Let Me Fall

3 years later, 2013

Emma, Manny and Ellie waited by the mini van, well more like mini school bus, for their kids to come out of school. Katy, Chris, and Julia were sitting in the car seats watching a movie in the van. They were talking about random things when they some someone walk up to them.

"Hey. I'm looking for my son."

Emma stared at him, "J.T.?"

The guy nodded.

Ellie and Manny stepped back, not sure of what Emma was going to do.

Emma stepped closer to J.T., "He's not your son."

J.T. laughed arrogantly, "Well, I'm pretty sure he is. Why do you care?"

Emma rolled her eyes, "Because he's my son. Mine and Jay's. He has been since his mother died."

J.T. stepped back, "Alex died?"

"She was your wife and you didn't even know she died?" Emma screamed at him.

"No one told me Emma."

Ellie gave J.T. a dirty look, "Like you would have actually cared."

"Of course I would have cared. I loved her."

Manny got in his face, "That's why you left?"

J.T. stepped away from Manny and towards Emma, "I didn't leave. I...We both agreed it would be best."

Emma was getting annoyed, "No. You went to visit someone in the states and never came back."

"FINE! I left. I didn't know what happened to Alex. I didn't know what happened to either of them. I just knew she was having a boy. I figured she would raise him here, with you guys. So, I decided to come and see if she was here, picking him up."

Emma slapped him, "You don't even know his name!"

J.T. quickly put his hand on the cheek where Emma slapped him, "How could I? No one told me anything."

"You didn't deserve to know anything! If you cared, you would have been there the whole time! Not, six years later!"

When Emma finished Alex, Lizzie and Andrew came running over to them. Each child went up to their own mothers giving them a hug. Manny and Ellie quickly got Lizzie and Andrew into the van. They, then stood on either side of Emma with Alex standing infront of Emma.

J.T. looked at Alex, "Is that him?"

Emma nodded.

J.T. bent down, "Hey kiddo. What's your name?"

Alex reached up and grabbed Emma's hand, "Alex."

J.T. looked up to Emma, "Couldn't think of a better name?"

Emma quickly picked up Alex, "He deserved to be named after someone who loved him."

J.T. stepped foward, "I love him."

Emma gave Alex to Manny and Manny got him into the van. Ellie pulled out her cell phone, just in case.

Emma was about to hit J.T. again, but didn't want to with the kids sitting right in the van, "You can't love him. You don't even know him."

"That doesn't mean I don't love him."

"Tell me, J.T., why look for him now? Why not 6 years ago?"

"I couldn't. I shut off everything from my life here."

"Why?"

"Because the girl I was with did the same thing."

"Who was she?"

"You mean, who is she, we're still together. She's here looking for someone, too."

Emma tapped her foot, "What's her name?"

"Paige."
