The next morning I woke up to no Randy. I poked my head through the door and smiled. Randy fell asleep with Jayden curled up on his right side. He had his arm around her protectively. I grabbed my phone, took a picture and sent it to Jessi.
Oh crap! Jessi! I didn't tell her about last night!
I shut the door, changed into work out clothes, wrote Randy a note telling him I was at the gym.
I walked in, set my stuff down, put my blue tooth on and called Jessi.
"Morning sunshine."
Fuck you, what time is it?"
"6 a.m."
"I'm going to kill you! What's so damn important you called me this early?"
"Randy's back." I blurted out.
"WHAT?" She yelled.
"Steph. Signed him."
"That's why Trevor flew out of here so fast last night."
"Yup."
"How'd it go? Does he know about the kids? Are you two still together?"
"Whoa, calm down Jess. Deep breaths."
"Just answer my questions."
I told her about everything that happened last night and what I saw this morning.
"But are you two still together?"
"That, I don't know." I sighed.
"Well, isn't that kind of important to know? I mean, you still wear the promise ring he gave you forever ago."
"I know." I said sitting down on the bench, gulping water. "I want you to come up and see me."
"I don't know…"
"Jessica, I know that your and John's break up's still on your mind, but you saw him after that and were fine. I really want to see you, and your niece and nephew miss you like crazy!"
"What about my job?"
"Quit!"
"What? Are you crazy?"
"You have a teaching degree, my kids are about to start kindergarten, they need a tutor. Come on, you love kids, especially mine, so why not get paid for doing something you love?"
She sighed, "Where too?"
"YEAH!" I yelled, jumping up and down. "I'll book your flight, pack at least two months work of clothes." I said grabbing all my stuff, heading upstairs. "I'll call you when I have all the info."
"Ok, I'll start packing then."
"Alright, love you sis."
"Love you too."
I bounced back into the room.
"What's got you so excited?"
"JESSICA'S COMING!" I said throwing my crap on the bed.
"Yeah, Aunt Jessi!" The kids cheered.
"When?"
"As soon as I book the flight."
"Why? And what's up with her and John? He mentioned they broke up?"
"They did, I'll explain later, right now, I have to get into the shower." I grabbed some clothes and disappeared into the bathroom.
I emerged about twenty minutes later in a pair of denim shorts and a white tank top that stopped above my belly button.
"Wow." Randy said catching his breath.
"What?" I asked, looking down at my outfit.
"You've changed."
"Thought you would have realized that last night." I smiled.
"Well, I was more focused on felling you then noticing your body." He said truthfully.
I smiled at him again.
"Are you going to tell me about now or later about them?"
I glanced at the clock, "Later, when we get onto the plane. We have to be their I an hour." "Guess you should start packing then."
Randy packed up the kids' things, while I packed mine. An hour later we were boarding the plane, the kids sat by John, they like to sit by him for some reason, probably to bug the hell out of him.
SORRY IT'S BEEN SO LONG!!!!!
