And here is the next one peeps. Do enjoy and let me know what you think!
~Chapter Twenty-Seven~
~Kendall's POV~
"Why couldn't we have done this at home?"
"You're the one that set the appointment, not me." Jade rolled her eyes at me.
"You're no help."
"Are you gonna have performance anxiety?"
I just covered my face with my hands. Thankfully we were the only ones in the waiting room.
"Dammit Jade."
"What?" She looked up at me all innocent.
"You know what." I rolled my eyes. "God I just want to get this over with."
"We can go in the bathroom and I can get you off in five minutes."
"You live to embarrass me don't you?"
"I have no idea what you're even talking about Love."
"I'm sure you don't." I rolled my eyes again.
Jade was enjoying this a little too much. She had been teasing me all morning; it was really starting to annoy me. I don't know why she's finding this so funny.
"Kendall Schmidt?" a nurse called out.
"Want me to go with you?"
"No, I'm good." I stood up and walked over to the nurse.
I was so nervous and I had no idea why. This was a simple doctor's appointment, okay maybe not so normal. I really didn't want to explain to my doctor why I was doing this, but it really had to be done so Jade and I could move on to the next step of getting pregnant.
God should it really be that embarrassing? It's even more so because my doctor just happened to be a fat old man, with a southern accent so think it was hard to understand him.
"Good afternoon Kendall." Dr. Scharpe came into the room shutting the door behind him. "What can I do for you?"
"Uh, we'll my wife and I want to have a baby, but she can't carry so we found a surrogate."
"And now you need to collect you end right?"
"Right, something like that."
"Well then, will your wife be joining you?"
"No."
"Okay then, I will be back with a sample cup and some magazines for you."
"Uh, thanks." He just nodded and walked out of the room.
I pulled my phone out of my pocket and texted Jade.
"Not causing trouble are you?"
"Who me?"
"Yes you."
"Just showing off our honeymoon pics, that's all. How are you doing?"
"I'm fine."
"You sure? I can come help you out if you want."
"It will give me practice for the tour."
"Hehe yes it will."
"I can't believe you're not coming with me this time."
"Stop pouting Baby Boy, it will be okay, I promise."
"Why can Alexa come and you can't?"
"Because she's on break and I have to work."
"I don't like it."
"I know you don't, I don't either. But I have to work."
"You really don't have to, I can take care of you."
"Kendall, we've talked about this."
"I know, I just hate that you feel that way."
"I can't help it, I've been taking care of myself and Cassie since I was 15. And when I left Todd, I promised I'd never rely on a man to provide for me."
"I love that you're so independent."
"I love that you let me be so independent."
"Love you."
"Love you too."
"I have to go the docs back."
"Have fun, and think of me."
I just shook my head and shoved my phone back in my pocket.
"You can either stay in here, or you can use the bathroom."
"The bathroom is fine."
"It's across the hall."
I nodded and took the stuff he handed out for me.
When I was in the safety of the bathroom, with the door shut and locked, I started freaking out. I looked at the magazine he had brought and tossed it on the floor, since I've with Jade, no one but her can make my body respond. Damnit, I was going to need her help.
~Jade's POV~
"Jade Schmidt?" A nurse called out.
I stood up and walked over to her.
"Yes?"
"Your husband is asking for you."
"Okay."
"This way."
I hid my smile as I followed her back to where Kendall was. She left me standing in front of the bathroom. I knocked on the door.
"Kendoll, Baby it's me."
He didn't say anything he just opened the door and let me in. Once I was in, he shut and locked the door again.
"What's wrong?"
"I need help." He held his head high.
"Okay." I set my purse in the sink and then laid my jacket on top of it. "What do you need me to do?"
"You're not going to make fun of me?"
"No, I can see how stressed you already are." I cupped his face. "If you want I can make fun of you later for it okay?"
"That's my girl." He pulled me to him and kissed me.
I pulled away and laughed.
"What do you need me to do?"
"Give me a hand."
"I can do that." I hooked my fingers in his belt loops and grinned at him.
