[SUMMARY: Your older brother works for Pablo, Javier gets close to you to get information. He unexpectedly falls for you and gets you pregnant without telling you who he truly is, only becoming more protective of you.]
âYouâre pregnant. Iâm not letting you out of my sight.â
Angst, violence
Being the younger sister of a man who worked closely with Pablo bought a life of secrecy. You were watched like a hawk on everything you did and your brother Jose wasnât nice about it. Until the day came that you met a man, what was suppose to be one encounter, turned into feelings that grew deeply on both sides. Javier and you secretly saw each other in the night at a motel as much as you were able to. You told him you didnât want your brother seeing you around with a man yet you didnât explain the true reason as to whyâŚ.although you didnât have to. Something you didnât know was that Javi was a DEA agent. He knew more about you than you were aware of, and what was meant to be a source to get an inside look at Pabloâs world was now a trap for Javi, as he had unexpectedly fallen for you.
Things slowly became more complicated when you realized you were falling for this man. There was no way you two could truly be together, your brother didnt trust anyone being apart of what he was apart of he and treated you like a child. You knew this could only get Javi killed. Things only took a turn for the worse when you realized your period was late. Your heart sunk at the thought of a pregnancy,how were you suppose to go to through with this? How were you suppose to tell Javi?
Maybe it was best you didnt.
The next day you met with Javier with the mindset of that being the last time you would see him, pregnant with his child or not.
Opening the door to your motel room, Javi rushed in pulling you against him as he kissed your neck.
âI missed you babyâ
âJavi..â you whispered as he pushed you against the wall. His hands moving up your waist as his lips covered yours, it was hard to deny his kisses but you had to.
âJavi-â you turned your face away feeling his lips softly against your cheek.
âWhatâs wrong?â He asked in a low voice. You struggled to fight back tears as you pressed your lips together before turning back to him.
âJaviâŚ.IâŚI donât think we should see each other anymoreâŚâ his expression quickly changing, your words feeling like a physical hit to his chest.
âWhat are you talking about?â
âWe canât be togetherâŚyou know that..â you looked up at him as he raised a brow. He wondered if something had happened with your brother to make you now say this.
Something he wasnât suppose to know.
âWhereâs this coming from?â He asked in a serious tone, you looked away.
âItâs just the truth, it always has been..I told you how my brother is and this has gone on long enough-â you moved away from him grabbing your purse.
âWhere are you going?â He continued, following behind as you moved quickly.
âI have to go, I have to be somewhere-â
âWhere? What the hells going on?â You could hear the frustration in his voice but you couldnât allow it to let you give in. From what you knew Javi had no idea who your brother was and you wanted to keep it that way. It was impossible to have a relationship let alone a child with anyone with the life you lived.
âMaybe someday I can explain...â Without giving him a chance you quickly left with tears falling from your eyes as you rushed downstairs. Javi cursed at himself before rushing out into his car catching you getting into a cab. Slowly and discreetly he followed you before realizing you pulled up to a doctors office. Parking a block away he waited for you as you walked inside and leaned back in his chair.
About an hour later he caught you walking out making him sit up in his seat. He noticed you looked more uspet than you originally were and furrowed his eyebrows slowly following as you walked.
The doctor had just confirmed you were pregnant.
More than the hurt you felt about feeling like you could never tell Javi, you were afraid.
Your brother was not a nice man and if he found out you were pregnant you were sure he would find out who it was and kill them.
âWhat the hells going on baby?â Javier whispered to himself as he watched you quickly walk off and turn the corner.
Javier drove back to the station as Murphy looked up at him with raised brows.
âAnything new from your source?â He smirked as Javier remained serious and sat down across from him.
âSomething wrong?â Murphy leaned forward noticing Javier was actually upset.
âWhatâs new on Jose?â Javier asked changing the subject.
âThatâs something I thought you would know? Or are you too busy fucking his sister?â Murphy laughed before realizing Javier wasnât finding anything funny. Not saying a word he left to the back room to listen over the conversations that were had in your home with the phones that were tapped.
The sound of your voice instantly playing on those tapes, he could hear the fear in you as you spoke to your friend Jenny.
