Jason's POV
Once we were already we headed to my car. I let the seat down so that Aiden could get, before opening the door for Tia. Starting the car, I decide to turn on the radio and My Favorite Part- by Mac Miller and Ariana Grande came on. I looked over to see Tia started to sing along to the music.
"Where do you want to eat kiddo?" I asked Aiden.
"IHOP!" He exclaimed happily.
I laughed and looked over at Tia, "IHOP okay with you Bambina?"
"Yeah." She smiled softly at me.
'Damn she's beautiful.' I thought.
I drove to the IHOP and parked, letting Aiden and Tia out of the car. We walked in the restaurant and there was a blonde girl that was there to greet us.
"Hello guys. Welcome to IHOP we'll seat you in a minute." And with that she disappeared into the restaurant to get our table ready. I looked to see Aiden playing with Tia's phone and Tia sitting down at one of the benches. I went to go sit next to her and put my arm around her.
"We need to talk later Bambina." I whispered in her ear.
She looked up at me with her big brown eyes. "Ok" she said softly.
Just as she said that the greeter came back.
"Okay your table is ready." She smiled motioning for us to follow her after she grabbed the menus. She sat us at our booth and handed us our menu along with some crayons for Aiden. I sat next to Tia and Aiden across from us.
"Your server will be with you in a moment." The girl smiled before walking off.
"What do you want to eat baby?" Tia asked Aiden.
He looked up from his coloring for a moment and said "I want pancakes and eggs and bacon."
He then turned back to his coloring leaving me and Tia to talk amongst ourselves. "So when are you going back to New York?" Tia asked me.
"I don't know." I answered truthfully.
Wishfully thinking, I wouldn't leave until Tia graduated, and I could take her and Aiden back with me. But I don't think that Tia would agree to that right away.
"Don't uproot your life like that Jason." She said softly "I have things handled here."
I looked down for a moment and thought carefully about what I was about to say next. "Maybe you could come back with me." I suggested, looking at her hopefully.
"I don't know about that Jason. I still have a few months before I get my license and get my associates. Plus Granny and Bryson or here." She explained looking conflicted.
"Look Bambina," I started taking her hand in mine. "You don't have to make the decision right now. And if you do decide to come with me, you can bring Bryson and Mama Williams with us." I smiled at her.
"So you're staying till I graduate?" She asked.
"Yeah I will." I answered, squeezing her hand in mine. "When do you graduate" I asked
"May."
"Hmm" I nod my head in acknowledgement. It's only the beginning of October so that means I had about seven months to convince her to come back to New York with me. Then she'll be my wife and I can take over with my queen and prince by my side I smirked.
Just as we finished our conversation a brunette girl in the IHOP uniform came towards our booth. She took one look at me and put on a flirtatious smile, causing me to roll my eyes at her. And apparently Tia wasn't feeling her either because she put our hands on top of the table, before looking the girl dead in the eye.
