Last Time

"So, are you in a relationship? We know you have been photographed with a few girls recently. Are any of them serious relationships?" Of course, I'm sure everyone would like to know the answer to that question.

"Gee, isn't that the question on everyone's mind." I laughed. The interviewer gave me a sly smile.

"Rumor has it the fan you were pictured with after a concert is from here. Is that why you're in Seaford.

"I'll be honest with you guys for a minute. Yes, I am in a relationship right now but for her privacy and safety, I will not release her name or the city she lives in. I also ask that you guys do not look into it because it could potentially cause problems for her. I actually ask that all media stays out of the situation." They cut the cameras and the interviewer looked at me.

"We can leave that out If you would like." She stated.

"I guess I don't mind if you leave that in, all I ask is that you take out the part where yo mention Seaford." I replied.

"You've got it, and we will not look into her, you have our word. As for other media outlets, I suggest talking to each one. Most of them are very understanding when it comes to stuff like this." She stated. I smiled.

"Thank you, I appreciate it." I shook her hand and we parted ways.

Now

I entered Kim's room with a smile on my face.

"How was the interview?" My mom asked. I turned around to see that she had been crying.

"What's wrong?" I ignore her question and immediately ran over to her side.

"Oh nothing son, Kim's just an amazing girl." She smiled at Kim and then gave me a look that said, 'go over there'. I walked over to the side of Kim's bed and she smiled at me.

"Hey Kane, would you like to go get ice cream with me?" My mom asked Kane. He smiled and bobbed his head up and down quickly. My mom and Kane walked out of the room, leaving me and Kim alone.

"So, how'd it go?" Kim asked.

"Pretty good, they asked about you." I told her and she started to panic immediately. "I mean, not exactly, they didn't say your name at all. they asked me if I was in a relationship." That seemed to calm her nerves.

"And what did you say?" She asked.

"Yes." I replied. Kim smiled. "But I politely asked them not to look into my relationship for your privacy." I added. Her smile grew larger.

"Thank you Jack, I appreciate it." She reached up and kissed me softly then pulled me into the bed with her.

"So Kim, can I ask you a question?" I looked at her and she nodded.

"Is a Kane, is her your-"

"He's my little brother Jack. Well, half brother." She stated.

'Half?" I questioned.

"Yeah, after my mom passed away my dad started going out a lot and he ended up getting a girl pregnant. Problem was, the girl was only sixteen so she ended up leaving Kane on the doorstep." Kim started tearing up. "My dad took great care o him until we found out he has cancer. The medical bills got to him after a while. He hasn't been the same since." Tears were streaming down her face and I wasn't sure how to react.

"I'm sorry Kim, I didn't know." I whispered as I pulled her close.

"It's okay. I just feel like I'm all he has left now. His mom left him, his dad went rouge and now his sister is an asshole." Kim stated.

"Is that why you kept saying you were selfish the other day?" I asked her and she nodded. "Look at me baby," Goosebumps ran up her arm after that sentence but her frown never shifted. "You're not an asshole, you're an amazing woman and Kane is so lucky to have you but I want you to know that you guys aren't alone anymore. You've got me and my mom and I have a feeling you and Jerry are gonna...well, yanno." She chuckled at that last part.

"He seems nice." Kim jumped to his defense.

"He is. He is also the type of guy that if he cares about you, he will give his life for you but he can be a bit...out there for lack of a better term." I stated. Kim smiled. We talked until Kane and my mom got back.

"Hey buddy." Kane smiled at me.

"Hi Jacky." He replied and Kim laughed.

"So you want to come sit with me and Jacky?" She asked once she had gotten her giggles out. Kane nodded his head quickly. I helped Kane up, then pulled out my phone to check the time but I was instead met with a ton of texts and twitter alerts.

"Woah." I said out loud. I turned off most of the notifications on my social media because fans are usually on them all day so I knew that none of the alerts were from my fans. However, I do allow notifications from verified accounts. I glanced some of the alerts and noticed that they al had something in common. They all mentioned 'my girlfriend'. I opened my twitter and began reading the full messages. It was a bunch of media outlets that wanted me to know that they weren't going to look into Kim. I handed her the phone and she began to tear up.

"That's supposed to be good news." I chuckled as I pulled her close to me.

"I know, I just...they respect your wishes." She said.

"No, they respect your privacy." I replied. She smiled at me.

"That was quick." She mumbled and everyone chuckled. "How do all of them know already?" She asked.

"I think the station I just interviewed with let them all know. " I replied.


