"Ummm..." Selena stalled, her eyes everywhere but his, causing him to jut out his chin, wondering why she hadn't answered him,
"Um, what?" Jack asked, a hint of frustration in his voice. "Are you pregnant or what?"
Selena shrugged, but a small smile crept on her face. "I'm not sure yet, maybe."
Jack huffed and took a quick glance at his watch then stood up. "We'll just talk about this later. We gotta be there in thirty minutes."
Selena let the conversation go for now then got into the shower, curious as to why he seemed upset. He was the one who wanted another child, not her, and now it's like they switched positions.
Once she got out the shower, she changed into a long black asymmetrical and sheer dress with a sparkly strap and black heels then tied her hair into a high ponytail.
She walked out the bathroom and into the bedroom to see Jack putting a black denim jacket over his white shirt, matching his black jeans.
"I'm ready." Selena announced, grabbing her phone off the bed.
"Alright, Manny's outside, let's go."
Once they got to the restaurant, they thanked God that there weren't any paparazzi outside - at least not yet - leaving it to be an easier job for Berry and Kevin, only letting fans get an autograph or picture with Jack.
Berry and Kevin sat two tables away from Jack and Selena, Jack even paying for them to eat as well instead of just sitting there.
An uncomfortable silence was held over their table until after they received their food and Selena spoke up. "Should I be the one to start the conversation or you?"
Jack shrugged loosely. "I guess." He said, forking a piece of stake into his mouth.
"Well, what's going on with you? You wanted a child at first and now all of a sudden you don't."
"Because, you didn't want another one, so I stopped wanting one."
"So you don't want one?"
"If you have one then yeah, and if you don't then you don't."
Selena chuckled bitterly, taking a drink of her water to calm down. "You don't care. Wow, I get it."
"Good." He answered in a voice as nonchalant as he could muster.
Selena arched her brows, shocked at what was coming out of his mouth. "What is that supposed to mean? What is wrong with you?" She asked, keeping her tone as low as possible.
"The only reason you want a baby is cause you're having one. If you weren't already pregnant then you wouldn't want one, just like before when I asked you." He pointed out.
"Do you wanna know why I didn't want another kid?" She didn't give him a chance to answer and she proceeded. "Because I was trying to leave, Jack. I didn't want to bring someone else into our life when I was already trying to get out."
Jack's jaw clenched, his heart falling to his feet at the same time, this being the first time he was hearing this. "Oh, really?"
"Really."
"It would've been better if you told me this then instead of now."
"Um, I most definitely did tell you. I had the divorce papers on the counter and what happened after that? You took me upstairs and we had sex. Then I tried leaving, then what happened then? You left and slept with someone else, and yes, Jack I did give you permission, but it still hurt, even if I did hide it and you still fail to realize it."
The both of them still remained to keep their voices to a minimum so no one could hear, but it was clear that their temper was through the roof.
"Okay." Jack shook his head and leaned back into his seat, his voice calm and steady. "Do you still want to leave?"
Selena shrugged then stared down at her hands that she didn't realize were fidgeting. "I don't know...Sometimes, I just feel like I married the love of my life and you didn't."
Jack's face softened. "Are you serious? Selena, I lo-"
Selena then cut him off and her eyes meeting with his. "And sometimes I feel like I didn't marry the love of my life either."
He was almost surprised that she said that, but for some reason he wasn't. All he knew was that it hurt more than she probably thought it did.
Jack nodded, swallowing the boiling anger and hurt that was rushing through him.
"Alright, let's go."'He dug in his pocket then left an excessive amount of money in on the table, not caring enough to call the waiter.
Selena grabbed her phone off the table and stood up then seen that Berry and Kevin were already at the door, ready to block everyone who tried to make contact with them.
Immediately when Jack and Selena stepped out of the restaurant, shrieks from fans pierced their ears, flashes from the cameras nearly blinded them, and the paparazzi were pushing to get close to them.
"Jack, can I please get a picture with you?" A brunette teenager asked.
Jack couldn't resist and took one with her, then eventually with everyone. Even though he was still upset with Selena, he never passed up a chance to make his fans dreams come true.
Selena stood over by the SUV and waited, patiently. She actually wanted them to take as long as they possibly could, just so she could avoid their argument at home.
She nearly fell on her face when a pap pushed her, trying to get close ups of her. Berry then shoved him with everything he had, making the guy hit the concrete hard. "You okay?" Berry asked Selena.
"Yeah, thanks." She gave him a small smile, used to this always happening.
"Nice, Selena! Wonderful! Sexy!" The guy on the ground shouted, his camera focused up on Selena.
Selena then noticed that most of the cameras were now on her, leaving her confused. She seen Kevin leave Jack's side to whisper something into Berry's ear before returning back to Jack.
Berry immediately opened the door to the back of the SUV. "Miss Selena, I think you better get inside now. The flashes are making the fabric on your dress see through."
Selena was disgusted and immediately covered her breast with her arm as she nodded and climbed into the chair of the SUV, making the paparazzi hoot and cat call at her.
Just as Berry shut the door, she heard a roar from the crowd outside. She could barley see what was going due to the flashes and the windows being tinted from the outside didn't make anything better.
Before she could ask Manny what was happening, he rushed outside then locked the doors. "I'll be right back. You stay here."
Selena climbed to the front seat to look out the windshield and what she saw didn't surprise her one bit.
Jack was punching the guy who Berry had pushed earlier. Berry and Kevin were still trying to keep the mob of paparazzi back while the screaming fans were now silent, now seeing a different side of Jack.
Manny was attempting to pull Jack off the pap, but his strength was useless compared to Jack's. But he stopped once a tall police officer walked towards them and pulled Manny away from Jack then pulled Jack off the pap and forced the both of them onto the ground.
Once the officer pulled out the handcuffs, Selena tried to get out of the car, but she then realized that Manny had every door locked and there was no way out unless she had the keys.
She banged on the window and called Manny's name trying to get his attention, but he couldn't hear or see her, being to focused on Jack getting pushed into the back of the police car.
Selena's mouth hung with her lips slightly parted. The silenced fans were now raising hell and pissed that they arrested Jack, but the paparazzi never stopped flashing, hungry for these pictures to get out and make them money.
Her mind began to shut down while her fingernails began to claw at the leather seats as she realized that she was going home alone tonight.
