A sequel to Lost in Love
Emma: 16 Years old
Hayden and Jayden: 7 Years old
Emily and Maya: 35 Years old
Narrator POV:
The Fields-St. Germain clan moved back to California three years ago. Emily and Emma both started to train with Emily old Olympic coach. They both made trials and landed a spot on the U.S. Olympic team that will be going to Rio in June. Both are excited about this but mostly they are excited to be able to share this experience together.
Maya quit her job that summer and they packed up immediately and moved to California. She hated to say bye to what she now considers home but she was happy to do it for Emily and Emma careers. She still is a nurse but she doesn't work at a hospital anymore and she is relieved about that.
Jayden and Hayden are normal but very smart seven year old kids that like to have fun and pretty much do everything. They are happy and are enjoying living in California, especially since Grandma Anne is very close. They pretty much spend all the time they can at her house and going to the beach with Maya's cousins.
Chris and Lisa have been married for the past two years. not only are they new weds but they are new parents to a baby boy they call CJ. His name is Christopher Jr.
See everything with the family might seem the same but everything they think they know will soon change. This is the family we've become.
Maya POV:
I love being back in California. I get to be with my family all day and then go home to my favorite people. I just walked in the house and the twins should be home any minute. They have gotten so big over the last three years. Hayden has grown into this musical genius and can play anything. One day she was watching me play the cello and she just asked could she try and started to play. I was amazed to say the least and Jayden can do the same thing. It's quite amazing that they can just watch something being played and start playing immediately afterwards.
Jayden is really into sports. I'm terrified to put him into anything because the fear of him getting hurt. I know I let Emma swim but its swimming the chances of her getting hurt seriously is small. Jayden playing basketball or football like he wants to be greater and I can't have my baby boy getting hurt. I just want stand for it. But after he pouted and gave me the puppy dog eyes and the bottom lip I caved and told him he could play basketball.
The door goes flying open and the twins come running in screaming. "Hey! Hey!" the stop and stare at me. "Why are you screaming?" they look at me and shrug their shoulders.
"Why are you screaming?" Hayden asked. I hate that she got her sarcasm from me.
"Don't be funny. Do you guys have homework?"
"Yeah." the said walking to the kitchen.
"Grab a fruit and I'm coming to help you in a minute." I told them going upstairs to change out of my scrubs. For the pass year I have been working at my family's clinic in California. My parents own it but my aunt and uncle runs the place. They both are doctors and when I told them Emily and Emma had to come train here they offered me a job. I'm making the same amount I was making back in Rosewood so I can't complain.
"Mommy, Jayden hit me!" Hayden voice sounded through the entire house. I walked downstairs pulling my hair up and rolled my eyes before looking at them.
"Jayden keep your hands to yourself and Hayden stop yelling girl." I scolded them. "Get your homework out please."
"When are mommy and Emma coming home?" Jayden asked and I looked at the time on my phone.
"In about a hour." he nodded his head and started doing the math worksheet he had in front of him. I decided since they were working and not asking for help I would start cooking dinner.
Both Emily and Emma made it through trials and were getting ready for the Olympics in Rio. The Olympics were literally three weeks away. Emma had a week left in her junior year of high school and then she was going to be a senior. She was excited but Chris was not. He hated the fact that she was growing up too fast. I think he just hates the fact that he missed so much time with her.
Her coach allowed her to stay in public school as long as she made it to practice on time every day. She was an A/B student and she was an honor student on top of that so I was one proud Mama.
The doorbell ringing pulled me out of my thoughts. I walk to the front door to see Cassie Emma's friend standing there with a small. Cassie had an olive skin color with brown eyes. She has light wavy-curly brown hair that stop in the middle of her back. She was about five-five and wore nerd looking glasses. She had on a skull cap with skinny jeans and black boots. She reminded me of myself of how she dressed.
"Hey Cassie, Emma not home yet."
"Oh, I thought she would have been. I can—"
"Come in she should be here soon." she smiled and walked into the door. "Hungry? I'm making dinner."
