Anyways please review if you read! Thnx!

Johnny-Johnny pulled into Shelly's drive and stopped the car. He walked up to the doorbell and waited. Shelly was a platinum blonde 25 year-old who lived in a house by herself. Johnny had found her through an ad in the paper. She watched Lilly after school.
Shelly had just finished cutting an apple for Lilly when her doorbell rang.
"Oh, Lilly that must be your daddy!" She called.
"Otay shlelly, I'm commin!" the little voiced called from the kitchen.
Shelly opened the door and let Mr. Castle in.
"Hello Shelly. How was she today?" Johnny asked.
"She was perfect, just like always." Shelly said and smiled towards the kitchen. "But today when I picked her up she had mud all over her dress. I gave her an old t-shirt to wear instead. Her dress is in the dryer."
"Oh, thank you."
"No problem." She said. Shelly led him to the kitchen where Lilly sat eating her apple. When she saw her father she jumped down from the counter and ran into his arms.
"Hey sweetie! Did you have a good day?" Johnny said kissing the top of his daughter's head.
"Daddy I got all muddy. A boy pushed me out of my swing. But my new friend tristen helped me up!"
"Awe I'm sorry baby. Ms. Shelly said she washed it. Who is tristen?"
"Tristen is a first grader. His whole name is Tristen Ho-" Beeeepppp the machine sounded.
"Oh that must be her dress!" Shelly said.
"Shlelly can I put it back on?" Lilly asked.
"Sure sweetie. Let me go grab it so you and your dad can be going. I'm sure you wanna go see your mommy "
"Oh we don't have anywhere to be, and she can't go see her mom." Johnny said slightly mumbling the last part.
Shelly gave him a look then went into the laundry room. She came back out holding the dress.
"Okay Lilly lets put this on. Are you finished with your apple?" shelly asked the 5 year old.
"Yes ma'am." Lilly said. Johnny smiled; proud he had raised this polite little girl.
Shelly put Lilly's dress on her. Lilly ran into the playroom as soon as she was done. Shelly put Lilly's apple plate and cup into the dishwasher and washed her hands.
"Would you like some coffee?" Shelly asked Johnny.
"Thanks. I'd love some." Johnny smiled. He sat down at the counter and watched her. "Listen about Lilly's mother"-
"No its okay. I shouldn't have said anything. I didn't know." Shelly said.
"Well I want you to know what happened. Her mother died right after Lilly was born, and I'm not her actual father." Johnny said.
Shelly turned the pot on and turned around. "Your not? Then how did you end up with her?"
"I was her mothers closest friend since we were little. I was the only one at the hospital when she was born and when P-She died. The doctors asked if I knew who the father was and I told them no. They asked if I knew any of her other family members and I knew them but they had kicked her out at 16 so they wouldn't have taken the little girl in. I told them that I would take the baby. That's is what P- Uhh, She would have wanted. I took her to the courts the next day and legally adopted her."
"Oh Johnny, that's the sweetest thing I've ever heard." Shelly said. She noticed the tear that was almost about to fall in his eye.
Baby-Baby pulled into the school parking lot and ran inside. Scared they would charge her extra for being late to pick tristen up from asp. (After school program) She got in and signed him out.
"That's six dollars ma'am." The attendant said. Good, baby thought. They didn't charge me extra. Baby pulled out her last few bills and handed them to her. She called tristen on the walkie talky to go.
Tristen came running up the hall to his mother. Glad to be out of that boring place.
"Hi mommy!" Tristen said hugging his mom.
"Hello baby. Lets get home we still have to eat dinner." She grabbed his bag and they walked to the car.
Baby buckled him in and got in the drivers seat.
"Mommy I helped a little kindergarten girl today." Tristen said.
"Did you? How so?" she looked at him in her rear view mirror. The next thing she saw were headlights coming very fast towards her car.
BOOM- (to be continued!)
A/n okay so cliffhanger right?
Ha!
So tell me. Do you want Johnny and Baby to be together or Shelly and Johnny? I have ideas for both but I want to know what you think :) please review!
