Emmaline Torres, couldn't believe she was dumb enough to come back home. Sure she had missed it while she had been gone for almost three years, but she had made a life for her daughter, Leah, and herself. She had left when she was sixteen, she had just found out she was pregnant. She knew that Jonathan, her boyfriend at the time, and father of Leah, would have been more then happy to help out with the baby. But Emma couldn't bring herself to tell him. He had had so much going for him back then. She didn't want to be the one to ruin his life.
Though when she looked into her daughter's blue eyes, so much like her fathers, she knew that her life had not been ruined but put on track. She had moved home to help out her Gran, after she had had a hip replacement. Gran was the only family she had and she had been on the first flight out when Gran had asked. Why wouldn't she have been? Gran had been so understanding when Emma had told her her plan when she found out she was pregnant. Gran had went as far as to give Emma $10,000, though Emma didn't want to know where Gran had gotten it.
Emma was pulled out of her thoughts as she felt a little tug on her hand. "Mommom, we go dis way." Leah said as she pulled Emma towards a small dinner.They had been walking around town and doing a little window shopping. Emma took this as a sign that Leah was hungry. "Okay, baby." She said and followed her tiny leader without question. She smiled at the hostess. "Two please."
As they were taken back to their table, Emma looked around, this place hadn't changed at all in three years. Jon and her had used to come here in high school. They even had a booth they always sat at. As that thought formed in her mind, she looked over to the said booth and stopped dead in her tracks. Jon was sitting in their booth, facing toward the entrance all he had to do was look up and she would be caught.

Jon was siting in the dinner he always came here on days he didn't feel like cooking dinner for just him. The only thing Jon didn't like about the dinner was it reminded him of his old girlfriend Emmaline she had just up and left when she was sixteen, and he was seventeen. Jon was even siting in his usual booth. Jon had already ordered his food and was drinking his drink thinking about his classes. Jon had been in college for a year and a half now and was loving ever minute of it besides the fact being single, But it was ok it gave him more time to study.
Jon took a drink, and then picked his cell phone up to send a quick text to his brother Shawn. Jon wasnt really paying attention when the little bell on the door started to ring. Jon looked up to see the little girl enter the dinner she was very cute, and she kind of looked like someone he knew. Then it hit Jon looked up at the young women that entered behind the girl and it hit Jon like a bag of bricks. It was Emmaline his old girl friend. Jon looked down at the table he didnt know if she had seen him yet but he was hoping to buy him some more time so he could think of what to say.
Jon put his hands in his lap trying to hide how much he was shaking, It was Emmaline but she had a kid, where was the kids dad maybe Emmaline was visiting her grandma and he was somewhere else. He sat there thinking if he should go over and talk to her or if she even wanted to talk to her. Before Jon could stop his self he picked his hand up and Waved Emmaline over to his booth.

Emma's breath went out of her in a sigh as she saw Jon wave her over to his booth, correction, their booth. She told the hostess and walked over, Leah skipping beside her. She wondered if Jon would notice the similarities that she saw between Leah and Jon, every day she looked Leah in the face. The same breath takingly blue eyes, the same mouth. Leah even had Jon's stubborn streak sometimes.
Leah was anything but shy when she met somebody knew. "Hi, I'm Leah. I'm dis many." She said holding up three fingers. Emma wanted to smack herself in the face. Of course she just had to teach Leah to tell people how old she was. Oh was she regretting it now. She watched as the hostess brought over a booster seat for Leah and put in on the bench. Emma put Leah in the booster seat and slid in beside her. She took a deep breath and smiled at Jon.
"How you been Jon? You look great." She said. Trying to ask enough questions that he might forget that Leah had pretty much just told him that he was her father. Why had she not told him before. Oh that's right she had thought she was doing the right thing. She slipped the messenger bad/diaper bag from around her neck and pulled out Leah's sipper cup before placing the bag on the floor.

