A/N: I hope you all enjoy this. Reviews appreciated!

Beautiful doesn't want me to give her up. I would go by her words. We have a beautiful son together. She would be a great mother to little Jack. She's given me a chance to have a large and strong united family. I'm not going to give that up.

I can still feel her kiss on my lips. The feeling still lingers; just like it used to. I love her. I never stopped. We've been through so many things; paternities, betrayal, weddings, leaving, and so much more.

It's a cruel thing. I've always been in love with you, but I keep turning to other women whom I've loved but have not been in love with.

You're torn. I know that. When you're with Forrester, Hope and RJ you think of me and baby Jack. And when you are with me and Jack you think of them.

RJ is not my biological son. I know that. But I intend to treat him as one. I've already considered him as my own despite what the paternity test say. I consider Hope as my daughter. They love me. I know that. And I love them.

We can make it. We can become a family. The five of us together… Yeah, I love the sound of that.
