California (book 3)

Chapter 60

Grayson's POV
(Next Morning)

I open my eyes and look up at the ceiling, I yawn as I stretched my arms out to touch Lilly's shoulder when I felt the pillow

I looked over to see no one, I sat up

"Lilly?" I say

I get outta bed and looked in the closet, she's not there, I looked in the bathroom in the tub, not there

"Lilly!" I say

I go into Bailey's room, I looked in his closet, not there, I noticed that Bailey's crib is empty

My heart starts to pick up "Lilly!, Bailey!" I say I walk into the living room and stopped myself

I backed up, and I looked at the guest bedroom door, I took a deep breath in but it didn't steady my breathing

I reached out, my hand is shaking so badly, I open the door and push it open, i stepped inside to see Lilly and Bailey laying on the bed, Lilly is asleep but Bailey wasn't

I pick up Bailey and hugged him, I kissed his head

"Dada" he says

"Hey B" I say, I look at Lilly and she's still sleeping

•••••

It's 2 in the afternoon and I'm sitting on the couch while Bailey's on the floor playing with his toys when there was a knock on the door

I stood and went to the door, I opened it to see Alex

"Hey" I say letting her in

"Hey" she smiles walking inside while I closing the door behind her

Alex sits on the couch, while I sat next to her

"So what's up?" I asked

"We never really hang out, I just wanna talk" she says

"you look like you wanna get something off your chest" I say

"What?" She asked

"What's Wrong?" I asked

She sighed "Jessica is suffocating me with this baby, I know I should be happy but I didn't want a child right now. I know Jessica feels that she's ready but I'm not" she says

"Listen, Calm Down do you think  I was ready when Lilly first told me she was pregnant?" I asked

"I don't know" she shrugged

"I wasn't I was scared I didn't think I could take care a human being that's looking up at me, that's depending on me, but here I am waiting on my twins to come" I say

"Yeah, but I just wish Jessica could of told me she's going to do it, I don't even know what the donor looks like" she says

I sighed "now what's wrong with you?" She asked

"Nothing" I shook my head

"Don't humor me, spill" she says putting a throw pillow on his lap" she says

"You spend a lot of time with Emily right?" I asked

"Yeah, Emily is over my place a lot,  she's been helping Jessica with baby stuff" she says

"Does she ever talk about, Ethan or Lilly or maybe Me?" I asked

"She complain about Ethan not taking out the trash, Why?" She asked

"I uh had a dream two days ago, it felt so real" I say

"What was it about?" She asked

"I was going to go pick Lilly from the hospital when I walked into her room, she's sitting on top of Ethan's lap, they were making out on the bed, Once I got her alone she told me how Ethan was nice to her and cared and loved her, she then told me that Bailey and the twins aren't mine, and that's when I woke up"  I say

"Oh, did you ask Emily anything?" She asked

"No. but I asked Ethan he started to get defensive" I say

"It was just dream" she says

"but it felt real, it felt more then real" I said

"But it wasn't" she says

"I feel like it was trying to tell me something" I say

"Like what?" She asked

"That Lilly, Bailey and the twins doesn't belong to me" I say looking up at her

"Like I stole them someone, from Ethan" I say

"Grayson, it was a dream, yes sometimes dreams feel real, but their not, Bailey and the twin are yours and Lilly is yours. there is no reasons you should be thinking like this" she says

"Your right, I'm being dramatic" I say

We silent until Alex spoke up

"One question" she says

"Yeah?" I asked

"You have black hair, Lilly had Brown so why do Bailey have dirty blonde?" She asked

"Lilly said when she was baby she had blonde hair, it darken as she got older" I says

"cool" she says
