BECCA POV
"Water?" Jacob asked me as we walk into the kitchen and I nod. He goes to fill up two glasses with water and then gives me one. "Want to make dinner or you're still full from the lunch?" He asked again and I quirk a brow.
"You're asking so many questions" I chuckle and he smiled, taking my hand.
"I just want you to be comfortable babe" he lands a kiss on both my cheeks before pulling away to stare at me. "I love you, I want you to be happy"
"I am happy, so stop googling me" I grin before walking away, a skip to my step. Why wo
BECCA POV"Six or seven weeks," Doctor Julie said and my hand fists involuntarily. I'm pregnant, that's good news, right? I mean Jacob said he wants to marry me and he doesn't fail to tell me how much he loves me every single day. Baby news won't be a problem for him, right? I glare at the woman in front of me, a smile on her face but then it fades. "Are you ok miss, should I check your temperature?""I'm fine" I wave my hands in front of me. Holy shit I'm pregnant. I need to tell Bailey right away, and maybe my mom. But it's how to handle Jacob that's the problem. Not all men are ecstatic about the news of a baby."Would you like to see it?" I stare at her confused. "The embryo?"Oh! I nod trying to offer her a small smile but I think it comes out miserably.I lay on a chair in a hospital gown as Doctor Julie ran the ultrasound test. I keep my ey
BECCA POV"I'm pregnant" I voice out and he stops chewing. "I'm... pregnant" I repeat like he didn't hear me the first time. I wait for a reaction from him. None. "The doctor said I'm six or seven weeks along" I sigh. "Please say something"He frowns, setting his fork down and my heart aches for what he's going to do next."And you weren't going to tell me?" He asked in a very deep voice that sounded dangerous, well not dangerous but more like angry."I was. I was going to tell you""I probed you to tell me Becca or you wouldn't have! Why?" His voice becomes calm at the last part and I let out a deep sigh."I...wasn't ready to see you disappointed in me or something like that" a look of disbelief cast on his face when I said that and I bite my bottom lip."Jesus!" He lets out a deep sigh, moving his head from side to side.
BECCA POVI decided to head home and grab lunch before going back to the hospital. I was super hungry and I didn't know how long Bail's labor was going to last and I didn't see the harm. Thankfully, Ernest was there to drive me home or I would've taken the cab.I felt at ease when we pull into Jacob's apartment building and then he drives us to the parking lot, it's like a building secure, few cars are parked there and there's no one there. I turn to Ernest who was already staring at me."Thanks for the ride" I smile at him."You're welcome Becca" He replied. "Is Jacob in?""Um...no." I shrug.I watch different emotions cross his face before he speaks up. "What's it about him that you like so much?" He then asked and I let out a puff of breath, I cross my arms."
JACOB POVJeff is waiting outside the hospital when I step out and he's alone. I stuff my hands in my pocket as I try to maintain my cool steps. "Any news on Ernest yet?""No sir, my men are still trying to track him. Luckily for us, the security camera in the parking lot covered his plate number""That's good" I mutter under my breath. "Also, did you know the guy was sick in the head?""No, Where did you hear this?" He pulls out his jotter to take down anything I'm about to say."Reid, one of Becca's friend just told me""Uh, huh" Jeff used the tip of his pen to scratch his chin. "We'll have to interrogate Miss Nikki Bardot. You mentioned they were siblings before now?""Yes, so surely she knows something"
BECCA POVApplying a fiery red lipstick, I giggled before walking to the door. I let my hair down and shook my head so my hair looked wild then I stepped out of the bathroom with a smug smile on my face, hoping it comes out seductive. I've wanted to do this for a very long time now, but we've had so much drama going on for us this whole time.Jacob's jaw dropped when he saw me. "Holy fuck!"I grin wickedly before walking to him but I evade his touch and it made him frown. Here comes the fun part. I produce one of his ties from my hand and waved it in front of him. He smirked."You want me to tie you?" He asked and I smile shaking my head."No, I'm going to restrict you," I say and his eyes widen with surprise and amusement."Oh, ok"He was amused. Placing both my palms against his chest, I push him toward the bed, giggling
I eye jack when I step into the mansion. He's playing with Eric on the counter and he smiles when he sees me. Eric runs to give me a hug shouting uncle Jacob! I let go of Becca's hand momentarily to hold his small frame. Jones rushed down the stairs when he sees me and I try to carry them both in my arms.Michelle strides to Jack who's still staring at me, a smile on his face. "Hi, nice to see you again" He greets me and I nod my head formally. Mich throws me a glance and I manage to smile at Jack, she gives me a thumbs up."This is Becca. Jacobs girlfriend" Mich introduced and I frowned because I was going to do that just now."Fiance" I correct her before pulling Becca to me and kissing her cheeks softly."Nice to meet you, Jack," Becca said to Jack and they shook hands, I secretly pull Becca back to me."So you're getting mar
JACOB POVBecca gripped my shirt with so much strength that I didn't know she possessed it as she pulled me away from Henry. Mitch and Jack were standing by the entrance of the garden now wondering what the whole fuss and scream were about."Jacob! What the fuck is wrong with you?" Becca thundered and I've never seen her so angry my entire life. It had me wondering what I did wrong.Henry clutched his chin as he gets up from the ground, glaring at me. "What the hell was that for man" he groaned."You were trying to make a pass at my girl" I grit my teeth and Becca flings her hands up in the air with utter annoyance."That's it! I'm done with you doing this" She muttered to herself before trying to walk out of the garden but I grab her hand pulling her to me."Where are you going?""Inside because I don't
