Paul POV

Let me introduce myself in first place, My name is Paul Levesque and I'm a pilot for American Airlines, I'm 33 and I'm on the high peak of my career, my wife Wendy is an flight attendant for the same company as me, 7 years we met each other and now we are happily married with a 3 months old little boy named Adam, our lives are hard because our schedules are different many times, but we manage to live through it and now we have a little human being to give love and rock our worlds, I always wanted to be a father but Wendy wasn't so sure about it because she didn't had the same amount of interest as me but now that he came to the world she's more into it than before.

Now we have another problem, we need as soon as possible a housekeeper and nanny for our baby, our licenses are ending and in days we need to get back to work, our schedules are going to be easier to manage because of Adam but still there's a lot of time he would be alone, but anyone is keen on being here in those double positions, they all say the baby is too young to be taken care of by them, and I understand, it's a big responsibility but the job has to be done, but cleaning a house even I could do it with a leg on my back.

Plus, we have a dog than needs to be fed and have company as well so everything it's a big task but it's really well paid as well.

"Baby! Someone answered the post!" Wendy called from the living room

I ran across the kitchen to the living room and popped myself on the couch next to her reading the intro of the woman that answered.

"A 21-year-old girl?! And she just finished school, I'm not putting my baby in the hands of a young person, I wouldn't be in peace knowing our baby would be alone with her, I mean no discrimination but still" She looked at me with a blank face.

"She's young yes but she's saying here she has experiences with babies of relatives, not much but it's something and she might be the only one accepting this job, and they seek for money to survive" She has her point and I don't disagree but still it's frightening on my mind.

"Yes but still, I'll wait to another person to answer the post, someone more mature and experienced, with some degrees on it" She closed the laptop and dropped it on top of the table in front of us, she turned to me and picked my hands on hers.

"Hun, give her a try, let's just call her over and have a talk to see if she's going to be in our good books, the other ones had that privilege so I think she's no different just because of her age" I hate when she's right.

"Why do you have to be so right sometimes?" And I kissed her.

I fought so much in life to get where I am right now, to give my children a good future, something they can lean on in the bad and good times, I want to make them proud and when they look back to see what dad has done for them, but right now I just have Adam but I want to have more in the future.

Steph POV

Hey there guys! My name is Stephanie McMahon and I just finished school more properly college.

I was working in a bakery shop till this very day, I got done with it and decided to change jobs, I'm living on my own, and currently I'm interested in working as a domestic, I love cleaning and that would be perfect, not to talk that the salary is really good in general.

I have to pay the rent and the bills, some months are harder than the others to squeeze the money for the month but It's the life of a poor woman, as a student I never could work as full time so part time was the only way to win some money to survive, but now I can have a proper job with some proper hours and I found the perfect one, good salary, its about cleaning and taking care of a baby and a dog, I took care of a couple of babies in the family and I have a dog on my parents' house so I think I can manage everything.

Hours later after answering the add, a woman called me to book an interview at her house, in this case the workplace, and for the address I recognize it's in the hills of Hollywood, they must be very rich, it's the dream of any American to live on the hills.

I have to tell my friends, I'm happy that they at least took time to look into my introduction and call me to know me better, Becca is going to be thrilled to know this.

I went to my kitchen where I left my phone charging and I dialed her number.

It rang once…twice…and…

"Hi girl how are you, miss me already? College just ended last week" Then she giggled, this girl is crazy let me tell you.

"You're funny for sure, but I have some gossip for you, well it's not total gossip… but I got an interview to get a job in… HOLLYWOOD HILLS!" She screamed and I screamed.

"How did you do it?! That's one of the richest parts of L.A, are you going to be a hooker?! Don't do it! There's better out there and you don't have to humiliate yourself that way for money" It's what I say she's crazy.