Jon let out a laugh as the little girl told him how old she was. Jon looked Emmaline up and down" I have been good, How about you? Jon laughed a little at the girl she looked so much like her mom, and someone else he knew but couldn't think of the person. Jon took another drink from his drink, then looked back over at Emmaline and back at the kid it was starting to come to him. Jon leaned over to Emmaline so no one in the dinner could hear him and whispered" Emmaline did you leave because you where pregnant?''
Jon looked over at the little girl she was so cute just like her mom. Jon started to think a little hard if the little girl was three ether Emmaline had cheated on him, or Jon was her father.Jon looked back over at her and said" Never mind about why you left i want to know is this little girl my daughter? Jon was so surprised that Emmaline was here that he didn't think about what he would do if Leah was his.

Emma wanted bang her head against the table top. Why did Jon have to be so damn smart? Why couldn't she have gotten pregnant by a total idiot that couldn't put two and two together."I've been good. Just moved back. Gran had hip surgery and can't really do anything around the house now." She took a deep breath and nodded.
She watched as Jon watched Leah. She knew that he was shocked but she wasn't expecting the next words out of his mouth. "Are you seriously asking me that? I love you Jonathan Clay Adams! I have NEVER cheated on you." She almost yelled in a whisper. She didn't want to upset Leah right now, nor did she want the others in the dinner to hear her. She was so mad that she didn't even notice that she slipped upped and said love not loved.

Jon was the happiest man on the word at that very time he didnt know what to say but he wasnt mad he was happy. Jon looked at Emmaline and smiled she said Love she still loved him. When Jon woke up this morning he never expected to learn he had a kid and that his old girlfriend was back in town he she still loved him. Jon put his hand over Emmaline's and said " Emmaline i love you to, But why didnt you tell me i was a father i would have helped you get threw it?''
Jon looked over at Leah now he saw it her eyes he nose even the way she acted reminded him or his ownself. Jon still had his hand on Emmaline he never wanted to let go he lost her once but never again he couldnt loose her. Jon knew it would take sometime to get use to having a daughter, But first he had to make sure Emmaline even wanted him in there lives. Jon looked over at Emmaline was it true did she really still love him it had been three years she had to have messed up.
Jon looked around the dinner he wanted to get up and run around the dinner, and scream and shout he was so happy. There was one thing he needed to clear up with Emmaline" Emma can i be in your life again?'' Emma he hadn called her that in for ever that was his pet name for her. [/size]

Emmaline was a little taken aback to see Jon smiling. Why was he smiling what had she said? His next words made her understand what she had said. She had said love not loved. It was the truth she loved Jon with all her heart always had and always would, but she didn't want him to know that she was still pretty much pining away for him. She hadn't ever slept with another guy, not even when she had moved away. She hadn't even been on any dates, not that there hadn't been offers.
A big smile lit up her face as she asked him the one thing she really wanted to know. "You really still love me? After what I put you through?" She had regretted her decision to leave almost as soon as she had, but she knew that it would be for the best. Jon could have gone on to go to college and just forget about her, but she guessed that her plan backfired, because he still loved her.
"I know you would have helped, but I didn't want you to have to put your life on hold too." She said as the waitress came over with her and Leah's food. She almost punched the girl for looking at Jon the way she was. Couldn't she see that they were talking. Hell Jon's hand was still holding her's for God's sake.
"Mommom, who es your friend?" Leah asked as she took a bite of her macaroni and cheese.
Emma smiled at her daughter then at Jon. "Honey, this is your daddy."

Jon looked away from Leah to answer Emma's question" Yes i still love you i haven't stopped loving you, and i love Leah its weird i just found out i have a daughter some people would be mad but I'm happy.'' Jon smiled as Emma got mad at the way the waitress had looked at him. It was Emma she was back she was very protective of Jon when they where dating she was controlling she just wanted people to know that Jon was her man and they should be jealous.
After Emma had told Leah that Jon was her dad he didnt know how the little girl would take it. Jon didnt want to make Leah or Emma uncomfortable but all he wanted was to be in there lives.Jon smiled at Leah and said" Hi Leah i'm Jon nice to meet you.'' Hearing Emma call Jon Leah's dad made him so happy he could barley contoll his emotions. Jons food got to the table and he started to eat and asked Leah" So Leah is your food good?

