Jerika - Ever After [Sequel to Only]

chapter 26

Erika's POV:

I was getting Jax dressed for the day then headed downstairs. I walk downstairs and see Jake on his phone. I then walk past him with Jax in my arms and he noticed and looks up at me.

Jake: Hey, good morning. (gets up and kisses Erika's cheek and Jax's forehead)
Erika: Morning. (smiles at Jake)
Jake: How's YouTube going?
Erika: Good, but you know you always have the haters..
Jake: Yeah just ignore them and show them you don't give a fuck.
Erika: Yeah I know.
Jake: Speaking of haters....
Erika: Yeah?...
Jake: Have you checked your twitter?

I look at him confusion. I didn't have any idea on what he was talking about. He unlocked his phone and went on twitter to find the tweet. He looks at it once then shows it to me. I look down on the phone.

@alissaviolet tweeted: "@erikacostell is using Jake. Jax isn't even his kid. She just wants fame."

I read the tweet and I immediately feel some type of way. I look up at Jake.

Erika: What the fuck? Why is she saying that? That's not even true at all.
Jake: I know. Just ignore it though. If you ignore her enough, maybe she'll stop.
Erika: Yeah.. I guess..

I then look at him one last time and pick up my phone. As soon as I unlock it, I see that I ave hso many notifications from social media. I open them up and look through them... Realizing that most of it is hate, I look up at Jake and show him. He puts an arm around me and kisses my forehead.

Jake: Dont worry about it, babe.

I slightly smile at him but just can't help but to continue thinking of what's going on in my feed.

Jake: Hey... How about we go get some of your favorite froyo to get your mind off it?
Erika: (looks up at him and then locks her phone) I'd like that.

He quickly got up and picked up Jax and grabbed his car keys. He headed towards the door and I followed behind. He put Jax safely in his car seat as I got in. He then got in the car drove off and shortly after we were at my favorite froyo place which I was kind of excited about. I could never get enough of this froyo man! We walked into the store and paparazzi was all over us.

Interviewer: Hey, Erika.. How do you feel about what Alissa said? Jake, is what Alissa said true?

Jake looks over at me and holds Jax as he pulls me in closer and looks at the interviewer. I slightly hide my face as I'm closer into his arms. He then opens the door for me letting me go in first. I turn back and see Jake talking to the guy.

Jake: No comment.

The interviewer nods and lets Jake walk in. He walks over to me and hands me Jax.

Jake: Hey.. Don't worry about all the paparazzi, it's okay. It's not a big deal.

He kisses me quickly and heads in line to get all of us our froyo's. As he purchases our froyo, I find us a table. I sit Jax down and then sit down in a chair beside him. He looks up at me and smiles.

Erika: You're so cute. (smiles at Jax)
Jax: Thanks mommy.
Erika: (kisses his forehead)
Jax: Mommy..
Erika: Yes, Jax?
Jax: I have to use the bathroom.
Erika: Okay, just wait til daddy gets back so he can go with you.
Jax: Okay.
