Next day
JJ's pov
It's the next morning after Kai was born was and nurses had just told me that I can take him home, so I was in my hospital room getting him in his car seat and everything in my bag ready to go when Ashley walks into the room.
"Hey JJ, can we talk?" She asks nervously standing in the door way
"Um yeah sure I guess, you can come in" I say confused
"Ok cool" she says coming in and sitting down in the chair
"What is it" I say sitting down on the bed
"Look I know you hate me and I don't blame you for that. To be honest I would hate myself to if I was you, I mean I already kinda do and you have no reason at all to forgive me for the stuff I said to you or how I treated you even how I treated River. All I'm saying is I'm sorry for all the shit I said and did" She says sounding serious
"Are you done" I say not fully believing her
"You know what this is a waste of time, I knew you wouldn't care" she says getting up to leave the room
"Ok Ashley hold on I'm sorry, so you're apologizing what's that gonna do" I say feeling bad
"I don't know I was hoping that maybe if I apologized you would forgive me and maybe let me.... hold him or maybe even be his mom, I don't know if I'm ready for that one, but I do wanna maybe at least just hold him one time, if your let me" she says nervously turning around to look at me
"God but I thought you said you didn't want anything to do with him" I say a little upset that she's changing her all of a sudden. "Like did someone tell that you get money from the government every year if you have kids, because I don't think someone can just change their mind like that" I say
"No that's not what happened I don't care about the money JJ, the nurses were talking to me about him and they were saying how cute he was, you with him, and they were talking about River meeting him saying that it was adorable. And I realized that I'm the last one to meet my son when I should have been first and I was thinking about how River is growing up without his mom because..... well she's gone and I felt bad that Kai would be growing up without one to even though I would be minutes away, so I'm sorry that I'm changing my mind, but I wanna be his mom JJ, please" she says desperately
"Are you done with your little speech" I say
"Yeah I am, sorry I'll just go" she says
"Ashley no sorry that's not what I meant" I say getting up from the bed turning her around, pulling her into a hug. "Thank you for changing your mind and your not the only one who should be apologizing I said some shitty stuff to, so I'm sorry" I say letting her go
"So you forgive me then" she says
"Yeah, you forgive me for the shit I said" I say
"Yeah" she says
"Good, come on, sit down" I say going to Kai in his car seat. "I just put him in this thing, so when we leave your putting him back" I say unbuckling him
"Ok" she says laughing
"Ok so you gotta hold his head beca..." I sat getting interrupted
"JJ I've held a baby before" she says interrupting me
"Right sorry, here" I say putting Kai in her arms
"Hi Kai, it's mommy" she says tearing up playing with his hands. "How can his hands be this small" she say smiling at him
"Yeah it's crazy" I say. "Can you please promise me that your not gonna change your mine in few weeks and ditch him" I say
"I promise, do you believe me" she says looking me in the eyes
"Yeah I believe you" I say. "So how are we doing this then, are we gonna do I have him one week and you have him the other, two birthdays two holidays or if you really wanted to we could try doing it together" I say
"Like dating you mean, hell no I might not hate you, but I don't love you" she says
"Good so we're on the same page, so weeks then" I say
"Yeah sounds good" she says playing with his Kai's hands. "Look he's holding my finger" she says smiling
"Yeah thats cute, but I gonna told my friends that I'd be at the chateau like 20 minutes ago, so I kinda gotta go, but I can give you a ride home if you need one, sorry to cut this short" I say
"No it's ok their probably worried about you we can go and I would love a ride home thanks" she says getting up with Kai in her arms. "Actually um could I go to the chateau with you first. I wanna apologize to your friends" she says putting Kai in his car seat
"Uh yeah you can come then that way you can spend more time with him" I say. "Can you carry that ok it's pretty heavy" I say
"No I actually can't doctor said no heavy lifting for 2 days, I'll carry the bag through you can have Kai" she say taking the bag and giving me Kai
"Can I buckle him in" she says once were at the car
"Um yeah I just have to figure out how first" I say confused looking at the car seat
"Didn't you do this before" she says
"Um yeah when we left the hospital and a couple months later, but I wasn't really in the right mind when I did that and it was a year and a half ago, so I kinda need some help" I say
"What did you not drive him around for two months" she says
"Um....no I actually....didn't start taking care of him till he was almost 3 months old, so I didn't do any of the newborn stuff besides the day I took him home, so its all kinda new to me to" I say nervously
"I didn't know that why didn't you take care of him" she says
"I just thought he'd be better without me, truth is he wouldn't and I know that now, deciding to be his dad was the best thing that ever happened to me, so this decision your making to be Kai's mom promise you won't regret it, he's gonna be like your little bestfriend, but let's put that emotional stuff aside we have to get him in the car" I say putting his car seat on the seat
"Yeah, I'll look up how to put it in" she say grabbing her phone
She looks up the video on how to buckle him in which helps and we get him and drive to the chateau with Ashley in the back seat getting ever minute she can with Kai
"Hey guys sorry I'm late. Had a little distraction at the hospital" i say getting Kai out of the car, pointing at Ashley as she gets out
"Oh no hell no JJ she's not coming inside" John B says walking towards us
"Ok John B she apologized to me and she wants to be part of Kai's life and I'm not gonna be the asshole who doesn't allow her to and I'm also not gonna be the asshole who allows his son to grow up without his mom" I say
"He's right I'm really sorry how I treated you guys and JJ I admit I was a bitch, but I wanna be Kai's mom and that's up to JJ not you guys" Ashley says
"So you guys are like dating then, I thought you weren't ready for a relationship?" John B asks me
"Oh no hell no were not dating just because I'm letting her be in his life doesn't mean I like her" I say
"Alright if your forgiving her then I guess we will to, right guys" John B says
"Yeah" all the pogues say
