::Strange Dreams::

::Ellanae’s P.O.V:

My eyes snapped open as soon as I heard the baby cry and I sighed as I dragged myself out my bed and over to the baby’s crib.

“Why are you crying so much sweetheart?” I asked as I picked the baby up out the crib.

I began walking around the room as I rocked the baby back and forth.

My eyes fell on the now empty bed.

“Where’s your daddy?” I asked as I continued rocking.

The cries gradually got softer till there was now a sleeping baby in my arms.

As I placed the baby back down in the crib, there was a loud sound, almost as if a door had been slammed.

The cries began again, louder than before and I blew my hair out my face.

Parenthood is not getting any easier.

“Ellanae?”

“I’m upstairs!” I shouted as I took the baby back out the crib.

I walked out the room and downstairs to see Jacob raiding the fridge.

He took a can of mountain dew out and closed the fridge.

That’s when he saw me and smiled as he walked over and kissed me on my cheek before kissing the baby on its forehead.

“I’m sorry, I had to run out for some hours.”

“It’s cool,” I said walking into the living room.

Jacob walked behind me and took the baby out my arms and began rocking his arms.

I took the advantage and I dropped back on the couch so I could catch up on some well-deserved sleep.

“You’re falling asleep Mi amor.”

“I’m aware.” I mumbled.

“So, are you excited to get married in what,  A month?”

“I am.”

“You don’t seem so, People I know getting married in less than two months seem all over the place.”

“Shanelle said I could take a day off today and sleep and she’d take care of the flower arrangements today.”

“Who knew Shanelle would end up as the perfect wedding planner.”

“I did. You doubt my friends abilities.”

“Did you get onto your mom?”

“Yeah, She doesn’t want to be within miles of daddy, but she said she’d suck it up just for the wedding.”

“Their divorce was harsh.”

“I know. It still makes me feel like it was my fault.”

“It’s not your fault Ellanae, they couldn’t settle their differences and that’s where they ended up.”

“You better not be marrying me to divorce me after all those years.”

“Our child won’t be having one at 17 anyway so there won’t be any reason for us to be upset.”

“Obviously.”

"And I love you too much to even imagine you not wanting to be Mrs. Jacob Perez anymore."

"Aww jake."

Jacob chuckled and lowered the volume on the TV.

The music in the background was slowly helping me fall asleep.
