“Thank you,” Beckett said with a nod of acknowledgement. He knew he hadn’t always been the most responsible person but that didn’t mean he couldn’t change and he hoped that this would show Sofia that. He wasn’t sure he’d ever be able to get her back but hat didn’t mean he couldn’t be in her life and Harper’s, “Burgers, okay let’s do burgers. I wonder if the diner is still any good,” He said, “Have you taken her there yet?” They’d had many a date in the diner or at least spent a lot of time there. It was reasonably priced and easy to get to and casual and had fast food. What more could teenagers ask for?

Sofìa was trying. She wanted to trust in and believe in him but it was easier said than done. Every time she thought about Beckett, thoughts of how he was in high school kept circling her mind. “Oh, I hope it’s still good. If it’s gone downhill, I’ll just have to move again.” Sofìa exaggerated, a wide smile quickly moving across her features as she thought about the diner and their past dates there. “Not yet, I’ve been cooking for her every night but she’s already getting sick of my cooking. I don’t think I’ve been there since we moved- have you?”

“Well yeah, it wouldn’t be considered suspicious here because everyone has abilities or knows about them,” Tanner smiled, “Me and Tess? Yeah, we’re very close. Kind of the only biological family I have left and she’s very important to me.”

“They made a fair point then, suggesting you work here instead of in a busier city. In the grand scheme, you could probably help more people in Grove.” Sofìa responded, smiling as she listened to him talk about his sister. “That’s so good to hear, that you two are close. It’s so sad when families are separated, I’m glad it’s not like that for you.”

“Buy it? It’s one of the beverages offered for free at the refreshments table,” Billie almost snorted in amusement. “Oh yeah I mean… it’s fruit punch flavored. Any other fruits you’re picking up on there, Sherlock?”

“Really? Was it the orange coloured one?” She asked, “I turned my nose up at that one!” Sofìa exclaimed, before pulling the cup closer to her nose pretending to smell it like a wine tasting. “Strawberries, maybe?”

“Well this is a forest,” Ajay pointed out. “The types of animals we could be running into besides squirrels is very vast. A little too vast for my liking.”

“Out of all the animals it could be, please let it be a squirrel. Please.” Sofìa all but pleaded. “If it’s a bear, I’m telling you now that I’ll sacrifice you.”

“Now that I think about it… they were kind of lame,” Dallas admitted with a little frown. “Maybe I’m just no fun?”

“Perhaps they just needed more time to think of their excuses, or they’re planning a surprise for you.” She offered up before throwing the ball back towards him. “Don’t be ridiculous, this is plenty fun. They’re the ones missing out. I’ll tell them for you if you want?”

“Hear what?” she asked, trying to catch what Sofia was talking about. “Isn’t that just the wind?” Winnie then questioned when she heard a rustling.

“You didn’t hear that?” Sofia asked again, the worry quickly building. “I don’t think that’s the wind, I can’t feel it.” Maybe she was overthinking it, but she couldn’t get her mind off it. “Can you see anything?”

“Because I checked the books and came up with a business plan and an whole year’s worth of advertising campaigns all before I even applied for a loan that I used to pay for half of it. Now are you gonna take this decision seriously or are you going to continue to act like my mother?” Beckett asked with a smile and a raised brow. He saw a pout on Harper’s face and crouched down to her level again, “How about if you’re an extra good girl and have a nice healthy lunch, I’ll get you a small ice cream afterward?” He said, poking his daughter’s cheeks gently and playfully, “Huh, okay, come on,” He said, continuing to poke until she giggled, “That’s my girl,” He said, taking her hand and standing up to smile at his ex, “Alright, where should we go?”

It wasn’t completely her intention to be so negative towards him and his intentions for his business structure but it was weird for her to see him be so organised about it. Maybe she just hadn’t noticed it before. “Okay, sorry, sorry.” Sofìa said, her hands going up as she talked. “I’ll trust you with it.” She spoke, despite the fact that they didn’t really need to check in with each other about things like this anymore and ignoring the fact that at times she didn’t believe the trust herself. Sofìa laughed easily as she watched him trying to get Harper to laugh. She missed this. Watching him interact with their daughter and watching the love between them. “Hmm,” Sofìa hummed, “What are you hungry for? Burgers, maybe?”

