I didn't get any sleep last night due to Thea crying and when she stopped crying I was too nervous to go back to sleep because I was worried about her crying some more. She was now three days old and sweet as ever. I got up out of bed and Thea was still asleep so I grabbed the baby monitor and went to shower. I brushed my teeth and done a messy bun. I put on ripped jeans and a sweater with a cardigan. I threw on some mascara with chapstick. Today Peter and I were going to my family's house and he was gonna apologize to them. I honestly am really nervous but it's the right thing for him to do. 10 minutes later there's a knock on the door it's Peter. He brought mocha sugar donuts and iced coffee. He also brought some baby things and a lot of it. " You didn't have to bring anything Peter" I said because I didn't want him showering us with gifts. "Covey y'all are my family and I take care of my family." He said with a huge grin and I couldn't help but smile back. Soon Peter came in and we sat and ate doughnuts and drank ice coffee. Thea has gotten up so I brought her in the living room and put her in her rocking chair. Peter went over and made faces at her and even made her laugh. " she looks like me a lot like me" he said amused with Thea and her giggles. " She really does" I say back. Peter came over and sat by me on the couch. Thea was distracted in her rocker. "I'm still so sorry about everything and I promise too never leave you two again. I'm willing to wait like I said and whether you like it or not I'm going to take care of Thea and you. I know you can care for both of you but I still want to help out. I'm going to do my best to make it right with your family I promise. " Okay" is all I say I really don't know what else too say. He sees the sadness in my face and changes the subject and says what about the new plans and arrangements? " Well you have college an-" Peter interrupts " You also have college so who takes care of the baby?" He ask curiously. " I do Peter, I work online and take my courses on their it's easier and I can spend more time with Thea. I'm on maternity leave for the hospital right now so I don't have to work right now." and he looks surprised as to why I did not tell him this but I mean he wasn't here for a year so. " I can see if I can take my courses online too so I can spend more time with Thea as well" he says happily. " Peter no you need to go to school and play lacrosse and have you even told your mom about Thea." and as I finish my sentence his face drops and he looks upset. "I told her as soon as I left your house and she was happy very happy about it. She said we are both adults and she knows we can handle it but then I told her what I had done she was angry with me but told me I need to give you time and then go apologize." finally I said "Peter if you want to take school online fine but don't drop everything please. I can take care of her and you can still come and spend time with Thea at anytime." and then Peter has a questioning look on his face like he has an idea but I really don't know if it's going to be a good one. " What if I move in?" He ask excitingly. " What?" I ask shocked why would he move in? Why would he want too right now? " Covey think about it. It will be easier for me to spend time with Thea and be here just incase y'all need anything . I can still play lacrosse and do classes online. Covey before you say anything just please think about it please." I say " Okay I'll think about it but we have to go to my house everyone is there now." I had texted Daddy and everyone else saying Peter had comeback and they were not happy that I let him in and too see Thea. They wanted to come over and surprises him but I knew they meant to
Kick his ass so I just said I would bring him over and Thea so they can see her. They can kick his ass but not in front or near Thea. As we pull into the driveway I see all the cars are parked in the driveway so everyone is here. As we walk in Jame Fox Pickle try's to jump on me and Peter immediately goes to stop him worried he'll hurt Thea. When we walk in everyone is sitting in the living room and looks angry as ever. Then they see Thea and their faces soften at the look of her. I go and sit by Margot with Thea and Peter just stays standing. Then he starts to speak. "Let me just start of by saying I know how upset you all are with me and angry with me. I know I left Lara Jean and my daughter I know I messed up badly. I don't know what was wrong with me to make me walk away from her and our baby for a year. I was just scared to be a father and I know that's no excuse for what I did. There's wasn't a single second that I didn't think about Lara Jean or Thea and I am truly sorry for what happened and hope you all can forgive me but wether or not you all can I still am going to be in Theas life and hopefully Lara Jeans but I promise I will never leave them again." Peter look nervous and upset at the same time and I feel
bad for him for a moment. No one says a word they just stare at Peter until Daddy speaks. "Peter you're a good person and I am still upset that you left my daughter and your child without saying a word but if my daughter can forgive you I can too. I see how you look at Thea and Lara Jean and I truly believe you care and will keep your promise so don't make me doubt you don't" my dad says warning him. Peter looks relieved and says " Yes sir" I promise I won't. With that Kitty and Margot come up to Peter and Margot says she's still upset with him but forgives him but if she sees me crying ever again because of him she's going to knock him out. Peter look scared but happy she forgave him. Kitty just hugged him and Peter looked very relieved and Kitty says I already forgave you and they both laughed a little. Ashley came up and slapped him and Peter wasn't even shocked. " Kavinsky I told you don't mess with her or break her heart and you did so I'm mad at you but as long as you make your daughter happy and Lara Jean we won't have a problem got it?" Ashley says coolly. Peter just nods next Charles comes up and just hugs me bye and doesn't even look at Peter. I understand though he hurt me and Charles was worried about me. I don't think Peter wants to even speak to James,Charles, or Asher so Peter just says " are you ready to go?" and I wait for a minute to answer him back because Josh never came over to say hi to me but he's talking to Margot so I decide it's time for both of us to leave. I say my goodbyes and Peter got his warning that if he leaves or makes me cry again then he better be prepared because they're not waiting to beat him up next time and with that we leave back to my house. On the way there I think about Peter moving in. It will be easier and he can spend more time with Thea but I'm just scared I might want more with him when he does move in but I'm not doing this for me I'm doing this for Thea. I decide he can move in but I'm going to wait to tell him till we arrive at the house. He's going to be sleeping in the guest room though. We arrive at my house and go in and I lay Thea down for a nap and then I decide to tell Peter he can move in. I walk into the kitchen and Peters sitting there,he sees me and smiles. I guess now would be a good time to tell him. "Peter you can move in" he has the biggest smile ever right now. "but you have to sleep in the guest room and we're doing this for Thea nothing other than that." " Okay Covey I promise this is gonna be great. Thank you so much!" So yea that's that Peters moving in.
