You And I Against The World

Ain't It Funny

Jen and Alex haven't been speaking since the whole situation happened.. it wasn't awkward there was just lots of tension between them.. Alex was always at work and he did everything he could to try to spend more time with Jennifer and the kids but his work schedule just wasn't letting him. Until he finally got a weekend off.

Alex's P.O.V.

I got in my car and drove home. I'm glad to be seeing my girlfriend and my kids for once. I rarely see them because of work.

I stopped by the store and got Jennifer some of her most favorite flowers and her favorite chocolates. I quickly checked out then drove home quickly. Once I got home I pulled into the driveway and parked the car and walked quickly inside the house with the flowers and chocolates.

I went up to my room I share with Jennifer and she was reading a book and drinking her passion tea from Starbucks.

"Baby... I finally got a weekend off and I brought you something.." I said to Jen and she completely ignored me.

She flipped a page in her book and continued to read. I sat beside her and kissed her shoulder softly... I know she can't resist this.. and I haven't kissed her in a while..

She pulled away and kept reading. I took her book and gave her the flowers and chocolates. Still nothing. No reaction.. no smile.. just a poker face.. she looked at me and was not amused by the flowers and chocolates.. I know it'll take more than this to try and get her to talk to me but.. I just want to show her that I care..

Jen looked at the flowers and chocolates then handed them back to me. She didn't want them.. it seemed like she didn't even want me near her.. she gave off an annoyed vibe.. maybe I should just leave her alone.. I set the flowers and chocolates at the edge of the bed and I started to massage her feet tenderly. She pulled her feet away and kept reading. I laid beside her and kissed her shoulder again and softly.

"Jennifer talk to me please... I miss hearing your voice.." I begged. She just turned her back to me as she laid on her side and kept reading. I looked at her and began to kiss her side softly. She then swung her elbow back at me hard and gave me a bloody nose.

"Fucking hell jennifer. I'm trying to show you that I still care and that I love you.. I'm trying my best okay?!" I yelled and groaned in pain as I held my nose then went to go clean my nose and stop the bleeding.

Jen turned and looked at me. She got up and walked to me.

"Sure I'll talk to you... I'll give you a taste of your own medicine... just you wait.. it'll happen one day. Just watch." She said and punched me hard in the gut which caused me to groan in pain more.

She then grabbed the flower and threw them at me. "I don't like these anymore. They remind me of your toxic love... which is why I hate them.. and you." She said and walked away angrily. I sighed and managed to stop the bleeding. I cleaned up the sink then went to go check on the kids. Max and Emme weren't really happy to see me. Neither were my own kids... I guess everyone in the house really hates me..

I sighed and went into the guest room and stayed there. Jennifer and the kids went out to dinner without even telling me.

A few hours later, I heard the door open. The kids and Jennifer came back and got changed to go swimming. Jennifer was sitting at the edge of the pool looking very pregnant but extremely sexy as always.

I looked out on the balcony and saw the kids having fun.. I looked down at Jennifer and she looked so beautiful and just amazing.. she took her hair out of the pony tail and let her hair down. Her beautiful hair was flowing perfectly because of the cool summer breeze.

I went downstairs and sat beside her. "Can we talk..?" I said softly.

"There's nothing to talk about... all out of no where you're trying to come back and make yourself known in my life..? Now you care because you are so called "Changed"? That's a whole ass lie. You should feel bad that you're even lying to yourself. You should just leave because no one likes a liar and a cheater. And an abuser.. and a disrespectful person.. and maybe a shit talker? Should I go on? I have so much more things to say? Should I pull out my scroll?" Jen replied in an annoyed tone and said the last sentence sarcastically but in a rudely manner.

"I..." I was trying to speak but I felt so hurt.. I regret what I did..

I looked at Jennifer and handed her a small box then left. She looked forward and waited til I left to open the box.

I got her a ring that would mean a lot to her.. and it was also her favorite color... Emerald Green.

She looked the the ring and inside of it said: I love you Macha 13.

Jen kept looking at it then put it back in the box.

Jen's P.O.V.

This guy really thinks he can earn my trust back with some flowers and jewelry. Does he not know me? He's acting like he never knew me before.. I can't even look at him the same way without seeing him ready to whoop my ass anytime I'd say something that would piss him off or just trigger all the rage in him. I honestly don't even know if I'm even ready to even talk to him or even build a relationship again with him... I just lost all respect for him.
