Chapter Eighteen



They were on the bus, and AJ watched as Nick and Brian were playing video games... Again. He walked up to them, and tapped Nick on the shoulder. Nick looked at AJ, who was all sad of all this. "What's the matter?" Nick asked. AJ motioned for him to come with him. They ended up going into the bathroom.


"Nick, promise me if anything happened to me you would take Becka in."


"AJ, I don't..."


"Please, I don't know how much more of this I can take."


"But, she can't live without you."


"I know, but Nick, she loves you, more than any of the guys, she trusts you more than anything. Please." AJ pleaded.


"Alright, but this is IF you die at 50 and she's 16 or however old she is."


"Alright. Thanks." AJ said before crying into Nick's arms.



AJ looked at his daughter sleeping in his bunk. Sighing loudly, he turned back to where the other guys were playing cards. He sat down at the table and picked up a doll that she had left there.


"Yo AJ what's the matter? You seem depressed lately." Brian asked.


"The tests come out tomorrow, and I think I know who's her mother." He said putting the doll back on the table and walking into his bunk.


Taking his sleeping baby girl in his arms he slowly went back to sleep.



Nick was watching a movie, when AJ's cell phone went off. Nick picked it up, knowing that AJ was sleeping. "Hello?" he said. His eyes still fixed on the movie. "May I please speak to Mr. McLean."


"Umm... He's sleeping right now, can I take a message?" Nick asked picking up the pen and paper next to him.


"This is an emergency, is there any way possible that you could wake him up for me?" the woman asked.


"Hold on, I'll try. Can I ask who's speaking?" Nick asked. "This is Ms. Martin, Sky's mother."


"Oh, alright hold on." Nick said. Hoping that nothing else happened in that family.


"AJ." Nick whispered, hoping he didn't wake up Becka. "AJ." he said again poking him in the side.


"What?" AJ mumbled, half asleep, half awake.


"Umm. Sky's mom is on the phone. She said it was an emergency." AJ quickly got out of bed, holding the sleeping Becka in his arms as he grabbed the phone from Nick.
