It felt good to actually sleep in my own bed again and truthfully having Jack close again felt good. The weeks before the overdose I was pushing him away, isolating myself. Then I broke up with him and had to spend three months without him. But being back in his warm embrace felt so right.

At rehab we were on a strict rise schedule so I laid awake in bed at 8am on a Saturday morning. Jack had his arms wrapped around me protectively. I laid there watching him sleep. He looked so happy and peaceful. His eyes opened slowly, his brown eyes making eye contact with mine.

"Morning" he added in his husky morning voice "how long have you been awake?"

"Not long" I breathed before getting up and walking into the washroom

"So how are you feeling?" Jack asked as he followed me into the washroom. Picked up his toothbrush and handed me mine

"I'm feeling the same as I was the last time you asked. I'm good" I laughed lightly before becoming violently nauseous. I ran towards the toilet, I swear I felt like I had puked up my stomach. Jack rushed to my side and held my hair back

"Still feeling good?" Jack joked. There was a knock at the door

"Just go get the door Jack" I groaned. He rubbed my back lightly before walking out and down towards the foyer

I flushed the toilet and made my way to the sink where I rinsed my mouth out, washed my face and brushed my teeth. I quickly applied some mascara and made my way downstairs. I walked into the kitchen to see Jack and my mom talking.

"Oh hey mom" I smiled

"Hi baby" she cheered as she pulled me into a hug "ugh I'm so glad you two worked everything out"

"So am I" i looked to Jack and he gave me a cheeky smile

"I'm so glad you're back to normal. I should get going though I need to be home to find someone to watch True today. The nanny is sick. I just swung by to drop off the extra birthday cake from yesterday... you can't waste one of Jeffrey's cakes" she laughed

"Hey um about you just drop True off here? We can watch her" Jack suggested. She looked surprised at the suggestion. I was also pretty surprised at the suggestion too.

"Oh I don't know" she grabbed her purse

"It'll be True, Kenn and I and that way you won't have to go out of your way to find someone" Jack began and I nodded and my mom still looked unconvinced

"Come on mom" I looked to her and she furrowed her brows

"Why do you guys want to watch her so bad?" She questioned

"Cause" I stalled "I haven't seen her in awhile and I miss her" I added

"Are you two sure you want to spend your Saturday with a baby? Don't you guys have plans for your birthday?" She questioned

"Nah sounds like fun" Jack spoke up and walked towards us "I'm doing something special for her tomorrow" he added. I gave him a surprised look. I had no idea he had anything planned considering our anniversary was in a few days.

"Well okay. I'll drop her off in about an hour" she nodded and walked out the door

"What was that about?" I asked him and he shrugged

"Well I don't know about you but I haven't been around babies, most of my cousins are older and the ones that aren't I barely saw and I'm the baby of the family so I have no idea what I'm doing so having to babysit True would be good practice don't ya think?" He asked and I nodded. I loved how much he cared and was trying with this.
