Chapter 19// It's Lauren and Steve time

Lauren's POV

We reached the hotel and we all got off of the bus and into the hotel for the night. I say good night to Kim and James as the room me and Steve are in is on the 7th floor not the 5th floor. Once in the room me and Steve just sit on the bed together.

"So how did the internship with the Blue Jays?" He asks/

"I left the internship early," I say.

"Why? When I seen you last you were having a fun time,"

"Something happened,"

"What? tell me,"

"The owner of the Blue Jays raped me with three days left in the internship, I left Toronto that day to go back home,"

"I'm sorry that happened. I would ask why but I don't want too,"

"I'll tell you, I was in the box seat with only him and he said if you want this internship your gona have to work for it. He pointed to his dick and he forced me to suck it then he bent me over and raped me. Tears were falling like they are now,"
I put my face down as I feel him lift it back up.

"I'm gonna tell the MLB that and they will have to do something about it,"
I smile as I move closer to him as he wraps his arms around my shoulder.

"Thank you, so how have you been?"

"I've been pretty good, just surpirsed to see you here. So you got a place to stay in Columbus?"

"I'm with Kim's parents right now until her and James move together. I'm moving with them,"

"Don't you feel like the third wheel?"

"Nah, Kim and James treat me as family and I get to babysit my god-son,"

"I remember you telling me she had a child, whats his name again?"

"Edward James as of right now, they are changing it soon to Edward James Neal,"

"Is he actually James son?"

"By what they tell me yes he is, i thought he looked more like Sid but I see James in him now,"

"Aww,"

"Yeah I love him, how has your season gone?"

"Been going ok but not been in net as much as I would like. I understand that Sergei needs to improve but I do too,"

"Yes you do,"
He smile as he hugs me while I sit in front of him.

We talk alot more about what our likes and dislikes were. We had alot in common then I remember before, like we love hockey but we dont like the city we are in.

"Shall I order dinner?" Steve asks.

"Sure," I say as he gets up and walks over to the phone as my phone begins to go off.
I pull it out of my pocket and read it.

"How's it going? James is on the phone with Eddie,"
It's Kim

"It's going good, we seem to be connecting like we did back in the summer,"
I hit send to her.

"Aww thats good, well Eddie is going to the hosptial with my dad, Tanner injuried himself playing football,"

"Dumbass,"

"Yeah, he has to go cause mom is in bed and he's awake. We are an 2 hours behind Columbus so its 12:45 there,"
How did he

"I know, I'll text ya tomorrow,"
I close it just as Steve covers my eyes.

"Steve," I say.
He removed his hand as he leans over and kisses me.

"I ordered a cheese pizza with some champagne," he says.

"Trying to get my tipsy?"

"Nah, we aren't going to drink much and I wouldnt try to get in your pants,"
That made me smile for some reason.

"Your not like all the other guys,"

"I was raised with respected, unlike my new teammate James Neal. He was a playboy,"

"Hey, don't talk about him, he is a good guy now. He has his life right where he wants it,"

"True, he seems happy on the ice,"

"He's happy in gerneral,"

We just talk some more about Dustin which is hard and a few of my past relationships.

A knock comes at the door.

"I got it," he says as I watch him hurry off of the bed and to the door.

"Hungry?" I ask as I watch him wheel in the tray as he stops it by the bed.

"Ready to eat?"

"Oh yea, I haven't ate at all today,"
Steve hands me a plate as I help myself to the pizza.

Then as I start eating, he opens the bottle and pours us a drink.

"Here,"
He hands me the glass as he sits back on the bed beside me with his plate and the bottle.

"Pick something to watch,"
He hands me the remote as I place my piece of pizza down as I order the movie 27 Dresses.

I finished eating my pizza as I poured myself another glass of champagne.

"Thirsty are we?" Steve asks.

"Hey I haven't had this in awhile, taking advantage of it," I say as I drank the a whole second glass.
Steve takes my glass out of my hand as he walks over to the tray.

He comes back over and wraps his arms around me.
Leaning forward he begins to kiss me as I kiss him right back.

I feel him move his hands behind me so he lifted  off my shirt as I use my hands to take his shirt off while still kissing him.

He then breaks the kiss as he pushes me on the bed and gets on top of me. Reaches for my bra as he just pulls it off of me.

I grab his arms as I pull him back down onto my lips as I wrap my legs around him.

He begins to place his hand on my pants as I feel him lift up as he uses both hands to undo them.

Breaks off as he grabs my pants and underwear both, taking them off.

"Your a little dressed," I say as I sit up as I undo his suit pants.
He thens pulls down his boxers as I see his dick rock hard.

"This for me?"

"Yep,"
I then grab it and begin to suck on it.

After a few minutes, I feel him push me back down onto the bed as he kisses me.
I then felt his dick go inside of me.

He then does fast right away

"Oh god Steve!!!"
It felt so good to have him inside of me.

He contuines to go fast as I scream out in pleasure.

Then he stops and flips me over to be on top.

"Your turn," he says as I got my balance as I move my body up and down as he grabs my boobs.

"Oh yea!!!"
I then came as I lay down on Steve.

I open my eyes to see him staring at me as he kisses my nose.

"Ready for round two?" he asks.

"Oh yeah,"

We then have rounds after rounds as I lay down on the bed.

"I'm tired," I say as an knock comes at the door.

"I'll get it," Steve says as I watch him get a sheet on as he tired to walk over to the door.

"Hey colton, hey man I can't control what goes on in my room, sorry we will keep it down. Neal? He is on the 5th floor with his girlfriend. Shut up Colton go to bed,"
He shuts the door as I'm laughing.

"My teammate thought it was me and James in here making that noise. We have to keep it down,"
He gets back into bed as I lay my head on his chest.

"We will, we need some sleep and its like 6, oh boy," I say as my phone rings.

I lean over and get it out of my pocket.

Opening it, it is from Kim.

"Good morning, time to get up,"

"I'll meet you later,"
I throw the phone as I close my eyes laying on Steve's chest.

Note from the author

This next chapter coming up will be in Lauren's point of view and won't have anything to do with James. It will invovled Lauren and Steve Mason. Just wanted to give yinzs  a heads up :-D

Chapter 18// Neal debuts at practice

We woke up the next morning and got everything ready to had for the airport. Lauren is coming along so I have a roommate for the trip. Once we got to the airport, Eddie says good-bye to all three of us as we board the plane. Lauren sits on the other side of the plane from me and James. The airplane takes off for Edmonton.

I look out the window as we pass all the clouds.

"Anything interesting out there?" James asks.

"Not really, so do you know who is suppose to greet us?" I ask as I turn to face James.

"I have no idea but they know what flight I'm coming in on,"

"Do they know I'm with you?"

"No they don't, I should have asked to see if it is ok,"

"Well I'm sure it is. You know whoever your stuck with, you have to stay with them,"

"I know, Lauren you ok over there?"

"Yeah I'm fine," Lauren says

"You know I won't be going on all your road trips?" I say

"I know, I looked at Columbus schedule and I'll be home on the 30th for the game on the 31st against the Ducks," James says

"Well thats not too bad, I'll go home after the game tomorrow or the morning on Friday,"

"I have to fly out on thursday after the game to Calgary to play the flames Friday,"

"Guess me and Lauren will get a plane ride out for tomorrow night then. I got to enroll Eddie in the school up the street on Friday. Don't want him out of school too much. And Lauren is going to look for places, if I'm correct?"

"Well I'm just gonna stay at your house, if thats ok?" Lauren asks.

"That's ok by me, when me and James move out you can move into the guest house. I know they will be ok with that," I say

"I don't want him missing much school either, think Eddie will turn into a blue jackets fan?"
I laugh as me and Lauren had started a conversation

"He will always love the Penguins no matter what but he was always be a fan of his daddy,"
I watch James smile.

"We got to change his name before next school year,"

"Yes we do,"
I'm glad that James wants to change the name like I do. Eddie needs the Neal added to the end of his name but, he might forget to add it in class.

"Are you going to go back to teaching?"

"Well it's pointless too right now since it's near the end of the year. I can apply for next year's school year. What are our plans for the summer?"

"What do you two normally do?"

"Come to Columbus or go on some type of car ride and stay in a hotel. Or just hang out with Lauren and go to Canada,"

"Canada, whats part?"

"Toronto, we went there last year and the year before. It's like our summer spot,"

"Well How about you come with me home for the summer? Let my parents and family meet Eddie,"

"You sure you want me and Eddie there?"
I asked trying to be stupid.

"Yes I'm sure, so stop playing stupid,"
I just laugh ask he known

"Alright we will go home with you in the summer,"
James just grabs my hand tighter as he leans over to kiss me again

We just talk more about us, Eddie and us going house shopping before we go to Canada for the summer. The plane has landed safely in Canada as me, James and Lauren walk off of the plane.

"We are in Canada," James says as I lay my foot on Canadian soil.

"I know that silly," I say as I watch James grab my hand as we make our way into the airport.

"You must be James Neal?" A man asks.

"Yes sir," James says as we stop by the man inside the door.

"I'm Jarmo Kekalainen, general manger for the Blue Jackets. Glad to meet you James,"

"Glad to meet you too Mr. Kekalainen,"

"Who are theses ladies?"

"This is my girlfriend, Kimberly and her good friend, Lauren. They wanted to come with my first game as a jacket, our son couldn't make the trip," James says.

"Are you going to come to the Flames game on Friday as well?" he asks.

"No we will be going back to Columbus," I say.

"Alright, well I will have to get you two a room and James I have you bunking with Steve Mason for the remained of the trip," Jarmo says.

"Ok," I say

"Let's get out of here and to the arena for practice,"
We walk out of the arena and into a SUV as Jarmo is driving.

