So this chapter is really short but, never fear because I am literally sentences away from finishing the next one! It should be up right after this one. I figured that I should make up for not updating in forever when this should be done by now so you get two updates today! YAY!

Sorry for being so behind, I am STILL kind of sick, I have a double ear infection but I am A LOT better than I was when I wrote that AN so it shouldn't keep me from writing anymore.

That all being said thank you to everyone who has reviewed, alerted or favorited!

He opened the door for me again and I climbed in. Before he walked around and got in.

"So now where to? Where I finally agreed to go out with you because I think the school is kind of locked," I told him.

"No even though that was a very important moment, we're skipping that one," he said with a small smile. "and you know as well as I do that the school isn't that hard to get into."

"I think Stan finally caught on and has talked to Kirova since the last time we snuck in." I said with a chuckle. We used to sneak into Stans' class and pull random pranks on him. not wanting to go down memory lane any more than I had to i went to turn the radio up but, before I could Dimitri spoke up.

"I'm not trying to pry but can I ask a question?" he asked. I leaned back and nodded. "Why does Alexz call my mother grandma?"

"Because she pretty much is his grandmother," I said leaving out the biology part. "Just because you stopped caring doesn't mean everyone else did. The moment she heard I was pregnant she stepped in and helped me out. now he knows her a lot better than he knows my mother so she just told him she was grandma and it stuck."

"I'm glad she's been there for you. I take it things with your mom aren't any better?" he asked.

"She's trying but you know family isn't one of the things she's best at. She visits every few months and we have gotten closer but we'll never be like most families. Baba tries though, he visits at least once a month. If it were up to him he'd be here a lot more but his business keeps him busy, plus he doesn't like staying here for too long, it makes things dangerous."

"Who is baba? And why does him being here for long make things dangerous?" Dimitri asked confused. I forgot he hadn't been there when Abe had came into the picture…it was actually right before I had Alexz and can you say awkward! 'Hey I'm your 18 year old daughter that got knocked up by my ex-fiance who also just left me and doesn't know he has a kid on the way. Nice to meet you!'

"Oh yea you weren't there for that. I finally found my real father. Turns out he's some Turkish mobster that floats between Russia, America, and Turkey. My mom didn't want me around him because his job was so dangerous but he finally decided to say screw it and came and met me."

"Oh," he said sort of stunned.

"Yep. Crazy right? But I guess that's where I get my awesomeness from!" I told him. by now we were pulling into a parking lot. "Wal-Mart? Really that's where we are going? Well I guess it is original."

"Just wait and you'll see," he said with a grin. We got out of the car and made our way into the store. He lead me to the back by one of the main aisles. He went and stood by a baby clothes rack and faced the shoes.

"This is the exact spot where I realized I was madly in love with you," he told me with a grin. I gave him a look like he was insane so continued. "Do you remember when we came here with Paul, he was about 2 and pretty fussy not feeling very well and luckily there weren't very many people. You took your shoes off and he had those slippery shoes on and you just slid with him all around the aisle. As I watched you play with him and make him laugh I was so overwhelmed I honestly thought my chest would burst. You were so good with him and sincere. It was just awesome to see you so relaxed and free and not doing it o impress me but because you honestly cared for Paul. What really got me was when somebody came out of nowhere and you both started to fall and what did you do? You grabbed Paul and twisted so that you fell and hit the big display in the aisle and shielded him so he didn't get hurt. Then to top it off even though I knew that the fall hurt, you shrugged it off and started laughing so that Paul would just laugh it off and not freak out."

"That was the moment you realized you loved me?" I asked shocked.

"Yep. Do you realize what you did was pretty amazing to me? Not many girls would have just randomly started sock sliding in the middle of Wal-Mart, making a scene, just to make MY nephew happy. Most would just complain that he was so fussy and get pissy. Then to top it off you shielded and protected him as if he was your own. It was a really simple thing to watch yet made me realize that I loved you and the way that you took my family in as if they were your own."

"I did not know that," I told him honestly.

"Well that's what tonight is all about, showing you my point of view and my take on certain parts." I was honestly surprised about this one but I guess it does make sense. I was curious as to what was next but I didn't want to let him know that. Plus I didn't really want to go much further into our past…

"So should we go on to the next place?" he asked leading me back to the front of the store.

"Sure," I said walking where he lead me dreading the next place yet curious on where it would be this time.

AN:So not entirely exciting but I promise the next chapter will have a lot more drama and stuff in it!

BTW if you haven't seen it I recommend watching the movie Pitch Perfect! I know a lot of people will be like really? That predictable chick flick? But hey what can I say, it is pretty predictable but it is really funny…I am a little disappointed that two of the scenes in the previews are not in the movie or in the deleted scenes but it was still pretty funny :)
