Chapter 37

Feeling out of it lately lol Been so busy lately, but I haven't forgot about you guys!

Phoebe POV

It is close to dinner time and Jay keeps calling and calling. I haven't calmed down much but I need more answers so I'm heading back home to speak with him about everything, and this time actually listen to get the whole story. When I get there the first thing I notice is that he is in bed, his eyes are bloodshot.

"Have you started drinking again?!" I shout.

"Baby no, I haven't even touched it. I've been too busy calling you, leaving you voicemails. I need you to come home Phoebe, I don't think I can make it without you."

"Too late for that now, sleeping with my best friend Jay! How could you?! Why would you even drink with her while I'm not home!?"

He stills, rubbing his head, "I remember that night, it is hazy but I remember. We were fighting because of the drinking and going to bars. It wasn't the first time she came on to me Pheebs, when we first started dating when you first moved to NY she had made a pass at me but I ignored it, I didn't say anything because she had been drinking a bit and wasn't thinking clearly. That night she showed up, she said that you were supposed to meet up with her. We drank and drank. I wasn't thinking clearly, I remember kissing and her taking off her clothes but I don't remember anything else. We woke up in bed and I wanted to just be with you and forget this ever happened because I didn't fuck her. If I did I would remember it."

"Well you did Jay and I can't just forget about it, she is pregnant with your child. Or she says it might be!" I'm balling while thinking it should be me pregnant with his baby.

"Fuck no, it isn't my baby. This can't be happening." He shakes his head.

"Phoebe I will do anything, you have to believe me. I didn't sleep with her."

"I can't Jay!"

"Don't do this baby! We are going to get married again with everyone we love there. We are going to start a family. "

"You've already started a family without me!"

"Baby no I haven't, I would never do that."

"Don't call me that anymore, Jay I can't trust you or forgive you for this. I want a divorce."

"You don't mean that, I fucked up royally but don't just give up on me. I was a train wreck before you. You were the only one to ever see the good in me and it made me want to change so I can be someone worthy of you."

"Well a lot of good that has done me now, I'm telling my family that we are getting divorced. You can keep this place; I will stay with my family until I find a new place."

"Stop please. You are going to throw away everything over something that might not have even happened."

"You threw it away! You lied to me, you kept this from me. I can't trust you and I don't feel like I even know you anymore."

Christian POV

Dinner with Ana and kids should be interesting tonight; I want to know why Phoebe cancelled the dinner tonight. Both Ana and I have tried to call her but she isn't picking up. Johnson her security detail said that she is fine just resting and requesting to be alone. My relationship with Jay was getting better but I'm thinking that is going to go down the drain if he has hurt my baby girl. I look over at my exquisite wife; I can't help get sentimental when I think of all that she has given me, unconditional love with a beautiful family. I would go through my living hell all over again if I ended up with this queen of my universe by my side.

Jacob my youngest son is doing well; his behavior is improving every day. I credit his sessions with Dr. Flynn and not having to live with such a secret. I can't help but feel sorry for him; I would have been shocked and devastated to go through what he has. He wasn't ready to be a father but who is.

Jake's phone rings and he asks, "Dad may I please get that? I know the rules but it might be important."

I nod, "Since your behavior has improved I will allow you take the call quickly."

Liv is just playing with her food, "Can Addison stay the night tonight please?" She asks.

Ana looks over at me and I shrug my shoulders like it doesn't matter to me.

After finishing her bite of food Ana says, "Yes, but you have to go to bed early because we have plans to have breakfast with Nana Grace and Grandpa Carrick in the morning."

Liv pouts, "What time can we stay up till?"

"Don't pout; you can stay up till midnight, no later than that because you won't wake up until after noon." I respond.

"Daddy, Jake always stays up till 2 in morning on the weekends! That's not fair."

"Livy he is older than you plus he wakes up in the morning without crying about it."

"Daddy!" she continues to cry.

"Olivia, that's enough. If you want Addie to stay the night you better stop whining and crying!" I shout sternly.

Ana gives me the look like I was too harsh; my sweet wife always tries to keep me in check. I should know better than to raise my voice at Liv, our little princess is more sensitive than our other children. Our other children were so excited to start school but not our Liv, she was devastated that she wanted to spend the day with mommy or daddy.

Jake comes back with his cell phone in hand, "After dinner can I go over to Emily's to speak to her please?"

I don't think that is a great idea, I don't want them alone together after what happened.

"Son, I thought she has broken up with you after everything had happened?" I ask.

"She did but she called right now saying that she needs to speak to me and she doesn't want to talk about it over the phone."

"Well I will have Taylor pick her up and bring her here; I don't want you going over there."

"Dad, I'm a man that is embarrassing."

I chuckle, "You aren't a man, you are boy.." He grits his teeth and I correct myself, "You are a young man, a teenager…. The answer is still the same. I don't trust this girl."

"You don't even know her but fine."

"Jacob, I don't appreciate your tone, you have made improvements so we have been giving you back some privileges. Don't make me regret cutting you some slack."

I look at him sternly.

He continues to eat his dinner, "I know thank you dad."

