A/N: THIS CHAPTER IS GOING TO INCLUDE SOME CHARACTERS FROM JAG AND i DON'T OWN THEM EITHER.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I drove to work to file for maternity leave. I was at the front desk.
"You really pregnant, Jennisyn. Congrats."
"Thanks Lieu. Please don't tell anyone though."
"I won't. Your secret is safe with me."
Mitch was behind us the entire time and heard everything. I went out to my SUV and left. I drove to the doctors office. Today was a checkup that I was having for the baby.
"Well, Ms.Boscorelli, your baby seems to be in perfect health."
"Thank you Doctor."
"Your welcome."
I went home and got mom and we went out to buy paint for the baby's room.
"Have you decided on a theme?"
"Well, teddy bears is cool. But I do want to Put a big chinese symbol on a wall that means New Begining."
"That's a good idea."
"Thanks."
We bought a light blue for the walls, a teddy bear border and the dark blue that we are going to paint the chinese symbol in.
"We'll wait until your dad gets home so he can help paint. You can't be in here. the paint fumes are dangerous. Go sit outside."
"Okay."
I went in the kitchen, got a glass of lemonade, and went on the front porch. The breeze felt really good. Even though it wasn't all that hot outside, I was still very warm.
An undercover car stopped in front of the house followed by a black and white. Mitch got out of the undercover car followed by his partner Tom. Dad got out of the black and white followed by Sully. Mitch came up to me on the front porch which jolted me from the light sleep that I had fell into.
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"Tell you what?"
"Tell me that you were pregnant."
"Mitch, I have my reasons."
He went into calm mode which was a good thing because I think dad was about to pounce on him. Calm mode of Mitch was the Mitch that I fell in love with.
"I'm sorry for yelling. I just...I just want to know why you felt like you couldn't tell me."
"Because of this. I knew you would just come back out of pity and I didn't want that. Now, please just leave me and my child alone!"
I went inside. I didn't want his sympathy or his pity. I was going to prove to him that I could raise this child on my own without anyone's pity. I went upstairs and packed my bags up.
"Where are you going sweetheart?"
"Away from here."
I went outside. Dad, Tom, Sully, and Mitch stopped as soon as I came out.
"Where are you going, Jennisyn?"
"Getting the hell away from here?"
I got in my car and drove. I pulled over on the side of the road; not only because I was crying but because my cell phone rung.
"What?"
"Jenn? Please come back."
"Why? What do I have there anymore? All that's going to happen when I come back is fighting. You and dad will fight. You and I will fight. I'm tired of the fighting! I'm so, so, tired of the fighting."
"So am I. Please come home."
I hung up. My mind was screaming at me to turn around so I did. My whole life was in New York and that would never change. I pulled up in front of Ma's house. I went into the living room where ma, dad, Sully, Tom, an Mitch were.
"Can we, uh, talk outside Mitch?"
"Sure."
We went outside.
"Jennisyn, I'm sorry. I never meant to hurt you or anything like that. Please forgive me. I was just a little aggrivated that you were so caught up with him."
I took my engagement ring off.
"What, What are you doing, Jennisyn?"
"I just wanted to tell you that I think it's best if we don't see each other anymore."
"Jennisyn, please."
"It'll make things so much easier on both of us."
I went inside.
"I just wanted to say goodbye, everyone. I found a house and the lady that owns it is a girl that I went to school with. Her and her husband are letting me stay in it for free as long as I keep the place up. All bills are payed by them and furniture and stuff is included."
"That's a good deal."
"The place is huge three bedrooms, 2 baths, full basement, and central air."
"Wow. Uh, bye."
"Bye."
I went back out to my car and drove to the new house. I saw three cars in front of it.
"What in the hell?"
I got out of my car, grabbed my bags, and went inside. I went in the living room as soon as I got inside. I saw Cmdr. Harm Rabb, Lt. Bud Roberts, Lt. Col. Sarah Mackenzie, and Lt. Harriet Sims. These are my friends from the JAG days. I used to be a lawyer for JAG- Judge Advocate General and I was a Lieutenant when I retired. See, I was in the Air Force and was gone alot so I decided to switch to something that I could still go flying but come home every night. After 3 years of that, I decided to stop altogether. That was when I met Mitch.
"Hi Everybody."
"Hi Jennisyn."
"Hey Dusty."
Dusty was the codename that I would use when I flew. Harm was also in the air force but transfered to JAG the same time I did. I actually worked with him before my transfer.
"Hi Jennisyn."
"Hi Jen."
"What are you guys doing here?"
"We wanted to see how you were doing. We went to Mitch and yours apartment but nobody was there."
"Actually, it's not Mitch and I's apartment anymore."
"What happened there?"
"That's a story for another time."
"Anywho, The landlord said that all of the stuff had been removed and the owner had sold the apartment. We went to your parents house and she said that you had moved here and that's how we ended up here. Why did you and Mitch split?"
"See, Fred, my mothers ex-fiance before my father, has done too much to my family, including things like harassment, rape, assault, and more. Three days ago, he shot my mother while she was on the job and that landed her in the hospital. When I got the call that that had happened, I drove to the hospital and was talking to some higher-up police officals from the department. My father told me that it was Fred who had shot her. I freaked out and will totally admit that my temper got the best of me, and I kicked the crap out of him. While I had him on the ground, I asked him a couple of questions. When he didn't answer, I raised my arm to punch him again. Mitch grabbed my arm and waist and lifted me off of him. I went into my mom's room, fought with her, and when I walked back out, the bomb dropped. Mitch is like 'You act like this is your whole world. You act like taking Fred down is more important to you that being in love with me.' and I said 'Mitch,' to try and stop him and he said 'Forget it. I'm outta here. My stuff will be gone by the time you get home.' and it was."
"I'm sorry."
"I'm not. Since then, he's been coming to my parents house, where I was staying, at 4:30 in the morning, and will not leave me alone. He has serious attitude swings where one minute he can be the happiest, carefree, sweetest guy you know, and the next he will go on a murderous rampage. The whole time this is going on, I was thinking if he only knew that he's going to be a father."
"Congrats!"
"Congratulations!"
"Thanks Mac, Harm."
"Well, I'm sure that if you told Mitch that you were pregnant, that he would come back."
"That's what my dad said. He would come back straight out of pity and I don't need his pity. Besides, He knows. I was at work talking to my boss about Maternity Leave and Mitch overheard. He wants me to come home but the way he is now, with the swings, it could be very dangerous."
"Well, get changed."
"Why? What are you going to do, Harm?"
"We're taking you out dancing and drinking."
"Is that so, Hammer?"
Hammer is the code name that Harm would use while flying.
"Well, I have a place that we can go to."
Everyone loaded into my SUV. We drove over to Grandma Rose's bar.
"This is my grandma's bar/ dance thing."
"Your grandmother owns a bar?"
"Yeah."
"Cool grandma."
