Love is Blind: Safety Net

Stop the Cap.

Days Later, 1:46 a.m, Jay's POV:

My eyes slowly cracked open as I felt warm lips press against the side of my cheek.

"Hey baby..." Chris said softly as I sighed.

"Hey" I whispered as I closed my eyes back.

I heard him take his stuff off and move across the room.

This is the third night in a row where he's broken my sleep. I've been working and seeing patients back to back since I won't be around for a month and a half. My higher ups gave me permission for leave, but I've just been trying to check on everybody before my last day.

Chris and his team have started dance rehearsals for the tour. It's kept him busy and out late. I have early mornings and he's able to start later than me.

We've been around each other kinda, but it's been a little light these past few days since he's been away working. I try to check in with him when I finish clients, but he's been so busy even during my breaks. I always get home before him.

I've just kept quiet because I don't wanna start anything. He responds and calls when he can. It's better than it started out... it's just still a tad bit frustrating.

"Baby, I missed you so much." He said softly as I felt him lean down to kiss my cheek again.

As I laid on my side I kept my eyes closed. The goal is to fall back asleep.

"I missed you too." I mumbled lazily as I felt his thumb graze the side of my face.

"Imma go shower..." He said as I shook my head ok.

I heard him walk in the bathroom and turn the shower on.

I've been really tired and a little moody. I hate it. Sometimes I just wanna sit up and cuddle with Chris all day. But, real life has been thrown at us and it's not making it easy.

"Baby you ok? You need anything?" I heard Chris ask from the bathroom as I said no.

"I'm sorry I woke you up... I love you." He said peaking his head out the bathroom as I slowly opened my eyes.

"I love you more Chris." I said with a raspy tone.

"Not more than me..." He said with a smile as I gave a half one.

The wedding is in a few days and it's been having me anxious.

Hopefully Chris and I can get another completely free day with each other before the big day.

The Next Morning:

As my eyes cracked open, a sharp pain shot through my lower abdomen.

I winced as I heard Chris snoring lightly behind me.

As I shifted in the bed, I felt moisture and my demeanor immediately became tense.

I know you lying.

I quietly got up to go to the bathroom and I closed the door.

Once I pulled my panties down, I threw a silent tantrum and punched the air.

Why me?

The cramps started kicking in and my life started falling apart right after.

30 Minutes Later, Chris' POV:

I stretched and my eyes opened slightly.

I looked over to my right and I noticed that my fiancé was curled up in a ball under our blanket.

She was holding herself unusually, but she was sleeping.

"Babe?" I asked and she didn't answer.

"Baby girl..." I said once more as I touched her shoulder.
