     It happened. After Chester made me feel loved that night, I ended up getting pregnant. It was an extremely exciting day when I found out.

     However, Chester didn't take a bunch of breaks like he said he would. In fact, I had to go through most of the pregnancy without him. He would always be working.

     During the nine months of my pregnancy, I was alone. Chester barely had any time to talk. He get done with his work when I'm already sleeping in bed. Then, he wouldn't help much when I was in a ton of pain.

     Another thing that happened during the nine months, I realized I don't love Chester as much as I thought I did. Most of my 'love' for him was based off my desperation to feel loved and have someone there. Of course, it's a little bit too late to realize this.

     I also can't stop thinking about Blaze. It's been about a year and a half since he told me to leave, but I just can't let go. I keep comparing Chester to him, and in the end, Blaze is better. I've been constantly wondering how he's doing and what could've been.

     But now, I'm sitting in me and Chester's room. In my arms is our son, Casper. He's a few months from being one year old.

     He's a small baby, but still adorable. Casper has his fathers light blue and white hair. He also has Chester's skin tone, markings on his face, and his left eye is blue. Casper's other eye is purple like mine. He definitely looks more like Chester than he does like me.

     Even though I realized that I don't love Chester, I love Casper with all my heart

     Even though I realized that I don't love Chester, I love Casper with all my heart. He's one of the greatest things to ever happen to me. Casper is my first child, and I will love him no matter what happens.

     My appearance has changed slightly too. I cut my hair a bit shorter, and put it in a ponytail. I keep my hair that way all day.

     Me and Casper were on the bed

     Me and Casper were on the bed. I held him in my arms and watched him play with a small block. A smile rested on my face as I watched him.

     Even though I don't love Chester like I thought I did, I still wish he would take a break from work. He almost never sees Casper. Our child deserves to have a father figure in his life, but Chester works all day.

     I've tried talking to him about it before, but just continues to work. It's easy to tell he doesn't care much for me or Casper. I'm just a fool for not realizing it sooner.

I can't just leave Chester even though I don't love him. I'd have no where to go, and it would be almost impossible for me to make enough money to support me and Casper. Besides, Casper needs a father in his life. I know I can raise him on my own. I'm already doing that now.

If I was still with Blaze, would we have children by now? Would he be the same kind of father as Chester?

Then again, I would never give up Casper. He is my precious little boy. I would sacrifice myself for him in a heartbeat if it was needed.

I set Casper down in the bed, so he was sitting on his own. He waved the block around in the air, and stuck his tongue out. I giggled, and ruffled his soft blue and white hair.

     Casper is such a sweet little boy. I want to give him everything he could ever ask for, and more. Unfortunately, he was born with me and Chester for parents. He might get caught in the conflict between Blaze and Chester. Would Blaze try to hurt him? He's the child of his enemy and ex lover, so why wouldn't he?

   I looked down at my left hand. A scar trailed across the back of my hand. It was like a permanent reminder of what happened. My head was fully healed a long time ago, but this scar remained. It reminded me of Blaze.

I wonder how Blaze is doing.
