World Of Sacrifice

Chapter 20

I am sooo sorry it takes me so long to update i get really bad writers block sometimes. Im trying guys i really am. Heres the update enjoy.

*Zea*

I woke up in a daze when I heard Darius crying. I looked at the clock three am like clockwork. I went to the kitchen and heated up his bottle and then went into the nursery to feed him. After I fed him and he had fallen asleep again I poked my head into Jaylens room. She was sleeping but with a book on her face. She must have been reading because her little nightstand lamp was still on. I grabbed the book setting it downon her table. I fixed her covers and kissed her forhead turning off her light and closing her door. Seeing as I was already awake I decided to go to the living room and watch TV so i didn't wake Andy. I settled for some reruns of full house and I even watched one episode of the old cartoon Rugrats. I had a bowl of half uneaten popcorn in front of me along with a can of Dr.Pepper. As I zoned out in front of the TV I thought about Lacey. Right now she was probably sleeping I would try to call her later. I was pretty sure she wasnt going to answer she had been dodging my calls and texts. But she was angry and I didn't blame her honestly. But I dropped Juliet I was crazy for trying to be her friend. I should've known shed hurt my relationship with everyone and I loved Lacey way more than Juliet. I couldn't lose her she was my rock and she was pissed at me and I hated that. All I wanted to do was talk to her and she wouldn't speak to me. There was nothing good on TV so I settled for  rerun of an old show and just zoned out with my can of pop. I had no idea how long I had been staring at the tv until I heard Andy's voice.

"Babe what are you doing out here?" he asked.

I turned looking at him. He was in his boxers and his hair was a mess, sleep coated his eyes. I looked back at the TV.

"Can't sleep so I'm just watching some TV. Sorry if it's too loud I'll turn it down" I reached for the remote and pressed the volume button.

"It's fine, why don't you come to bed baby. I want to hold you" he said.

My heart melted but I didn't want to lay awake for hours staring at the ceiling while he slept peacefully  beside me. I shook my head telling him I wasn't tired he sighed and rounded the couch and came next to me plopping down. I looked at him and he put his arms around me and laid down while I laid on top of him and he draped the blanket over us. I laid on his chest and snuggled into him and since I was so comfortable I drifted into sleep.

---------------------------------------------

I woke up to being shaken and when I opened my eyes I was looking in the face of my daughter. Her hair was messy and she was in her pajamas. I was still laying on Andy and he was sleeping.

"Hey baby what's up?" I asked lifting my head.

"I'm hungry" she told me.

"Okay I'm up I'll make you something to eat."

I sat up yawning and left Andy on the couch and made Jaylen some food and warmed up Darius's bottle before he woke up. I loved being a mom I loved my family. I just want to talk to my best friend. I poured a bowl of cereal and set it in front of Jaylen.

"Here you go baby" I told her.

She smiled and dipped her spoon in eagerly and ate. I looked at the clock it was almost ten. I sighed and went to the coffee table and grabbed my cell phone. I opened the lock screen and opened up my contacts and my finger hovered over Lacey's name. I debated whether to call her and try to apologize, she probably wouldn't answer. But what if she did? I sighed and pressed her name and held the phone up to my ear and walked back into the kitchen listening to ring. Then the line clicked and then came Lacey's voicemail. I hung my phone up and slammed it down on the counter.
