Behind Closed Doors
Chapter 2
It was the first five minutes Chloe had, had to relax. She couldn't sleep since the encounter with Robert Grange, her stepfather.
Insisting that her babies stay with her, The nurse had finally taken them out for awhile.
It was 12:05 p.m., and Chloe was sitting in her hospital bed. Her CD player was playing one of her favourite songs 'All I have' by J.Lo
Chloe had her eyes closed, so when she opened them and she saw her best friend standing near her bedside table. Chloe jumped.
'Hey' she said as she removed the headphones, she turned the CD player off
'Hey, did you have them, how are they?' Jennifer asked anxiously
Chloe laughed 'Their in the nursery, they've just left, I had them with me since the birth, this is the first time we've parted'
'Oh right, god how was it, did it hurt?' Jennifer asked eagerly
'Yep, I was in agony' Chloe answered truthfully 'Don't think I'll do it again?'
'I've just realised something' Jennifer said 'I haven't asked what they are!'
'A little boy, and a little girl Josh Justin and still don't have a clue'
'Oh that's so sweet' Jennifer squealed
'So anyway enough baby talk' Chloe said 'what's going on an NYH?'
'Oh you know the usual, expect you know Molly Leayroad?'
'Oh yeah the geek in math!'
'The same' Jennifer confirmed 'It only turns out that she's going out with Kyle Graham' Jennifer said. She started to giggle her eyes bright. If theirs one thing Jennifer loved it was gossip.
'Oh my god, Kyle Graham!' Chloe said shocked
'Yeah they were caught kissing in a car at Make out creek! Jennifer said proud
'Wow, The popular jock and the geek! Who'd thought?' Chloe paused for a minute 'How do you know it's true?'
'Because I caught them!' Jennifer said shouting, she laughed really hard
The girls giggled and laughed for a good 15 minutes, telling each other gossip.
The babies came in. Both sleeping
'Oh gosh Chloe, they're so adorable!' Jennifer said in a hushed vice
'Do you want to hold one?' Chloe asked.
Joshua woke up then, crying a bit.
'Can I hold him?' Jennifer asked
'Of course' Chloe got out of bed, Picked Joshua up and carefully handed him to Jennifer.
'Oh Chloe, wow!' Jennifer said in awe
Chloe decided to hold her baby girl then.
As she sat in bed, looking t he daughter, with her best friend holding her son. Chloe got a brainwave.
'Can we swap babies' Chloe asked
'Sure' Jennifer said smiling
After a lot of help, they swapped babies.
'You know I haven't named the girl?' Chloe asked Jennifer
'Uh-huh' Jennifer said. Her eyes fixed on the beautiful baby girl
'I just thought of the perfect name' Chloe said
'Oh what is it?' Jennifer said
'Jenna Rachel Green' Jennifer looked up at Chloe sharply.
'But that's my nickname, wont it get confusing?'
'Nope, I'm naming her after you whether you like it or not!'
Jennifer's eyes turned moist.
'You'd do that for me' Jennifer said tearfully
'Uh-huh, you've always been there for me, never just left me, always talked to me when I had problems, this is a thankyou'
'That's so sweet, It means the world to me!' Jennifer said
Noticing the clock on the wall. Jennifer sighed 'I have to go home, I'm babysitting for the Wilson's'
'Okay' Chloe said
'I'll try and see you tomorrow, okay?'
'Okay'
Jennifer put Joshua in his crib, and left.
Slowly and painfully putting Jenna in her crib. Chloe went back to bed.
Just as she got in her bed and closed her eyes. The door opened.
'Oh god Robert, leave me alone' Chloe pleaded
'No' Robert yelled, he shut and locked the door
'You're going to do what I say, understand miss?'
Chloe nodded. He came closer to her, he stunk of smoking and beer. It was clear to Chloe he was very drunk.
He dragged her into the bathroom of her private room.
About half an hour later. Chloe sat next to he toilet. Sobbing. He'd done it again.