"Kim or Kimberly?" he asks.

"Doesn't matter," I say.

"Do you want to go to practice or to the hotel?"
I look at Lauren who is sitting beside me.

"practice is thats not a problem,"

"Alright, I'm going to have you two sit in the stands,"

"Not a problem. We  are fans and used to it,"

"Ok, I'll have to get you two extra tickets for the game unless you want to be in the suite with a few for our players,"

"We rather be in the stands,"

"Alright, what is your last name?"

"James is my last name and Lauren is Cayne "

"ok, so when we get to the arena, James I'll take you to the locker room then take you two to our side of the stands at Rexall Place. After practice I'll have someone come get you,"

"Can I just go get them?" James asks.

"Sure,"
He doesn't seem too nice. Wish James never got traded to this sucky team from Pittsburgh.

Once we get to the stadium like building, I walk with the GM and James to the locker room.

"I will get you once practice is over," James says as his arms his arms around me and hugs me.

"Ok, good luck," I say.

"Good luck James," Lauren says.

"Thanks, see you girls later," James says.

"What the?" Lauren says as I turn and see his man that had bumped into Lauren.

"Lauren is that you?" he asks.

"Steve, how are you?" Lauren asks.

"I'm pretty good and you? How did the internship go?"

"I'm doing well, just moved to Columbus with my friend Kim and James here. I didn't get the job for the position but it's alright. Still go to Toronto in the summers,"

"Good, so where you at in Columbus?"

"Northeast I think,"

"I live outside of Gahanna, we need to catch up

"Yes we do,"

"We will make plans later, got to go get ready, come on roomie,"
Steve walks away with James as they head into the room


"Let's head for the stands," Jarmo says as we walk down the hall to the home locker rooms.
I forgot that my cousin plays for this team just as we walk passed it.

"You never told me you knew Steve Mason?" I ask.

"We are just friends, I hooked him up with tickets last season to the Blue Jays games," Lauren says
I can't believe she never told me this

"Hey Kim Lauren?, is that you?"
Right in front of me is my cousin from my mom's side.

"Ryan? It's been awhile," I say as I run over to him as he gets me into a hug.

"Whitney!!," Lauren says as I let go of Ryan so she can hug him.

"Yes it has has been awhile for both of you, what you doing here anyways? Thought you two were in Pittsburgh,"

"Nope, I moved home yesterday with my boyfriend, Eddie and this little one here"
I knew mom had told Ryan who my son is.

"Who's your boyfriend?"

"James Neal," Lauren says
I look at her, like I was mad but I wasn't

"How did this happen?"

"Well, we had a one night stand back in 2006 and when he kissed me at Eddie's first game, brought thoses memories back to both of us. He is Eddie's daddy too," I say

"Wow Aunt Molly skipped alot,"

"She didn't know about everything until yesterday. I forgot that you played here until we headed for the home locker room. How is it here?"

"Good, I love this team but I do miss all the guys I played with in Pittsburgh,"

"Do you stay in contact with Sid?" Lauren asks.

"Yeah I do but not recently but I did hear from TK that Dustin Jeffrey whoever that is cheated on you Lauren?"

"Yeah he did, he has been calling saying this and that. The funny thing is that he cheated on me with Neal's ex,"
I laugh, Dustin picked the whore over the good girl

"Give me his number and I'll go off on him,"

"Hey Ryan, let's go,"
I look over to see this young hockey player.

"In a minute Hallsy, I'm talking to my cousin and my friend here. Go away,"
Ryan is such a kidder

"Go, we have to get to the stands before the jackets practice. It was great to see you,"
I wrap my arms around him as I kiss his cheek.

"Tell Eddie cousin Ryan will see him," he says.

"Ok, bye Ryan,"
 I watch as Lauren hugs him as well

We  begin to walk again with the GM.

"Sorry for stopping, we just haven't seen him in a long time," I say.

"It's ok, I understand being aways from family," he says.
We then head down the stairs to the glass seats.

"I'm pretty sure James will see where you are, he will actually be another number," he says.

"What number is he?" I ask.

"number 8,"

"Ok, thank you,"
He nods his head as he heads back up the stairs.

I look out onto the ice as I see the Blue Jacket players hit the ice.

I don't regonize a since player as I see James getting onto the ice. He still has the penguin decal on his helmet but they removed the 1 from it.
He also just has his bottoms on that he wore from home games with the Penguins. The only think Blue Jackets on him is his jersey.

He looks so lost out there as I watch him talking to the other guys from the team.

Just as I seen James coming by making a kissy face at me.
I laugh

"You are lucky to have James in your and Eddie's life. So when are you planning to change his name?" Lauren asks.

"Before next school year, thats the plan so far," I say.

"I wonder if James will change me spots in the hotel, so I can spend some time with Steve,"

"You like him don't you?"

"to tell you the truth, I've been in love with him since last summer but I don't know if he feels the samething back to me,"

"I know he has feelings for you Lauren, I could just tell in his eyes that he did. He was excited to see you,"

"Well i know I was excited to see him,"

I think my friend is in love with a guy I know nothing about.
I see James stopping on the other side of the rink.

"Neal stop staring!" I scream as he laughs.
I just watch the rest of practice by myself.

As the guys get off the ice, the Oilers took to the ice.

I just sit there until  felt a tap and turn around.

"Hey you enjoy practice?" James asks as I get up.

"Yeah, how are your new team mates?" I ask as we head up the stairs.
Lauren is walking behind us

"Good, they have me right now on third line for the game, they didn't want to scratch me,"

"Well thats good, oh we bumped into my cousin,"

"Your cousin?"

"Yea, he plays for the oilers and I forgot he did until I passed the home teams locker rooms,"

"Who is he?"

"Ryan Whitney is my cousin from my mom's side,"

"Ohh ok, I know which one he is,"

"Yeah haven't seen him since before I was pregnant,"

"Well glad you got to see him,"
He wraps his arms around me as we stop and he kisses me.

"Hey Lauren, wait up"
We stop as we turn around to see Steve there.

"What Steve?" Laur asks.

"I want to let you know that I like you, and I mean like you,"
Steve pulls her close to him as he kisses her.

"Hey James switch me rooms? You take our room with your girl and I'll take their room," Steve asks.

"Sure, can't argue with that but are we suppose to do that?" James asks.

"I don't care, I need to know Lauren all over again,"
They then walked out ahead of us as I look at james in disbelief.

I can't believe he did that
James grabs my hand as we follow them out to the team bus as we got on and headed to the hotel.

Chapter 17// Unpacking our life

After General Hosptial is over, Lauren throws the remote over to me.

"I don't want it," I say as I turn the TV off.

"So James, where are you from?" Mom asks.

"Whitby, Ontario its about 44 to 45 minutes away from Toronto," James says.

"I think I know where that is at. I'm from the Toronto area until I met Kim's father," Mom says.

"It's a beauiful place, my parents still live up there,"

"Wish we still did but we would live in Nova Scotia if we still lived up there but we moved when Kim was young. My husband works for a law firm company but they expended down here. Wanted Steven to head it,"

"Ahh,"

James and mom contuine to talk about anything from me to Eddie. From dating me to being a dad to Eddie.

"So how did you two met?" Mom asks.
I look at James.

"We met at a bar," I say.

"No I didnt mean the first time. I kinda figured you two met in a bar, I mean recently?" Mom asked.

"At a hockey game, Eddie ran away from me and James picked him up. We went to the back in the locker room that night. James gives me his number and as I drive off I remember kissing him.  We both remembered everything from our one night stand," I say as I see Lauren getting up.

"I'm going to go take a nap, not feeling good," Laur says.

"Ok, feel better Laur," I say as the back door opens.

"Hunny who is blocking the, Kimberly,"
I see my dad as I get off the couch and go hug him.

"How long you been here?" he asks.

"Since about 3," James says.

"Who is this?" Dad asks as James gets up.

"I'm James," James says as he extends his hand to dad.

"Nice to meet you James, where is Eddie at?" dad asks as he shakes James hand.

"He is down for a nap like Lauren is," Mom says.

"Ahh ok so James you been good with the Penguins," dad says.

"Thank you sir,"

"It will do the Jackets good that you are here,"

"I hope so," James says as his phone begins to ring.

"Excuse I will be back.
He kisses my hand before heading into the kicthen.

"How did he become your boyfriend?" Dad asks as he walks over and takes a seat beside me.

"We just clicked dad," I say.

"Steven, James is Eddie's daddy," mom says.
He looks at me.

"What? I thought Crosby was his dad,"
I told my mom about everything fron Pittsburgh when I moved home while pregnant.

"It's James, I slept with him around the sametime when I got pregnant. He was a one night stand and after that night I didn't do anything with Sid at all. We even took a DNA a few days ago. James is Eddie's father,"

"Wow, do you love each other?"

"Yes sir we do," James says as he walks over to me and sits on the arm of the couch.

"Alright, well let's go get that U-Haul unloaded so we can take it back. Where are your cars at?" dad asks.

"Back in Pittsburgh, got someone delivering them tomorrow or Wednesday,"

"Alright, hun where is Tanner at?" dad asks.

"At James's house," Mom says.

"Well James we are on our own, let's go move that stuff out into the guest house,"
James nods his head as I get up.

"I'm helping too," I say as I follow them outside through the front door.

All three of us unloaded the content into the guest house. After everything was in, me and James unloaded everything and put mine and Eddie's bed's together and placed them in the proper rooms.
The guest house is starting to feel like home.

"So when do you have to report to Nationwide arena?" I ask.

"How did you know where I had to go?" James asks.

"I've lived in Columbus for awhile,"

He wraps his arms around me as he kisses my neck.

