Jason didn't even know how he returned home that day. His mind wasn't there. The ex Saber kept picturing the last twelve hours over and over again. Jason went directly to the fridge and pulled out a beer. He took one sip and threw the drink into the wall.

Chardonnay looked at Jason strangely. He was dodging her calls and staying out all night and she squinted her eyes. "Is that lipstick", she sneered looking at his jersey. She then touched the object in question and laughed. "Oh…that's ketchup, my bad how's Melanie", she stated kissing him on the cheek.

Jason looked at her and frowned. Why was he with her? "Um…she's hanging in there…it got too late went to a hotel…look I'm beat Chard can we do this interrogation some other time", he asked moving past her obviously dismissing her.

She grabbed his arm to stop him. It worked and she jumped into his arms and kissed him. Jason wanted to pour out all his anger and lust for his ex into this and just forget about her but he couldn't. "Look I have a lot on my mind Chardonnay", he stated pushing her away.

She narrowed her eyes in concern. "Why am I feeling like this has little to do with Melanie and a whole lot to do with something else".

He looked down at her. Jason started to say something but thought better of it. He opened and closed his mouth like a fish.

Chardonnay heart tightened in response. "Just tell me Jason", she sighed.

The trip home was one filled with silence. As soon as they got there Melanie stormed out of the car. Derwin sighed and raced after her. "I love you Melanie Barnett Davis", Derwin vowed finally catching up with her.

She looked away as tears fell. "I wish I could believe that…I really want to believe that".

"Then believe it baby…you're the love of my life", he promised reaching for her hands.

Melanie wiped her eyes and looked away. They were now at their home and she was in the guest room looking for her suit case that she brought to San Diego. She finally found it and smiled in victory only for it to be thrown toward the farthest wall. She jumped and placed her hands on her stomach. "Derwin", Mel hissed. "You're not making this easy and the doctor said I…"

"I know what the doctor said and therefore that only stands to reason why you're not leaving", he yelled looking her dead in the eyes.

She stared back unwilling to compromise until she huffed and left to go to their bed room. Once there she leaned against the door and cried. She didn't know what to do. Derwin was trying but she didn't think she could take being hurt by him again. She loved him but know she had to put someone else first. She slumped towards the bed and undressed before putting on his jersey without thinking. She then proceeded to climb into bed.

Derwin was cleaning up from the other night when his door bell rung followed by the door opening. He frowned when Jason came in and slumped on his couch. "You do know that you don't live here", he asked sarcastically.

Jason looked up from the floor to stare at Derwin. "Did you know", he asked quietly. Jason face was unreadable and Derwin couldn't remember ever seeing him like that.

Derwin frowned in response. "Did I know what man", he asked genuinely worried.

"My son…Ding Dong I have a son", he stated trying not to fall apart.

"Dude….Chardonnay's pregnant…that's what's up", Derwin congratulated.

Jason squatted away from his hand. "No, its Kelly's and mine. The baby is two years old nut case".

Derwin plopped next to Jason. "Damn", he sighed. "That's fucked up but take it from me, you don't want to miss another moment in that kids life. You and Kelly can work out ya'll shit later but Brit brat and this little boy needs ya'll. You need to get Brittany from your parents and you need to fix your family and I'm a do the same. I know how much you love Kelly…yea that shit was bold but life's too short. I almost lost my wife and I might still lose her. I lost my little man and me and Mel's baby is hanging on by a thread."

Jason looked extremely uncomfortable. "Eh why do I feel like I'm watching Dr. Phil.", he asked.

Derwin laughed and then turned serious. "Did you tell Chardonnay yet", he asked.

Jason laughed. "You are aware that her black ass would flip a script on me quicker than white rice", he stated.

"You have a point", Derwin smirked.

Jason glared at him.

"Well go home and make sure you're wife knows how much you love her and then just spit it out. The truth will set you free my man".

"Oh and how that work out for you…hey yoooo", he said getting off that grown ass couch. "I'm going home and chillin with the wife…I haven't even met the kid plus when Brittany gets home tomorrow I'm taking her to her mother's anyway".

"Wait you know where Kelly's staying at", he asked bemused.

Jason smirked. "Yeah, I did take her home last night", he stated in a bored tone.

Derwin narrowed his eyes. "Brandon called Melanie, Kelly didn't come home last night….wait Jason…really", he asked shaking his head.

Jason smiled and mumbled something about getting home to the misses.

Derwin couldn't believe it but then again he could, they were crazy about each other. He remembered when Kelly convinced Mel to buy a stripper pole and smiled to himself. She was too hot on that thing.

Derwin couldn't believe Kelly had done that. He felt bad for his friend but he needed to handle his own problems before he could even help out. He needed to figure out a way to get them back and figured a romantic surprise could work. He just needed to get some things before she awoke.
