Chapter Thirty-Eight: Not my daughter {Long ass Chapter}

Jessica finds out Jake has been cheating on her with a mysterious girl. She confronts him. "Hey where have you been lately?  You've missed an ultrasound? And a doctor's app for the baby?" She asks. Jake looks at her and flops down on the bed. "I've been hanging with a new friend." Jake half lies.

Cotton comes in yawning with her eyes drooping. Jessica carefully picks up the lightweighted child and puts her in the bed carefully. She kisses her cheek. "Sleep well my princess." Jessica whispers in Cotton's ear. Cotton's giggle fills the room. Jessica and Jake both smile. But Jessica wasn't done with Jake just yet. "Who's this new friend?" Jessica asks as she rubs Cotton's back. "Her name is Ella." Jake answers without any emotion at all. Jessica found his behavior odd. "You're cheating on me Jake!" She yells at him. Jake immediately got up. "No I'm not!" He defends himself. "You're fuckin lying!" Jessica yells louder than before. "Why would I fuckin cheat on you?" Jake yells back. "Because I'm pregnant and you want sex." Jessica says. Jake was taken aback. "So you think I'd cheat on you with a girl I just met!" Jake yells. His anger was getting worse. Cotton starts waking up. "Yes I would actually!" Jessica crosses her arms. Cotton just looks at her like 'what the'.

"Well then your a dumbass if you think I'd cheat on you just because I want sex." Jake yells at her. "Sure." Jessica rolls her eyes. "You know what I've had enough of your accusations." Jake got closer with his fists clenched and Cotton wasn't taking any chances. "What are you gonna do hit me? Do it! I dare your pathetic ass to do so." Jessica taunts him. He almost hit Jessica but Cotton got in the way and pushed Jessica into the wall. She got a hard punch to the nose and upper lip. Cotton's heartbeat went haywire as her adrenaline kicks in from the hit. "Cotton!" Jessica screams as she grabs Cotton who was just staring at the ground. Tears threatened to fall from her eyes. "Cotton what?" Jake asks as he turns around. He sees Jessica and Cotton in the corner of the room. Cotton crying her eyes out with a bloody lip and nose. Jessica was trying to comfort her. "Stay here Cotton." Jessica whispers to her. Cotton nods.

Jessica gets up and walks up to Jake. "That is it. You said you were going to change and look what you did to our daughter! She is bleeding because of you!" Jessica snaps at him. Jake shook his head. "Well she's not my daughter!" Jake yells. Cotton's heart instantly broke at his words. Jessica was speechless. Cotton gets up and throws a necklace at Jake. "I hate you! I hate you!" She screams. "Cotton I didn't mean it." Jake tries to say to her but Cotton wouldn't listen. "I knew you didn't want me! No one did! I trusted you! I loved you. But you don't love me. A-and that's okay." Cotton cries and yells all at once. Cotton was breaking at every word she said. "Cotton I-" Jake starts but was cut off. "Just leave me alone." Cotton runs out of the room. Jessica who quietly looks at her engagement ring. She slides it off her finger and says to him. "And we're done." Jessica drops the engagement ring on the floor and walks out to find Cotton.

Johnny who heard everything, walks in since his room is right next door. Jake knew he was there. "Did I just lose my girls?" Jake speaks with such a sad tone. Johnny comes up to him and sits down. "Look at the necklace." Johnny hands Jake the silver necklace. It had 'my family' engrave on the lockets cover. Jake opens it to see a perfect portrait of him, Jessica and Cotton. His heart broke staring at the photograph. "I had a perfect family and I had to just ruin it." Jake says quietly. Johnny spoke again. "Give them time. They'll come back." Johnny gets up and leaves Jake alone to stare at the locket and engagement ring. I never meant to hurt them. God I'm such a screw up. Jake thought as he cries.

"Cotton baby where are you?" Jessica yells as she runs out into the snowy blizzard. "Mummy why did daddy kill you?" A small child's voice speaks out. "What Cotton please come out. This isn't funny anymore." Jessica yells. "Mummy your not real." A boy's voice rang out. Jessica was blown back into the warehouse wall. What the hell is going on? Jessica thinks as the icy wind tears at her skin making her wince. "Mum why did you leave us?" Says a familiar male voice. "I didn't leave anyone." Jessica screams out. "Mummy you did." Says another familiar female voice. "He killed you." A small female voice spoke out. Jessica could see faces coming within view. Two of them were Cotton and Axel. The other three she didn't recognize. "What is happening?" Jessica whispers to herself. "Mummy you must remember!" The first child spoke. "Remember what!" She yells.
