Quintessence of dust
I'm at the front desk with Haleh finishing our daily bitch todays subject been Albright so Moriss had a few things to say on the matter as Haleh leaves i carry on stuffing myself with ice cream.
"What are you still doing here." Moriss asks
"My fridge is empty at home and i was hungry wanna bite" I'm in a nice mood i guess.
"Didn't i see you eating one of those twenty minutes ago." so what
"This is my third" i say stuffing more into my face.
"Third? what are you pregnant." oh crap i look at him trying to laugh it off
"what.... what are you talking about" i answer as i walk away.
"Oh my god you are." he points his finger at me as i throw in the trash
"your crazy" i try and walk away but he is jumping around like a kid in a candy shop.
"You are." "No" keep walking.
"You are totally pregnant." i can't take much more of this someone could hear I'll play him at his own game
"so what your in love with Albright" ha see how he likes that!
"I am not." He kinda looks shocked
"oh Moriss come on" we all know.
"You shut up." I will if you will
"you shut up too." Pratt starts to walk over as Moriss finishes.
"You shut up first." oh dang i hope he never heard.
"Shut up about what?" he just stands looking at us waiting for one of us to answer.
"Nothing." Well done Moriss your not so dumb after all
"nothing" i say as i walk away giving Moriss my dead stare.
I'm on my way home well i say home i mean Lukas I'm eating another ice cream i can't help it with these and pop tarts i can't win this baby hates me i swear I'm going to be so over weight by the time i give birth.
As i put my key in the lock i here Luka swear well i think he did he's speaking Croatian he has been doing that a lot lately i mean speaking Croatian not swearing i laugh at myself as i walk into the kitchen to find something else to eat.
"Hey Princess how was work?" well hello hunk
"it was OK you know same old same old sick people some old some young and yeah Moriss knows I'm Pregnant" i had to tell him at some point i guess.
"What how i thought you wanted to keep it between us for now." he was right i did its nobody's business but ours
"Yeah i know i did..do but whats done is done and we were going to have to do it at some point he just kinda worked it out." because i was stuffing myself.
"How?" how did i know he was going to ask me that
"i was eating ice cream" i put my head in the fridge hoping he will stop at that.
"How does eating ice cream tell someone your pregnant?" ha i knew it
"i had three" i say my head still in the door he has been so over protective lately even more so about what I'm eating.
"Three Abby three is really not good do you know how many calories are in those little ice cream bars." i jump out of the fridge to defend myself
"no but i bet your gonna tell me" maybe a little to well.
"I just think you should watch what you eat for the baby's sake." is he saying i don't have the baby's best interests at heart i can't help but fly off at him
" Well don't blame me it did take both of us to screw to make it Luka not just me, how dare you say I'm only thinking of me all i have done for months is think about this baby inside me" i throw the bread i had picked up and storm into the bathroom slamming the door shut.
"Abby baby please unlock the door." I hear him at the door i turn the tap on to hide the sound of me crying. I can't talk to him right now these damn hormones make me over react.
"Is this what it comes back to." i hear him rest his back on the door i move to sit on the floor as he carries on talking.
"You in the bathroom crying running the taps hoping i don't hear you." i thought he never heard.
"I thought we got past that i thought we were stronger then that now i thought you knew you could trust me." I do trust you luka.
" We have come so far Abby from the life we once had together yeah it was great and i wouldn't change that for the world us splitting up was right back then hell i wouldn't even change you been with him." i know he means carter.
" Us splitting up made us who we are now and what we can have and i thank him for that he gave me you back the day he found me in Africa." i hear him get up and start to walk away i jump up and unlock the door. He stands still not turning around
"I'm sorry" i tell him tears running down my face i must look mess he turns around holding his arms out.
"Promises me no more locks." i run into his arms trying to control the river of tears
" i promise" he kisses me not bothering to make me feel better he simply kisses my forehead and holds me knowing i need a good cry every now and then. I hold onto him knowing i can run to him now were not the same people we once were and i don't need to hide.
