Chapter 73 Jake stays with Izzy

Jake's POV

The next morning, Izzy was getting her x-ray done while Cubby and I were waiting in the room with the kids.

"How long do you think Izzy's x-ray is going to take Jake?" Cubby asked me.

"I don't know, about 5 minutes 6 tops." I said to him.

As Izzy came back from the x-ray room, the doctor parked her bed to the wall as he left, Cubby baby Jay and I were about to leave.

"Goodbye, daddy." Princess said to me.

"Wait, you know what? I think I'll stay behind Sweetie." I said to her.

" Jake? Remember the semi finale dance rehearsal?" Cubby asked me.

"Cubby, Izzy and Princess are more important." I said to him.

"But, Jake your needed at the dance studio." Cubby said to me.

" May I remind you that princess almost went into the x-ray room, becauFyI said to him.

"So I made a mistake, big deal." Cubby said to me.

" Big deal? Big deal? Cubby Baby Jay and princess could have gotten into a bad accident. Or worse, they could have diedif you didn't watch them if you didn't find them on time. So what's more important, rehearsal or family?" I asked him.

"Both, actually." Cubby said to me.

"And another thing, I can't dance with Izzy for two weeks because you kicked her in the ribs, and she had to get surgery on it." I said to him.

"Well, maybe I did do it on purpose." Cubby said to me.

"No you didn't Uncle Cubby stop saying that." Princess said to him.

"You shut mouth." Cubby said to her.

"Don't you dare speak to my daughter that way young man." I said to him.

"You know what? Take your son. I'm going to the dance studio with or without you Jake." Cubby said to me.

"Cubby get back here." I said to him.

"I'm not speaking to you." Cubby said to me.

"So what you just going to leave me here with Izzy Baby Jay Princess? Come on dude." I said to him.

" Technically Jake, it was your idea to stay back." Izzy said to me.

"Thanks for reminding me about that sweetie." I said to her.

As I went to sit down on the chair next to Izzy, I saw her sleeping as Princess was trying to get off.

"I got you sweetie." I said to her as I placed her on the floor.

"Thanks, daddy!" Princess said to me as she grabbed her crutches.

"Where you going Princess?" I asked her.

"Going to the bathroom." Princess said to me as I nodded my head.

" Okay sweetie, be careful in there." I said to her as she closed the door.

After Princess came out of the bathroom she walked towards me.

"Daddy can you take me on a stroll?" Princess asked me.

" Sure! Besides mommy sleeping right now so I guess it won't hurt take you out for a walk." I said to her as we went for a stroll around the hospital.

"So how's your leg feeling?" I asked her.

" It's okay Daddy. It's a good thing I know how to use my crutches." Princess said to me.

"Yep, you definitely take after your mother." I said to her.

" Daddy look balloons! Can you buy one for me?" Princess asked me.

"Sure how about you one for you one for Mommy." I said to her as I gave the guy three dollars for the balloons.

"Daddy how did you know I like purple?" Princess asked me.

"I don't know, maybe it's because you're wearing a purple cast on your leg." I said to her.

"Cool. But I'll take the pink one mommy can have the purple." Princess said to me.

"How did you know Mommy likes purple?" I asked her.

" I'm her daughter I know everything. Daddy I may be 2 years old but I know everything okay." Princess said to me.

" Pretty soon you'll be 3 years old. My little girl is growing up." I said to myself.

"Daddy are you crying?" Princess asked me.

" No, the sprinklers were on." I said to her.

"Nice, try Daddy." Princess said to me.

"Hey, mommy's awake yay!" Princess said to me with excitement as we walked back into her room.

"Jake, where did you guys go?" Izzy asked me.

"Oh I took Princess out for a stroll, and I got you a pink balloon." I said to her as I tied it on her bed.

" Thanks Jake I love it." Izzy said to me.

"Mommy, daddy was crying earlier." Princess said to her.

"You were? why?" Izzy asked me.

" Well because I'm just happy that our daughter is about to turn in three next year and I'm just thrilled to have her Izzy." I said to her.

" So can we just pretend that you gave both to both our children?" I asked her.

" No. That's not how pregnancy works Jake. And besides I'm too young to get pregnant right now. Well we just adopted them so let's just keep it as that." Izzy said to me.

" Find your the boss." I said to her.

"Of course I'm the boss, I'm the mother of two children's. Okay, make that four children's." Izzy said to me.

" Okay what do you mean by four...? Oh." I said to her.

"Mommy, Daddy's older than you." Princess said to her.

"Yeah but where... Okay she has a point." I said to her.

"Yeah but aren't you two one month apart from each other?" Princess asked us.

" Yes! My birthday comes before Izzy's." I said to her.

"Actually Jake, my birthday comes before yours." Izzy said to me.

"Yeah but who did Peter Pan take care of first you or me?" I asked her.

"Actually mommy, Daddy's right his birthday comes before yours." Princess said to her.

"How do you know so much about us?" I asked her.

" I told you I'm your daughter. I may be 2 years, old but I know you guys already." Princess said to us.

" Are you some kind of government agent?" I asked her.

"Jake calm down she's two lighten up." Izzy said to me.

"Do you want me to be?" Princess asked me.

"Okay, forget I asked that question." I said to her.

" Jake you're just stressed take a seat on the chair." Izzy said to me.

