Phil and Charlie packed up their stuff and headed back home. They'd had an amazing time and had really gotten closer. They arrived at the apartment and decided to see how John and Jaycee were doing. Phil took Charlie's hand as they knocked on the door.

"Well, you guys are home." John said opening the door. "How was the trip?"

"It was good." Charlie replied as they walked in. "How was the honeymoon?"

"It was nice to be alone and in a nice hotel." John replied. "But we had some visitors after we got back and needless to say it wasn't the best visit."

"Who visited you?" Phil asked.

"Mom and dad." Jaycee said walking into the living room from the bedroom. "And they weren't real happy about John and I being married and having a baby."

"Close minded assholes."

"Watch your mouth."

"What?" He said looking at his sister and girlfriend.

"That's our parents Phil. Even though they aren't happy about the baby or my marriage, they are still our parents. And hopefully they will come around." Jaycee replied. "I think they were just disappointed that I didn't wait. They expected so much from me and they feel I have ruined my life. But I don't see it like that. I can still accomplish everything I wanted too. I just get to do it with John and our child."

"Disappointed or not, they should support you. The way they acted is total bullshit. And I will never treat my kids that way."

"Phil, it's just how they are. I'm sure they will come around." Charlie replied.

"It's just they want too much out of Jaycee. They have always tried to make her life the way they wanted it. Not what she wanted."

"I'm right here and can you hear you know."

"Chill out. I'm on your side. But they could let you live your life."

"Well it's how they are. Maybe they will come around. But I'm not going to focus on that." She smiled. "I have my husband and baby to think about. They are my main concern. So, how was the bed and breakfast? Was it romantic?"

"You really want to know?" Charlie asked

"I don't want details but did you have a good time?"

"We had a great time and we got presents." She said going to get the antique baby rattle. "This for you and the baby." She said handing the box to her.

Jaycee smiled as she opened it. "Oh My God, it's beautiful." She said holding up the silver baby rattle.

"That's not all we got." Phil said. "You should show her."

Charlie smiled. "Phil bought me this beautiful antique wedding dress."

"Oh My God. It's gorgeous. Does this mean we're closer to setting a date?" Jaycee asked.

"No. It just means I have a beautiful dress for when the time is right."

"Right." Jaycee smiled.

"Well, John and I are going to run some errands." Phil said getting up. "We will leave you ladies to talk." He motioned for John to follow him.

John kissed Jaycee while Phil kissed Charlie and they headed out. "What's going on, Phil?"

"I want us to go speak with my parents. They're still in town right?"

"Yes they are."

"Then I want to see them."

"Do you honestly think you going off on them is going to make anything better?"

"Jaycee has bent over backwards to be the perfect daughter and the perfect student. She deserves to be happy and you make her happy. She can still accomplish all her dreams but it'll be better for her because she'll have you there with her. And my little niece or nephew. It'll all work out."

"I hope so." John said as they pulled into the hotel. They got out and headed to the room.

Phil knocked on the door and waited for his parents to open it. "Phil, what are you doing here? We were coming to see you tomorrow." Damon said to him. He then noticed John behind him. "What are you both doing here?"

"We need to talk."

"Come in then." He stepped aside letting them in. "Talk about what?"

"About Jaycee."

"I don't see how it's your business son. It's between us and your sister."

"Jaycee's my sister so that makes it my business. And John is her husband so that makes it his. She's always been the perfect kid and done everything you've ever wanted her to do. She's lived on the path you wanted for her her whole life. And now that she wants to do something for herself, something that makes her truly happy, you write her off because it's outside of your plan for her. Jaycee is mature and smart and capable of amazing things. And John sees that. He encourages that in her and she's so happy and at peace when you even say his name. And he loves her. My niece or nephew is proof of that. And despite the differences we've had in the past, he's a good guy and the best person imaginable for Jaycee. Now the way I see it, you've got two choices. You can be the great parents you've always been or you can write her off. But if you write her off, you lose her, your grandchild and me too."

"This isn't about the path we have laid out for your sister and what plans we had for her. It's about her throwing her life away. She has so much potential in this life. She has the potential to do great things. But not with a husband and a child right now. She is a freshman in college. She should finish college first and then get married and have a baby." Damon replied.

"Philip, the point your father is making is that Jaycee could do great things in this life. And we hate for her to throw it away because she couldn't or wouldn't say no when John got her into bed." Alexia said turning to face him. "We know all about the type of person you are. You slept with every girl in high school. Most of the girls are ruined now. And then you set your sights on my daughter. A good girl who was going places in life. She had her whole life ahead of her. And because you seduced her into bed during your last year of high school, you have ruined my daughter's life."

"You're both narrow minded assholes who wouldn't know the truth if it bit you in the ass. Stay away from me, stay away from my sister and my niece or nephew if all you're going to do is throw accusations around like water. Yeah John was kind of a man whore. But Jaycee changed him. She brought out the good in him and he got her to open up and be herself. They bring out the best in each other. But you're too stupid to see it." He said as he turned to go. Then he turned and looked at them as he got to the door. "Oh by the way, Charlie and I have been living together for the last six months and we have sex pretty much every chance we get. So, I'm really no better than John now am I?"

"Philip Jack Brooks." Damon said to his son. "We are your parents and you will not speak to us like that."

"Dad, you both need to get your head out of your asses. Jaycee is going to do everything she wants. And John and the baby will be a part of that. And John will support her. I hope you will realize that." He walked out the door with John following behind. He couldn't believe his parents. They were being unreasonable about things. And the ones that would be hurt were Jaycee and her baby.
