Karen pulled up to JC’s house in a rent a car; Sarah had arrived hours earlier. With out second thought Karen rushed in the house and took her daughter into a hug.
“Mom, I’m fine…really…” Sarah started holding back tears that JC worked hard to get away.
“I could just kill him my self, I really could, he is irresponsible and… and… stupid, he doesn’t even know this woman!” Karen vented as she sat down on the couch with Sarah.
“She was so much prettier than me, that’s probably why he had sex with her. She was beautiful…” Sarah said in a teary voice looking up at JC then down to the ground.
“Don’t you think like that, You are very beautiful, we all see it… Justin is just a dumb ass. I’m going to kill him for hurting you.” Karen soothed rocking back and fourth with Sarah.
“Has he told Lynn yet?” JC asked looking over at Adrea, who had been on the phone for the past hour arguing about a flight.
“That’s probably where he is right now…” Sarah stopped when JC grabbed his coat and ran out the door, to his car and drove off. “Mom, you have to stop him, he is going to start trouble, I can just tell…” Sarah sighed pulling out of her moms arms.
Karen looked at her, running a hand down her hair. She closed her eyes and shook her head, her baby daughter, even though she didn’t give birth was about to give birth to two new lives, two little baby boys, Timberlake boys nonetheless. She could tell Sarah didn’t want to talk about it any more, it was all over her face, and in the way she tried to change the subject a few times but never got it very far. Karen looked into the dinning room at Jon and Hailee sitting side by side, shoulder touching shoulder, doing homework.
“They’ve gotten big… since the last time I’ve seen them. I can’t remember when I last saw Jonathan… he looks just like Justin…” Karen said facing Sarah, who in turn was looking at the two doing their homework.
“Yeah, he’s a charmer like Justin too, but he is more irresponsible than his big brother.” Sarah said as she started to chew on her fingernail watching the two open flirts even though they both knew they liked each other.
“What do you mean, he is more irresponsible than Justin?” Karen asked as she looked at Adrea who had walked over to the two teenagers.
“He has had sex with about ten different girls, and just recently with Hailee… I busted their little party though, I caught them, well, not caught them caught them, but I got here after… I can’t even stop them from doing stuff, how good of a mother will I be?” Sarah asked standing up and going over to the play pin where Taylor and Tyler were giggling and playing with toys. She picked Taylor up and walked into the kitchen, Karen picked up Tyler and followed her granddaughter and daughter.
“Karen do you think you could help me here?” Adrea asked pointing to the food on the stove; she was still on the phone. “Hailee, Jonathan come eat.” She added turning to look into the dinning room, where they had been, but weren’t in site.
Sarah placed Taylor in her seat and buckled her up, placing the tray down and putting some goldfish to settle her for now. Walking through the kitchen she gave Adrea a half smile as she walked out of the kitchen and up the stares to hunt down Hailee and Jonathan. To Sarah it was going to be kind of weird having Jonathan as her bother, or saying it properly, her brother-in-law. Sarah reached Hailee’s bedroom door, with out knocking she pushed it open and walked in like she owned the place.
“The last time I had sex, I got pregnant, do you think you could support a family, with what you get from playing baseball, which is nothing?” Sarah asked crossing her arms over her overly large and still growing stomach to look at Hailee sitting on Jon, with her legs on each side of him, kissing deeply.
A few mumbles were heard before Hailee shifted and moved off of Jonathan to show that he didn’t have a shirt on anymore.
“We weren’t going to have sex, Sarah, we were just making out. Since your mom was here, we didn’t want to kiss in front of her.” Jonathan said smiling a Justin smile as he pulled his shirt on.
“Tell me, how old are you Jonathan? I keep forgetting, because Justin tells me you are 15, and I seem to remember you only being 15, however, with the way you talk, and the way you act… you remind me of a 25 year old Timberlake who has one child and two on the way. Don’t get me wrong, there isn’t anything wrong with being 25, but acting 25… and being 15 is wrong.” Sarah snapped walking a little more into the room. “Hailee, again, aren’t you a little young to be having sex with a boy that is as irresponsible as Jonathan. What happens if he gets you pregnant? There goes baseball, there goes your life… oh and at what age… 14… think about it, now down stairs to eat.” Sarah added as Jonathan quickly jump up and ran out the door. He hated being around Sarah and her moods, and he was extremely pissed off that Steven got to stay at their grandparents while their parents were gone. Then again he liked being around Hailee.
Hailee got up and walked towards the door, she looked back at Sarah who was now sitting where Jonathan had just been. Hailee walked a few steps towards Sarah.
