I'M HAVING SO MUCH FUN! I LOVE THE POSITIVE FEEDBACK ABOUT JAKE BEING A SINGLE FATHER. AND A CERTAIN FRIEND OF MINE HAS BEEN GIVING SOME GREAT IDEAS. (YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE!) BUT I'M GONNA THANK YA ANY WAY! HERE' GOS' THANK U TLoZfantic44! BE SURE TO GIVE HER A SHOT! SHE'S AWESOME! NOW THAT I HAVE LIFTED MY HEART BY DOING WHAT I WANTED TO DO FROM THE BEGINNING, IT'S TIME FOR A DAY ON THE BEACH!
J POV
I slammed my head on my desk out of sheer boredom. It was only an hour before I picked up Bella for the beach. "Dude, you're going to bust your desk!" Seth smirked. I glared at him. "What ever." Paul walked in with his phone glued to his ears. "I don't know..."that's not what I said"…" what ever….alright, I'll see you in a couple days" he huffed and hung up his phone. I smirked. "Tiffany after you again?" he scowled. "Yep." Tiffany was Paul's younger sister; they didn't talk much ever since Paul moved to California. But she always managed to convince him to let her visit a few weeks every four months. I chuckled and looked at the clock to see I had thirty minutes left.
"Jeez man, you keep looking at the clock like it's gonna explode!" I rolled my eyes. "I'm just eager to get out of here!" Seth and Paul both smirked. "Are you sure it's that, or does it have to do with a certain Bella?" I sighed.
"Fine; it has to do with Bella! Now stop asking questions." They laughed.
"Is Abby okay with this?"
I rolled my eyes again. "She's coming with us you dummies; like I would leave her that crazy day care teacher all day!" they laughed again.
"Alright. Well, I'm gonna go to my office and finish some stuff. I'll see you guys later." Seth waved his goodbyes. Paul left too, saying her needed to order some stuff for tiffany. I jumped out of my chair as soon as the hand was on the two. I hastily got into my mustang heading for Abby's day care.
When I got there, there was a boy talking to her. From the way her lip was quivering. I walked over to the play ground and I heard the boy talking. "Stop crying! You know it's true. My dad says your dad isn't around because he doesn't want to be!" tears were now going down Abby's face, making my heart break. I felt my anger boil. Stupid bratty kid! "He…he does love me! You're a liar!" she was full out bawling now. "No he doesn't! I bet will have to call him to remind him he even has a kid!" he had a sneer on his face.
I decided I had enough and did the smartest thing ever. I walked up behind Abby; the kid was looking down. So he didn't notice me. I grabbed Abby's little waist and tickled her. "Daddy!" she squealed. "Hey baby girl! Ready to see Bella again?" she jumped in my arms. I looked at the kid. "Who's this kid?" He instantly paled. "He hasn't been hurting you has he?" she frowned at him. I shrugged. "C'mon baby, if we want to get Bella, we better go." I saw her glare at the boy as I walked off. I chuckled. Yep…she's definitely my daughter! I buckled her in her car seat and headed for the bar.
Soon enough we made it to the bar. The moment I unbuckled Abby, she was running into the bar squealing. I swore under my breath. I didn't really trust bars so I rushed after her.
B POV
Ughhh! I listened to another debate about sports. At some point I just zoned and absently washed glasses, thinking about later today. Hmmm…an entire afternoon on the beach…I need that. I heard a little shriek. At first I thought it was Alice. But I turned around to see Abby running towards me. I opened my arms and she dove in. "Mommy!" she squealed. I stiffened, but let it pass. I told her I would whatever she needed…and I meant it.
A lot of regulars looked shocked, some guys looked angry and Howard looked amused. Jake walked in and smiled when he saw Abby wrapped around me. He chuckled. "She was so excited that as soon as I unbuckled her she took off!" I giggled as Abby buried her face in my neck. "Ready?" I nodded and said my good bye to Alice. She gave that looked that says 'be careful'.
Abby was squirming in his arms. I was giggling the entire time. The ride to the beach was silent except for Abby's humming to the radio. "So how was work?" Jake asked. I was surprised that he asked. "Umm…I guess the same as always. People yelling at each other over sports!" I shrugged. He chuckled.
I started listening to Abby quietly singing to one of my favorite songs.
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine The other night dear, as I lay sleepin'
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away
I dreamed, I held you by my side
When I awoke dear, I was mistaken
And I hung my head and I cry
I started singing along with Abby. Jacob looked very surprised, but joined us as well.
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine You told me once dear, you really loved me
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away
And no one else could come between
But now you've left me and you love another
And you have shattered all my dreams
Jacob entwined our fingers and smiled as he continued singing.
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine I'll always love you and make you happy You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away
If you will only say the same
But if you leave me to love another
But you'll regret it all some day
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away
Please don't take my sunshine away…
We made it to the beach just as we finished the song. I carried the swim wear and towels, while Jacob struggled to keep a hold on a very hyper Abby. I smiled. Jacob spread out a blanket on the sand for us to sit. I started putting on sunscreen, while Jacob did the same to him and Abby. "Mommy, come swim with me!" I smiled and took her hand. I looked back at Jacob. He seemed okay with her jumping into the whole mother thing. He smiled at me with something different in his eyes.
