So much to talk about with this chapter but I'll try to keep it short.
Erica might be pissed off about the possible pregnancy given that she said not to do anything under her roof but whatever happens AJ and Punk will get through it together.
Btw thanks for giving me the best review award it made me smile when I saw it (and I know how it sounds but I'm not being sarcastic) :D

Congrats and please keep on reviewing!

Chapter 38-Diner Fight

Two hours later after Carlos' court hearing, Erica, AJ, and Punk were patiently waiting outside the jail for Carlos to be released. While Erica and AJ were talking excitedly about having Carlos back at home, Punk was still on guard about the whole thing and would be keeping a close eye on the whole situation. It was his house after all seeing as he was helping provide for their small mixed family and he protected them as well.

Sitting in the car playing with his phone, Punk was pulled from his thoughts when he heard AJ scream, "Daddy," and watched as his girlfriend took off towards her father who was coming out of the jail as a somewhat free man.

"Hey baby girl, how are you doing? You seemed very stressed earlier and I'm sorry about that," he said hugged his daughter tightly. Unfortunately they hadn't had too many of these embraces and Carlos wasn't going to take any of AJ's hugs for granted.

"I'm doing good now that you're here and free dad. I was just worried that I wasn't going to see you for a long time," AJ said into his chest as tears fell down her face. She didn't want to let go of him.

Meanwhile Erica and Punk walked up beside them and smiled at what they saw and it made Punk knew in his heart that he did the right thing. As AJ and Carlos finally pulled away, he looked over at Erica and made his way over to her. "Can I get a hug sweetheart?" Carlos asked his wife.

Erica smiled up at her husband and said, "I can do you one better." She then pulled his head down for a kiss. She really did love her husband and there was no way that she was going to leave him.

"Alright you two break it up, don't make me get the hose," Punk playfully shouted at them as he and AJ laughed. Now they knew how Erica felt when she caught them making out. It was very uncomfortable.

"Haha very funny guys, besides I don't use the hose on you two. Trust me, I have been tempted to many times," Erica teased them back. Everyone loved how they could play with each other and no one got their feelings hurt.

Punk and AJ rolled their eyes at Erica's comment. "Okay mom whatever you say. Now can we please go get some real food? I'm starving!" AJ asked as her and Punk walked towards the car.

Erica nodded and the two adults followed the young teens to the car. On their way to the diner, Punk and Carlos only gave each other a head nod and that was it. Carlos was too nervous to say anything to young man and Punk could care less what Carlos had to say.

When they got to the diner, the group went to a large booth in the back. "So dad, what do you want to eat?" AJ asked him as they looked over the menus.

"I don't know about you guys, but I think I want a big gat juicy steak," Carlos laughed. After a month of eating watery bland food, he was craving something with a lot of flavor.

"Since this is a celebratory dinner, everyone can have steak," Erica laughed. "I don't care how much it costs, we all deserve it," so with that being said, everyone got a steak.

After ordering their food, Erica and AJ went to the bathroom leaving Punk and Carlos alone. They sat there in silence for a while with Carlos staring out the window and Punk playing on his phone. "So umm…I just wanted to say thank you for all you did for me," Carlos said finally speaking up.

Punk took his eyes off of his phone for a second to say, "I didn't do it for you, I did it for April. Her happiness and well-being mean the world to me. I could care less about you right now."

"I understand that Phil and that's why I want to know where you stand on my whole living situation. Do you want me to live with you or back at my old house?" Carlos asked him. Not knowing where his marriage stood, Carlos had convinced Erica to keep their old house in case he needed to live away from his family.

"You want to know how I feel about it Carlos, well if I had things my way you would never step foot into my house until I said that you could. However seeing as AJ and Erica would be sad about, I guess I don't have a choice," Punk huffed. He hated not being in control.

Listening to Punk made Carlos feel bad for him, because he knew that the home that Punk had made with Erica and AJ was all he had left and he didn't want to take that away from him. "Look Phil, I understand how you're feeling about this whole thing. Remember I was in the same exact position as you are. Despite me being married to Erica, it isn't my house like you said. That's why I am going to live by your rules and rules only. Just tell me what I have to do and I'll do it," he said trying to compromise.

