Chapter 18: Us?


(Brielle
POV)







The whole car ride back home was silent. I just wanted to take a long bath and a long rest.

As soon as we got in everyone ran to hug me. I was happy to see them, to be honest. "We missed you!" Bella said. I laughed and hugged her. "I missed you too". "I am so glad to see that you're safe" Dad said. I slightly smile.

"Did you fight bad guys??" Sajaay asked. He looked so excited. "Something like that". He giggled and ran away with Bella.

After everybody hugged me and went back to what they were doing, I went to my old room and just laid on the bed. There was a knock. "Come in" I say as Sienna walks in.

"Hey Brielle, I've missed you". I completely forgot about the situation. "I missed you too". She crawled onto my bed. She laid next to me.

"I told Jaylen". My eyes immediately cut to her. "What happened? How did he react?".

"He is really angry. He hasn't talked to me since. The most I can do right now is except his anger and give him space. I'd react the same if I was in his position".

"Well at least you told him. I love you Sienna. You made mistakes, I understand. I'll always be there for you, no matter what". We sat up and hugged each other.

"Thanks".

"But you better not do something like that again". "I promise I won't". "Alright now, well I'm about to rest. I'm going to go back to Florida soon. I want to be back in my own bed".

She said Okay and walked out closing the door. We have been here for three weeks, I can not WAIT to go home.

I was just about to fall asleep and Jacob came in. "Get outt" I whine. "Dom and Jas are here, they wanted to see you". "Alright, let me sleep 30 minutes. Please".

"Brielle-". I was trying to be nice but he was pissing me off. "GET OUT" I yell and roll over to fall asleep again. He just closed the door.

That was a little mean but I'm tired as fuck. It has been a long say.


--------

After I woke up, I talked to Dom and Jas. Jacob and I decided to just leave tonight. He said his mom wanted to see me. So after I said goodbye to my family, we went over there.

We were in the car and his phone started to ring. "Can you check who that is for me please". I'm glad he trust me with his phone and not on some sneaky shit.

"It's Carmen" I sighed. "Ignore it". "What if something happened to the baby? Or with her? You just going to ignore it?".

"It's not a big deal". I don't know if he saw me but I was burning the side of his head with my eyes. This makes me wonder, what if I was going into labor and he didn't pick up?

We finally got to his moms house. "What's wrong?" He asked while turning the car off. "Nothing". "Are you sure because you seem-". "Can we just go inside?".

(They're back in Florida)


I was so glad to be off that flight. It is 11 at night and I am EXHAUSTED. As soon as we got in, I unpacked and went to bathe. I took a bubble bath and laid there until I was ready to wash myself.

I did my normal night time routine. I brushed my teeth and washed my face. I put on cocoa butter and then did my face mask. I put on my onesie and wrapped my hair.

I finally took my ass to bed. I felt Jacob crawl in right next to me. "I'm so glad to have you back" he said as he started to kiss down my back.

"Mhm" I scooted away. "Aren't you happy to be back home?" he asked confused. "Yup". "Then what's wrong?".

"It's been a long ass fucking day, okay? A lot of things have been on my mind and I just want to sleep".

"Okay then tell me. What's been on your mind?".

"Us."

"W-what do you mean, us?" his face showed confusion.

"I'm tired of the bullshit. That's what I mean by 'us'."

"I told you I didn't mean for any of that to happen and it wasn't my fault-".

"Yea I heard you" I say as I sit up in the bed.

"Why would I want to raise my children with someone who has surprise mystery criminals after them? I have to be so guarded every moment just in case one of your little thug criminal buddies decides to show up again. I don't want to do that, I don't. I refuse, Jacob. I do".

"Brielle, come on now. You and I both know that I can't control that at all. I'm sorry that this happened. I'm glad you are safe and I will protect all of us, I promise".

"It's not just that Jacob". His slight smile weakened. "You have another child and don't think because the tramp means nothing to you that you should care about that baby any less than this one. Im serious. I'm not about fathers not taking responsibility of their children".

"She's not a tramp". If looks could kill. "You defending her and shit. Unbelievable".

I am pissed.








(Jacob POV)









I know Brielle isn't very fond of Carmen but she doesn't have to be petty.

"You gotta stop".

"I know you're mad and you have every right to be. But stop blaming and holding grudges on someone you've never met. She didn't sign up for this, it's my fault".

"Nah, she had sex with you just as much as you did that night so stop with that bullshit. SHE barely knew you just as much you BARELY knew her. If you had never did that in the first place, none of this would have happened".

I can't argue with her, I knew she was right. She knows she is right.

"Well I'm sorry".

"Yeah whatever, just be a good father like you're supposed to be. Ignoring her calls and not showing up to the appointments is not an option. I wouldn't want you to do that to me so you won't be doing that with her".

"Okay".

"Now, lemme sleep".

I laughed a little. "I love you Brielle". "I love you too".

Hmm. She has a point.

(Next Morning)





I woke up with Brielle next to me on her laptop. "Good morning" I say sitting up. "Mhm''. I think she was too busy focusing on whatever she was doing to even respond. ''About to go eat something, want anything?''. ''Yea''. ''What you want?'' She didn't even respond.