"Sure, if you're offering." I laugh because every time this girl comes over she eats. For her to be so skinny she sure can eat. We walked into the kitchen and she ruffled Jayden hair.
"Cassie stop!" he yelled and she started laughing.
"Love you Jaydie." she said kissing his cheek. "Hey Haydie." Hayden waved but went back to concentrating on her homework. I grab a knife and hand it to Cassie.
"Start cutting the bell pepper." I tell her and she raised an eye brow at me. "Oh you thought you were going to eat and not help?"
"That was the plan." I laugh and shook my head.
"That happening cutie." I shook my head and went to cut Jayden Math homework.
"You know there are child labor laws right?" Cassie asked and I laughed even harder.
"You are not at some farm working, so stop ya' complaining and get to cut. The slower you cut the longer it takes to eat." she groan and started cutting. The doorbell rung again and I sighed. Who could this be? I asked myself before walking to the front door.
"Hey Mrs. G, is Emma home?" This is Jace, Emma's guy friend.
"No but come in she should be soon." Jace was five-nine with a low cut hair cut. He was a caramel color with light brown eyes. He was cute and I think Emma likes him but I know for sure he likes her. At least twice a week they go for a run. He was a track star at the high school he attends with Emma and Cassie. "We're in the kitchen. Want anything to drink?"
"No thanks." he follows me to the kitchen and froze in the entry.
"What is he doing here?" Cassie asked me with a death glare on Jace.
"I'm here because ME and Emma are going for a run." he told her glaring back at her.
"Mmhmm, well she can't go. WE have homework." she said with a smirk. As if on cue the front door opens and I hear Emily yell that they are home.
"In the kitchen." they walk in and Emma freezes in her spot seeing her friends standing in the kitchen.
"What are you guys doing here?"
"Homework."
"Run." they said at the same time.
"Homework comes first." Emily said kissing the twins before grabbing bottle water from the fridge. Emma has yet to move from her spot and she is expressing an uncomfortable look. I look at Cassie and Jace and something about their expression is weird.
"Jace, you heard my mom, homework first. We can run tomorrow. I promise." she squinted her eyes hoping he would say okay. As if he has a choice.
"Yeah, tomorrow." he said sounding disappointed. He gave Emma a hug and I seen her tense for a second before relaxing then I looked at Cassie and she was shoot daggers his way. Then it hit me, Cassie likes Emma. Jace left and Cassie went back to cutting the veggies I gave her. "I'm going to take a shower." Emma said walking out the kitchen.
"Hey baby." Emily said finally giving me a soft kiss on my lips.
"How was it today?"
"Intense. He is pushing us right now. He wants us to be the best."
"Understandable."
"Yeah, so need help cooking?"
"No, I got Cassie." I said smiling over at the girl. "But can you help them and check Jayden homework. Also we have a student teacher meeting tomorrow at the twins' school with their teacher." she nodded her head before sitting across from them. I seen my cell phone light up and I picked it up and smiled at the name.
Hey Chris what's up?
Nothing I decided to call and tell you the good news to spread
And what news would that be
Me and Lisa are moving to LA
Are you serious?
Yes we are opening a company over there and they want me over it so
That's great
Yeah and plus I really want the kids to bond with their brother
Yeah Jay would love that
I know my little man finally has some testosterone around him
He don't complain
No because he is spoiled by all you girls
Is not
Hanna, Spencer, Aria, Emily, Emma, You, both of your mothers; would you like me to continue
No I got it. When are you moving
We should be there before the end of June. Maya you know I want to tell Em what we did.
I walked outside on the back porch and shook my head.
No! She is going to be furious
We did it there is nothing she can do about it
That's the point we did it
Maya
Chris no please
She going to find out eventually
If you shut the hell up it won't
Whatever Maya. Tell everyone I said hey
Will do bye
I shake my head and walk back into the kitchen. "Maya, I finish cutting everything, can I go now or do you still need a servant?" this girl was just as sarcastic as Emma. I laugh shaking my head.
