Ber had had a good time with London, he'd been thrilled to get to play with Sunny, even getting to help feed her and such. Their parents had even come over and stayed a while so they could play with the tiny baby. Though Berlin was still a little wary about the whole Jaze-going-off thing. Though she had brushed it aside for now. She had said her goodbyes as Jaze text her about dinner and then made her way home with the baby.
Ber opened the door and made her way in, looking for Jaze until she spotted him on the sofa with Claire. Her eyes automatically narrowed as she seen the skinny, pretty girl on her sofa. Cousin? Really? Pfft. Ber tilted her head. "Hey." she said, nodding to them slightly since her arms were full with Sunny. She sighed through her nose as she looked over Claire again. Can you blame her? She'd just had a baby, barely slept and still had some of her baby weight and so you can imagine how her own mental self image was right then.
Ber then moved to the kitchen with the baby, keeping the half asleep baby to her chest as she set down her purse and diaper bag, setting one of the already made up formula bottles in the little warming thing. She'd become adept at holding Sunny and eating at the same time. Though it didn't end with eating. She was also capable of typing, reading, brushing her hair and so on. She'd had to learn since there were days where the tiny baby would squeal if Berlin put her down.

Jaze smiled widely at Berlin as she came in. "Her Ber, this is Claire!" He said happily. Claire smiled and waved, moving her feet slightly. "Hey." She said, watching the other girl with the baby. She raised her eyebrows as Ber moved to the kitchen, frowning slightly. She looked at Jaze, still looking skeptical. "Did I do something...?
Jaze frowned as well and shook his head. "No. Hold on.." He patted her legs so that she would move them. Getting up, he made his way to the kitchen and leaned against one of the counters. "Hey babe... Did everything go okay at London's?" He asked, watching her and then looking to Sunny. He wondered what got her so down.

Ber looked up from her bottle making to look at him, frowning so very slightly. She didn't even answer his question, "That's your cousin? That pretty little girl hanging all over you is your fucking cousin? Really, Jaze? Really?" she said and sighed, rocking Sunny a little. She didn't know if she could make herself believe it. She didn't know what she could do about the whole thing, but she just felt so paranoid and so concerned that after their arguments, after their baby raising issues and how her body had changed that he was happy to be with her. Was this maybe not some clever ploy to fuck with her? Make her mind settle over something that was happening behind her back? she didn't know, but she was not calm and collected right then.

Jaze was surprised about the outburst she just displayed. He stared at her, frowning and shaking his head. "Genetics makes me have a good looking family, so sorry about that." His voice held sarcasm as he spoke, clenching his jaw. "Look, that is my cousin. I don't know how you want me to prove it but that is my aunt's daughter. Yeah, she's pretty. Big deal." He shrugged and sighed, running his hand through his hair. "What is wrong? Seriously, why the hell are you so mad?"

Ber shook her head at his sarcasm, listening to him go on about genetics and whether she'd choose to believe him or not. Though when he asked what was wrong she sighed through her nose. "Like it even matters to you. I'm just the fat mother of your child, right? The one who none of your friends have met, the one who got blown off so you could go meet you drop dead gorgeous cousin. Yeah. That's me." she said, though her voice cracked toward the end as she moved past him with Sunny and the bottle.

Jaze's jaw dropped at what she said, watching her move past. "What the hell Ber? Where is this coming from?" He shook his head, frowning. "I've never called you fat or anything. Hell, I don't even think you are... And why would you want to meet my friends? They're jerks most of the time. And I would have invited you to meet Claire but you were going to London's." He sighed, frowning. He just didn't understand why she was acting like this and where it was coming from. Most of his friends smoked pot and did other types of drugs, so he doubted she wanted to meet them. It never was an issue before.
Claire frowned, hearing their voices before getting up and moving to peek into the kitchen. "Is everything okay? Should I go...?" She frowned, her lips pouting slightly.

Ber shook her head, turning back to look at him. "I never said you had said those things! I'm just stating the obvious, Jaze!" she said and shook her head. Then she heard Claire and turned back around to look at her, eyes narrowed. She looked over her face and her pout. "If I hear you talk again? I will kill you." she told her and nodded once. "And don't go. I will." she said, carrying on out the kitchen with the baby after picking up her bags once more before heading to the door.
She knew if she stayed longer and Claire spoke again she'd hit her. She really, really would.

Jaze was shocked. He didn't ever expect her to threaten his family. He shook his head and moved past Claire, following Ber. "Where the hell will you go Berlin? Seriously, you're acting ridiculous about this. Just sit down so that we can just talk. Claire can go and whatever."
Claire paled slightly when she was threaten, shocked that his girlfriend just threatened her. What did she do? She didn't think she was doing anything out of the ordinary. Hell, she was thinking Ber was crazy by now.