"No dirty play Mr. Neal,"

"Aww your no fun,"
I just laugh at him as his phone rings again.

I see him answer it

"Hello,Hey Geno. I know it sucks but I'm getting settled in. Thank goodness we don't face each other until next season. It will be hard to go there as well as you coming here,"

I couldn't imagne James going back to Consol Energy Center as a visitor, not a player of the Penguins.

"Alright bye,"
I watch a he closes his phone.

"Well I knew Geno would be sad to see me leave, it wasn't my decision,"

"I know it wasn't, they are stupid to trade you for a defense man,"

"I know, so tomorrow I believe is when I got to be there. Not too sure until..."
His phone rings again as he answers it.

"Hello, this is James Neal. I am good and you? Thank you sir and I will try my best. I can fly out on game day if that ok? Tomorrow morning? alright I can do that. I will"
James hangs up his phone

"Well I have to fly out in the morning to Edmonton," James says.

"Well I'm going with you then, I'll ask mom to watch Eddie. He shouldn't go all the way out there," I say.

"I agree with you, where is my hockey bag and stick at?"

"In the cloest in the front room," I say as James gets off the bed as I follow him up front.
I watch him grab his hockey bag out of the cloest as he grabs his sticks as well. He puts them by the front door as he looks up at me with a plan in his head.

I knew, so I turn around and ran for the bedroom until he tackled me on the bed.

"Your in for it," James says as he begins to tickle me.

"James stop," I say, laughing really loud.

"Say please,"

"No,"
He begins to tickle me in my really bad tickle spot.

"Ok please," I say as he stops.
I sit up to see him smiling at me as I use my hand and push him back on the bed.

"Hey what was that for?"

"For tickling me in that spot,"

"I'm sorry babe if I hurt you,"

"You didn't hurt me, I just did that cause you tickled me there,"

"Mommy, daddy Eddie is up,"
I knew it was mom.

"Thanks mom, looks like parenting calls," I say as I get up and wait for James.

"Go ahead first," James says as I walk out of the room and head up front to the door.

Opening the door, I walk out then wait on James.

I then see him closing the door and grabbing my hand as we walk up to the main house.

Once reaching the main house, James opens the door for me.

"Thank you,"
I walk passed him into the house as I hear mommy.

"Have a good nap?" I ask as he runs over to me.

"Yes, daddy," Eddie says as he runs passed me to James.
Turning around I see James picking up Eddie.

We then head into the living room as I seen Lauren up too.

"Feel better?" I ask as I take a seat beside her.

"Yes, I needed that nap, Dustin called me," Lauren says.

"Did you answer?"

"Yea, told him to fuck off,"

"Good, he doesn't need to ruin your good mood,"
She then smiles.

James then takes a seat besides me with Eddie in his lap.

For the entire night, we just chat and watch TV together. After dinner, James went to play with Eddie until 8:30 when we placed him in his bed to go to sleep. After I head back over to the house to ask my mom to watch Eddie while I go with James and she has no problem. I smile as I head back to the house then to the bedroom. Me and James just cuddle until I go to bed.

Chapter 16// Moving to Columbus

Me and James went do to the CEC and picked up all of his things, then we headed to both houses to pack up a little. James was the easiest house to pack up then mine. After we head to Lauren tell her whats going on. She is moving with us. While me and her pack her place, James plays with Eddie. After everything is packed, we place it all in her car besides the furinture. Lauren is leaving ahead of us as I need to finishing packing and rent a U-Haul for my house. I also called and quit from my job and unenrolling Eddie from school. James already half packed a U-Haul for his things. After I did all of that, Eddie lays down in bed with me and James. We slept as a family this night.

"Mommy, daddy get up," Eddie says as he shakes me.

"Ok Eddie, I'm up," I say as I open my eyes.

Then I feel James moving.

"I'm up too," James says.

I feel Eddie jump outta bed.

"Eddie don't make breakfest," I say.

James turns over and faces me.

"I'll make breakfest," James says as he kisses me and get out of bed.

I lay there for a second until I get up.

I being to pick up the matteress off the floor

"Babe I'll help you after we eat,"

I smile as i place it down and go up front.

Eddie is at the table with a bowl of cereal infront of him.

"Here you go babe, its all you have left,"

He hands me a bowl of special K cereal.

I head to the table and being to eat.

James then joins in sitting at the table with us.

After breakfest, James begins takes apart the table as I smile as Eddie is holding the legs of the table.

I smile as I open the door.

"Be careful with thoses," James says as he takes the table out as Eddie follows slower.

I walk behind him as we walk over to the Uhaul as James puts the table in.

"Hand daddy the legs," I say as Eddie begins to hand James the legs of the table.

"thank you," James says as he smiles as he packs the legs into the U-Haul.

"Only the matteress is left," I say.

James comes jumping down of the U-Haul.

 

"Can I help?" Eddie asks.

"Sure," James says as Eddie goes running into the house.

"how is he going to help?" I ask as we walk back into the house.

"He can hold the bottom while we got most of the weight on us,"

"Good idea, your mind already turning into parent mode?"

We walk down the hallway.

"It's been in this mode for awhile now,"

We walk into my room as I get on the back of the mattress knowing I was walking forward.

I lift my end up as James does his.

"Now Eddie to get the middle between mommy and daddy," James says.

We then walk very slowly out of the house and to the U-Haul

"alright set it down,"

I set my end down as I see Eddie doing the same.

James gets up into the truck.

"Eddie stand back, mommy is going to help me on this one," James says as I watch Eddie move a little back as I grab onto the bottom.

"Push,"

I push the mattress as hard as I could until I seen it hop on top of my other things.

"There we go," James says as he hops from the U-Haul once again but this time he brings along the door, locking it

"Ready to say bye bye to our house?" I ask Eddie.

He goes running into the house as I follow him in and to his room.

"Mommy I want to take theses," Eddie says.

"We are going to have to get new ones sweetie. Theses can't come off the wall and come with us,"

"Mommy why we moving?"

I kneel in front of him as i hear James walking in.

"Because we are going with daddy. He isn't on the Penguins anymore. He has a new team and we have to travel there so he can be with the new team,"

"Can't we stay here?"

Eddie isn't into moving and i knew he wouldn't be.

"No, don't you want to come with me? We are going to get a new house and everything," James says.

"I do but I want to stay here,"

"Well you can't do that," I say as James picks up Eddie as he begins to cry.

"I want to stay home!!" Eddie crys as i walk behind him out of our house.

Memories will stay here but our future is with James and that means moving then we will.

I walk behind them as I see James putting Eddie in the truck and shut the door.

"Sure you wanting to move with me?" James asks as he walks over to me.

"Yes I'm sure James,"

He kisses me as I then walk pass him into the passinger seat as Eddie is on the blanket and pillow between the seats. I already had everything I needed for him packed in here.

James begins the truck and heads down the street.

"Mommy can I have a juice?" Eddie asks as I grab one out of the cooler for him.

"Thank you,"

I smile as he settled down.

Then a phone goes off as I reach into my pocket and pull mine out.

Lauren: Hope you know I made it last night to your parents. Sorry was tired when I arrived.

Me: It's alright, we are on our way so just let my parents know that and tell them to get the guest house ready.

Lauren: I will, they put me in the guest room.

Me: Ok good, do they know we are coming?

Lauren? I told them when I got in last night what happened.

Me: Alright I'll let you go.

I close my phone.

"Lauren is in columbus with my parents," I say.

"Is that where we are going?" James asks.

"Until we get a house together yea. We will be in the guest house until then. It has 2 rooms and a bathroom,"

"Nice, do they know we are coming?"

"Yep they do,"

"So i see Grandma and PaPaw again?" Eddie asks.

"Yep we will be staying with them," I say.

The biggest smile got on Eddie's face.

Then a phone rang.

"Dang," James says as he stops at a red light and gets his phone.

He places it on the dash and opens it.

"Hello," James says as he begins to drive again.

"Heard the bad news," a female voice says.

"Yeah, it sucks,"

"You driving now?" she asks.

"It's on hands free mom, hey is dad around? i need to tell you something,"

"Sure Peter come here,"

"Hey James, sorry about the trade," Peter says.

"Yeah, it sucks but I got something to tell you both, sit down,"

"James your making me nervous," she says.

"Please mom,"

"We are sitting down, whats up?" Peter asks.

"I am a dad," 

"Your a dad? James," she says.

"Mom he is a 5 year old turning 6 this year,"

"James why did you do that son?" Peter asks.

"Mom, it was from a one night stand. I'm actually with him and his mother right now. We are moving to Columbus together.

"Whats your name little guy?"

I look at Eddie.

"Tell him your name," I say.

"I'm Eddie," Eddie says.

"Hi Eddie, how are you?"

"Good and you?"

"I'm well thank you. How old are you?"

"5,"

"Wow a big boy, well I know you can't see me but I'm your grandpa,"

"Peter don't say that,"

"Mom we got a DNA test done and he is mine," James says.

"You sure?" she asks.

"Mrs. Neal James is telling you the truth cause I had to read the results," I say.

"Who are you?" she asks.

"I'm Kimberly, your sons girlfriend,"

His mom thinks he is lying but his dad doesn't.

"James are you sure you want this?" his mom asks.

"Yes mom, Eddie is your grandson I swear to you," james says.

"Hi Eddie, it's Grandma Neal," she says.

I smile, I knew she would come around.

We talk to his parents more as I exlain who I am and what I do. I wanted his parents to open up and let me and Eddie in their lifes cause we will be for awhile.

James hangs up the phone just as she pass in Ohio.

"About 1 and a half hours left by my phone," James says.

