Maria's POV

A couple of weeks passed since Nash and Cam came to the house. But to day is special, today Jeremy is two months old. We weren't planing on having a big party, just a small one with some ice cream. And my mom plans on FaceTiming us at some point today.

"Hey Jack you got the ice cream right?" I asked as we were eating the lunch Jack made. "Yeah I did." I turned my attention to the monitor sitting next to my plate. "Sweetheart can you get him?" Jack left then Matt and Carter came into the dining room.

The guys friends Matt and Carter came into town a couple of days ago. Too many people under one roof! But luckily they are stay at a near by hotel. "Hey guys, do you want me to make you a sandwich or something?" I said getting out of my chair. "No it's ok Maria. We ate before we came." God bless them. They sat down in the two extra chairs then Jack came back with a cooing Jeremy.

We watched a little bit of sports, by we I mean the guys. When it was quarter till two I pulled the ice cream out of the freezer. I put Jeremy on the counter in his bouncy seat for a minute until he started to cry. "Hey Jack, he needs a diaper change." Jack came in a got Jeremy.

"Hey Maria, do you need a hand?" Matt asked me as he came into the kitchen. "Um... Yeah. Can you get the bowls and spoons out." Once everything was out and ready I called the guys in. "Hey guys! Let's have some ice cream!" Matt, Carter, Jack J, Nash, Cam, and Jack with Jeremy came into the kitchen. I passed out the ice cream and everyone went out to the living room. I joined them with my bowl of ice cream.

Cameron was holding Jeremy in his lap giving him a little bit of his vanilla ice cream. I sat down next to Jack and he gave me a kiss. No one paid attention to us cause everyone was watching Jeremy reach for Cameron's ice cream. "Honey that's Uncle Cameron's ice cream." I sat my ice cream down on the side table and grabbed Jeremy from Cameron's lap. I laid him down on his stomach and sat back down next to Jack.

My phone started to vibrate. I pulled it out of my pocket and my mom's face appeared on the screen. "Hey mom." I turned up my volume on my phone. "Hey sweetie and of course Jack." Jack waved at my phone. "Hey Mrs. Emerson." I told my mom a few days ago about me and Jack, including the dream. "Where's Jeremy?" "He's on the floor for tummy time." "Well I want to see my grandson."

I gave my phone to Jack and I pick up Jeremy. I sat back down next to Jack, "say hi to grandma Jeremy." "Hey buddy. Grandma misses you. I'll be home soon." Jeremy started to fuss. "Hey mom I have to put him down. I'll be back in a few."

I walked back to Jeremy's room and I laid him down in his crib. I grabbed the monitor and went back out into the living room. "Alright I'm back." I sat back down next to Jack. "Oh sweetie I have some good news. The divorce has gone through, so I'm going to be coming home soon." "That's great mom! Where are you now is the question?"

"London, England. I'll be home in about a week. I should go because it's late here and I'm tired. I'll communicate with you before I leave London. Bye Maria, Jack, and everyone else that's there." She hung up. "Well your mother is nice Maria. Matt, I think we should head out." Carter said.

About a hour after Carter said he wanted to leave, him and Matt finally left. Jeremy woke up from his nap shortly after Matt and Carter left. I fed him some rice cereal and we were taking turns playing with him. "Hey Nash! How's dinner coming?" Johnson yelled into the kitchen when we started to smell something burning. "Um... Who wants Chinese take out?" "Bruh... It's the second time this week that you burnt dinner and suggested take out." Cameron said looking back at Nash who's head is sticking out the kitchen door.

"So... You don't want Chinese take out?" Cameron face palmed so hard, "take out is fine. Maria your going to have to teach him how to cook." I just rolled my eyes. "Now what do you all want?"

We ate our dinner while watching a movie in the living room. "Cameron its your day to cook lunch tomorrow and Johnson your on dinner duty." They both just nodded their heads. We've got a working system down as of last week. We make separate breakfasts, but we always share lunch and dinner together. And if we can't get together for lunch we must have dinner together, unless we have jammed schedules.

"I'm going to bed." Nash said getting up throwing away his trash. "So your going to call your mom?" He rolled his eyes at me. "Good night Nashy!" He hates it when I call him that. "I'm going to bed too." Johnson said.

Within the hour everyone was either asleep or in their rooms. "Finally Jeremy is in his own room." I said sitting down on the bed. "Yeah and now we can do whatever we want." He pulled me closer to his side of the bed. "Jack, we've talked about this. We've got to wait another month, that's what the doctor said."

"He said that was a recommendation. Not a requirement." He pulled me onto his lap. "I don't think I'm ready. Yeah I know it was eleven months ago but still." I got off of him. "Alright we won't until your ready."

We shut off the lights, "Jack are you still awake?" A light turned on, "what's wrong sweetheart?" He looked over at me. Man was I lucky to have Jack. "I love you." He looked at me in shock. "I love you too Maria." We kissed and turned off the light.
