You promised me

67.

ELIJAH POV

Patiently waiting for Jaelynn to come out the bathroom so we can both see if what I suspect is true. She's taking a long ass time in there. Knocking on the door she yells "can you stop rushing me!".

Sucking my teeth I went to go sit on the bed. Her attitude has been on a ten ever since that party. I see zahrie walking in smiling at me. "Daddy up?" Of course I picked her up. She's such a daddy's girl. Finally Jaelynn comes out the bathroom flinging the stick at me as she walked out the room. I know she didn't throw a stick with pee residue on my shirt.

Forgetting about that I picked the stick up with my pointer finger and thumb and looked at it. Of course I was right. Getting up and taking zahrie with me we went to go find Jaelynn. "Where is mommy?". Zahrie said "kitchen".

"I like the way you think, princess" we hurried down to the kitchen. Of course Jaelynn was there about to stuff a donut in her mouth. "So I was right?".

She fanned me away "I'm trying to eat". Zahrie got down and ran over to Jaelynn. "Some?". Jaelynn took a piece off and handed to her. She quickly ran off to go eat.

"Why are you so shocked you're pregnant?" I asked. Standing next to her.

"Because damn... that one night I decided well let him just do it. I didn't think it would happen so fast" she said stuffing a donut in her mouth.

"What can I say? I'm good at what I do..." I smiled. "But I'll make you a doctors appointment so we knows everything is good. And no fighting what so ever".

"Who the hell am i going to fight? Alexis is dead" she licked her fingers.

"My mum?" I said.

"Oh please! She's pass my beat up stage. I don't fight senior citizens. That's just not a fair fight". I couldn't help but laugh "my mum isn't that old".

"Doesn't matter she aged badly. That's karma that made her age so quickly and prune like". She took the donut box and went in again. This time I took the box.

"You are not about to eat this whole box of donuts" I said.

"Why the hell not?" Zahrie came inside with her hand up at me "some?". Jaelynn smirked "see she wants more. And do I".

Shaking my head I couldn't help but give zahrie more. Jaelynn pouted "the baby wants more". Sighing cause she knew my weakness. I handed her the box and she quickly walked out the kitchen. Following her I see zahrie and Jaelynn on the floor having a donut picnic. This is why I need a boy in this house.

That night...

Jaelynn and I was in bed. She was snuggled up under me. "I'm cold". I wrapped my arms around her trying to keep her warm.

"Can I ask you something?" She asked. I nodded "what?".

"Im not crazy thinking I might have a miscarriage again, right?" She said.

"You won't miscarry this time. I promise you that. It's just your mind being paranoid". She bit her lip "are you sure?".

"Positive. I won't let that happen and neither will Jillian". She didn't say anything else but I knew she somewhat wasn't healed from that miscarriage. "Maybe you need to talk to someone professional about this".

"But I'm talking to you. I don't see why I have to talk to a therapist when I'm clearly talking to you". She doesn't get it.

"Jaelynn I think you're not over that miscarriage and you haven't spoken about it until now. Maybe it'll do you some good to talk to someone about it".

"Nah I'm good! I never spoken about it because I didn't want to burden anyone with my problems".

She's lying.

"Okay.. you know what I was just suggesting it that's all. If you don't want to do it then you don't have to" I said.

She didn't say anything she just laid there snuggled into me. I know she's thinking about something. I nudged her "you okay?". She nodded "yeah I'm fine".

I just hope we didn't get pregnant to fast. And Jaelynn isn't mentally ready to handle this. Especially since she's not completely healed from the previous miscarriage.

If I see anything odd with her I'm definitely forcing her to speak with someone.