"So Kim, it's up to you. Do you want to go to our house or do you want us to take you guys to yours?" I asked as Kim signed her release papers.

"Um, would um, would it be okay if Kane and I came to your house?" Kim asked, putting emphasis on 'and'.

"Of course, the both of you are always welcome." My mom interjected.

"Tank you so much Mrs. Brewer." Kane said.

"Awh, sweetie you can call me Janette of Jan of whatever you want to call me."

"Um, can I call you mama J?" Kane asked and Kim and I chuckled.

Kim finished up her paper work and we were on our way.

"Do you guys have a car seat for Kane?" My mom asked as we buckled him into the backseat with Kim.

"Um, I could probably steal it out of my dad's car really quick." Kim replied.

"No, absolutely not." My mom and I said in sync.

"But he-" she was cut off.

"Nope, we'll just go buy one right now. Where's the closest Walmart?" My mom asked.

"No, really, don't waste your-" She was cut off again.

"Please Kim, I'm gonna need one for him." My mom stated.

"But what if Jack and I-"

"Don't say it." I cut her off.

"Even if you guys do-" I cut my mom off as well.

"Don't say it."

"Well, no matter what, Jack and I will be here for you guys no matter what. Whether you guys are in a relationship or not." My mom stated and all I could do was nod. She was right. No matter what I will always be there for Kim and Kane. My mom and I have become fully invested in the two of them.

"So, where is the nearest Walmart?" My mom asked again and this time, Kim began giving her Directions. About five minutes later we pulled into the parking lot and everyone hoped out.

"Hey mom, how about you and Kim go get Kim some clothes and stuff that she can keep at our house and Kane and I will go pick out a car seat and some clothes for him." I suggested and my mom smiled.

"I like the way you think." My mom stated with a chuckled. "However, I was thinking that Kane could use some clothes with a little more swagger and that Kim could use some name brand clothes." My mom stated and it was my turn to smile.

"I love the way you think. I say we run to the mall either today or tomorrow morning." I replied.

"No, absolutely not." Kim stated.

"You have no choice. Either you pick out clothes that you want to wear of I'll pick out clothes that you just have to wear whether you like them or not but either way I know my little man Kane will go shopping with me." I bent down and looked at Kane. "You'll go get swagger clothes with me right?" I asked him and he nodded. I looked up at Kim.

"Fine." She glared at me.

"We'll go tomorrow morning so the mall is not as busy but lets go get a car seat right now." We walked over to all of the car seats on display.

"Which one do you want Kane?" My mom asked him and his face lit up.

"Just get the cheapest one." Kim said before Kane could even react.

"Those one's aren't safe. Just pick the coolest one Kane. You have to love it though because it takes a while to get to our house." My mom stated.

"But Kimmy said-"

"Don't listen to Kimmy, she's crazy. Jacky's paying for it anyways." I jumped in. "Do you like the Spiderman one?" I asked and he shook his head.

"I wike da Batman one." he pointed at the car seat.

"Is that the one you want?" I asked him and he nodded. "Alright, then that's what we'll get." I went to grab the box but Kim stopped me.

"That's nearly Two hundred dollars Jack!" Kim freaked out.

"So, its Batman holding two cups and it has a built in blanket as batman's cape. I would sit in this if I could fit." I joked and Kim punched my arm. "Alright, mom, would you mind checking us out?"

"Sure." She grabbed the box and placed it in the cart. "Come one Kane, lets go get a few more things and then we'll put your car seat in the car." My mom and Kane disappeared around the corner.

"Look, I know that you're worried about money but I'm fortunate enough not to have to worry about that so much so could you please just let me help you. It's not like I went out and bought you a bunch of unnecessary things. This is a car seat and some clothes that we're talking about. Please just let us help you. Please. I know that you're not used to this kind of stuff but you're going to have to get used to it because if you need something, I'm going to get it for you." I told her.

"But-"

"No buts. Just let us help you." She looked up at me.

"Fine." She whispered.

I kissed the top of her head and pulled her to the front of the store to find my mom but she wasn't there so we went out to the car but she wasn't there either. We walked around the store for a little while before we found her in the bath isle with a loaded cart.

"What? Are you buying the whole store?" I joked.

"No, I'm just getting some bathroom essentials. I'm gonna let them have that bathroom that we never use." My mom replied. "And Kim and Kane can share the spare room until I get that room that we just store boxes and stuff in cleaned out." My mom stated and for the first time ever, Kim didn't protest. She clearly wasn't thrilled but she didn't argue.

Once my mom was done shopping we checked out, loaded up the car and set off for our house.
