We walked for a little while before we finally got back to the house. I was actually shocked that my food had gotten there though.

I grabbed the bag of food then went into the kitchen and started to unpack it.

Colby got the hint to leave me alone since I was annoyed at the world right now.

As I was eating, the baby was rolling around and kicking me which was super uncomfortable.

All it took was one kick to the bladder though that made me have to pee.

"Ugh." I grunted then quickly made my way to the bathroom so I could pee. Unfortunately I didn't make it in time though and ended up peeing myself, which only made me burst into tears.

My body was going through something so incredible but so difficult that my emotions were all over the place.

"Jules?" Colby asked as I sobbed. "I peed myself." I cried out as he frowned.

"It's okay, sweetheart. That happens when you're pregnant. Come on, let's get you cleaned up." He said and took my hand and led me out of the room while I cried.

I appreciated how gentle Colby was being, considering he could have laughed at me.

He could have made fun of me or ignored my cries completely, but instead he was here to help even though I was being kinda mean to him.

When we got upstairs Colby grabbed some new clothes for me to wear and brought my dirty clothes down to be washed while I showered.

When I was finished he came upstairs and sat with me while I dried my hair, tears in my eyes.

"Are you feeling better after your shower?" He asked as I sniffled. "I don't know how much longer I can do this." I said quietly as Colby sat on the bed beside me.

"You're doing amazing, Julia. I know this has been hard for you." He said as I looked at him, tears falling down my face.

"All these emotions are hard...and my whole body is hurting and not cooperating with me." I said with a sniffle.

"I know, sweetheart. It's because it's doing something so amazing. You're literally creating a human being." He said as I nodded.

"And you're doing amazing. You can yell at me and cry around me, because it's the least I can do to help you through this." He said and wiped the tears off of my cheeks. "I love you." I said as he grinned and kissed me gently.

"I love you more." He said then took the brush that was next to me and positioned himself behind me.

"Now just relax for a second then we can go downstairs so you can finish your dinner." He said then gently started brushing through my wet hair.

"Don't you want to hang out with Sam? He came to visit you and you're up here with me." I said as he chuckled. "Shhh. It's fine, Jules. Just relax." He said gently.

I closed my eyes as he gently brushed through my hair. I couldn't get over how wonderful he was and how calming he could be.

I have been nothing but a bitch to him all night and he still would rather comfort me than be downstairs with his best friend.

I was lucky to have him.

Colby ended up combing through my hair and gently massaging my shoulders and scalp for a while before I was calmed down fully.

Once I was calm we made our way downstairs and to the kitchen so I could eat. "Go ahead and hang with Sam. He must be so bored." I said as I sat at the table.

"Just call me if you need anything, okay?" He asked then kissed my head.

"Okay." I said then took a bite of the food that was cold now. "Or you can come sit in the living room with us." He said as I nodded.

"I actually wanna do that. I miss Sam." I said as he chuckled. "Alright, get situated and I'll bring your food." He said as I stood up.

I was so beyond grateful for Colby on days like today because I felt like I was going to fall apart at any second.

It sucked that today was the day Sam came because he deserved a good time but knowing him, he didn't mind.

He was the best friend Colby could have and the best makeshift big brother I could ask for.

"Hey, Jules. How are you feeling?" Sam asked as I came into the room and sat on the couch next to him.

All the kids were in bed at this point so I could actually be honest about how I was feeling.

It wasn't like I didn't trust the kids with my emotions, I just didn't want them to worry.

"I'm so sorry, Sam. I feel like an emotional wreck." I admitted as he chuckled. "Yeah, I could assume that can happen when your hormones are going crazy." He said as I nodded.

"It's been tough. Colby's been great though. I'm just glad you're here so he can take a break from me." I said as he shook his head.

"We want you around, Jules. Even if you go all crazy bitch on us, we love you." He said then patted my shoulder.

"I love you, Sam. You're really the best. You know that?" I asked as he shrugged.

"I try my best. I just want you and Colby to be happy." He said then gave me a hug.

I was so grateful to have Sam in my life, and I was hoping that he would stick around here for a while to help keep us sane.

After everything that's happened, we needed some sort of support.