Emma smiled at when Jon said he had never stopped loving her. She knew exactly how he felt. She could never stop loving him. He had been her life, until Leah had been born, then they had both been her life. She felt so glad that he wasn't mad at her. He would have hated her then she didn't know what she would have done. "I hope you understand why I did it, and that I'm more than sorry for it too."
Emma smiled as she watched her daughter interact with her father for the first time. It made her life feel whole again. Leah smiled the biggest smile, Emma had ever seen. Leah nodded her head and finished her bite. "Yeah, daddy. It's really good." She said holding her spoon out to Jon. "Want ta try?" Emma laughed as her daughter tried to feed Jon.

Jon laughed a little as Leah held out her spoon, and called him daddy it really didnt take long for her to warm up to Jon. He took a bite of her food, and then some of his french fries Jon held one out to Leah then looked up at Emma" Im new to this so can she have a french frie?'' Jon sat there looking weird holding a french frie so he layed it down on Leah's plate then looked back at Emma.
Jon's phone buzzed he picked it up then sat it back down it was his room mate from college. Jon looked over at Emma and asked her'' So have to told her that i was her dad before or something because she is taking to me really fast?'' Jon put his hand on Leah he and rubbed it then bent down to kiss her head" I love you Leah and I love you Emma.''

Emma smiled as Jon asked her if it was okay for Leah to have a french fry. "She's been a good girl today, so she can have whatever she wants. I swear though that girl is going to turn into a potato, she eats so much of them." Leah laughed at Emma's joke. "I not a tato Mommom. You a tato." Leah's giggle made Emma start laughing like it always did.
Emma nodded as she tried to stop laughing. "She's always known about you. She's seen a couple pictures of you but they are older so she just didn't know it was you." Emma said trying to explain.
"Mommom show-ed me picures of you, Daddy. She said you her heart. I do not get it though how can you be Mommom's heart when her heart in here?" Leah asked putting her little hand over her heart. Emma was surprised that Leah said that, she had told her that once, a while ago. "I love you too Daddy." Leah said as Jon kissed her head. Emma smiled at her daughter and Jon. "Dido." She said. That was what she had always told him in highschool when he had told her he loved her.

Jon was smiling ear to ear he couldnt stop. He picked up his hamburger and started to eat. Jon didnt know what else to say he had all he ever want right here in the booth with him. Jon looked around the both then went back to eating. He looked over at Leah, and put some more fries on her plate. Jon looked over at Emma and put his hand around her pullling her close and kissed her." Leah your mommy is the only girl i have ever loved do you know that?"
He hadnt kissed a girl in a long time his last kiss was Emma and he forgot how good it felt. Jon tok a drink of his coke then looked at Emma and couldnt stop smiling.

Emma picked up her fork and went back to eating her Chicken Alfredo. She closed her eyes as the creamy alfredo sauce touched her tongue. She had had dreams about this dish while she was pregnant. And it tasted even better then she remembered. She opened her eyes and smiled at Jon, he was such a good dad, even though he had just become one. The way he looked at Leah, you could just tell he loved her so much.
Emma accepted the kiss with a pounding heart. That had been the first time they had kissed in three years and he still was able to send her heart racing. She smiled big when he said that she was the only girl he had ever loved. "And the same is for me." She said holding his hand in hers.
She laughed at Leah, she was always acting like she knew exactly what everybody was saying. She looked at Jon and smiled. "I would love to Jon, but I'm afraid to leave Grams alone. She's the whole reason we moved back. She just had surgery. But you could stay with us?" She asked hopefully. She wanted Jon to stay close to her, but she knew he probably had a life.

Jon laughed a little as he say Emma blush he really didnt know what else to say. Jon picked his drink up, and finished it off waiting on the waitress to come fill it up. Jon looked over at Emma and Leah he loved his small little family. He sat there looking at Leah she was so cute he really didnt know what he was going to tell his parents or his friends. Jon smiled at Emma as she told him that she had always loved him, and had never stopped loving him. Jon had always wanted to hear her say that and now that he had he never wanted to loose Emma again.
Jon leaned back in the booth thinking about what Emma asked him he didnt have anything to do tomorrow, but what would Emma's grams think if he just showed up with Emma, But Jon dicided even if he didnt stay with her he would atleast go to Grams house and spend time with Emma And Leah. He would also like to see how Grams was doing. " I will come over for a while, But we will see about me staying the night i dont know how grams will feel about me staying with yall." Jon finished his Hamburger, and put some more fries on Leah plate smiling at her.
