Janet's POV

Today's the day of my first baby scan and I could barely sleep last night because I've been so excited about seeing my baby for the first time.

I've been trying to call Timmy all morning because he said he'd come with me, but he's still not answering his phone.

"Is everything ok?" Ocean asks coming in the kitchen and sits down at the table. "Not really" I sigh heavily. "I asked Timmy if he'd come to this baby scan with me and he's not picking up his phone"

"I'll still be with you" she smiles at me through pursed lips. "Are you sure you don't mind coming?"

"Of course not" she shrugs. "I'm gonna make DJ and Neavaeh some cereal. Do you want some?" She asks going over to the counter and I nod, while trying to call Timmy and this time he finally picks up.

"Hey, I've been calling you all morning. Are you still coming to our baby scan? It's in an hour and..."

"I can't" he cuts me off "but you said you would"

"I know, but I have to go to school and stuff you know? Plus My mom and dad would flip if I skipped school"

"It's not skipping school of your going to see your baby" I frown and he doesn't say anything for a moment.

"I'm sorry, but I can't plus I have gym first period and those scans are more for the girls anyway"

"No it's not and..."

"I gotta go. I'll you later" he says quickly and hangs up.

"Are you ok?" Ocean smiles sympatheticly placing some cereal next to me. "Timmy said he doesn't wanna come because it's more of 'girl thing' and he doesn't wanna miss gym" I frown. "Some people aren't very good with hospitals and stuff. Micheal never comes with me when I take the kids for their injections"

"Really?" I say surprised since her and Micheal do everything together. "He went a few times, but he's not very good with and stuff"

"Why would that bother him? You guys never had a problem with using needles before and use them all the time for your methadone thing" I frown confused. "It's not the needles he's scared of. It just makes him uncomfortable when the kids get their shots because he hates seeing them get so upset" she smiles at me through pursed lips. "I'm sorry I didn't mean it like..."

"It's fine" she cuts me off "anyway. I wouldn't worry too much about Timmy. It's not like your alone. Me and Micheal are gonna be here for you every step of the way" she smiles changing the topic.

"Good morning" LaToya smiles walking into the room and walks over to the counter and starts making herself some coffee. Ocean about to speak, but she cut off by Veah calling for her. "I should go give them this before they get more hyped up" she says carrying to bowls of cereal into the living room.

"What have you done now?" LaToya says once Ocean leaves the room. "I haven't done anything" I frown. "Well you obviously said or did something for her to get upset" She raises an eyebrow at me and I sigh heavily rolling my eyes. "All I said was that it was weird that Micheal is uncomfortable about taking the kids to get their shots since he an Ocean use needles all the time for..."

"What the heck kind of thing is that to say!? Do you think that it's fun for them to have to do that!? Trust me it's not" She snaps cutting me off. "I know it's not and I didn't mean it in a bad way"

"Well maybe you should learn to think before your you act for once. They don't have to help you, you know"

"And here we go again" I roll my eyes, knowing what's coming. "Why don't you quit getting at me all the time?"
