Ashley POV

"You okay?" He whispered softly, his hand gently rubbing my back as I turned my attention from the view of the balcony to him. Your words rang in my head making my stomach knot with each passing second it lingered in my brain.

"I don't know..." I mumbled and he slipped his arm under my legs, the other around my torso as he pulled me onto his lap. That familiar thumping of his heart made me sigh softly. His chest was smooth under my finger tips. "I can't believe he grabbed my neck let alone said all those things... "

"He was high... I fucking remember that look on my father when I was a kid...." I felt his body tense under mine before I kissed over his heart. Dominick's father was a drug user. A man who would beat the shit out of his wife for fun and Dominick would attempt to protect her as a young boy. Let's just say there is a reason he became a fighter. "Even if you weren't with me I know he's no good for you... He's a party person and you're a fighter. One wrong sip of a drink and you could be coming up positive on a test." I lifted my head and looked at him before laughing slightly.

"Relax... I'm here...." I brushed my lips against his. "With you..."

"Mmm that reminds me.." He smirked slightly and lifted me off to the side. In a near sprint he disappeared inside. Moments later his head popped out slightly. "Okay don't freak. So before I even asked you to be my girlfriend I sort of bought something and it got dropped off while we were gone.... I would like you to meet dojo." He walked out with a tiny dog in his hands, wagging his tail from the sudden excitement.

"Dom! O my gosh look at this precious little fuzz bucket." He sat down beside me, Dojo sniffing me as if to figure out what was the difference between Dom and I.

"My doctor said I needed a therapy dog... From you know.... The whole dad thing.... It wouldn't hurt for you to have him too... Considering what your father did." He wrapped his arm over my shoulders and I nodded slowly, taking a deep breath. "Did Gerald know?"

" No... He only knew that my father hit me... Not that he raped me. He'd go even more off the deep end."

"He's lucky I couldn't find him.... I would have his head. Hell I would let Gerald help in destroying that man and your damn mother."

"I tend to let it not worry me anymore..." I placed my head on his shoulder. Yet even in this calm moment I couldn't not think about you.

It was the coming week that a new reality hit me like a brick wall. I awoke and felt my stomach churn before groaning slightly. My body quickly guiding me to the bathroom as I gagged feeling the need to throw up. My head throbbed with each passing second.

" Ash you okay?" Dom slowly wandered into the bathroom, eyes half open and boxers hanging off his hips. I shook my head and clicked off the light. The last time I felt like this I was pregnant.

"I don't know...." He took my hand, giving it a squeeze before leaving the bedroom once I sat down. Moments later he came back with water in a glass and sat down beside me.

" The only reason any female gets up early in the morning to nearly throw up is alcohol and pregnancy.... Don't bullshit me." He mumbled before weakly laughing. "It's okay..." A sigh escaped him and he moved to have his legs on either side of me, my back against his chest.

"I slept with you and Gerald without protection.... I don't need this right now." He was quiet yet, calm. It was comforting knowing no matter what he always seemed to be the rock in the hectic river to stand tall.

"I'll get my assistant to go buy a test. It wouldn't be a good idea for either of us to go buy it... Especially since we've got to get you to that interview today..."

"Fuck... You're right..." He grabbed his phone and sent a quick text before kissing my shoulder. "Dom?"

" Yeah?"

" What if it isn't yours...."

"I'm still gonna be there for it... Whether it's mine or his you know that Ash..." I glanced back at him with a surprised look. I knew Gerald surely wouldn't have said the same thing. It felt like hours later before Sarah his assistant arrived with the test. It seemed like the longest few minutes of my life as I paced, Dom staring at me with a amused look. "You know the faster you pace the faster it shows the results."

"O shut up!" I laughed before hearing my phone go off. I walked into the bathroom and slowly picked up the test. Those two blue lines made my life even more complicated.

"Well?" I took a deep breath before walking back to the bedroom.

"Well... Champ... I think I've got another nickname for you.... Daddy." I smirked slightly as did he before pulling me into his arms. Who would have thunk he'd be so happy about a baby. Especially this early in the relationship. His lips brushed mine before they trailed along my neck.

"Who do we tell first?"

"No one... I wanna make sure everything is okay at the doctor's first... And well as much as I don't want to tell Gerald.... It's still a possibility it is his Dom." He stroked my cheek before nodding.

"Well let's get you to your interview and then we'll call him up? Hopefully he answers when he sees it is me calling and not you."

"He'll think something bad has happened to me then..." I laughed slightly before he kissed me again. This goofy grin on his face.

"I'm gonna be fucking dad..... I'm gonna be a dad!" He yelled into the empty room as I giggled. Life seemed pretty fucking epic in that moment with Dom. As if him and I could conquer the world that you had unsuccessfully attempted to conquer. Yet life always seemed to be more complicated than what lies on the surface. This wasn't some happy fucking ending for us or anyone. This was just a commercial break of happiness.
