Chapter 8: This Didn't Have To Happen

Cassie's P.O.V

Beckham and I have just received the happiest news any new couple would always want to hear, we're having a baby, I'm so excited and this shows that I wasn't the problem in me and Jamal's marriage, it was all him, when this is all over, if he finds another woman, hopefully, she doesn't want any kids because she'll be very disappointed to find out he shots blanks.

I'm so deep in thought I didn't even realize we made it to the hospital, they are sending Beckham to the ICU and sending me to the OB/GYN, once there he introduces himself as Dr. Reid (*Hint Hint*) begin to ask a lot of questions, "So, Mrs. Addams, Is this your first child?" he asks, "Yes, it is, it will be, um... should I be worried, I've never actually had kids" I asks when reality finally sets in about me having this child.

"You have nothing to worry about, first pregnancy is supposed to be the ones that determine whether or not the woman having the baby can maintain full control during the birth session" he says, "Uh-huh, right, so... When will I start to show?" I asks eagerly.

"Well, that part all depends on your eating habits, you seem to be in pretty good shape, I would say you would most likely show during the second trimester, the rest is all up to you, now I expect you and the father back here within 4 months so you guys can see and hear you baby for the first time, if you need anything else, here's my card, call me anytime," he says, shakes my hand and leaves the room.

I feel so warm and happy on the inside, a sensation I've never felt until the day I met Beckham, and now holding his child... I mean our child, I have to get used to saying that for now on, my thought process is jerked away when a nurse touches my shoulder.

"Are you Cassie Addams?" the nurse asks me, "Yes, that's me, is there something wrong with Beckham?" I ask in a panic, "He's fine, he wants to see you actually, he wants to know what happened during the OB/GYN meeting" the nurse says.

She grabs my hand and leads the way to Beckham's room, we get to room F-114, she opens the door and there's Beckham, looking like himself again, only just wrapped in bandages around his stomach and chest areas, he looks over at me and smiles.

The nurse lets go of my hand and closes the door behind her, I crawl onto the bed and get on top of Beckham, we just sit there and stare at each other in silence, deep down inside I think we bought knew what to say just by looking into the eyes of each other.

I hug Beckham and I feel him rub my hair, I pull away from the hug and just stare at him once again, "I'm so...." I was about to say but he shushes me with his finger, "It's not your fault, and it's not important, the only thing on my mind right now is wondering what to name my baby girl that is inside of you" Beckham says putting his hand on my yet to be bumpy stomach.

I let out a loud laugh and cover my hands over my mouth and can't help it any longer and I just burst out laughing all over again, "What makes you think it's a girl Beckham?" I say to him with my hands to my side. "Well, I don't know, call it a gut feeling if you will," He says with a smile.

"Okay, Mr. Gut- Feeling, what would you name your daughter if you had one and please don't say, Jessica," I say with a stern look on my face, "Wow Cas, have a little faith in me will you, I wouldn't name my child Jessica, I would name my daughter Nevaeh, what about you Cas?" Beckham asks me.

"That's a really pretty name Beckham, but I never really wanted a daughter, I always wanted a son, but if I were to have a daughter it would be Natalie, I don't know it's something about that name that I just love, but I want a boy Beckham, I want to name him after you," I say to Beckham with a smile.

"Another me, let me just say, my mom said I was a handful when I was younger," he says to me, "Beckham, you're still a handful," I say with a smile, "I'd say I was more of a mouthful in your case," he says and winks at me.

I look at Beckham and smash my lips into his, he kisses back and starts running his fingers threw my hair, things were getting heated between us, until we heard a knock at the door, I get off the bed and walk towards the room door.

It's Beckham's nurse, she came back with discharge papers, we fill them out and I help Beckham get dressed, and we walk outside the hospital, "Oh shit, I forgot we left the car back at the hotel, miles away, we can't walk, especially not you, okay I'll call a cab" Beckham says and pulls his phone out the bag I brought for him.

The cab arrives in minutes, we get in the cab and he gives the cab driver his address, "Why are we going to your house instead of back at the hotel?" I ask Beckham, "Well for starters, we are being hunted by our "spouses" they know our main spot is the hotel, I'm going to make a couple of calls and get my other car so we can get out of here.

"You mean, we're leaving our lives behind?" I say to him, "Yes, I refuse to raise my daughter and you here, and besides, where we are headed, there's no need for us to worry about them ever finding us again" Beckham says to me.

We get out the cab and pay the cab driver, he goes inside his house and I sit outside next to his car putting the bags he leaves on the porch into the car for him, after his house my house is next, Beckham goes back in his house for one more thing when I hear a car pull up.

I turn to see the car, and inside the car is Hannah, she doesn't notice me first so I text Beckham fast and tell him Hannah is outside, I don't have time to send it because I feel a burning sensation across my face.

"Did you just slap me?" I say to Hannah, she looks at me with so much anger, "Yes, I did, you whore, sleeping around with my man, why don't you go and please someone else, that is, I don't know, single" she says and walks closer into my personal space.

I push her from out of my bubble, she runs back towards me and I dodge her quickly, I'm not trying to fight her, she could hurt my baby, she stands back up and tries to punch me, I duck and walk towards the driver side of Beckham's car, she pulls me out the car by my hair.

I get myself off the ground, I punch her in her face and she falls to the ground, I thought that would be it, but then I feel her grab me by my hair again, this time she is pinning me down with her hands, when did this bitch get so strong.

I kick her in her stomach, she crumples over in pain, I glance at the door and see that Beckham is nowhere to be seen, my attention on the house is immediately placed to the ground again, she kicks me in my stomach and I let out a painful scream.

"No!" I yell, I fall to the ground, the blood between my legs begin to pour, Beckham runs out the house and I'm just there in a pool of blood and tears, "There's so much blood, there's so much blood" I say putting my hands all over the bloody ground.

I look up at Beckham, he stares at me, he has a hatred in his eyes that I've never seen before, it scares me, he walks towards me and hands me his phone to call 911, I call them and then I see him walk over to Hannah.

He looks at Hannah with such anger and hate, she just stands there smiling "What, have you never seen a woman on their period before Beckham" Hannah says and starts laughing, Beckham grabs her by her neck and starts choking her, she is weightless, Beckham has her feet off the ground.

He suddenly tosses her onto the ground, he walks over to me and asks where my keys are to my house, I tell him where they are, he says he'll me meet me at the hospital, he doesn't leave until the ambulance gets there, I get put on the stretcher and all I remember is hearing the sirens as I make our way back to the hospital for the second time today.
