Part One Hundred & Four
I put the key in and started the car, as I was easing it off the driveway I caught Astons eye, just staring at me. I shook my head before putting the car in first gear ready to go. I looked back at him through the rear mirror and he was running his hands through the small amount of hair he had left before slamming the front door shut. I drove to Louise's replaying the argument we just had. I can't believe he called me a slut. My own boyfriend thought I was a slut. I arrived at Louise's a short time later and I was soon pulled into the living room for a long talk.
"He called you a what?" Louise asked, her eyes wide.
"Yeah, after I got pregnant on holiday in Miami he thought I was a slut, he just never told me." I shrugged, taking a sip of my water.
"Woah back up, pregnant in Miami?" Shit. I forgot it was only me and Ast who knew about it.
"Yeah, it was after I found out Danny cheated on me, I went out with the girls, got majorly pissed, slept with some guy and didn't use protection."
"Are you telling me I've got a niece or nephew that I don't know about?"
"No, I lost it Lou." I sighed as she gasped in shock.
"Oh my, I'm so sorry babe." Louise said softly before pulling me into a hug.
"It's fine don't worry about it, I've come to terms with it now anyway." I shrugged, knowing that me and Ast already had another baby on the way.
"You look shattered Jess, you go up to bed and we'll talk in the morning." Louise said as I yawned for like the fifth time.
"Alright, thanks again for this Lou." I smiled, getting up off the couch.
"That's what family's for." She smiled before I headed upstairs.
Once I was ready for bed I hopped in and grabbed my phone to set an alarm, ready to go pick up Lexi. I turned it on and saw numerous texts from Aston, nothing bothering to read the old ones I just read the latest one,
[I know you need time babe just please come back to me? I need you, Lex needs you, please don't take our baby away from me, I love you so so much, let me know you're okay? xx]
I sighed before texting him back,
[I'm not taking our baby away from you, I'll see you tomorrow when I pick Lexi up, I'm fine Ast]
I placed my phone on the bedside table before eventually falling to sleep.
Aston's P.O.V.
I slammed the front door behind me and leant back against it, resting my head on the door. I lasted almost two years without slipping up and in probably one of the most important moments of my life I slipped up. I sighed in frustration and kicked the door before pushing myself off and going into the kitchen.
I went to the fridge, got out a can and perched myself on the kitchen surface. After opening the can and taking a large mouthful, I held it in both hands in between my legs, tapping it with my fingers to some random beat in my head.
It wasn't that I left Jess through her pregnancy just because it wasn't my baby that she was carrying, it was because the woman I was head over heels in love with was carrying some other man's baby. And I think watching that would've been one of the hardest things I'd have to do, because at that point I was certain that I'd lost my chance with her for good. Kind of like right now. Unless Jess sees sense or listens to reason then I've lost her, and I'm way too gone on her to be without her.
Taking another mouthful of beer I glanced around the kitchen, my eyes instantly being drawn to the big portrait of Lexi that Jess already had before she moved in and insisted that we put up somewhere. It was Lexi when she was about three years old, so it was when they were both living in London permanently, and she had a flowery pink dress on with a simple pink headband with a small now on in her hair, clutching the monkey teddy that I'd bought her for the Christmas before. She was looking just towards the side of the camera, I'm guessing at Jess, with a big grin on her face as she was laughing. I have to admit it's a cute picture.
I smiled as I looked at the picture, before looking down at my hands and sighing as I thought about the current situation. If Jess left me then I wouldn't be able to see Lexi again. I know she's not my daughter, blah blah, but the bond that we've got isn't something that you can get overnight and I don't want to lose that either.
After finishing off my can, I put it in the bin before locking up and heading upstairs. Like I did every night, I checked on Lexi in her bedroom to see her fast asleep with one leg hanging out of the duvet. I laughed quietly under my breath before going into her room and carefully pulled the duvet over her leg again, making she was all tucked in before placing a gentle kiss on her forehead and leaving her bedroom, closing the door a little.
Once I was in our bedroom I decided against locking the door incase Jess came back or Lexi wanted to come in. I went into the en suite and did my nightly routine, choosing to wear my joggers to bed incase one of the girls came in. As soon as I was in bed and trying to get to sleep I was tossing and turning, not knowing where Jess was was killing me! I picked up my phone and sent her a quick text,
[I know you need time babe just please come back to me? I need you, Lex needs you, please don't take our baby away from me, I love you so so much, let me know you're okay? xx]
I didn't get a reply for another two hours, which resulted in me turning on the TV and putting a random film on. When Jess did reply she bluntly told me she was fine, not where she was, just..fine. I guess she knew that if she told me where she was I'd go after her which is probably not what she wanted. I knew she would've gone to Louise's anyway, there's no way she would've paid to stay in a hotel overnight when she knew her sister would take her in.
After that text it was much easier for me to fall asleep, but not half as easy as it would be if she was lay here next to me.
