Here's the next chapter…what can I say life keeps me busy but thanks for the reviews. I love reading them.
Derwin raced into the hospital. Jason was hot on his heels. Derwin slammed his hands on the reception desk. "I'm looking for a Melanie Davis", he asked with wild eyes. The whole ride he kept running through all types of scenarios on what happened. He should have been three that's what should have happened. And the nurse was making him made typing in the information slow.
Jason huffed and looked away when his eyes noticed his ex wife with her hands in her head. "Yo dude", he told Derwin tapping him on the shoulder. "There's Kelly", he stated and the younger man nodded. The two went over there and Kelly immediately hugged Derwin.
"She's in there sleeping…they wouldn't tell me anything, I'm sorry Derwin", she stated letting go of him.
Derwin nodded too tense to do anything but. He hesitated before entering the room not sure on what he would find.
Jason on the other hand was staring at Kelly trying to make sure there was nothing wrong with her. "You okay Kelly, what happened", asked Jason still checking her over. He spotted something red on her arm and grabbed it without thinking. "What's this…Kels you need a doctor…DOCTOR", he yelled.
A nurse came over as quick as possible. "What seems to be the problem sir", she asked.
Jason was furious and Kelly was trying to calm him but nothing was working. "My wife has a cut on her arm, she's bleeding…she needs stitches", he told the nurse angrily.
Kelly heart melted at his concern and the nurse smiled amused. Jason however was not amused. "Do you know who I am…I'm Jason Pitts…I brought San Diego a champion…you have no idea what kind of power I have", he boasted.
Kelly shooed away the nurse and yelled at her ex husband. "Jason, its ketchup….".
Jason looked embarrassed. "Well Kelly could you have started off your damn 'I'm a woman' speech with that. I mean what the hell Kelly, I was really", he trailed off looking at her.
She smiled and grabbed his hand in hers. "I know", she whispered.
Derwin sat on the edge of the bed staring at his wife. She didn't look pregnant and she didn't look hurt. He gulped and moved the hair out of her face. His girl looked like she was sleeping. He bent down to kiss her forehead and she groaned.
"Derwin", she asked groggily.
He clasped his hands around hers. "Yea baby I'm here", he replied firmly.
"What are you doing here", she asked.
He straight faced her. "Gee, my wife is in the hospital Mel", he snapped. He then softened his voice. "How are you feeling", he asked soothingly.
Melanie snatched her hand away from him and placed it on her stomach. "Can you call the doctor….I-well…just go get the doctor". She was panicking. What if she lost her...their baby? Maybe this was her punishment from having that abortion all those years ago.
"There's no need. You have two worried friends in the hall. My name is Dr. …."
"Omg Mchottie", she breathed.
"Nice seeing you again Melanie…and you must be", he asked.
Derwin frowned. "Her very pissed off husband, now doctor can you tell us what's wrong with my wife and if our child is okay", he asked glaring at Melanie.
Melanie eyes widened.
"I found your pregnancy tests babe but we'll discuss that later", Derwin stated keeping his eyes on Mel's ex. Mel could learn the real details on how he foun out later.
She nodded; this was not how she wanted him to find out.
"Well there was a slight tear in your uterus. Have you been under any stress lately? Well it seems your blood pressure and sugar was extremely high and that caused you to faint, also with the tear that caused the bleeding. To be frank, your very lucky but if you want positive results and carry this baby to term you need to stay off your feet for six weeks and no stress", he ordered. He then asked a few questions concerning her well being and left.
The couple didn't have any time alone because Jason and Kelly popped in.
Kelly gave Melanie a funny look noticing the doctor. "So is everything okay", she asked. "And by everything I do mean everything", Kelly asked arching her eyebrow.
Melanie gave a weak smile. "He knows Kels…you can go home I'm fine…the baby is fine", she yawned.
"Okay I'm relieved….you better take care of her mister and I'm gonna call a cab home so you can take my car Derwin…Melanie knows where it is", she stated. She then walked up to Melanie and whispered, "Don't be like me".
Later that evening Kelly was nervous sitting in Jason's car. He offered to escort her home. She was really surprised because the old Jason would have made her walk. "thanks again Jason", she asked timidly trying to not blurt out that their son looked more like him every day or the fact that she was madly in love with him.