âI donât know what to do, Jenny. I canât tell him-â
âYou have to tell him.â Your friend could be heard on the other end as Javier listened closely.
âMy brotherâŚmy brother will kill him, you donât know how dangerous Jose can be.â You explained in a shaky voice.
âHeâs never to know that Iâam pregnant, promise me-â you begged not knowing Javier heard you loud and clear. In shock he sat up staring blankly at the cassette player. Repeatedly rewinding the clip of you saying you were pregnant, releasing smoke from his mouth as his cigarette dangled between his fingers. He couldnât believe what he was hearing.
âJesus Christ..â he whispered realizing the danger he had put you in. If your brother found out you were having any kind of a relationship with a DEA agentâŚ.you would be dead. Javier wanted to get you the hell out of there. Continuing the recording he listened carefully to what else was said.
âIâll be at the bar tonight working, I should be home around 3.â You continued with a sigh.
âYou should be careful in that place, you know how those men can be there.â Your friend responded.
âYeah well I have to work. Iâll see you tomorrow.â
âFucking shit.â Javier slammed the tape off and quickly paced out the room.
That night Javier showed up at your job, he watched you from afar as you served a group of people in front of you. He watched as a man approached you trying to create conversation with you barely looking up at him. Your mind seemed elsewhere.
âHey lady, Iâm talking to you!â The man yelled making you look up as he shook his glass in your face before a smile slowly spread on his lips.
âThere she isâ the man grinned as Javier took a step closer, the man seemed familiar to him.
âLet us get 5 tequila shots, you bring it to our table over there and weâll give you something nice.â The man winked at you as Javier looked back at the table he was pointing at, he knew those men. These men were rivals against Pabloâs cartel and they mustâve known your brother worked for him.
You were a target.
âIâll be right with you,â you assured the man with a smile realizing you needed to go to the back for more ice from the fridge. The man sat down with his men as you made your way to the back, Javier quickly moved through the crowd rushing to get to you before you could come back out. Just as you were about to come out Javi grabbed you by your arm making you gasp.
âJavi!â You looked at him confused as he looked around pulling you out the back door.
âWhere are we going?! What are you doing?!â
He wouldnât respond, simply pulling you to his car.
âWhat the hell are you doing?!â You pulled your arm back.
âGet in the car. Now.â He spoke low yet sternly.
âNo,Iâm in the middle of my damn shift.â You went to walk around him but he stopped you. All he could think of that moment was that you were pregnant. Pregnant and afraid, too afraid to even tell him and all he wanted to do was protect you.
âGet out of my way, Javi.â You looked up at him as he refused to stand out of your way.
âIm not letting you go back in there, baby.â
âAnd who the hell are you to say?!â Once again trying to walk around him he stopped you with his words.
âTheyâre here for your brother.â He finally blurt out making you stop in your tracks.
âWhat do you mean?â You looked at him confused, what did he know of your brother?
He didnât say a word and he didnât have to. The look on his face said enough for you, as many questions as you may have had, you knew you had to move fast. Quickly you followed him out to his car and sat beside him as he drove off.
Looking around the motel parking lot Javier walked you to the room. You rushed inside pacing around the room as he closed the blinds and locked the door.
âHow did you know those men were there for my brother?â You asked crossing your arm. Standing across from you with his hands on his hips he looked away.
âThereâs a lot of things you donât know, sweetheart.â
âThen tell me! What the hell do you know of my brother?!â You yelled at him walking up to his face.
âI know your brother doesnât protect you the way he should.â He looked you straight in your eyes. His words making you take one step back, you raised a brow.
âWhat are you saying?â He looked down at you pressing his lips together, his silence only frustrating you more.
âDammit Javi-â you suddenly took a step back placing your hand over your mouth. The sudden feel of nausea creeping through your stomach like you had never felt before, Javier took a step forward raising a brow.
âWhatâs wrong?â
You quickly turned away only to be hit with a wave of dizziness, you leaned on the table beside you trying to balance yourself until you felt Javierâs hand around your waist. Taking a deep breath you stood still taking a sip of water he gave you from a bottle. Not looking up at him you didnt realize the concern he had in his eyes. The danger you were in, him knowing you were pregnant and not knowing what the hell that meant for either of you.
