Stay

6.

"Your parents and sister are here too" Jessica asked, it was the first time either had spoken to each other since Pittsburgh

"They came to say hi" Sidney said parking the Tahoe, Taylor walked out of the house and towards the car "at least act happy" he said, Jessica gave him a dirty look before getting out the car

"Aunty Taylor" Addison cheered, as Sidney unstrapped her from the car seat, Taylor giggled

"Hi sweetie" she said as Sidney passed Addison over, Addison hugged her "hey Jess"

"Hey tay" Jessica said with a smile grabbing Greyson

"And meme is here for that sweet handsome boy" Trina said walking up behind her, Jessica smiled and handed Greyson to her "you ok sweetie, you look stressed" Trina said putting a loving hand on Jessica's shoulder

"I'm just tired, Greyson has been sick" she said with a frown, she looked at the ground as Troy walked out of the house

"Papa" Addison squealed jumping out of Taylor's arms and running to him, Troy laughed and leaned down

"There's my angel" he said scooping her up

"Here I got this stuff with Sidney Jess, you guys head to the house" Taylor said

"You sure"

"Of course" Taylor said with a smile

*****

"He's finally asleep" Jessica said walking down the stairs

"All he needed was his Mommy's touch, Sidney was like that too" Trina said with a smile, Jessica smiled and looked outside to see Addison and Sidney playing in the pool, Troy at the BBQ pit, and Taylor sitting by the pool watching Sidney and Addison "he's a good man Jess, he loves you very much" she said, Jessica turned

"I know" she said quietly

"whatever this is that's going on between you 2, I hope you can work it out" she said, Jessica looked her "no he didn't tell me, I'm a mom, I'm his mom, I can tell when something is wrong" she said, Jessica looked down as Trina walked outside. She stood back and watched everyone for a few minutes before walking out

"Mommy watch" Addison said, Jessica smiled at her daughter as she let go of the side of the pool, Sidney looked up at her as Addison grabbed onto him

"Good job baby" Jessica said with a smile as she sat down on the chair

"She's gonna be swimming before you know it" Troy said, Jessica nodded and looked at her husband.

She loved him, that was for sure. Why were they arguing, what was the tension between them. This wasn't like them at all.

"Jess" Taylor said waving her hand in front of her face

"Huh" she asked snapping out of her thoughts, Taylor giggled

"I said can I take Addison tonight" she said

"Oh umm" she said looking at Sidney, he looked at her

"I know Grey is sick so Addy and I can have some one on one time" she added

"Yea that's fine" she said, Taylor smiled

"I will take Greyson tonight" Trina said "you just tell me how to do his meds, it will give you and Sid some time together" she said sternly, Jessica nodded her head.

Sidney's family had been extremely supportive of Sidney his entire life, and extremely supportive of Jessica since day 1, so anything that they had to say, Jessica was all for listening and taking advice.

*******

"Papa this is so good" Addison said looking at the small cheeseburger in her hand

"Why thank you Addison" he said, she smiled from across the table.

"Daddy what's that" she asked, Sidney looked at his burger

"Mushrooms, do you want to try" he asked, she turned her nose up and shook her head

"Can we go swimming again"

"Not tonight, your going to go stay with Aunt Taylor tonight" Jessica said, Addison smiled and nodded

"She sure does talk a lot don't she" Troy said, Jessica nodded her head

"Just like her mom" Sidney said with a smile "she sure didn't get that from me"

"She got that obnoxious laugh from you though" Taylor said, Jessica grinned and nodded

"Are you done" Sidney asked

"No....ok yes I'm done...may I please be excused" she asked

"Take your plate to the counter and go get your stuff ready, I'll come up to help in a second" Jessica said, Addison nodded and did what she was told, Sidney leaned over and brushed the hair from Greyson's face

"He's looking a lot better than yesterday" Sidney said softly, Jessica nodded and looked at their son

"Jess just write down directions on what to do for me please" Trina said, Jessica nodded and stood up, handing Greyson to Sidney.

After Jessica went up stairs, Troy and Taylor went to the livingroom with Greyson, while Sidney and Trina started to clean

"Tonight, you 2 need to talk, get everything out" she said, Sidney leaned against the counter

"I know" he said with a sigh, he scratched the back of his head "I don't know what's happening" he said looking down

"You have to let her get out her feelings, and you have to get yours out and whatever it is son, work on it" she said

"We will, we will be ok. We have 2 beautiful kids, and I love her more than anything" he said, Trina smiled

"I know you do sweetie" she said wiping her hands on the dish towel

"Go say bye to daddy" they heard, they stopped talking to see Addison walk in with her backpack and penguin.

"Daddy can I take iceburgh" she said, Sidney chuckled

"No iceburgh has done enough traveling today he's going to stay here"

"Ok" she said softly, Sidney leaned down and picked her up

"You have fun, and be good for Aunt Taylor ok" he said, she put her hands on his cheeks and smiled

"Ok" she said, she leaned down and hugged him tightly "I love you daddy" she said

"I love you too princess" he said kissing her, Jessica smiled

"I love you mommy"

"I love you too" she said kissing her, Sidney put her back down as Taylor walked in

"You ready"

"Ya!!!" She cheered, Taylor chuckled

"see you guys tomorrow"

"Bye, have fun" Sidney said, he turned to see jessica going over Greyson's medicine with Trina, Troy was standing there with Greyson, when they finished they said goodbye and watched them drive away.

Sidney locked the door and set the alarm before walking to the livingroom, he heard rustling around in the kitchen and walked that way. She was standing at the sink washing Greyson's bottles

"Babe" Sidney said, she stopped but didn't turn around "can we talk" he asked softly. She dried her hands and wiped her face before turning around, he could tell she was crying "what's happening between us"