"You really think I would do it? I need money but not at the point to turn myself into a hooker, well I answered an add on internet about a job here in L.A to take care of a baby a dog and a house, then the lady called me and she booked an interview with me, when I saw the address my eyes almost got out of place, Hollywood Hills baby!"

"That's sick! Oh my gosh girl imagine its Mel B house?! Wait she didn't have any baby now, or wait! Maybe it's Heidi Klum!"

"None of them, her name is Wendy for what I know, maybe it's the wife of someone famous, I'll figure it out tomorrow"

"You tell me how it went after! Maybe you will find some rich guy around the neighborhood and you marry him, your life is done till you die, only if you keep the job of course"

"You know i´m not after any of those guys, they only cheat on their wives, and the money, oh the money… they think it can buy everything, it does comfort but doesn't buy happiness, I rather find some random guy in a bar and fall in love with him"

"You really would do it? The bar part?"

"You never know, but not rich guys for sure!" I've dated a couple of guys back in college but nothing serious, and it's not on my plans right now to do it anyways, I like my freedom.

"I've got to go, Shawn is waiting for me, he's going to take me to the cinema"

"You're still with that punk ass guy? I thought you let him go" She's the most confusing person sometimes, I never know when she's single or not, always going and coming with that guy, I mean he's 30 somethings and she's my age, he could have any girl near his age to marry and to have children, but no, he's behind her .

"I did but I came back with him again, I can't let him go, every time I do it, I think it's the right thing to do but I miss him so much, plus you know he has lots of money" That's another factor, that's why she's over heels over this type of gossip.

"I see I see… Hope you won't regret it, have a good time, see you my friend" And I hung up, well it's noon and I need some grocery's at home, I should do some shopping.

Since I don't have a car, I need to take a bus to target, and a taxi back here because I can't with all the groceries.

While I'm on the bus I'm writing on a paper everything I need to buy, I like to do monthly shopping, that way I save more money and control myself on it as well, but my mind today is wondering to elsewhere, this looks surreal, all the routine I was used to is over, college was my life, and occupied me more than half day then I would work at night, now I don't do nothing during this days till I get some job and hopefully I'll get one tomorrow, I'm not used to be alone so much time, and it's making me depressed to not have noise around me and company.

"Miss Stephanie, we're here"

"Thank you, George, I was on the moon" I know the bus driver by now, many years catching it and I ended up on a friendship with George.

George is a middle 50's old man, father and husband, happy family he says, really nice man as well.

"Have a nice day Miss" And I waved at him as he went way.

I entered the store and I went to the dietic aisle; I'm doing a healthier lifestyle for some months now and I'm noticing changes on my body and health, and I wish I could get money to pay for gym but unfortunately there's none for that.

I put some granola, organic milk, natural juices, some vegies and lots of fruit, and right now I'm going to the egg aisle, lot's of eggs that I eat, and they hard to reach, this shelves are too high, so I had the brilliant idea of jumping to catch them, which I did, but the worse happened.

"I'm so sorry Sir!" Yes, I just turned around and crashed into a man that is bigger than a mountain.

"Don't worry Miss, I'm ok" And he smiled at me, but then I really saw the damage I did to him, his shirt is ruined as well pants and shoes, everything is dripping.

"Your clothes! I can't believe this, look I'll clean everything, I mean I don't know how because the clothes are on your body but..." He put his hand in front of me in a stop hand sight.

"Miss, don't worry, clothes are the least, did you hurt yourself?"

"I'm fine, I'm just really sorry for that"

"As I said it's everything fine, no need to stress about it, have a good day" And he went away, I'm so clumsy! And for his looks he must be a rich guy, that Ralph Laurent polo and those Fred Perry pants and shoes ain't no fake!

Paul POV

Well my noon was strange but a funny one at the same time, I went to shop for my parents, they live in the suburbs of L.A, my mom currently has cancer so I help them when I have free time, what I fear the most is the time I'll be working, I won't have that much time and the time I will have is for my baby, my mom didn't met Adam yet, just in pictures that I show to her when I drop by, because her immune system is so fragile that I'm afraid of her getting any disease and he's still to little to get around as well so it's a hard situation to handle.

