About 2 weeks had passed and by this time I was 6 months along. My bump continued to grow slowly but I could definitely tell that the baby was growing. I was lucky enough in the early stages that I didn't have any morning sickness but now the only thing that I want to eat is pickles. But not just plain pickles. I wanted pickles and Nutella.
I rummaged through the fridge finding a jar of pickle spears. I went to the pantry and and grabbed the Nutella I knew we had.
I took the whole jar of pickels the jar of Nutella and a fork and sat down on the couch. I turned on a movie and began to eat.
Why does it taste so good? It should tast gross but instead it tasted like heaven.
It was around 5 o'clock when Elliot came through the door. He looked tired and worn out. I put the pickels and Nutella on the coffee table and got up. I walked over to him as he was taking his shoes off. He tired to give me a smile when he noticed me.
"Hard day at work?"
"You could say that."
I tried to give him a kiss but he pushed pass me. I followed after him as he went up the stairs and into the bedroom. I waited as he changed out of his suit. He had on the gray tie I bought him. Along with the watch.
He undid the strap of watch placing it on the side table. He sighed dropping down onto the bed. I walked over to him.
"Is everything alright?"
I crouched down placing my hand on his cheek but only for a second before he swatted it away. I stood up backing away slightly.
"Elliot...talk to me. What happened?"
The last part came out in a whisper. I couldn't tell if he was angry, sad or confused maybe a little bit of all.
"Stop. Just stop Dex."
"Oh...I'll uh just leave. You know what? No!"
Elliot sighed. He sounded tired and I think mad at this point.
"You need to tell me what's wrong! I want to help you! Just talk to me!"
"Get out."
"Whatever, I'll be downstairs when you want to talk about it."
"No. I mean, get out. All the way out. Out of my house out of my life. Leave."
I was stunned. Is he kicking me out? Is this bastard really trying to kick me out?
"Fuck you Elliot! I'm not leaving you stubborn bastard. What happened that all of a sudden you want me to leave? You were so excited to have son just a couple weeks ago. So what you want break up?"
He was supposed to answer that last part with a no. He was supposed to stand up and say sorry for acting like an asshole. He was supposed to. But he didn't.
"Yes. Now GET OUT!"
I flinched at the sudden rage of emotions.
"No. I'm not leaving."
Elliot stood up this time his face stained with tears and cheeks red. He was mad but also upset. What happened?!
He grabbed me by my arm dragging me down the hall and stairs. He flung open the front door almost throwing me out. I lost my footing and feel to the ground. I landed on my ass wincing slightly from the pain. He threw a coat and shoes out the door before slamming it shut.
What...just happened? I stood up carefully using the wall as leverage. I knocked on the door.
"Elliot...?"
No answer. I knocked again.
"Elliot just please...tell me what's going on."
I started to choke up. I could feel the tears forming in my eyes. Is this really happening? Did I just get dumped and kicked out at the same time. He acted perfectly fine yesterday but then he came home today and acted just like that day when he found out I was pregnant.
I slipped on the shoes and put the coat on. It was Elliot's. His long black overcoat he wore almost everyday over his suit. It smelled of him. His pheromones were strong all over the coat. It made me feel safe but I wish it were him not just his coat. I began to walk, slowly, still hoping he would open the door asking me to come back. But he didn't.
I rode the elevator down to the lobby walking out the front doors into the brisk march air. It was beginning to turn into spring but there was still a nip in the air. I closed the jacket around me. It went all the way down to my ankles were as on Elliot it went only to his knees. The sleeves were long and I pulled my hands inside.
Where do I go? Back to my apartment? Tyler and Cates? My parents? Definitely not the last option. I wouldn't want to bother Tyler and Cate either so I decided on my apartment. I hadn't been back there in months. I kept paying rent so I know I still have it but it will be empty. No one there but me.
