IN THE MORNING-
"Mom, mommy." Owen said waking me up.
"Hi baby." I said kissing his head.
"Get up, they said I can go home today!" He said excited.
"Good sweetie." I said getting up to stretch. I was wearing purple sofee shorts and a lartge t-shirt with the McKinley emblem on it.
"I got breakfast. Waffles for Owen, oatmeal for me and french toast for you. I know its your favorite. This is from the cafeteria downstairs but it looks pretty good." Sam smiled handing me the tray with french toast on it.
"Thanks." I said taking a bite.
"I'll be right back." Owen said running to the bathroom.
"So, thanks for coming down last night. He really missed you. He wouldn't stop asking about you."
"No problem, its what any mom would do." I said finishing off my breakfast.
"A good mom." He smiled.
"Hi Sam, where's my little man?" Mercedea said walking in. She placed her phone on the table and gave Sam a long kiss.
"Owen's in the bathroom. He's got a small bladder like Sam." I joked.
"Hey, hey, hey. Dont hate." He laughed.
"No one could ever hurt you baby." Mercedes said deliberatly pulling him in for an even longer kiss. I looked away hurt.
"Dad can we go now?" Owen said excited.
"Sure, 'Cedes could you bring the car around?"
"Of course." She said leaving.
"Get your bag Owen."
"I'm going to get dressed." I said picking up my bag and heading to the bathroom. I changed into jeans, a black t-shirt and my old Cheerios jacket. As I was about to leave, I was hit with a wave of nasuea.
"Luce, you okay? You've been in there a while." Sam called.
"Yeah. Just brushing my teeth. I'll just met you at the car." I sad inbetween puking.
"Okay." He called back. I picked up my bag to take out my toothbrush when I puked for a third time. I finally brushed my teeth when I was done.
"Lucy? Is that you?" Mercedes called.
'Oh crap.' I thought.
"Yeah, I thought you guys left." I said nervously as I opened the door.
"I forgot my phone so I came back. Were you just throwing up? Back to your old ways?" She said bringing up the past.
"What? No." I lied avoiding eye contact.
"Yes you were. You've been acting like a bitch, throwing up and I thought you looked bigger. You're knocked up." She said eying my stomach.
"No, why would you say that?"
"Maybe your not. Nobody would want to sleep with you anyway." She spat.
"Really?" I challenged.
"Yeah. I bet you havent been with anyone since Sam." She said casually.
"Really? Well I guess I have to inform you that I am pregnant and it's your fiance' Sam's."
"He would never cheat on me. Especially not with you, unless he found out... nevermind. He would never sleep with you." She spat angrily.
"Well he did. I'll pee in a cup to prove it."
"You cant ge your own man can you? In high school you wanted Finn, then Puck, then Sam and repeat. You let him go, get over it bitch." She said before I smacked hr across the face.
"Sam loves me." I said defensively.
"He loves Owen. You mean nothing to him. If you did he would never have divorced you, or would be marrying me now. The only way you'll get him is if you tell him your pregnant."
"I didnt tell him, I'm not going to." I said fighting back tears.
"Good. Then have fun raising your bastard child alone." She said leaving.
"You forgot your phone." I called. She turned around and I chucked her iphone at the wall befoee it broke into a million pieces, just like my heart.
"I'll tell Sam your getting a ride. I hope I dont see you when I get home from work." She said angrily. After she left I sat down on the recliner and cried. I leaned in and it smelled like Sam; the perfect mix of axe and cinnamon with vanilla. I let the tears that were building up, pour out. I called Puck and within a few minutes he was here. I took my bag and we walked to his truck in silence.
"How did you get your old truck?" I asked as I got in.
"My mom had it." He said getting in.
"Can I lean on your shoulder?"
"Sure." He said moving over. I went closer as he wrapped his arms around me. I put my head dw and cried. He asked me what was wrong and I explained everything he missed.
"You know thats not true, Sam does love you. I can see the way he looks and acts aroun you, its different then when he's around Mercedes. Why did you guys get a divorce ayway?"
"We tell everyone that we were arguing but theres a real story. I got pregnant again when Owen was three with a baby girl. We named her Caitlin."
"So what happened?"
"When I was around four months along, I had a miscarriage. We were just about to start telling people when it happened. After that we both kind got depressed. They said it wasn't my fault but I still felt guilty. I'm past it mostly now, I took meds and so did he but it hurt us to think about it. Today we would have been married eight years." I said remembering.
"I'm so sorry." He said conforting me.
"Thanks, I still miss her but it doesnt hurt to think about her anymore."
"Why don't we go to Sam's so I can get my stuff? And you can say bye to Owen."
"Sure." I smiled. "Thank you, it was nice to just talk to you and hug you."
"Yeah, the last time we did something like this was after Beth was born."
"I love you. Your a great friend. Best friend." I said smiling at him. I leaned over and kissed his cheek.
"I love you too. Always besties."
We stopped at Sam's and I gve Owen tons of hugs before we left. We got back to his truck and drove ten minutes to the other part of Lima where Beth and Shelby lived.
