Meredith has three kids and dating Nick Marsh. it was a normal day for Meredith when she got a call from a call from a hospital telling her to come as soon as possible.
she had lost her husband to a tragic car accident eight years ago whe...
The tests reads positive. Shit. Derek's only been home for a month. Could it even be his?
Derek and I have had a decent amount of sex but i don't know if its enough to get pregnant, especially with my infertility and im much older them I was when I had Bailey.
Do I tell Derek? I dont want to tell him, he gets happy and then it ends up being nicks.
I couldn't do that to him.
I wont tell him unless I know for sure who's it is. I throw the test in the trash and throw some pieces of toilet paper on top of it.
I leave the bathroom and go back downstairs.
***
not long later Derek and Ellis come home with dinner. Derek takes it to the kitchen and starts cooking.
I walk into the kitchen where I see Derek standing at the stove with his back facing me.
"do you think we should get a tutor for Bailey?" I ask him standing next to him.
"Why?" he asks.
"he's having a hard time in every single one of his classes, and not in a normal way. he can't do simple things like he should be able to do at his age," I say.
"So you're calling our son stupid?"
"No, he's not stupid, he's just uneducated, he rarely misses school but it's hard to get him to go in the mornings. I have to fight with him every day and by the time he gets there he's crying. Zola loves school and Bailey hates it, I asked Zola to try helping him but since their siblings he hated it and he felt like I was trying to tell him that Zola was the perfect child and he wasn't," I say.
"it does sound like that,"
"I know, I didn't see that until after he mentioned which was pretty stupid of me but I thought it would help if it was someone close to his age but it didn't help and me helping him doesn't seem to help him either," I say.
"maybe I could help him," he says.
"you should try but I'm not sure if it will work," I say.
"try this," he moves a spoon to my mouth. I open and try it.
"it's good," I say.
"are you feeling alright?" he asks me.
"Yes, why?" I say.
"You look a little pale, are you sick?" he asks placing the back of his hand to my forehead.
"Just a little nauseous that's all. I'm sure it's nothing," I say.
"are you sure?" he asks.
"yes, I-I'm sure," I say.
I step away from the stove and go into the other room.
I step outside of the house and walk to one of the bushes and throw up.
I wipe my mouth with that back of my hand. I collect myself before going back into the house.
"are you okay mom?" Bailey says as I walk through the front door.
"yes, honey, I'm fine," I say.
I go upstairs into the bathroom and wash my hands and brush my teeth.
I go back downstairs and sit in the living room with Ellis.
"Mommy?" she says.
"Yes, Ellie?"
"why are you crying?" she asks.
"Hmm? oh, Mommy just had something in our eyes," I tell her. my eyes were watering from when I threw up.
she nods and looks back at the tv.
when dinners ready we go into the kitchen and eat.
