The Love Lost Within

That's My Baby

Faith POV

I woke up at 2:30 in the morning, I couldn't really shake the feeling off that something was going to happen today, I can't necessarily tell if it's a good thing or a bad thing, but I know that somebody is going to give me some important news today. I was downstairs sitting in the dark living room just thinking about what my day would hold. I decided to get a late night snack for myself. I went into the fridge to pull out some wine, cheese, and grapes. I suddenly jumped when I felt hands on my ass "Relax baby, it's me" Jacob said " Oh my goodness you scared me" I said shaking. "What are you doing up?" he asked "Oh I just came down here because I wanted a snack" I said he laughed "You don't have to lie to me Faith, your eyes are red and you sound like you are very tired, now tell me what's bothering you?" he said "Okay fine, you got me, I couldn't sleep so I came down here" I said "Why didn't you wake me up?" he asked looking at me "Because you were sleep and you were snoring so I just came down her-" he cut me off "Faith, you don't have to ever be scared to wake me up in the middle of the night, I'm always here for you and I don't ever want you to feel like I'm not gone be here" he said "But you were sleep" I said "I don't care, if you need me to be here for you then just tell me" he said "Okay" I said laughing. He soon picked me up, left the snacks and carried me into the front room and we laid on the floor

"Now, tell daddy what's wrong" he said "Well, I just can't shake this feeling off of me that somebody has something important to tell me, I can't tell if it's good or bad though so I'm just a little worried" I said "Maybe it could be something important coming up for you and Tyler for the company" he said "Yeah, maybe you're right" I said "Stop worrying so much, come on let's watch a movie" he said.

Jacob POV

I honestly don't like to see my wife looking so sad and worried because stress is not good for you, it is certainly a silent killer and I just don't like to see her in the stressing condition. "You know what I think would be a great idea?" I asked "Since when you have ideas?" she said laughing "Ha ha you not funny, but what would you say if I told you that I wanted to be the mom and dad of the week?" I asked "Jacob you really think you can handle all of those duties for a whole week?" she asked laughing "Look, the only thing I want is for you to not worry so much, besides I need to hog the children more often because you tak-" she cut me off "First of all, I do not hog the children, you be the one telling me to leave the house and go with Tyler and you send the children off to your parents" she said "Okay, pause, you drop them off, pick them up, cook for them and me, clean up every mess, change most of the baby diapers, and on top of that you work, it's my turn to be the mother of the house" I said she laughed at me "Okay Jacob, I will love to see how this entire week of you being a mother goes" she said "Okay, how much you want to be that I'm a better parent?" I said "I bet you a whole week of doing laundry and dishes that you will be tired by the end of this week" she said "Okay bet, now when I prove you wrong you won't owe me nothing but giving me my credit and saying "Thanks Jay you so sweet, then you gone run and tell Tyler and them about how much of a good man I am for doing this" I said "I can't stand you" she said laughing "I know, but anyway you need to go upstairs and get dressed and ready for work while I gotta prep myself for these motherly duties" I said imitating her.

Faith POV

I wonder how this week would go because Jacob really thinks that he can play "Mother of the week." I don't think it should be that difficult, all he has to do is get up, make breakfast, get the children dressed, drop them off to daycare (Hezekiah starts school next year), then pick them up at 2:30, get them something to eat, and take them to their grandparents house for their little quality time. I thought to myself "It can't be that difficult for him." Jacob interrupted my thoughts "But in the meantime and between time you about to come back upstairs and get ready for work" I laughed "Omg, why are you doing all of this?" I asked "Because, you my baby and it wouldn't be right if I didn't play my daddy role and I mean that in both ways" he said winking "Wowwwww, you know what, I hate you" I said "Yeah okay, say that now but you gone be saying something different later" I swear he has the best comebacks and he be having my ass in check, I really love this man that's my baby.
