First Love Never Dies
Aubrey woke up in the morning to find Jesse, running his fingers softly through her hair. Aubrey was glad that she was now eight months pregnant, they only had one more month to go until they get to meet little Ellie and Aubrey couldn't be happier, but pregnancy was still draining her and sometimes she felt bad having to lean on Jesse for everything.
"Morning beautiful" Jesse placed a kiss on Aubrey's forehead before leaning over her stomach "Morning to you too princess" He kissed her stomach before sitting up. Aubrey shuffled herself up so she was leaning against the headboard and Jesse scooted closer and stole a kiss. Smiling into his lips, Aubrey stole a kiss herself. "I love you so much" He mumbled.
"I love you too" He kissed his way along her jaw line, swiftly moving to her neck. Aubrey let her eyes fall shut, focusing on the feelings of Jesse's soft lips.
Aubrey's phone suddenly rung and she groaned as her eyes flew open, grabbing her phone off of her bedside table.
"Hello?"
"Good morning, Aubrey" Aubrey held her head in her hand as she heard the familiar voice of her father.
"Morning, dad" Aubrey sighed. She felt movement in the bed and watched Jesse rummage through the drawers.
"How are you feeling this morning?" He asked.
"Uh, pretty lousy actually" Aubrey sighed, noticing the way Jesse turned around to look at her with a confused expression.
"Oh let me guess, Jesse has something to do with this doesn't he? I knew it" Aubrey warily eyed Jesse, who narrowed his eyes and shook his head as he walked off into the hallway, obviously hearing her father's words through the phone.
"Dad" Aubrey whined.
"Aubrey, you may not be able to see it but I do, that boy is going to leave you as soon as that baby is born" Aubrey pinched the bridge of her nose as she let a few tears fall. Was her father right?
"How do you know that, dad?" Her voice cracked and this didn't go unnoticed by her dad.
"Aubrey, I know you're really emotional right now but I just don't want to see my daughter getting her heart broken again"
"I hate just breaking down and crying all the time, dad. I know he's just trying to help but sometimes Jesse just gets me riled up so easily when he keeps doing things for me!" She usually didn't vent to her dad because he was normally the one she was venting over. "It's sometimes just really, really annoying, he makes it out like I can't do anything for myself" The tears were flowing steadily down her cheeks by this point "I'm in love with him dad, I know I am because I've never felt this way about someone before but sometimes I just need some air"
"Aubrey, he may seem all helpful at this moment in life but just you wait till he has to be the one holding your hand through labor, he'll be sure to run for the hills weeks later" Her father's words were starting to make Aubrey question her and Jesse's relationship after Ellie is born.
"I-I need to go, dad" Aubrey stuttered before hanging up the phone and letting it drop into her lap as she covered her face.
Jesse had heard Aubrey and her dad on the phone and apparently she "wanted some air" so he was going to spend a few hours at the garage with Jace, only letting Aubrey with a simple note. Yes, of course he was pissed about what he heard, he went out of his way to help Aubrey and her daughter and she just wants him out of her face. Well he was giving her what she wanted.
"What are you doing here, Jess?" Jace asked as Jesse wandered in the garage, hanging his hoodie on the passing.
"Uh, just Aubrey needs some time to herself…you need any help?" He sighed.
"She okay?" He asked, concerned as to why the blonde didn't want to be with Jesse.
"I have no idea dude" Jesse walked up to his brother who was lifting up the hood of a car he was working on. "I heard her on the phone with her dad. Apparently me helping her is becoming annoying"
"She's hormonal, dude, she'll come around, trust me" Jace assured, wiping his hands on his overalls.
"Oh! That's what I was going to ask" Jesse placed his hand on his brother's shoulder, who narrowed his eyes at him slightly "Would you be able to give me a raise?" he asked pleadingly.
"Sorry, there is absolutely no chance, bro" Jace replied apologetically.
"Why not?" Jesse almost whined to his older brother. "I'm bending over backwards for Aubrey and it's not like she can work at eight months pregnant"
"You're bending over backwards for you pregnant girlfriend and I'm bending over backwards for this business Jess, I can't give you a raise!" Jace snapped.
"If Sarah was pregnant, I would give you any money you needed and you can't even give me a few extra dollars an hour to help out Aubrey, a girl you've also known for years?!"
"I can't do it Jesse! I can't afford it, and don't even try to pull that one on me because you know I would help Aubrey if she ever needed it!" Jace had never hit his younger brother in any way before but he was certainly ready to at this point.