I cupped him through his jeans, making him groan. I grinned and kissed him again, while still rubbing him through his jeans.
This was gonna be fun.
After we were done at the doctor's I drop Kendall off at rehearsals, before I headed over to Kathy's to pick Gracie up. We were going to do some shopping for the tour, not that she knows that.
"Mommy, you're here." Gracie hugged me around the legs.
"Yes, I am." I laughed as she let me go.
"Where's Daddy?"
"At work, where's Grandma?"
"In the office."
"Okay, you finish your lunch while I got talk to her."
"Mmmkay Mommy." She sat back down on the floor.
I laughed and headed to the office. I knocked on the door and Kathy smiled as she looked up at me. She waved me in, since she was on the phone. I looked around at the pictures of the boys, God they have all really grown up throughout the years.
"They've changed a lot, haven't they?"
"Yes, they have. God they look so young here."
"That was the first day of filming." She smiled at me. "What can I do for you?"
"I have a huge favor to ask of you."
"Anything, you know that."
"Kendall and I, well we're gonna try and have a baby." Her mouth just dropped open. "We've decide to move the surrogate into the pool house, but since I'm going on tour with the guys, there will be no one there to help her and I was wondering if she could stay here with you while we're gone."
"Yes, oh my wow."
"And can you not tell Kendall? He doesn't know that I'm going on tour."
"He doesn't?"
"No, I agreed to go when we were still apart."
"Sure, no problem."
"Thank you Kathy."
"No problem, but don't you think you should tell Kendall you're going on tour?"
"I've thought about it, but I want to surprise them."
She just nodded. "So when can I except her to move in?"
"I haven't set anything I wanted to talk to you first. I didn't want to assume anything."
"Well anytime will work for me."
"Thank you Kathy, this really means a lot to me." She smiled at me, but I could tell I didn't reach her eyes, like it usually dose. "Is there something wrong?"
"No, why would you think that?"
"You just don't seem happy about this."
"I'm just worried, that's all."
"It was his idea, he's the one that started this ball rolling. I'm not saying I don't want this, because I do, but I always thought we'd slow down some first. He wants this, so who I am to say no."
"If you two think you're ready for it, then I'm happy for you guys." She grinned at me. "I can't wait for more babies to spoil."
"I wouldn't it any other way. So do you wanna play hookie and come shopping with Gracie and I?"
"Yes, I'm so done doing paper work." She laughed and stood up.
"Let's go collect Gracie and we will go."
As soon as we got into the car and were headed towards the mall, my phone rang. It was Ted calling.
"Hey Ted, what can I do for you?"
"I need you to stop by Ryan's practice and sign some more papers."
"When?"
"Now, if you can."
"Yeah, no problem." I sighed.
"Thank you Jade."
"No problem."
"Call me if you have any problems."
"Will do, talk to you later Ted."
"Bye Jade." I hung up and looked at Kathy.
"We have to make a pit stop to Ryan's practice."
"Who's Ryan?"
"The boy's open act."
"Oh I can't wait to meet her."
"I can't stand her." I rolled my eyes. "She's a spoiled little brat that thinks she can have whatever she wants."
"What Mommy means, is that Ryan want's Daddy."
"Oh really?"
"Yup."
"Oh this should be fun." Kathy laughed.
"I guess so."
A half an hour later we were pulling into the parking lot of the practice hall where Ryan was.
I really didn't want to be here, I didn't want to be dealing with Ryan, I just wanted to be at the mall with Kathy and Gracie. That would be so much better than being here.
"Jade what are you doing here?"
"Ted called and said Alex has some paper for me to sign."
"He's over there." She waved over to the other side of the room. "So who's this?"
"My mother in law and my daughter Gracie."
"You're Kendall's Mom."
"Yes I am." Kathy smiled at Ryan.
"You're married to Kendall?"
"Yes, yes I am." Her mouth dropped open. "Now that's cleared up, I'm gonna go see your brother."
I walked away from her and over to Alex, I could feel her watching me the whole time.
"Hey Jade."
