Scars Left Untold

Date 2

*Bella's POV*

"Where do you want to go?" He asks me, I could tell a big weight had been lifted off his shoulders.

"Somewhere other than a mall, since that's where most of my students go after school." I laugh.

"Well, since you know I have a baby. Would you wanna go to my house?" He asks me with a nervous smile.

"Sure!" I grin back.

*they have just arrived to Jack's house*

We get out of the car and we head to the front door. He unlocks the door and we enter. It's a nice house, not too big but not to small. Just the right size for a small family. He leads me to the kitchen and living room area where I find Jonah with a baby.

"What a sight for sore eyes!" I say looking at Jonah. He sees me and stands up patting the baby's back.

"Hey Bella! What are you doing here?" He asks a bit panicked. "Oh, the baby? I'm baby sitting for a friend. Not Jack, not him. Jack is totally not a dad." He says scared and nervously.

"She knows." Jack says laughing at his attempt of keeping a secret.

"Oh." He says calming down, slightly embarrassed.

"Yeah," I laugh. "You might wanna work on your lying. It needs some work."

"Yeah." Jonah laughs as Jack walks to him.

"First a Stoner and now a dad?" I tease Jonah.

"Hey, well, at least this time I knew." Jonah says in defense. We both laugh and Jack looks between us very confused. But he shrugs his shoulder and goes for his child.

"How's my baby?" Jack says in a childish voice.

"I'm good." Jonah says jokingly as he hands off the baby to Jack. Holding the baby, Jack walks over to me.

"Bella, meet Lavender. My daughter."

"Hi Lavender." I whisper and wave at her. "How old is she?" I ask, turning my attention to Jack.

"8 months." He says looking at me and then back down to Lavender. I can tell he loves her more than anything, that nothing will top her.

"And that will be a picture for the books." Jonah says. We both look up to find Jonah holding his phone camera to us.

"Jonah, don't you dare post that." Jack says sternly.

"Too late." He says as Jack and I both get notifications for Instagram.

I open the notification to find Jonah had posted it on the Why Don't We shared Instagram account. With the caption saying "sweet moments like these make it worth it"

You can hardly see us, we are silhouettes and you can see Lavender a bit. Jonah also tagged us in the image.

"Well, this should be fun dealing with my students tomorrow." I say shoving my phone back into my pocket turning my attention back to Lavender. Jonah smiles and quickly takes his leave.

"Do you want to hold her?" He asks me.

"Sure." I say slightly unsure. He gently hands her to me and I smile down at Lavender.

"So, now that you know about Lavender. Are you sure you want to try and pursue a relationship?" He says standing in front of us.

"Absolutely." I say looking at him.
