CHAPTER 8
Previously in Long Road Home:
As if right on time everyone came into the kitchen just in time to see us hugging and much to my surprise Paul came over and gave me a hug and stated "Welcome to the family Cameron I just hope that you and Cody can keep jug head out of trouble." he laughed.
"Well I thought that having one kid was gonna be a challenge, but to have 5 big boys now plus Cody I'm losing a battle that I did not sign up for!" I exclaimed which earned me a smack to the back of the head from Josh and Justin as well. Yes this was going to be a new road to travel, but with the friends that I have and the support of the new family I have it's defiantly gonna be worth it.
Cameron’s POV:
Dinner went well concerting that Cody was wearing most of his by the time dessert came around. I on the other hand was clean for once it seems that Paul wanted to give feeding Codeman a try. That was probably not the best idea because as they say like father like son, he was wearing most of it by the time Cody was done just as Justin had on the bus before. To my surprise as well as the others he did not seem to mind he kind of liked it I think.
He just kept telling Cody “It’s not good unless you get it on ya now is it?”
Once we had cleared the table and given Cody a clean up it was decided that the family needed to have a talk about what all was going on and what was excepted in the next few months with the new cd being worked on and the new tour. I kind of felt that I did not belong in this meeting so I was about to leave the dining room with Cody in my arms when Lynn and Paul both stopped me and said “You need to hear this too Cameron, there is gonna be a lot of stuff going on that you need to know as well as Justin will probably need someone to lean on because he never makes it through a meeting without falling asleep.”
“Well I guess I will stay then as long as Cody does not become fussy it’s almost bedtime for him.” I responded.
“In that case we will just have the meeting in the den that way you can lay down with Cody on the couch and Justin can prop himself up in front of it and try to stay awake.” Lynn quickly replied.
So there I was laying on my back with Cody on my chest snoozing away and Justin leaning up against the back of the couch half awake. Lynn went over the new schedule of rehearsals and promo spots that would have to be done and much to my surprise there was a gap of almost a month that the guys would have free time due to the overwhelming response from the first tour they completed. We talked about how the press may start asking questions about me if they see me with Justin a lot which to that I told Lynn we had already talked about that and that the reason is I am his personal assistant making sure he keeps up with his dates and times for the next tour.
Once I said that Josh to my surprise as well and everyone else stated that he was going to have someone joining him as a personal assistant this time around. I gave him a questing glance and he whispered to me that we would have to talk about it later. Lynn on the other hand being the mother that she is started firing question after question at poor Josh about this new person that no one knew about. Somehow I think that she knows who this new person is from the way Josh is smiling and answering her questions I think she may even know them. I guess time will tell on that one. Once Lynn felt that the questions were answered to her liking Josh told us that the new member would be coming to the next practice and we could meet him there. So it’s a him well maybe there is more to Josh than I thought.
Noticing that both of my “boys” had fallen asleep Lynn closed the meeting and sent everyone to bed.
“Cameron I know that Justin will probably want to be with you in the guest house, and that is fine as long as your both careful when you leave the property together we don’t mind him being out there just as long as your good to him. Because if your not I swear I will personally parallel park my foot so far up the crack or your ass you’ll be spitting out my toenails for years. Do you understand?” Lynn asked with Paul backing her up.
“Lynn I can understand your concern it has always been my goal to stay in the shadows of the guys so that no one gets too suspicious about anything. I would never hurt Justin or any of the other guys. I love them all to much to do that.” I responded with tears in my eyes.
“You really do love him don’t you?” Paul asked.
“With all my heart and then some. I never thought other than Cody I would love another like this but I was wrong and I thank God everyday for that.” I responded with as much love and depth as I could.
“I guess I should wake up Justin, because if I don’t he will be mad that I did not let him tuck in Cody before bed.” I lightly giggled.
As I slowly stroked Justin’s cheek his eyes fluttered open with a smile on his face once he noticed Cody on his chest sleeping soundly. As he started to move Cody tightened his grip on Justin’s shirt, so he did the only thing he could do and held onto him so that he would not move from his chest. Sometimes he really surprised me at how grown-up he could be when he was around Codeman he was Pappa, but when he was around the guys he was the crazy brother we all loved. Right now though he was the man that had my heart with a slight case of bed head. We left the house and went back to the place that I would be calling home for now. Cody still sleeping soundly on Justin for the whole trip.
“Go ahead and put him into his bed so that we can tuck him in for the night.” I whispered to Justin.
As Justin took Cody into his room I went to the bedroom and stripped down , and put on a pair of pj’s. Once I was in my pajama pants I went back to Cody’s room to help Justin tuck him in and kiss him goodnight. It seemed that the day had been to much for him because he was fast asleep holding onto his teddy bear.
“Your going to be a great Pappa you know that right?” I asked Justin softly. To which he just turned around and smiled gently. I gave him a soft kiss on his lips then kissed Cody on his forhead, before we left the room.
“Lets go to bed I think that today has been a very long and tireing one for us all.” Was my half-asleep mumble to Justin.
“That’s a great idea just let me change and we can spend our first night in a real bed without anyone or anything to bother us.” Justin stated while stripping down to his boxers.
We both crawled into bed and it felt strange to have this much room again, and with someone to share it with. Justin took his usual place with his head on my shoulder and a leg straddled over my waist as if trying to make sure I would not leave him in the middle of the night. As I looked down at the man that had stole my heart his blue eyes bore into my soul and I could feel that everything would be ok we could make it through whatever was thrown at us. Little did I know that this statement would be tested time and time again, but I am getting ahead of myself back to Justin. His eyes met mine and I gently kissed his forhead and said “Goodnight sexy” while rapping my arms around his waist to allow us to settle into dream land together.
