too.”
“Alright, I’ll head over when my appointment’s done, do you want to take the mini cooper and leave me your car?”
“Yea, guess so since I still don’t have a car seat. Maybe tomorrow when you’re off we can go get one, so we don’t have to keep on trading cars?”
“Yea, we can do that.” Seth gave me another chaste kiss, grabbed a squealing Jaks and headed out with Drake for their testosterone filled day.

“So do the guys know about Jaks yet?” asked Drake.
One of the reasons I like Drake so much, he didn’t pussy foot around something, he just came out and said what was on his mind.
“Sam does, Max told him after he saw me in the shop. I haven’t told anyone yet, I wanted to wrap my head around the situation before I had to answer a lot of questions.”
“Makes sense,” he said. “So what did they say when you told them to clean up?”
“Xavier was a dick as always, but Sam told him to stop his bitching and do it. Xavier wasn’t happy about it but said he would.”
“I hope he did for your sake, or my sister will have your balls in a vice,” he replied and I knew he was right.
I pulled my phone from the console and called Sam to double check they were cleaning out the house. Beside me Drake chuckled, he and I both knew he wasn’t joking about my balls being in a vice.
We pulled up in front of the house Xavier had bought off his parents a few years ago. He’d had a lot of work done to the place since then, adding a studio in the back for when he was home. I walked into the front door holding Jaks, and let out the breath I was holding, for once they did what they said they would. All the beer cans were gone, the ashtrays were no longer littered around the room, even had windows open airing out the place, and most importantly whatever women had stayed the night before were nowhere to be seen.
I walked to the back of the house where I knew everyone would be congregated around the Xbox. All my band was there as well as Max, Sam’s little brother and few other friends I hadn’t seen in years.
“Hey who’s winning?” I asked.
“Me of course,” said Alex our drummer without looking up.
Sam looked over at me and smiled, “So this is Jaks, huh, poor guy took after you instead of his mom.”
With that the game was paused, and everyone looked up going quiet. I think that was a first time everyone in my band was quiet at the same time.
“Yea, this is Jaks, Jaks, these are the idiots I spend most my time with,” I said.
Xavier as always had to open his mouth, “What the fuck, Seth?”
“Watch your mouth X,” growled Drake.
With that Xavier snapped his mouth shut, no one wanted to piss off Drake, when he needed to be he could be a mean son of bitch.
“Can’t blame us for being a bit surprised Drake, I mean Seth waltzes in here with a mini me that we didn’t know about, so I am guessing that means Seth didn’t either,” said Alex.
Drake growled at that, which seemed to startle Alex.
“Oh shit,” Xavier said, “no way no way in hell.”
“What the hell are you talking about X?” said Alex.
“Drake would only be acting like that for one reason, the kid is Devi’s,” said Xavier.
Alex let out a curse. Xavier may be an egotistical, bastard but he wasn’t dumb.
“Everyone meet Jackson Seth Porter, Jaks for short,” I said.
With that everyone looked at each other, and then the cursing really began. We all knew this would change things.
Chapter Eleven
I arrived later at Xavier’s than I had planned. I finished my 2 custom pieces then took in walk-in as well; the shop was busy as is normally the case for a Saturday. I wasn’t in a hurry to get here, so I was somewhat relieved when Cris asked me to take the walk-in. I’d gotten a phone call from my brother earlier in the day, he said things hadn’t gone as