"No, you are free to go." she sighed and grabbed her bag and I heard her running up the stairs. "Cassie, stop running in my house!" I yelled after her and I heard a 'sorry' being yelled back. I put my phone on the counter and return to cooking.
"Daddy said hey babies." I told the twins and they smiled.
"Why did you give me the phone?" Hayden asked.
"He needed to talk to me about something and he said he will call tomorrow to talk to you guys." Hayden had a sad look on her face and I frown a little at the face. "But he said he loved you." she smiled brightly and seemed satisfied with that answer.
Emily looked at me and I put the chicken in the oven before nodding my head towards the back door. she followed me out and I shut the door before turning to her. "Chris is moving here."
"What?"
"his job is opening a company over here and he is going to be over it. Plus he will be closer to the kids."
"That's great. When?"
"Soon. He said he wants the kids to be able to bond with their brother."
"I still can't believe that he has a little boy." I nodded my head and Emily lifted my chin. "Why the long face?"
"nothing." I said smiling up at her. "Want me to run you a bath?"
"No I'll take one later." I nodded my head and stepped closer to her kissing her softly on the lips.
Emma POV:
I step out the bathroom and walk into my room with my towel around me. I put on my bra and panties when my door swings open. I cover myself before I realize who it is. I furrowed my eye brows and crossed my arms across my chest.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Why do you even have to ask? you should already know."
"I'm not a mind reader Em."
"Keep being a smart ass Cass." she chuckled before looking back at me.
"Jace."
"Yes, why do you have to be so mean to him?"
"I don't like him."
"why?"
"it complicated."
"well uncomplicated it for me and explain." I move over to my drawer pulling on a open side tank top and a pair of lose sweat pants.
"mad is cute on you." She stated smirking at me.
"Would you like to see how cute I am piss?" I raised my eye brow and she put her hands up in defense, sitting on my bed pulling out are Math textbook.
"we were friends growing up and now we're not. Simple enough now drop it." she demanded and I sat next to her grabbing my binder out of my bag.
"whatever, but I need you to understand that is my friend."
"yeah who you like."
"I don't—"
"please lie?"
"he likes me there is a difference."
"do you smell that?"
"smell what?"
"bullshit. because what you just said was bullshit and you and I both know that."
"whatever can we just do this work I'm tired." we work on our homework until my mom calls us down to eat. Once dinner is ate and Hayden has to go to bed Cassie walks upstairs to grab her things to leave.
"I'll see you tomorrow?"
"I'm going for a run tomorrow with Jace." with that statement her face harden but then her face soften.
"Okay, have fun doing that. Bye Maya and Emily it was nice seeing you guys." Cassie turns around and walks out the door without saying anything else to me. I walked outside shutting the door behind me and grabbed her wrist before she got in the car. "Stay." I said and she looked at me confused. "Spend the night."
"why?" she asked confused.
"because I want you too."
"get in." she said as I climbed into the car with her. she started the engine and pulls out the driveway. the next twenty minutes are spent in silence until we arrive at her house. she pulls into the drive way and we get out walking to her front door. she unlocks the door and we head upstairs.
"Cassie is that you!" her mother calls out.
"Yeah I came to get some clothes I'm spending the night at Em's house!" she yelled while still pulling me to her room. she grabs the rest of her books for school tomorrow and some clothes. I sit back on her bed and wait until she is done.
"Okay lets go." she said and open the door. "Bye mom!" she yelled and her mother walked up to us and smiled at me.
"Hey Emily."
"Hey."
"Don't you think you should ask before you decided you are just going to leave?"
"I figured you weren't going to be here and I wouldn't have to ask." Cassie mom was a doctor and worked the night shift at the hospital. she hated that her mom was never at home and when she was Cassie felt the distance between them. Her mom had remarried a few years ago and she hated her stepdad. And to add to the fact she disliked him, he moved in and so did his three kids. her mom tried to force her to share a room but she raised hell when that happen. She tries to spend as much time away from home as possible. her dad moved back to Puerto Rico and he tells her all the time she can move with him but she never accepts his offer. I think she hates the fact he left her here alone.
