Apartment Searching
The next day came quick for everyone. Jess kept on throwing up. Don thought it would be a good idea for him to stay with his soon to be wife. But she insisted that he take his sister to apartment search.
"Are you sure you are going to be okay?" Don asked.
"Well, Stella is coming over, since Mac is working. Keep her distracted."
"Want me to stay until she comes?"
"She should be here within 5 minutes."
"Okay, I'm just worried about you."
"I'll be fine Don, just being pregnant sucks. I got 8 months to go with this."
"I'm surprised you got mourning sickness so soon. I never got that until like three months," Sam inputs.
"I wish I didn't have this at all, I would prefer the weird cravings. Peanut butter with sardines doesn't sound appetizing at all for the moment."
"I never had those weird cravings. You'll be okay though Jess. As soon as the baby comes out, you'll forget all about how painful those nine months were."
"I love your sister Don. She's amazing."
"I help to please," Sam smirked. "So Donald, you ready to go?"
"Yeah, I love you Jess," he kissed her cheek.
"Love both of you guys."
As soon as they left, it got really quiet. Before Jess got completely lonely there was a knock on the door.
Jess smiles, and went to go answer it, "Stella!" She pulls her in for a hug. "I missed you yesterday."
"I missed you too Jess."
"I um... saw Claire yesterday. She most definately does not compare to you."
"Thanks. So you're all alone."
"I pretty much was until you came. So how are you doing being Mac's fiance?"
"Good, just wish we could spend more time together."
"Ain't that the truth. But Don's being a good fiance."
"The better husband and dad he'll be."
"You should see him with Sam. Wish I was that close with my brothers."
"Mac told me she likes your brother Jake."
"Yeah."
"And Don's okay with that?" Stella asked.
"He just wants to see her happy. Her life hadn't really been a good one."
"I bet," Stella nods.

"Don, I'm hungry," Sam mentions two hours into apartment hunting.
"So, where do you want to go eat?"
"I know a place," Sam smirks.
"If it's where I think it is, we're not going. That's too far out of your apartment range."
"Fine. Is McDonald's too far for you big baby?"
"No that's absolutely fine," Don grins.
"You suck you know that."
He drove them to McDonald's and they sat inside.
"So any of those places catch your interest?"
"No, the prices suck and so does the size."
"You barely have any stuff to put in the apartment."
"I don't care Donald. I want a nice comfortable looking apartment."
"You want to go to the apartment Mac used to have?"
"I don't know," Sam shrugs. "Did you like hanging out there?"
"It was nice. Two beds, one bathroom, a good sized kitchen."
"We can check it out after lunch."
"It's only a few blocks away from my apartment."
Once they finished their lunch Don drove them to Mac's old apartment which was still for sale.
"This place is AMAZING!" Sam shouted once she headed into one of the bedrooms.
The selling assistant smiled. "She must like it. You both will find this apartment wonderful."
"Actually I'm just her brother," Don nods.
"Oh, my mistake sir."
"It's okay. How much is it?"
"3,000."
"Right up or what?"
"I'll need to collect the first and last payment within a week after you are moved in. She'll have to pay 200 each month."
"Okay."
"One of the less expensive apartments you'll find in the Brooklyn area."
Sam came out after looking. "Don, I want this apartment. It even has a balcony."
"I'll help you pay it off."
"Want to fill out the paperwork?"
"Yes please," Sam smiles.
"I'll be right back," the assistant nods and left the apartment.
"Thanks Don. I love you so much for helping me," Sam smiles, pulling her brother into a hug.
"You'll have to pay 6000 dollars for first and last payments. And every month you need 200 to pay."
"I can handle it."
"Are you sure, because I will help you out as much as I can."
"Thanks. Just because I want to be out on my own again doesn't mean I won't take your help Donald."
"Good, cuz to me your still my little sister."
"Your welcome," Sam grins, kissing Don's cheek.
"Alright as soon as the papers are signed I'll give you a key."
"Thanks," Sam smiled, taking the papers and signing off.
As soon as the papers were signed, the woman handed Sam a key, and a spare.
"You have one week to give me the first and last payment of a total of 6,000 dollars."
"Sure, thank you ma'am."
"No, thank you," she nods and left the apartment.
"Don. I'm so excited. I'm not going to let you down this time."
"I'm just glad you learn from your mistakes. Let's head home," Don smiles, and they headed back to his and Jess' apartment.
Sorry if the task of getting an apartment was supposed to be longer than that. But it's my story and I gave u some sort of a warning... anyways LEAVE A REVIEW :)
