Back To Christian chapter 5 & 6

Chp, 5

Justin can't stop thinking about her.
"Daddy, you paying attention?"
"Yes!"
"Daddy's lyin"
"No Daddy's not lying!"
"Okay, we play!"
"What do you want to play?"
"Piano." Christian runs to the instrument, and sits down. "Play my song, Daddy!"
Justin sits down beside him, and shows him how to play the first measure. "This song has four beats per measure. You hold the key, and say one, two, three, and four."
"One, two, free, or," Christian says.
Justin grins, "Just keep practicing that, Buddy. I'm going to lie down on the couch."
Christian does as his father asks.
Justin listens to the toddler's musical attempts. The boy has skills Justin thinks. He's hitting the right keys, though the melodies off, it'll come in time.
Christian approaches his father, "Daddy take nap?"
"Sometimes, you want to take one with Daddy?"
"Yay!"
"Let's sleep on Daddy's bed, it's bigger!"
"It has water. Bed's squishy!" He giggles.
"Yes, it is." Justin lifts Christian up on to the bed. They lie beside each other, and chat, until Christian falls asleep.
Justin takes a short nap, and waits for his son to awake. He closes his eyes, because Christian likes to wake up his father."
"Daddy up!"
"I'm up!"
"No you down!" Christian gets on top of his father. Daddy sick!"
"No Buddy, I just got a boo boo."
Christian kisses his father's belly,” All better!"
Justin's asked to go back to his doctor, because of his test results. She suggests he has more tests done.
He doesn't want to be away from his son. She tells him the tests won't last long. He agrees to have them done.
Justin's Mom, Lynn Harless, cares for Christian, while Justin's having his scan. She brings him into see Justin, who's a bit sleepy.
"Daddy needs nap!"
"The doctor gave Daddy medicine that made him sleepy. That's why he's in the special bed. He can come home with us. We have to be quiet, though, because Daddy requires rest. Would you like to go on the bed with Daddy?"
"Peeeeeeeze!"
She lifts him up onto the bed. "There you go!"
"Thanks Grammy."
"Sure Sweetheart, give Daddy a kiss." The little boy as his Granny tells him.
Justin whispers, "Thanks Christian. I'm sorry we can't play today."
"It okay. Daddy you get better." He covers his father with the blanket, and rests his head on Justin's chest.
Justin's doctor finds the two adorable. She's impressed by their bond. He's better off with that little boy, and if he needs treatment that child will help get him through.
"Would you like to......"
Justin interrupts her,” Go on a date?"
"Sure, but that's not what I wanted to ask you."
"Sorry about that."
"It's okay. I wanted to know if you wanted to get ready to go home."
"Certainly, so Christian and I can make up on our lost time."
"You two can talk, but that's about it. I want you resting."
Justin groggily replies, "Alright."
His mom brings him home, and has him get in bed. She watches him fall asleep, and mumble, about things.
When Justin's more alert, he takes his doctor out on a date. Lindsey's a sweet lady, and the two get a long really well. She loves Christian.
Justin balances his time between the two. Aside from his mom their strength.
Lindsey's overjoyed Justin doesn't have anything seriously wrong with him, just something minor, that's treatable with medication.
The medicine resolves the problem, and his pain subsides. He must stay on it though, or it will come back.
Justin's surprised a year has now passed by. It is now February, and Christian's Birthday is coming up. Justin has big plans for his son's special day!

Chp. 6

Christian awakes on his forth Birthday, rushing into his father's room. "Daddy, Birthday today!"
Justin stares at him bleary eyed, yawning, "Happy Birthday Christian!" He quickly picks up his glasses off of his night stands, putting them on his face. Justin runs to the kitchen, where his son, now is.
"Daddy's out of breath!"
"Nah, I'm just not used to marathons at six in the morning! Will you hold up, Buddy, till Daddy gets the camcorder?"
"Yes Daddy!"
Justin grabs the cam, shoving the batteries in it. "Go ahead, Christian."
Christian opens his gifts, smiling, and having a great time. He makes it to the last one. "What's this?"
"A present!"
"Piano. I love this the most!"
"Look inside of the bench, Christian!"
He lifts it open. "What’s this?"
"Those are my first songs I learned how to play. I always loved music like you do. We're going to go see a concert tonight, with lots of instruments."
"Yay! I can't wait!" Christian plays on his piano all day long. This piano's missing something!"
"What is it missing?"
"I be right back!" He returns with the photo of him with his parents. He places it on top, like Justin has it." That's good!"
Justin grins, "You're too cute! We should get ready for the concert, I guess."
Justin dresses very slick, curls in full force, shaved baby face, white button down dress shirt, with tie, black pants, and a nice pair of dress up shoes.
Justin's son could be considered his mini me. He has Justin's look down to a "T". They'll be two of the best dressed at the show.
Christian is enjoying the show. He's well behaved for a four year old, very quiet around others like his father. The show goes to intermission, and returns.
"We have some special guests in the house tonight. Multi-talented, millionaire Justin Timberlake is here celebrating his son's birthday. Now you all may think Justin got in for free, but he didn't he paid the full price to get in. Justin, why don't you come up here with Christian?"
Justin walks up with his son. Christian looks at his father not sure what to think.
"Justin, would you two like to play with the band?"
"Please Daddy!"
"Alright, I'd be honored!"

We're going to start of with a special piece that we've never played before. Justin wrote this song, and produced it. It's dedicated to his son Christian. He would like to sing it, and play the melody on the piano, with our musicians."
Justin sits down at the piano bench, placing his hands gently on the keys. He sticks his foot on the petal below, and begins.

"Recall the first time you were in my arms,
Safe and warm,
Vowed to keep you from harm.

You're my pride and joy,
An amazing little boy.

I cherish every moment with you
The darkest days you get me through
With you're personality, that's pure and true.

You're my pride and joy,
An amazing little boy.”

Happy Birthday, Christian" Justin hugs his son, as a loud applause is heard, but Justin blocks out the sound preoccupied with seeing his son's reaction to the song. He takes a bow, and Christian follows.
"I won't be performing this song anymore. Those of you who had the opportunity to hear it I hope you enjoyed it. I wrote this song solo for my son, not to be a marketed item. I'm sure some critics will bash the content in the song, or how the melody was composed, but it doesn't matter, because this is for Christian."
The crowd applauds him.
Justin sits back down on the bench, and points for Christian to do the same. The instruments begin to play. Justin and Christian accompany them on the classical piece.
People are impressed that the four year old can play this well. The two get an outstanding ovation for their performance. Justin says,” Thank You, for letting me perform tonight. I know I'm not a classical musician, but I hope you enjoyed me and my son's rendition of this piece, and the non classical piece for my son. God bless and have a wonderful evening." Everyone cheers, as they take a quick final bow, and exit the stage, heading back to the audience.
They manage to get out before the press gets to them, something Justin doesn't want to deal with. It's all over the news the next day, but nobody has an audio of the performance. Jive Records wants him to record the song, but Justin refuses despite the demand for the song. They eventually give up on trying because Justin makes it clear that this wasn't written to make money, but to show his child how much he loves him.