Punk thought about it and said, "Fine then if you want rules, then here's some rules. First you're going to go to those classes and meetings that the court ordered you to go to. I think I can really help you. Second there will be no drinking or other illegal activity in the house period. If I even smell it on you, I will call the police. If I hear you raise your voice to Erica or April in a threatening manner, I'll call the police. If I see any marks or bruising on the girls, I will kill you then call the police. You better be on your best behavior Carlos or things can get bad for your real quick."

"I got it and I won't you down Phil. I'll try my absolute hardest to prove to you that I am a changed man. I want to be the best husband and father to my family as I can be," Carlos stuck his hand out for Punk to shake and eventually Punk shook his hand.

"Hey what's going on here?" AJ asked as she and Erica returned to the table. Seeing Punk and Carlos shaking hands made AJ feel like things were going to be okay for once.

Punk moved over so AJ could sit down, "Oh your dad and I are just going over a couple of things. It's nothing to be…"

AJ looked at Punk in confusion, "What's going on Punky, why did you stop talking?"

"Look over there by the door," Erica told her daughter. When AJ looked, she saw Punk's parents and sister had just walked in the door. "Do you want to get our food to go Phil?" Erica asked him.

"No it's okay, but I think I'm going to go to the bathroom. I'll be right back," he said getting up and walked towards the bathroom. On his way there he prayed that his family didn't see him.

Unfortunately Cassie looked up at the right time to see him. "Phil!" she said excitedly and ran up to him giving him a big hug.

Jack saw what was going on and didn't like it, "Cassie get away from him. We don't know him anymore."

"C'mon dad, don't be like that. Let me just talk to Cassie and I'll leave you alone," Punk said trying to calm down the situation. This was no place to start fighting.

"No I will not leave you alone. I told you that the longer you are with that loser and her family, we will not be yours. Now let's go Cassie," Jack shouted not caring who was watching.

Carlos had heard what Jack had said about his family and it got him upset, "Hey don't you dare talk about my family like that asshole!" He then made his way over to Jack with AJ and Erica in pursuit.

Jack looked at Carlos in disgust, "Why are you here? Aren't you supposed to be in prison or something?" He really hated this man.

"Not anymore, your son helped me get out earlier. If I were you, I would be damn proud that he was my son. Phil is a good kid," Carlos said coming to Punk's defense.

"If he got you out of prison Carlos, then he must be stupider as I thought," Jack spat at Punk who was looking down in embarrassment and shame.

AJ was starting to get real pissed off, "Hey don't you dare talk about Phil like that. Your son is an amazing person and is only going to get better. I know you hate me and see me as the reason why your family is falling apart, but that's not mine or Phil's fault, it's yours. Maybe if you weren't so stubborn and stop acting like a jackass, your son would be proud of you!"

Jack walked up to AJ and got into her face, "How dare you speak to me like that little girl. I am within my right to…" He was cut off when he felt someone punch him in the face and fell to the ground.

"Don't you dare threaten my girlfriend ever again. If you want to take your anger out on someone, then take it out on me, not April. She has been through too much and doesn't need you interfering in her life. I am so sick and tired of having to deal with being so hard on me all the time dad. You're supposed to be my parent and support me in everything that I do, not bash me about it. I hate you so much right now dad that it isn't even funny. During my entire life you were never there for me except when it came to football and now look what that has done. You have lost the only son that you're ever going to have, you'll never see April and I get married, and you'll never see your grandchildren which might be soon," Punk said angrily.

"What do you mean by soon Phil? Oh my god April isn't pregnant is she?" Claire asked in panic.

Punk and AJ looked at each other and knew that it was time to tell the truth. "Well we don't exactly know. I mean we did take a pregnancy test and it came out as negative. I tried to make a doctor's appointment to be sure, but they need a parent to go with me. I'm so sorry mom, I'm so sorry," AJ cried and Punk took her into his arms.

Everyone was shocked by what they heard. This was the last thing that they thought would happen. Only Erica and Carlos knew what the two teens were going through and knew that they needed their family to get through this. Walking up to them, Erica and Jack wrapped their arms around the two teens and told them that everything was going to be okay and that they were going to get through this no matter what happens.

God, I hate Jack. He is such an ass. Why can't he just be happy for his son and be there for him. Also why is Claire even still with him? Anyways, I hope everything goes okay when AJ finally goes to the doctor, but then again anything can happen. Please let me know what you guys think of the chapter!
