Naturally, he keeps me waiting. I'm sat on the bed, bag packed, by the time he decides to show up. "What's going on?" he asks quietly, spying the bag straight away. "I'm leaving" I say. "I've got another room. Jon, we, this, us, it isn't working. We're not happy. We need to accept it and move on. We're not the same people we were seven years ago. I was stupid to think we were. I love you Jon, but we're done. I can't do this to myself anymore." He nods slowly. "You're right" he says, sitting next to me. "Damn it Morg, you're right. I just, I don't think I can handle being a father and a fiancé. I mean, I love JJ, I really do, but everything I do lately is the wrong thing. I'm not father material..." "Don't you dare walk out on him Jon" I warn, standing up. "That kid needs you, needs both of us. Don't you dare let him down." "I won't" he says. "I promise. Anything he needs, I'm there. I'm not going to leave him Morg." I nod, grabbing my bag. "Bye Jon" I say quietly. He nods, watching me as I open the door and step out of the room, closing the door behind me.
"Morg?" Seth calls. I look up, tears rolling down my face. "Not now" I whisper. "Please, not now. I need to go." I turn my back on him and walk quickly to my room. As soon as I've closed the door there's a knock on it. I open it quickly. "Come on" Seth says softly, pulling me into his arms and hugging me tightly. I sag against him, sobbing into his shoulder. He closes the door behind us, leading me to the bed and lying down gently, pulling me with him. "Gonna tell me what's happened?" he asks softly. "I mean, I know this isn't your room..." "It is" I say quietly. "I can't be with him anymore, I don't like what I'm turning him into. I'm bad for him Seth." "What you're turning him into?" he asks, a puzzled look on his face. "Morganna, you're not turning him into anything, you turned him into a decent human being." "So why is he drinking so heavily?" I ask. "He comes to the room long after I'm in bed, gets up just before we leave for the arena, hasn't touched me in weeks. Even mom has noticed something is wrong, so that means JJ will pick up on it soon, unless I put a stop to it now. I can't be a part of it anymore Seth, I have to do what's best for my son, and judging by what Jon just said, being with him isn't it." He nods, pulling me back down to him and putting my head on his chest. "I'm not leaving you" he says softly, kissing my head. "Get some rest Morg. I'm not going anywhere." I nod slowly, falling asleep quickly.
"Hello?" he says quietly. "Yeah Ro, I'm with Morg. Where are you? With him. Ok. No, I'm not leaving her, she's asleep and I promised her I wouldn't leave her alone. You need to have a word with him though. Tell him it's too late to have cold feet about being a father now. Yeah she ended it, she picked up on the change in him. Yeah I'll travel with her tomorrow. Ok, night Ro." "You don't have to stay" I say quietly. "I've been alone plenty of times. I'm used to it." "I'm not leaving you Morganna" he says, making me look at him. "Get used to it. Now sleep." I nod and cuddle into him again. "It's nice actually having some human contact" I say laughing. He chuckles. "Night Morg" he says softly.
Jon travels to the arena with Roman so Seth stays and travels with me. "Meeting guys!" Hunter yells. "You too Morganna. Everyone is needed for this one." I nod and dump my bag in the locker room before making my way to catering. Jon stares at me straight away. "Ok" Hunter says. "Tonight, the infamous crew bonding party happens. We've got a few new people here who haven't gone through it yet, so it's time to dust off the party hats and get everyone acquainted. Not taking no for an answer. See you later." I grab his arm as he starts to walk off. "No offence Hunter" I say quietly. "I just need to leave tonight. Need to get back to JJ." "Is he sick?" he asks quickly. I shake my head. "No, nothing like that" I say. "I just, can't be around Jon at the moment." Hunter shakes his head. "So don't be around Jon" he says simply. "You have more friends here than you realise Morganna. I know what's happened with you and Jon, he's already being fined for punching a hole in a door tonight. You want my opinion? You did the best thing you could do, you got out. I'll see you tonight, you're sitting with me." I groan and watch as he makes his way back to his office.
