Where Is My Happy Ending

Chapter 16

“Are you sure this is what you want to do?” Jack asked me as we waited outside the police department.

“Yes I’m sure. I need to do this. For my safety and for Landon’s safety.” I said and me rubbed my arm.

“If you’re sure then let’s go.” he said, and then we walked inside.

“Can I help you?” the officer asked me and Jack.

“Hi, I came here to fill out a restraining order against my ex-fiancée.” I said and he nodded.

“Can you tell me why?” he asked me as he searched for a report.

“Well we split because he was a cheater and a gambler, but when we did split I was pregnant with twins, and then one of them died, and he blamed me for it. Then I got a job and he came in with his fiancée and she was pregnant and then at the wedding her water broke, so I helped her. Then just yesterday he came in for the photo’s and assaulted me, and told me he would be back.” I said and he just nodded.

“Okay. Fill this out for me, and we will look into it.” he said and I grabbed the form, and started filling it out.

<><><><>That night<><><><>

“Do you think the order will go through?” I asked Jack as we lay in bed that night.

“I hope so. I’m tired of him trying to go you and Landon back. I just got you and now he wants you back, and I’m not going to stand for it.” he said and I sat up on my elbows and looked at him.

“Is that all I am, is a piece of property?” I asked him accusingly.

“No no no, its just that I love you and have for a while and when you left it was like a little piece of my heart left too.” he said and sat up too.

“Well it’s not my fault that you married Olivia at 18, when I begged you not to. So it is your fault that I left. All you had to do was fight for me. I was waiting for you to, but you never did and that angered me. Was I not worth the fight?” I asked he and got up.

“No, you were, but I was just too young and naive to realize what I had before it left.” he said and got up too. I grabbed my jacket and he followed me into Landon’s room.

“Where are you going?” he asked me, grabbing my hand.

“To Jenna’s. I really need some alone time right now. I’ll call you tomorrow.” I said and put Landon’s coat on him and walked outside and left.

Five minutes later I turned the car around, and sped home. I grabbed Landon out of the back seat, and ran inside. As soon as I opened the door, Jack embraced me in a hug. I put my head in the crook of his neck and sighed.

“I’m sorry Jack.” I whispered and put Landon down and he waddled over to the couch and sat down in front of it.

“I’m the one that should be sorry. You are more than a piece of property to me Kay. I love you know that right? I would never treat you like David did I promise, and if I ever break that promise, you have permission to royally kick my ass all the was to Arkansas.” he said and I laughed.

“I’m sorry. I’ve just been really emotional and all. And then the stuff with David, and then me being pregnant again is not helping.” I said and he laughed and then stopped.

“Can you repeat that last sentence again for me.” he asked and I smiled.

“I’m pregnant.”