The water felt refreshing and cool. Abby squealed as a wave came and lapped at her stomach. I laughed as she doggy paddled in circles around me. I picked her up and gently tossed her into the water. She laughed. I swam around with her. We played Marco-polo for two hours. I could feel Jacobs's eyes on me the entire time. Soon enough I heard the familiar rumble of her stomach. I laughed, picking her up and heading towards Jake to get Abby some food. Jacob gave us both a turkey sandwich.
I watched in utter shock as Abby inhaled her sandwich and asked for another one. Jacob laughed. "She has my appetite. If I wanted to I could eat four whole large pizzas on my own!" I laughed and watched Abby eat a bag of chips. I shook my head. I sat next to Jacob on the blanket as Abby made a sand castle. "She adores you ya know." He said. I looked at him confused. He chuckled.
"Ever since the first day you showed up, she has had a smile on her face that I've never seen before." He admitted sheepishly.
I smiled. "She's adorable! Believe me I adore her as well." He smiled shyly
He gave me a loving kiss that I gladly responded to. It was strange how he knew the right moment to kiss me or comfort me. And I have only known him a few weeks.
"Mommy, Daddy let's go back in the water!" I laughed when Jacob almost jumped out of his skin. "Okay baby we'll be there in a second." Jacob and I got up and headed to Abby, who was already enjoying the water. We splashed around more, Abby learned to kick her legs.
Jacob got a call from someone at the office. He said he would be back in a few minutes. Abby and I decided to rest and sat at the edge of the water, watching the waves lapped back and forth over the sand. It was very peaceful…until I heard a very annoying voice.
"Hey."
A POV
We were having so much fun. Me, Mommy and daddy, all together at the beach. When we ate the food daddy had packed earlier and now mommy and I were sitting looking at the waves. I wonder how waves even get to be waves…then I saw a weird guy coming over to us.
"Hey." I cocked my head to the side. Did he know mommy? She sighed.
"Can I help you?' she asked. I could tell she was annoyed; daddy got the same way he talked to Mr. Newton bar. (Hehe. I was hungry and I remembered fig Newton bars. Ya I know its weird!) I crawled onto mommies lap, giving Mr. Weirdo a mean look.
"Who's the cutie?" he looked at me and I felt funny…almost…like someone put ice on my back. I gave him a meaner look and snuggled into mommies lap even more. She squeezed me.
"I don't really think you care." She said angry. His eyes got dark, WAIT, WHAT? How do his eyes do that? I shook in fear. He wasn't like Uncle Paul; Uncle Paul talked to ladies all the time…but daddy said he did it because he was just like that. This man…was not normal. His eyes were a funny kind of blue and he had black hair. He seemed almost as big as daddy.
"Well I was just wondering, 'because I was just thinking that you and I could get to know each other…and I figured I start with the little girl that's holding onto you for dear life."
I gripped mommy tighter and growled at Mr. Weirdo. Then…he did the dumbest thing, he tried to pick me up. I bit his finger. "Ouch…she got quite a pair of teeth." I growled at him again. He smirked.
"I guess it's time for us to go. She tends to get cranky when she's tired." Mommy locked her arm around my waist and walked away from Mr. Weirdo. She put down while she pretended to pick up our stuff. But then Mr. Weirdo did another stupid thing…he slapped MY mommies bottom! THAT was the last straw. When she gasped, I stomped on his foot…and I had my favorite sneakers on. He grunted and bent to hold his foot. I hit him in the head with my bucket and he fell to the ground.
"DON'T TOUCH MY MOMMY!" I screamed. I never screamed. I saw daddy running towards us. He grabbed my and mommies hands, looking very, very mad.
"What exactly is going on?" daddies voice was very low, that only happened when he was super angry. "This dummy slapped mommies butt!" I pointed to Mr. Weirdo, who was holding his head. I smirked. Daddy growled just like I did. "I think it's time we headed home." Daddy picked me up and mommy got our stuff. We headed to the car. Daddy put down to unlock the door…but Mr. Weirdo still hadn't learned.
"Just so you know…I think your kids crazy!" I saw red. I ran towards him and kicked him the part that daddy says not to. (Bet'cha knows which part! Ha-ha!) His eyes widened and he fell to his knees. I gave him a raspberry. (Spit at him.) And walked back to daddy who was laughing very hard and mommy was blushing.
Daddy kissed my fore-head. "That's my girl." daddy whispered. We drove home and mommy helped out of my swimsuit. We ordered pizza and snuggled onto the couch to watch a movie; cloudy with a chance of meatballs. I giggled when the monkey said gummy bears. I turned back to mommy& daddy…and they were KISSING! I covered my eyes. "Cooties!" I squealed. I heard them both laugh. I snuggled in between them but felt sleep take me.
J POV
I smiled down at the sleeping Abby. She was very brave today, the way she defended Bella. She is so selfless and innocent. I felt Bella sigh. "She's too sweet for her own good." She whispered. I chuckled.
"Yeah…but sometimes I think that helps her a lot. Come on, let's take her upstairs." I picked Abby up and headed to her room, with Bella behind me. We tucked her in and headed back downstairs. I turned the channel to some weird comedy movie. Bella relaxed into my side. I kissed the top of her head. We fell asleep on the couch. But a part of me was saying that tomorrow, something strange would happen
YEAH, YEAH I KNOW! I HAVEN'T UPDATED! ANYWAY I HOPE YOU LIKE OUR LITTLE ABBY BEING BAD FOR A BIT. AND NO I'M NOT TELLING ANYONE WHY JAKES FEELING STRANGE…YOU'LL JUST HAVE TO WAIT! ;)
