Thank you to the guest reviewer, Lily and MirrorSparkles1234 for the ideas :)
Tuesday, 5am
Mo woke up and groggily sat up. She looked over to the double bed to see that Jac wasn't there, it was only Jonny who appeared to be fully asleep. Mo got out of bed and saw something white and rectangular on Jac's bedside cabinet. It was an empty packet of painkillers.
Mo checked the bathroom, no sign of her. Then she poked her head round the living room and saw that Jac was sitting on the sofa with her knees up to her chest, she only had her pyjamas and two jumpers on so Mo grabbed a double blanket off of the floor, which had obviously fallen off in the night, and walked into the living room.
Luckily, she wasn't sat on the sofa that her and Jonny had made love yesterday so Mo sat next to Jac, wrapped the blanket around the two of them and she slipped her arm around Jac's shoulders.
"You're freezing." Mo stated and Jac made no response because Mo was stating the obvious.
"Have you not got any more painkillers?" She asked and Jac shook her head.
"Come here." Mo said as she pulled Jac closer to her. Oddly, Jac let her head rest on Mo's shoulder and she put her arm around Mo's back.
"Jac... I know this is not something you want to hear now but... please please don't push Jonny away, he loves you and as much as I know he pretty much always says the wrong thing, just please let him in; don't shut him out. Don't deny the fact that you need Jonny. Pregnancy isn't easy Jac, neither is raising a baby. I'm not saying you can't do it alone, I'm just saying that you don't have to do it alone. Please, promise me you'll let him be a father as much as you will be a mother, I don't think he could live with himself knowing that he has a baby and he couldn't see it." Mo said softly. After a few moments, Jac began to speak.
"I promise... I would never stop Jonny from being a father. It's all he's ever wanted." Jac murmured through her pain.
"He's also always wanted a wife..." Mo said cheekily.
"That's not going to happen any time soon, and it probably never will."
"What, you don't want to get married?"
"I'm not saying that it's just... I don't think Jonny would want to marry me. I'm a stroppy cow and we're in a complicated relationship where he's scared to say anything because he thinks I'll snap at him, and to be honest most of the time I do." Jac whispered.
"Well then change that Jac. It's never too late to change. Besides, most of it is hormones. Jac, tell Jonny that you want you and him to start all over again."
"I can't."
"Why? Jac he loves you, he really does. He'd take a bullet for you Jac. I've gathered that you have trust issues, but believe me, Jonny will never leave you. He's not that sort of person." Mo explained. She was about to continue when Jac groaned in pain. Mo gently rubbed Jac's back, she had seen Jonny massage her stomach but she thought that that would be taking it too far.
Jac had her eyes closed tightly and her fists clenched, she was trying to force the pain away, but because she closed her eyes, she didn't see the several flashes of lightening that came through the flimsy curtains, but Mo did.
Mo suddenly thought, quick what could she do to calm her? But it was too late. The thunder rumbled.
Jac stood up off of the sofa, she wanted to hug someone, preferably Jonny, but he was sleeping. She didn't want to hug Mo, well she did sort of.
Mo stood up and hugged Jac. Jac thought it in her head that if Mo hugged her first it was okay so Jac hugged back tightly.
"It's alright, it's not going to hurt you."
"Tell that to someone who is dead because they got struck by lightening." Jac mumbled over Mo's shoulder. Jac made Mo laugh a little.
Another pain in her stomach hit Jac like a tonne of bricks. Jac let go of Mo and dropped to her knees. She hugged her stomach tightly and hung her head in shame.
"You could always do what you and Jonny did on that sofa yesterday, that could help with the pain." Mo said cheekily.
"What!?" Jac forced out through her deep breathing.
"I saw your face Jac, you were horny." Mo said calmly. Jac went bright red.
"No I wasn't! Jonny came on to me." Jac said defensively as the pain subsided.
"Yeah, I bet he came in you as well." She joked. Jac looked down at the floor and pretended to ignore her. "Oh god, he did didn't he? Oh god, I am never ever going to get that image out of my head now thank you Jac." Mo said as she face palmed and sat down on the sofa.
"Well you knew he'd done it before any way." Jac stated.
"Did I?"
"I'm pregnant Mo, it doesn't take a genius."
"Oh yeah, when you and Jonny were grieving. Honestly, it's just wrong."
"What? we needed cheering up." Jac joked as she got up slowly and slipped back onto the sofa.
"You're so hormonal you know that?" Mo said.
"No I'm not, I haven't cried. Not today anyway." Jac said as she brought her knees up to her chest.
"Yet... I bet you can't go the whole of today without crying."
"Fine. But it doesn't count if its because of pain."
"Yes it does."
"Well then I'm not doing it because your terms are unfair." Jac said as she looked the other way with her head held up in the air.
"Good morning." Elliot said sleepily as he walked into the main room and sat down on the sofa. Jac and Mo exchanged looks and Jac went slightly red, Mo however, burst out laughing.
"What's so funny?" Elliot asked curiously.
"Jac and Jonny-"
"Are having a baby, yes that's so funny isn't it Mo." Jac interrupted, trying to prevent Mo from blurting out that the sofa that Elliot was sitting on was the one her and Jonny had sex on yesterday.
