Justin

"Okay who's ready?" I asked as I noticed we all finished our breakfast. Jake who was sat on my lap ate a little bit of his pancakes. Poor baby. I could feel the heat from his cheek that was pressed against the side of my neck. He's got a temperature.

Jason was conversing with Jade, laughing and nodding to her babble about stuff like dolls and dresses and the colour pink. Her usually conversation with people. I smiled, in the few hours I've seen them together their bond is strong. They both look so alike, even act the same. It's crazy!

Jake jolted again coughing into his hand. I grabbed a wet wipe and wiped his hand. "My poor baby." I whispered. I looked up to see Jason smiling at us in adoration and I blushed.

"Okay let's go." I said getting up with Jake in my arms still. Jason stood up and let Jade slide out of the booth. He picked up the tray and walked over to the bin, throwing the rubbish.

"Is he okay?" Jason asked from my side. He was holding Jade's hand as she swung it back and fourth like she does with mine. I nodded. "He'll be okay. You just gotta give him medicine. You went to the doctors right?" I asked. "Of course." He nodded.

We got both kids into the their seats and hopped in the front. Jason pulled out of the McDonald's restaurant parking and onto the road. "Okay it's 11:45am. You guys must be tired. Did you want me to drop you off at home or come to mine?" He asked, his eyes trained on the road.

"Uh do you mind if we go to yours for a bit?" I suggested. He smiled and nodded. "No of course." He said and turned left into another street. As for the next hour Jason and I talked about my touring and his successful club he has going. I'm proud of him. He always said he'd open up a club and now he has.

"Okay we're here." Jason announced and I looked at the house. My eyes widen. "Are you serious? You live here?" I asked. He looked at me confused. "What? Yeah?" He said, his eyebrows furrowing. "Jase! Look that's my house pointing to the house next door." I explained smiling. A wide grin spread across his lips. "Babe we live next door to each other! Now that explains why no ones been there every time Jake and I went to meet the people that lived there. It was youse!" He said. Wow who would of thought. "Yeah!"

"Now that I know that. Do you mind if I just go get Jade and I a change of clothes?" I asked. "No by all means Jay." He said. We got out and helped the children out of their seats. "Daddy! Look we live next door!" Jade said pointing to our house. "I know sweetie! Isn't that cool?" I asked and she nodded. "Okay let's go get a change of clothes then we'll be back." I said leading Jade to our house. "Babe, I'm gonna give Jake his medicine and put him to bed, aight?" He said. "Yeah, we'll ever back." I nodded.

"Daddy! I can't believe we live next door!" Jade said still smiling. "Okay baby, I know. Me too. Let's go give you a quick bath and a change of clothes." I said walking up the stairs with her. "Okay make it quick. We're gonna spend the rest of the day at Papa's." I said. I helped her washed her hair and body. I let her play around for a minute to go get her clothes ready. A pair of grey Nike sweats and a pink shirt. Casual.

"Okay Bub, let's go." I said to her. I wrapped the towel around her and brought her into the room. "Out these on babe." I said, helping her into her clothes. "Done." She smiled.

"Okay imma have a quick shower." I said and she nodded. She was occupied by her iPad. After showering I slipped on a pair of Calvins and grey sweatpants and a plain white v neck. Similar to Jade's attire.

"Okay let's go Jadey." I said. She got up with her iPad and walked over to the door. "Hey you can take the rest of the day off. I'm just going to be next door." I told my body guard. "Okay, thank you sir." He said and I nodded.

"Can I knock daddy?" Jade asked as we walked up to the door of Jason's house. I nodded. She knocked and stepped back. Few seconds later Jason opened the door smiling. "Hello again." He greeted. "Hi papa!" Jade said. "Hey babe." I said pecking his lips. "Eww." Jade said making a face. I laughed. "That's right, eww. No kissing til your married." Jason said seriously. Jade's eyes widen but she giggled. "Okay warning. We have a dog." He said letting us in. I looked around to see the home decor felt homey.

"It feels homey." I commented. "Yeah it does. Mum and dad picked everything out." He said. I heard laughing throughout the house. I raised an eyebrow. "Oh that's Kieran." He said causally. Kieran? "He's Alex's son and first child." He explained. He led us to the kitchen. I walked in to see Alex, a boy that looked like Alex and a very pregnant woman. They were all laughing like a family. Cute

"Uh guys Justin and Jade are here." Jason announced introducing us. "Omg Hi!" The woman greeted about to get up. "No. No. Stay there. I'll come to you." I said stopping her. She smiled and sat back. I walked over to her. "Hi, I'm Justin." I greeted to her hugging her as best I could as her pregnant stomach got in the way. "Hello, I'm Katherine. Call me Kate. That's morons wife and his mother." She said pointing to Alex who was pouting and the little boy. "Hey! That's not nice." Alex whined. She simply shrugged her shoulders. He huffed. "Mama's being a meaning Ki." He said to the little boy, who I'm guessing is Kieran. "No, she's not daddy." He giggled. "I thought you were on my side." Alex said betrayed. "You didn't give me ice cream last night." Kieran said and resumed back to his colouring. Cheeky, I love it.