"Ugh too long," I say as they both start laughing.

to pass the time we just sing to the radio or look out the window.

Once we reach the Columbus area, I tell James the directions to my parents house which is on the north side of Columbus.

"It's the Green house," I say as James parks in the long driveway behind Lauren's car.

"Thank god that was long," James says as he turns it off.

"Yeah wait are we going to get our cars delieved here?" I ask as I hop out of the U-Haul as I help Eddie out as well.

"Yeah, probably tomorrow or Wednesday," 

I pick up Eddie as I head up to the front door as my mother met me at that door.

"where is my little boy at?" mom asks as Eddie looks at her and smiles.

"Grandma," Eddie says as I hand him to her.

James then walks up on the porch.

"Mom this is James, James my mother Molly," I say.

"Nice to meet you James, come on in,"

We both walk into the door as Lauren is sitting on the couch.

"Move General hosptial is on,"

I laugh as I sit on the loveseat as James sits besides me.

"I'm going to put him down in his room," Mom says.

"alright," I say.

I just sit on the couch as I turn to the TV, not so big into Soap Operas but I'll watch it. I know James doesn't like it.

Chapter 15// He got what??

The four days went by pretty fast for both me and Eddie. We stayed at Lauren's until Saturday night until she basically kicked us out. We went and got James as we took him to the CEC on Sunday. He asked if we could stay but it was on a school night for Eddie. I wasn't going to pull that since what happened last time. I ended up driving to Lauren's as Eddie stayed there so I could get James. After the game, I got James and headed home, we ended up having sex until early in the morning.


Moving my head around, I look up at the clock that reads 9:30

"Crap," I say as I hurry out of bed as I head up front as I seen my phone blinking.
I open it.

"Kim I have your class today so he won't see. You owe me. Shirley,"
I breathe as I slowly put the phone down.

"Whats wrong?" James asks.

"Overslept," I say.

"I'm sorry babe,"
He walks over to me as he wraps his arms around me.

"Not your fault,"
I smile as he reached for something.

"James we went 5 rounds last night, I'm tired,"
He kisses me on the neck.

"I hate when your right,"
I chuckle as he walks off into the kicthen.

"Got any orange juice?" James asks.

"Only Sunny D, its what Eddie drinks. Oh I need to call Lauren"

I hit 1 on my phone as I place it to my ear.

"Hey, Eddie is at school if your wondering," Lauren says.

"Thanks Laur, I overslept this morning," I say.

"I can't believe you did, so want me to get him at noon?"

"Me and James can go get him,"

"Alright, well it gives me something to do since I lost my job,"

"When did you do that?"

"About 3 weeks ago. he was helping me,"

"Geez, have you been looking?"

"Yeah, but nothing,"

"You re more then welcomed to stay here,"

"You sure?"

"your family and if you want to go get Eddie you can,"

"Thanks, he's the only reason I keep going,"

"Eddie loves you Laur and so do I,"

"I'm going to take a walk, talk to you when I get Eddie here,"
I hang up as I walk into the kicthen to see James standing there eating a sandwich looking at the TV.

"Trading is already happening," James says as I look on the screen at who has been traded.

"Who has all been traded?" I ask.

"Tyler Bozak from Toronto, Jeff Skinner from Carolina, and Marc Staal from New York. Marc and Jeff got traded for each other,"

"Guess Carolina has all the Staal brothers now,"

"That they do, I still miss Staalsy,"

"I miss  him as a player,"

"Had a crush on old Jordan?"

"No, he reminds me of a brother,"
James turns to face me as he begins to tickle me.

"James stop," I say as I begin to yell and scream as he finds my tickle spot.

"Tell me you had a crush on him,"
I moved as he has a good grip on me.

"Never,"
I laughed so hard that I tried to wiggle my way out.

"Your not going to escape,"
I knew he was right.

"Ok i had a crush on Jordan,"
He lets me go.

"Was it that bad?"
I make a smirk at him.

"No it wasn't,"
I started to laughing

"So what are we doing today?" I ask.

"Not sure, we have a day off today so I can do anything besides tonight I can't,"

"Why not?"

"the Bachelor comes on,"

"You watch that?"
I start laughing.

"I watch it so what? My sister does too,"
I laugh still as I never have seen that show.

James picks up his phone and begins to do something on it.
He then shows me it.

james neal
@jneal_18

Me and my girl

And it has a picture of me and James from the Skate and Plates.

"James,"
I then hug and kiss him.

"I want everyone to know your mine,"
That makes me smile.

"I always will be yours,"

"I'll post Eddie later,"

"don't post him for me,"

"Alright,"

"What you told your fans you have a child?"

"Not yet,"

"Ok,"

"So whats does my girl want to do?"

"I dont know, you pick,"

"I have a perfect spot to go that Paulie showed me,"

"Alright, let me go get changed and I'll be back down for you,"

"Ok baby,"
I head to the back to my room as I open the closet and pulled out my outfit that I haven't wore in awhile. Its a purple top with blue jeans that look like purple then my purple flats.

I change out of my little of clothes I have on into this outfit as I put my hair up half and half.

I walk out of the room back up front as James is still watching the TV.

"Anymore trades?" I ask.

"Nah, they say that the Jack Johnson trade is happening today between them and the Penguins,"

"That sucks, does anyone know they are getting traded?"

"Wont know until it happens. When I got traded here I just found out from Matt and he found out from the TV,"

"That sucks,"

"It does, I dont think it will be me since I just signed a deal last season,"

"I hope it isn't you,"
James turns off the TV.

"We are switching cars," James says, which that caused me to laugh.

"I can just follow you in mine," I say.

"We are not going to do that,"
I smile as James is already back in his dress attire.

"Alright,"

"You ready to leave?"

"Yep, so we are making a stop?"

"Yes, gonna ride there in style,"
I laugh as me and him walk over to the door and walk out of the house.

"So I'm driving," I say as I run over to my car as I open the door and get in.

"you know I'm driving when we get my car?" James asks as he gets in.

"I know cause I dont know what spot your talking about,"
I begin the car up and head down the road.

"You relize we don't live that far from each other?"

"We don't do we?"

"Nope, instead of going to the Brugh you'll turn to go to Cannonsburg,"

"Yep I know. I have a good memory,"

I drive into the Fort Pitt tunnel and head out on the other side to see the city.
I get in the farthest left lane as I need to head for the Heniz Field area.

I turn into the parking lot as I park besides James's car.

I grab my keys as I get out of the car.

"Your car goes faster then mine," I say as i close the door to mine.

"Oh yeah, I have a sports car," James says as I stand there patiently.

I watch as he using his key to unlock it.
After hearing the clicking sound, I open the door and get into the car.

James begins it up and heads out of the parking lot down the road.

I watch all the sights go by as James crosses a bridge then up an incline.

"Where are we going?" I ask as James stops.
I look to his side to the the greatest view of Pittsburgh I ever saw.

"James its the best view,"
I hurry and get out of the car as I run over to the railing to look out onto the city.

"I'm going to ask you the question here someday," James says as I feel him wrap his arms around me.

"I hope so," I say as I couldn't stop looking at the city.

Me and James just stand there and talk for what it seems like hours until I hear his phone ring.
He moves back as I hear him open it.

"Hello, hey whats up? I've been what? Are you kidding me? I thought I wasn't going to be since I. Alright i will be in shortly. Thank you bye,"

I turn around to see him looking so sad.

"Whats wrong?" I ask.

"I got traded to Columbus for Jack Johnson and a draft pick," James says.

"Guess we get to pick a new house to live in,"
I'm trying to be supportive..

"Your damn right,"
He hugs me.

I'm glad he got what I was saying.

"So when do you get to walk into the CEC for the final time?"

"Sometime today, I have to pack everything of mine up before tomorrow's game,"

"Well let's go now since that call ruined out moods,"
James smiles from his sad face.

"Good idea and yea it did,"

We walk back over to the car and headed for downtown Pittsburgh.

chapter 14// Feel Good

I just sit here thinking how heart broken she is, I know I never reacted this bad to a break up but I'm not Lauren. My worst broke up happened when I was in high school.

After she calms down and stops crying, she sits up.

"Your a great friend to me," Lauren says.

"We are sisters and always have been, we are sistas from another mothea,"
That caused her to laugh as I cracked a smile too.

"I always thought as you as my sister,"
I smile.

"Do you want some ice cream? I know you have some in the frezzer,"

"Sure why not?

"that'a girl,"
I get up from off the couch and walk to the back where eddie is playing his video games.

"You want a treat?" I ask.
He drops his remote.

"Yes mommy," Eddie says.

"Follow me,"
I watch as Eddie comes out of the room as  follow him.

"Come give Aunt Lauren a hug,"
I walk in the kicthen as I see Eddie giving Lauren the biggest hug.

I smile as I turn around.

I get out the ice cream and make a bowl for each of us, with Eddie getting the smallest amount.

"Eddie come get your bowl," I say as I pick up his bowl.

"Thank you mommy," he says as he gets the bowl out of my hands as I pick mine and Laurens back up.

Walking back into the living room, I hand her bowl to her and sit down.
Eddie is eating on the other couch.

"Want to watch a movie? Maybe A Walk to Remember?"
I grab the remote and go through everything until I see it and order it.

We just sit there watching the movie as Eddie goes between rooms.
After that movie is over, I order The Notebook.

I always wished I could be Allie and live a life like she did.
This is a movie I need to watch with James one night.

In the middle of the movie, Eddie walks over to me.

"Tired?" I ask.

"Yes," Eddie says.
I hit the pause button.

"I'll be back, he needs to go to bed,"
just as I say that, my cell phone rings.

"Bet it's daddy, go get into bed," I say as I walk to the table and pick up to answer my phone.

