Its been three weeks since Blake's mom died. Since she died Blake has acted so different. I can understand why he's acting different but, I feel like me and Blake drifting apart. This is the worst time for this to happen. The baby is due in about two months. Wow it doesn't seem like it has been that long. I go downstairs and Blake is watching t.v. on the couch.

"Morning babe", I say kissing Blake.

"Get off me", he says pushing me. I feel tears fall down my cheeks. I see that Blake is drinking. He never drinks. He really isn't taking his mom death well. That doesn't give him an excuse to hit me! I can't believe him. I go upstairs as quickly as I can.

"Renne I'm so sorry", He yells  chasing after me up the stairs. I slam the door and lock it. I cry harder.  I find myself crying so much I can't even see what I'm dialing into the phone.

"Hello", Morgan answers.

"Hi mom", I say trying to hide the fact that I'm balling my eyes out. But evidently she figures it out.

"Renne why are you crying", she asks worried. I told her that Blake hurt my feelings. Hopefully it was believable, since I am 7 months pregnant she probably assumes that's the reason I'm so sad. If I told her he hit me I don't know what she would do.

"Do you want to come home for a while", she asks happy she might get to see me.

"I can't mom I'm due in two months", I answer.

"I think it could be good. You haven't been home in a long time", she says trying to convince me. I think to myself would if Blake gets mad? Maybe he will understand that I need some space for a while. He'll probably be angry I'm leaving with only two months left, I couldn't care less right now what his opinion is.

"Oh what the heck, im coming home", I say excited.

"Yay I'll send you a plane ticket in the mail", she says excited. We then say our goodbyes and hang up the phone.

A few hours pass by and I forget that Blake is still down here and I try to be quiet so he wont hear me, but of course he does.

"Babe im so sorry I didn't mean that", he says trying to get me to forgive him.

"Don't babe me. You hit me", I say in a angry voice.

"And I was drunk. I promise I won't do it again", he cries gently grabbing my hands.

"Don't touch me", I say pulling away.

"How can I get you to forgive me", he asks.

"I don't know you can think of that while I'm at my moms house", I explain.

"I don't want you to leave", he cries.

"I just need some space", I say.

"But you're due in two months", he says trying to make me stay.

"It's decided I'll see you when I get back", I explain still angry. I hurry upstairs as fast as a pregnant women can walk before he can say anything else. I lay on my bed and cry into my pillow. I can't believe Blake! What is wrong with him? When I get back he better have a good apology! I see the mail man through the window and run as fast as a pregnant woman can and go outside. I get the ticket out of the mailbox and run inside. I pack my bags and go downstairs. My flight leaves in two hours. Mark is at his girlfriend's so I write him a note.

Dear dad,

     Blake and I had a small fight. I need some space so im just going to go to mom's for a bit. I will call you when I get there. Don't worry about us we will work it out. See you soon

                                    - love Renne》   

"Will you drive me to the airport", I ask Blake.

"Yeah of course", he says. I get in the car and don't say a word the whole way there. We finally get to the airport and I start to get out when Blake says "Babe I really am sorry", he says trying to apologize one last time.

"Bye", I say. I let him kiss my temple and I get out of the car. I get my stuff out of the trunk and go to where my plane is boarding. I give the flight attendant my luggage and sit in my seat. This is going to be a long ride I think to myself. I put my earphones in and go in my own little world.
