Ch. 7 – You can leave now….that's not a request

I walked through the front door and that's when I saw him. He was tall and kind of chubby. He had brown hair that was in need of a haircut. I had never seen or met him yet I knew exactly who he was.

He turned towards me and his mouth dropped open. He walked towards me and wrapped his arms around me.

"You're so big!" He said.

I pushed him off of me and started yelling at him out of control.

"What the hell makes you think you can just come into MY house after 15 years? I didn't reply to your email for a reason. I don't want you here. And I won't lie I have thought about meeting you but then I came to the conclusion that you gave me and my mom away like trash and anyone who does that isn't worth my time. You can leave now." I said as I opened the front door.

"But Macy just let me explain."

"Excuse me, that wasn't a request."

His head hung low and he walked out the door. Once he was gone my mother jumped up and embraced me.

"I am so proud of you Macy. I know that wasn't easy for you because it was hard for me to."

"Mom, w-w-why did he leave us?" I managed to choke out before the tears started to flood. "Was I not good enough for him?"

"No, he just wasn't ready for the responsibility of a child. You're the most wonderful person; you will always be TOO good for everyone."

I sat on the couch as thoughts raced through my head. Aaron came in. He knew better to say anything. He just sat down and wrapped his arms around me. I slowly fell asleep in Aaron's arms.

6 months later:

How did I get here? I asked my self as I sat in a hospital waiting room. I looked at the clock and realized it was 3am. I also came to reality that Clarissa had been in labor for 2 hours. I got into the elevator and made my way to her room. She was sitting up in her bed which was an improvement since the last time I had seen her.

"How are you feeling?" I asked.

"Better now that I have that epidural medicine or what ever they gave me. Is Nick here?"

"Um, I tried calling him but he didn't answer. But don't worry he wouldn't miss this for the world, also your mom, my mom, Megan, and Aaron are downstairs sleeping."

"Okay. Macy I'm scared." She said in a worried tone.

"Why?"

"Hello I'm about to push two human beings out of me. What if something happens or something goes wrong?"

"Don't worry about it. You're here and there's nothing we can do about it. We just have to hope for the best and go with the flow."

"Okay."

Little did I know that I would soon be a god mother. Nick broke my concentration when he came in. He walked to Clarissa and kissed her forehead. I left the room so that they could be alone. After all Nick was about to be a daddy. I gently closed the door as I exited and I ran into Aaron, literally. He laughed and kissed me.

We went back down stairs to the waiting room with everyone else. We talked about what names we thought Clarissa would pick. Everyone had come up with great names but Clarissa wanted to surprise everyone with the names so she kept them a secret. That's when Nick called my phone and told me it was time. I rushed up stairs. As I went up I thought how far we had come. I had only been 9 months since all this had started but it felt like it was just yesterday. I entered the room and that's when it all happened.

I rushed to Clarissa's side. (The one Nick wasn't at.) And I decided I would take the chance of letting her break my hand. Within the next 20 min I heard the new born screams of Isabella Tayler and Nicholas Adam.
