"Uhh..Mom?" I asked cautiously when I woke up the next morning and went downstairs.
"What?" she replied.
"Did you happen to know..that Frankie and the rest of the guys are coming HERE next week?" I asked.
She paused for a second. "Yes I did..and I didn't tell you because I figured you would want to go see Matt,"
"Well, I really don't want to..but if I did I think I should be able to..he IS Cameron's father."
"I know, but you're not exactly an adult yet..but I think that if you really want to go see him..I'll let you. We can't keep this a secret from him forever,"
"I know..he'll find out sooner or later. And I think it would be best if he found out from me."
"I know it would be best..but Stacy, just promise me one thing,"
"What?"
"Don't get so caught up with him, please. He's going to have to leave again and you're not moving to New York to be with him,"
"I know..how long is he staying for?"
"Well..Frankie and Jesse were going to come over without the other guys knowing..and we didn't know how often they'd be able to do that..so we gave them a week.."
"A week!?"
"Yeah.."
"Well..okay, I guess I could work with that,"
The next week passed quickly. I was anxious to talk to Matt..but also scared about how he would react. Today was Friday, the day the boys came to visit us. They flew in yesterday, and Saturday would be the day of their concert and meet and greet.
I got home from school and waited nervously for Jesse and Frankie to arrive. Finally a car pulled in the drive and the two boys got out.
I ran to give Frankie a huge hug, considering I hadn't seen him in about a year. Laura ran out to give Jesse a big hug and *ew* kiss..
"Where's the baby!?" Frankie asked. He had never actually seen Cameron in person..and neither had Jesse.
"He's inside.." I said, and headed for the house. We went up to Cameron's room, and he was just waking up. I picked him up and handed him to Frankie.
"Uhhhh ummm you're letting me hold him? You know I'm not good with babies..and this is a baby baby," he said.
"How old is he again?" Jesse asked.
"4 months," I replied.
"Wow..that's really young," Jesse said.
"Yeah.." I sighed.
"Here, Jess, you hold him," Frankie said, handing Cameron over to Jesse.
"What? I'm not good with babies either," Jesse said, reluctantly taking him.
"Better than me," Frankie argued.
We played Pass the Baby for a while, and finally I took him and we went downstairs to talk.
"What?" she replied.
