Awww thank you for the reviews and love for my new story/sequel. Im excited to write this. I rewatched Containment last week and i think thats what spurred me on to continue. I genuinely feel like some of the scenes i created where going to be featured but was very sad when i forgot! Of course i barely made it to when Katie dies in the series. But i know the reason i wanted to continue with this. To have her live on in my series!
So of course they will have their moments...but that doesn't mean Jake and Katie wont have obstacles...its not a story otherwise is it?...
Jake didn't want to overstep his mark. Katie had made him feel very welcome in her home. But it wasn't his. He walked out from the bathroom and into her living room. Pictures of mainly her and Quentin. Ones of Quentin as a little boy and even Katie as a little girl. She was adorable. Questions appeared in his head of their future. It was definitely uncertain. But without a doubt he knew they would be together.
He casually walked into the kitchen as he saw Katie kiss Quentin's head and place a bowl in front of him.
"Really?" Quentin questioned his lip curled at the cereal.
Katie's mouth fell open, "Really?" She said back in response, "Over a month of canned food and you question lucky charms and milk? If i recall you were craving that the second day we were in there"
"Did i hear someone say lucky charms? Literally my favorite breakfast cereal" Jake walked further into the room and walked over to Katie and kissed her quickly on the cheek, "also the best server"
Katie smiled sweetly at him.
"Don't lie Pop" Quentin stated, "you told me you hated...ugh!" Jake had quickly but lightly slapped Quentin on the arm.
Jake sighed while taking a seat, "Something you gotta know buddy. When a lady serves you food...whether you like it or not. You say 'thank you sweetheart' and eat it...trust me, you will thank me in your teens"
Quentin scrunched up his face. Obviously at the thought of a girl. Which amused Jake. If only he knew. A couple of years and he wouln't do that at all.
Katie walked over and placed the cereal in front of him, "I can make you something else. Its not a problem"
Jake leaned over and took her hand, entwining their fingers together, "Thank you Sweetheart" he smiled and gave a quick wink to Quentin, who giggled. He took his free hand and picked up his spoon, taking a big bite, "mmm my favorite"
"God. What am i going to do with you two?" Katie shook her head and started moving her hand away from Jake's but he kept a firm grip on it.
She looked over at him and he gave her a soft smile. He didn't want to let go. Not just yet. This was what he had pictured. Just the 3 of them. Eating breakfast together and being able to hold the hand of the women he loves without the risk of infection. It was freeing.
The door suddenly rang and their eyes shot to it.
"Oh" Quentin said quietly.
"What sweetie?" Katie asked in concern.
"I might have called Grandma..."
Jake suddenly felt Katie's hand tense up. This was what she as constantly afraid of. He rubbed his thumb and gave her a squeeze.
"Well you better go open it buddy" Jake told him as Quentin jumped up and ran to the door. He quickly looked to Katie, "you ok?"
Katie nodded quickly, "Yeah i'm fine...just wanted a moment before...it...all happens again" she gave him a weak smile and he knew she wasn't fine. All the things Katie had told him. Grace blaming Katie for her sons drug habit. The number of times she had kept Katie from seeing Quentin in the first few years of his life. It hurt him.
She let go of his hand and got up, taking a deep breath she left the room and Jake followed her. He forgot that it wasn't just going to to be the 3 of them. Grace had custody too. Something he still couldn't wrap his head round. Katie was an amazing Mother. How she didn't have full custody of her own son puzzled him completely.
"Ah my sweet boy! Thank God your alright!" he walked into the room to see a slim women, dark hair, graying at the sides hug her grandson. It was true affection. Jake could see that. However it wasn't when she looked up at Katie.
"Grace" Katie nodded, hands in front of her nervous. A trait Jake had noticed about her.
"Katherine"
The tone was cold and it bothered Jake. He stepped forward to make his presence more known. The way she said Katie's full name was with distaste.
Grace's eyes fell on him and she looked like she took a moment before speaking, and turning her attention back to Quentin, "Grandpa is out in the car honey. Your going to spend the day with us so..."
"Im sorry?" Katie interjected quickly. Her tone was annoyed and surprised. Jake felt her emotions and moved forward placing a hand on her arm softly. She softened at his touch.
Grace patted her grandson's head, "Go and see him honey"
Quentin quickly looked to Katie for approval and she nodded, "Go and see him baby"
He grabbed his coat and ran outside. Grace moved over to the chair and sat herself down. Jake looked to Katie with trepidation. But she also moved and sat down on the sofa across from her. Jake found himself doing the same. With hands crossed infront of her on her handbag. She looked over at them both before speaking.
"Looks like we have a lot to catch up on Katherine"
