Definitely didn’t expect that.

“Summer told me about all the horrendous things that you’ve been through these past few weeks,” She says as she pulls away, keeping her hands on my shoulders as if to make sure I’m still here with her.

“Oh, yeah, I’m fine now,” I answer with a smile.

Fuck, fuck, fuck. I wish I were less awkward. Oh my god.

“We brought some gifts,” I say, lifting the bottle of wine in my hand and nodding to all the stuff Jax is holding.

“Oh, you didn’t have to,” She says, offering me a kind smile that makes me relax a bit.

“I really wanted to do something to say thank you for taking care of Summer so much recently.”

“We love having her over, it’s really no trouble at all,” She says down to me. “How about you introduce me to your man?”

“Oh! This is Jax. He’s—he’s my fated mate,” I say smiling over at him.

I think that’s the first time I’ve really introduced him as my fated mate before. It feels nice.

“It’s wonderful to meet you, Jax. I’m Sharon: Allison and Alex’s mom. I’m glad Olivia has someone to look after her all the time now.”

“I’m glad to be here,” he says, smiling down at me.

“Here, how about you both come inside,” She says.

We follow her inside their wonderful house and set down the gifts we brought over on her kitchen counter.

“Summer!” Sharon calls up the stairs. “Your sister is here?”

I hear a rush of footsteps down the stairs and then Summer is flying into my arms.

“You okay?” I whisper into her hair.

She nods, pulling back to look up at me. “What about you? You look like you’ve been crying. “

“Come on,” I sigh. “let’s go get your stuff from the car, we can talk about it there.”

I give a little wave to Sharon and Jax, who’re both talking with each other, and head out to the car with Summer.

“We went to go see a lawyer,” I tell Summer as I open the trunk to Jax’s car and sit on the back bumper. “Jax has a really good one.”

“What did they say?” Summer asks, taking a seat next to me.

“He said we should definitely try to get 100% custody of you. Unless you’d like to see Mom more?”

“Hell no,” Summer says, shaking her head. “I want to stay with you.”

“Okay,” I say, reaching over to grab her hand. “Well, then, the lawyer gave us a recommendation for the best way to make that happen. He said Jax and I should bond. How do you feel about that?”

Her eyes widen and she squeezes my hand back.

“Why’re you asking me how I feel about it, it’s your life. How do you feel about it?” She asks.

“Well, cause he’s gonna be a part of your life too, you know? I don’t want to have someone permanently in our lives if you don’t want them there.”

“Does he make you happy?”

“Yeah,” I say, smiling fondly at the concrete driveway, thinking of Jax and all the things he’s done for me. “Yeah, he does.”
