| Chapter 3 |
| Joshua and Joey were in Justin's room, they had all finished dressing and were talking about the new involvement in Shady's relationship with Kimmie. "I really don't like Kimmie." Joey stated, he was sitting at the bottom of Justin's bed. "Way to state the obvious Joe-Joe." Justin said from the top of the bed. Joshua looked perplexed, "Guys I don't like her either but daddy does and I do not want to lose him." Justin looked at Joshua and nodded, "Me neither. Losing momma was bad enough but daddy; I can't lose him!" Joey took a deep breath, "Yeah ok, I'll lay off. Have you guys met Chris and Lance?" Joshua perked up instantly, "I'm friends with Lance, he's such a sweet boy, can't believe Kimmies his mother but..." Joshua shrugged and had a dreamy smile on his face. Justin and Joey exchanged a look grinning, and Joey said, "Aaw does Joshie have a new love." "Is our little Joshie-poo crushing on sweet boy Lance?" Justin teased. Josh blushed deeply, "Guys..." "Joshie you don't have to hide with us." Justin said smiling at his big brother. "Yeah. You know I almost wanted to beat the crap out of Keanu for dumping you. We don't care who you love as long as your happy." Joey stated and then pulled Joshua into a hug. Joshua hugged his younger brother tightly and looked over and saw Justin pouting 'cause he wasn't included, "Aaaw Justy come here." Justin's pout turned instantly into a smile and he crawled over and wrapped his arms around Joshua and Joey, "I love you Joshie-poo." Joshua hugged them both tightly, "I love you too Justy." Joey hugged his older brother and younger brother tightly, "I love you Jc, and I love you JuJu." Joshua smiled and replied, "I love you too Joe-Joe bear." "I love you too Joey." Justin replied hugging his older brother's tightly. "And I love you all very much." Shady said from the doorway. "Daddy!" Joshua, Justin and Joey exclaimed. "My baby's." Shady sighed smiling, he opened his arms, "Give your daddy a hug." They all rushed and hugged their daddy and Joshua said, "I love you too daddy." "I love you too daddy." Justin said smiling. "I love you too daddy." Joey said as he hugged Shady tightly. Shady hugged them all tightly, "You guys ready?" They all nodded and Joshua asked, "Where we going daddy?" Shady grinned; he would do anything to keep his baby's happy, "I thought we would go to see a movie then have dinner." "That's sound like fun." Justin agreed excitedly and the others agreed. "What are we watching?" Joey asked. Shady grinned as he led his kids downstairs, "It's a surprise." The kids giggled and got in the car and buckled up as Shady drove them to the Multiplex, when they got there they got out and Shady ordered the tickets and returned his kids laughing at how exciteded they looked. "What are we watching daddy?" Justin asked. Shady grinned, "Scooby-doo." Joshua, Joey and Justin cheered and hugged their daddy as they made their way into screen 4; where it was showing. "This is so cool. Thanks daddy." Justin said as he was seated. "No problem honey." Shady said smiling. They sat down and watched it, all of them had a crush on Sarah Michelle Gellar and Joshua had a crush on Freddie Prinze Jr. When the movie was over they got up and left, Joshua, Joey and Justin gushing about how great it was and thanking Shady for taking them, he just smiled, proud to have made his children happy. Shady took them to McDonalds; their favorite fast food restaurant, and they all ordered Big Macs. When they got the food the kids couldn't stop talking about how good it was and Shady just laughed shaking his head at them wondering how they could understand eachother they were talking so fast. When Joshua finished he excused himself as he finished light years ahead of the others and went outside, he pulled out his cell and dialled a familiar number. "Hello?" The familiar voice sent shivers down Joshua's spine. "Hey baby-J." Joshua giggled into the phone. "Joshua I told you not to call me that!" Lance tried to sound stern but he ruined the effect by giggling. "I've told my daddy not to call me Joshie but he still does it." Joshua smiled [[Lance is so cute]] "Joshua that is the cutest name I've ever heard." Lance laughed. Joshua laughed, "I'll give you something cute to laugh about," Joshua took a deep breath and sang, "I can be your hero baby, I can kiss away the pain, I will stand by you forever, you can take my breath away." Lance was awed he new Joshua had a beautiful voice but to hear him singing THAT to Lance, it took his breath way, "Joshua you sound WAY better then Enrique." Joshua blushed, "Erm, thanks." Lance smiled he knew Joshua was blushing, the smile was evident in his voice as he said, "You really do Joshua you should be a singer." Joshua could hear Lance's smile over the phone and closed his eyes and blurted out, "Only if your with me." Lance swallowed a gasp [[Me and Joshua singing together? What a dream?]] "Sure." Joshua could tell they were getting into territory they weren't ready to talk about yet, "Have you hard about daddy and your mom?" "Yeah, so I guess I'll be seeing a lot more of you then." [[Like that would be torture]] "Yeah. You have to promise me something?" Suddenly Lance's heart started to beat faster, "Promise you what Joshua?" "Don't hog the bathroom baby-J." Lance broke down laughing, "Sure thing Joshie. I better go." Joshua swallowed back his dissapointment, "Talk to you later baby-J." Lance giggled, "Bye Joshie." Lance hung up the phone, "I love you." "I love you Lance." Joshua said to his phone as he hung up. "Do you Joshie?" Justin quietly asked. Joshua's eyes widened and his head whipped round and he saw Joey and Justin staring at him with that all too knowing look on their face [[Oh no!]] |