"Hello," I say as I go walking into his room.

"Hey, I promised I'll call Eddie. Is he asleep yet?" James asks.

"Nope, here Eddie it's daddy,"
I hand the phone to him as he grabs it from me.

"Hey daddy, I miss you. I play video games and cheer aunt lauren. Yes ok bye daddy,"
He hands the phone back to me.

"Sleep tight," I say as I kiss his forehead and walk out of the room.

"Still there?" I ask.

"Yep, how is she doing?"

"Better, much better,"

"Good, I so want you to be here,"

"James we talked about it,"

"I know and I'm in a room with Sid since Dan wanted us to make up,"

"Ahh, is he being nice to you?"

"Oh yeah like nothing happened,"

"Hmm strange, glad he isnt fighting with you,"

"I know, I'll let you go so you can be with Lauren. I love you,"

"I love you too James. night,"
I hang up the phone as I walk back into the living room and hit play.

"You found a lucky guy," Lauren says.

"What do you mean? James?" I ask.

"Yeah, he doesn't seem like the type of guy to cheat,"

"I don't think he ever would. He is happy that he has a family that he never knew he had,"

"I'm happy for you all, is Eddie's last name going to change?"

"We are planning on it, Edward James Neal will be his name,"

"Taking out the Michael?"

"Yeah, I want James name in his name and my last name,"

"Thats smart, does James like it?"

"Yeah he does, I thought about it a couple nights ago when we remembered what happened between us,"

"Aww, I'm so happy Eddie has a daddy,"

"Me too, he would have probably had a step-daddy if I didnt know if James as his dad,"

"Probably, i just want a life like yours,"

"You will, give it time,"
We finish watching the movie as I begin to yawn.

"I think it's time for bed,"Lauren says.

"Agree," I say as I take the blanket off the couch.

"Thanks for staying here with me,"

"Your welcome, we are sisters,"
She smiles.

"See you in the morning,"
She walks to the back as I hear my phone go off, like a text message.

so I get up and grab it off and table then walk back over the couch.

I get comfy again as I open it up.

James: Hey you up?
I go ahead and text him

Me:Yes I am, Lauren went to bed and I'm on the couch.
James: Aww I'm sorry, is it a comfy couch atleast?

I laugh

Me: Oh yeah it is, would be better with you.
James: I know, so you going to bed?
Me: Nah, i'm awake now
James: I'm sorry, I'm up too. Crosby is snoring loud.

I laugh and think that sounds like Sid that I remember.

James: So Eddie is good?
Me: Yep, he is sleeping soundly. He love you James.
James: I love him too, I still got to talk to my parents.
Me: I hope they are happy and come visit.
James: Me too, I'm pretty sure they wont like it at first then they will come around once they know your in my life and Eddie is too.

I smiled at that fact.

Me and James just text long into the evening to early early in the morning.

James: We better get to bed, I love you Kimberly.
Me: I love you too James

I close my phone as I shut my eyes to go to sleep

Chapter 13// I can't believe this!!

"Eww, gross," Eddie says as he trys to break us up.

"Eddie stop that," I say as he breaks us up.

"Hey do you want to go to the park Eddie?" James asks.

"Yes I do," Eddie says as he runs out of the room.

"Never thought he would leave," james says as he leans over and kisses me.

"James we have to get up and go too," I say as I get up and James gets up behind me.

We walk out of the room as I turn for Lauren's room.

"Where you doing?" James asks as I place my green flats.

"Getting shoes on," I say as we both walk up front to see Dustin and Lauren just sitting around.

"I will see you tomorrow," I say as I go over to her as I hug her.

"Alright, you can come back for girls night dinner," Lauren says.

"Sure, we can do that. Ill see you later then,"
I walk to the door as Eddie opens it.

"Don't go running down the hall," Me and James say at the same time.
We walk to the elevator as it opens.

After walking in Eddie hits the 1 button.

"You copycated me," James says.

"I think you did to me," I say as James leans over and kisses me.

"Stop thats gross," Eddie says as the doors open.
 We walk out of the apartment building as Ricky came over with my keys.

"Thank you," I say as I watch James racing Eddie to the car.

"Be careful," I yell.

"Cute family," Ricky says.

"thank you, they mean everything to me,"
I go running after them as when I get to the car, James is closing the door.

"He go in?" I ask as James comes running after me as he picks me up.

"James let me down," I say as he kisses me so hard as he puts me on the ground.

"I'm gonna marry you," James says as I smile.
 He places another kiss on me as we walk to the car.

I get into the drviers side as I begin the car up as James gets in.

Then I take off down the road as I turn around.

"Where are we going?" James asks.

"To one of Eddie's favorite parks," I say.

"The playground!" Eddie says excitely.

"Yep," I say.

"Where is that?" James asks.

"It's up the road daddy," Eddie says.
I drive the short distance to the park as I park the car.

"Can I get out?" Eddie asks.

"Stay on the playground area until mommy and Daddy gets out," I say as he shoots out of the car.

"Does he always have that much energy?" James asks as I get out of the car.
Walking around, James is outside of the car.

"Sometimes, not always,"

"Are you sure you can't go with me on the trip?"

"I'm sure that I can't. I know Eddie would say different but school is best for him since we missed today,"

"I wish you wasn't right,"

"I know, you know I would go with you in a heartbeat,"

"I know,"

"Daddy come play, you too mommy,"Eddie says.

"We were summons," I say as me and James go running up to the playground.

"What do you want to play?" James asks as Eddie coming down the slide and tag James.
I start running before Eddie says" Your it"

I knew James would come after me as I climb up the playground.

"You better watch out mommy," Eddie says as I watch James like a hawk until he gets on the playground equiement.

"Ahh," I scream as I jump off and run until I turn around to see my son coming after me.
2 on 1 how is that far?

"Eddie your not on daddy's team," I say as I run and as I head back for the playground James tags me as I pass by.

"Your it," James says.
He goes running off as Eddie runs up and tags me.

"Daddy already got me, Eddie help me get daddy. Please?" I ask.

"Ok mommy," Eddie says as he goes after James as I watch then joined in as James jumps off the playground and I tag him.

"Got you back," I say as James grabs my hands as I fall on top of him.

"What are you doing?" I ask as he le.ans up and kisses me.

"Dog pile," I hear Eddie say as he gets on top of me.
I just laugh as Eddie wiggles.

We all then get up and begin to play again and of course James got Eddie on his team. Then when I was it me and James go after him.

"I'll be right back," James says as he walks over to the side to answer his phone.

"what he doing?" Eddie asks.

"Talking on the phone, go back to playing," I say as I walk over to him.

"Alright see you soon man, bye," James says as he walks over to me.

"It's bye bye time," James says.

"I'll call him in, EDWARD come on its time to go!!" I yell as Eddie comes running up.

"Do we have too?" Eddie asks.

"Yep, you and mommy got to drive me to the airport," James says as Eddie goes over to James and hugs him.

"I want to go," eddie says.

"We can't sweetie, we got school for another 2 days then the weekend,"

"When you coming back daddy?"

"Not until Sunday," James says.

"thats awhile, I want to go," Eddie says as he begins to kick and go running off.
i sigh.

"I'll go get him, Eddie," James says as he goes running after i son as I see James wrapping his arms around Eddie and talking to him.

He then places him down as they hold hands walking up.

"You ok?" I ask.

"Yes mommy, me sorry," Eddie says as he walks over to me and wraps his little arms around my legs.

"Let's get in the car and head for the airport,"
Eddie walks in front of me and James as we head back.

"What did you say to him?" I ask.

"I told him when I get back in on Sunday that i will come over and stay the night. i said mommy should be ok with it," James says as he smiles.

"I'm more then ok with it since i'm going to pick you up,"

"I forgot about that,"

"James, your funny,"
We walk to the car with all smiles as I see Eddie opening the door getting into the car.

"He must be really happy," I say as i look in as he was buckling up, so I shut the door.
I get in on the drivers side as I see James getting in.

After starting the car up, I pull out and down the road we go.

I go back the same way as before so I can get on the road that leads home.

"Is he sleeping?" I ask as I stop at the stop light.

"Yea he is out," James says.

"Good, maybe we should have waited to tell him,"

"I'm glad he knows now, now I can start my life with him and his beauiful mom,"
i smile as  stop at the stoplight by Lauren's.

My head turns to the right as I see Dustin and no it can't be.

"James do you see what I see?" I ask.

"No, what do you see?" James asks as I point to it.

"what the fuck?" James says.

"Thats Ariel, isnt it?"

"yeah and Jeffrey. Why the fuck is he doing that for?"

"I dont know but if Lauren seeing this, it will be hard. I just want to slap them. He's cheating on Lauren," I say as the light goes green.
James rolled down his window and says "Your caught you asshole,"
He rolls it back up as we head down the road and my phone rings.

James answers it

"Hello. yeah she is right here," James places it on the handsfree device on my dash.

"Whats up laur?" i ask.

"He cheated on me Kim, he cheated on me," Lauren says as she crys.

"I seen what he did and that girl is a slut," I say as I turn the wheel.

"I thought he would do that, that fucker. I hate him and my life,"

"Laur calm down sweetie, when I drop James off I'll be back,"

"I'll get him Lauren, i promise you that one. You are family to Kimberly so that means your my family too," James says.

"thanks James, hurry back Kim,"
She hangs up as James does with my phone.

"I knew she would react like this," I say.

"Happened before?" James asks.

"Yeah, she is always destroied about it,"

"I can see why with Dust but man I never thought he was a cheater,"

"I didnt know the man but next time I see him, he is getting punched,"

"I'll take care of that, I believe me and him are roommates this time since Geno has his own room now like Sidney,"

"James don't just talk to him then punch him,"
That made both of use laugh as he contuine talking about what just happened.

