Two Parents - sequel to Me Before You

Moving On

Bella POV

After a long good talk with Maya, I decided to have me and the boys live with my parents for a while. I can't take being in there with Paul cause he did something he can't take back. I packed my suitcase as Maya came in with Justin. "Ready?" She asked. I nodded. "I just wanna do this before he gets here." I said. Justin walked up to me. "Mommy, are we leaving daddy?" He asked. I bent down to his height. "Baby, we're just staying with grandma and grandpa for a while. Ok? We'll be fine." I said. He smiled. I kissed his cheek and picked him up. "Where's Jason?" I asked. "In the car with Bryana. He's asleep." She said. I nodded and grabbed my suitcase. "Are all their stuff in the car?" I asked. "Duh. Lets go." She said. I gave her Jason so I have all my strength to pull my suitcase. We came downstairs and walked outside. I closed the door. I sighed. I don't wanna leave him. I know it. I just can't handle facing him after what he just did. Maya helped strap Justin in the backseat with Jason. I put my suitcase in the trunk and closed it. I got in the backseat with the boys while Maya was in the front. "I'm still not sure if she should do this." I heard Bryana. She sighed. "Bri, he cheated on her with another woman and got her pregnant. What do you call that?" She said. I rolled my eyes. They clearly don't see I could hear them. Justin rubbed his eyes and yawned. Awww! I kissed his forehead. She started the car and drove. Justin began to fall asleep as well. I huffed, watching Maya drove away from the house.

Two hours later, we settled in my parents's house. The boys were wide awake and now playing. I was in a bedroom that had two little beds for them. Jason was on one of them and started jumping. I laughed. "I love this bed mom!" He said. "I know baby!" I said. Justin walked in with a lion stuffed animal. He climbed on Jason's bed and bounced as well. "Roar! I'm gonna eat you!" He said. Jason pretended to roar back. "Race you to grandpa!" He said. They got off the bed and Jason chased Justin. "Justin! Jason! Run slow!" I said firmly. "Ok." They said and did what I said. I smiled and flunked on the bed. I heard a knock and saw Mom near the door.
"You ok?" She asked. I nodded. "Yes. I'm fine." I lied. She smirked. "Its about Paul isn't it?" She said. I huffed. "Why did he do this? Why? Justin and Jason are 4 years old and I still haven't told them they'll have a sister sooner or later." I said. Tears formed in my eyes. She rubbed my back. "You know men are stupid sometimes." She said. I nodded in agreement. "I gotta be honest with you." I said. She looked at me. "What happened?" She asked. I took a deep breath. "The girl he got pregnant...is Rebecca. The same girl I met when we were younger." I told her. Her jaw dropped. "Really? It was her?" She said. I nodded. "It explains everything. I used to be insecure cause Paul could have any girl in the world. He could have any girl to have kids with." I said. "Bella, you're the most beautiful girl ever. Your kids should be your most top priority right now. If Paul can't get himself together and just be a father to them then...you oughta get on with your life." She said. I wiped my eyes. "Paul does wanna be there. Always. Its just gonna be a lot of changes for us. With him having a third child from another woman meaning I'll have to see that hoe all the time. Paul wouldn't abandon his third or fourth kid. I just don't wanna see Rebecca. That's all." I said. She smiled sadly. "Did you tell him you left the house?" She asked. My jaw slowly dropped. Oh shit. I quickly pulled out my phone and dialed his number. "Bella you forgot to tell him you left? Are you serious?" She said. I shushed her as I heard his voice. "Bella, where are you? Where's the boys?" He asked frantically. Oh my god I didn't mean to scare him. "We're fine. We're at my parents house." I said, leaving the room. I went outside in their patio to talk. "Why? You're leaving me?" He asked. I huffed. "Paul, I'm not happy right now. Matter of fact I'm hurt. So damn hurt. You snuck that bitch in our house and now we're at my parents's. I just figured I need time. Just time to breathe from this." I said. He sighed. "Bella I'm sorry ok? If I could take it back I would but I'm not abandoning my daughter. You'll just have to accept that she'll be in my life and in Justin and Jason's life. She's their sister." He said. I fake laughed. "I wouldn't want you to abandon your third kid! I know you wouldn't do that! I don't wanna see that hoe just because she's your baby's mother! When I was younger, I had more dreams than being an artist. A mother. A loving mother to my sons and daughters. Mostly, I wanna have them with the love of my life. And now we have beautiful sons. But I also wanted a daughter that looks like you and me. A daughter our sons would protect. But you ruined that for me! You destroyed that for me! You gave another woman a kid I would've had with you! You gave her a daughter! That's all I ever wanted. A son and my little girl. Why her Paul? I already felt insecure cause you would've had her or any girl in the world. I just need time or maybe a week. From all of this. Bye Paul." I said while tears fell. "Bella! Wait! I'm sorry!" He said. I hung up. I took a deep breath and brushed my hair back.
