and Sly’s silly ass opens it, grinning. “It’s the graduate.”
    “Can you stop calling me that?” I say as I enter the room.
    “Come on, they’re in the backyard. I need to get back before your sister burns the shit on the grill.” He pats my shoulder. “You know I love your sister, but she can’t grill for shit.”
    I laugh as we go through the back door. “Surprise!”
    Looking around the backyard, I see everyone. Krista and Lincoln come running up to me. “Sapwize!”
    I laugh at them and bend down to hug them. “Thanks, guys.”
    Slick comes up and hugs me. “Congrats, Jade.” He blushes as he speaks. In my mind I still see that little boy I babysat. He’s grown so much since then. I see him being quite the heart throb in a few years.
    Messing up his hair, I smile. “Thanks, bud.”
    My sister appears in front of me. “I wanted to celebrate your accomplishment. You rock. I also knew that you wouldn’t let me if I gave you a say in it. So-.” She motions around her backyard at the people. “I decided to surprise you.”
    She’s right, I wouldn’t go along with this if she’d asked. I really don’t feel like facing any of these people. They know everything I’ve done. I’m sure I look like the biggest fucking idiot.
    I see Sly by the grill. “Hey, um, is there any liquor at this party?”
    He shakes his head. “Yeah, go check the cabinet in the kitchen.”
    “Thanks.”
    I make my way into the kitchen and fill a cup with ice. Opening the cabinet, I find a bottle of vodka. Not my normal, but it’ll work. As I shut the cabinet, I come face to face with a very smug looking Gia.
    “So I guess we both have something to celebrate, huh?”
    I roll my eyes. “What do you mean?”
    “I mean Gibbs and I having a baby, living together, and you finally getting to move on with your life. You know, now that you’re finished with school,” she says with this huge smile that if she wasn’t pregnant, I’d knock off her face.
    Opening the bottle of vodka, I start to pour it on my ice. “Thanks,” I bite out.
    She grins. “Thanks, Jade.” She looks around. “I really appreciate you being so sweet about all of this and stepping away like Gibbs asked you. I know you and him hooking up while we were separated had to confuse things, but now we’re back together and we just want what’s best for our child.”
    She spins and practically bounces out of the kitchen. Did he really fucking tell her that? That he asked me to step aside? Fuck him.
    I go to take a drink out of my cup, but suddenly I don’t want it. The back door flies open with Huck running through the house. “What’s going on?” I say, dropping the cup in the sink.
    He turns back to me. “I’m grabbing the car. Kara just passed out.”
    I go running to the backyard, seeing Sly carrying her around the house to the car. I take off out the door running to Mom. “Mom?”
    She shakes her head, crying. Elaine looks to me. “She’s worried that everything that’s been going on with Kara is pointing to the fact that she could be diabetic like her. Eve never had diabetes until she got pregnant with you.”
    “Come on, Mom, we’ll follow them to the hospital.”
    Elaine smiles. “I’ll take your mom. You stay here and enjoy the party.”
    I shake my head. “No, I’m not really in the mood to party. I’ll just be worried about Kara.”
    She nods. “Okay. I understand. I’ll take Krista home with Marco and me.”
    I smile back to her. “Thanks, Elaine.”
    Once I make it around the house with Mom, Clay is standing beside my car. “Do you need me to drive?”
    “Uh, no. I’m fine. We’ve got this. I’m sure the guys could use some help cleaning up.” I look back as I open my door. “Thanks for coming or whatever.”
    As I pull away, he just stands there with a confused look on his face.
    Once we get to the hospital, I make my way through the emergency room. Thank God for a hospital badge . Once Mom and I get back to where my
