2021-02-13 09:03:11I sat at my desk scrolling through my photos of Seth and me on the beach. It had been a month since we had returned and I was already ready for another vacation. When Camilla said I'd be handling more accounts I had no idea just how much more I would actually be doing. It was close to midnight and I was still not done designing a new theme for one of our newest and pickiest clients.
Seth had already called and I didn't want to bug him, he had his son staying the weekend with him and I didn't want to distract him from that. Leaning pack in my chair I closed my eyes, they were burning from staring at the computer for so long. I knew I should just give up and go to bed but I really didn't want to work on anything tomorrow. I had purposely taken Friday off giving me a glorious 3 day weekend to do nothing but sleep.
This week had gotten the better of me somewhere along the way. I was exhausted and had been having a headache for days. My appetite had all but vanished. For su

Broken Promises Not How I Had Planned
I found it almost impossible to sleep snuggled up close to Seth. It had been two weeks since I had found out I was pregnant and Seth showed up out of nowhere tonight. I mean not that I was complaining, I had been happy that he had been in Vegas and decided to make an unplanned trip to see me since he was so close.When he showed up at my door I just knew he was here to confront me. He had told me he would be in Vegas for a couple of days and we had talked about trying to meet up but neither of our schedules could fit it in. I guess he found time.Now here I was my head laid on his chest, our bodies side by side, and I was feeling super guilty. Brooke had stopped trying to persuade me into telling him but I could still hear her voice in my head. My first doctors' appointment was in the morning. Should I tell him? Maybe him showing up tonight as a sign.Staying still was proving impossible. I moved my legs trying not to wake Seth. For a moment I had thought I had

As my phone began ringing again and his name flashed in front of me I knew without a doubt that he had indeed heard me. I didn't want to answer, this wasn't how this was supposed to happen. I knew if I ignored him he would be pissed, but I also knew I wasn't ready to talk to him. I let out a breath as my phone went silent to only jump at the sound of my text. Opening it up I read "KENNEDY CLAIRE ROGERS PICK UP THIS GOD DAMN PHONE RIGHT NOW!It began ringing again and I picked it up, he didn't even give me time to say hello before he began. "What the fuck did you just say?"I swallowed wondering if I could lie. He again didn't give me time to speak, "is it true? How long have you known?"I looked down, "today."He laughed, "today you found out TODAY."I sighed, "ok no, I found out two weeks ago but I went to the doctor yesterday and...."I had to pull the phone from my ear as he started in, "and you didn't think I needed to know any
Last Updated : 2021-02-15Broken Promises Leaving LA
My decision to move back to Miami was an easy one, I wanted Seth, and if that's what it took that's what I would do. I would have preferred to be able to remain in LA until I knew how things were going to work out but sometimes you had to sacrifice to get what you wanted. This was a huge sacrifice for me. I had sworn to myself when we first started talking again I wouldn't do the exact thing I was doing now.We had talked forever that night. My moving wouldn't be as easy as my other moves. I had a lease on my condo that I couldn't break, I had mandatory office meetings that I had to attend, and Brooke how the hell was I going to tell her. Seth was taking care of the condo for me and paying out the rest of my lease. My job however proved to be a bigger problem than I had anticipated. I had planned on keeping it and flying in when I had to attend a meeting, Camilla already had approved me to conference in on some of them so I didn't think it would be that big of a deal.

The closer I got to Seth's jet the better I began to feel. I took the steps up a little disappointed he wasn't waiting for me but the minute I saw him and his goofy ass grin I couldn't help but grin back up at him. He stood up pulling me into his arms, "its about time you gave in."I looked up at him frowning as I took a seat, "whatever, you're going to be begging me to leave in a week."His hands skimmed over my belly and I felt chills, "I doubt it."We both looked up as Seth's assistant boarded the plane and let us know we would be taking off in about ten minutes. He nodded leaning back as he looked over at me, "when we land I have to run somewhere for a couple of hours but then I should be yours all weekend."I nodded yawning, "you're good. I just want to sleep."Grabbing my hand Seth looked over at me, "so how have you been feeling."Looking down I smiled giving his hand a soft squeeze, "I'm better now."He grinned at me, "I know

My first week back in Miami had seemed to fly by. I had unpacking to do, shopping for necessities for both myself and the house, and just getting back on a schedule. The time change was no bitch either and being pregnant only made it seem worse.I still had another week to go before my next doctors' appointment so I mostly trolled Pinterest looking for nursery room ideas. Today was no different, I was sat downstairs on the couch covered with a blanket looking at my phone when Seth came in slamming doors. Sighing I looked over my shoulder to see him throw his keys down on the counter, "what's your problem?" I asked as he walked into the living area.He shook his head pulling off his baseball cap as he made his way up the stairs, "I don't have any problems that I can't handle."Frowning at him I closed my eyes. I really didn't have time for any kind of drama right now. I had eaten something for lunch that had made me sick and I still felt like crap. When he came b

