I should be doing Uni work but I'm evidently doing this instead! Ah that's why there aren't very frequent updates at the moment

Enjoy x

Ana had picked Jess up from her appointment with John and had noticed that her daughter was very quiet once again, looking pensively out of the window.

'J, how was the photo-shoot with Jose?'

She looked up, almost startled from her thoughts 'uh, yeah. Yeah it was really good, I loved it to be honest'

Ana saw that Jess's eyes had brightened up and smiled 'he called and said you seemed to really enjoy it. Your Dad seemed thrilled you were showing an interest in something, picked his mood right back up'

Jess smiled 'Yeah, I really enjoyed myself, much more than I thought I would. Fascinating to be honest'

Ana smiled, turning into the Escala car park 'good, well Jose said he thought you should consider looking into it yourself'

When Jess came back up to Escala Ana had to take a phone call and Jess made her way into the Main room, where Harry had only returned with Sawyer minutes before from playschool

'Mummy! Gampa said he got you a peasant!'

Jess frowned and then laughed 'present? It's present Harry'

Sawyer laughed and Jess picked Harry up, walking into her bedroom with him on her hip, seeing a scattering of wrapped packages on the large bed. She placed Harry down on the bed and opened the largest of the boxes, seeing that it was a brand new, state of the art camera.

Amazed, Jess began to unwrap the other parcels and packages, seeing memory cards, cables, scope filters, coloured filters and different lenses.

Harry was more interested in ripping up the wrapping paper as Jess put the memory card in the camera and started it, watching the screen come to life with a multitude of readings and numbers.

She snapped a few pictures of Harry and flicked through the lenses before putting one on and taking more pictures of her son, the little boy laughing as she did.

After a few minutes Jess saw Christian appear at her door, smiling widely 'I see you found it all then?'

She looked up with a grin that she couldn't supress 'Thank you! This is- this is amazing'

He waved a hand, dismissing the comment 'anything I can do to help'

When Christian left Luke appeared in the doorway, leaning against the doorframe 'you left your phone in the main room, Caleb called again'

Jess twisted her mouth slightly and Luke handed her the phone 'I assume you haven't told him? Or Christian?'

Luke was one of the very few people who knew what was going on with Jess, as she had told both him and John only. Luke was incredibly protective of Jess and despite the fact he worked for Christian meant nothing, he had promised Jess that he wouldn't tell Christian, Ana, or anyone else- and he had kept his word.

'No… no, but I need to don't I?'.

Luke half nodded.

Caleb had left a voicemail on her phone and Jess listened to it later after she had put Harry into bed and she had curled up under her own sheets.

A few minutes later Jess called Caleb, her voice quiet 'Hi…it's me'

'I've got caller ID Jess, I know… I didn't expect you to call me back'

'I know… I need to talk to you about something… please?'

'I have to be somewhere at 10, I can see you before then? I'll drive to yours?'

'I… not in the apartment… come to the car park and I'll meet you in there?'

There was a brief pause 'Okay, I'll call you when I'm leaving mine… Sleep well'

The call ended and Jess lay back in her bed, staring at the wall. She had to tell Caleb, it was only fair really, Christian could wait, she couldn't keep lying to Caleb either.

It was just after 8 AM when Caleb called, saying he was up and if she was okay still he could come over. Jess quickly pulled on some clothes, checked Harry was still asleep and snuck out of the silent Escala apartment.

It was early on a Sunday morning, and everyone was still asleep so it was easy for her to hurry down to the car park, where she saw a familiar black Mercedes at the end. Caleb was sat in the car with a pensive look, staring forward until Jess opened the door and sat in the passenger seat, looking awkward.

'Hi… how are you doing?'

She shrugged, pulling her sleeves down and looking over at Caleb with a deep sigh 'I need to tell you something, and I just need you to listen, until the end, okay? I… I didn't tell you something…'

When Jess had finished there was a horrible silence and Caleb looked like he was going to shout or hit something before he abruptly got out of the car, breathing heavily. Jess quickly got out of her side as well, glancing around to check that the car lot was still otherwise empty.

Caleb turned back and looked shocked 'wh- what? You didn't think to tell me about this?'

Jess's voice was dry and hollow 'I didn't realise I had to tell you everything, I wasn't aware that 17 year olds relationships were quite so serious'

He looked furious 'We were going to have a child together in case you had forgotten'

Caleb immediately regretted what he had said and he watched Jess as her eyes quickly darkened 'you don't have to remind me of what I lost Caleb. Don't you dare pull that card on me- don't you fucking dare'

Jess looked like she was going to hit him 'I told you because I thought it was the right thing to do. If you're going to throw the fact that I lost our baby back in my face, then I can't do this'

'Jess-'

'No, don't ever fucking contact me again, or I swear I will destroy you'

Caleb was going to say something but Jess turned on her heel and stormed out of the car park, not giving Caleb time to even think of something to say, let alone get it out of his mouth.

Jess had gone back through to the lift that led back up to the apartment before he could say anything.

Elliot had arranged with Jess that they were going to lunch and he arrived at the apartment to pick her up at 11.30, though Gail informed him that she had only just woken up and was still getting ready. None of them were aware that she had actually been awake for several hours, and had disappeared back into her bedroom after talking to Caleb.

Elliot had sat talking to Gail for twenty minutes before Jess finally came into the main room, wearing thick black tights and a short little red dress, with boots and her hair straightened for once. She looked a little pale even with her makeup, but the first thing Elliot noted was how skinny her legs looked 'alright Jess, when was the last time you had a proper meal?'

She rolled her eyes and picked up her long black coat from the side, shaking her head 'you sound awfully like your brother now. I had a huge breakfast the other day and he still wasn't happy'

Elliot narrowed his eyes slightly but stood up, taking his keys off the counter 'right, let's go'

Elliot looked over at Jess as she moved the pasta starter around on her plate 'so, can I ask if you've spoken to Caleb recently?'

She shrugged 'I saw him on Saturday night'

'Right, where do you stand?'

Elliot couldn't miss the way Jess closed her eyes for a fraction of a second and glanced pointedly down at her food 'not good'

'By not good...'

Her voice was quiet 'he's never going to speak to me again'

Elliot put his fork down 'why? It's been an emotional strain on him too Jess, you have to understand th-'

'Its nothing to do with the baby'

There was a long pause before either of them spoke, Elliot breaking the silence 'Jess, I think you need to explain'

She swallowed, looking down at her plate 'can you promise me you won't tell Christian? Or Ana'

Elliot frowned but nodded a little 'okay. We have a deal, just tell me what it is, you're worrying me'

What is it?

Let me know what your guesses are!