“Maybe him having another kid isn’t that bad of an idea. I mean my mom had me with her boyfriend at 16, true JC wasn’t too happy when he found out, but now they are happy and have the twins, plus me.” Hailee said shrugging her shoulders as she turned around and went down stairs to eat dinner.
Sarah walked down the stairs and into the kitchen, everyone was sitting down eating, Adrea was now off the phone trying to help Taylor and Tyler.
“I told Johnny I couldn’t leave JC for two-three weeks to watch my kids, so than he has the nerve to tell me to hire a nanny. Right, he knows me well enough to know that I wouldn’t let some one that, I don’t know and don’t trust to watch my kids.” Adrea said looking up at Karen from the twins.
“That’s right around the wedding, I’ll be down here a good two weeks before the wedding starts. I have to help make sure everything goes as planned. I’ll help, JC will only be with out you for a week.” Karen said taking a bite of her mashed potatoes and gravy.
Sarah walked the rest of the way into the kitchen, looking at Karen then Adrea.
“You aren’t going to be here for my wedding?” Sarah asked looking at not only her best friend but also sister-in-law. “You are the maid of honor, you have to be here… now I have to find another maid of honor… oh my God, my wedding is going to be messed up. I have Hailee, Kelly, Amanda, and Brittany, not you any more… of course not, you can’t make it to my wedding…” Sarah said freaking out
“Hell, I’ll be your maid of honor, I look nice in pink.” Jon smiled brightly which disappeared when Hailee’s elbow went into his side.
Adrea stood up and walked towards Sarah, grabbing her arm and pulling her into a hug.
“I’m still your maid of honor, I’d never miss your wedding, not in a million years. I haven’t seen the guys in a while, and they are all going to be there… girl don’t worry, no matter where in the world I am, I’ll be there on time too.” Adrea said rubbing Sarah’s back soothingly. “No stop freaking out, I don’t want you to hurt your self or the two Justin’s you are carrying.” Adrea added as Sarah pulled out of her embrace.
“I think I need to leave… I’ll call you…” Sarah stopped as she turned and walked out of the kitchen, out of the front room, ignoring her name being called and to her car. She got in it, started it up and drove down the road, out the gate and headed onto the highway. She was getting married in six weeks, six weeks she was going to be. Mrs. Justin Timberlake, and having his kids.
Sarah’s car pulled up in front of Lynn’s house; sure enough Justin’s car was parked out front along with JC’s and Lynn’s. Looking at her self in the mirror, Sarah got out of the car and started to walk up to the front door. Hailee’s words kept replaying in her head, JC was a little, or a lot up set about Hailee, but he wouldn’t have been as up set as he was if Adrea told him in the beginning. Now they were happy and had three kids, two of which were twins and his. One was hers, but he still loved her like his.
Sarah pushed the front door open, her ears were filled with laughter from a child, and a grown man, not Justin’s laughter, but her very own brothers laughter, which was overcome with Justin’s laughter then Lynn’s.
“You like that story don’t you? I bet you did makes your daddy look like a fool huh?” Justin’s voice was still half laughing as he spoke.
“What about Uncle Joshie? Grandma Lynn, what about Uncle Joshie?” Amanda asked from Justin’s lap.
“Well, sweetie, I don’t have many stories of Uncle JC from when he was younger, but I do have a story for you. It happened a few months ago…” Lynn started but stopped when Amanda wiggled her way off of Justin and ran over to where Sarah was standing by the front door.
“Mommy Sarah!” Amanda smiled rushing to Sarah and clinging onto her leg. Sarah bent down as much as she could and pulled Amanda off of her leg. Justin stood up and rushed over to them, he grabbed Amanda away from Sarah’s leg and held her in his arms looking at Sarah.
Tears came to her eyes and she couldn’t stop looking into Justin’s dark blue ones, he was waiting for her to blow up and tell him the wedding was off, or something of that sort. He was just waiting for her to freak out on him tell him she didn’t want to see him ever again. His heart started to pound faster and faster as he looked at her, and she said nothing.
Amanda reached her arms out to Sarah, wanting a hug… Justin was about to pull her back but stopped when Sarah took the little girl into a hug. Sarah looked at Justin before she closed her eyes and gave his daughter a tighter hug. She took a deep breath and pulled out of Amanda’s arms, she looked at Justin biting his bottom lip.
“Stop biting your lip, if you think I’m going to kiss something that looks mangled on my wedding day, you’ve got to be kidding…” Sarah trailed off as Justin sat Amanda down and pulled Sarah into his arms, kissing her passionately.