I can tell that there is something bothering Ana, "Honey what's wrong?"

"I'm just worried about Phoebe; she has completely shut us out. I just feel like I should be there for her, I need to know what is happening."

Christie probably knows something but she won't tell us anything if Phoebe has made her promise not to. I get out my cell phone, "I can see if Teddy has heard anything."

He answers and sounds to be in a great mood, "Hey dad"

"Hey Ted, have you heard from Phoebe at all."

"No but she looks out of it, she is staying at Lexie's. She was in the main room talking to Christie."

"Can you ask Lexie if she minds if we stop by to speak with her?"

I hear Lexie laugh and say, "Of course I don't mind Christian."

After dinner Gail has agreed to watch out for Jake and Liv while we go check on Phoebe. I know we should give her space and let her come to us but it is too hard for us to do. We have hardly got to see her in the past years with college and work for her.

When we get to Lexie's, Christie lets us inside.

"Mom Dad what are you doing here?"

"We came to check on Phoebe, we are concerned."

"She with Jay at her place."

Behind us are two ladies approaching one is in her late twenties and has dark hair and blue eyes, the other looks a lot like Lexie and is an attractive older woman.

The younger woman speaks first, "Hi, you must be Mr. and Mrs. Grey; I'm Marissa Lexie's big sister. It is so nice to finally meet you. Lexie adores you both; she has said nothing but great things."

Ana smiles giving her a hug, "We adore her as well, It is nice to meet you too Marissa."

I smile and shake her hand; she seems like a nice girl.

Marissa introduces her, "This is Victoria, our mother."

She shakes Ana's hand absently. When she moves to shake my hand her eyes light up a bit and she smiles flirtatiously "Such a pleasure Mr. Grey." I can't believe this woman. I want to say something but I love Lexie and wouldn't want to start any drama for her. I know my Ana is fuming and wants to tear Victoria apart. Not just for hitting on me but for the way she has treated Lexie all these years.

We all head inside.

Marissa says, "We didn't mean to interrupt anything, I've just been worried about Lexie because the other day when she was in the hospital. I just needed to make sure she was alright."

Victoria rolls her eyes, "and I need to discuss something important with her. Business related and now that her fling with the man child is over with she should come to her senses and get back to LA."

Ana and I lose our patience glaring at her.

"Don't speak about my son that way; he is a very educated and responsible young man." Ana spits out trying to keep control of her anger.

"Yes mother, Teddy is great for Lexie. I've never seen her happier." Marissa replies.

"Yes because she was so happy in the hospital yesterday right?" Victoria responds sarcastically.

Lexie POV

Tonight is the best night of my life; Theo means everything to me, the love of my life. I have never been this happy before. Wilson is driving us back to my place and I tell him a surprise I have been holding in for a week now.

"When I was in LA for the girl's weekend, John and I were able to hire a new producer for the label. RJ Maxwell, he is incredible and lives in LA. I have decided that my heart is in Seattle with you. I'm officially moved over here. RJ will run the LA office." I smile knowing he will be happy.

He smiles then kisses me until I'm breathless.

"Baby, you are so amazing. I love you." He says looking into my eyes and I'm lost in this moment.

"I love you too Theo."

Once we get to my place to pick up some of the things to bring over to Escala. We are making out as we walk into the elevator up to my place; he is already trying to pull off my dress when he gets a phone call. He talks in the foyer to his brother Chris while I walk into the kitchen going to get some water. When I notice we have a full house in the living room.

My mother speaks first, "We need to talk about you going back to LA to take care of your situation."

I'm standing here in shock that she would actually bring this up right now, "Stay out of my business."

"This is my business, you are my daughter."

"Yeah only when it is convenient for you." I say this hiding my engagement ring behind my back. I know if she sees it, she will flip out and lose it telling everyone my secret before I can even tell Teddy.

Theo comes up to me making sure that I'm okay eyeing my mother, "Hi Mrs. Miller."

She gives him a dirty look.

Marissa says, "Hi again Theo. Good to see you again."

"You too" He says giving her a hug.

My mother just can't leave things well enough alone, "I thought your little fling with my daughter was over with when she was in the hospital miserable and not eating."

"Ma'am we have worked out our issues, we are in love. Sometimes we will have fights but we always work them out."

She shakes her head, "I'm leaving and Alexandria I'm having Jennifer book you a flight to LA first thing tomorrow morning."

"Mom quit the crap, I'm staying in Seattle. I already told you this. I've hired another producer to take over the LA branch. My decision is final."

"You think you can talk to me like that. Fine I will make you an appointment here to take care of it."

"Stop saying that already."

Teddy is getting angry at her but trying to keep his temper under control because she is my mother.

Christian comes over to us, "Shit Mrs. Miller, would you just give her a break, stop treating her like shit."

"Mr. Grey, don't tell me how to treat my daughter. This is your Theodore's fault, she is young and he is ruining her life. He was some big player but now that he found someone worth a damn he knocked her up on purpose to keep her from moving back to LA."

I yell, "I decided to move here before I found out about baby Grey!"

What do you see happening next? Think Teddy will be happy about baby Grey? Reviews are much appreciated!