When Seth had told me he needed to talk to me I automatically expected the worst and although what he had told me wasn't what I thought it still hurt just as bad. I looked up at him unable to form a complete sentence for several seconds, "what do you mean you don't want me to come to your birthday party?"Seth sat behind his desk watching me as if I was a tiger about to pounce, "I just don't think this is the best time."I narrowed my eyes at him, "so what now you're hiding me. I mean you are the one that begged me to move here and now you want to keep me some big secret."Seth closed his eyes sighing, "I'm not keeping you a secret Kennedy, it's just not the right time."Frowning at him I shook my head, if the words, "it's not the right time," left his lips again I would probably throw something at him, like a chair, a chair would do good. Seth looked at me wearily, "after your doctor's appointment tomorrow I'm flying out, if you want you can still come b

The morning of Seth's birthday he blew my phone up and I ignored him. I had spent most of the morning in the bed sleeping but finally got up and turned my phone completely off to not have to deal with him. After a quick bath, I found myself sitting Indian-style in the bed staring at the envelope sticking out of my purse. Lord knew I was impatient, I was not tempted to rip into it and take a peek.I had called Brooke and she had already planned for some of the girls to fly down so they could throw me a baby shower. Talking other helped me but my mind on other things and not worry about Seth. I wondered if it would be petty to not allow him to my baby shower/gender reveal. Sighing I knew I could last a week. I had wanted to have my baby shower back in our hometown so my friends could all be there but Brooke told me no that everyone wanted a reason to have to come to Florida.It wasn't until around 8 that night that I turned my phone back on. I had several missed ca

As excited as I was to see Seth in front of me I felt guilty that he had left just to make me happy. Wrapping my arms around him I closed my eyes inhaling his scent. "You shouldn't have come home. I'm sorry I tripped out."Seth shrugged as I let him go and I followed behind him as he entered the house. "It's over K, I'm home. I'm not mad. Are you good?"I nodded as he turned back to face me. "Yeah."Seth continues on upstairs so I followed behind him not talking. Walking into our bedroom I watched as Seth threw his bag in a chair before turning his attention back on me. "So what did you do while I was gone?"I made a face looking down, "slept. It's hard work creating your child."Seth laughed walking back up to me and pulling me in his arms. "So are you going to reward me for coming home early?"I shrugged laughing as he looked down at me. "I don't know, I just might," I said as I pushed him back against the bed.Seth grabbed my hands

