Grayson got out of bed and walked to the bathroom,she threw some water on her face then brushed her teeth.
She heard Jay cooking breakfast on the phone.
"Dad! What are you cooking?"
"Bacon,eggs and sausage. Also I have orange juice."
Grayson walked into the kitchen and sat down. Jay handed her a plate,then fixed his cup of coffee then sat down with her.
"Grayson,Today you and me can go sledding."
"Sounds like fun. I've never been sledding."
Jay chuckled
"Dad, there's this kid at school. He keeps stalking me. He followed Shane and I to the firehouse one day. His name is Eli Matthews."
"What do you mean Grayson?"
"The kid keeps following Shane and I."
"I'll look into it."
"Erin,I saw you and Jay made up." Kim looked down on the ring
"We did and I'm glad. I'm glad he finally realized what is important. Kyle would want him to live his life and not drinking it away."
Shane sat on the grass looking at his Dad's tombstone. He started crying.
"Hey Dad,It's only been Two months but I miss you and I miss you a lot. Uncle Jay kinda spiraled after you passed away. I love you a lot. I always wear your dog tags on me because they help me keep you with me. Uncle Jay,He misses you a lot. No one knows I'm here because I took the L train but I just wanted to tell you I miss you a lot and I love you. Keep Grandma and Grandpa safe up there. I'll see you again someday."
Shane started walking off.
"I love you Dad." Shane fiddled with his dog tags.
Shane turned around and saw Eli behind him.
"Eli,What are you doing here? And leave me alone."
"I'm just here to visit my grandpa. I'm not doing any harm."
"Not yet." Shane said under his breath.
"Shane,Do you wanna hang out later?"
"No I uh can't. I'm busy. Dinner with my family."
Shane got out his phone and texted Erin.
(S-Shane E-Erin)
S-Can you come pick me up from the Cemetery?
E-Yeah. I can what's wrong?
S- Um,Let's see I'm being stalked. Just get here quick.
E-Shane,I'll be there in a few. promise.
Erin got there in no time like she promised.
"Thanks Erin."
"No problem Shane."
"You wanted to come see him right?"
"Yeah. I miss him. Every day."
"Dad,So you are telling me My Mom was the crazy bitch who wanted you to talk to no other girls."
"Yeah. Pretty Much. She was always jealous,I was Captain of the soccer,basketball and baseball team. Girls was drooling over me. But I uh loved your Mom. We just lost contact and I'm sorry for doing that. Gracie, Be Strong,Be Brave and Be a Hero. That's my motto. You are strong. If you ever get pregnant in High school that's your ass."
The both of them started laughing.
"I won't Dad. If it's okay with you Dad. I wanna become a Police Officer and help kids like me and Shane. If Shane gets someone pregnant in High School. God help me if he does. I'll help raise his baby. I know He wants to go into the Army."
"He gets a girl pregnant and that's his ass."
Grayson laughed.
"Dad,Thanks."
"What are you saying thanks for kid?"
"Thanks for taking me in. I know you were busy with Shane and you took me in. Thank you."
"Grayson Noelle,You are my daughter. I'll always love you. Besides I need a girl in the house. You keep the house straight. When it was just Shane and I. We'd um just keep the house dirty. I love having you and Shane around. Someday I'll adopt him. And Erin will Adopt you if you are okay with that."
Grayson picked up her plate.
"Dad,Are you two back together?"
"Grayson,It's complicated but yes we are. And I'd like for you to have a relationship with her."
"I want a relationship with her. Mine with my Mom was never great dad. It never was. I love you Dad."
"Erin,Do you love Uncle Jay?"
"Yeah. I do Shane."
"Dad!" yelled Grayson
Jay was sitting on the couch. He got up and ran to the room.
"What happened?"
"There's a spider right there." Gracie was standing on the bed.
Jay ran to the kitchen and grabbed the broom and killed the spider.
"You are killing me kid."
The door to the cabin opened and Will walked in.
Jay heard the door open. He grabbed his gun and walked by the door.
"Damn you Will. You just scared the living hell out of me."
"What's up brother? Who are you here with?"
"Grayson. Her and I are spending some time together. Why are you here?"
"I wanted to come stay and relax. I have the weekend off."
Grayson came out her room, and ran towards Will and hugged him
"Uncle Will!"
"Hey Gracie. How's my favorite niece?"
"I'm your only niece."
Will looked at Jay then back at Grayson
"Oh wait yes you are. I have two nephews, who are a pain in the ass."
"So I have cousins?" Grayson looked confused
"Yeah, your Uncle Tyler has two boys. Jude and Luke. One's 15 and the other is your age."
Grayson looked at Jay.
"Oh yeah Will,How's the boys doing?"
"Great,Tyler asked about you. I said you were busy with Shane and Grayson. Ryan wants to see you, and well Travis wants too also."
Someone called Jay's phone.
"Hello? Who is this?"
"It's Tyler, I was wondering if you'd wanna go get some drinks. Jay,It's been a while and I wanna see my little brother."
"Tyler,I'm in Wisconsin with my daughter and Will. Maybe next weekend."
"Alright Little Bro. The boys miss you."
Erin sat on the couch looking at bridesmaids dresses. She picked out a pretty lilac purple for the dresses. The colors were Lilac and Grey. After she did that She looked at her Dress. She looked at a Strapless Sweetheart neckline that had a grey belt on it, with a ball gown princess type bottom. Shane sat in his room playing Xbox. He just played call of duty.
Grayson sat in the room watching tv.
"Pumpkin,Pack your stuff. We are leaving tomorrow."
"Alright Dad."
She got up and packed her things then layed back in her bed and fell asleep.
