The dinner was a complete success. In the weeks that followed, Michael and Jane were practically attached at the hip. They did everything together as long as it was possible. Michael was going above and beyond to get her to forget that he hit her and he was definitely succeeding considering where they were at the moment.

It was just a little after midnight, they stumbled into Michael’s apartment. They could barely keep their hands off each other. The kisses were passionate mixed with sloppy caresses. Michael had been waiting for this moment for weeks and not even the world coming to an end would stop him from getting what he wanted.

“Good morning, beautiful” he greeted her with a smile

“Good morning” she said shyly remembering what had happened between them

“I made you breakfast”

“Thank you” she forgot she had no clothes on and she got out of the bed.

He was surprised with the way she nonchalantly walked off to the bathroom.

“Oh shit!” he heard her exclaim. He then realised she forgot she was naked. It was too late now though. He wanted her. More of her. He made his clothes scarce and stalked to the bathroom for an encore performance.

It was dark outside when a phone call woke her up.

“Hello?” Jane answered without looking at the screen

“Where are you?” April asked

“April? Oh shit. I missed the appointment. I-”

“Save it. Let me guess? You were with Michael”

“Don’t be like that, April.”

“We are very hurt. We haven’t even met the dude even once. Since you met him, we’ve been really ignored. Not cool, Jane. We are your family”

“I’m so sorry.”

“This time, it’s not enough” she said and hang up.

“Ap-” the line was dead.

She was right though. She has been hanging out with them as much. She got out of the bed carefully and quietly got dressed. She needed to go see her family. She took Michael’s car keys because hers was still at her place and left him a note.

She drove to her brother’s house. It was late but she needed to talk to them so she made her way into the house using her keys. They weren’t expecting her so when they heard someone breaking into their house, Jason pulled out his gun. He got that gun for a day such as this. He stood at the top of the stairs, “Don’t move or I’ll shot” he said cocking his gun.

“Jace, it’s just me.” Jane responded.

“Jane?” he asked flipping the lights on and uncocking the gun.

“What are you doing here? So late at night? Are you okay?” he embraced her.

“I’m okay, Jace. I am sorry I missed the appointment with the doctor. We were supposed to find out the gender then.” She cried softly

“It’s okay. I’m not mad, a little hurt maybe but I understand the concept of new love.”

“But April said-”

April is pregnant and hormonal. She is a different story” he chuckled and was slapped at the back of the head.

“Is that so?” April said moving to stand by her husband.

“Ouch, babe” he whined as she rolled her eyes.

Jane stepped out of her brothers embrace. Walking to April with her arms open for a hug, “Do you forgive me?” she said with puppy dog eyes

“Yes! With this grand gesture, how could I not” she laughed hugging her

“I missed you, April”

“I missed you too, Jane”

“What about me?”

“Oh, shut up, Jace.” April said

“I missed you too” Jane said to her brother.

They settled down in the kitchen.

“So, do you know the gender?” she asked them

“Well, we decided to be surprised like the old days” April said smiling

“She decided and I just went along with because she said she’s the one who is actually pregnant”

“Well, she’s not wrong, Jace” she laughed at her brother

“You’re supposed to be on my side. I’m your brother” said with mock hurt.

“She’s my sister too” April chimed

“Yup and we have girl code” Jane stated

“Sisters before misters” they both said laughing

“Alright, alright. Whatever” he said sulking

“Come on, don’t be a sour puss” April teased

“I’m not”

“Are too”

“I’m-”

“Absolutely not. You guys are not about to do this” Jane intervened

“Okay, now when are we meeting this guy whose been taking you away from us?” Jason asked

“Soon”

“You’ve been saying that for a while now” April commented

“I know but it’s going to be sooner than you think. He just has a busy work schedule.”

“I came by your place two days ago. You weren’t there. Josh said you hadn’t been there in a while. Care to explain?” Jason asked with a n eyebrow raised

“Erm, I sort of live with Mike now” she whispered

“Pardon? I didn’t quite catch that. It sounded like you said you live with a man.” April said

“Because that’s what I said” Jane said lowly

“WHAT?!” Jason exclaimed

“Jason, please” Jane pleaded

The couple looked at each other and it seemed a decision was made because April spoke up.

“Why are you living with a man you aren’t married to?”

“You did it too”

“That’s different because I didn’t have a place of my own and you were sort of a chaperone. You were always here.”

“True but I like him and I love spending time with him. I lose track of time when we’re together.” She explained

“I don’t like him. Because a good guy would like to meet your family before he let you sort of live with him” April said and Jason nodded.

Jane could see that the conversation was going nowhere and unless Mike came over to see them, they weren’t going to approve.

“I’ll ask him to come around in the morning. Is that okay?” she asked

“Afternoon will be better. But it’ll be at the diner” April said

“Okay, that’s cool” Jane responded and April yawned.

“It’s time for you to sleep” Jason said and then they bid her goodnight.

“Goodnight, guys” she said.