I then pull to the airport parking lot as James told me to drive on passed to the back of the airport.
He then tells me to park where all the other cars where at.

"I will see you and Eddie Sunday," James says as he leans over and hugs me tight.

"We will be here," I say.

"I love you," James says as he kisses me with great passion.

"Love you too," I say as he opens the door an gets out.
I watch him walk away as I turn the wheel and leave the airport and head home.

I am worried about Lauren so much that I speed a little to make it to her faster.

Instead of doing Valet, I turn to the left and park the car in the parking lot.

"mommy where are we?"Eddie asks as i open my door.

"At Aunt Lauren's," I say as I close one door and open the other as eddie gets out of the car.

"Where is daddy at?" Eddie asks as I grab his hand.

"He is at the airport waiting to go bye byes,"
We walk into the building as the elevator doors open without me pressing the button.

We get in as I hit the level Lauren lives on.

"I miss daddy," Eddie says.

"He will be back sweetie, we are picking him up on Sunday and he is going to call mommy's cell phone to say good night,"

"I want my daddy,"
He begins to cry as the door opens.

"We will see daddy on sunday,"
I walk down the hall as i knock on Laurens door, walking in.

I turn to see Lauren cuddled up with herself crying.

"Can you go play hockey? Daddy is in that game," i say as he stops crying, running into his room.

I walk over and sit by Lauren as I try to comfort her.

"He said he would never do that," Lauren says as she sits up and leans on me crying.

"Forget about him, hes a no body," I say.
I just sit on the couch with her as she crys her eyes out.

Chapter 12// Being a family

Opening my eyes I stare at the enternce to the bathroom as a light is on.

"James?" I ask
He walks out of the bathroom just in his boxers.

"Wow,"
I get out of the bed as I walk over to him.

"You sleep well?" James asks.

"Thats the best sleep I've had since I was pregnant with Eddie,"
I wrap my arms around him as he does the same.

"I called the school and told them you needed a sub for your class then Eddie wouldn't be there,"

"Thank you,"

"Do you want to take a hot bath with me before we got tell our son the good news?"

"Sure, wait is it hot or warm? I can't take a really hot bath,"
James chuckles.

"It's hot but closer to the warm stage," James says as he guides me into the bathroom.

It was all ready with bubbles on top.

"Aww James, did you do this to all the women you slept with?" I ask as I climb up then get into the tub.

"Nope, this is the first time I've done it with any woman,"
I watch as he gets into the bath with me.

"I love this tub," I say as I lean back onto James.

"Me too,"

I just lay there with James as we talked about us as a couple.

"I need to tweet a picture of us," James says as I smile.

"To let fans be angry?" I ask.

"They will be happy unless they are super fans then thats another story,"
I giggle as I hear something.

"They can call or come back," James says as the sound wouldn't stop.

"Guhh, I got to answer the door. I'll be back,"
He gets out of the tub as he places a robe on.


James POV

I walk down the stairs as I look out of the window

It's Ariel and I know she wasn't gonna go away, so I open the door.

"What the fuck are you doing here?" I ask as I step outside.

"To live here duh,"
She has like 4 suitcases besides her.

"No you are not, we are no longer together. I am very happy with my girlfriend,"

"James you are kidding me? We never broke up,"
I knew I yelled her that we did back when.

"Yes we did, I have moved on now how about you do the same,"
I turned around as Ariel pulled my robe as I fell on the ground.

"What the fuck Ariel," I say as I get back up.

"Knocking some sense into you,"

"We are done, end of conversation. Now leave,"
I walk backwards into the house as I close the door, locking it too.

She is the weirdest person.
I look through the curtains as she is just standing there crying.

"Thats it Ariel," I say to myself as I grab the home phone and dial the police department.

"Hello, whats your emergncy?" A lady asks.

"Hi my name is James Neal and my crazy psycho of a ex-girlfriend is on my property. I told her to leave and she will not,"

"Ok whats the address?"
I give her the address.

"Units are on there way,"
I talked to the lady until I heard the sirens.

I open the door and she is crying.

"I called and cops on you Ariel," I say.

"Whats for? I'm your girlfriend," Ariel says as I feel a hand on my shoulder.

"Ariel get up and leave. You don't belong at my boyfriend's house,"

"Ohh the bitch is here. Why you cheating on me?"
She crys harder as I seen Paul walking over as the police stop.

"What the hell is going on?" Paul asks.

"My boyfriend won't let me in," Ariel says, not knowing it was Paul.

"He isn't your boyfriend, he is Kim's boyfriend," Paul says.

"Ok what seems to be the problem?" An officer asks.

"My ex girlfriend will not leave and I told her many times too," I say.

"He is my boyfriend," Ariel says as I let a sigh out.

"She is his ex officer," Paul says.

"Ma'am you need to leave the property, if you refuse I will take you into custody,"
Ariel didn't move as another officer walks up.

They put her on the ground and arrested her.

"James help me!!!" She screams as she gets put in the back of the car.

The car pulls off down the road.

"I didn't relize she was such a crazy girl," Kim says as I see her in my other robe.

"James you picked a winner I think," Paul says.

"Get back to your house Paulie and thanks," I say.

"No problem Neal,"
I walk back into the house behind Kim.


Kimberly's POV

"I didn't expect that," James says as he wraps his arms around me.

"Me neither, I thought she left," I say as James kisses my neck.

"Want to do a quicky?"

"James we need to head out before you have to leave,"
I turn around to face him as he kisses me.

"Want to wear that dress again?"

"No, I hope you have something I can wear,"

"I probably do but might be too big for you,"

"I don't care, I'm not wearing the dress again,"

I move around him as I got running up the stairs and I knew he was behind me.

"I'm going to get you," James says as I go into his room.
I was cornered as James picks me up into his arms.

"I caught you,"

"You already had me," I say as he kisses me.
I wrap my legs around him as we contuine to kiss each other.

He then places me on the bed as he unties the robe I have on.

He kisses me from my lips as he makes his way down my body.

"James we shouldn't do this," I say, knowing I want it.

"I wish you wasn't right," James says as he kisses me one last time before getting off the bed.

I watch as he goes over to his dresser.

He then turns around and throws a pair of sweatpants and a shirt.
It has a little penguin on the pants and Penguins Hockey on the shirt with his number on the top.

"The pants have a string on them, so you can fit into them," James says as he strips out of his robe in front of me.

"Have a pair of boxers? dirty panties," I ask as I get off the bed and place the shirt on.
He hands me a pair as I finish getting dressed.

"I never thought a girl would look so good in my clothes,"

"Shut up James,"
He walks over and kiss me as I head out of the room.

"Where you going?"

"To get some food,"
I head down the stairs as I try and find the kicthen,

When I did, I open a cover as I pull down some Oreo cookies.
I grab like 5 as I put them away and walk out of the kicthen as James stands there.

"Where are my Oreos?" James asks.

"In the cover," I say as I eat the rest of the oreos as James eat a few he grabbed from the cover.

"We ready to go get our son?" James asks as he walks over to me.

"No, I got to go get Lauren's dress and shoes,"
James just heads upstairs

Guess he was getting the dress and shoes for me.

"Got them,"
I see he has the dress and shoes in his hand.

"Ok, now we are ready,"
Me and James walk out of the door as we head over to my car.

After getting to the car, I open the door and get in as James places the dress in the back.

"So you want to drive back?" James asks.

"I have no idea how to get back," I say as he hops into the front seat.
He begins the car and backs out to get onto the road.

"So you know when we move in together, we can't be doing sex," I say, jokingly.

"Nah, i know we can. When he is asleep," James says as he grabs my hand in his.

The entire way to Pittsburgh, we just talk how we are going to tell Eddie together.

James parks the car as Ricky opens the door.

"Thank you, you can go ahead and park it," I say as I get out and walk with James into the building.

"So we ever going to get your car?" I ask as he hits the button.

"I'll wait until I get back to go get it. It will be fine there," James says as we walk into the elvator.

"So that means I'm taking you?"

"You don't have too but I would like you too,"

I kiss him as the doors open up.

We walk down the hall to Lauren's apartment.

"You ready?"

"Yeah I am, he needs to know he has a daddy,"
I knock on the door as the door opens up.

"Mommy!!" Eddie screams as I pick him up into my arms.

"Hey did you miss me?" I ask.

"Yes, Auntie Lauren and Uncle Dustin were fun but I missed you,"
I look over at Lauren

"Good, hey lets go back to your room. mommy and James need to tell you something,"
I place him down on the floor as I follow him into his room.

Once in there, James closes the door as I place Eddie on the bed.

I sit on one side of him as James sits on the other side of him.

"Remember when I told you that you had a daddy?" I ask.

"Yes,"

"Well James is your daddy,"
Eddie looks at James as he jumps into his lap.

"Your my daddy?" Eddie asks.

"Yes I am, and I love you so much," James says as I see him begin to cry as Eddie wraps his little arms around him.

This made me cry.

"So I can call you daddy?" Eddie asks as he wipes James's tears away.

"Yes Eddie, you can call me daddy,"

"I love you daddy, I love you too mommy,"
I hug my son and James
James then places a kiss on my lips.

Chapter 11// Sexy Animals

 *Warning for thoses who are under 18, this chapter has some dirty, very dirty things happening*


Walking into the locker room he takes my hand as we walk into a hall connected to the locker room then down the hall.

"Where are we going?" I ask.

"Going to make out," James says.
I stop him.

"Not here, lets wait until we get out of here," I say.

"Alright, head back into the locker room and I'll be right there,"
I head back into the locker room as I see Dustin, so I walk over and sit next to him.

