Deeper than a cut
Chapter 6
Jeanette came home a little later than normal as she was trying to shake off what happened earlier that day at lunch "Ellie? I was wondering if you could do me a massive favour"? Jeanette asked as she dragged Eleanor away from Brittany and into the kitchen "sure, what is it"? Eleanor asked "well I was wondering if you could call Simon and ask him to come around here and also when he gets here could you take Brittany out shopping or something"? Jeanette enquired "ummm ok then" Eleanor agreed, a little confused. After Eleanor had rung Simon and relayed Jeanette's message, she and Brittany left for the mall, this left Jeanette alone to wait for Simon, 10 minutes later Jeanette opened the door for Simon "hi hun" he said leaning in for a kiss "Jeanie? What's up"? he asked as she pulled away "why did you tell Jillian about us going to be parents"? she asked, after a few minutes of silence, Simon began to sob "because I needed somebody to talk to" he cried "well why not talk to Alvin, Theodore or Dave" she said "because they wouldn't understand" he told her "ok then, why not come to me"? she enquired "I-I c-couldn't" he sobbed "what do you mean"? she asked "I didn't want to worry you more than you were already" he explained "I love you to much to want you to worry about me" he continued "Simon I'm always going to worry about you…but this has totally destroyed my trust in you so I want you to give me one reason why I shouldn't leave you" she told him "because I need you…and I love you" he cried, Jeanette stood there for a second before running into his arms and giving him a kiss that told him she needed him and loved him too.
They then went on to talk about their plans about what to do with the baby "well whatever we decide to do…you will always have my full support" Simon told Jeanette after they decided they still did not know what to do with regards to their unborn baby.
