Bad Parents

Miranda's pov

I worriedly paced the floor, panicked and scared. "Baby?" I am so scared. I don't know what to do! I feel a hand on my shoulder. "Stop! Don't touch me!" I shout, shaking. "Honey you've got to calm down!" "How can I calm down?! The people who stole my life from me are out of jail!!" "They won't touch you!" I can't fight back the tears and stumbled to my knees. He hugs me tight. "They won't get to you. I promise. They'll have to go through me and a nine millimeter to even get a chance." My phone rings, making me jump in surprise. I don't even bother to answer it. "Come on honey. You've had enough excitement for one day." He says and I feel his arm under my legs and before I know it, he's scooped me up bridal style. "I'm so scared." I whimper, my face buried in his chest. He picked up my phone and I cried quietly as he walked out with me in tow. "Wait." I gasp, grabbing the doorframe. "What about the puppy?" "We'll worry about it later." He says glancing behind us. "The baby isn't due for a while." He sets me in his truck. "I'm gonna protect you. You know that." "I know b-but I'm still scared." "Don't be." He says hugging me and walking to the driver side. I stare out the window, nervous and shaky. My phone rings and Jason answers it. "Hello?" ... "And who may I ask is calling?" ..... "Um.. No. I know what my mother in law sounds like." I look over at him worried. "Tell me who you are or I'm hanging up!" I hear a feminine voice yell, "Let me talk to my daughter!" But Jason hangs up. I'm really worried. I think it might have been the woman who kidnapped me.