I wonder what she can be looking at that is so interesting. I was making bacon and eggs. I checked my phone to see the time. It was 7:43. I saw a text from Carmen. It said ''Come early, I want to talk''. I sighed, dreading whatever she could possibly want to talk about.

But I have been thinking about what Brielle told me yesterday. I am going to step up for the baby, it was just because Brielle was being kidnapped and I couldn't think about the baby at the moment.

It kind of makes me feel bad that I yelled at her that day. I hope she actually did record the appointment.

I heard Brielle scream. I turned the food off so nothing would catch on fire and ran to the bedroom. "What happened?" I was scared out of my mind and out of breath.

She was smiling her ass off. "Sorry" She giggled. "Look!" She dragged me to the bed which held her laptop.

"A house? great" I said becoming disinterested. She frowned. "No. Not just a house but my DREAM house".

"Why are you looking at houses?" I asked really wondering. "Ugh, babyyy becaaaausee. This pent house is only a temporary situation. We aren't going to live in here forever. We need to really settle down. We need a place that can be a great place for all of our kids".

"Well, what about this house makes you love it so much?".

"It's a two story house, 4 bedrooms, 5.5 bathrooms, a big ass kitchen, a family or a bonus room, living room, ceiling fans in every room, which is a big deal for me, Sunroom, laundry room, dining room, 2 car garage, which is good so we can fit both of our cars, and an indoor jacuzzi room".

She smiled at me hard. "What's the price?" Her smile completely dropped as if she knew the price was going to be the problem. "$350,000 but trust me it's worth it".

"We need to visit it then". She squealed and put her hands together."Yaay. When?". "Whenever we both have time but I need to finish breakfast and get ready for work".

"Aw, okay". I walked out but ran right back in and pushed and pinned her on the bed. "I wanna kiss". "Boy get your big headed ass off of me" She giggled. "Give me a kiss". She shook her head and closed her lips.

"We can stay here all day". She just shrugged her shoulders. I started tickling her. In between giggles she said "Stoooop".

"Then kiss meee". "Fine" She quickly pecked my lips. "She tried to move but I kept her in the same place". "I gave you a kiss, you are going to be late for work".

"No I won't if you do it better". She smacked her teeth and kissed me much better and deeper than last time. "You happy?". I laughed. "Yes" I quickly pecked her lips again and ran back to the kitchen.

I had forgot that Carmen wanted me to come early. I quickly made breakfast and got dressed.

(Brielle POV)








I want to go meet up with Brian then Asia today. I decided to see Brian first. I miss him.

I came to his house and ring the doorbell and waited. I saw him look out the window and I waved. He opened the door but had no shirt on.

"Why you never have a shirt on?" I giggle. "My muscles need to breath too" he joked. "What muscle? Boy , the way you couldn't even do 10 push ups like last time I checked".

"Well check again" he smiled. I challenged him. "Do it then, now. Give me 20". "I just took a shower". "Don't break a sweat then".

He got on the ground and started. "1,2,3...8,9,10...15,16,17, 18,19, 2-" Before he could complete 20, I push him down. We both laughed then I felt something started to come up my throat. I run to the bathroom and throw up the bacon and egg sandwich, I had before coming here.

I flushed the toilet and washed my hands. I swished some water in my mouth twice. I looked in his cabinet for some listerene. I found some but it never had been opened. When I finish, I walk out and he had a glass of water for me to drink.

"You okay?".

"Yea just morning sickness". "Yea". It became an awkward silence. "Sooo, um how have you been, good?".

"If being kidnapped, almost dying, and helping my stubborn ass little sister get an abortion is your idea of good, then yea". I take the water and sit down on the couch.

"What?" His expression is actually funny as hell.

I explained everything that happened from Sienna to Jacob.

-----

"That's crazy, damn. Are you okay now?".

"Yeah I'm just trying to forget about all of it and start to completely settle down". "What do you mean 'Settle down'".

"You know, get a good house that will be great for the kids-".

"KidS?".

"Yeah, I want more than one kid. Anyway, start saving up for future college funds, working on the wedding and getting another job-".

"What? Why you getting another job? I pay you well don't I?".

He is starting to annoy me.

"Yeah but I can't do this job forever and support a big ass family".

"Wow".

"What is wrong with you? You jelly?" I joked but he didn't laugh.

"Look Brian, maybe I should leave" I say getting up. "Yea, maybe you should" He sighed, lowly.

When I got in the car, I clicked the on star button to call Asia. After a few rings she picks up. "Hey Gur".

"Hey babe, what you up to?".

"Are you busy?".

"I just need to pick up a gift for my niece at the mall then I'm free".

"Oh good, lets meet up there. I need to start getting some maternity shirts and go to BabiesRus so I can window shop and plan for the baby".

"Do you even know the gender yet?".

"No, but that's the fun part about it!". She just laughed. "Alright, well let me go and get dressed, see you". "You too".

The silence had me thinking. I wonder what Brian's problem is, he has been acting real funny since I told him about my pregnancy.

I hope he isn't like.... jealous.





-----------------------------------
Lol. I just had the most ratchet idea for a book, too ratchet to even share. lmao. I actually forgot how many months Brielle is supposed to be, I think it's the second month because it was a month after she told Jacob that she met up with her family and stayed long. lol. I hope everyone enjoyed their Holidays/Christmas/winterbreak/week or 2 without school and I hope everyone has a happy beautiful 2014.
