Andrew took me home. He just walked out of the hospital like it was nothing. Nobody stopped us or tried to. He stopped at a pharmacy where he went to get a whole lot of bandages. When we came home he started to wrap my arm up.
"My dear, sweet Emily, you have to be careful. Falling of the stairs isn't smart babe. Not for you or our little baby" He smiled finishing up my arm. I didn't say a word the whole way here and still really hardly knew anything to say. I was scared not for me anymore but for my baby.
"Andrew... we don't have to do this anymore" I whispered.
He tilted his head and looked at me.
"What my dear?" He smiled and seemed really sincere.
"This... Us. I can find a place for myself. I can go, you don't have to be the father of this child. I can do it on my own"
He started laughing, this weird maniac like laugh. "Don't me silly sweetheart. I want this baby just as much as you do!"He smiled and kissed me when the doorbell rang. "Just sit here baby, I will be right back" There was a warning in his eyes. "You will stay here and be quiet... If you make any sound you will be sorry! I will take that baby from you Emily! If you dare to leave me I will!" He chuckled seeing my jaw drop. "With your background... your mother. Trust me nobody would let you keep a child"
I heard some muffled voices and a minute later Andrew care back with a set of cops behind him. His face was like a thunderstorm he was furious. I knew Taylor must have send them to me.
"Hello Emily, we heard you were in some trouble and wanted to see if you were alright" One of them was a woman. Older then me and I vaguely remembered her from school. When I started she was a senior.
"I nodded looking at Andrew who seemed to slowly shake his head nearly invisible.
"I... well, I am..."
"She is just a little shaken up from her fall that is all" Andrew interrupted my stuttering. "I have no idea what that girl told you but she is perfectly fine! Are you not Em? " He did sound a little annoyed.
"Is that so Emily? Are you okay? You left the hospital before they could take your x-rays. Were you okay with that?"
"I... I am okay" I whispered making Andrew smile and my insides squirm. I knew he would make it all look like it was my fault nobody would believe me.
"She has been a little off lately. Being pregnant and all. I think you took a little to many pain medication didn't you" Andrew looked at me with this angel like smile. I turned cold.
My mother had been addicted to pain medication among others... It had started with that.
"Pain medication?" The female cop turned her head a little looking at me and back to my husband. Andrew nodded "Yes, she had a concussion a while back. Headaches and all. They can make her a little drowsy. That is why I guess she fell down the stairs" He looked over at me. "Didn't you babe?" I couldn't believe the smile he gave me. He had me right where he wanted me. Lying to the cops and admitting I took to many pills.
I shrugged and turned my eyes to the ground.
"See, nothing to worry about, I will take good care of her" I heard Andrew say.
"Okay... take care Emily"
I didn't respond to the ladies words. The male cop didn't even speak. They just left and Andrew let the out. "So now let's make a phone call" He chuckled sounding so happy with himself.
"This is Andrew. Hello Mrs Price how are you... I am okay thanks. Yes I wanted to talk to you about something. Yes I heard your daughter talk to Emily about something that scared me a little."
I looked up to Andrew. What the hell was he doing. He grinned at me continuing his story. "Yes, well I hope you can keep this to yourself for just a few weeks but Emily is expecting our first baby. Something that makes me really happy of course... Yes thank you Mrs Price. Yes, it's just that Taylor... I like her a lot really she has been a lovely friend to Emily but she doesn't seem all to happy with the baby and well... She told Emily to abort the baby."
I gasped for air and jumped to my feet. He couldn't do this! I knew Taylor's parent's would go crazy! The were religious and would kill her if they believed this.
His face got dark looking at me and made his hand into a fist threatening to hit me if I didn't shut up.
"I know, it's horrible and I know they are good friends but I would rather not have Emily work with her if she talks about things like this. Emily has been a little off lately and she is scared of having a baby but I can't have anybody put these horrible ideas in her head... I think maybe it would be better if she quit the job... yes... No I am really sorry.... Thank you for understanding. Yes... No thank you Mrs Price."
He hung up and was with me in a second grabbing my hair pulling my head back to look at him. "Now listen very carefully my dear wife" He hissed through gritted teeth.
"You will do as I say... You are my wife! You wanna have this mutt, fine! But I will be making the rules not you!"
