Leather Jacket

Chapter 35 Worth it

With each month passing I not only got bigger -close to the size of a house - but my emotions were all over the place. No one dared to speak to me or look in my direction other than Marco and Dom, too afraid I'd explode on them causing trouble for Marco. Though if I'm being honest , I didn't mind the peace and quiet either . I just wished it would've been because of different circumstances.

"Are you excited about their genders ?" Dom asked while he helped me fold Dante's clothes.

"Of course! " Today was one of my better days. Happier days.

"Any bets ?" He asked with a smirk as I rolled my eyes at him.

"I mean , a little girl would be amazing but then again , I'd be happy either way." I said with a smile walking over to the dresser.

"You ready ?" Marco asked from the door way while Dom excused himself .

"As ready as I'll ever be." I said with a smile while he took my hand , leading us downstairs to the doctor's office.

"Do you wanna know?" The doctor asks while I looked over at Marco confirming our decision.

"Yes." I said with the biggest smile. We figured that because we made a big thing for Dante - him being the next heir and all - we didn't need to do the same for the rest of our children. It of course didn't mean we loved them any less , just that it would be pointless since these guys doesn't even really care about anything else.

We watched as the little wand glided across the screen while she typed something into the computer before wiping me off , while Marco helped me back up.

"So ?" I said with the biggest most exciting smile as Marco's hand clasped tighter around mine.

"They're both boys !" She said with a smile while Marco immediately connected our lips. He was so happy. I could tell.

"I love you more than you'll ever know !" He said with the brightest smile matching mine as we walked out of the doctor's office .

"Wait up , where are you going?" Marco said laughing while he pulled me back.

"I gotta go tell Dom." I said with a smile trying to get out of his hold, though he didn't loosen up like he usually did. "What ?" I said stepping back down next to him.

"You've been spending an awful lot of time together. " he said growing serious as he let my hand go.

"Okay ?" I said confused.

"I think you're spending too much time with him. " he said folding his arms across his chest.

"That's ridiculous. "

"No it's not. It's starting to look suspicious Alice. I don't want you hanging out with him anymore. "

"What !? He's my bestfriend !" I said growing upset.

"Well I'm your husband!"

I watched him look about as angry as I've seen him. Even more angry than when I told him he couldn't control me. And even that took a lot to move past from that. I was just glad no one was around to witness this fight otherwise we might as well just signed over our lives to them.

"I can't believe you're being so unreasonable. " I said walking over to the couch while he stood infront of me.

"Unreasonable? I think I've been more than considerate to you Alice. I could've had Lucas killed for crying out loud ! But instead I welcomed him into our family. For you. "

"Well wasn't that nice of you?" I said sarcastic. " What do you want from me !? A shower of kisses? A thank you ? Because it seems to me that ever since he got here it's been nothing but trouble for you. Are you jealous or something?" I said getting up again while Marco scoffed.

"Jealous? Of him ? Are you being serious Alice?"

"Yes Marco, I am. Because it seems to me you don't like the idea of someone from my past interfering with your plans. Is that it ? Cause need I remind you that it was your idea to cut all ties with my past, and your idea to go to Miami in the first place!" I said throwing my hands in the air as I walked away.

Grabbing a glass from the kitchen, I started pouring some water for myself when Marco approached me again.

"Dammit Alice ! Listen to yourself ! You sound -"

"What ? I sound like what Marco? Crazy? Is that what you were going to say ?" I said placing my glass down and approaching him while he blew out a breath.

"Okay, I'm just going to pretend this never happened. Because clearly this is just the hormones talking. " he said more to himself than intended towards me.

"Right. Well , then you do that. Infact, do whatever you want Marco. But I'm not sharing a bed with you tonight. I'm moving to the guest room and I'm taking Dante with me. Until you can figure out whatever this is that you have against my past, I don't want to see you. " I said walking back upstairs. I didn't even bother to turn back around as he called behind me. And not a second after I closed the bedroom door , I heard him throwing and breaking a bunch of things downstairs. To think I was happy before and during our appointment. And now just the thought of my sons turning into that someday made my blood run cold.

I spent the night trying to soothe Dante as he cried all hours of the night while nothing seemed to work. The realistic side of me told me he was crying out to his father but I wasn't going to let Marco win me over this easy again. Some kisses and a dinner wasn't going to wash all of this away this time. Even if it meant I'd have to sit alone with Dante's cries for another 4 months , I would. But I wasn't going to let him into our life that easy again. This jealously was starting to become a nasty habit of his , and as things stood now , I didn't know if it was all worth it anymore...
