Chapter 25 Suddenly everyone trusts you

“I can't believe you would take it” I shouted angrily.

“I swear love I didn't” Cay said looking at me like I kicked a sick puppy, him being the puppy. I sighed, them buggers I know they took it, they are always taking those.

“I know you did, you and Ash have been against me having them,. What is your problem?” Yes you could say I was snappy, come on I was full on pregnant here. I was so ready to pop, or pee, I didn’t now which. I groaned and growled all at the same time. How could they?

“We didn’t, love you need to calm do-”

“Don't. You. Dare. Say calm down, I will skin you alive Caden James Mills, you bet your bottom dollar, I will” Cay slumped down on the bed, probably done with arguing with me. And that ladies and gents is why I have two mates, when ones down the other will pick up the slack. It works well most of the time, but right now no. I sent Ash a death glare just as he was about to open his trap, effectively shutting him up right fast. “Look I know one of you did it, you had to. They were in the mini last night before bed. I just want one, only one. You both don’t get it.” I cried, putting my face in my hands, as my emotions ran rampant, tossing aside the anger for sad, full on cry mode. “They were so good, just perfect. I need them back, I need one.... Just. One” I snapped. Ah there’s the anger.

“Baby we don’t know what happened to them, but we will get you more Okay?” Ash said as he stepped up to me, wrapping his arms around me. I sighed, I'm such a freak. I just want my darn pickles is that really too much to ask.

I nodded in response and I heard Cay calling the kitchens asking for them to bring me pickles. I just needed the vinegar, and saltiness. Mhm yummy.

Welcome to my last days of pregnancy. In fact, I have been in labour now for six, did you hear me six hours. Nothing too painful just a pinching sensation really, but I am so not in the mood for anything. I already forced myself on Cay and Ash earlier, knocking down three of those six hours but I am so restless.

I'm also restless because they have put off the plans to deal with Miguel. I told them that I didn’t want to do it after the babies are born, it was supposed to go ahead in three days. But no they decided to start coming today. I can't sleep, I haven’t really done anything except pace and move around and jiggle, I jiggle a lot.

I got a good lecture from the midwife lady and the Doctors that came telling me to relax and breath, try to calm myself down. I told them to eat dog poop and laughed at that and then cried. I am excited I swear, but I am also terrified. These babies are coming into the world and Miguel is still alive and loose. I am scared he will come for them. If they are out of me all their protection is gone, they are left completely exposed.

Now I know with all the security and Ash and Cay, you would think I would be safe. Ya I don’t think so. Miguel and his new found identities have us up a creek without a paddle, leaving nothing to go on.

Daddy and Pen flew out yesterday ironically enough, so now we are all here. On the subject of Daddy, Brian has taken into hiding apparently. He had stuck with his routine and one day he didn’t come back. So to top off labour, I now have to figure out where Brian went? If he is working with Miguel and hussy mate? Does this mean they are done waiting? Are they gonna make a move? If so what? My head is constantly being bombarded by this and I can't shut it off. So now I am paranoid on top of being in labour, and I am so snappy I could cry.

I sighed as I looked over at Cay laying on the bed. I pulled out of Ashes arms and walked to the bed. Pulling myself up I flipped sideways and laid my head on Cays chest, his arm under my head as he pulled me to him, kissing my temple.
