Shopping Trip
Vanessa
A few weeks have gone by and my belly was growing at a rapid pace. I looked like Candice did when she was five months pregnant herself. I woke up this morning feeling nauseous and vomiting, just as I have every single day.
As I leaned against the toilet, I could feel Clay’s hand gently stroking my back. He was supportive through this first trimester.
“I’m sorry,” he whispered as he kissed my head. I leaned against his shoulder, smiling and trying to forget the unpleasant taste in my mouth as I closed my eyes to take on his care and love.
“Come on, Clay. Don’t be silly. We both made these babies, and to be honest, I don’t regret it. At all.”

ClayAs I was fixing the pipe on the Landon’s shower, Lucy came into the bathroom with a smile on her face, carrying a jar of sweet iced tea. She served some in a glass and sat it on the sink, smiling at me shyly while putting her hair behind her ear.“I wanted to thank you for not pressing charges against me, even though I probably deserved to be arrested. But it means a lot that you forgive me and that I can move on,” she said, her eyes full of hope as I sat up and grabbed the glass with the delicious sweet drink.“I forgive you, Lucy. But like I told Mark, I can’t have you anywhere near me or my family. Including Vanessa.”She nodded, understanding my request. &ld

ClayI paced back and forth, waiting for any news about Vanessa and our babies. It was frustrating not to know anything as they worked with her there.My phone buzzed, and Sarah’s face appeared on the screen. She made sure to put her picture there, making me chuckle at her insistence the other day when we were celebrating the victory in the court hearing.“You need to have me on your phone so you remember who your beautiful sister is,” she had said, making Vanessa laugh, almost choking on her food. I loved that crazy girl.Hitting the green answer button, I put the phone in my ear, taking a deep breath so I didn’t brea

Vanessa“Here we go. Slowly,” Clay said as he helped me up the stairs.“Love, don’t exaggerate. I can go at a normal pace.” I chuckled, but he was not having it. His serious expression said it all.“You almost lost the babies, and it’s not the first time you find yourself and them in danger. So, I apologize for worrying.”He sat me down in bed, taking my shoes off and helping me lay back before tucking me under the blanket.I smiled, knowing that with him, I wouldn’t have to worry about being unhappy, but I had to be careful about making him upset. This side of Clay was not to my liking, and he was right to feel this way.He’s a

ClayI opened my eyes to see Vanessa sitting up, hugging herself and trembling. All I could see were her tears streaming down her cheeks, and that worried me.“Baby, are you okay?” I kissed her shoulder, her skin feeling cold.“I’ll be fine. It was just a bad dream,” she whispered as she slowly got out of bed and headed to the bathroom, closing the door behind her.I followed her, but didn’t dare go in, so I stood by the door and knocked.“Tell me, what happened?” I asked, expecting an answer from her. There was just silence, but I could hear a muffled sob coming from behind the door. Hoping it was unlocked, I turned the knob and walked in, seeing her sitting on the toilet with a tissue

Vanessa“What are you doing here?” I asked, holding myself from hugging her. I have missed her, but I was also hurt that she didn’t even speak on my behalf when Dad fired me from the company. Clay held me by the waist, supporting me, and I was grateful because I needed it.“I came to see how you were doing,” she said, looking down at the already big bump on my belly. “But I see you’re doing well. How far along are you?”I looked down with a smile, rubbing my belly, before I looked back at her.“I’m still three months, almost four.”“Wow, you really are show
