Crazy Love

Chapter 37

Jenny's POV

I sit in the front yard with Lily, looking at the clouds. I hear some yelling from the house, but I ignore the trouble. Next thing I know, Lilac slams the door and comes rushing out of the house.

I burst up, picking Lily up. I run towards Lilac, who's about to get in her car. I grab her arm with a firm grip.

"Where are you going?!" I say.

"Somewhere. Anywhere away from Mitch!" she responds. That was not what I was expecting. They're usually so attached.

"Why?" I say.

"He's going to PAX!"

"So? Jerome is too."

"He knows I don't want him to."

"They didn't want us to go down to Arizona when," I choke on the next few words,"Mom was...dying...But they let us go because they knew we needed to go."

"They don't have to go, though!"

"Lilac, they have fans. They already uploaded the vlogs! They can't back out! They don't have a choice now!"

"Jenny, you don't understa-"

"Yes I do!"

"Jenny..."

"They need to go! Accept that!"

"I can't, though!"

"Yes you can!" I say.

"Let me go."

"I can't! You almost lost the baby! It was a miracle that she's alive! You can't lose her again! And what about Mitch?!" I say, pointing to the house.

"I don't want to talk to Mitch. I do care about the baby..."

"See?! You have to stay here to keep her! She's in danger if you noeave without the meds and everything!"

"Jenny-"

"No! You're staying!"

Lilac stares me straight in the eye. She gives a pleading look, wanting me to let her go. She finally says,"Fine. Can we go to the grocery store though, I need to get something."

"Yes, that we can do. We get in the car after buckling Lily in her car seat. "What are you thinking of naming the baby?"

"I honestly don't know..."

"Jenny, are you sure you don't wanna go to PAX with me?" Jerome says as we pack his stuff up.

"As much as I would love to, I can't. We have Lily and especially Lilac with her prego belly."

"Right..."

"Yeah..."

"I'm gonna miss you," he says.

"I'm gonna miss you too," I say. He leans down and kisses me. He grabs me by my waist and I grab his to pull him in closer. I put my arm up on his shoulders and he squeezes my waist. We kiss each other harder.
