Justin's Pov

I watched Hailey as she said something to Kendall causing her to laugh, Ryan disappeared as minutes after we walked in the door and I had no idea where he was. Looking around the room I realized that I really didn't know anyone here they were all people in the fashion industry and I didn't care at all to be here. That just made me wonder where Ryan was, clearly he went to look for Kylie and Tessa but where were they?

My thoughts were broke by Hailey, "Right, Justin?" There was irritation in her voice and I honestly didn't feel like dealing with it right now. 

"Yeah?" I was just guessing that's what she wanted to hear but that just made her more mad as she rolled her eyes. My arm was wrapped around her waist but I couldn't look more disinterested in her right now. I liked Hailey but I hated being dragged to things like this with her. 

I interrupted their conversation to ask Kendall a question, "You know where Kylie is?"

She pointed to a spot in the corner of the room, I still couldn't see her but headed that way after giving Hailey a quick kiss. The room was filled making it hard for me to maneuver around people but I finally managed to find Kylie standing with Ryan. 

They were speaking in low voices when I made it to them, but stopped immediately when they saw me. Kylie smiled and hugged me, "Hey, Jay. What's up?"

"Nothing really, Ryan left me with Hailey and your sister so I got bored." I looked at Ryan who looked sidetracked causing me to furrow my brows, "You good bro?"

Ryan nodded, "Yeah, where'd you say the drinks are Kylie?" 

"Over there at the table." She pointed to a long table on the far side of the room and Ryan walked over to it. Before anything else was said Tessa showed up at Kylie's side, who quickly gave her a questioning look. Tessa nodded and looked at me, "Hey."

"You guys good, you all look like something just happened?" I asked looking at Tessa this time.

"We're good." She answered, starting a conversation with Kylie about the show tomorrow that Kendall had for their line.

The Next Day. Nadia's Pov.

I sat Harper and Jayce in their highchairs for lunch and tried my best to clean up their toys that were scattered around the living room. Tessa texted me about fifteen and said she'd be here soon with Kylie and although I thought I'd be nervous I was too distracted by two kids to worry about it.

As I put one of Harper's balls in the toy box there was a loud knock on the door, just ask they knocked Harper pushed her blueberries to the floor. I sighed as I answered the door, on the other side Tessa argued with Ryan who eyes were scrunched together. 

"Uh, hi." I silently questioned why Ryan was here but was ignored as they made their way in. 

Before Ryan walked past me he stopped, "What the hell are you doing in New York? What have you been doing the past two years, Nadia?"

"I live here because your friend left me alone at a restaurant two years ago." There was a small amount of venom in my voice and behind us I could here Tessa introduce Kylie to Jayce. I rolled my eyes and moved a loose piece of hair out of my face.

"That's not a good enough reason to just fucking leave. He needed time to process it. Did you ever think about that?" My face turned a bright red as Ryan spoke. I had thought about that but the truth was I needed to process it too that night and by the time I had I was already on the plane to New York while they called me nonstop. 

"Ryan-" I was cutoff by Tessa, "Ryan, come here and meet Jayce and shut the fuck up it's over. God, what's done is done and you can't change it so get over it. I don't know why you are defending his dumbass anyway. Nadia, come talk to us."

I sighed and slowly made my way to the kitchen table where they all sat, Jayce now out of his highchair and in Tessa's arms. I picked up Harper who was now just playing with the food in front of her and held her in my lap. 

Ryan sat next to Kylie, across from me. Tessa smiled down at Jayce and made a face, "This is Jayce, say hi Jayce."

Kylie's eyes were wide as she looked at Jayce, studying his features along with Ryan who still looked pissed. Jayce tried desperately to get out of Tessa's arms until he succeeded, "Let me put their gate up and I'll be back. 

I quickly put the baby gate up and sat both Jayce and Harper in it, then headed back to the kitchen. 

Kylie was the first to say something this time, "The little boy is yours?" I nodded slowly and looked down at my polished nails, I now knew Ryan was mad at me but I had no idea about Kylie. She and Tessa were the only two I was worried about, besides Justin, being mad at me and she had barely said any words to me. 

"And Justin's." None of them were expecting me to say this but I did, because he was. I know Justin doubted it that night and I know that even Ryan was by the looks of it now, but I also knew he was without a doubt Justin's.

"Mmm. So there's a DNA test to prove it?" Ryan's voice was low.

"No, but you can't look at him and tell me he's not." Ryan shook his head and looked over to Tessa but I looked at Kylie. Her face was blank and I silently begged her to say something. 

She leaned forward, "I just don't get it, you left Nadia and you didn't say a single word to anyone. The only reason we found out is because Justin said he left you at the restaurant and when we got there you were gone. That's kind of shitty of you."

"I know. And I'm sorry but let's be completely honest, what's that going to do? It's not going to change that I left, not going to take back the past two years. It was hard for me too, guys, ask Tessa. I know that even now Tessa is still mad at me but what is that going to do either? Nothing." My heart rate had gone up drastically in the past few minutes and I wanted this to be over. 

Kylie continued, "If it was hard you shouldn't have left. We told you we would be there for you, we would have been your support system. Yeah, Justin freaked but you could have waited, Nadia-" She was cut off by a phone going off. 

Ryan quickly fidgeted with his pocket to get his phone out, reading the caller ID, "It's Justin, I'm going to answer it."

"Please don't, just wait until you leave."

Ryan sighed, "I have to I just left my room and I was supposed to go to the studio with him." He slowly answered it, holding the phone tightly against his ear, "What up?"

"Yeah, I know Tessa and Kylie dragged me out to lunch. I'll be there." He quickly hung up and looked at Tessa who shrugged, "Are you going to tell him? Or at least see him?"

My head quickly shot up to Ryan, "Are you serious? You want me to tell him?"

Ryan shook his head while standing up, "Yeah, you right I'm crazy. Why the hell would you tell the father of your son he has a son?" He walked out and loudly slammed the door behind him, leaving me with Tessa and Kylie.

"It's fine, I need to talk to you about Justin without him in here anyway." Tessa laid her phone on the table and gave me a serious look.
