Jamie Devon

Felix POV

I just stood there, meeting her eye to eye. The last time I had gotten a chance to go visit her was over 3 years ago.

"Well Felix can't I get a hug?" Hayley called out to me.

I picked up the phone and strolled over to her, embracing her in the tightest hug holding on to the moment until I realized that we were right in front of the restaurant window, in plain sight of Cadence and Jake. Without letting go of Hayls, I pushed us back until we were out of sight.

"Felix" She laughs "do you want to tell me what you were just doing?" She broke our hug.

"Jake and Cadence are in there" I told her.

"Really?... so how is Jake?... and everyone else?" She hesitated. She still had that same light in her eyes when she said Jake's name she had when she was 18. That lets me know that she hasn't been able to move on.

"They are all doing fine. He is having a great with his comics and I'm great thanks for asking" I jokily huffed.

"Well I talk to you on the phone often. I know how you're doing" Hayley told me with her famous smirk.

I just noticed something. "Isn't someone missing?" I asked.

"Here she comes in 3… 2… 1…" She said simply.

"Mom how could you leave me in the car- UNCLE FELIX!" As soon as she saw me she started running at top speed. She jumped right in my arms as soon as she got to me. I look at the small child admiring her: She looked the most like Hayley, with her curly brunette locks with honey highlights, small nose, and smile, but her eyes, those belonged to Jake. Her eyes were just like his.

"Wow you've grown so much" I said swinging her around causing her to giggle.

"Well you know when you don't see a person in 3 years, those thing happen" She told me.

"Are you trying to make me feel guilty about me not coming to see you Jamie?" I asked as I set her down.

"Kinda" Jamie responded.

"Well it's working, a little" I told her.

Hayley was smiling at our antics. "So Hals what brings you to town?" I asked her.

"I don't know, I just thought it was time for us to take vacation and get away from Toronto. I haven't been home in 5" she looked down at the child holding on to me. "Almost 6 years"

"Uncle Felix, guess what?" Jamie asked, shaking my leg.

"What?" I asked matching her child-like excitement.

"Mom said that I might get to meet Jake Collins!" She was so excited by this that she was jumping up and down.

"Oh really" I couldn't but send a sly smirk Hayley's way. "Well how do you know he's here?"

"It said on his blog that he would. He was coming back to his home in Lakewood. That's here." She told me. "And it also said he is working on the next one: Honey Ricochet Meets Blue Vengence" It amazed me how advanced she was, she's still in Kindergarten but she can already read far beyond her level.

"Don't get too excited J.D., I said might" Hayley said firmly. Jamie's face fell quickly.

"Well if your mom doesn't let you get it, I'll personally make sure I get it for you myself" I told her. Her smile instantly returned to her face.

"Thank you Uncle Felix! That's right. I forgot that you told me that you, Jake and mommy were friends in high school" She said gazing up at me.

"Yep we were, before everything changed" Hayley just kept staring at Jamie.

"Everything changed for the better" Hayley said.

"I don't get, what are you talking about?" Jamie asked confused.

"I'll explain it later. So Hayls how long do you plan to be here?" I asked her.

"Oh not long just until Sunday, I felt it was only fitting to come back home and for us the visit my parents graves and stuff" She started to play with her hair. This was obviously a top they were still uncomfortable with.

"Hayley I'm still so sorry, I know it's still hard on both of you" I told her. The last time I visited Hayley it was Christmas. Hayley was in her junior year of college and Jamie was a bouncing 2 year old. Her aunt invited me up to join them and her parents were supposed to come too, but they never made it.

"I'm slowly dealing with it. One day at a time. You and Jamie got me through that time period" Hayley said. I couldn't help but feel the blush on my face.

"Ooo Uncle Felix is turning red" Jamie called out. Hayley just laughed.

"Where are you staying?" I asked.

"I don't know, most likely a hotel or something—"

"Oh on. I will hear nothing of that, you will stay with me at my house. Hold on give me a minute to get my stuff"

"Felix-" I didn't even give her a chance to protest like I knew she would.

I walked back in the restaurant and up to Cadence and Jake.

"Hey man, where have you been for so long?" Jake asked me.

"Oh I just… had a really long phone call" I said with a catch in my voice. "Oh I should get them something to eat" I whispered to myself.

"Them who?" Cadence asked.

"What are you talking about Cadence?" Jake asked.

"Felix whispered 'oh I should get them something them something to eat', I was just asking who was he talking about" Cadence explained.

"That's amazing. He's standing right next to me and I didn't catch that" Jake commented.

"Monster senses remember" She put her hands on her ears. "So Felix who is them?"