"Anyways hey Drew, this Kieran." Alex said ruffling his sons hair. "Hi mister." Kieran waved. "Call me Justin." I smiled and he nodded. "Guys this is Jade, my daughter." Jason said from behind. He was leaning against the counter with Jade. Jade smiled and waved. "Hi!" She grinned.

"Hi pretty girl. Come here." Kate said. Jason put her down and Jade walked over to her. "Aww she's such a beautiful girl!" Kate cooed, brushing a loose strand behind her ear. Jade blushed. "She really looks like you Jase." She said. She really does.

"Imma give Justin a tour of the house. By the way he lives next door!" Jason said grabbing my hand. "Jadey wanna come?" Jason asked her. She shook her head. Kieran had let her colour with him. Aww. Cousins.

"Okay so this is the main living room." Jason said showing me the room. "It's nice." I complimented. "Thanks, so downstairs we basically just have the kitchen, dining room, main living room and bathroom. And upstairs we have the rooms." He said now leading me up the stairs. I smiled seeing photo frames on the wall. Some of which includes me.

One frame caught my eye. It was a collage type. 5 photographs. I ran my fingers against it. The first one was when was when we were like kids. 5 I think. We had just started school. Jason invited me to his birthday. We were playing with water running around smiling. We were best friends.

The next was when were 17, I had just finished my tour. We were on the porch swing. I had really missed Jason. We were boyfriends.

The middle one had a photo of Jason proposing. It was New Years Eve. Almost midnight. Clock stroked 12, the firework went crazy. Jason kissed me and told me to look up. There the fireworks were put into words. "WILL YOU MARRY ME?"

The bottom left was on our wedding day. It's was beautiful. Our vows were precious words. The decorations were amazing. Everything was outstanding. I loved it.

Finally the last one was of Jason kneeling down kissing my baby bump. It was a black and white photo. The photo was taken from the side. The light coming from behind us. Illuminating our figures. It was a photoshoot picture.

"Babe..." I heard taking me out of my memories. I looked up at Jason to see him concerned. "You okay?" He asked grabbing my hand. "Yeah." I said. "This is really beautiful." I said, a stray tear falling. Jason was quick to wipe it.

"Aww babe." He said and pulling me into his chest. "I created it after I moved out. I found the pictures in the boxes." He said. Aww those memories.

"C'mon, I wanna show you the rest." He said pulling me with him up the rest of the stairs. "Okay so this is my room." He said opening the door. The room had a king size bed in the middle. Black, white and grey theme colours. It was very tidy. Well that's changed Jason was always messy.

He then showed to another door. "This is Alex and Kate's." He said but didn't open it. Walking to another door he opened it. "This is Kieran's room." He gestured. It was cute. Red and white theme colours. A window with a seating bench with books scattered. Two beds.

"This is Jake's room." He said and opened the door quietly. I spotted Jake sleeping on the bottom bed. This room also had two beds. There was a boxing bag hanging and a small basketball court. He must be sporty.

"Okay so this is the second best room in the house." He said standing in front of two double white doors. What's the first? "First is the kitchen because there's food." He said. Talking out loud again.. He opened it and my eyes widen. "Wow." I said amazed. It was a game room. "Yeah I know. I had it installed when I moved in. Alex was living here first." He explained. I nodded. It had a two lane bowling alley. A movie theatre section and games, like basketball goal game and much more.

"I'm in love." I said looking around the room. It had neon lights lighting the room. "Okay so let's go back downstairs." He suggested. I nodded.

After going downstairs he showed me the backyard. It had healthy green grass, patio leading it the pool. All in all, this house is life goals.

"I really love this house Jase." I said. "My mum and dad bought it for Alex and I." He said, sitting down on the swinging chair. "But at the time only Alex was living here and I was with you." He said. Oh. I sat down with him.

I leaned forward and attached my lips to his. His tongue immediately poking my lips. I opened my mouth a bit to let him in. Our tongues danced with together. Jason had his hand on my cheek and mine was at the back of his neck, pulling on the little hairs.

In the middle of our make out. Something jumped on me. Pulled away from Jason in shocked. "Oh my gosh, sorry! Zeus down boy." Jason ordered. The dog was licking y, face excitedly. "No it's fine. Hello boy." I said now patting the dog.

"Sorry Justin." Alex said walking over to us grabbing Zeus. "He was whining." He said. "It's algood. He's cute." I dismissed. "This is Zeus, Jason got him so Jake could grow up with him. They're basically best friends." He explained and I nodded.