I have a sister but she lives in the other side of the country, she does her best to be present but she has a life too.

My parents asked me what happened while I dropped the food in their house because they saw me all dirty and when I told them what happened they laughed a lot, typical.

Right now, I'm pulling up on my garage and I managed to dry my clothes the maximum I could, right now I'm just full of stains.

I got up the stairs and called my wife.

"Baby I'm home!" She met me at the kitchen where the garage door leads and she stopped wide opened mouth.

"What happened to you?!" She got closer and took a better look at the mess.

"Short story, I went to the store to buy groceries for my parents and a girl crashed into me with some eggs"

"I thought you went to run your errands" She doesn't like when I go to the suburbs.

"I did, but my mom called saying she needed some things and I went to pick some for her" I forgot to mention that my mom and Wendy don't go along well, because let's say… my wife was born with a silver spoon on her mouth and I was raised on the suburbs, so she discriminates a little bit suburb people.

"You really had to go to that area, you know I don't like you being there, they're above us" There it goes, always the same shit.

"Let's not have the same conversation again, before I was who I am I was raised in those suburbs, just because I have another lifestyle it's not a definition of who I've been raised, I'm still the same as I was 10 or 20 years ago"

"I know but that's in the past, now you have another high standard life, you need to think about that"

"No Wendy, when you married me you knew what package you were getting into to, I'm not going to stop seeing my parents just because they're not rich and you know to well my mom is really sick and you don't even have the nerve to visit her or call to know how she's doing, so let's just stop this before I get really pissed off, and I really don't want to have fights" I love her, but when she starts doing this man… I just get out of myself.

"Ok I'm sorry, why don't we take off those clothes of yours and I apologize more deeper" She got closer to me and started to undo my pants, I have to admit I can't resist a good make up sex, it's so liberating, she knows how to get me for sure.

"What do you have in mind?" She put her hands inside my pants and let the fun begins…

Shawn POV

"Becca sweetie, I need to talk to you something serious" I spoke up breaking the mood of watching some tv on the couch.

"Is something that I need to worry about?" I muted the tv and started to let it all out.

"You know our relationship has been the strangest thing ever, and you know I like you very much, between all of this breakups and coming backs I realized you're the one I like and idealize a future with, so will you please accept this ring and be my girlfriend as in a serious relationship?" I took a Tiffany's box out of my pocket and opened to her.

"I don't know what to say…" She was just speechless looking at the box after those words.

"I understand if you don't feel like it already, but on my heart my feeling is this, I can give you time, and when you're ready we'll jump into something more serious" I'm shaking by now, she's a young girl that was confused about us, I understand, it's part of the age but I want to show her she can grow up and make decisions with more head and toes, and I'm not here to fool around anymore.

"No Shawn, I want to, really bad, I've realized I had to stop to hurt you and run away from my true feelings, I want to spend all my time with you as well, you're my better half baby" I took the ring out of the box and put on her finger.

"It's so beautiful even if it's a dating ring, it means the world to me" And she kissed me so sweetly.

"So… I was thinking what better than going to my best friend house and tell the news? He's a big part of my life and I want to share this with him" My best friend, he's been with me since kindergarten, we both were raised on the suburbs, but we both got good grades in college and now we are grown ass men with good lives, well he's a better one that me , he's a dad and a husband, I'm just succeed in life, but I hope Becca and I will have the same path.

"Of course, I will be honored, wherever you want we can meet him"

"Thank you so much, I'll call him and see if we can have dinner with him" He's on a license still so hopefully we can go out.

I picked up my phone and he answered in no time, damn.

"Hi brother! How are you man?"

"What's up handsome, I'm good and you?" Yeah, he likes to be funny, I still remember the times he would say he loved me and people though we were gay.

