Chapter Forty Three (part 1)

*Will's POV*

I sat in my car and watched Jasmine and the guys leave. This was unbelievable. I knew I shouldn't have came along with Charlotte to this appointment. It would only cause drama.

And what the fuck was up with Adam and Butch? Like could they have been more obvious!? I'm sure those two were pumping shit into her head right now, without even knowing or understanding the whole situation.

"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!" I yelled banging the steering wheel. I could feel her eyes on me. I wanted to tell her to get the hell out of my car and walk but what would that solve? Plus she was pregnant, so I'd be a bad guy if I did.

"Will, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have asked you to come? I just assumed that you'd want to see the baby." she spoke softly.

"Asked? You practically begged me all week to come with you?!"

"I said I was sorry, okay?!"

"No Charlotte, I'm the one that should be sorry. You shouldn't have to go through this." I apologized. "Especially alone."

"Will, it's okay. We'll figure something out." she spoke, as tears formed in her eyes. "Why didn't you tell her yet?"

"I wasn't ready. I'm too afraid that if I do, she'll leave."

"Will, she's going to find out one day. I'm not saying that I'm going to be the one to tell her, but you can't put this off for much longer. It'll only make things worse once she does know because you've kept it from her for so long." she said rubbing her belly. She was right. But how selfish was I really for trying to be happy? I didn't want to lose Jasmine, AT ALL. And I meant it when I said it. She was everything to me.

When she left before, I was a wreck. Life didn't seem like it was worth living anymore. Nothing felt worth it. The women I slept with to try and forget about her, none of them compared to her. They were all the same to me. I refused to go back to that place ever again. I never intended on hurting Jasmine in the first place but after she'd given me another chance, I vowed that I wouldn't ruin it. I had finally earned her trust back and I wasn't going to lose it.

But then Charlotte wound up pregnant. How could I have been so stupid? I barely remember that night but I'm sure I used protection. It wasn't like me not to. With Jasmine, I knew what I was doing. I wouldn't exactly say I planned it because I never thought she would get pregnant but things happen.

"Look, I'll tell her. When I'm ready."

"And were you gonna even tell me you were getting married?"

"Yes, once the time was right."

"Will, I just want you to be honest right now, are you ready to make that commitment again? I mean, who's to say that once you tell her, she's going to want to marry you still?"

"No one but that's a risk I'm willing to take." I said as we got out of the car and crossed the street to our office building.

"Will, I'm not a child you know."

"Huh?" I asked as she motioned for me to look down at our interlocked hands. "Sorry." I said holding the door for her as she went inside the building. "I'm gonna order some Italian food. You want anything?" I asked as her phone rung. A confused look her on face as she picked up.

"Hello?......Tony?......What are you talking about?.......Yes I'm at work......How'd you know what I was wearing?......Hello?! Hello?! Shit!" she yelled hanging up, her face overcome with fear and panic.

"Char, what's wrong?"

"Tony's here." she said looking around.

"Okay, what'd he say?"

"He's gonna kill us." she said, tears rolling down her cheek.