Broken Promises Remi Nicole
With Christmas behind us, the baby's due date was fast approaching. I was miserable now and Seth thought it was hilarious to bring up the fact that I seemed to wobble when I walked. If I thought I had been tired before I obviously didn't know tired.I had never put much thought or belief in the "nesting" stories I had heard friends talk about or read in books. But with two weeks before my due date, I found myself, going into full nesting mode. I organized and refolded or hung up all of the baby's clothes. Organized blankets by colors and patterns. Even the many boxes of diapers had been stacked in the closet by size all facing the same way.Seth had gone out of town for New Year's, he had asked me if I needed him to stay but I told him I would be fine without him and I was. I spent my time decorating rearranging or sleeping. My cravings were gone and now I had almost no appetite. I don't think my stomach had room for anything but the baby. Getting up and down was no easy
Broken Promises Christmas
December was moving way too fast for my liking. I stood in front of a massive Christmas tree that hadn't been there the day before frowning. I wasn't ready for Christmas, I had no idea what to buy Seth. I mean it's not like he didn't already have every possible thing he could ever want. I had given his assistant a list of things to buy for my family and friends and now I wished that I would have just gone and bought it myself. It took the fun away from Christmas.I understood why Seth didn't want me walking around shopping though, I was huge pregnant and didn't have that much longer to go. Turning the corner to the kitchen I grabbed a cup of coffee and returned to stand back in front of the tree. It was pretty, just not my style, not that I would have told Seth that. I had no idea how I could have managed to sleep through the house being decorated. It was only 9:30 which was early as hell for me to be up. I preferred to sleep till 10:30 or 11.Walking down the hall I w
Broken Promises Thanksgiving
With the baby shower behind us, I could now appreciate it for what it was. I think my apprehension had been from the disaster of my previous gender reveal. I felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulder and I could now worry about other matters, like spending Thanksgiving with Seth's mom. I had no real reason to worry about that but I didn't know what she thought about me yet.When the time came I was nowhere near ready. I had hoped my doctor would say I wasn't approved for travel but I wasn't so lucky. I knew I needed to be up packing my bags for our trip but I didn't want to get out of bed. I felt like I had just laid down. Seth his bags packed and ready before my feet even touched the ground. He arched his eyebrow at me, "you know if you would start going to bed earlier you wouldn't be so sleepy."I frowned at him, "if you would stay on your side of the bed I wouldn't be up all night."Seth threw my bag up on the bed as I made my way to the bathroom, I ign
Broken Promises Baby Shower
At 30 weeks pregnant, I was already over the whole pregnancy thing. My belly was huge and it was hard for me to even get up out of bed anymore. I didn't know if I could go another 10 weeks. I was tired of the "are you sure there is only one baby in there jokes." I was tired of people thinking my stomach was an open invitation to feel for the baby. I was turning out to be grouchy as hell in my last trimesterAlthough nothing had been said I had a feeling the "dinner" Seth was wanting to take me on tonight was actually going to turn into a baby shower. I don't know how I knew but I just did, he had been asking too many questions about things I knew damn well he didn't care about.It wasn't that I didn't want a baby shower, I just didn't want one today. I didn't want to get up, I didn't want to get dressed, I just wanted to lay in bed and sleep. I felt like we had just had the gender reveal and that had turned out to be a huge mess. Brooke and I had cleared the air but things
Broken Promises Tired
It had been two weeks since Seth had come back from New York and I was already for him to go back out of town. He had tried to talk to me about what had happened and I had refused to listen. He told me repeatedly that nothing had happened and I told him to stop talking about it.He had been glued to my side. Today was my first time out of the house without him.I couldn't believe I was already 26 weeks but at the same time, I couldn't believe I was only 26 weeks. I felt like I had been pregnant forever. Seth had wanted to come with me but I snapped at him and told him I was more than capable of driving myself. I don't know if he finally realized I'd reached my melting point or if I had just shocked him by going left. I didn't know and didn't care, all I knew was I could finally breathe again.Don't get me wrong he still left and went to the studio, he just never stayed gone long. If he stayed gone more than a couple of hours he would call and if I ignored his call
Broken Promises Welcome Home
My flight home had been miserable. I was tired and cranky, my flight had been delayed due to bad weather, and Seth and I had said our goodbyes in anger. Every time I felt better about our relationship something always came along to fuck it up. Was it a sign that we just weren't meant to be?Seth hadn't come back to the hotel till almost 5 am. I had never truly gone into a deep sleep so I heard him when he came into the room. I laid still listening for any signs of his movements or where he was. When the shower came on I grabbed my phone checking the time. I don't know exactly what made me do it but I got on Twitter and searched for Candace.It didn't take me long to find her. I felt my stomach drop and her last tweet, "when he has to leave your bed." It was short and there was no reason for me to think she was talking about Seth but I did. Pulling up Instagram I searched for her again, it was harder to find her but I did, she had the same damn thing posted there but wi
Broken Promises Don't
After Seth was gone I laid around most of the day, Brooke had called around lunch and I talked to her for a bit. We mostly talked about Dutch and his Twitter rant he was having for the day. I think she had realized that he still has some major growing up to do. The boy had no filter and no chill mode whatsoever.I ate a pretty basic lunch, a simple club sandwich, and fries had done the job. After googling restaurants I decided to try one called Republique, it was French and I had no idea if I would like it or not but I liked its picture. I figured Seth would veto it out if he didn't like it but when I text him he only responded with and ok.It was around two when Seth came back and I was still in the same exact spot I had been when he left. Walking in he shook his head, "looks like we will be flying out in the morning."I nodded at him as he sat down beside me, "that's fine with me, but what else?"I could see by the look on his face that he had more news
Broken Promises What Makes You Happy
Going to the club when you are pregnant is absolutely no fun. You can't drink, the music aggravates you and the baby, and people stare at you. I hate when people stare at me. I feel as if they are judging me and guess what they are. Now I know being with Seth causes lots of stares and unwanted attention, but being with Seth pregnant in a club brings so much more.Do you think the extra attention bothers him? Do you think he even notices? That answer is a giant no, not until you point it out cause you are uncomfortable and he acts like it's just everyday life, and I guess for him it is.So here I sit at a table beside Seth who is clearly on another level contemplating ways to make him take me back to the hotel. The whole atmosphere just wasn't what I was feeling. I had tried to stay home but Seth put on his sad face and I found myself agreeing like an idiot. Why couldn't he have taken me out to eat, these boneless BBQ wings were good but not what the baby was craving. I h
Broken Promises Can We Not
The first night in LA We just chilled in the hotel which was fine with me. Most of the afternoon had been spent watching tv with a good majority of the time the tv watching Seth. It didn't really bother me, I had finally got my rest and for the first time in a while wasn't overly sleepy.When Seth did wake up he ran out and grabbed us some burgers and Cajun fries. He was in a playful mood and as much as he aggravated me I couldn't stay mad at him. It seemed that was usually the case between us. He constantly found new ways to aggravate me or piss me off but he could smile at me with his goofy ass grin and I found myself smiling right back at him. It drove me crazy but I loved him.The next morning he had left early, when I woke up I ordered breakfast and took a quick shower before it arrived. As I sat and ate I decided to give Brooke a call. She surprised me for picking up after only one ring. I grew a little suspicious when she told me she was in LA. I had thought for s
