The Little Things

Prologue

Jessica's POV

It was December fifteenth and here I sat with my head against the cool tile on my bathroom floor. I lifted the towel that was pooled next to my hand and wiped my mouth. I groaned and sat up letting my stomach settle slowly and then the feeling hit me again. I leaned back over the toilet and threw up again.

I flushed and rubbed the bead of sweat from my forehead as the bathroom door opened. I turned to face my brother. His face was twisted in concern. "You ok Jess?" He asked.

"Does it look like I'm ok?" I snapped leaning my neck against the cool marble stone of my tub. I was a mess and I think I knew why but I wasn't going to voice my opinion to my brother. "Sorry Ty. I'm not feeling to great right now. I think I ate something that isn't agreeing with me." I joked and sighed running a hand threw my hair.

"You want me to have mom call you on from school?" He asked still standing in the door frame.

"Yeah." I answered trying to get up again. This time the world stayed still and I didn't feel the need to throw up. I walked to the sink and grabbed the glass that sat on the counter and filled it with water. I took a swig and spit it back out trying to get rid of the awful taste out of my mouth. "Is Amber staying home?" Amber had moved in with us a few weeks back to be with Tyler because of the baby

"Yeah she's sleeping right now. She was pretty bad this morning." Tyler said tapping th wall with his fist once. "I've got to head out. Don't want to be late for school. I'll tell mom on my way out. Love you sis." Tyler said smiling at me.

"Love you too Ty." I smiled weakly back. Once I knew Tyler had left I slammed my hands against the counter and turned my face to the mirror. I growled and turned away. I throw off all my clothing and started a cool shower. I stepped into the cold spray and sighed letting it run over my sickly heated skin.

I crouched down and began to cry. I had my hands wrapped around my lower abdomen knowing what was wrong with me. I was almost two months late and had been getting sick every morning for the last two weeks and as of late it was getting worse. There was no way I could hide from this fact any more. I was pregnant again.

I pulled myself up and held my head high as I finished my shower. It was not a terrible thing to be pregnant again. It was just a little hiccup in my plans. I shook my head at that thought and laughed. "It's not a hiccup. Its a new chapter in my life that I'm going to embrace." I sighed and turned off the water. I stepped out and grabbed a towel off the rack. I wrapped it around me and walked from the bathroom and sat on the edge of my bed picking up the cordless phone my father had bought for me after Caleb and I became engaged. Caleb was not moving in until after we married and I couldn't keep racking up th minutes on my cell phone. So now I had my own land line.

I dialed a number that I knew almost by heart. I was calling my OB/GYN. The phone rang for a few moments. "Hello Dr. Allen's office. How can I help you?" I smiled remembering the voice of the nurse.

"Hello. This is Jessica Simms could I speak to my Aunt please?" Yes the doctor was also my step mother's sister. I smiled.

"Sure thing Miss Simms. Hold on for a moment." I sighed when she said 'miss Simms'. I had to be called Miss at school and didn't like it used outside of their.

I was put on hold only to have the phone be picked up and I smiled when the sweet soft voice of my aunt hit my ear. "Hello Jessica what is it that you need?" Her voice was so sweet instead of the harsh tone that most doctors had. She didn't even have that business tone either.

"Hey aunt Michelle. I need to set an appointment without my dad or mom knowing. You think you could fit me in today?" I asked hopefully. I crossed my fingers and closed my eyes. I heard a sigh over the line.

"How late are you?" She asked knowing why I needed to appointment. I took a deep breath. She knew that if I missed a month it was stress but any more then that and something was wrong.

"About two months late. I missed the end of October and last month." I said sheepishly.

"God Jessica how could you have been so careless." I heard the disappointment. "First your brother gets Amber pregnant and now you. Please tell me the father is Caleb?" She pleaded. I laughed.

"No its Reid." I tried to make it sound like the truth.

"Oh dear lord." I could hear her slap her forehead. I laughed louder.

"No aunt Michelle Caleb's the father again. I'm surprised that mom and dad didn't tell you I'm engaged." I said happily.

"Well then I see no harm in you being pregnant again. So congratulations on both counts." I heard the smile in her voice.

"Thank you. So can you fit me in today?" I asked standing up and holding the cordless phone to my ear with my shoulder. I let my towel drop and my eyes flashed and my door locked. I walked to my dresser and began to dress.

I heard pages flipping and I smiled. Yes! Maybe I could get this little plan of mine to work. "I can fit you in in about a half an hour from now. My first appointment canceled. Amber has an appointment after yours so you can bring her along."

I was grinning brightly. "Thank you so much aunt Michelle. I'll be there with Amber as well." I throw on a shirt and pair of shorts.

"Your welcome. I've got to go. Bye Jess." I heard the phone click before I could say bye back. I laughed loudly. I walked back to my bed and hung up the phone and pat my sleeping dog on the head. I heard Bella cry and I dashed out of the room trying to act sick but feel happy at the same time. I heard footsteps in Bella's room and smiled knowing that it was Amber. Amber had been going into Bella's room and helping me with her since she found out she was pregnant.

I sighed and opened the door finding Amber indeed with my daughter. Bella was still crying however. I walked up behind her and took the girl from her arms. Bella smiled softly to me and stopped crying. "Hey baby." I cooed softly.

"How do you do that?" Amber asked softly not knowing how I interacted with the baby in my arms.

"You'll learn how to react to your child when you have him or her. Its not something that can be thought, you just know." I smiled as Bella began to coo. I laughed.

"I know I'm just nervous thats all." Amber was three months along, slightly ahead of how far along I thought I was. I figured I was about two months along if it calculated right. I had sex with Caleb the third week of October and it was now the second week of December, so two plus four plus about one and half lead me to seven and a half weeks.

"It will be fine Amber trust me. I hear you have a doctors appointment in about an hour." I said matter-of-factly as I walked around the room rocking Bella side to side getting her to calm down. Bella had been up about and hour ago and had eaten.

"Did Ty tell you that?" She smiled and sat in the chair watching me pace the floor.

"No I called. I have an appointment a half and hour before you." I stated waiting for her to put two and two together.

"Your pregnant?!" She screeched loudly. I laughed softly.

"How did you guess?" I joked as Bella feel asleep again. I set her down in the crib and looked to Amber. "You can not tell anyone. I'm taking you to the appointment and that is all you tell my mom, dad, Caleb, Tyler and the others. Got it?" I said harshly. She nodded and we headed from the room getting ready to leave the house.
