Chapter 3-

A few hours later, Jon and I are in some RV that Jon's friend let him have. This RV is basically one room if you don't include the tiny bathroom that is attached. It only has one bed, a couch, and a table. I don't even know if it could be considered am RV, but whatever. I packed 2 bags, Jon packed one bag for himself, and then one bag for Kia. Kia is in the back on the couch, sleeping. It's only 6 in the morning. I find it so weird just leaving my house and fleeing out of the state with strangers, but yet for some reason this just feels so right. Jon's the one driving right now. We are taking turns on who drives. I honestly don't know what to expect during this trip or whatever you want to call it. Will we get hurt? Will we get in trouble? Will we possibly die? Will the cops come looking for us? I just wish I knew what is going to happen. But for now, I will just have to take it one day at a time. It's basically the only thing I can do since I was the one who agreed to even do this.

7am...

"Daddy, where are we?" Kia asks as she wakes up and rubs her eyes.

"We are in the middle of Ohio. We're all going on a roadtrip. Even Erika is coming with, right, Erika?" Jon says as he concentrates on the road ahead.

I nod my head. "Yes, we are going on a roadtrip. We are going to have a blast." I say as I smile at the little girl.

Kia smiles at me. "Yay!" She says as she claps her hands.

Jon smiles as he continues driving. Kia eventually falls back asleep after a few minutes. I turn my head to Jon.

"What's the plan once we reach Iowa?" I ask.

"Where going to Davenport, Iowa. My friend Sami Callihan lives there. We are going to stay with him for awhile. He is going to help me get into NXT. It's a wrestling organization. I used to be a wrestler. I had to stop once I got custody of Kia. Sami is going to help get my life back together. I am going to need you to help me with finding an affordable home for Kia and I to live in and then I will need you to try and enroll Kia into preschool for me, if you could." Jon says.

I nod. "Sounds good." I say.

"Great. Ya know, I am really thankful for you. You saved my daughter and I, then let us stay with you for a night, and are now just pausing your life to come with us to Iowa and get back on our feet. You are amazing. I know that I never properly thanked you, so thank you. For everything. And for everything you will be doing the next few days or weeks for Kia and I. You are like the angel on my shoulder that just randomly showed up. I owe you big time." Jon says.

I giggle. "You're welcome, but you don't owe me anything. I wanted to help you and Kia. And I didn't really pause my life either. I just moved to Cincinnati 3 weeks ago. I am from Minneapolis, Minnesota. Both my parents died in a car crash two years ago. I am an only child. I decided to move here because Minneapolis isn't the best place to be when you're still somewhat grieving from a loss. I wasn't really that close with my parents, but it still hurts." I say. "I don't even have a job yet. I really don't know what to do with my life."

Jon nods. "I'm sorry for your loss." Jon says. "My dad is in jail and my mom is dead. My mom was a crazy alcoholic. She would use her body to get money. She brought home a new guy every night and they would have sex. She got paid, that's why she would do it. Eventually, it just got so bad that she died. It sucked, but that's what she gets for ruining her life like that. Yet here I was, drinking and fucking random people. I feel so stupid." Jon sighs.

"But if you didn't just fuck around, you wouldn't have Kia. So that's a positive. " I say.

"True, you have a point there." Jon says. "Anyways, you hungry? There's a Mcdonald's up ahead."

I nod my head as Jon drives us all to Mcdonald's. We get drive threw. I got chicken nuggets, Jon got a Big Mac, and then we got Kia a happy meal for when she wakes up. Jon pays at the next window and then we head back on the road…

4 and a half hours later, we arrive in Chicago, Illinois. So its like noon right now. I have been driving for the past 4 hours while Jon took a nap. Kia has been awake for two hours now. She's been very quiet. She ate her happy meal and has been playing with the little doll that came with the meal. Kia is so adorable.

"Erika?" Kia asks.

"Yes, sweety?" I ask as I continue driving.

"Do you have any kids?" She asks.

I giggle. "No, hun, I don't. Why do you ask?" I say as I look threw the mirror to see her.

"Because I want someone who can play with me." Kia says.

"Awh, maybe one day your dad will marry someone and have a baby with them. Then you will have someone to play with." I say.

Kia smiles. "Will that person be you?" She asks.

I laugh. "I highly doubt it. Your dad and I are just friends." I say, trying to explain to the little girl that I don't forsee a future with Jon.

"Oh. Okay." Kia says.

I giggle as I continue driving, wondering what the future could possibly hold…

Note: So we got more of a look at Erika's past.

Jon finally thanked Erika!
