This Love Is Ours (Sequel to Chadwick's Sister)

Chapter Eight

Caitlyn's POV
After lunch with Breezie, I came home and kinda just hung out at the house by myself while Wes worked on the nursery. Ever since our argument this morning we haven't said one word to each other. So I sit on the living room couch watching Pocahontas by myself.

"Hey I'm gonna head to Keaton and Tyler's." Wes said, walking from our room to the living room.

"Okay, when was this decided?" I ask, I'm not that girlfriend that tells him 'no you can't go because you didn't ask me' but I just like to know where he's gonna be in case of an emergency.

"Since you went to lunch with my sister earlier today. I thought since you got your girl time I deserved some guy time." He answers. Before I can even say one word he leaves.

Wes's POV
Okay I do kinda feel bad for leaving Cait at home by herself, but I mean I need some time to myself. And I think she might need some time to herself for a bit. So to Keaton and Tyler's apartment I head off to.

I finally got to there apartment and knock on the door. Moments later my little brother opens the door, letting me inside.

"Hey bro." He tells me, giving me a hug.

"Hey."

"Where's Cait?" He asks, as we start walking into the living room.

"At home. Her and I got into an argument this morning and now we're both not talking to each other."

"What'd you do this time?" He asks and I scoff.

"How come you automatically assume I did something?"

"Wes, it's you." He says and I nod.

"I'm just freaking out because in five months I'll be a dad. And I've just been wanting to get this room done for the baby and didn't want to be bothered. Even though Cait is the one carrying this baby I felt like I had a connection with her already as I was doing the room. And getting to see the bed she'll be sleeping in, the high chair she'll be eating in, swing that she'll play in, and the clothes that she'll wear just gets me more and more excited. But with that it gets me nervous. What if I'm not a good dad?" I vent.

"Wes you'll be a great dad. Don't freak yourself out man."

"I-I don't think I'm ready for this."

Caitlyn's POV
So this whole time, I've been at home by myself and watching Disney movies. About half way through Frozen, I decide that I'm pretty hungry. So I pause my movie before getting up off the couch and walking into the kitchen. I rub my belly as I look in the fridge, trying to decide what I want.

"Okay little one, do we want pickles in sour cream or left over pizza?" I ask.

Normally she would kick me, almost telling me what she wants. But this time.......there was nothing. Now that I think about it, she hasn't kicked or moved all day.

Trying not to freak out I quickly make my way into the living room. I sit on the edge of the couch and try pushing in my belly. I feel her in the lower left side of my belly. Semi relieved I lightly push her seeing if she would move, nothing.

"Please baby girl. Move for mommy." I say, I push again and there's still nothing. Freaking out and my heart probably racing at a hundred miles per hour I reach for my phone.

Wes's POV
Keaton and I were playing COD when his cellphone rings. We pause the game and he answers it.

"Hello. Okay calm down everything's going to be fine. She's okay, maybe she's just asleep." He tells the person on the other line.

"Keaton who's that?" I ask. He holds up his finger, as if telling me to wait.

"Look I'll tell him. Just don't freak out. And don't go to the hospital without him." He says before hanging up.

"Keaton, who was that?" I ask starting to get a bit nervous.

"Cait, um. Cait called and she said that she hasn't felt the baby kick or move at all today." He says and my heart drops.

"Well I'm gonna head home." I say getting up.

"Okay bro, text me when you guys find out." He says and I nod. I give him a hug and leaving.

Caitlyn's POV
After I get off the phone with Keaton, I'm freaking out. This baby has been the world to Wes and I, and I don't know what we're going to do if we lose her.

I get off the couch and go into Wes and I's bedroom, grabbing the bear Wes bought me for Christmas one year. I sit on the couch again, holding the bear on my belly. After a few minutes I hear the door open downstairs and someone who I assume is Wes, runs up the stairs.

"Cait, there you are. Are you okay?" He asks coming over to me.

"I-I don't know. She hasn't moved or kicked all day." I say as he kneels in front of me.

"Baby girl, please let mommy know your okay." Wes says, putting his hand on my belly. I then feel a kick causing both Wes and I to smile.

"She just missed her daddy." I say, before tears start running down my face.

"I'm so so sorry about this whole argument baby." He says, hugging me.

"I'm sorry to."

"You have nothing to be sorry for. This was all me. I'm just really nervous to be a dad. But I want everything to be perfect for our little girl. I love you guys so much." He says and she starts kicking again, causing both of us to smile.

"We love you too." I say, before giving him a peck on the lips.
