The next three days went by so slow. I stayed at the hospital with Addie. I went home to sleep at night at Addie's request and showered the next morning and then I'd back by her side. She had decided not to name the baby until she knew who the father was. She also refused to fill out the birth certificate. I really hadn't talked to my parents since the baby was born. Mom refused to come see the baby until she knew whether or not it was her grandson.
I was sitting in Addie's room next to her bed. She was holding the baby. We were waiting for Dr. Baylor to come in and tell us if I was the father. It seemed like hours before she finally came in. "Good afternoon," she said when she walked in.
"Good afternoon," Addie and I replied.
"Ok so I have the results from the DNA test."
"Is Nate the father of my baby?" Addie asked.
"Yes. Nate is the father of this beautiful baby boy," Dr. Baylor said. "Now as far as your healing and everything I think you can go home today."
"Thank you Dr. Baylor," Addie said.
"You're welcome. Now I'll need to see you in six weeks and no sex in those six weeks," Dr. Baylor said.
"No problem," I said.
"Ok. Goodbye," said Dr. Baylor.
"Good bye," Addie and I said.
"So what are we going to name him?" I'm asked.
"Well I kind of already had a name picked out."
"Ok. What is it?"
"Jordan Nathaniel Cullen," she said.
I considered it and then said, "I like it." I stood up and walked over to the baby and said, "Jordan Nathaniel Cullen."
It took about four hours to fill out the birth certificate, get it certified, and get everything together and to go home. Addie's parents had agreed to let Addie and I go to my house first. When we got to my house I helped her get out and I got Jordan out and carried him into the house. I had called Mom and told her that the baby was my son and that we were coming over to the house. She said she'd be ready for us. Mom met us at the door and Addie walked into the living room and sat down like I told her to do and I walked in behind her and sat down next to her on the couch. I sat the car seat on the floor and unbuckled Jordan and took him out. I handed him to Addie and we sat there. The tension that was in the room felt like there was a giant elephant in a little box. Mom kept crossing and uncrossing her legs and moving in the chair she was sitting in. Addie would rock back in forth with Jordan and then sit still and then rock some more and then sit still. Finally Morgan and Justin came in the front door. "Hey Mom," I heard Morgan say.
"Hi Sweetie. How'd your doctor's appointment go?" Mom said when Morgan and Justin walked into the living room.
"Hi Momma. The appointment went great. Dr. Baylor said that the baby and I are both doing great."
"Aw, Sweetie that's great."
"Yeah, so is the baby Nate's or not?" Morgan asked.
"Very settle Morgan," I said.
"Well I want to know if I'm an aunt or not," she said.
"Yeah, you're an aunt," I said.
"Awesome," she said and got all excited and came over to me and hugged me and then hugged Addie the best she could with Addie holding Jordan. "Can I hold him?" she asked.
"Sure," Addie said. Morgan took Jordan from Addie and sat down in the other chair.
"Aw, he's so cute," she said cooing at him. "What's his name?" she asked never looking away from the baby.
"Jordan Nathaniel Cullen," Addie said.
"Hi Jordan, I'm your Aunt Morgan. Yes I am," Morgan said to him. She was so caught up in him that I didn't think she'd ever give him back but eventually she did hand him back Addie.
"Nate we'd better go so that I can get everything in it's place at my house," Addie said to me when Morgan handed Jordan back to her.
"Ok. Mom we're going to go. I'll probably eat with Addie tonight so don't wait for me for supper," I said. I put Jordan back in his carrier. Addie stood up and picked up the diaper bag and I picked up the carrier. I bent down and kissed Mom on the cheek and said, "I'll see you later."
"Bye Sweetheart," she said and Addie and I left.
I put the carrier in the back seat of my truck and buckled Jordan in. I helped Addie into the passenger seat and then got in on the driver's side. I started the truck and backed out of the driveway. I started to drive toward La Push. "I don't think your mom likes me," Addie said.
"What?! Where did that come from?" I asked.
"Nate she wouldn't even talk to me. I don't even think she likes Jordan."
"Baby, don't say that. It's just going to take her a while to get used to the fact that she's a grandmother and the fact that we lied to her. Don't let what she does affect the future," I said and grabbed her hand and held it.
"She still could have at least made an attempt to talk to me or to hold Jordan or at least take interest in him."
"Don't worry. Just relax and eventually it will all fall into place."
"I guess your right."
"Of course I'm right," I said and we rode in silence the rest of the way.

After Nate and Addie left I decided to talk to Mom about what she thought of the whole thing between them. Justin and I sat on the couch where Nate and Addie had been sitting. "Mom," I said. "How do you feel about the whole thing with Nate and Addie?"
"I knew something was up when she looked like she was bigger than you. I should've known. A mother knows when something is going on with her baby. I've failed as a mother."
"Mom, you didn't fail as a mother," I said.
"Nate was lying to me. He knew Addie was pregnant way before he told us. Not only that but your pregnant. I mean a good mother does not have teenage parents for children. It's the bad mothers that have teenage parents as children."
"Mom I didn't know you felt that way," I said with tears in my eyes.
"Oh Sweetie, don't cry. It's not your fault."
"Yes it is. If Justin and I had been more careful then you would have one teenage parent for a child," I said. Tears were streaming down my face. Justin wrapped his arms around me and I turned and buried my face in his chest.
"Sweetheart I'm sorry," I heard Mom say and then I heard her get up and walk out of the room.
"Baby are you ok?" Justin asked.
"Yeah I will be," I said and we sat there just holding each other.
Sorry it took so long to update. I hope that you like it. R&R
