Chapter 199

“Mooooorning!” His low sing song voice brought her out of her deep slumber.

“I dont wanna wake up yet...leave me alone!” she mumbled sleepily.

Ducking his head under the covers she clutched at it as she felt him lift her nightie and deposited a mighty raspberry blow on her stomach.  Jon received a healthy kick as answer.

“Ooooh great now you woke her woke up!!!! I’ll never be able to sleep now!” Megan was beside herself.

Crawling over her he surfaced from the covers.

“That was the idea darlin’.”

Grabbing the nearest pillow she banged him in the face.

“HEY!!!”

“Serves you right! Be thankful its a damn pillow!”

“You will never really hurt me...you cant....”

Just as she reared he grabbed her wrists, holding her to the mattress.

“Whatcha gonna do Mrs. B?”

“Jon! I’m warning you....”

The morning light danced in his eyes, he was cleanly shaven and freshly showered, his scent confirming the fact.

“Before you kick me in the balls. I made you some coffee.” He eyed the night stand.

“..and I just wanna let you know I havent forgotten about the lamaze thingy for tonight... 6 huh?”

“Oh shit! I forgot to tell you. I cancelled. We cant leave Dorothea alone. The nurse only works till 5.”

Sliding off her he sat next to her on the bed, dragging his fingers through his air.

“Dammit Megan! Your life cant revolve around Dot all the time. We are having a baby too. Do you even rememer that? Do you even care?!”

Anger snapped her upright on the bed.

“What is it with you?! Look at me! I resemble a damn hippo and you ask me if I remember that I’m pregnant? I waddle like a friggen duck, I cant sleep because she kicks my guts to shreds and you dare to be sarcastic? Don’t you think I take care of our baby? Well fuck you Jon!”

She slid from the bed, grabbing at her gown.

“Meg wait...”

“NO Jon! You wait! I have something to say and you WILL listen. Do you even realize how much I put into this whole situation?! I accepted it when I found out Dorothea was carrying your baby, I welcomed her into our life when you so selfishly made your own desicion. I stood by her  through this horrible ordeal. I even opened my home for her and you scream at me?! Damn you, you selfish bastard! I do the best I can for my baby, you, our son , Dorothea and God knows who else. So you get off your high horse!”

The moment he uttered the words he felt regret. She was all hell, fire and brimstone and there was no way to calm her fury. He shot up from the bed, stalking towards her when her cold warning stopped him in his tracks.

Reaching for her she jerked back, angry tears spilled down her cheeks, her eyes blazing.

“Dont you touch me! Go do what ever it is you got up for... I had enough! You hear me? ENOUGH!”

Not willing to leave her that way, he gave a few forceful steps and closed his arms around her shaking body. He received one...no two fist blows against his chest but he held on.

She had been keeping this in for too long about time it all erupted!

“You are right Sweet baby. Im a selfish bastard and all that other crap you called me. I’ve been wallowing in my own little fucked up world, not realizing the huge sacrifices you are making! Forgive me? You are the best mother I’ve ever met, I didn’t mean it like that.  Jaden is proof of that aIone. I just cant stand it anymore, seeing you put everyone’s needs before your own, while you are so beautifully pregnant and need to take care of yourself or better yet me take care of you! Dorothea’s difficult pregnancy is taking so much from your pregnancy, no one is actually paying attention to your special time.

“But that ok. I don’t need that. I enjoy her...no one else has to right now. Not until she is born anyway.”

“Thats so wrong..so damn wrong....”

He cupped her chin.

“I don’t want to fight, not with you..please honey. Say you love this ole bastard?”

“ I love you..you asshole.”

He chuckled at her, skimming the tears on her cheeks away.

“ I hate to see you cry...gimme a smile..c’mon you want to...thaaat’s my girl!”

Her lips tasted salty but oh so delicious beneath his. Not wanting to force himself on her , he eased back only to be followed by her searching mouth.

His pants grew tight and he groaned helplessly.

“Baby as much as I want to...I have to run...damn it all to hell! I gotta go!” Dragging himself from her he made a mental note NOT to make early meetings anymore...just in case.
