Habits Of My Heart °Jeffrey Dean Morgan

Chapter 31

"Emma...open the door, please" I sighed, placing my hand on the cold wood panel. 

I was a complete idiot and I should never had talked to her like that. I was just mad at Scott and I didn't mean what I said to her,  I regretted every words that flew straight out of my mouth like hundred bees leaving their beehive. 

"Jeffrey.." She cried, opening the heavy wood door slowly. 

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it babe" I stated, wrapping my long arms around her small shaking body. 

"I have to leave tonight.." I sighed, rubbing her back slowly. My chest tightened as I said the words - I didn't want to leave her at all. "Already?" She asked, looking up at me with red and wet eyes. I slowly nodded, pressing her into my chest. 

"Can I come with you?" She suddenly asked with a low voice, nuzzling my chest. 

"I need to ask Greg first" I responded with a doubtful voice, looking down at her beautiful face. 

"What about Norman?" She asked as I wiped away her tears. "I don't know, Scott only wanted me on set, but I think they are informed about what happened to Norman, don't you think?" I replied, cupping her cheek. 

"Maybe Jeffrey" She said with a voice filled with sadness and sorrow. 

" I didn't mean what I said earlier, you know that.. right?" I asked, looking down at her stunning ocean blue eyes. "I know Jeffrey, you just scared me.. you have never talked to me like that before" She sighed, pulling away. 

"I'm truly sorry, I'm not perfect, I make mistakes, I hurt people, but when I say sorry I really mean it" I said, placing a dry kiss on her forehead.

I hated seeing her so sad and I felt so guilty for making her feel scared. I knew I didn't say something really awful to her, but sometimes words hurt more than actions.

"You don't hurt people.. stop saying that, you're only hurting me in bed" Emma whispered, followed by a sweet chuckle. I couldn't help but smile when a big smile formed her face. 

"You're my world" I said, placing a soft kiss on her lips. 

"I love you" She replied, squeezing my cheeks. 

Emma suddenly pulled away from me and walked towards the kitchen, "Sorry, but i'm really hungry" She laughed and wriggled her bottom. I slowly followed her and I couldn't help but stare at her, she looked so beautiful. I'm a very lucky man I said to myself before grabbing my phone that lay on the kitchen counter. I texted Greg and showed Emma the message before sending it. 

Jeffrey: Hey Greg! I don't really wanna leave Emma, we just found out that she's pregnant and she's really needs me.Can I bring her to set? Hope you understand. Sent at: 5:14pm

I placed my phone on the kitchen counter again and looked down at my ring. "Emma I need to tell you something" I said, smiling at her. "Did he say yes?" She asked, walking closer to me. I nodded and she wrapped her arms around me.
