"Mom, Dad I'm going out to see Matt! I'll be back soon," Emma yelled from the bottom of the stairwell with her keys and purse in hand.

"Okay! Call us if you need us," Justin yelled back to his oldest daughter.

Emma made her way over to the garage and carefully got into her car before reversing out and driving down to the hotel.

"I'm here," she said into the phone before Jake got into the car. "Are you ready to get this over with?" she sighed driving away from the hotel and to the hospital.

"Hi, I'm Emmaleigh Bieber," she said in a soft voice trying to keep a lo profile.

"Take a seat. The doctor will see you in a moment," the receptionist said with a smile.

"Are you nervous?" Jake asked her as she looked up from her phone.

"No, what is there to be nervous about ? If your the father than okay, if not then that's okay too," she replied honestly sliding her phone into her bag as the nurse called her name.

After few minutes of waiting, the doctor came in and took a blood sample before coming back with the results as she flashed back to that night

[ flashback ]

The music blared loud in Emma's ears as she and her friends danced along to the music in the newest club in town.

"Emma calm down, you've already had a lot to drink," Haley said trying to place the 5th drink Emma had down on the bar.

"Hay, I'm fine," she slurred with a smile.

"Aren't you a little young to be in here?" A male voice aid causing her to turn around in shock.

"Aren't you a little old?" she asked raising an eyebrow at him.

"You're feisty; I like that. What's your name?"

"Ashley," Emma lied using the name on her fake I.D.

"I'm Jake, wanna dance?" he asked holding his hand out and she gladly took it.

"The blood type of the baby is A+," the doctor told the couple as he slid the paper out of the manila folder.

"Well i guess that settles that then," Emma said looking over a Jake. "Now we can go back to the way things were. No harm, no foul," she said getting off the doctor bed.

*Justin's POV*

"DADDY!" Bailey yelled throughout the whole house.

"Yes princess?" I yelled popping my head out of the studio door.

"Uncle Scooter is on the phone!"

I cussed under my breath knowing that when Scooter calls and i don't pick up he's usually upset.

I hurried and picked up my phone from Bailey and placed it on my ear, "hey Scoot, what's up?"

"Justin, you will never believe the call i just got," Scooter said happily through the phone.

"What?" I asked going into my office.

"Let me rephrase, guess who just got a Grammy nomination," he said as i inhaled a deep breath.

No way!" I yelled excitedly.

"Can you believe it Ariana got a Grammy nom!" he said.

"Oh Ariana," I said, suddenly not feeling all that happy anymore.

"Jay," he laughed. "I'm kidding! You got nominated kid! Good job!" he yelled.

"Thank you Scooter! I have to go tell the kids. I'll call you later," I said with smile the size of Texas on my face.

"Selena!" I yelled running to the kitchen to find her there looking slightly frightened.

"What' wrong?" she asked in a panic.

"Kids!" I yelled as Bentley, Jachito and Bailey piled into the kitchen.

"So I just got off the phone with Scooter and guess what?" I asked looking around that the faces of my lovely family. "I got nominated for a grammy!"

Everyone smiled and Bailey yelled happily as Selena took my in her arms kissing me.

"I'm so proud of you Jay. i know you would do it," she said looking at like i was her pride and joy.

"It's funny because I was beginning to believe the Academy would never see me as a real artist," I said shaking my head in disbelief.

"Well, you proved them wrong didn't you?" she said kissing me again as I got a text from Scooter about the details of the nomination.

"Oh my gosh," i said looking at my phone.

"What?" Jachito asked.

"This is the song all the kids helped produce. Do you know what the means? All the Bieber's are up for a Grammy!" I yelled as Bailey began jumping around and Bentley's jaw dropped in awe.

"I so proud of all of you," Selena said holding her hand up to her heart as she fought to hold back the tears that were getting ready to spill at any moment.
