Mr. Blake's body

Chapter 16

 

     I wake up to the sound of a screeching, pissed off woman yelling and I quickly recognized the voice.
The bitch has a lot of nerve to show up here after I broke her nose earlier today.  Maryann George is in Jessup's house yelling at him so loud it's hurting my ears and I am in his bedroom with the door closed.
    God is it dark outside! Surely I didn't sleep the whole day. I turn over to Jessup's side of the bed and see that the clock says it's after eleven.
Holy hell, I did sleep the whole day. Good God in heaven please make that awful screeching sound stop. It's really starting to get on my nerves.
     I get out of bed and walk over to the door about to open it when I hear Jessup's voice.
    He is trying to whisper something, so me being the sneaky eavesdropping badass that I am, I place my ear to the door and try to make out what he is saying.
    HOLY FUCK ME!!! Did I really just hear that right. He better pray to God that my ears just lied to me and what I heard him say was wrong because so help me I will fucking kill him with my bare hands.
I come flying out of his room like a raging tornado. Jessup freezes mid sentence when he sees the pure pissed off murderous look on my face, and that's when the Queen of the traffic cones turns around. She looks like she has just seen the Devil, which I'm pretty sure that's exactly what I look like right now.
    I walk past Maryann without even acknowledging her and zero in on the wall of asshole that is Jessup Blake.

      Did I really just hear you say that? Are you fucking serious Jessup?
Were you really going to pay this botched up bitch money to keep me from finding out that you got her pregnant??

     He just stands there like he doesn't even know what to say. He looks like he just got caught with his hand in the cookie jar.

    Jessup so help me if you don't start fucking talking I swear I will rip you apart and send you and this hussy to hell where you belong.

    In her squeaky annoying voice Maryann speaks up.

      You thought that he would actually be honest with you? And tell you that he got me pregnant. Well you see the thing is our child is due in about seven and a half months.

     I spin around so fast and have my hand around her throat before I even knew what I was doing.

   Bitch I will get to you in a minute. No one asked for you to speak. So unless you want a repeat of what happened earlier you had better shut up until it's your turn to talk. Got it!

Jessup grabs me by the arm and pulls me away from her. As soon as my hand leaves her throat she starts gasping and coughing for air. She is such a pussy. I didn't even have that tight of a grip on her. I turn my attention back to Jessup and tap my foot, waiting on him to answer me.
    It took what felt like a freaking century before he opened his mouth to speak.

     I was going to tell you about the baby when the time was right. I just didn't want you to hear it from anyone else until I was ready to tell you myself. Please calm down, you are starting to scare me.

     Oh you ain't seen nothing yet. Hasn't anyone ever told you to never piss off a southern woman??
     You have had every opportunity to tell me you were having a child with Americas most ugly but you didn't. And I know for a fact that you probably would have never told me because that's the type of fucked up, piece of shit you are. I hope that the three of you are very happy because I am done. You don't have to worry about letting me go because I am already gone and this time it's for good.

     I turn grab my purse and shoes and make my way to the elevator with Jessup hot on my heels. Once I get on the elevator he puts his hands on the doors to keep them from closing and that just pisses me off even more but then I realize that the package I had picked up is in my bag. I reach in, pull it out and throw it straight at his face. Thanking the heavens that for once my aim was spot on because it hit him right between the eyes with a loud thud and I know it hurt like hell. What ever was in that damn thing was heavy but at least the impact of it hitting him in the face made him let go of the doors so that they would close and so I can leave this horrible place. 
As the doors come to a close I hear Jessup as he pleads for me not to leave. The raw emotion in his broken voice causes me to flinch because I know this is a side of him that no one has ever seen but this is what he deserves for all the lies and secrecy, and at the same time my heart is slowly shattering into a million tiny pieces because I know that me and Jessup are truly done this time.
    Why did I let myself fall in love with him. I was only fooling myself into believing that the amazing fairy tale I had made up in my mind would last with him, that he could actually love me and my son. That he would be the father that Bennett had been robbed of before he was even born. That he cared about us or wanted to be a family.
    I guess it's what I get for falling in love with someone I have only knew barley a month. Which almost half of that time we spent fighting. I can't say that this is the worst day of my life because the day I lost Jack was the worst day of ten lifetimes but this runs a very close second. I have now lost the second man I have ever truly loved with my whole heart. I feel broken and defeated which is crazy since I wasn't the one who did anything wrong.
Ok so maybe using my head as a lethal weapon and choking a pregnant woman was wrong but I still am not the one who lied and kept secrets about things you would normally share with the person you are in a relationship with.
