to find Tessa. I spot her sitting down on the couch as she watches Jax playing with his toys. I go over and sit beside her.

Erika: Hey, T?
Tessa: Yeah, what's up?
Erika: Jake just asked me something..
Tessa: Asked you what? Are you guys back together now?
Erika: No, we're not.. Our relationship is complicated at the moment. And he asked me if we could move in with him..
Tessa: Like as in you and Jax?
Erika: As in all of us. Me, Jax and you.
Tessa: Oh... Well...
Erika: Well what do you say? I also told him if you stay, I stay so it doesn't matter. And he also said that he'd make you a part of Team 10 if we go.
Tessa: Well how will the room situation be set up.
Erika: He said we all have our own rooms. Even you, in case you don't want to live with Tony yet. He said the house is big enough for us and has lots of room and space.
Tessa: Well, to be honest with you.. I'm down. And I also think I'm going to live with Anthony, cause he's been wanting to for awhile but I just wasn't ready.. And I feel like now is the perfect time. So if you want to, we can go move in the boys, cause I'd also love to join Team 10. I love everyone on there already.
Erika: Guess we're moving in with them then.

Tessa and I look at eachother and smile, we hug for a moment then I let go of her embrace and start to get up.

Erika: I'll go tell Jake right now.

I walk back to my room and enter, I look at Jake and see him pacing around the room. He looks up at me when I come into the room.

Jake: Soooo...
Erika: She said yes.
Jake: YES!! I'm so happy now!!!

Jake rushes over to me and kisses me.

Erika: So when do we start moving in?
Jake: We can start as soon as possible, babe.

"Babe"... Havent heard that in a long time, and let me just tell you. It feels great.
