H=what are you trying to say here
J=I think it's time to tell Voight
H=no it's not
J=Hailey why?
H=because Jay you wouldn't get it because you wouldn't get it
J=what do you mean
H=you are not the one puting your career on hold for this and having to stay out the job. This isn't your decision so just shut the hell up about it
Hailey got out the truck and stormed inside the district. Jay felt bad for putting pressure on her but at the same time he felt he was doing what was best for his child.
A few hours later Hailey was sitting in the locker room
J=Hailey can we talk
H=yeah we can
J=I'm sorry for making you mad I know it's not my decision but I just don't want what happened to Kim happen to you as well
H=It what and I'm sorry for storming off the way I did
J=you can tell Voight whenever you feel ready but please just be careful
H=I'm going to tell voight right now
J=are you sure you don't have to if you don't want to
H=I know but I need to
J=are you sure it wasn't just because of what I said earlier
H=maybe it was but what you said made me realize what I'm putting at stake here
J=okay then let's do it
They walked into Voights office
J=hank we got something to tell you
Voight=okay?
H=sarge, I'm pregnant
Voight=really
H=yeah I'm 10 weeks
Voight got up and hugged her
Voight=you're going to be a great mom
H=thanks
The next day
They decided to tell Jackie because today she picked Jesse up
J=hey Jackie
Jackie=hello Jay
H=umm we wanted you to know something
Jackie=what would that be? Are you getting a divorce
H=what?no
Jackie=well damn it that's too bad
(Hailey scoffs)
J=what we wanted to tell you was that Hailey is pregnant
Jackie=really
Jesse=yes mommy I'm gonna have a little brother or sister
Jackie=wow only been married 3 months and she already baby trapped you
Hailey=excuse me!
J=hey let's not start an argument in front of Jesse
Jackie=right we wouldn't want him to know your trying to replace him.
J=you got some nerves saying some shit like that to me you know that Jesse is my world and no one could ever replace him
Jackie=whatever you say
Jackie left
H=Am I making the right choice
J=what do you mean the right choice
H=keeping this kid I mean Jesse shouldn't feel replace
J=he won't let that's just Jackie talking shit
H=you're right I just I don't know how to do this parenting thing
J=you'll be fine okay I promise
H=thank you for being here like this and helping me through it all
J=that's what husbands are for
2 weeks later
It was Jesse's 2 weeks with Jesse( Jay gets him for two weeks than Jackie gets him for two weeks)
Jesse="daddy!!"he ran to hug Jay
J=hey buddy I missed you
Jesse I missed you too
Jackie=hello
J=well how nice of you to grace us with your presence
Jackie=I came to drop off my son
J=OUR son you mean
Jackie=whatever
She turned to Jesse
Jackie=bye sweetie I love you
Jesse=bye mommy I love you
Jackie=Hailey please don't feed him junk food the whole time
H=he doesn't just eat junk food
Jackie=well he said a few weeks ago y'all had spaghetti for dinner
J=what the hell is wrong with spaghetti
Hailey took Jesse into the other room and watched tv so he wouldn't hear his parents arguing
Jackie=it's very unhealthy
J=whatever you say
Jackie=so he needs healthy foods not a bunch of carbs
J=he has a fine diet here he doesn't eat a lot of junk food but we let him eat like a kid
Jackie=well I don't care what you want
J=well I don't give a damn if you like how I feed my child
Jackie=you know what y'all are ridiculous
J=oh and your not
Jackie=just keep feeding him like you want I'm sure as soon as that baby is born you won't care less about even seeing him
J=how could say that to me you know I would die a thousand times for that kid, you're just jealous that I have a wife who is pregnant with my child and you will die alone!!!
It was silent
Jackie left without saying a word
That night Jay was tucking Jesse in to bed
Jesse=daddy
J=yeah bud
Jesse=do you hate mommy
Jay was stunned by the question
J=no I can't hate your mom because if it wasn't for I would not have you
Jesse=why do y'all argue
J=because we disagree on things
Jesse=is it my fault
J=no! It's not your fault at all
Jesse=we did you mom divorce
J=because we didn't get along anymore
Jesse=was mom right?
J=about what
Jesse=when Hailey has the baby are you going to stop loving me
J=Jesse look at me, it doesn't matter who is born or what you do or what anyone else does there is NOTHING that can make me not love you
Jesse=really
J=really
Jesse=I love you daddy
J=I love you so much goodnight
Jay kissed his forehead before walking downstairs into his bedroom
H=hey
J=hey
H=what's wrong
J=Jesse just asked me if I was not going to love him after the baby is born because that's what his mother has been saying
H=Jay I'm so sorry
J=it's okay I explained to him no matter what I would always love him
H=that's good
J=but I am going to have a serious talk with Jackie about what she says around Jesse
H=I think you definitely should
J=I'm so glad you're having this baby though
H=so am I