"I'm good as well, how is your baby boy and your wife?" I want to know more about the baby then her to be honest, she can be a bitch sometimes, I don't know what he saw on her.

"They are great, he's getting a big boy like his dad, and Wendy is in the same boat as me, waiting for the license to end, the work is calling"

"I bet he's, so buddy I wanted to share some news with you, important ones"

"Do tell! Are you…?" Him being him.

"Gay? No and you know it, I'm officially off the market, like with ring and all"

"What?! You really found someone? What happened?! I mean this is great news for shore, I'm shocked because you were the unlucky one between our group"

"I guess it was about time, so I was wondering if you all were available tonight to go and have a dinner? I want you all to meet my girlfriend"

"Of course, well do you mind being here at my house? Because I don't want the little one to wonder around in noisy restaurants and all, I know I'm a overprotective father but he will thank me in the future" I wasn't expecting less, that guy was expecting this day since forever, more than her, I'm wondering if she had children just to make him a favor, which sounds horrible but I don't know at what point she was capable of it.

"At your house will be! I can't wait to see him as well, it's been a while, what kind of a godfather am i?!"

"A busy one, that works a lot and barely has time for himself, it's ok man! He won't forget you just like that, from time to time I say to him how much you like him and how busy you are, but today is your day!"

"That's set then, in a while I'll be there with her, bye" I hung up and Becca was looking at my with a funny face.

"Yeah we're weird, that's why a long friendship is developed, so baby, we need to dinner at his house, because he has baby with 3 months and he's those parents that want to put him on a bubble to not catch any disease, you can imagine he doesn't want to go out with him"

"It's ok by me, it will be more chilled, I like that, so I understood you're the godfather of the baby, and a cheap one" I started to poke her ribs till she was crying at the same time she was laughing.

"By my defense I work a lot that's why I barely have time to go and visit him, but he's on my thought weekly"

"You should buy him something as an apology"

"Yes I should, let's do it! Next stop: Toys r us!" And I picked her up from the couch on my arms.

Paul POV

"Wendy you're not going to believe this!" We still on the bed after our "apology making" and Adam is asleep after has been feed.

"Do tell, for the conversation you were talking to Shawn and he got someone already"

"Yes and yes, who knew, he even bought rings, he's really serious on this" She looking at me with a surprised face.

"Yep I know, and let's say they're here in a while? He wants to present her to us, so let's have a dinner all together" Another bomb is going to be dropped.

"Seriously? What am I going to do? I don't get my hair done who know how long, I have this face of murder because of the baby, what are they going to think of me?" she cares a lot for her looks and I understand that, everyone should, but she's something else.

"Shawn is family, he's seen you in worse faces, and she's a nice woman I'm sure of that, if not Shawn wouldn't be with her"

"And dinner?! I don't have nothing to do, not for 4 people, why did you invite them in first place?"

"First he wanted to go out but I refused because of Adam I'm sure you caught that conversation too and second I will grill some chicken and other stuff ok? You just need to put the table and nothing more" Today she's on my bad books for the second time.

"Ok I'll do it, and I'm going to try and save my looks" We both get out of the bed to get ready.

I went to the freezer to pick up the chicken and the other meat I had there, I'll fry some chips and do some salad, my meals are really restrictive because I'm bulky man, I like to do my gym, I have one on my basement, but today it's a day of celebration so fuck that.

I'm heating the grill to a nice temperature, ready to put the mean in, wow that sounded nasty.

"Paul! Adam is crying! Can you go upstairs?!" She is joking right?

"Can't you see I'm grilling the dinner?!" She always calls me, I'm the father and the mother sometimes.

"And? I need to get ready!" I looked over her when she approached me and she's fine, clothes changed, hair on place, face looks fresh, what does she want more?

"You're ready! You're fine!"

"No I'm not, look I need to pus some mascara then I need to.."

