I'm Carson James. I used to have a best friend whose name was Amber Smith but one day I fell in love with Blake Smith, her brother. Let's just say she didn't take it too well and our friendship ended that was 3 years ago and I've had no contact with...
I've been thinking about that kiss all week we were off work due to Earl being out of town and I didn't have his number. There was no way I was going to his house and he hadn't shown up at mine so I decided to call Maddie were meeting up for lunch.
"Have fun with Maddie!" Julia screamed we had gotten closer over this week I looked at her more like a sister which is a lot better.
"I will," I screamed back and got on my bike toward the diner I was a little early so I decided to call Jason.
"Sweet baby Jesus you're alive!" he exclaims and I laughed.
"I've been busy lately, How is she?" I asked in a whisper scared someone would here me.
"She's fine she misses her mama tho." He says back and I sigh.
"As soon as I hit 18 I'll be back for her thank you or keeping her for me," I said, I owed Jason my life for taking care of my daughter. Yeah, I have a daughter she's 3 years old real smart. Her name is Ava Olivia Smith. Yep, she's Blake's daughter a little fact that no one down here knows not even my dad. He just thinks I got knocked up by some random guy at a party Amber brought me to.
"No problem she knows you love her but Carson maybe I should bring her down there let her stay with you for the week. She could meet her dad give the guy a chance." He says and I sigh.
"Yeah, your right can you be here by Saturday?"
"Already booked the flight, be their tomorrow afternoon."
"Bye Jason tell my baby mommy loves her," I said hanging up when I spotted Maddie.
After lunch
"Lunch was great, thank you," I said with a smile walking to my bike.
"Your welcome I had fun." She said with a smile.
"You wouldn't happen to have Blake's number would you?" I asked her and she smiled.
"Yep go get em, tiger." She says grabbing my phone typing in his number and dialing it and walking off
"Hello?" his voice comes threw the phone sounding out of breath.
"Blake," I said.
"Carson how'd you get my number." He asked.
"We need to talk," I said in a serious tone, "Can we meet somewhere?"
"Um yeah, no one is home you can stop by." He says and I hang up and head towards his house as soon as I pulled up at his house he was already standing outside.
"What is it you seamed scared?" He asked and I shifted from foot to foot.
"There's something I need to tell you an I'm not quite sure how you're going to take it," I said slowly and he nodded his head in a go on motion. "I have a daughter her name is Ava and she's three," I ask and he looks at me in confusion.
"Okay?"
"Her name is Ava Oliva Smith... Blake, you have a daughter," I said and his eyes held so many emotions.
"How... how could you keep this from me? How could you keep her from me?" He asked he didn't sound mad just hurt and that was so much worse.
"I was younger I was stupid but most importantly I was scared but, My stepdads bringing her down tomorrow and I thought you might want to meet her,"
"I'd love to thank you for telling me and I'm so sorry I haven't been there for you." He apologizes and I put my hands on his shoulder.
"Blake there's no need to apologize you had no idea I left you, I was 14 I was scared I mean you were 17 I didn't want to ruin your life," I said and he grabs my face and kisses me. Once we pulled apart I let out a breath of content.
"Are you going to leave me out her standing like an idiot again?" I asked and he laughs.
"No, I'm never letting you leave again." I knew it was a lot to promise but I believed him. It had been too long without him and maybe uncle Earl was right a love like this didn't just go away.
"I'm not going anywhere," I said softly he lead me into the house and we laid in his bed watching a movie just enjoying the presence of each other.
Later
"Blake Michal Smith I of you to do the dish...." A loud moth boomed but paused once she opened the door to his bedroom. "Oh hey, Carson good to see you both are still in love with each other." Mrs. Smith said with a smirk. "Don't worry I've got the dishes." She said before walking out Blake covered his face in embarrassment and I laughed.
"We should have gone to my place." He groaned and I looked at him n shock.
"You have an Apartment?"
"No, I have a house and of course I do I'm 19 years old." He said in a duh tone and I laughed.
"What time is it?"
"Midnight." He said checking his phone and I groaned sitting up. he grabbed my hand and pulled me back down. "Stay that night I don't like the idea of you driving a motorcycle at midnight." He said and I smile.
"Another time but I need to go," I said and he huffed.
"What about we go to my house, stop by Walmart and get some stuff for Ava and while she's in town you stay with me? I have three guest rooms. She can have one and you can too." He says and I smile. "We'll put your bike in my truck it would make me feel better." He added and I kissed him.
"Okay.'
"Okay?" He asked with a smile and I nod he really does seem happy about meeting our daughter.
We got into his truck after saying goodbye to his parents and then put my bike into the trunk. Once we got to Walmart I picked up some of Ava's favorite snacks, some clothes, a and a bunch of toys. Blake decided he wanted her to have a room for when she visited so we also picked out some paint and wall stickers. After that, we headed to the house.
"Wow, your home is beautiful. " I said and he smiles.
"Heres the room we're going to turn into Avas room." He says and I smile kissing his cheek and that's what we did for 5 hours it was 7 am when we finally got to sleep.