"Hey no problem, but what do you say to taking Brittany this weekend….she really missed you", he told her.
"Are you serious", she asked.
He shrugged keeping his eyes on the road. "Are you feeling better…when you left you said you needed time to clear your head and get your life together….when you called me today…I don't know Kels", he shrugged frowning at the red light. Jason felt a hand on his knee and he gave her a grateful smile. She always knew when he needed to calm down.
"I know, I'm sorry I scared you and I'm sorry I didn't know who else to call", she replied. Kelly tried to remove her hand but Jason caught it and pulled it up to his mouth.
He kissed it and just held it near him while he drove with the other. "Don't be sorry, I made a promise that I'll always be there for you…that haven't change".
She sighed tiredly and rolled her eyes. "So much has", she whispered. Kelly frowned as the car pulled over. "Um, Jason…are we lost, do you need to plug in GPS?"
Jason reached over and kissed her. She tasted like strawberries and as he put his tongue in her mouth she tasted like home. He didn't know how she ended up in his seat but he wasn't complaining. He missed her and he missed their awesome wild crazy sex.
She moaned getting lost in the kiss and started to unbutton his pants when she felt his strong hand underneath her shirt reaching for her breast. Regardless of the consequences this felt right. "I missed you", she confessed nibbling on his ear.
Jason knew it was wrong but when it came to sex with Kelly he could never tell her no and he knew that was because with her it was more than sex. It took everything in him to still her hands from going further. "We can't do this Kelly", he stated and winced when she froze and started to pull away. "I respect you too much to bang you in my car after all the shit we've been through", he said.
Kelly inadvertently rocked her hips with his as she tried to straighten herself and get off of her ex. They both moaned at the friction. "Let me go", she begged. She was belittling herself for not stopping sooner. He was married for god sakes. She climbed into her seat and GPS the coordinates to her place and turned her head to stare out the window. She couldn't help the tears that fell.
Jason sighed when he realized that she was crying. "Look Kels I", he started to say.
Kelly shook her head. "Just drive", she replied. She felt like her heart was breaking all over again.
Jason went over his options. He could A continue where they left off thirty seconds ago but he knew she would feel even worst. Then there was option B, he could get a hotel room and convince her to stay the night. It was slightly less trashy. Of course there was always C, take her home and go home to his legal wife but he knew this could be the only way to get Kelly back. He casually looked over to see that she had her eyes closed and saw that they were about a good thirty minutes away from her house. He hurriedly pushed in the nearest hotel and was lucky when it was only ten minutes away. Jason checked his phone and noticed he had five missed calls. One was Tasha and the others were Chardonnay. The time read 1:30 am. He sent Char a text telling her that he was crashing at a hotel because Derwin wanted to stay at the hospital overnight and he would see her later.
When they pulled up Kelly was actually sleeping. He kissed her softly and parked to go get a room. Jason returned to find that she was still sleeping. He smiled and carefully picked her up. She stirred briefly. "Jason", she asked.
He smiled down at her. "I got you Kels", he told her kissing her forehead. Even if they didn't make love and he just held her all night long he would be a happy man. Derwin and Melanie made him realize something tonight. Life was precious and too short. Whatever issues they had he was willing to fix them.
Kelly awoke at the sound of the ding. "Jason where are we", she asked looking up at him but only seeing his strong powerful jaw line. She looked around and noticed she was at a hotel….with her ex. "I would have preferred the car", she snapped telling him without words to release her.
He gave a deep husky laugh. "You would", he agreed. "But it's late…while you were sleeping I got lost and sleep sounds lovely. " He looked down at her as they reached their room. "We don't have to do anything Kelly, I just want to keep holding you", he told her earnestly.
Kelly looked at him detecting any lies in his story and she caught a few but it was little white ones, the rest were genuine. They entered the room while she pondered her next move. He carefully laid her on the bed but her hands around his neck stopped him from coming back up. "That'll be a waste", she breathed seductively and pulled him down to her.
Derwin watched Mel sleep. He knew they had a lot to talk about but the really important stuff was out of the way. They put a heart monitor up for their baby. he smiled at the thought an placed his hands on her stomach. Their child was okay and so was she. "I'll make it right boo, I promise", he told her. He didn't know how many hours he stayed awake making sure nothing changed in their sleep.
