Lady Jaye sat on the couch in the living room of Flint's off base apartment. Flint had been called to the base an hour before for a last minute meeting before Hawk went to DC for his quarterly meeting with the Joint Chief of Staff.

Jaye had been upset when he got the call. They were supposed to go shopping for baby furniture. Flint did promise to come right back to the apartment as soon as the meeting was over.

Jaye sighed and looked at her watch. He should be back in about an hour. She was about to turn the tv on when the phone rang. She slowly got up from the couch and walked her pregnant form over to the phone. Her hand rubbed her very swollen belly as she walked. The babies were very active. She picked up the phone. "Hello?" She said into the receiver and walked back towards the couch with the cordless.

"Hello. Is Dashiel there?" The disembodied voice asked. The voice was obviously Midwestern because of the accent. The woman had a slight drawl.

"No he's in a meeting." Jaye answered. "Can I take a message and have him call you back?"

"Well, hon, this is his momma." The woman said.

"Oh hello. This is Alison."

"Alison? You must be his new housekeeper."

"Excuse me?"

"He told me he was going to hire one to clean up after him. I swear that boy could never pick up his own mess. I was always picking up after him. He would leave his dirty clothes on the floor for a month if I didn't pick them up. He had such a messy room. Wouldn't have been able to tell he did by looking at him. He always kept himself immaculate. He was such a handsome boy. Still is. But I guess you already know that."

"I'm not his housekeeper." Jaye said with a hint of anger.

"Alright deary. Didn't mean to make an offense."

"I'm his girlfriend."

"Girlfriend?"

"Yes his girlfriend." Jaye said angrily but the anger wasn't aimed at the woman but at Flint. "You know the woman carrying his children."

"Children?" Flint's mother asked in total shock. "I didn't know he was seeing anybody."

"We've been seeing each other for a few years now. I can't believe he hasn't told you about me." Jaye's hurt was palpable in her voice. She felt like crying as she slowly sat back down on the couch.

"Oh hon. I'm so sorry. I cannot believe my baby boy didn't say anything to me. With you being pregnant and all." There was a short pause. "How far along are you sweetie?"

"6 months."

"Oh I'm going to kill that boy of mine let me tell you. I'm heading up there and will be there tomorrow mornin'. I'll set his little butt straight."

"That really isn't necessary." Jaye tried to placate her.

"Yes it is. He needs to be a man and not try to hide things from his momma."

"Alright I'll see you tomorrow then. Call back with airline information and we'll pick you up."

"Will do honey. Talk atcha's later." With that the woman hung up the phone.

Jaye hit the end button and growled out in frustrationIf only Flint hadn't dropped her off at home and taken her SUV to the meeting she would have left right then. She'd just have to deal with him when he got home.