“I don’t really know what you’re doing wrong.”

Sofìa sighed in response, “Some help wouldn’t be horrible.” She said as she started to pull the screws apart to try again.

As Sofìa listed off facts about Harper, Wes could feel his grin getting wider and wider. He was so distracted by the fact that Sof had had a baby that he hadn’t even thought that this was just such an amazing thing. His best friend in the entire world had a child, a whole new human that he was going to get the chance to watch grow up, to help her with learning, to be a role model in her life. “She sounds amazing. I can’t wait to get to know her,” he beamed, pausing for a moment. “Can I read to her? Like obviously it doesn’t have to be tonight or anything, but I’ve got so many books from my childhood that I think she’d love.”

“She is pretty amazing, I think we really lucked out- I’m completely unbiased, of course.” She answered, despite the circumstances and stress that led up to having Harper at the end of the day Sofìa did feel lucky. “Absolutely, I think she’d like that,” Sof said before turning to Harper, “Do you want uncle Wes to read to you?” Harper’s eyes immediately lit up at the idea, “I think she’ll love that, actually. Nothing too hard, though, she’s still learning to follow along. You can tonight, if you’d like? Or any time, really.”

“Well I mean there’s this whole debate about nature and nurture, and how the kid’s intelligence can come from both or just one–” he stopped in his tracks, “But that is not what you wanted to hear. Well, with Beckett in her genepool she’s always going to be at a disadvantage,” he teased with a wink, “but don’t you worry– I’ll tutor her. Teach her everything I know. She’s going to be a smart kid if I have anything to do with it.” Wes chuckled, highly entertained at the thought of an infant Harper trying to put together her cot. “It’s not even that I lose it all the time, even when I’ve got it I forget to reply to people for weeks at a time. I’m not made for all this internet socialising business,” he replied, shifting in the tent to make room for the blankets. “No, no. You take them. It’s my fault for forgetting them. I want you to be comfortable, seeing as I was the one who convinced you to come out here in the first place.”

She smiled as she listened to him start talking about the science behind it all, whilst she barely understood most of it Sofìa could easily listen to him talk about science- or really anything for hours on end. “I’m sure it won’t hinder her too much,” She said, playing along with the teasing, “I mean, I haven’t noticed it yet but, time will tell right?” Sofìa laughed before gasping, “Are you trying to tell me I don’t have to pay for someone else to tutor her? She starts school next year, will you be free for the next thirteen years of your life?” It was mostly a joke, but Sofìa would be glad to have help with school work if she got stuck trying to help Harper with any of it. “Don’t be ridiculous,” She said as she rearranged the blankets to be more comfortable around them before fluffing one to go over them. “Come here, we can share it.”

“Work,” Tanner said, “I have a medical degree but I also have biological manipulation so someone with abilities told me it would be best to find a job in a place like HQ so I didn’t get in trouble for using my abilities to save lives. In a regular hospital, it’s a lawsuit waiting to happen,” He paused, “Plus my twin sister’s here too and she’s kind of the only biological family I have left so here I am.”

“I have never thought of it like that,” Sof admitted, “I have healing abilities but I’ve never thought about how many people without abilities would find it suspicious. It’s so normal here.” She spoke. “Are you guys close?” 

[sofiaweisman]

wcsleyevans​:

“That doesn’t sound like a guy who tries,” Wes countered, knowing full well that Beckett’s version of trying was far, far different from his. Ever since the guy had started hanging around them in school, trying to get close to Sofìa, taking her away from him, Wes had had a strong dislike for him. It changed the dynamic of their friendship, which to Wes, was completely perfect. He couldn’t forgive him for that. “I know,” he nodded calmly, showing a blasé exterior, but internally, Wes was jumping for joy. No more Beckett in the way of them being together. Now all he had to do was make a move, which would prove to be a lot easier said than done. “Enough about Beckett. Tell me more about Harper. I want to know everything there is to know about her.”

