She Saved Me Version 2

Part 58

Helena P.O.V. 

I'm upstairs in my bedroom pacing a hole in the floor. I went to the doctors earlier today and got the cast off my foot so I can walk finally. As I pace around my room I find my anxiety rising more and more by the second about dinner tonight. I look at the clock and notice it is four o clock. My stomach is starting to churn, and I find myself getting sick from my anxiety. I walk out of the loo and walk past my mirror. My abdomen is protruding thankfully, my shirt is big enough to hide it at least for now. I walk over to my bureau and look again at the pictures of my baby. "Soon the secret will be out." I think to myself. I take a deep breath and put the pictures away and walk downstairs and into the living room where I find Laura in the living room reading. Thankfully I convinced her and Tom to let the older kids stay at my mum's tonight, so they don't have to be in the house tonight in case things don't go well. Laura looks up at me as I walk into the room. "Are you alright mum, you look nervous." she says, looking at me. I look at her and calmly reply "I'm fine sweetheart." I then notice Tom come home with the food for dinner. We decided to order out instead of cooking since it will be less mess. As Tom sets the food down, I find the smell of it to be too strong and I find myself getting sick again. I walk out of the loo and sit on the couch next to Laura. "Do we need to cancel?" Laura asks. "No, I'm fine." I tell her. No sooner were the words out of my mouth I hear the doorbell. I rise from my seat while saying "I'll get it." I walk to the front door and look around the door as I open it slowly and see Tim standing on the front steps holding TJ. I open the door and he quietly says, "I had no one to watch him so I had to bring him with me." I nod my head in understanding, and I let him into the flat. As we walk in, I hear Charlie start to cry. I motion for Tim to stop at the entrance to the living room as I watch Laura retreat upstairs to check on the baby. She comes down a few minutes later holding the baby. I walk into the living room and Laura asks, "Who was at the door?" I take a shaky breath and motion to Tim, and he walks slowly into the room with the baby. Laura stops dead in her tracks and looks from me to Tim and back at me. "Is this what you wanted to tell us that you are back together with him?!" she says, getting upset. I take a shaky breath as I watch Laura put Charlie into the Pac n play. I watch as Tim puts TJ down on the floor as he starts to cry. I bend down and pick him up out of the car seat after unstrapping him. I hold him and cuddle him while looking at Laura. "Yes and no." I say, feeling my anxiety rising by the second. "What the hell could you possibly have to tell us?" Laura says, as Tom looks on waiting for my answer to his wife's question. I look at Tim for help when I notice the bag in his hand. I watch as he steps forward and offers it to Laura. She takes it from him, and I watch with anticipation as she goes through the tissue paper and finds the outfit that Tim ordered. I watch Laura as she looks at the item for a long moment and then looks at me. "ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? YOU'RE PREGNANT!!!!!! HOW THE FUCK COULD YOU LET THAT HAPPEN AFTER WHAT HE DID TO ME TWICE!!!!!! WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?!!!!!! she screams. Her screaming has scared the kids, and they have both started to cry. I hold TJ tight while trying to calm him down and I watch as Tom picks Charlie up out of the Pac n play and tries to calm her down. I watch Laura as tears have started to roll down her cheeks and I can feel the same thing happening to me. I look at Laura for a long moment not knowing what to say to her. "I'm sorry." is the only thing I manage to think of to say to her. "YOU'RE SORRY?!!!! IF I WAS YOU, I WOULD BE SORRY!!!! Laura says, her anger still rising. I can feel the hot tears rolling down my cheeks faster and faster as I feel Tim wrap his arms around me. I turn toward him and cry into his chest just letting the tears fall knowing I deserve every word that Laura is saying to me. I watch as Tim walks into the kitchen and grabs a napkin and offers it to me. I wipe my eyes and look at Laura and I see the look of hurt has not left her face. "I'm sorry." I say again still not knowing what to say. "You should be." Laura says to me harshly. I look down at the floor ashamed of myself. "You know that your reaction isn't helping the situation." Tim says, coming to my defense. "You think I care what you say." Laura says. "Can you two stop?" I say, glaring at both of them. They both stop and look at me. "The bottom line is that what's done is done and there is nothing I can do to change it." I say to the young couple. "What are you planning to do then?" Laura asks. "Not that it's any of your business but I plan on keeping the baby." I say to her. She looks at me for a moment then looks at Tim. "How do you two plan to manage with two infants?" she asks. "Don't worry about it, it's none of your business." Tim says. I watch Laura glare at Tim and then take Charlie from Tom. She then walks up the stairs to the bedroom with Tom right behind her. I let out a shaky breath and look at Tim. "That could have gone a lot better." I say. "Don't worry about it Helena. Laura will come around." Tim says, trying to lift my spirits but it does very little. "I hope your right Tim, I hope you're right." I tell him. 

