"I just think that she's over reacting! She's upset because she messed up again and feels like were all disappointed in here. So instead she's blaming it on you!" Jason's voice echoed through out the kitchen as he spoke to Randy on the phone.
"And she says that I'm the one who needs to grow up? Excuse me but I actually admit to my mistake!" Randy replied back, his voice holding a hint of impatience "I mean, yeah, I should have realized who I was fucking-"
"Ahem" Jason cleared his throat "I'm still her step-father!"
"Err…I mean screwing?"
"Not quiet…"
"Banging?"
"No!"
"Sleeping with?"
"Much better!"
"Anyways as I was saying I know I should have realized who I was fu-I mean sleeping with, but still I'll admit that I drank way to much that night after Niki found me and started talking to me, and I shouldn't have slept with anyone, but shit happens man!" Randy let out a deep sigh "Are you still there man?"
"Please tell me you used a condom…I mean don't get me wrong, I love Matthew with all my heart but I don't think were ready for any more Randy jrs!"
"Yes Jason, I did use a condom." Randy rolled his eyes
"Maybe I'll get Chloe to change her mind about you watching Matt while she's at school! I mean your still suspended for awhile and Matt misses you! Plus you'll be able to get back on Chloe's good side! You still like her right!?"
"I'll always love her Jason, you know that!"
"I think she's waking up now, I'll call you back tonight!"
"Okay Jason" Randy hung up quickly after Jason ended the call.
"Hi Jason!" Chloe's bright smile surprised Jason as she happily skipped into the kitchen.
"Good after noon Chloe!" Jason smiled back tossing her the baby monitor "He just fell asleep a little bit ago, he didn't sleep much this morning so he should be out for a while."
"You're a life saver!" Chloe giggled hugging her step-dad "Who were you on the phone with?"
"Oh just an old friend…"
"Do I know him?"
"No" Jason lied "Not at all!"
"Okay…" Chloe eyed him suspiciously.
"So I've been thinking…" Jason watched as Chloe finished making her self some lunch and sat down across from him at the island.
"About what?" Chloe took a sip of her water, eyes still focused on his face.
"I'm about to make you a deal."
"Please no lawyer bull shit"
"I promise there is none!"
"Fine, then tell me."
"I will pay your tuition for college all four years if you allow Randy to watch Matthew while your at school. You'll have less to worry about, less stress about money, and you'll know you have a reliable baby sitter! Plus, I'll hook you up with a part time job at the new law firm I'm opening up here in San Antonio!"
Chloe stared at her step-father, a hint of humor shining through her green eyes. She couldn't help but laugh loudly in his face. "Since when have you been on his team? I thought you hated him! Now all of a sudden you want to buy your way back into my life while helping him out with being able to see his kid?"
"Chloe I agree with him about this! He needs to be able to see his child more! We can't just keep keeping Matt from him! He's just as much Randy's as he is yours!"
"Just let me think about this okay?" Chloe ran a hand through her light brown hair.
"Fine. I need an answer by tonight though. School starts in two days and Randy needs time to pack."
"Where's he going to stay?" Chloe raised a curious eyebrow.
"With your mother and I. He's actually a very nice guy Chloe!"
Chloe slowly bit her bottom lip. "I'll think about it okay?"
"Okay" Jason smiled happily while he proudly walked out of the kitchen. He knew that face, and he definitely just won his case.

"How does this work?!" Chloe groaned standing outside of her car with Jessica beside her.
"How am I suppose to know?! Randy left it here because he said this one has better support for Matt!" Jessica looked around the stroller looking for anything that would make it open.
"Damn bastard! He always tries to fuck up my life!" Chloe gritted her teeth as she kicked the side of it.
Jessica and her watched in amazement as the sides popped up just waiting to be snapped into place.
"I guess it's built for people who have anger management…" Jessica said a loud as Chloe laughed softly.
"I guess so…."
"Now all we need to do is get the little cutie in it!"
"He's not cute!" Chloe snapped picking Matthew up from the car seat and placing him gently in his stroller. "He's handsome!"
"He's both!" Jess let out a laugh, walking towards the mall entrance with Chloe behind her.
"If anybody asks he's our little brother!" Chloe whispered to Jessica quietly
"My god if your going to be a mom Chloe, at least be a proud one!" Jessica shook her head in disapproval at her best friend.
Chloe stuck out her lower lip slightly following behind Jessica. She was proud…just in different ways then most people.

"Matt come on!" Chloe yelled getting more frustrated by the second. "Stop fussing and finish eating!"
"Chloe relax! He's only going to get more fussy if he knows you're stressed out! The key is to just stay calm!"
"Fuck staying calm! I'm so god damn sick of him! He acts like a miniature version of his fucked up father!" Chloe threw the bottle on the ground, startling Matt.
"Chloe! Watch your mouth and give that baby to someone else right now before you hurt him!" Shawn ordered his daughter sternly.
"Fine!" Chloe roughly handed Jason the now screaming baby. "Tell that jackass he can help out with him! The sooner he gets here the better!"
"Fine. All you need to do is call him" Jason responded, a victorious smile spread across his face.
Chloe turned her head towards Shawn "May I please be excused?"
"You may" Shawn nodded his head quickly
Chloe mumbled a quick 'thank you' before standing from her seat and walking upstairs.
She punched in the all too familiar numbers onto her phone. She stared at the numbers on her screen, hesitantly she hit the send button. She was scared to hear his voice, scared to ask for help, and better yet, scared for him to be back in her life, she knew all to well he had the power to charm her into doing anything for him, and that would include falling in love with him.
"I never thought this number would pop up on my phone again…" Randy spoke in a deep voice.
"Yeah well don't get to use it to bud, it'll probably be the last time too!" Chloe hissed angrily
"Damn someone's got a serious case of PMS!" Randy couldn't resist smirking as she breathed out deeply through her nose. She was definitely in bad mood.
"Listen, I'm letting you watch Matt while I go to school okay? And before you get all full of yourself and start saying 'I told you so', Jason talked me into it. Consider yourself lucky Orton!"
Randy fought the urge to push her buttons, he was thankful for this opportunity, and he wasn't going to mess it up now! "Okay. I'll be there on Monday first thing in the morning!"
"Great" Chloe's voice dripped with sarcasm as she abruptly ended the call.
Life was about to get a lot more interesting!