"Whats your name by the way?" Dustin asks.

"Kimberly, you couldn't hear it when James went out?" I ask.

"I forgot, so how do you know Laur?"

"He have been friends for years, met at school and I moved in with her,"

"Ahh gotacha. So should I expect your son to be asleep by the time I get back?"

"Yeah he should be, its passed 9,"

"Alright,"

"You two havent done it have you?"

"Oh no, Lauren wants to be married before we do,"

"How long you been going?"

"About a year now,"

"Can't believe I just found out. She want making me think she was single,"

"We wanted to keep in a secret,"

"I understand,"

"Well I'm ready to go," James says as I get up.

"See you later Dustin," I say as me and James walk out of the locker room to see Sidney.

"James I need to talk to you," Sidney says.

"say what you need to in front of Kimberly too," James says.

"I'm sorry that I hit you and for everything I've done to hurt you. I'm sorry to you too Kimberly. You look pretty happy. I was just hoping I could have dated you and had Eddie with you. I'm glad you are a family now, I know how important it is for Eddie to have that," Sid says.

"Thanks Sid," James says as we walk passed him and to the hall to the main hall of the center.

"Still in the mood?" James asks.

"Yes, you?"
James just stops and kisses me everywhere.

"Thats as yes,"
We walk out of the center as we walk to the light.

After it turns the walking dude we run across the street as we reach the valet.

"Here you go Miss James," he says as he hands me my keys.

"Thanks," I say just as James grabs them.

"I'm driving,"
We walk over to the car as we get in and then he takes off down the road.

"We are going to my place," James says as he takes off down the road.
He makes his hand come over to me as he places his hand on my leg as he goes up and down.

The whole trip, James couldn't keep his hand off of me and at every red light he kisses the crap out of me.

He pulls into the driveway as he parks his car by the front door.

I quickly get out of the car as I walk to his side.
Once he got out, he wraps his arms around me as he places his lips on mine.

"Your taking my breath, let's get in," I say we walk up to the door.
He opens the door as he lets me go in first.

"Up the stairs," James says as I walk up the stairs as I turn and walk down the hall as I walk into the last room.
James closes the door as he strips out of his pants and shirt.

He walks over to me and whispers "You need to get out of that dress,"

"Up zip me?" I ask as I turn around.
I felt James unzipping it as I falls on the floor.

Turning around I see something in James boxers.

"He must be happy," I say as I got pushed on the bed.

"Very," James says as his lips meet with mine.
I open my eyes as he begins to kiss me on my face then down my neck then he reached my boobs area.
James just grabs at my bra and lifts it up as he sucks on my nipples.

"Your making me wet James," I say as he reaches into my panties.

"Oh yeah you are, we don't need theses," James says as he just takes my panties off.
He then contuines to kiss me until he reaches my sentsitive area.

He pushes my legs open as he begins to lick the area.

"God James,"
He then enters a finger.

I just moan until I feel him start kissing my body again up to my lips.
Once he does, he kisses me so hard and passionately.

I then feel him taking off his boxers as he teases me around my area.

"James you are going to put that in me or something," I say as I feel it slowly going in and out.

"James, quit teasing,"
He then begins to go in and out of me faster

"oh my god James, don't remember you being this big,"

"It's been forever Kim,"
He just kisses me as he goes slow again.

I look at him as he does at me as he goes faster and faster.

"Fuck James!!!" I yell.
I feel my legs getting weak as I knew what I just did then I felt James come into me.

He then lays down on top of me.

"I love you," James says as he kisses me.

"I love you too James," I say as he rolls off of me and to the other side of me.
I just lay there in shocked, I just told him I loved him.

"Want under the covers with me?" James asks as I move up and get under the covers with him.
I get on my side, so we can spoon.

"I really do love you Kimberly," James says as I turn over and face him.

"I know and I meant it as well," I say as James kisses me on the nose.

"You are doing it next time,"

"Alright, you know i can ride,"

"I faintly remember the sex,"
I just laugh a little as I yawned.

"Do you have to pick Eddie up at a certain time?"

"I have to get up early and call off tomorrow,"

"Alright, well I can get you up if need be,"

"Thanks James,"
He kisses my lips.

"No problem, oh I leave tomorrow for Philly then to Toronto,"

"Alright, I will miss you," I say as I hug him.

"I want you and Eddie to come with me,"

"James that too much, I know I want to be with you but I can't take Eddie. He needs to stay with school,"

"I understand, I want whats best for him,"

"Good, so we going to tell him tomorrow?"

"Yes before I leave,"

"James that would crush him,"

"Ok in the morning when we go there,"

I smile.

"There you go,"
I just kiss him as I place my hand on his chest as he is laying flat.

"You going to bed?" he asks.
I yawn.

"Yes I'm tired," I say.

"Ok, go onto sleep, I will be right here in the morning,"
I shut my eyes as I say "I love you"

Chapter 10// What would I have done if you wasnt in my life?

We just sit by the rivers as the sound makes me happy for some reason.

"Wish I could ask you to marry me," James says.

"Really? I'm just some girl you met James. Your getting to know her,"

"I know I will spend my entire life with her,"
Just as he does that the phone rings.

"Great, its you this time," I say as I move up and turn around to face him.

"Hello, hey Geno, whats up? That event is tonight? I completely forgot about it cause I made plans tonight. Yes with her, think I could? Alright see you soon,"

"What did you forget about?"

"The Skate and Plates event that is tonight, so my other plans will have to wait another night,"

"So you gonna drop me off at Laurens on your way?"

"No, would you like to come with me?"

"You sure? i dont have a dress or anything like that,"

"I'm sure I want you there, we can buy you a dress,"

"I think Lauren might have a dress I can go in, can we stop on the way?"

"Sure, whatever you want,"
I smile

James seems like a better guy then I thought he was. I thought he used to sleep with woman left and right and he maybe did. Now he wants to settle down?

"James do you want to settle down?" I ask.

"I do want too but I want to be in this dating stage too," James says.

"Well if me and Eddie move in, that means your settling down,"
I never thought I would settle down this early in my life.

"That is very true, well I would want to settle down then,"
I just smile at him.

We sit down at the park until it get close to sunset then head back into the big city.

He grabs my hand in his as we cross all the streets that we need to.

Once we reached Lauren's, James opens the door.

"Thank you," I say as I walk in and hit the button.

The doors open as we get in and go up to Lauren's level.

Once the doors open again, I walk down to her door and knock on it.

 "Hey you two are back," Lauren says as she opens the door as me and James walk in.

"He still napping?" I ask.

"Oh no, he is watching TV, so how did it go?"

"We are dating now and talked how we was going to tell Eddie," James says.

"Good, so why you all doing here?" Lauren asks.

"Do you have any dress I can borrow?"

"I probably do, walk with me. We will be back James,"


She pulls me back to her room as she opens the closet and pulls out this long black dress.
 It has like white sparkles in it as well.

"This one is perfect for you," Lauren says as she hands it to me.

"It's pretty,"

"Go change while I find the shoes,"
I sigh as I go into the bathroom and change from my teacher clothes to the dress that she picked out.

It is so beauiful on me as Lauren walks in as she places the shoes on the floor.
I step in them as it makes me a little higher.

"Sit down,"
I sit down as she begins to do my hair.

"So going to ever tell me who your boyfriend is?" I ask.

" He is on the Penguins," she says.

"Do what? really?"

"Yes he isn't too popular like Sid is,"

"No one can be famous like him, so who is it?"

"Dustin,"

"Aww, wait are you suppose to go to the even tonight?"

"No, I told him I was babysitting my god-son. He says he will come by after so he can hang out,"

"Do you mind if Eddie stays here tonight in case James wants to take me some where afterwards?"

"Sure, it's always a fun night when he is over here and Dustin gets to meet him again,"
I laugh as she finishes my hair.

It has two little braids in the front going to the back with to a ponytail that is braided.

"Thank's Lauren," I say as we both walk out of the bathroom and head up front.

"Wow you look amazing," James says.

"Thank you," I say.

"Go enjoy your night together, I will keep Eddie over night if need be," Lauren says.
I walk over to her and hug her.

"Thanks girl," I say.

"No problem, now go to the event,"
James opens the door as I walk out.

"You look awesome," James says as he hits the button.
We get in.

"Thank you, can't wait to see what you look like,"
The doors open and we walk out and head for the cross walk.

"I think I'll look sharp,"
I smile as James grabs my hand as we cross the street, instead of going left we went right as we head for the back of CEC.

We then walk passed a gate as we head for the parking garage.
Then we head inside from there.

"Have to come in through the back instead of the front," James says.

"I already knew that," I say as we head down the path way as we turn right.

"Think I can go into the locker room?"

"You are going into the locker room,"
We walk straight into the locker room.

"Hey there he is," Geno says.

"Yep I'm a little late," James says.

"You were here yesterday?" Geno asks.

"Yep with my son," I say.

"You look pretty,"

"Thank you Geno,"

"James get in here and change," TK yells.

"I'll be back," James says as he then whispers something into Geno's ear.

"Ok,"
James runs off into the other room.

"So how is son?"

"He is doing good, thank you for signing his shirt by the way,"

"No problem. You can sit by me,"
I take a seat by him as I seen flower.

"Hey Flower," I say.

"Hey Kim, your here again?"

"Yep,"

"where is your son?"

"Across the street at a friends, he has no idea I'm here,"

"Ahh, wait who you with?"

"James,"

"Nealer? Your lucky he is a good guy by what Matt talks about,"

"Yeah he is,"

"Can I sit beside you?"

"Sure flower,"
He takes a seat beside me as him and Geno lip talk each other.
I smile by I knew what they were saying.