Laura P.O.V. 

I'm sitting on the couch reading trying to pass the time waiting for dinner tonight although I am having trouble focusing on the book in front of me. The reason for this is because I am wondering what is so important that mum has to tell us. As I sit there debating situations in my head, I notice mum walk into the room. "Are you alright mum, you look nervous." I say, looking at her. Mum looks at me and calmly replies "I'm fine sweetheart." I then notice Tom come home with the food for dinner. We decided to order out instead of cooking since it will be less mess. As Tom sets the food down, I mum getting sick.  She walks out of the loo and sits on the couch next to me. "Do we need to cancel?" I ask. "No, I'm fine." she tells me. No sooner were the words out of her mouth I hear the doorbell. Mum rises from her seat while saying "I'll get it." She walks to the front door, and I hear her talking to someone. I also notice she doesn't come back right away. As I am contemplating this, I hear Charlie start to cry.  I retreat upstairs to check on the baby. I walk into the bedroom and get Charlie out of the crib and change her nappy. I then walk back downstairs a few minutes later holding Charlie.  I then ask mum who has walked back into the living room but I notice she is alone, "Who was at the door?" I watch her take a shaky breath and motion to the hallway and Tim, walks slowly into the room with the baby. I stop dead in my tracks and look from mum to Tim and back at mum. "Is this what you wanted to tell us that you are back together with him?!" I say, getting upset. I watch mum take a shaky breath as I put Charlie into the Pac n play. I watch as Tim puts TJ down on the floor as he starts to cry. I watch mum bend down and pick him up out of the car seat after unstrapping him. I watch her hold him and cuddle him while looking at me. "Yes and no." she says, "What the hell could you possibly have to tell us?" I say, as Tom looks on waiting for the answer to my question. I watch mum look at Tim for help when I notice something in his hand. I watch as he steps forward and offers me a bag. I take it from him, and I go through the tissue paper and find an outfit, not just any outfit but a onesie. Now everything is falling into place. I look at the item for a long moment and then look at mum my anger getting the better of me. "ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? YOU'RE PREGNANT!!!!!! HOW THE FUCK COULD YOU LET THAT HAPPEN AFTER WHAT HE DID TO ME TWICE!!!!!! WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?!!!!!! I scream. My screaming has scared the kids, and they have both started to cry. I watch mum hold TJ tight while trying to calm him down and I watch as Tom picks Charlie up out of the Pac n play and tries to calm her down. I can feel tears forming in my eyes and I can't stop them as they have started to roll down my cheeks and I can see the same thing happening to mum. I notice mum look at me for a long moment not knowing what to say. "I'm sorry." is the only thing she manages to say to me. "YOU'RE SORRY?!!!! IF I WAS YOU, I WOULD BE SORRY!!!! I say, my anger still rising. I notice tears rolling down mum's cheeks faster and faster as I watch as Tim wraps his arms around mum. I watch her turn toward him and cry into his chest.  I watch as Tim walks into the kitchen and grabs a napkin and offers it to mum. I watch mum wipe her eyes and look at me as the look of hurt has not left my face. "I'm sorry." mum says again still not knowing what to say. "You should be." I say to her harshly. Mum looks down at the floor.  "You know that your reaction isn't helping the situation." Tim says, coming to mum's defense. "You think I care what you say." I say. "Can you two stop?" mum says, glaring at both of us. We both stop and look at her. "The bottom line is that what's done is done and there is nothing I can do to change it." mum says to Tom and me. "What are you planning to do then?" I ask curious. "Not that it's any of your business but I plan on keeping the baby." mum says to me. I look at mum for a moment then look at Tim. "How do you two plan to manage with two infants?" I ask. "Don't worry about it, it's none of your business." Tim says. I glare at Tim and then take Charlie from Tom. I then walk up the stairs to the bedroom with Tom right behind me. I go into the bedroom with Tom right behind me. I close the door and set Charlie in the crib and look at Tom. "How could she be so stupid?" I ask him. "What's done is done, I think at this point all she wants is your support." he says, looking at me. I sigh in frustration unsure of how to feel.
