Chapter 11

"Dad" Jenny said hugging the man at the door. Jethro took a big gulp.

"You said you couldn't come" Jenny said to the man with a smile plastered on her face.

"I said that so I could surprise you" The man said. Jethro just kind of stood uncertain what to do.

Jenny let go of the man then turned to her boyfriend who was staring at her slightly confused and worried. "Jethro this is my dad, dad this is Jethro".

"Nice to meet you sir" Jethro said offering his hand to the older man.

"Please call me Jasper" Jasper said taking Jethro's hand and shaking it.

"Well I had better get home, night Jen and happy birthday" Jethro said turning to leave.

"I'll let you two have a minuet" Jasper said walking inside sensing he had interrupted them.

"Where were we" Jenny said putting her arms around Jethro's neck.

"Mmmh I think we were about here" Jethro said leaning in to his her. Jenny let out a little giggle before his lips covered hers. They parted when the need for air was to strong.

"Night Jen" Jethro said as they stepped away from each other.

"Thank you for the pendent and for one of the best birthdays ever" Jenny said kissing him on the cheek. Then she watched as he got in his truck a drove off.

Jenny turned and headed in side. Jenny walked into her father's study were he was sitting in the arm chair in front of the crackling fire.

Jenny walked over to her father and hugged him. "So did you have a good birthday" Jasper asked looking up at his daughter.

"Yeah, my friends threw me a surprise party and bought me a mound of presents" Jenny said with a smile.

"That's a very nice necklace, was it a birthday present" Jasper said after he noticed the piece of jewellery around his daughter neck.

"Yeah it was a present from Jethro" Jenny said with a smile then fingered the necklace.

"It looks expensive does he come from money" jasper's curiosity got the better of him.

"Um no his dad owns the shop around the corner and he just moved her from Pennsylvania" Jenny said sitting down on the sofa near the chair her father was sitting in. Jasper just nodded to his daughter.

"You know, every time I see you, you look more and more like your mother" Jasper said taking a sip of bourbon. Jenny smiled and held back the tears that came whenever she thought about her mother.

"That reminds me, I got you a birthday present, but it's a surprise so you have to cover your eyes and promise not to peek" Jasper said with a grin. Jenny giggled with excitement then Jumped up off the sofa and covered a hand over her eyes.

Jasper took her free hand in his and guided her into the kitchen were Naomi was waiting with her present.

Jenny felt something lick the end of her nose and that's when she pulled her hand away and was met by warm brown eyes.

The brown eyes belonged to the West highland terrier puppy in Naomi's arms. Naomi put the puppy in Jenny's arms and Jenny's heart melted.

"Aww dad she's so cute, thank you so much"

"What are you going to call her?" Naomi asked, very happy to see Jenny very happy.

"I think I'll call her Izzy"

"That sounds perfect" Jasper said putting an arm around Jenny.

After hours of playing with her new puppy both Jenny Izzy were fast asleep on the sofa in front of the fire.

Jasper woke his daughter up by gently shaking her shoulder. Jenny opened her green eyes and smiled at her father. "You should sleep in your bed" Jasper whispered.

Jenny sat up then scooped up the ball of fluff next to her and made her way to her bedroom.

Jasper watched as Jenny and Izzy walked up the stairs. Jenny was growing up to fast.