âHow far long are you?â He finally blurt out low, his question making your eyes practically bulge.
He knew.
âWhat?â You looked up at him confused.
âWhen were you gonna tell me? Or were you planning on never telling me?â You didnât understand how he could have possibly known, who couldâve told him.
âJaviâŚI-â just as you were to explain a loud bang was heard at the front door making you jump.
You were followed.
You gasped as Javier quickly pulled you to the back toward the bathroom as you looked behind and noticed the door knob begin to move.
âThis way!â Javier opened the bathroom window carried you up and quickly followed behind. You could hear men on the other side as Javi pulled you up by your arm practically dragging you to his car.
They hadnât noticed a thing yet.
âWhere do we go?â You asked in a panic as Javier quickly got in and began to drive off just as gun shots went off. The side view mirror getting shot at, you screamed covering your ears ducking down as he stepped on the gas harder and sped off.
âYou ok?!â He yelled loudly not taking his eyes off the road, unexpectedly reaching his hand to your stomach. A conversation that was yet to be finished.
âYes, Iâm fine..â you realized where he placed his hand and looked over at him. Things calmed down as he adjusted himself in his seat and pulled away, grabbing the steering wheel he continued to drive.
Once he was sure he lost them, the rest of the drive was silent. Who the hell was he, and what the hell was this all about?
âWho are you?â You finally whispered.
âItâs better you donât know-â
âLike hell it is!â You screamed slamming the door.
âYou know who my brother is, you knew those men were targeting meâŚ.you know that Iâm pregnant, you obviously have been watching, oh God- youâre a copâ you looked at him shocked as he continued to drive.
âIs that what this was?â You began to laugh sarcastically.
âI was your little informant-â
âNo.â He quickly responded staring straight ahead.
âThatâs exactly what this was, Iâm so stupid..â you shook your head.
âThatâs probably why these men are after me and if my brother finds out-â
âNobody is gonna do anything to you, I wonât allow it.â Javier snapped your way.
âTake me home.â Your tone was blunt as your mind raced.
âIâm not taking you home, you donât know where those men can follow you to. Not to mention-â he looked your way with a hesitant look.
âYouâre pregnant. Iâm not letting you out of my sight.â As much as he wanted to keep you safe, this wasnât the way.
âTake me home, Javi please, I know my brother⌠he will suspect something. He will find out something..please.â You turned to him with worried eyes. If it was up to him he would never leave your side but he knew you wouldnât give in. He sighed and drove you to your brothers home a few blocks away, just as you were about to get out he grabbed your arm but you snatched it away. You had nothing to say to him, he knew you would be upset with him and all he wanted was to explain himself. Without saying a word you walked out and slammed the door as he watched you walk off into the distance, he of course kept close by.
The next day Javier walked into the station with Murphy rushing towards him.
âThey spotted Escobar-â
âWhere?!â Javier turned back following him out taking the piece of paper that Murphy handed him, stopping in his tracks he realized it was your home address. His stomach turned at the thought of you in the dead center of danger. What the hell was he doing there?
âThis has to be a set up.â Javier whispered running beside Murphy.
âWell, only one way to tell.â
Sitting in a truck everyone gathered around cameras watching as one was perfectly giving the cops the view of you surrounded by Escobars men in your living room.
âWhat the hell are they doing?â Javier asked making Murphy look over at him, he could see the concern on his partners face.
âThereâs her brother-â one of the men pointed at the camera as he entered the room and suddenly yanked you up by your arm.
âWho have you been talking to huh?â Your brother yelled angrily in your face as Javi watched, his heart racing with a million thoughts running through.
âI havenât spoken to anyone Jose, I promise. I-â
âDonât lie to me!â He roared angrily making Javier begin to pace back and fourth with his hands on his hips.
âWeâve gotta get her out of there,â he stopped and leaned his hand on the table watching anxiously.
âNo, we can get something out of this. Escobar never showed up but maybe theyâll give us where he is-â
âOr maybe weâll get her killed.â
âJose please, you know me, you know I donât talk to anyone!â
âThen what the hell is this?!â He slammed a paper down on the table before you, a photo of you coming out of the doctors office where you had found out you were pregnant.