Despite saying otherwise she still had the hope of her and Beckett still being a family in the future, but most of it depended on Beckett. She had hoped that he could do better, so that she could have more faith in him and that they could be happier than last time. Sofìa was glad that he had changed the topic, it still made her upset to talk about their yet again failed family. Starting to smile, Sofìa answered, “She was born on the twenty first of July, blueberries are her favourite food and... ‘no’ is her favourite word.” She said with a laugh; she could easily talk about her daughter all day. “She likes it when we-” Sofìa paused, it wasn’t a ‘we’ situation anymore. “I read books to her. She likes ‘The owl who was afraid of the dark.’ Harper thinks the owl is cute.”

“Oh come on,” Wes sighed, “You’re plenty smart enough– maybe not my levels of smart enough, but that’s genetic and unattainable,” he joked, running his hands through his hair like the legend Annabel Porter. He wanted to laugh at her pregnancy comment, but thought that might just be a bit too mean. “You and Harper took two tries? Yeah okay, that explains it,” he said, grinning widely, imagining a baby trying to put together a cot. “You know what I’m like with my phone, of course I didn’t.” 

“Right, right, I forgot, it’s all about the genetics?” She teased, “Should I quit trying while I’m ahead?” Sof then asked with a deadpanned look as if she was being serious about it. “It would have been three, but Harper really started to pull her own weight on our second try. It was something new for her.” Sofìa shook her head in jest, “I should get you one of those lanyards for your phone, that way you don’t lose it again. We should be fine,” She said after a moment of thinking before turning move the blankets behind them around, “We can just fix these around to make it a bit more comfy for us,” 

[sofiaweisman]

alexajackscn​:

How did Alexa get stuck with Sofia when it came to building the tent. Probably because Alexa’s lack of the ability to say no. “THose are the only screws that came with it.”

Sofìa had always tried with Alexa, even with Alexa and Wes now broken up, she was still trying to be her friend- Sof didn’t know why Alexa didn’t seem to want the same thing. She sighed as she looked at the tent, typically she was good at building things from instructions but apparently not today. “We must have missed something. Were these poles meant for the sides?”

“Sure about which bit? The experience being good for me or doubling the profits?” Beckett asked but he could guess the answer based on her tone. He hated that she had so little faith in him that she thought he wasn’t taking things seriously. It was all that he wanted to prove to her since he found out about Harper, “That depends on what mommy says,” He replied to his daughter with a warm smile but then he shook his head. He wasn’t surprised to hear Wes’ name, they had already run into each other since arriving back in town, “No. I wouldn’t want to intrude on you guys. But maybe we could do something before? Ice cream, lunch, whatever. As a family.”

“Experience is good, sure, but how can you be so sure that it’s going to make a profit? It feels risky.” Sofìa answered, despite having no business experience herself Sofìa was unsure about the decision; maybe part of it was being unsure about Beckett’s involvement in it all, but it wasn’t something she was about to say to his face. Sofìa couldn’t help but light up at the words ‘as a family’. It gave her some hope for them, they both still wanted their family. “I’m sure someone would prefer if we got some ice cream,” She laughed with a pointed look towards their daughter. “But how about lunch?”

“No, you can,” James replied.

“Okay, are you ready?” Sofia asked before serving the ping pong ball, she couldn’t remember the last time she had played ping pong, and it showed in her serve. The ball made it above the net and across the table, a better result than she had expected.

“So I can either have life skills or academic skills? Sounds about right,” he chuckled. Wes gaped in shock. “Three weeks? Jesus Sof. Even I wouldn’t have taken that long.” It felt good to joke with her again, like he’d always done. Harper was a great addition to his life, to Sof’s life, if entirely unexpected– but behind it all, it was the same old Wes and Sof it had been since middle school. Wes laid down on the floor of the tent, realising just how uncomfortable the ground was. Camping really was not his thing, so he was very unprepared. “I don’t think we can, love. Not when I forgot the sleeping mats. And I’ve only got one sleeping bag…”

“Yeah, didn’t you know? That’s why I didn’t go to uni, no academic skills.” Sofìa paused before laughing, “And, well, you know the whole pregnancy thing.” She said, still laughing before stopping, looking at him with an apaed expression. “Hey! It took us two tries to do this with two people. That was with a newborn baby!” Sofìa tried to defend herself, the laugh coming back quickly. Sofìa was glad that it didn’t take them long to revert back to how they were before... life became what it was. “Did you not read my ‘do you have everything?’ message?”