"Stop just stop! I'm going, sometimes I wonder what's more important to you, your child or yourself" And I stormed out of the backyard and went upstairs to him.

We have monitors all over the house but in backyard we don't, just when we both are there, we bring one, but I knew she was inside I could count on her but after all not at all.

"Hi daddy's champ" I picked him up and start to swing him slowly on my arms.

"You know who's coming to visit you today? It's Shawn, and he's going to bring a special friend" Somehow he calms down when he hears my voice, which Is great, he liked people to communicate with him.

"Yeah that's is buddy, everything is fine, let's check your diaper in case of any catastrophe" I went with him to his room and to the diaper changer, right now he's in our room on a crib besides our bed, so we can reach him as fast as possible when he starts to cry, but every parent does it.

"Ohhh look at this mess, you sure eat well, let's get you all cleaned up" He's good at dirty his diapers but it's a good thing for what the doctor said.

"You're a smelly little man, yes you are, yes you are" Another thing that I'm proud of is talking baby with my baby, being a parent it's a full time job but not paid, the opposite it's the job where you spend your money on, but it's so worthy.

"There you go, all clean and ready for another nap" I kissed his little cheek, and I smelled him deeply, I love his smell, but then again, any parent likes the smell of their children.

I put him gently on the crib and went downstairs to the backyard.

Or not, because the gate bell is ringing, I went straight to it and saw in the screen it was Shawn's car, well they will have to wait for the food still, I need to finish it.

"Hey man come in" I said on the intercommunicate and I run to the backyard, but surprisingly Wendy was finishing the meat.

"I figured out you needed some help, I'm sorry about earlier, I just don't you mad at me over my things"

"You know my thoughts on that, so let's not discuss it again, they're here, and thank you for finishing it" I switched with her and started to put all the meat on a big plate while she went to open the door.

I can hear them talking already on the living room, so I picked up a tray and put the plate with the meat in, the fries and the salad that she made as well, and I'm on my way to them.

"Paul my man! Long time no see!" They were all sat on the couch.

"You bet!" I put everything on the table and went to them.

"Come here you rascal" We hugged, a man hug, and then when we parted I looked over at his girlfriend, then at Wendy and she knew my thoughts, she's less the double than his age, she's like 19? He's out of his mind.

"So Paul this is my girlfriend Rebecca, Rebecca this my best friend Paul" We gave a kiss on each other's cheeks and I'm still thinking about this, did he thought well about this? I though she was at least his age or a bit less, not this young, I mean I don't know her age but c'mon we can see how young she is compared to him.

"Nice to meet you Rebecca, I hope he said good things about me, if not he's a dead man"

"No no, he said everything good about you"

"Now now, let's not get there, of course I'm a good mouth, let's get down to business… Where's the little man? I bring him some gifts" Then he showed two full bags of toys, he's crazy.

"He's sleeping, I just him down like 2 minutes ago, after dinner I'll bring him down, but right now, let's eat, food is getting cold"

"Let's go!" We all got up and sat on the table, each one took what they wanted to eat and then little talk was made.

"So, Rebecca tell us more about you, how did you two met" Wendy asked.

"Well he used to go a lot to a coffee near my college, and I think we just clicked, took us a long time to get here but I'm grateful that it happened definitively"

"Oh, that's a new way to meet I guess" And she looked at me

"Really awkward at first place but then it turns out very normal" she smiled and kept eating.

"Paul and Wendy right here work together in the same company" Shawn hinted.

"Oh really? You met each other there?"

"Yeah Paul is an airplane pilot and I'm a flight attendant for American Airlines, we met there indeed, I used to live in Miami but I moved to L.A because Paul lived here and the headquarters of American Airlines are here as well"

"It was her first flight from LAX to Tokyo-Narita and we got along with each other very well at first sight, then everything rolled around and here we go, married and with one child"

"That's dope! What a beautiful story" It is, and I always like to tell it to people, it's really unique.