"Fuck you then, Jace!" Jesse exclaimed, grabbing his hoodie and storming out of the garage to his car.
Aubrey sat on the couch, crying, she still couldn't stop her mind running through things that could happen between Jesse and her ever since she got off the phone with her dad. She also had no idea where Jesse went to because there was nothing left, notifying her on his location.
She lifted her head as she heard the front door open and close again.
"Hey, what's up?" Jesse asked softly, taking a seat next to Aubrey.
"Where did you go?" She ignored his question and rubbed the tears away from her cheeks. "You just left"
"I left a note because apparently you need room to breathe" It came out a lot more coldly than he hoped and regretted it when Aubrey scowled at him. "Here it is" He swiped a folded piece of paper off of the table and handed it to her.
"I'll get out of your face for a while because I'm heading to the garage. Wow Jesse…" She crumpled it up and threw it on the floor.
"What's wrong with you today?" Jesse asked.
"No Jesse, what's up with you? I was on the phone then I came through and you weren't here, I thought you left me…" The tears were back and she mentally cursed herself for it.
"I'm sorry I'm not a person who likes to be bad mouthed by his girlfriend's dad" Jesse stood up and started pacing the living room. He needed to keep himself calm because she had an excuse, she was pregnant but he wasn't. "And also, I'm sorry if I'm helping you so much you're getting annoyed?" It came out more like a question and Aubrey held her face in her hands.
"You're gonna leave me Jesse" She blurted out along with a flooding of tears. "As soon as Ellie's born you're going to get up and leave me!"
"What made you think of that fucking idea?!" Jesse wasn't one for raising his voice and especially swearing at Aubrey but he couldn't stop the anger building up inside him. "If you're dad said that, I swear to god I'm leaving right now to set that man in the right place!"
"Maybe you will leave me" Aubrey sobbed.
"Listen to yourself!" Jesse exclaimed, clenching his fists.
"Do you want to stop fucking shouting at me?!" Aubrey stood up and yelled at the top of her lungs. Jesse's eyes widened at the tone of voice he had never heard his girlfriend use before.
"How do you expect me to not shout at you if the most stupid things are coming out your mouth?!" He yelled back, taking a step towards her but Aubrey didn't back down, she never does. "I've been there for you for all these months and suddenly you don't want me to help?! Fine then, Aubrey if that's what you want then I'll just leave right now!" Although he didn't move at all, he continued to look down at Aubrey's eyes that were burning into his. Fresh tears were rapidly welling up in Aubrey's eyes as she bit her bottom lip hard, she pushed Jesse hard with her hands causing him to stumble backwards as she stormed off through the hall to the bathroom.
"GO FUCK YOURSELF, JESSE!" She screamed, slamming the bathroom door before locking it. She turned around and leaned against the door, slowly sliding down until she hit the floor. Aubrey covered her face with her hands and cried uncontrollably, what had she done? She had screwed things up big time with Jesse and it was all her dad's fault.
Aubrey gasped and leant forward, grabbing her stomach as a sharp pain shot straight through her lower abdomen. Her heart stopped, scared out of her mind, she started to panic, letting out a pained cry as another pain shot through her. If she wasn't carrying her daughter, Aubrey would've endured the pain herself but since it was her own daughter, she needed help. The worst things were flying through her head and she started question if she would actually get to meet Ellie. Aubrey used the sink to drag herself to her feet, doubling over in pain as more pain hit her like a bus. She managed to swing the bathroom door open and stumble out and screamed out as the most terrifying pain she had ever felt in her life shot through her, she lifted her head and saw Jesse standing at the end of the hall, wide eyed.
"Jess-" She said helplessly, sweat accumulating on her brow at a wild rate. The room started spinning and she pressed her hand to her forehead.
"Aubrey!" Jesse exclaimed, sprinting towards her and steadying her before she could fall. Her eyelids were heavy, but she wasn't going to let them fall shut, she was too scared. "What's wrong?!"
"I think…t-there's something wrong w-with her" Jesse had to support the whole weight of his girlfriend.
"No, Aubrey there's nothing wrong with her!" Jesse assured, placing his hand on her stomach. "You're gonna be alright, but you're going to have to go to hospital" He supported her as he helped her down the hall.
"If anything's wrong it's my fault" She sobbed before doubling over in pain again. "I didn't want to happen in the first place when I first found out"
"Stop" Jesse said sternly "Nothing is wrong with our daughter, we just need a professional to tell us so."
