The Outlaw & His Keeper

Chapter 18 - Leaving?!

Christa's POV - 

At two in the morning I woke up needing to vomit. I quickly tip-toed out of the bedroom, being careful not to wake Ash, and ran right to the bathroom and threw up all my stomach contents. 

Then came the stomach acid. 

At that point Ash came in the bathroom and rubbed circles into my back, comforting me. 

Then a tired Jenna came stumbling in with a box in her hand. Fuck. I now understood. 

Jenna shooed Ash out of the bathroom and locked him out. I took the test and waited five minutes. 

I then looked at it and it was positive. Great. 

What if what happened to Jenna and CC happens to Ash and I? What if Ash doesn't want the baby? What if I don't want this baby? 

CC's POV - 

I heard a ton of walking around in the kitchen so I went downstairs to investigate what was going on. 

I saw my tired Jenna stressing out. Poured a glass of water, grabbed a Tylenol, and a ran a rag under cold water. 

"What's going on?" I questioned, rubbing my eyes. 

"Christa's pregnant." She stated. 

She stopped for a minute and she had her body pressed up against the counter, on her phone. 

I'm gonna take my chance now. I slowly wrapped my arms around her waist from behind, for a moment she leaned on me. But then quickly shoved me off of her and ran upstairs. This is progress.

Christa's POV - 

After vomiting all of my stomach acid up, Ash helped me back to bed which I could tell hurt Jenna's feelings. 

Jenna handed me a glass of water and a Tylenol, then told me what I can't do when i'm pregnant and I got annoyed with her. 

"Can you just leave me alone?" I snapped, I wasn't stupid. After I told Jenna to go away I watched as she let a tear slip down her cheek. I really didn't care, I just wanted to cuddle up with my Ashley. 

Ashley's POV - 

Jenna was telling Christa what not to do, then all of a sudden Christa just snapped and told Jenna to leave.  

I got up to check on Jenna because she was like my little sister. 

As I walked closer to her room and I heard a lot of shuffling around. 

I knocked on the door and she opened it. 

"Oh hey Ash." She simply said. I saw all her bags with stuff in them ready to go. 

"What's going on?" Then it clicked, "You're leaving?!"

Jenna's POV - 

"You're leaving?!" Ashley panicked. 

"Yes, nobody wants me here, I need to go...Take care of Christa. I'll tell you where I'm going, and only you...I'm moving to Florida. Tallahassee. I'll write down the address here. I don't want CC or Christa coming after me, understood?" I stated. I needed to get out of there. I was going to go to Christa's and I's old home. I told her I sold it, but never did. 

"But what do I do when they ask me where you went?" Ashley questioned with a confused face.

"I don't care." I said before picking up all of my bags and walking out to my Uber. I can't believe I'm leaving. Just as the Uber started to leave I looked out the window to see CC in only his boxers running down the yard with Christa crying in door way into Ashley's chest. 

The Uber stopped as CC stood next to the window. I rolled it down and instantly regretted it. 

"WHAT THE FUCK JENNA! YOU CAN'T LEAVE! YOU'RE PREGNANT!"  

"Drive." I said to the Uber driver. he nodded his head in the mirror. I rolled up the window as he drove off. 

CC should have expected this to happen. He was going to make me abort, and as for Christa, I didn't want her to have to help me raise my child, or deal with the fighting between CC and I. I needed to leave. 

Christa's POV - 

She left. She just left. CC slowly walked back up to the house while I was crying into Ash. I can't believe her. I didn't mean what I said, and she knew that. 

I saw a note sticking out of the pocket of Ash's skinny jeans. It read an address for Florida. 

It looked familiar but I just can't place it. 

"Where did you get this? This is the old house I shared with Jenna before the apartment." I stated stumbling over my words as I snagged the little paper. 

"Oh, uh I found it while unpacking and I was planning on asking you about it." He answered.  

"Oh." I said. 

I went into the house with Ash and CC. 

CC now was crying while walking up the stairs to his room, which ended up in him walking face first into the doorway. 

"FUCK!" He shouted. Ashley and I looked at each other for a moment then laughed.
