Chapter 19 - Worry
--Moxie Pov--
"Moxie.. Moxie?"
Jackson snaps his fingers infront of my eyes trying to get a response from me. I can't shake my head of the shock. Isaac left me? I didn't think it would really happen. I know I'd been leaving him but it was different the other way around. It was.. hurtful.
"Moxie.."
I look up at Jackson. What's he still doing here? He leans in, looking me dead in the eyes.
"It's going to be okay Moxie, I know it must seem hard for you but don't worry. I'll look after you and Alainn"
I blink a couple of times before raising an eyebrow at him. Did Jackson Whittmore just say he was going to look after me and Alainn? That's what I thought I heard..
"What?" I whisper trying to understand what he meant.
"Me and you.. we could raise Alainn.. together"
I shake my head again. I'm dreaming. I've got to be dreaming. This is all a painful nightmare.
"But.. but.. Isaac will come back... He will won't he?"
Jackson sighs before connecting his gaze with mine.
"If he comes back I'll tear him a new one.. he can't just do this. He can't just walk away"
"But what about Lydia..."
"I don't care about Lydia.. its you Moxie I want you"
I rest my back against the wall behind me.
"I.. I don't know.."
"Think about Alainn's future Moxie. I could give her so much"
"Money isn't everything"
"I wasn't just talking about money"
"Your parents will kill you"
"My parents are easily won over"
Sighing I know its the best choice. What other choice do I have?
"Okay Jackson.. for Alainn"
He flashes me his rare million dollar smile making wonder what I've gotten myself into.
***
I was still sore after having Alainn so I remained in hospital for a week. After a week I was ready to leave and go meet the Whittmores. I was lying if I said I wasn't lying. Derek had taken his granddaughter for the day. I only hope it isn't hunting.
Jackson picked me up from the hospital in his car. The day before Stiles dropped in my bag.
"Are you sure about this Moxie?" He asked.
Stiles worry hadn't reached me at the time but now it had invaded my body like the common cold.
I had never been inside the Whittmore house. I'd been at their door a good while back, back before Isaac and finding out my heritage.
As Jackson pulled into the drive way I couldn't help but want to stay in the car and never get out.
"You shouldn't worry you know"
How could he be so calm and relaxed about this? He was letting me and my daughter stay with his family and we weren't even going out.
"They know I'm coming right?"
"Yes"
"They know I'm a mother right?"
"Yes. Now come on and stop wasting time" he said as he got out of the car.
Oh there's the Jackson we all know and hate. Well I suppose I shouldn't hate with him helping me out. Getting out of the car I follow Jackson up the drive to his house until a sudden young voice calls my name.
"Moxie!!"
Turning around slowly I look at the young blonde girl running towards me. Grabbing my waist hard Christy nearly crushes all my bones as she hugs me.
"Hey Chrisy..."
How could I forget that Carol live across from Jackson? How could I be so stupid?
"Where have you been?"
"On holiday" I lie quickly.
"When are you coming home?"
"I.. I came come home Christy.."
"Why?"
I bite my lip and look at Jackson with wide eyes. He shrugs.
"Listen Chris... I don't live with you anymore.. I'll visit you though"
Christy let's me go and looks up at me.
"You better" she says before she runs off.
Jackson raises an eyebrow at me, wanting me to explain.
"Later.. let's go get this over with" I say as I quickly walk by him to the front door.
Here goes nothing.