Ber felt crazy right then. She shook her head. "No! Stop! Just.. stop. Leave me alone. I heard.. I heard some of Londons friends talking today. About you. About what you do at work.." she said and looked around him, her eyes shiney. "Am I that bad that you'd need to resort to the women at your job? Really?" she asked and bowed her head slightly. She moved the bottle, feeding sleepy Sunny as she stood there arguing with Jaze about whether he was being true to her and still trying to keep herself from hitting Claire in her stupid, pretty, pouty face.

Jaze shook his head, his eyebrows furrowing in confusion. "What I do at work? Really?" He sighed and leaned against the wall. "I have to flirt, Berlin. How do you think I even get to keep the damn job? I'm an asshole to the boss and the only reason he keeps me there is because I get the girls to keep buying drinks. Any numbers I get? Go in the trash. I haven't touched any of them, not once. Anything I do at work doesn't mean a fucking thing Ber... Do you really not trust me?" He knew that if she didn't trust him, he would book it. He was changing his old ways for her and the fact that she couldn't even see that hurt him deep. He didn't know where he would stay if he did leave but he knew that going with Clair would be the worse idea. Maybe Lucas's? Or god forbid, his parents...

Ber looked up at him. "They said it was more than that. They told me you don't just flirt.." she said softly, leaning herself against the wall. "And it's not that I don't trust you, Jaze. But look at me.." she murmured. Though she couldn't look up at him, just kept her gaze on Sunny who was still sucking at her bottle. London's friends had made a big point of telling her she was making a mistake being with Jaze. Telling her of his ways which of course she had not seen from between the time they'd slept together to her coming back. They told her how he was quite the ladies man and flirting at work was not all he did to keep the women coming back. And being an emotional wreck who was still 20lbs over her normal weight and who couldn't even fit her boobs in to her normal, already huge, bras, you can imagine how well she took it.

Jaze shook his head and clenched his jaw. "Yeah, and I see a girl that I love with the only other girl I could love in her arms." He sighed and looked at his feet. He made a point to not go too far with the girls at work, knowing how hurt Ber would feel if she thought he was doing what she was accusing him of. "Tell me the truth, do you trust me or not? Do you really believe what those guys are saying?" He asked, still staring at the floor. Would she really believe someone else's word other than his?

Berlin eventually looked up, "Of course I trust you." she said softly. "It's just.. I knew how you were before. I .. I'm sorry. It just sounded like how you used to be." she said quietly and sighed. She let her gaze fall back on to Sunny and sighed gently, noticing the baby was no longer interested in her bottle and had closed her eyes. "I need to put Sunny to bed." she said and walked back in to the apartment, heading to the bedroom however. Not to the nursery, looks like Berlin intends to sleep beside her daughter tonight. She paused at the doorway, "I'm sorry, and I'm sorry about what I said to your cousin. She can stay. I just.. She.." she murmured, fading out. "Nevermind." she breathed and headed in to the bedroom, closing the door.
Ber just felt so awful. About everything. And she may be quiet and pensive now though her rage will most likely re-surface..

Jaze watched Berlin silently, not sure what to say to be honest. He had told her that he loved her. Wasn't that a sign he changed? He's told her about what his boss expected from him. Why people were going around saying that he was doing more than simple flirting? Was someone out to get him? Jaze shook his head and sighed, waiting for the door to close before looking to Claire. "Sorry about... well, yeah." He smiled sheepishly and lifted away from the wall. "I think that we'll have to catch up later though... go ahead and take some of the Chinese food and all." He took her to the kitchen to give her what she had ordered.
"I understand Jaze. I'm a girl. I think I know where she's coming from." She gestured at herself and smiled a bit. "I'll wear a regular shirt next time." She smirked and hugged him quickly before taking the food and leaving, calling for a cab.
Jaze watched her leave before cleaning up in the kitchen, not feeling all that hungry anymore. Making sure the food was put away, he hesitated before going to the bedroom. Quietly, he got pajama bottoms out, glancing to Ber and Sunny on the bed. He sighed and shuffled back to the door, thinking that she'd want some personal time tonight.

Berlin had kept her eyes on the baby, stroking her back as she laid there. She listened as Jaze shuffled around the room, she didn't speak until he was at the door. "You just don't get it, do you? How could you." she sighed, finally looking up. "How would you feel if for my job I had to flirt with other guys? I had to act like I was interested in them? Would you be okay with that?" she sighed, looking up at him. She just.. she couldn't bare the thought of him having to lure girls in to thinking he was in to them just for a job. And she couldn't work out why he thought it was okay.
