Sloane

I turned the lights of so she could get a little more comfortable. She fought through each and every contraction while I gave Maya and Nate and update.

"I can't believe you." She threw a cup of Ice chips ate me. All at once the chill overwhelmed me and I had to maintain my composure.

"I thought you were tired of talking about it?" I stood across the room so when could direct the conversation. This woman was going to drive me to get high.

"I can't sit here and look at you and not know what the hell kept you away for three while days." She wasn't yelling but I could tell that she was serious. I instantly grew annoyed. My head dropped staring at the floor while I thought about what to say.

"There our no way in hell that you love me and you disappear like that. Is it because we weren't having sex? Is it because I was emotional?" I listen to her run down a a list of things that she thought contributed to my absence.

"Emerald how could you even say that? You are having my baby, I am worried about you health both, physical and mental. I dont care about anything else. Nothing I say is going to be a good enough explanation as to why sometimes you up and I want there or why I may not have came home at all. When I tell you I'm not cheating on you I mean it." She looked me up and down and could tell it wasn't the whole truth.

I respected that as her body changed she was uncomfortable with sex on even being touched. I thought I could handle not being with her in that way because she was having my baby and it would be over soon. I let those thoughts with me until my boyish ways got the best of me.

"Well what's the reason? If you cared about..." She stopped, wincing at the pain of a contraction.

"E I can't talk about this while you're in pain like this."

"You don't  give a fuck." She made me continue.

"I keep Vaughn in the club because I know that he is family to you, that's the only reason he isn't in the ground. It's a 24 hour..." I looked up and saw how much pain she was in. Telling her that I let Joy touch me let alone suck me off, it would kill her.

"Just focus on the baby. Please baby just focus on our son." I ended my thought.

"Everything was fine and dandy... I don't wanna do this anymore. I won't be the only one who gives a fuck about this family." The doctor came back in to check in on E.

"Like I said before yo ass ain't going nowhere. The sooner you realize it the sooner we can move forward." I moved out of the way allowing the doctor to do her job.

"You'll be pushing in with in the hour. This isn't first baby boy if the day so excuses my excitement." She laughed allowing E to return to her position. The doctor let us know that people would be in and out preparing the room for the delivery.

"I hate you." She burst into tears as soon as the door shut.

"Tell me what you want me to do." I walked closer to the bed. I repeat the statement multiple times.

"Be honest Sloane. While I sat home, pregnant who were you fucking with and why?"

"I wouldn't put you through that again." Nurses began to come in and out of the room as promised.

"Erin James is here for you. We can bring her back if you would like." One of the nurses said ask before leaving. I could see E's face light up. She hadn't seen her youngest sister in quite some time.

"That would be great. Could you please?" She shifted in the bed. I'm hadn't gotten high on my own supply in a while but in don't know if I would be able to stay sober.

"I want a divorce you lying mother fucker." Erin entered the door as soon as she began speaking.

"A what?" Erin day her bag in a chair before walking over to her sister. She immediately dried E's tear's.

"She is supposed to be giving birth not worrying about whatever you have been doing." She was clearly pissed off but we had the same goal. I needed my wife to be in the best head space possible to bring my son in the world.

"Do you want me to leave?" I asked he straight up.

"Will that make this easier for you?"

"Go!" Erin yelled at me while E sobbed.

"Emerald?" I asked her again.

"Get the fuck out of here." Her sister yelled again.
