Forever Yours

Chapter 6

Two weeks later

"Jackson! Are you coming or not? I'm gonna be late!" Vanessa yelled upstairs as she held a crying Luna.
"I'm coming!" He said as he came down the stairs.
"Shh, Luna." She rocked her from side to side.
"Give me her." She handed Jackson Luna and she instantly stopped crying.
"I think she's teething." Vanessa commented as they made they're way out the door.
They hopped out the car and headed into LivingDoll Co., which was Vanessa's clothing line. It was an online business and they were now trying to bring it to stores.
She bought Jackson and Luna along because there was a meeting involving these said stores and she wanted her family there for support.
"Hello, Mr. Raines. How are you?" They did air kisses to each other cheeks.
"I'm fine, darling. Is this the family?"
"Yes, this is Jackson, my husband, and our daughter Luna. Who is kinda cranky today."
Mr. Raines shook Jackson's hand before waving at Luna who gave no reaction.
"So, Vanessa, I have great news and not so great news." He said as he took at seat and Vanessa did the same.
"Ok, let me hear it."
"The stores are opening, darling, but instead of getting them their own boutiques in LA, New York, and Miami, like you wanted, they are opening up in malls in New Jersey, Atlanta, and Texas."
Vanessa pouted, but put it aside, "you know what? It's okay. Atlanta is a big city and Jersey and Texas are big states, so it's okay. We're just getting started anyway. The online business is going great, so we're good."
Vanessa, Jackson, and Luna left LivingDoll Co. and headed back home. They got stuck in traffic on their way back, but they should have known better than to take the streets during rush hour.
"You know, I'm really proud of you." Jackson said as he kept his eyes on the road.
"Thank you, I'm proud of myself too." She chuckled.
"Soon, LivingDoll Co. is gonna be a worldwide brand. So many designers are gonna want to work with you, and you're gonna be traveling like crazy, just living your dream."
"We shall hope and pray."
They stayed in silence for a moment until Vanessa started to groan and held onto her stomach.
"What's wrong?" Jackson asked.
"I don't know, but it hurts." She whined.
"Is it cramps?"
"Feels like it, but like 100 times worst." She cried and felt liquid come out of her vagina.
She put her hands down there to see and when she pulled her hand back up, it was covered it blood.
Her and Jackson looked at it in shocked.
"Is that period blood?" Jackson asked disgust.
She shook her head, "I had mine at the beginning of the month."
"We need to get you to the hospital."
Jackson drove to the hospital as fast as he could. He told the nurses at the front desk what happened and they led her to a room.
The doctor came in shortly after and took her blood and everything else before leaving them alone.
"What do you is wrong with me?" Vanessa mumbled as she looked at Jackson who was holding a sleeping Luna.
"I don't know, baby. Whatever is hopefully it isn't deadly or contagious."
Vanessa looked at him with a blank expression, not really finding his joke funny.
"Sorry, just tryna lighten the mood."
"I was bleeding from my vagina excessively. Now is not the time."
The doctor came is shortly after with a look of sorrow on his face.
"What's wrong, doctor? Am I dying?" She asked dramatically.
"You're not dying, Mrs. Wang."
"Then What's wrong?"
"You had a miscarriage."
"I'm sorry what?" Jackson spoke.
"You were pregnant and you lost it."
Vanessa zoned out and soon she couldn't hear anything. She was pregnant? Her mind was going so many places. She didn't even know. She didn't even get the chance to enjoy he news of actually hearing she was pregnant, but instead she heard the news that she lost her baby.
The next thing she knew was that she was in her room, in another set of clothes, with Jackson laying beside her.
"What time is it?" Her voice was barely above a whisper.
Jackson turned around and grabbed his phone, checking the time before locking it again.
"It's three in the morning." His voice was groggy, it kinda sounded like he was crying.
Jackson reached out to her, but Vanessa turned away from him.
"Talk to me." He whispered from behind her.
"No, Jack."
He took a deep breath and sat up against the headboard.
"The doctor gave you some pills to take, he said you might need them."
Vanessa ignored him, not really in the mood to talk to him. She felt like it was her fault this happened, if she wasn't so stressed maybe her baby would still be alive.
Something clicked in her mind, she was only stressed because of what went down between her and Jackson. Technically it was his fault she thought.
If Jackson wasn't such a dickhead and trying to get with people's sisters, none of this would have happened. She got angry. Vanessa was angry because Jackson KILLED HER BABY!
"It's your fault." She said.
"What?"
"It's your fault I lost the baby."
"Vanessa, what are you talking about?"
She sat up and got out of bed, "It's your fault, Jackson! You made me so stressed that I lost a baby!"
"I didn't do anything! It's nobodies fault." He also got out of bed and made his way over to her, she took a step back.
"You're wrong, you did this Jackson. The whole situation with you and my sister stressed me out so much, that I lost my child." She said tearing up.
"That was my child too."
What Jackson didn't know and neither did Vanessa was that there was a chance that Jackson wasn't the father.
The day of the charity event, she and Jb snuck off and did the dirty deed. It was a one time thing and she thought he used a condom, but obviously that wasn't the case.
"It doesn't matter anyway. It's dead," She said through her teeth, "and it's all because of you."
"Blame me if you want. If that's what you need to cope through this than go ahead."
"I hate you." She sobbed as she went into the bathroom.
Jackson took a seat on the bed and ran a hand down his face. He couldn't believe that Vanessa was pregnant and they had lost the baby.
He couldn't believe that she was blaming the lost of their child on him. So many things were going through his mind right now that he didn't even hear her come back in the room.
She got back in the bed, without saying a word to him. They didn't speak to each other for the rest of the night and to think that things were starting to go well for them.
