AN: Okay, so I have most of the original chapters edited and rewritten, just doing some final tweaks. Amber's mother makes an appearance in this chapter. (Surprised nobody guessed as to who it might be…..)
Also, I would really like to know if people are enjoying this or not. Also, any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Hope everyone is surviving this disaster of epic proportions.
Ooh, Happy Easter too.
Chapter 8
It had been well over a month since Jenny's heart had been broken by the man she thought loved her, slowly but surely Jenny's heart was mending and she was moving on with her life.
It was a beautiful Saturday morning, Jenny awoke from her deep, peaceful slumber, as soon as she opened her eyes a wave of nausea coursed through her body, she threw the covers off, raced into the bathroom and proceeded to throw up for the, god knows how many, time this week.
Eventually she managed to stop her sickness, she wiped her mouth and flushed the toilet, slowly she stood up and looked into the mirror, she was pale and looked very ill, her thoughts were interrupted by the door bell ringing and a little girl screaming in excitement.
Jenny had totally forgot Jethro was taking Stacie out for the day.
She wrapped her dressing gown around her body and slowly walked downstairs, her eyes meeting his, she looked away and wandered over to Stacie.
She knelt down and hugged her daughter before standing slowly back up.
"Have fun Stacie and behave." Jenny said, she watched as Jethro and Stacie wandered to his car smiling and laughing.
Jenny shut the door and raced over to the phone before dialling a familiar number.
"Cregg residence." A familiar voice said upon answer.
"Amber, is your mother there?" Jenny replied, she heard Amber shout for her mom and the elder Cregg get on the phone.
"Hey Jenny, you okay?" CJ Cregg asked.
"Not really, can we meet? I need to talk to you about something."
"About?"
"Personal matter."
"Okay, I need to go to the mall, so meet me there in an hour." CJ said, she decided not to push Jenny over the phone.
"Thanks, see you in an hour."
"Bye."
Jenny hung up the phone and wandered upstairs, she got changed into casual clothes. She got into her car and drove over to the mall where her childhood best friend, CJ was stood outside a clothes store waiting, a bag in her hand.
"Thanks for meeting me at such short notice." Jenny said.
"Food court, then you need to explain." CJ replied.
The women walked over to the food court and ordered their breakfast, they sat down at a table and CJ looked at Jenny as if to say 'Tell me now.'
"I think I might be pregnant." Jenny said causing CJ to gasp.
CJ stared at her friend in shock, "Pregnant?!" she repeated, "You sure?"
Jenny looked at her, "It was about a month ago, we had an argument in my office, one thing led to another and dot, dot ,dot." Jenny explained, "His girlfriend called and he left without a second glance, I have missed my period and I have been sick most mornings, so yeah I think I am."
"Oh god Jenny." CJ exclaimed, "Drug store now, we are getting a pregnancy test and you are taking it."
Jenny just nodded, they finished eating and wandered over to the store, Jenny purchased a home pregnancy test and quickly wandered to the mall's bathroom with CJ in tow.
5 minutes later, Jenny was in tears and was being comforted by her friend, the test results were positive, how was she going to tell him that she was pregnant because of a stupid mistake they made.
Jenny forced herself to stop crying, she grabbed the test and stormed out of the bathroom.
CJ just pulled her friend into a hug until Jenny stopped crying.
Suddenly, CJ's phone rang. It was Amber, calling to tell her that Danny had turned up.
She'd drove home and sat in her bedroom, whilst CJ had gone home to Amber and Danny.
She stared at the pregnancy test before her, the word she feared the most was standing out, she was pregnant.
Jenny looked down at her stomach and let out a sigh as she thought about how big her stomach would look in a few weeks. She had a vague idea as to what her due date would be, the only problem was that she had to tell the father. Something that she knew probably wouldn't be an easy task.
Just then she heard the door open and she knew Jethro and Stacie were back, Jenny wandered downstairs with the pregnancy test in hand.
"Jethro, We need to talk, I'm…", She began. She had expected Jethro but had not expected the entire team and Hollis Mann stood there as well.
"You're what Jenny?" Jethro said.
The team and Hollis stared at Jenny who was trembling with nerves.
"Doesn't matter." Jenny mumbled, she turned and began to walk upstairs.
"JENNY, TELL ME NOW!" He shouted up the stairs.
"I'M PREGNANT!"
Jethro stood there in shock, Jenny was pregnant?!
"And why would I need to know that?"
"Because it's yours, do you remember or have you forgotten that night you screwed me in my office?!" Jenny screamed.
