Do I Know You-Ch 38
Penelope leaned over and looked at the three tests and as tears streamed down her face she covered her face with her hands and said, "positive, they are all positive". He pulled her in his arms and held her close and said, "it's going to be alright sweetness, I promise", she started crying harder and said, "mmmmaybe they are all defective".
Derek rocked her and said, "baby I'm here, I'm here", her legs got wobbily so he picked her up and carried her over to their bed and laid her down and got on behind her and wrapped his loving arms around her. She relaxed in his arms as she laid there crying until she finally fell asleep a couple of hours later.
The next morning when Derek woke up the bed was cold and empty, he raised up and said, "baby girl, baby girl are you here"? and when he didn't get a response he got up and headed downstairs in search of her. He got downstairs and found her sitting in front of the fireplace drinking a cup of coffee.
He sat down on the floor behind her and wrapped his arms around her and said, "baby why didn't you wake me up"?, she just sat there not responding to him. He leaned in and said, "baby are you alright"?, he saw tears streaming down her face and said, "awwww honey please don't cry", she leaned against him and said, "I can't do this, I just can't".
He said, "you can't do what baby"?, I can't carry that monsters baby Derek, I just can't", Derek said, "goddess why don't we get dressed and get momma to watch Bella so we can head out to the doctor". Derek helped her up out of the floor and said, "why don't you go and get dressed and I will call momma and then I will be right up".
Penelope sighed as she headed up the stairs, Derek pulled out his cell and called his momma and told her everything that was going on and Frans heart was breaking for her son and daughter in law. After ending the call with his mom he headed upstairs and when he stepped inside their bedroom he quickly got dressed and was sitting on the bed waiting on Penelope to come out of the bathroom.
Tamara woke up in jail sick as a dog, she ran over to the toilet and threw up what she had eaten the night before, she wiped her mouth off and her cell mate said, "so how far along are you"?, Tamara looked at her and said, "what are you talking about"?, her cell mate laughed and said, "well honey you have been in here for a while and you haven't had a period and you have been sick for the past several mornings sooooo how far along are you and who the hell is the father"?, Tamara leaned over and once again threw up in the toilet knowing that if she was pregnant that the father was a monster, a monster named Thomas.
Penelope came out of the bathroom and smiled as she saw her husband walking over toward her, he intertwined their fingers as they headed down the stairs. When they walked into the kitchen there was a knock at the door, Derek kissed Penelope on the lips gently and said, "I'll get it that's momma".
Penelope sat down at the table and said, "ok handsome", Derek walked over to the door and opened the door and saw his mom standing there, he hugged her tight and said, "thanks for watching Bella for us momma". Fran sighed and said, "anytime baby boy, how is Penelope doing"?, Derek said, "not good momma, not good at all".
After talking to Fran for a couple of minutes the couple hugged her and made their way out the door, the ride to the doctor was a quiet one as Penelope spent the entire trip looking out the window. When they pulled up in the parking lot Derek got out and walked around to the passengers side of the car and helped his wife out of the car.
They walked inside and after signing in they walked over and sat down to wait for their turn, Derek gently squeezed her hand and whispered, "I love you sweetness". She looked over at him and said, "I love you to handsome", they both looked up when the nurse called the name Penelope Morgan.
The doctor joined them a couple of minutes later and after a lengthy explanation as to why they were there bloodwork was performed and now all was left to do was wait patiently for the results. Tamara was now sitting nervously on the table waiting on the results of her blood work, as she rubbed her stomach she hoped beyond all hope that she wasn't pregnant, how would she be able to have that monsters baby.
In two different places the doctors were walking into the rooms, Penelope and Derek looked up at one doctor while Tamara looked up at the other and all three of them felt their hearts start beating faster when they all heard, "YOUR PREGNANT AROUND 9 WEEKS" and at that point Penelope started to cry knowing that the baby she was carrying could indeed be Thomas's.