"Are you guys hungry?"
"nope we already ate. I love you mom but we have to leave." She kissed Cassie bye before pulling me into a hug.
"See you tomorrow." her mom said before we left. she threw her bag in the back seat of her car before driving the twenty minutes back to my house.
"You shouldn't be like that to her." I said finally breaking the silence.
"well she should try and be in my life more."
"its her job."
"no but when she is off she always up her husband ass and her stepkids'." she shook her head in disgust. "Have I mention how much I don't like those kids?"
"yes always." I chuckled. Her stepsiblings when 13, 10, and 4. They wanted the thirteen year old girl to share a room with Cassie so they could bond. When Cassie told me about that I couldn't help but laugh. We went back to silence and just listen to the music playing on the radio. we pulled back into my driveway and walked inside.
"Where the hell did you go?" mama asked and I swallowed. I knew I forgot something.
"We went to Cassie house. She spending the night." I stated softly and looked down.
"And when were you going to ask us or her parents?"
"My mom said it was okay before I came over earlier." she lied and I looked up.
"Plus you guys never care if she spends the night."
"That's not the point Emma, you're supposed to ask."
"sorry." I mumbled.
"Go upstairs and go to bed." mom said and I nodded before running up the stairs with Cassie behind.
"Stop running in my house!" Mama yelled at us.
"Sorry!" we both yelled back. I lay in bed watching TV while Cassie took a shower. I have been friends with almost three years. I meet her my freshmen year and we got really close instantly. something about her just drew us together and we have been together at all times since then. Cassie walks into my room with a sports bra and boy shorts on and climbs into bed.
"what are you watching?"
"nothing really. something specific you want to watch?" I looked over at her and she shook her head.
"no, whatever you watch is fine." after about thirty minutes of watching TV we decided to just go to sleep.
Emily POV:
I was washing the dishes much too Maya dismay. I walked upstairs checking on the kids seeing that they all were sound asleep. I walked into our room and seen Maya lying on the bed.
"I ran your bath water."
"thank you." I said grabbing some clothes to put on after my bath. "Are you coming?"
"go relax babe." I shook my head.
"I will relax better if you were behind me." I watched a smile come to her face but I could tell it was force. something was bothering her since she talked to Chris on the phone. I could tell she didn't want to talk about it and I knew at some point she would eventually tell me what was wrong. we climbed into the bath tub which was at the perfect temperature. I leaned my head against Maya's shoulder while she absentmindedly trailed her fingers up and down my side. we were silent but it was a comfortable silence.
"Cassie likes Emma." Maya said and I turned to look at her.
"No way." I said bringing my eye brows together.
"yes and Jace likes her too and Cassie knows he does and doesn't like it."
"how do you know?"
"did you not see how that were staring at each other and how Em looked when they both were standing there?" I shrugged my shoulders because I could see where she got that from.
"she might like them?"
"I don't know. I mean she did say she liked that girl once but she never brought it up again."
"yeah, I don't know, she will tell us when she figures it out herself." I state matter-of-factly.
"I hope so. either way I just want her to be happy."
"That's all we need."
"So tell me about practice?"
"Emma is really good. I watched her do the 200m and she is fast. She is my competition to beat." Maya started to laugh and I turn my head to look at her face. "What is so funny?"
"You." she laugh before speaking again. "Talking about beating your sixteen year old daughter."
"I want my gold medal and she is standing in my way in achieving it."
"how so?"
"found out today that couch has us competing against one another in the 100m. Only one can get the gold in that division." I state. "But, if she wins I will be happy."
"you like winning."
"of course who doesn't but if I know I did my best that is all that matters." Maya kissed my temple and I smiled. "I love you."