"Right." Elliot said awkwardly, he knew they were hiding something. "How're you feeling Jac? Still cold?" He asked as he nodded to the blanket that was semi wrapped around her.
"Um, I was alright last night. But I'm a bit cold now." Jac said as she ran her hands along her cold arms.
"Go and get back into bed, it's only half five Jac." Mo said as she nudged her shoulder.
"No. I got up because I couldn't sleep." Jac said, she was trying to hint towards Mo that it was because of her abdominal pain but she couldn't say it out loud because she didn't think that Elliot knew about her endometriosis. However, she didn't know that Jonny had told him.
"Why?" Elliot asked kindly.
"I um- I...I'm just not tired." She lied.
"Listen Jac... Jonny told me about..." Elliot stopped there because he didn't know if Mo knew or not and this was obviously something that Jac wanted to keep secret.
"About?" Jac asked sternly as she raised her eyebrow.
"Never mind, it- it doesn't matter." Elliot stuttered.
"No, what did he say?" Jac demanded.
Elliot got up and whispered "endometriosis" in her ear.
"Did he now?" Jac asked angrily as she got up. She went to walk into the bedroom.
"Jac." Mo said sternly as she tried to chase after her. She had guessed what Elliot had said to her correctly.
Jonny was lying peacefully asleep on his side in the middle of the double bed. Jac sat in front of his stomach and faced the edge of the bed so when Mo came in Jac was just sitting there upright, feigning innocence.
"Jac, what are you doing?" Mo whispered.
"Just sitting here. By the way, I sometimes have this spasm in my elbow. Oops, there it goes again." Jac said sweetly as she elbowed him swiftly in the balls.
"Aaahh, oh my f- Jac? What was that for?" Jonny groaned in pain. He curled up in a ball and put both of his hands over his manhood.
"You told Elliot." Jac stated as she stood up off of the bed and turned to face him, Elliot and Mo were standing behind her.
"I told Elliot what?" Jonny croaked, his voice had been affected by his injury, he was still slightly groggy because he had only just woken up.
"You know what." Jac said sternly, she hated actually saying that she had 'it.'
"No I don't, enlighten me." Jonny mumbled his eyes were tearing up.
"And you said I was the emotional one." Jac said sarcastically to Mo. "You told him about- aahh." Jac suddenly collapsed on to her knees next to the bed.
"Jac?" Elliot said as said as he knelt behind her. Despite his pain, Jonny cared more for Jac and his baby so he lifted his head up and looked down at her from the bed.
"I'm fine." Jac said, her words were forced out under her breath.
"Have you taken your painkillers?" Jonny asked kindly, despite what she had just done. He now realised what he had told Elliot.
"She's ran out." Mo said cautiously.
"When?" Jonny asked.
"I dunno but the pain started this morning I think." Mo said.
"I told you to wake me up." Jonny stated harshly.
"I just did." Jac snapped as she slowly stood up.
"Right here's a plan. You go there." Mo said as she pulled Jonny back onto his side of the bed.
"And you," Mo began as she pushed Jac around the other side of the bed and then she helped, much to Jac's annoyance, her get into bed.
"Go there, now both of you kiss, make up and sleep." Mo finished as she and Elliot walked out of the bedroom and closed the door behind them. It was fairly dark in the bedroom because it wasn't even 6am yet and it was December.
"Right, I'm sorry I snapped at you just now, and I'm sorry that I told Elliot. I only told him because he asked. He knew something was wrong with you because he knew about that time in theatre, and he's seen how many painkillers you go through." Jonny said softly.
"I'm not sorry I hit you in the balls." Jac stated.
"It's fine, I have balls of steel." Jonny joked quietly.
"No. you have tiny gonads." Jac stated.
"No I don't!" Jonny protested.
"Prove it." Jac said seductivley and she chucked the duvet off of them and climbed on top of him.
"Jac. You're pregnant, the only reason you're doing this is because of your hormones." Jonny stated, he was thinking that she might regret this later.
"So?" Jac remarked.
"Are you sure this is what you want?" Jonny asked quietly with Jac's face just inches away from his. Jac's reply, didn't consist of words, it consisted of a passionate kiss which he also replied to. They both kissed passionately for several minutes before Jac pulled away.
"Wait, wait wait." Jac said as she jumped off of the bed.
"What, are you okay?"
"Im Fine I just need a wee." Jac laughed as she walked into the bathroom.
A few minutes later, Jac returned and jumped, fully clothed, back on top of Jonny.
"You do realise that I'm about to have sex with my boss, whilst your boss and my best friend are in the room next door right?"
"It didn't stop you yesterday." Jac stated.
"Fair enough, just keep quiet." Jonny winked. Jac smirked and began kissing him again. Jonny was about to pull one of Jac's jumpers off but she stopped him.
"We're staying clothed. Just in case they come in." She stated in between kissing him.
"How are we supposed to-"
"You have a fly zip and I can pull my leggings down a bit."
"That's fine with me. " Jonny whispered as he undone his flies with Jac on top of him.