JACOB POVI woke up to an empty bed this morning and it felt so weird because I'm used to waking up with Becca in my arms, except when she needs to hurry to work early but now I just know she's trying to get away from me. I don't know how else I can prove to her that I'm sorry.I'm contemplating what to do with myself when the alarm I set reminds me to start getting ready for the wedding. I stretch, turning it off and In time, getting a message from Michelle asking me to please check on the boys and maybe Jack. Why would I check on Jack? I stroll out of my given room to the boys' room to see they were still in bed so I decided to call Mich."Hey Whatsup," she says when she picks."They're still in bed" I inform her."Ok. I hired a nanny for today and she would be coming over soon to tend to them. I place their clothes on a different hange
BECCA POV Sitting by the beach with smiles on my face, I watch as Jacob played with our one year plus baby boy, Jasper in his arms. He was sitting a little bit away from me and building little sand statues. Yes, my life was at its happiest now and I love moments like this. After we had Jasper, four months later we had our wedding just our family and friends in the backyard of our mansion. We waited until Jasper was a year and strong enough so we could go on our first family vacation. Now we're here in the Turks and Caicos. It's been a year since Jacob moved to NY and even for himself, an office sited there. Indeed this one year has been the best of my life "Mama..." Jasper gurgled in front of me snapping me out of my haze. He's standing in front of me, a small smile on his face before Jacob sweeps him off his feet making him laugh hard. "This little
Three Months LaterBECCA POV"Wow, you look, amazing!" Reid complimented me immediately I step out of the dressing room. We're in Milan for the fashion show. The one I was invited for and I'm so excited to show off my new designs. The other ones are being displayed by models right now as we speak."Thanks""Wait till Jacob sees you in it, he'd swoon" Reid chuckled and I smile. The two had grown fondly with each other and it's so cute when I see them talking sometimes. Speaking of Jacob, he came with me to Milan and we're lodging at a hotel just close to here. My heart skips a little bit as insecurities begin to creep in. I face Reid."Are you sure the gowns are beautiful? I mean... people might not like them""Who gives a fuck what people think? Your maternity designs are way awesome. And
BECCA POVI take their talk as an advantage to grab a nearby chair, walking to Ernest, I hit him on the head and he rolled off Jacob but quickly grabs the gun pointing it at Jacob again. Jacob spit out blood before struggling to his feet, I try to run into his arms but Ernest points the gun at me. "Stay where you are" he threatened before pointing at Jacob again. "I always get what I want," He smirked and his hands settle on the trigger.My heart skips a bit when I see he's going to shoot Jacob and without thinking, I run in front of them going to hug Jacob.Bang! Bang!I wait for the pain to come, for the tragic scream or something... anything...but there was nothing. I didn't feel any pain. What happened? I feel Jacob's arms go round my waist as we both crumple to the floor and I let out a sob.Lights flashed outside the garage
JACOB POVUnlocking my car, I go straight to the trunk getting out all the bags. I can't even remember what we bought, but Becca kept throwing things into the basket and I let her because she was smiling all through which made me happy.I shut my trunk and reached in to get her cinnamon when the garage goes pitch black. Pausing, I take my head out of the car to stare around me but I couldn't see shit. What the fuck?! Then I quickly remember Becca and I became worried to know if she was ok on her own. Digging out my phone from my pocket, I dial her number countless times but she doesn't pick, and Fuck I panic like hell!Dumping all the grocery bags back in the car, I hurry to the elevator but then groaned out in frustration! The power went out so the elevators won't work. So I take the emergency stairs, jogging up as fast I can until I get to my door, and I'm a pa
BECCA POVI stare at myself in the mirror, wearing a casual silk satin slip dress. It's been a week since we came back from Baltimore for Michelle's wedding. A lot had happened since then. Jeff called and said they finally tracked Ernest's car and it was parked by the side of the road, my guess is he abandoned it because he knew he would be followed. That's progress I guess, tracking his car. Soon, I hope they find him too.Secondly, Miranda Joe called me. You know, the big fashion designer and goddess in the industry. It was an email at first reminding me of the show where I get to display my dresses so I called her back asking her when? And she said the fashion show was in four months. So I popped the news to her telling her I was pregnant and she congratulated me."I guess when I'll be seeing you next you'll be heavily pregnant then," Miranda said."Th
BECCA POVMy heart skipped one-two-three times when I see Jacob in his maroon suit, his hair perfectly combed and a small smile on his face. He's so handsome and a gorgeous man I feel suddenly blessed to have a man like him in my life. And the expression on his face as he runs his eyes up and down my body is priceless.The nervousness I was feeling a while back is gone now and I walk up to the alter, a smile on my face but I try to hide it. Henry left my hand and goes to stand next to Jack while I wait for Michelle to show up. I stare at Jacob again in the crowd to find he's already staring at me. Fuck me! He looks even more gorgeous now than a minute ago.The music changes for Michelle and everyone stands. She's so pretty and her smile light up the whole room as she walks toward us, her hand round her dad's arms. I suddenly feel sad knowing my dad would
