Perfect Chaos || An Eminem Fanfiction

Chapter 33. Arose

It has been 3 long and traumatic weeks.

Marshall had gone straight into a strict detox at home, with medical staff available around the clock, he was determined to get clean, the only downside was not only the withdrawals but also the fact that he couldn't sleep, and hadn't, he just sat around watching tv all night, he had said he felt like he was going crazy.

In the mist of the insomnia Ella had noticed the huge change, almost like when she had first met him, he was different sober.

It was like the real Marshall was back.

Ella got up and walked into the theatre to see a sight she hadn't seen in awhile.

Marshall was sprawled out asleep.

After she checked he was breathing, letting the paranoia get the best of her she too toes out of the room and called Paul.

"He's asleep"

"Really? That's great! I'll call the doctor with the update, don't you worry Elle, he's doing great, he's gonna get through it this time, are you doing ok?"

"I know, I have a great feeling about this" Ella smiled into the phone "Yeah I am, abit uncomfortable but no signs yet"

"Great, keep me posted, I'll be flying out again this week, Dre will be there tomorrow"

"Alright we'll see you then" She said l, then they said their goodbyes and hung up.

Trying to be as quiet as a mouse she too toed into the kitchen and started to quietly cook their food from the menu that was recommended.

The downside to everything was Marshall's weight, he had started to use the machines again down in his gym on night he couldn't sleep, Ella was glad he had taken an interest because as she was concerned with his current state of the no sleep she couldn't help to think maybe the  excersize was helping, he'd also started to write again after scrapping everything he made pre overdose.

Things were returning to normal.

Well as normal as it could be while they were adjusting to the new, but better, clean lifestyle.

"Ella?" Marshall croaked, dazed and confused, looking around the kitchen.

"I'm in here" Ella said walking out of the living area grinning "Sleep well?"

"Damn, how long was I out?" He said after seeing that it was dark out.

"8 hours"

He rubbed his eyes still confused "I actually feel... good"

"That's great! I'm so glad you slept, this is a huge deal!"

Marshall smiled sheepishly.

He looked different, his eyes were no longer clouded and glazed, his skin was clear.

He grabbed her and pulled her close.

"I'm proud of you Marsh, I really am"

"Thank you for staying by my side though all of this, I'm sorry I dragged you through hell and back"

"You don't have to say sorry Marsh, I promised I wouldn't go anywhere remember?"

"No, see baby I do, it's part of the rehabilitation you know that, I have to apologise to the people I hurt through my addiction" Marshall said in a low voice "I mean shit, I can't even remember not only when you told me you were pregnant but most of the pregnancy"

Ella started at the man in front of her, raising her hand and placing it on his cheek "The beautiful thing about life is that you can make new memories"

Marshall smiled "How the fuck did I end up with someone as sweet as you?"

"Well let's see, you got your manager to bring me backstage?"

"Man, probably one of the best post concert decisions I've made in my life"

Ella giggled "Who would have thought a one night stand right?"

"Nah girl, you had me fucked up for months" Marshall smiled kissing Ella On the lips "You're one thing I couldn't quit"

Pulling her up to the bedroom and sitting down on the bed.

"You gonna reminds me about when you told me you were pregnant?" He said with a smile.

Ella looked at Marshall, she though about that day and slumped a little, Marshall's face dropped at her expression.

"No surprised that I would ruin a moment like that"

"Marshall it's was the drugs, don't let this get to you" Ella said placing her hand on his "You um... pretty much accused me of cheating and then called me nothing but groupie slut"

His hand came to his face "What the fuck"

"That's not all"

His head snapped up "What else did I do"

"I said something that I didn't mean, I said who know what you did when you were surrounded by those women, and you slammed me up against the wall, I left before the situation got worse and ran to Kim's"

"Fuck, I'm so sorry, I'm such a piece of shit"

"When I came back you were still waiting for me outside, remorseful and then excited"

"I am excited, and I'm sorry, I promise never lay my hands on you for as long as I live"

"Everything's forgiven Marsh, you don't have to keep saying sorry, you're sober now, that's all that's important"

"You're too good to me" Marshall's said pulling Ella closer to him "How about we watch a movie together?"

"Sounds like a plan, I'll get the popcorn and you pick the movie, try keep it light" Ella smirked "I know what you're like"

"Hey nothing wrong with horror man, it ain't my fault you're scared of some dude in a mask"

"A guy in a mask that can't die? Sure Marsh, nothing terrifying about that at all"

Ella stood up, turning to walk into the kitchen when suddenly a gush of water landed on the floor.

"Uh Ella? Did you just piss yourself?"

"No I don't think soo"

Marshall jumped up hands flying to his head "Oh fuck, does this mean the baby's coming?"

Ella's eyes widened as the realisation set in.

"Oh shit" She said as she heard Marshall yelling for security to get the car started while he ran grabbing a bag and throwing sweat pants at her"We're going to have a baby"
