Chapter 28: Noah

Noah sat at the table looking over to Daphne. She was staring at her phone waiting to receive a message from some guy named Jeff. He had seen the name when he had come home from looking for jobs. He was hopeful that by the time summer came he would have one. That only gave him about four months. He knows it sounded like a long time, but it didn't feel that way. Not many people where willing to hire someone who is practically deaf.

So it had been two weeks since he had told Bay about maybe keeping the baby. He has been trying to find the best time to tell Daphne, but she never seemed to be in the best of moods. And now she is talking to some guy. It wouldn't usually bother him, but when she realized that he was home she quickly hid the screen and had her 'I hope you didn't see that ' face on. Then to add to it when I asked who she was texting she said a girlfriend from school.

She has never kept anything from him as far as he knew and this hurt. Who was this other guy? Was he just a friend or someone she liked? Noah looked to at his hands. Could he hear? And speak? Noah had feeling that Daphne always liked hearing guy's over deaf guy's.

What if she does like this Jeff guy? Would she leave him? Noah's stomach dropped. Would she do that to him? He didn't want her to be with him and be unhappy either. What about the baby? Would she put it up for adoption? Could he have the baby? Were men allowed to do that? Well Angelo did.

Noah had to fight back the tears that threaten to escape his eyes. This was never something he had ever anticipated. He had thought that they were happy. He was going to spend the rest of his life loving her. And recently he had planed spending the rest of his life loving his child. He stood and went to the door. Daphne hadn't even noticed him walk past her. This made him mad. Who the hell did this Jeff guy think he was?

Noah went to the only person he thought could answer his question. Luckily she was still in her studio. The garage was open and she was dancing slightly while mixing paints. He smiled watching her. Bay really was a great person. He did really like her. He frowned at the scare that was visible on her back do to the fact that the back of her shirt was see threw.

Noah still felt a little guilty that she had been threw the Jason thing but she told him that she was sure it would have happened anyway. She had made him promise not to blame himself and most of the time he didn't but still seeing the scars, both physical and mental, made him want to kick himself.

He went in and tapped her on the shoulder. She turned quickly in surprise, then smiled when she saw Noah. He had to smile at her. Her stomach seemed to grow more every week and she just seemed like she was made for the whole pregnancy thing.

"Who is Jeff?" He asked. He didn't want to do the whole small talk thing. He needed to know if he should be worried. Her face went grave then to worried. That didn't make him feel very good. His heart speed up a bit and he wanted to scream.

"He was an old...friend of Daphne's."Bay answered slowly. He could tell that she wasn't telling him the truth. She looked like she was unsure if she should tell him.

"Please tell me who he is. I have to know." Bay took a deep breath then nodded. She motioned for him to sit and she took a seat too.

"He was her boss. She was working in this fancy kitchen. Actually much like the one she is working in now. At first, she hated him. He was mean and didn't like the fact that she was deaf. He thought it made her a safety hazard."Bay paused taking in air. "Then they started to fall for each other. He soon found out that Daphne was underage and then not to long after that he almost lost his job due to an investigation over an "inappropriate relationship in the kitchen." He couldn't take it so he ended it. She was really hurt by it."

Noah nodded taking it all in. He had never known of this. So he did need to be worried about this. He sighed. He wasn't sure what he was going to do. Bay looked at him worried. She put her had on his should to comfort him. He hugged her. She hugged him back. She wished she knew how to make him feel better. She could tell him that there is nothing to worry about. That Daphne is over him, but she knew it would be a lie.

Noah held onto Bay and for a second he wondered if he had made a mistake leaving her for Daphne. He knew he hadn't He connected with Daphne, he loved her. He pulled away and smiled at a worried Bay. She tried to return the smile. The effort made him laugh a little. Bay smiled at this. He walked away from her not going to the guest house, but going to the only person he thought might be able to help him. Emmett.
