Chapter Twenty- Seven
It had been six months since Zander and Brenna had been married. She was nearing her seven month of pregnancy and never had she remembered being as happy as she was now. Zander gave her a little tiny bracelet which she noticed had a broken clasp on it. Today she was going to Kelly's to grab something to eat before she went to ELQ. She and her family were growing closer, but she had to admit they were a lot to get use to. Her and Emily were closer they had put the awkwardness of being married to ZAnder behind them. Now Emily was married to Nicholas and nearly four months pregnant with their first child. Edward was thrilled to be able to have great-grandchildren he could spoil. For right now life was great.
"Damn stupid thing," she swore softly as she dropped her bracelet again." But it was given with love so it's worth it." she remembered Zander's face when she opened it. He was so proud to be able to give her something so could show off.
"Here let me help you with that," a voice said from behind her.
She turned around and saw Sonny standing there.
"Thanks," she said softly as he held her wrist and managed to get her clasp to stay shut.
"I've had practice with things like this," he said then he noticed her very pregnant condition" Well is this one yours or did you agree to have another kid for someone else?" he asked with soft smile
"Oh it's mine and Zander's." She said as she placed her hand across her stomach.
"Zander huh," he then noticed her wedding ring." And you two are married. Wow you really have been busy," he stated
"Yeah, and we have a new place of our own. You should come visit sometime. Well, I mean if it wouldn't be too ackward. We've been married for about six month which is about how far a long I am. Not to mention my family and I are just getting to know each other," she said softly
"Yeah Jason told me about you being Tray's daughter," he said
"Yeah she's thrilled about me being married to Zander and being pregnant with his child," sarcasm dripped on every word.
"Yeah, I bet she was," he said with an amused smile.
"Oh," she said as her hand that was resting on her stomach now moved to the bottom of it.
"What's wrong are you okay?" Sonny asked noting her discomfort
"Yeah, I'm just ... uh you wanna grab something to eat with me," she suggested
"Yeah, sure," he said as he opened the door and let her in.
They shared a small meal together and talked about different things that were going on in their lives. Sonny told her how him and Carly were fighting and that things were getting pretty bad between them.
"I'm the last person to give advice, but I'll tell you that you should listen to her and try to understand where she's coming from," she said softly
"Yeah, but I'm sure she was cheating on me with Lorenzo Alcazar." he said his voice full of pain and anger.
"Oh Sonny I'm so sorry you went through that," she said sympathetically." Have you asked her about this?" she wondered outloud.
"Yeah I have, but she swears she's not," he said his eyes averted to the table." I saw her in his arms ... in our bed," he confessed to her honestly
"Wow so, I guess there's no questioned in your mind. Sonny you need to just take a break. Breath on your own without her and if after all that you still love her then see if you can fix things," she said friendly as she reached across the table to squeeze his hand gently.
"How can you be so understanding of this. We aren't even close," he said curiously
"Because I'm human I understand that we make mistakes some can never be forgiven and those that can should be. It all resides in you," she said
"Yeah, but not everyone is as strong willed as you," he said
"I'm not that strong," she admitted" right now I am so scared that somehow I'll end up losing everyone I hold dear," she said softly
"Why?" he asked curiously
"Because nothing bad has happened in nearly a year. Zander confessed to me a while back about a car accident he was in he almost died," she said" I almost lost the man I love before telling him he was going to be a father."
"It's when things are going great where you get nervous thinking something will happen to end it," he said knowing where she was coming from.
"Yeah. I'm use to having to look over my shoulder." She said as her eyes met his." I don't want my child to ever have to go through that. I want him or her to feel safe no matter where they are," she vowed
"That's what I want as well, but I've made choices in my life that will always be there," he said regretfully
"Yeah. I know how that is," she thinking of how Zander use to be mixed up with Faith.
"Hey look, thanks for the meal and talk you should come by and see Jason and Courtney's baby she's so big now," he said as he put some money on the table and stood up.
"Yeah you I think I will later on today sometime," she said as she put some money on the table for her half.
"You're leaving the waitress a big tip." Sonny said
"Oh no I'm paying for my half of the food." she said softly
"Um, no you're not I paid for both our meals." he informed her
"Sonny you didn't have to." she said as they walked out the door
"Hey you sat there and let me vent so it's the least I could do." he said
"Hey anytime you need an ear or shoulder I'm not that far away," she said softly
"You should take care of yourself and eat healthy," he said as they went their own ways.
Sabrina thought back to sonny as she drove home. If she wasn't with Zander she would probably fall head over heels for Sonny because he was what every woman wanted. Then there was Jax the incredibly sexy business man who had a heart of gold. Zander was the troubled soul who had a big heart capable of love. She found her home with Zander. The movement of her baby made her realize that even more. She told the doctor she didn't care what she was having as long as the baby was healthy. So, now all that was left to do was get the nursery in order and buy some neutral clothing for the baby to wear until they bought newer ones. She had to admit she was excited about being a mother. She vowed to never be like her mother. Her child would never question not even for a second if she loved them or not.
