Chapter 8
"Listen Nikki, I don't know what you want but I can't handle this right now."
"Jake let me explain."
"Explain what, the fact that you left a baby on my doorstep without so much as a call. You haven't called one time in the past 8 months to see how she is doing. How did you even know that I kept her?"
"Jake I just couldn't deal with it. My parents and everyone talking about me, it was just too much."
"Well Nikki let's get one thing straight. This is too much for me to deal with. And I refuse to deal with you. Jenny is my daughter she doesn't need you and I don't need you."
Jake hung the phone up and launched it at the wall watching it bounce off the wall. Next thing you know Jenny is screaming. "Great. I am never going to get any sleep."
Jake finally laid Jenny down in bed with him hoping that she would fall asleep so he could get some rest before dealing with the double date.
The next day seemed to fly by. Jake had enough time to get some homework done and get Jenny ready to go stay with his aunt for the night since his parents were out of town for the weekend. After dropping Jenny off he ran in to take a shower and found that he had missed 5 calls. Looking at the caller id he saw they were all from Haley. "Probably trying to worm her way out of this." Jake hopped in the shower and headed to pick Haley up alittle early to help calm her nerves.
Haley opened the door with rollers in her hair and her robe on. "I left you a message, I can't do this Jake. I can't be civil to them, I just can't. Please don't make me do this." Jake gently pushed Haley up the stairs and opened her door. "Here you finish your makeup we will find something in here to make Lucas wonder what he ever saw in Peyton. Now no whining get ready or else I will be forced to do your hair, and you have seen how Jenny's turned out." Haley just sighed knowing that Jake wasn't going to let her out this easy.