"And where are you from?"

"I'm from Texas but I came to study here in L.A, they have the best college, I could have some money to come but I finished it already and I have a job as a designer, nothing big yet but in the future I'm seeking to open my own store, I live on the suburbs here, as any other normal college girl" Oh my origins.

"I was raised on the suburbs, Shawn as well, it might not seem like it but yes we did, my mom still lives there to this day"

"Paul how could I forget Patricia… How is she? Everything is getting on her favor?" Rebecca was looking sideways to him, not understating what's this about.

"She's fighting the good fight, quimioterapy is never easy, there's days she feels weak, barely gets up, there's other's she feels alright, days will tell"

"Your mom has cancer?"

"Yeah, breast cancer, it's been on for 3 months, we received the news after Adam was born, you can imagine the mix of emotions running trough me"

"I imagine it was hard, everything will be alright, nowadays treatments are successful" She looks like a nice girl, yes girl… not woman.

Everyone is finished with dinner; Wendy is taking everything out of the table and Rebecca offered to help, so right now they're going to the kitchen while me and Shawn are going upstairs, so he can see Adam, he didn't wake till now so I rather not move him downstairs.

"So Shawn, you didn't told me she was almost a teenager still, how old is she?"

"She's 21, I know it looks bad, but she's a good girl, better than some out there, that are older than her, believe me"

"I'm just concerned you're going to end up heartbroken again, you deserve a good life man, you're a hard worker, with good thoughts"

"I know and I appreciate, but trust me she's the one, I do feel it, you should try have one like her, you would be happier than you're now" Head lost? Check!

"I don't know where you pick that one but I'm happy how I am, and I wouldn't ever date a woman as young as her, I have a wife and child, I'm more than served" I was whispering because we arrived at the room.

"Oh my! He's so different. Not that little nugget I met, what a beautiful boy he's getting into" He rubbed his little back once or twice and turned to me.

"I know right? I'm so proud of it, it's been what I always wanted, my dream is right there and I wouldn't trade it for nothing" I can't help but to be a drooling parent.

"You deserve it man, but returning to our subject, you know I'm all honest and never hide anything"

"Of course, but why that now? What you want to tell me?"

"You know I never thought she was the one for you right? I mean I've told you many times"

"Yes of course, but you don't know how's her inside from that door, just with me"

"I don't but I can imagine, she can be worse than what she's outside, she's out of your league, away too much, you're so much better than her, you deserve so much better, it's been 7 years I know, and honestly I thought it wouldn't last even 2, I know you! You're not happy, you're just want to accept she's the mother of your child and the woman you married, but the feeling, my friend you're not happy" Why does everyone hates her? Because I don't see nothing wrong apart from her being sometimes of being picky and other stuff.

"Don't tell me how I should feel, it's been 7 years, that shows pretty well a strong marriage, you know how many women do I work with daily? And yet they never interested me"

"I don't disagree, but in those 7 years, how many tears were shed? How many fights were made? How many times you wanted to give up? Sex and apologies can't cover them, it gets better but it doesn't disappear, I didn't need to have 7 years of marriage to know that, I only had to have some relationships that would last 2 months maximum" Why? I want to agree with him, but I had fights with her today so it's making sense on my head but tomorrow it's another day.

"Stop hitting me, will you? What's up with you today? I didn't put anything on the dinner" I'm trying to break the ice here a bit.

"Now that I know what's real love, I want you to have the experience, you will thank me one day, you won't forget this conversation on this day"

"Just go and call your girlfriend so she can see the baby, this conversation is over"

"As you wish buddy, but don't forget, I love you man, and I'll see you happy… one day" And he left the room.

I sat on the bed and rubbed my hand on my face, he was inspired today to ditch her very good, better than the others, am I that blind? Or they just trying to make me crazy? Everyone has their bad parts, it's impossible to a person being so bad as he says.
