*Emma's POV*

Selena and Gabe looked at each other and smiled.

"John Alexander" Gabe said.

"I love it" nana and Mandy said.

"Me too, it's super cute" Dallas said.

I thought about it.
It fit him well, I just wasn't sure if I liked it.

John Alexander.
Dad.
Dad was John.
He was gonna remind me of dad every time I'd say his name.

"What do you think about it, Em?" Selena asked.

"Fits him well" I said.

"Don't like it?" Gabe asked.

"Why would you think that?"

"Cause you didn't say you liked it, you just said it fits him well" he said.

"Oh, no, it's a cute name and I like it..." I trailed off.

"But?" mom asked.

"Nothing. It's not important. It's a really cute name. And it really does fit him well" I said.

"Mind if I have a word with Emma in private?" Sel asked everyone in the room.

"Sure" Dallas replied,as everyone started to walk out.

"Dem, stay" Sel called after her.
Mom turned around and closed the door behind her.

"So, what's really going on?" Selena asked, as mom wrapped her arm around my shoulder.

"It's nothing. It's really not important" I don't wanna ruin her special moment with my sob story. I'm gonna have to be able to face that name one day, anyway.

"Baby, we won't judge. We know something's bothering you. It's okay to tell us, you know?" mom rubbed my arm.

"My dad's name was John" I finally said, "But that's fine. I'll get used to it"

"Come here, beauty" Selena said, as I walked to her and she gave me a hug, "I know it's hard, but everything will be alright. We can call him Alexander or Alex if you'd rather have that"

"No, don't. I don't want you to call him something just because of me. I have to get used to it anyway. It's okay. Really"

"I'm very proud of you" mom kissed the top of my head.

"We're defiantly having a family night soon to celebrate Matt getting better and the new baby" Dallas said, after everyone was in the room again.

"Hell yeah, we are" Mom smiled.

"Yeah, it'll be fun" Marissa said.

"Well, we gotta go now. Matt just came home and I want to be there with him. Call me if you need anything" mom said, as she took my hand in hers.

"Congrats Sel!" I said and me, mom, Dallas and Marissa left.
Grandad, Rob, his kids and Dave were all at our house.

"So, everything alright?" dad asked.

"Yep, it's a beautiful baby boy" mom said.

"Name?" Rob asked.

"John Alexander"

"Cute" grandad said.

"Hey, wasn't daddy also John?" Matt asked.

"Yep, he was" I said.

"I like him already" Matt said.

"You like who?" Ally asked.

"I like Johnny" Matt said.

"Who's that?" Riley asked.

"That's Selena's baby" Matt said.

"Selena got a baby?" Millie asked.

"Yep. A boy" Matt said.
He was very happy with a new boy.

"So, we got new cousin?" Rose asked.

"Yeah Rosie, we did" Matt smiled, as he hugged her.

Dallas, Rob and their kids left and so did Marissa and Dave.

"You're staying for dinner" mom said to grandad.

"I am?" he asked.

"Yep, mom and Maddie are also coming, they just had to go home first. They're bringing someone with them, or something like that" mom said.
A smile came across grandad's face.

"You know about that?" mom asked.
He nodded.

"Yep. I've been waiting for this to happen" he smiled.

"Who are they bringing?" dad asked.

"You'll have to wait and see" he said, with a smirk.

"Okay, well I'm gonna go make dinner. I'll be in the kitchen if anyone needs me" mom said.
Grandad sat down on the couch and the kids were playing.
I wasn't really in the mood of company yet, to be honest. I hadn't totally recovered from the accident and everything.

All of a sudden I felt this lump in my throat, like I was gonna burst into tears any second now.
I went to the kitchen.

"Mama?" I asked, quietly.

"Yes?" she asked, not looking up from her cooking.

"Is it okay if I take Toria up to my room, for a little bit?" I whispered.
Mom looked up and walked over to me.

"Are you okay, tiger?" she asked.
I just nodded. I knew that if I would talk now, I wouldn't be able to hold my tears.
Mom stroked my cheek.

"You sure?" she asked, concerned.
I just nodded again.
I could see that she didn't believe me, but she knew that I just needed some space now.

"Okay, sweetie. I'll call you when dinner's ready, all right?" She said and she kissed my cheek.
I nodded again and left the kitchen.

I took Toria, who was still in her stroller, out of it and carried her upstairs to my room.
I saw dad watch me with concerned eyes, but I ignored it. I felt this weird feeling towards him. Like I was mad at him, but I didn't know why.

I waked into my room and as soon as my door closed, I hugged Toria tightly and started crying.

I heard the door open and someone rub my back.

"Is everything alright, tiger?" dad asked.

This weird feeling against him got stronger and without me even realizing it, I snapped at him.

"Just go away, Wilmer. I'm not in the mood"

I guess he was as shocked as me, cause he quickly pulled away and looked at me with a weird expression on his face.

"Are you sure everything's alright?" He asked.

"I said fuck off" I snapped again, against my own will.

"Emma, there's a limit. Don't talk to me that way" he said sternly.

"Whatever" I mumbled.

"Emma, not whatever. You don't talk to your parents that way. I was only trying to help you" he said.

"You're not my parent and I don't want your help. Now if you'll please fuck off and leave me, I'd appreciate that a lot"

"Emma, what's wrong with you? What happened?" It looked like he was gonna cry and I totally understood him.
What the hell was wrong with me? What did he ever do to make me act like this to him?

"Just leave" I whispered, before I saw him stand up an leave he room. Clearly confused.

"I fucked up, Toria. I really fucked up" I cried, as I hugged her tightly.
