For You

Chapter 8

Rowan Pov

I have been at work for 3 hours now and I am exhausted. Lately I have been getting tired quickly; And it's very much taking a toll on my work.

Redoing the messy bun that I currently have popped on the top of my head. I turned when the doorbell rang, turning around and making sure my smile was there. The fake smile I had immediately dropped. Standing there was Mrs. Watson.

She was our neighbor back in my old town. She was very religious and had a very big influence in my old town. That's probably why she and my mom are friends.

No one knew where I had gone and I wanted it that way. But with her being here as soon as she went back home word would go around town of where I went to. It didn't help that I was this far along. Plus the fact that I wasn't trying to hide it she could tell that I was pregnant.

I loved how cute it was but now I regret it. Her eyes widened once in shock and she looked at me up and down in disbelief.

"Oh Rowan, I haven't seen you in so long your mother told me you went away to study." She said in a fake fake glad voice.

"Hi Mrs. Watson, what can I do for you today?" I try to stay away from the conversation I didn't want to have at the moment or ever!

"Do you mom know about........ you know." She say pointing to my belly. I slowly let out a small sign. Of course I could tell her the truth.  But my mom would be furious.

Besides, they obviously told everyone that I went away to study. And not that they kicked me out after they found out I was pregnant.

"We have a lot of good things here." I tell her acting  like I didn't hear what she just said. She looked at me with a bit of shock and anger as I practically ignored her.

"You know what young lady I am about to call your mom I bet she would clear all of this up." she said, pulling out her phone and squinting her eyes to see the screen better.

My heart dropped and I panicked feeling an attack coming along. My family can't know where I am. They would probably tell Jace. I don't even want to think of what Jace would do if he found out I was pregnant.

I thought I was doing so well this past month. I haven't had a panic attack like this in a while. It took one person to take me back to how I was when I first got kicked out. 

Turning around and going to the back so that no one would see me have a panic attack. I sat on the ground trying to calm myself down.

Knowing soon I would pass out I scrambled to my phone panicking and tapping the call button. Please pick up brooks, please pick up.

Groaning infustration I place my head against the wall trying all the methods that helped me at first. With that not helping I picked up my phone and called the next best option.

I am in a meeting with a very important client that will be able to spread the bar to many other places. This deal is worth millions so imagine my frustration when I hear another phone  ringing.

I had over told everyone I wanted this to go perfectly. Looking over at brooks I give her one of my glares.

Her phone was just going off, she shrugged her shoulders shaking her head no. trying to tell me that it is not coming from her.

Realizing it was coming from me, I angrily picked up the phone. I am going to kill whoever is calling, I think but as soon as I heard Rowan's panicked voice, all anger blemished and was replaced with worry.

"What's wrong" I ask immediately.

"Ca-nn you give the phoo– ne to brooks." she spoke into the phone stuttering over her words.

"Rowan, tell me what's going on." I pushed. Already getting my stuff to go to Rowan everyone is looking at me. I was no longer focus on this deal only on rowan who was currently crying over my phone.

I made contact with the eyes of brooks and the guys and they immediately knew what I meant. I trust them enough to finish this deal for me.

"Rowan, I am going to stay on the phone just try to calm down, I'm on my way." I told her while her heavy breathing could be heard over the phone.

Getting in my car I try to help her with breathing over the phone like I use to do when I was younger. Not caring about anything I drove fast and even ran a few lights making it to the cafe in no time. Rushing into the cafe I looked around the cafe not seeing Rowan. I went into the back to check if she was there.

Not bothering about the looks I was getting.

I found her sitting on the floor. Sitting down next to her I pull her to my chest. Placing the damp hair behind her ear. I hear her heavily breathing eventually even out as I tug her close to me. 

Feeling her baby bump pressed against my side I wanted to just pull her onto my lap. But resisted to do so to not make her uncomfortable.

She lifts her head to meet my eyes and I see her blood shot eyes that just make me want to kill whoever did this to her. "Who" was all I said. I could see her thinking about her response as she hesitated to tell me.

"No one"

"Rowan, don't tell me it's no one hen it's obviously some one." I say.

At my words she just looked down at her hands. Not wanting to tell me what's going on.

I sigh getting off the ground as much as I want her to tell me;

All the books and articles that I have read about pregnancy so far said that stress is not good for a baby.

She looked surprised when I didn't say anything further and grabbed her hand to help her off the floor.

"Where are we going?" she asked as I led her out of the cafe. "You'll see" was all I said before opening the car door for her.