" I'm not stressed I'm not stressed okay, I'm fine." I said to her.

"Jake, what did Cubby go?" Izzy asked me.

" He went to the dance studio." I said to her.

"By himself?" Izzy asked me.

"Yeah. He's fine okay." I said to her.

"Who's watching baby Jay?" Izzy asked me.

"I put baby Jay on your bed." I said to her.

"Oh, thank God. For a moment there, I thought we lost one of our children." Izzy said to me.

"We would never lose our children. Well Cubby would apparently." I said to her.

" Cubby, lost 99% of our children?" Izzy asked me.

"You know, I'm thirsty I'm going to get something to drink. You want something to drink Izzy?" I asked her.

"Jacob Alex Hutchinson get back in here." Izzy called me.

"When did Cubby lose 99% of our children?" Izzy asked me.

" It was yesterday, when you were under anesthesia and I was texting the guys I didn't know how you were until cubby was freaking out and I asked him why are you freaking out he didn't say anything until he brought out the stupid puppets. That's when I got mad and asked him again. And that's when he told me he lost the kids. Don't yell at me." I said to her.

"YOU KNOW I'M GOING TO YELL AT YOU!" Izzy said to me.

"Okay it looks like you're mad." I said to her.

"Mommy uncle Cubby found us." Princess said to her.

" Yeah did I forgot to mention our kids almost went into an x-ray room?" I asked her.

"What? Princess you know what not to go in there." Izzy said to her.

"Your mother's right, you could have put baby Jay in danger." I said to her.

" Don't you're off the hook Jake cuz you're not." Izzy said to me.

"Why you blaming me for this? Blame our little brother he's the one that lost the kids. And I already grounded him for that." I said to her.

"Well let me tell you something Jake... YOU'RE GROUNDED AS WELL!" Izzy said to me.

"Okay I think my ear, is bleeding." I said to her.

"No, I just shared your eardrum." Izzy said to me.

"That's even worse." I said to her.

"if your ear was bleeding Jake, I would have literally blown a bullhorn in your ear." Izzy said to me.

"So anyway, what rehearsal is it over there right now?" Izzy asked me.

"It's the semi-final dance rehearsal." I said to her.

"Why aren't you over there?" Izzy asked me.

"I didn't want to leave you a princess alone, so I decided to stay back." I said to her.

"But Jake, I'm okay I'll be fine." Izzy said to me.

" Izzy, you just came out of surgery yesterday, how can you be fine right now? What are something bad happens to you? What what what if something bad happened to princess and Baby Jay? I, I don't want to lose my family." I said to her as I started to cry.

"Aww, Jake." Izzy said to me as I laid down her bed while my head was on her chest.

"My family is more important right now. That's why I decided to stay back. I don't want anything happening to you guys. Because it's something bad happens to either you baby Jay princess or Cubby, then I'll be all alone with nobody inside The Hideout." I said to her.

"Jake, it's okay buddy it's okay Izzy's here. I promise you nothing is going to happen to either one of us. Where your family we stick together." Izzy said to me.

"Got that right Izzy." Cubby said to her as I turned around.

"Cubby what are you doing back here?" I asked him.

"Anybody was asking about you Jake, even Sofia. And Peter Pan's kind of mad that you weren't there. But I told him that you had to stay back with Izzy and princess it was your choice. Also, I'm sorry about that argument we had." Cubby said to me.

"I just don't want anything to happen to you guys. I'm sorry too." I said to him.

" Now Izzy, I bet you heard that I lost your kids yesterday." Cubby said to her.

"Cubby they could have gotten killed." Izzy said to him.

"I know, and I'm sorry. I know these kids mean a lot to you and Jake. They mean a lot to me too. I promise I'll never lose them again." Cubby said to her.

" I don't know if Jake and I can trust you now since you lost the kids yesterday." Izzy said to him.

"But I found them." Cubby said to her.

.Once Izzy fell back asleep while cuddling with her teddy bear in her arms, Drm Lynch came in with Izzy's x-rays as he places them on the wall as he then notices Izzy's asleep.

"It's okay, I'll explain it to her when she wakes up." I said to him as he nodded his head and just told Cubby and I.

"Okay so Izzy has made progress from her surgery and the recovery so far, it's looking really good. As you can see here by the X-ray of her ribs before and after her surgery, it's working really good so far. But make sure Izzy is still resting during recovery time, and make sure she's not dancing." Dr Lynch said to us as Cubby then got a text from Austin Moon.

"Jake, Austin said that we need to be there for the final dance, so we have to go." Cubby said to me.

"That's okay Cubby I'll just skip it today." I said to him.

"I'm fine with that." Cubby said to me as he then left.

Cubby's POV

As I entered Studio A, Peter stopped me.

"Cubby, where's Jake?" Peter asked me.

"Well you see Peter, Jake decided to skip the final dance today so he can stay with Izzy." I said to him.

"No, he needs to be here NOW CUBBY!" Peter said to me.

"But Peter can you please give Jake a break? When I went back to the hospital, I heard Jake crying because he doesn't want either of us to get hurt." I said to him.

"Okay fine, I'll give him a break." Peter said to me as I hugged him.

"Thank you Peter Pan I love you." I said to him.

"yeah yeah, I love you too." Peter said to me.
