Fantasy Becomes Reality

Chapter 73

I woke up next to Andrew and he was on his back just looking at the ceiling and I turned around to face him. When he saw I was up he just looked at me and didn't say anything. He put his arm around me and I could tell he had been crying again.

"I just don't understand why." He said, his voice cracking and he started crying again and I wrapped my arms around him and my own tears started to dampen his shirt. He turned over on his side and wrapped both of his arms around me and rested his head on top of mine.

"Please just don't let go of me." I said.

"I'm not baby." He said kissing the top of my head and he looked at me. His eyes were even more red and puffy but he was trying to stop himself from crying. He tilted my chin up and kissed me and when he pulled away he just laid next to me and stayed quiet. If we started talking we would both have a complete breakdown again.

***

We ended up falling asleep again and I woke up and Andy was no longer next to me he was shirtless in the bedroom though.

"Hey." He said smiling weakly as he put a shirt on. I didn't say anything and I just got up and changed my clothes.

"No." He said.

"What?" I asked putting my shirt on and grabbed my pants.

"Take your shirt off." He said.

"Andrew I'm not in the mood, seriously?" I asked.

"I never said we were going to fuck. Take your clothes off and go in the bathroom." He said and I started undressing, again. When I was completely nude he grabbed my hips and led me into the bathroom, the tub was filled with bubbles and there were candles around it.

"Take a bath and relax okay?" He said and kissed my cheek.

"What about you?" I asked.

"I already got a shower." He said.

"So take a bath with me." I said kissing him and he shrugged.

"I just want to be with you, I don't want to be alone or I'll go insane." I said.

"You and me both." He said taking his shirt off and putting it on the sink as well his jeans and he got in before me. He pulled me down on him gently and wrapped his arms around my stomach. I tilted my head back and kissed him and he rubbed my hand. We pulled away and I looked up at him still.

"Andy do you still love me?" I asked.

"What?" He asked narrowing his eyes at me.

"After all of this, will you still love me?" I asked.

"Jasmine this isnt you're fault. Of course I'll still love you, I'll love you for the rest of my life." He said.

"We're going to get through this okay?" He asked and I nodded and put my head on his shoulder and my hand on his chest.

"When you're eyes shut yesterday and you weren't responding to anyone I got so scared you have no idea." He said and he chuckled a bit and I looked at him.

"And I kept yelling at the nurses and they just said you passed out from the pain and I just kept yelling at them because I didn't know what to do and I was so scared-that-that something was going to happen to you or to the baby." He said closing his eyes and I rubbed his chest.

"I had to leave when I found out, I didn't want to be there when you woke up, you were so confused and-" he paused biting his lip.

"You had no clue what was happening and I didn't want to be the one to tell you but I had to." He said and I was crying and he wiped my tears away.

"I didn't want to make you cry but I had to let it out because I have so much inside me." He said and I nodded.

"It's okay." I said wiping underneath my eyes and getting myself together again.

"You're dad didn't even say a word to me." He said and I looked at him.

"What?" I asked.

"He didn't say anything to me he just walked past me." He said.

"I don't know what I did wrong." He said.

"I'll talk to him, you didn't do anything wrong Andy." I said.

"Yeah." He said.

"Andy this isn't your fault, it's not any of our faults." I said and he nodded.

"I just think me and my dad don't have the best relationship right now, I don't think I've said one full sentence to him since he told me him and Jen were going to get married, other than last night when I woke up at the hospital and asked him where you were." I chuckled a bit and so did he.

"I'm sorry I wasn't there I just broke down Jas." He said and I nodded.

"Let's get out its getting cold." He chuckled and I got out as he followed and I threw him his towel.

"Thank you for the bath." I said and he nodded.

We both dried off and we got dressed again and we heard the doorbell ring and we both went downstairs. He opened the door and Andys mom hugged Andy and his dad hugged me.

"I'm sorry." They said and Andy nodded and so did I as he picked Skylar up.

"Hi baby girl." Andy said kissing her and she smiled at him and he smiled back. I kissed her cheek and went over on the couch as Andy and his parents followed. I knew Andy and I didn't want to talk about it and I was really hoping they wouldn't bring it up.

"You guys are lucky, Skylars really quiet." His mom said breaking the silence and I nodded smiling weakly.

"I love you so much." Andy said to Skylar and I smiled at him. It was all so awkward and I don't think anyone knew what to say.

"We're going to get going, we'll probably stop by soon just to check up on you guys." She said and I nodded and hugged her again.

"Thank you so much Sue." I said and Andy handed Skylar to me.

"I'm going to walk them out can you hold her?" He asked and I nodded as he went outside the house and I already knew he was going to talk to them out there about things.

Fifteen minutes passed and Andy came back in and I could tell he had been crying but he was trying his best to hide it, which he really couldn't. When he cried his eyes got really red and he just looked over at me on the couch with Sky and went over to me and kissed me.

"I love you." He said.

"I love you too." I said.

"Daddy." Skylar said and she pointed to her eyes.

"What baby?" He asked and she pointed to him.

"I think she's confused on why your eyes are red and puffy." I said.

"Is it that obvious?" He asked and I nodded and he sighed.

"We're going to get through this."