"Protect Kimberly from Sidney,"

"Kimberly?"
It is Sidney.

"Hi Sid," I say as Geno got closer to me.

"Where is Eddie?"

"None of your business Sidney, he isn't yours so don't worry,"

"Ok I'm tired of you and Nealer telling me that when he is,"

"We did and DNA test and James is the father Sid, not you,"

"DNA tests take weeks Kim, not minutes,"

"Then you don't know where to get them done at then,"

"So you cheated on me with him?"

"We wasn't dating!"
I stand up.

"Yes we were,"

"No we was not,"
He gets closer to me as Geno got up.

"Sit down Geno, this is between me and her,"

"No, I protect her,"

"You had James tell him that,"

"No, Sidney we never dated, we were fuck buddies when I was a slut ok?"

"I love you Kimberly,"
I then see James walk into the room.

"Cros leave her alone, now," James says.
Sidney turns around.

"Who is gonna make me?" Sid asks as I see James pulls Sid's shirt to move him back.

"Thats how, leave her alone. She isn't yours and neither is my son,"
Sid turns to face James.

"He's my son Nealer,"

"Bullshit Sid, we did a DNA test,"

"It was shitting you,"

"Yeah right, she is my girlfriend and he is my son. Ok they are my family,"

"Family really?"
Sid then punches James as he falls on the floor.

"Sidney!!!" I yell as I walk over to James who is holding his face.

"What the fuck is wrong with you? You have changed," I say as I help get James up.
I turn to see Geno and Flower moving Sid back.

"Your a slut and always will be," Sid yells.
James looks at me as he kisses me right in front of him.

"Fuck you Sid!!!" I yell.

"What is going on in here? James you ok?" Dan asks.

"Sidney punched James. they got into an argument and he hit Nealer," Flower says.

"Sid I am going to tell Ray about this, James you ok?"

"I'm ok,"
I look at James as he is forming a black eye on his left eye.

"Sid come with me," Dan says as Sid walks out with him.
He has changed from his nice guy to this asshole.

I wrap my arms around James as he does the same.

"think you need to go get make-up on that?" Geno asks.

"Nah, I don't want to do that," James says.

"Alright,"

For a few minutes, I just stand there with James until Dan comes into the line everyone up.
Alot of the players girlfriends or wives were there in the line.

"Women I want you too walk out behind your boyfriend or husbands, we will introduce you as well to the people who are here," Dan says.
He then walks over to me.

"Whats your last name Kimberly?" he asks.

"James," I say.

"Alright, I will be right back,"
He walks out of the room as I get in line behind James and in front of Dustin Jeffrey.

"Sorry Lauren couldn't be here," I say.

"How did you, your friends with her?" he asks.

"Yeah, shes babysitting my son,"

"Ohh thats ok. I know she loves babysitting Eddie,"

"Ok turn around and lets go," Dan says as I did and begin to walk.

We stop as I hear the announcer begin to say the names.

"#18, James Neal,"
James walks out.

"And his girlfriend, Kimberly James,"
I walk out nervous as all get go as I just follow James.

After introductions was over, they explained to me that I will be helping James serve to his table, which I didn't mind.

I walked back and forth for some of the night from one table to the one James was serving at.

I then walk over and stand next to another lady.

"I didn't know James had a girlfriend," she says to me.

"He just got me today, I'm Kimberly," I say.

"I'm Erin, Brooks Orpik's wife and this is Carole-Lyn, Pascal Dupuis wife," Erin says.

"Nice to meet you Kimberly," Carole-Lyn says.

"You too," I say.

I just chat with them as I watch James talk and posing with pictures.

"James is a great guy, glad we got him," Erin says.

"me too if not I wouldn't have met you ladies," I say.

"True, so are you from here?" Carole-Lyn asks.

"No, I've lived here on and off,"

"Ahh, so do you have any kids?" Erin asks.

"i have a son with James who is almost 6,"

"With James? How did that happen?" Erin asks.

"A one night stand when he was in town,"

"Wow, have you told your son or does he know?" Carole-Lyn asks.

"Not yet we are planning on it,"

The event goes on as people begin to leave.

"Hey come here," James says as he points to me.

"Glad to meet you ladies," I say as i walk off.

"Yes," I say as James places his arm around my waist as I move closer to him.

"What you doing?" I ask as I seen TK with a phone in his hands.

"Just smile,"
I did as he asks as I smile with him as TK took a few pictures.

"Thanks TK," James says as Tyler hands him the phone.

"No problem, your lucky," Tyler says as he walks away.

James goes through the pictures as I look with him as he stops at a picture that I loved.

"I like that one," I say.

"Me too,"
He hits some buttons as he closes it and opens it.
It was on his phone.

"Aww," I say as he turns and leans over to kiss me.

"Have any plans tonight?" I ask.

"Not tonight, but what I was going to do will be another night," James says.

"Alright,"
He places his arm around me shoulders as we head for the locker room area.

Chapter 9// Your mine now

"I want Primanti Bros.," I say.

"I have never had that with living in Pittsburgh for the past 2 years," James says.

"Oh you gotta try it, I'm sure people will respect you they do all the celebrities that come through,"

"Alright,"
I open the door to the small resturant and walk in.

"Welcome, have a seat anywhere," A man says.

"Where do you want to sit at?" I ask.

"Lets sit in the back, I want to atleast talk,"
That caused me to giggle as we head back and sit in the booth.

James picked up a menu and I didn't. i knew what I wanted and I get it every time I'm in here.

"Welcome hey do I know you from somewhere?" The guy asks.

"You should," James says.

"Your James Neal aren't you?"

"You caught me, how you doing?"

"I'm fine, glad you finally came in this place. Can we have you autograph the shirt we have of you?"

"Sure no problem,"

"Thanks, so are we ready?"

"I believe we are. I will take Pitts-Burgher cheese steak with a coke,"

"I want the same thing but mine with a sprite,"

"Alright, coming up,"
He walks away.

"How often you come here?" James asks as I laugh.

"Often, I love it here," I say.

"Ok so are you from Pittsburgh?"

"No I'm not, I'm from Cole Harbour...

"Nova Scotia?"

"Yep but I moved at a I believe 5 or 6 to Columbus, Ohio for my dad's job. They still live there in the same house,"

"I know moving sucks expectally from that distance. Have you ever gone back to Cole Harbour?"

"Nope and nor will I. I seen pictures up of the welcome sign and it says the home of Sidney Crosby one it. No thanks,"

"How was living in Columbus?"

"It was good, I got back when I can. So where you from?"

"Whitby, Ontario, its a city north east of Toronto,"

"Is it nice?"

"Oh yeah it is, I got back home whenever I can,"

"So how many siblings you have?"

"Four with me being oldest,"

"Yikes, I dont want that many,"

"I want atleast 2 and I got one so leaves one,"
I smile as James leans over the table and kisses me.

"I want my other one with you,"

"James we are now getting to know each other,"

"Doesn't matter, I want you to be my children's mother,"
I wanted to cry.

"Aww James,"

"Here are your drinks and sandwiches, enjoy," a man says as he walks away.

"Thank you," James says as I pick up the sandwich and begin to eat it slowly.

After eating it, I lean back.

"I'm full," I say as James wipes his mouth off.

"Me too, guess we will be sitting here for awhile ,"

"Yeah, so did you get a house here yet?"

"Nah, I'm in an apartment right now, looking into buying a house here,"

"Ahh, are me and Eddie going house hunting with you two?"

"I would like that, if you wouldn't mind. I mean you two will be living with me in the future,"
 I smile.

Me and James talk about what we want and we want the same thing. He says his playboy days are behind him and looking forward to become a family man.

"So got plans for dinner?" I ask as we get up and walk out.

"I'm not sure yet," James says as a phone begins to go off.

"It's me," I say a I flip it open.

"Hello," I say.

"Hey sweetie,"
It's my mom.

"Hey mom how are you?" I ask.

"I'm good, how is my grandson?"

"He is good, he is at Lauren's right now,"

"Why is he there?"

"I'm with my boyfriend,"

"Boyfriend? you don't have a boyfriend?"

"Yes I do and he happens to be Eddie's dad,"

"What are you talking about? You dont know who he is,"

"Ok mom, I had a one night stand and the guy who was is now a part of the Penguins. We did a DNA test and he is the father,"

"Who is he? Sidney?"

"It isn't Crosby, it's James Neal,"

"Neal? What number is he?"

"18 mom,"

"Ohh I know who he is now, he was your one night stand?"

"Mom your playing dumb,"
I hear her laughing.

"I'm giving you crap sweetie, I'm glad you found out who Eddie's dad is,"

"Thanks mom and I knew you were. So how is little Tanner?"

"He's 13,"

"Still little to me,"

"He's gotten tall in the past 3 years,"

"I believe it, hey mom I'm going to go. Talk to you soon,"

"Alright sweetie. I love you,"

"Love you mom. Bye-bye,"
I hang up.

"Sorry about that," I say.

"It's ok, my mom does that too. speaking of her I got to call and say she has her first grandson," James says.

"Hope she takes it well like my mom,"

"Me too but I will call her later. Rather be with you right now,"
I smile as he grabs my hand as we begin to walk.

We walk around the city as we talked and enjoy the sights until we crossed a road to get to the point.

"I never been down here," James says as we walk near the three rivers.

"Really? It's pretty in spring and summer, i was actually down here when the Penguins parade was happening too. Eddie was with Lauren,"

"I hope you can be here when I win the Stanley cup with the Pens,"

"I'll be here with you,"
James just leans over and kisses me with alot of passion.

We then sit down on the ground by where the rivers meet but not too close.
I am in between James's legs as he wraps his arms around me as we just sit there.