"Oh you know some people" Fortunately for me waitress passed by. "Excuse me can I get 3 orders. A chesseburger with fries, a salad with chicken, and a grilled chicken sandwich with fries, oh and 3 shakes, to go"

"I'll get that for you right away" The waitress said as she walked away.

The wait for the food was thankfully silent. Jake and Cadence said nothing as they just stared at me and I was not going to say anything.

"Here you are sir" She came back with the big bag and 3 shakes. "That will be $25.53" I promptly paid her and told her to keep the change.

"Well I'm off" I said as I grabbed my things and hurried out the door.

Cadence POV

Jake and I decided to ignore the awkwardness with Felix, well Jake did anyway.

"Cadence do you want to get out of here?" Jake asked me.

"Sure let's go" I was about to leave when I felt something under my foot. I leaned down to see what it was and it was a wallet. My curiosity got the best of me to see whose it was. I opened it to see Felix's license. "Well what do you know?" I said to no one in particular.

I needed to return that to Felix and I knew just how to do it.

I was standing outside, in the bushes of Felix's backyard of course, waiting.

"Come on where are you?" I asked myself aloud, looking down at my phone.

I sensed him finally coming up behind me "It's about time you showed up" I deadpanned, annoyed I had to wait so long.

"Dang, I just can't scare you can I" Kirby said.

"Not really, no" I responded.

"Can I ask what was so freaking important that I had to be in Felix's backyard instead of at home?" He asked.

"I needed your help with a task" I told him.

"What task?" He asked.

"Breaking and entering" I said simply.

"What the hell are you thinking? Breaking into Felix's place when he isn't home" He whisper screamed.

"I needed someone with me when I did this, and who better to call than my boyfriend" He shot me a look. "Ok I just wanted to return his wallet and leave, more or less, 60 seconds" . It's more than less though… I pulled out the wallet and showed it to still looked at me skeptically. "Come on you know you love me, come on please" I said and batted my eyes.

His face started to soften. "60 seconds?"

"More or less…" I told him.

"Alright fine do it, just be quick and inconspicuous" Kirby said. "Why do I always fall for the crazy ones?" He threw his hands in the air.

I ran to the back door and started on while Kirby… was being himself.

"Just doing some non-suspicious things out here in my friends back yard" Kirby said as loud as he could. I finally got the door open.

"Kirby get your butt in here!" I told him.

He crossed the threshold into the door and promptly turned to peak out of it once more. "Would you please?" I grabbed him by the head and pulled him completely in. He closed and locked the door behind us.

"Ok just put the wallet in the living room somewhere and let's get out of here" Kirby demanded.

"Hold on, I wanna do something first" I told him

"Ohh no, no, no, no, no you said 60 seconds" He said.

"Ok. 1. I still have 20 seconds 2. I did say more or less" I told him. Kirby just rolled his eyes. "I thought Felix was acting strange earlier and I could just feel he was hiding something and want to find out what" I explained to Kirby.

"Alright, what do you want me to do?" He simply asked.

"What no question? You know what? Nevermind that just look around for something that comes off as suspicious" I told him.

"Ok. Don't know what that would be. Oh don't forget to put the wallet somewhere"

"I won't" I dropped it on the table in the living room when something sticking out of a book caught my eye. I pulled it out and saw it was a picture of him holding a small child that look to be about 2 or 3 and… oh my god!..

"Hayley?" I asked aloud.

"Where?" Kirby asked.

"In this picture" I turned the picture to show Kirby.

"I thought she left and no one knew where or why. Who is the kid?" Kirby asked me.

"I don't know and I think one us knew more than he was saying" Kirby was staring at the picture and I was left thinking. We heard the locks turning.

We were running around like chickens before we both made the decision to jump behind the couch.

Hayley walked in first and Felix walked with a child in his arms. I couldn't tell if it was the one from the picture or not. "Thanks Felix, Jamie really enjoyed that. If she weren't asleep she would be thanking you a million times right now" Hayley told him. It was a total shock to see the Hayley Steele again.

"No problem. Anything for Jamie and you, for that matter." Hayley smiled at his words.

"I think I should put her in her bed now" Hayley said.

"I can carry her upstairs" Felix said.

"Ok come on" Hayley sound bounding up the stairs.

Yes! "Kirby come on!" I whisper yelled. I wanted to get out of there before anyone could get a chance to come back down.

He followed me out the door. I locked the door and closed it gently behind us. I could tell he was still in shock and so was I.

"What did we just see?" Kirby asked.

I really hope you like this. A little Kirbence action going on there.
