novelxo Chapter 43: 43
Maddox's POV
I stare at a sleeping Jayda beside me.
She looks so beautiful, and now she is carrying a baby.
Our baby.
I still can't believe I will be a father.
The silly grin has yet to leave my face even hours after she gave me the news.
This is definitely the happiest day of my life, I will finally start a family with Jayda.
Jayda stirs in her sleep and her eyes flutter open.
"Maddox" she mumbles.
"Yes?" I answer softly.
Jayda rubs her eyes tiredly "What time is it?"
"3:56am" I answer tracing lazy circles on her back.
She yawns "Come cuddle, I want to sleep"
"Okay" I say, wrapping my arms around her and kissing the top of her head.
"Let's sleep"
**************************************
So what did you think.
Haha. JK! There's more.
Jayda's POV
I wake up Maddox's hands wrapped around my form.
I smile widely when I see that one of his arms is protectively around my stomach.
I carefully untangle his arms from around me and slowly walk to our bathroom and brush my teeth.
Poor Maddox must be exhausted, he went to sleep extremely late last night.
I decide to make him a good breakfast in bed.
I skip down the steps and finally get to the kitchen.
I decide to make him a tortilla with some bacon, toast and some coffee.
First I out two slices of bread in the toaster.
Then I take, the egg carton, green peppers, onions cheese, ham and bacon out if the fridge.
I take the cutting board and put it on the counter.
Grabbing a knife I start cutting the green peppers in little square pieces. I then start cutting the onions only to hiss a few seconds later when I cut my finger.
I walk to the since and start rinsing my finger, willing it to stop bleeding. It kind of stung thanks to the onions.
"What are you doing out of bed" Maddox asks with a frown as he walks down the stairs.
"I am making you breakfast" I answer, grabbing a paper towel and wrapping it around my finger.
Maddox sniffs the air and his eyes zero on my bleeding finger.
In seconds he is next to me "What happened?" He asks, his eyes worriedly scanning my finger.
I shrug "I was cutting some onions and I accidentally cut my finger but it's nothing serious"
"Nothing serious? It's bleeding!" Maddox exclaims, running his hands over his face.
Okay, he was freaking out.
"Maddox it's nothing. Its just a small cut" I say waving my finger in front of his face. It wasn't even bleeding that much.
Maddox scowls "What if it get's infected? It could harm the baby and-"
"Oh my gosh Maddox calm down. Nothing is wrong. I just need a bandaid or something. I promise you its alright" I say giving him a hug then wrapping my finger around in another paper towel. "I'm going to get you a bandaid" Maddox huffs and goes upstairs.
Sighing I turn back to my breakfast making. I start cutting the onions again and almost cut myself again when Maddox's voice startles me.
"What are you doing? You are going to hurt yourself again" He says loudly
"Maddox I am making breakfast, leave me alone" I hiss. This is getting annoying really fast.
"First of all I won't leave you alone because I have your bandaid and second of all I'll make breakfast. You go lay down" Maddox says calmly.
I snatch the bandaid from his hands and wrap it around my cut. "Maddox I can make breakfast" I say, annoyed.
"I know you can but you must be tired let me make it. I'll bring it to you and you can eat in bed" He says, taking the toasts out if the toaster and putting them on a plate.
"No! Maddox I am making you food in bed! I wanted to make you breakfast not the other way around" I say, feeling a sudden anger.
"Jayda, calm down. You are getting stressed and it can hurt the baby" Maddox voice is calm and collected which only makes me angrier.
"Stop it! You are being so overbearing right now! Give me space! I am not freaking handicapped its a baby. Just leave me the hell alone" I yell, and storm up to the room.
He needs to stop. I am expecting a baby, I am not a baby. He needs to let me do what I always do. I refuse to be treated like this.
As soon as I slam the bedroom door my emotions change like a switch and I start crying.
I just wanted to make breakfast, and he was just being protective and I was mean to him.
He probably hates me now, he didn't run after me.
He probably left the house to be with Anna.
Anna.
I am going to kill her if Maddox went to see her. I will cut her in little tiny square pieces just like I cut the green peppers and the onions.
I don't care what lan thinks, killing his sister will be worth it.
I start pacing around the room.
What if Maddox didn't go see her?
What if he just leaves me and moves to another state. Or worse, what if he sends me to another state.
He is probably in his office buying me the ticket to Alaska right now.
I don't want to go to Alaska. Its cold and I heard some times there's no sunlight.
I hear a knock on the door and Maddox walks in with a tray with scrabbled eggs with bacon and toast.
I was planning on making him an omelette not scrabbled eggs.
Maddox slowly puts the tray on the bed and looks at me.
"I am just came here to bring you breakfast. I'll be in my office" Maddox tells me carefully and starts turning around when I stop him.
"No!" I yell and run towards him and wrap my arms around his waist tightly.
"I don't want to go to Alaska, Maddox please don't buy my ticket. I am sorry." I beg frantically, tears running down my face.
"Woah" Maddox mumbles "What are you talking about?" He asks while hugging me back.
I shake my head "Nothing, I am just sorry"
He grabs my face in both hands and kisses me. "It's alright Jayda, but you know I am just worried about you right?"
I nod "Yes but you keep treating me like a kid and it pisses me off. I just want you to treat me normally"
"Its hard, you are carrying my pup. All I want to do is protect you and the baby." He sighs.
"Nothing is going to happen to us, besides. Its not like I am doing anything reckless. All I am doing is making you breakfast." I point out.
He rolls his eyes "You cut your finger"
"Maddox don't start" I snap and he sighs muttering a 'whatever'.
"You are awfully moody today" Maddox says with a grin.
I grin back "You're awfully not moody today"
He laughs "I have a reason to not be moody. The woman I love is carrying my pup"
My smile widens "You are going to be a great dad"
Maddox chuckles "I sure hope so"
I giggle then frown "Speaking of dads. I think it's time I talk to mine"
I guess it's finally time to hear what he has to say.
"Are you going to tell him about our baby?" Maddox asks and I shrug.
"It depends on how it all goes"☐☐☐☐