"What's up Alex? Ted said you had some papers for me to sign?"
"Yeah, hold a second." He shuffled some papers around until he found the right folder. "Here ya go. It's pretty much everything we talked about."
I took the folder from him and skimmed through the papers, before I signed them.
"You look good, very tan."
"Yeah, I just got back from Greece a few days ago." I handed him back the folder. "Is there anything else?"
"We're just trying to finalize the set list, we haven't figured it out yet."
"You can just email it to me when you have it done." I smiled at him.
"Awesome. I can also email you the dates I will be on tour."
"You're not going to be there the whole time?"
"I wish, but I have some stuff back home I have to take care of."
"Okay, we can work it all out. Just email me everything."
"Sounds good, ugh, I need to get her back to work." I looked behind me where Ryan was still talking to Kathy and Gracie.
"Yeah I need to get out of here too."
We both walked over to where everyone else was. After I introduced Alex to Kathy, we headed out.
"I really don't like her Mommy." Gracie announced as soon as we were in the car. "She's mean."
"Gracie is right, there is something off about that girl."
"I know, but there's nothing we can really do about it now. It's a little too late." I sighed. "God how I wish I could change it, but Ted said I can't."
"I'm sorry Jade, but if anyone can put her in her place, you can." Kathy patted my knee.
"Thanks that means a lot. So who is ready from some shopping?"
Once we got to the mall, we all just put Ryan behind us. We had a really good time at the mall. Even when we ran into a group of fans that sneered at me every time they would see me. I really didn't let it bother me. It was bound to happen sooner or later.
By time I got home I was tired, but it was a good tired. Gracie had decided she wanted to stay with Grandma tonight, so it was just Kendall and I. Which I was really looking forward to.
I found Kendall out by the pool. He just had his feet in looking up at the sky.
"Hey Baby." I sat next to him.
"Hey Love, how was the rest of your day?"
"Good, I went shopping with your Mom."
"Really?"
"Mmmhmm, it was fun."
"I'm shocked you got her away from work."
"She works to much." I shrugged and leaned into him.
"So what did you buy?"
"I got some stuff for you for tour and then I got some new clothes for Gracie."
"No sexy stuff for you?"
"Hell no, not when shopping with your Mom and our daughter."
"Right, good point." He laughed and laced our fingers together. "Where is Gracie Lou?"
"Wanted to spend the night with Kathy."
"Oh really, so we have the house to ourselves?"
"Yup, what are you thinking?"
"We go up stair and get naked and have some adult fun. And I can pay you back for this morning."
"Looking forward to it, Love, looking forward to it." I stood up and held my hand up to Kendall. He grabbed my hand and I helped him up.
He sat down on a pool chair and dried his feet off before we headed inside.
Before we could head up stairs, the doorbell went off. Kendall and I just looked at each other confused before I opened the door to see to police officers standing on the other side.
"We're looking for Jade Mitchell."
"That's me, what can I do for you Officer?"
"May we come in?"
"Sure, come on in." I moved out of the way and let them in.
We moved into the living room and Kendall and I sat on the love seat, while the officers took the couch.
"Is there something wrong?" I clutched Kendall's hand.
"Do you know a Clara Evens?"
"She's my mother, why?"
"She was involved in a bad car crash earlier this afternoon."
"Okay." They just looked at me weird. "Guys, I haven't had much contact with my mother. I've seen her maybe three times in the last five years. I don't know what you want from me."
"She is in a lot of trouble."
"I would hope so."
"What we would like to know is where she got the money."
"What money?"
"She had a large amount of money on her."
"I my sister or I haven't given her any money; I don't know anyone who would." I sighed and ran my fingers through my hair. "I wish I could be of more help, but I really don't know anything."
"If you can think of anything, let us know." One of them handed me a business card.
"Sure, no problem."
"I will show them out, why don't you head up stairs?" I nodded as we all stood up.
I let go of Kendall's hand and headed ups stairs.
This is all I needed right now. Fuck Bitch always messing everything up when things were going so good.