âI-â
âYou what?!â He slammed his hand on the picture making you jump.
âShit..â Javier whispered out of breath.
âJose please-â before you could finish your brother unexpectedly smacked you knocking you off the chair. Javierâs clenched his jaw ready to run out of the truck before he felt Murphys hand on his arm holding him back.
âSon of a bitch..â he bit his lip angrily watching as you backed away from Jose while still on the ground. He knew the terror you mustâve felt, he didnât give a shit who said what, he wasnât going to risk anything happening to you.
âIâm going in.â Javier ran out making everyone turn to him.
âPena! No!â
Javier bust through the doors with back up making everyone around you jump and move quickly. Most running out though the windows as you flinched staying down before looking up and realizing one of the cops was Javi. You froze with your lips parted as chaos erupted around you, he ran towards you and quickly lifted you up pulling your arms behind you.
âWhat are you doing?!â You asked through shock and tears.
âIâm getting you out of here,â he whispered discreetly against your ear before pulling you back against him and placing cuffs on your wrists.
âWhat the hell did you do, you little bitch!â Your brother yelled as he was placed in handcuffs before Javier pulled you away.
Standing alone in an interrogation room you, your thoughts were all over the place. This whole time you were dealing with a DEA agent.
You felt used, you felt like a fool.
A tear rolling down your cheek until you heard the door open you quickly wiped it away. In walked Javi silently closing the door behind him. You refused to look at him, he knew you were upset with him but that didnât stop him.
Standing right before you, you looked to the side ignoring his presence until you he took a step closer and you felt his hand gently take hold of your face as he took a close look at the mark your brother left you.
âGet off of me,â you whispered abruptly pulling your face away.
âListen to me-â
âDonât. I donât want to speak to you.â
âWell Iâm not going anywhere.â He responded bluntly as he stood close looking down at you.
âIâm not the bad guy here-â
âYouâre all liars!â You unexpectedly screamed turning his way.
âYou couldâve gotten me killed! My brother or anyone else couldâve thought I was helping the police and they wouldâve killed me!â You began to hit his chest until he caught your arms stopping you.
âI wasnât going to let that happenâ he shook you trying to snap you out of it.
âOh please, Javi. You donât know them. And you and Jose wanted to use me in your own way-â
âYour brother did anything but protect you, and Iâm sorry about that baby I really am. But Iâm not him, I wasnât going to let anything happen to you and especially this baby.â His words catching you off guard and he saw it in your eyes. You caught yourself looking down at your stomach as Javier leaned in closely.
âYouâre a cop, and my brotherâŚmy brother will-â
âHeâs not gonna do a damn thing.â He assured you with a whisper. Still you stood in shock with the realization that you had a relationship with a DEA agent and now you were pregnant. Javi slowly placed his hand on your stomach as you looked down, for a moment you couldnât move.
âPlease let me help you..â he whispered as a tear rolled down your cheek. You shook your head feeling yourself begin to hyperventilate, it suddenly felt hard to breathe.
âHere sit down,â he pulled a chair beside you quickly sitting you down and crouched before you.
âTomorrow Iâll take you to a doctor and make sure everything is ok, alright? I donât want you to worry about anything.â
âThatâs kind of hard, Javi.â You looked down holding back tears just as Murphy opened the door making you hear your brother yelling as he passed the hall.
âWhere is that bitch after everything Iâve given her!â He yelled angrily, Javier quickly stood up and slammed the door shut.
âWhat are we doing?â Murphy asked.
âSheâs not apart of anything-â
âPeĂąa sheâs a damn witness to a lot-â Javier stood close in front of Murphy standing his ground.
âIâm not mixing her anymore into this shit than she already is.â He whispered low enough where you couldnât hear. Murphy knew Javi wouldnât give in, he silently stepped back before leaving the room.
âWhat happened?â You asked as Javier turned back to you.
âNothing. They said youâre free to leave.â He took your hand walking you out quickly before anyone could say anything to you.
âI can go?â You asked a bit confused knowing you were the sister of a man that worked closely with Pablo.
âAre you sure?â You asked looking back as he discreetly pulled you out. Javier wasnât new at breaking rules and he was willing to go through any of them and lie to you if it meant keeping you safeâŚ