"I love you too." we stayed in the bath until the water started to turn cold. we let the water out before turning on the shower to wash and get out. I climbed into bed and laid half my body on top of Maya's. I buried my face into her neck and kissed it softly.
"What did Chris say to make you upset?" I asked softly. curiousity finally got the best of me and I needed to know.
"nothing."
"it's something, I can tell."
"it just that I never thought I would have to deal with him having kids with someone else."
"what do you mean?"
"I don't know. It's just weird knowing that somebody else has kids by him other than me. its just a territory thing."
"but you have kids with me so what do you think that makes him feel like?"
"can we not talk about this? it was stupid." I rubbed her cheek with my thumb and turned her face to look at me.
"Nothing you think is stupid. I understand I do but he eventually had to move on."
"I know and I am happy for him it was just surreal when he said he wanted to kids to bond with their brother and that when it really hit me that I'm not his only Baby momma." I kissed her softly on the lips and smiled.
"my baby."
"shut up." she whine turning her head away only for me to turn it back and kiss her more passionately. I slide my tongue across her bottom lip and she open her mouth and our tongues dance around. a moan escaped both of our throats as the kiss heated up. Maya pulled back resting her head against my forehead trying to control her breathing. "Goodnight." she whispered and I snuggled back into her side.
I woke up to the sound of someone screaming. I look over at Maya and she is sound asleep. I step out of bed being sure not to wake her and went to Emma's room and seen that her and Cassie were both sleeping. I walk into the twin's room and they were sleep. I scratched my head and walked back to my room climbing back in bed.
"Where is you go?" Maya rasped out.
"I heard someone yell."
"you probably were dreaming baby, go back to sleep." I nodded my head and lay back down. Maya moved closer wrapping her arms around my waist. she kissed my neck snuggling into the crook of my neck. I fell back to sleep almost instantly.
Emma POV:
I woke up to my alarm and looked at Cassie. I pushed her and her eyes snapped open. "I almost fell." I chuckled before laying flat on my back.
"Stop snoring."
"I do not snore thank you."
"we have to get up."
"I really hate school." I nodded my head covering my eyes with my arm. I felt Cassie lay her head on my chest and wrap her arms around my waist.
"We need to get ready." I whine and she groan pushing her face into my stomach. I heard my door open but I didn't move. "we're up mama." I say. I don't hear nothing and I move my arm and see her just standing there.
"What are you guys doing?"
"dreading the process of getting ready." Cassie said before sitting up. "Can you get us ready like the twins?" I nodded my head agreeing and mama shook her head.
"Breakfast is downstairs when you are done up here." I groan before climbing out of bed. I grab some clothes and head for the bathroom.
I walked downstairs and Cassie was already eating and I grabbed a piece of toast and an orange. my phone rung and I looked at the screen smiling.
Hey daddy
hey baby girl good morning. you getting ready to leave for school
yeah I'm eating breakfast right now
have a good day okay
okay

yeah

Jay
"Jay, daddy wants to talk to you." I hand him my phone and he start talking to daddy smiling and telling him back school. Then he hands the phone to Hayden and she starts whining about how much she misses him. he must have said he will see her soon because she starts smiling and nodding her head. She walks over handing me my phone back and I put the phone to my ear.
Emma

I don't know if you moms told you but I'm moving to Cali
Are You Serious!
yeah we are opening a company over there and I'm running it
Daddy!
excited
yes I miss you and Lisa so much. plus I want to meet the baby

I love you too daddy
I hung up the phone with a huge smile on my face. I missed my dad in the last three years. I hated that he lived in New York and we lived in California. I got to see him on breaks and that was about it. He would call and text constantly but that doesn't compare to having him close by.
"Why are you so smiley?" Mom asked walking into the kitchen.
"Daddy called and told me the good news."
"he did?"
"yeah, I'm so excited I miss him so much."
"do I get to meet your dad?" Cassie asked looking at me hopeful. I smiled at her grabbing my book-bag heading for the door.
"Bye moms see you after school."
