JJ's POV:

Kie's pregnancy was going by pretty fast, at least for me. She looked so beautiful with her baby bump. I didn't think it was possible for me to love my girlfriend more than I already did but seeing her grow our child made me fall more and more in love with her.

We also found out that we were having a boy and I couldn't be more excited. I was going to give our son the childhood I never got and I don't mean living through my kid and making him do shit that I didn't get to do. I mean that I get to teach him to play sports and he can play whatever he wants but I'll get to go cheer for him at his games and maybe even help coach his team.

I'll get to help him with homework, well that might be more Kie or Pope once he gets older. But I'll get to give him advice and we can kick Kie out of the house for the weekend and send her on some spa retreat and have a boy's weekend. I dream about this a lot and I've told Kie and she finds it adorable.

She was getting to that uncomfortable part of her pregnancy where she couldn't sleep without back pain and none of her clothes fit so she pretty much lived in mine. She went into labor a few weeks later. Her water broke right as we were getting ready for bed. Kie, being the strong woman she is wanted a natural birth and I supported it, but I hated seeing her in so much pain.

I texted the pogues and her parents to let them all know she was in labor. Kie had told everyone ahead of time that she didn't want anyone at the hospital. I stayed up all night with her and ten hours later, she gave birth to our son.

They placed him on her chest and she was crying. She looked at him and said, "He's perfect"

"Hi, I'm your mommy" She said to our son

"You did so good. I love you" I said kissing her head as I softly rested my hand on our sons back

She looked up at me and said, "I love you so much, Jayge"

I kissed her lips and they were cleaning Kie up and then I cut the cord and they cleaned our son and then I got to hold him. Kie started crying even more and took pictures.

I placed our son back on Kie's chest for more skin-to-skin. The nurse asked if we had a name. Kie looked at me and nodded her head yes.

"Liam Jackson Maybank" I said

"That's adorable" She smiled

A few days later, we got to go home and I was carrying Liam out to the car in his carseat. Kie took a video and sent it in the group chat and said: hot dad walk out of the hospital

Sarah: I can't wait for John B to do the hot dad walk

John B: The only walk I'll do right now is the hot dog walk

Cleo: Hot dad alert!!!

Pope: I'm surprised he knows how to strap a baby in there

JJ: Hey, we all know Kie was the one to strap Liam in

We got home and Kie went and took a shower leaving me alone with Liam. I took him out of his carseat and held him while I sat on the couch. He was asleep in my arms. He was so tiny. I looked at all his small features and thought about all the things I'd get to teach him and experience with him.

Kie came out about thirty minutes later and said, "Awww, look at my cute boys"

"Look at my sexy baby momma" I said back

She rolled her eyes and said, "Shut up, I feel disgusting and I still look pregnant"

"You're beautiful, always will be no matter what... Come here"

She came and sat next to me on the couch and I pulled her into my arms and she rested her head on my chest.

"I know we didn't plan to have a baby right now, but you getting pregnant is the biggest miracle. Thank you for making me a dad" I said thinking about how our son was only a few days old and I couldn't imagine life without him now

Liam was now five years old and we also had two other kids. Liam decided he wanted to play soccer and I loved soccer and used to play so I signed up to help coach. Liam would ask me to go play soccer with him outside. I loved helping him practice.

"Daddy, why don't you have a mommy or daddy like mommy does?" Liam asked as we were outside kicking the ball back and forth

"I have a mom and dad, but I don't talk to them"

"Why?"

"My mom left me when I was a baby"

"How come?" He asked surprised

I really didn't even know the answer myself. My dad always told me it was because she didn't love me.

"She didn't want to take care of me so she left me with my dad"

"That's mean... My mommy takes care of me" He smiled

"Yes, she does and she loves you and would never leave you"

"How come you don't talk to your dad?"

"My dad was mean to me, he used to hit me" I said telling him the truth as I watched his eyes widen and I realized maybe I shouldn't have told my five-year-old son that

He gave me the biggest hug and said, "I'm sorry your daddy was mean to you. You're the best daddy"

It brought tears to my eyes and I picked my son up and hugged him and said, "Thank you"

I put him down and asked, "Want to go get ice cream at the beach?"

"Yeah" He said excitedly

I ran inside quickly to grab my wallet and I told Kie we were going to get ice cream. She smiled and said, "Have fun" as she held our three-month-old daughter

I got Liam in the backseat in his carseat and I drove to the beach where we got out and walked in the sand to get ice cream. I let him pick his flavor and I got one too. He looked at me and said, "I'm scared for our first soccer game tomorrow"

"Why are you scared?"

"What if I'm bad?"

"Liam, don't worry about being bad or making mistakes. All that matters is you have fun, besides, you're the best little soccer player I know"

"Really?"

"Yeah, you kicked my ass today outside" I said but it was too late to take it back

Liam laughed and said, "Daddy said a bad word"

"It's just another way of saying you kicked my butt today" I said and Liam laughed again because of course that was funny to a five year old

We finished our ice cream and I went back up to the store and got Kie her favorite. We headed home and I gave Kie her ice cream and she said, "Aww, thanks babe"

She took a few bites and then Caden, our two year old son came over and wanted a few bites and then Liam wanted a bite or two. Kie looked at me and asked, "You want some too?"

"I'm not going to say no" I said laughing

At dinner that night, we were talking about Liam's game tomorrow and he said, "Dad said I kicked his ass playing soccer today"

I gave Liam a look and he smiled and Kie gave me a look. He quickly said, "Sorry, dad"

"It's okay, just don't say that in front of anyone else, okay?"

"I promise"

We got the kids to bed and as Kie and I were getting ready for bed I said, "Liam asked about my parent's and I told him the truth"

"You did? How'd he take it"

"I mean I just told him my mom didn't want to take care of me and my dad hit me. I didn't tell him the details. He hugged me and said he was sorry my daddy was mean to me and that I was the best dad"

"He's right, you are the best dad, even when you teach our children cuss words"

I laughed and said, "It just slipped out"

"Maybe I should kick your ass"

"Oh, you're being a little bit of a smart ass, huh?" I teased her

"Better than being a dumbass" She teased back as we were both laughing

I pulled her close and put my hands on her ass and said, "I love your fat ass"

I picked her up with my hands still on her ass as she wrapped her legs around me and said, "I love your lazy ass"

"Shut up" I laughed

"Make me" She said as I leaned in and kissed her

We were making out in the bathroom and we were interrupted by our daughter crying. Kie left and went to rock her back to sleep and then she crawled into bed with me.

"Jayge, you're an amazing dad to Liam, Caden, and Lily. There is no one else in the world that I would want my kids to call dad. I'm glad that was my positive pregnancy test that night"

"Me too, you've given me the family that I spent years dreaming about as a kid. I love you, Kie"

"I love you too, JJ" She said giving me a quick kiss before falling asleep in my arms
