Jaden was bouncing on the bed, his energy levels always elevated just before a show, but somehow he was more rambunctious than usual. Megan smiled as she looked at the bouncing boy on her bed.
“What are you so chirpy bout, honey? I thought you were used to this?”
“I am! But Richie is coming to the show.”
Megan frowned, she wasn’t sure where he was going with this and not sure she wanted to know.
“What does Richie have to do with this?”
The bouncing ceased and he sat down next to his mom. The blue of his eyes reminding her of the man she used to love with her heart and soul.
“Well this time you won’t be coming alone, that’s all.”
This was not good! Not at all!
“Sweetie, listen to me. Richie is a dear friend, he might not even come. He is a busy man. I don’t want you to be heartbroken when that happens.”
“Yeah, yeah I know. Rockstars are always busy, but he’ll make it.”
“How did?...”
He rolled his eyes dramatically.
“CD’s remember? He is on your Bon Jovi cds?”
She grabbed the boy, tickling his sides.
“Oh YOU!!!”
“Pleeeaaaseeee stop!”
“Please stop who?”
“Moooooommm, geeesshh!! I’m gonna pee my pants!!”
She didn’t let up.
“Who’s the best mom in the world?”
“You are! You are..moooooooommm!”
She let him fall back on the bed, he was panting but the smile on his face tucked at her heart.
“Sweetheart I know you are excited about Richie coming…”
His eyes twinkled as he interrupted her.
“All the dads always go to the shows, now at least I can say I had Richie Sambora watched me jump! Isn’t that friggin’ cool?!”
She saw the hope in his eyes and fear crawled into her veins.
Please God, don’t let him fall in love with Richie, this could complicate things even more! Maybe it was time to sit him down and tell him about his father…
“Lets go tiger, we have a show to go to!”
“Woohooo!”
