You were sitting on your couch, bounced you 6-month-old son, Johnathon. You smiled as he giggled and chewed on his hands, dribbling down his hands. You sighed and placed him down so he was lying next to you and you remembered the day when you tried to tell Steve about you being pregnant.
You knee was bouncing up and down as you waited for Steve to come home, you had just come back from the doctors, with some news. You heard the key in the lock and you stood up. You smiled but your smile fell from your face. Steve looked at you and his face formed a frown.
‘What’s wrong?’ You asked as you stepped closer but he gave a grunt and walked towards the kitchen, totally avoiding you. You turned to watch him get a beer out of the fridge. You played with your wedding band.
‘I have to talk to you.’ You both said and you both looked at each other.
‘You go first.’ You said to Steve and he nodded slowly. You took a deep breath waiting for him to speak up.
‘I think you should have these.’ He said lowly, retrieving a brown folder form his bag. You shook a shaky hand out and took it.
‘What is it?’ You asked, your voice wavering.
‘Just read it please.’ He said and you opened the envelope, you pulled the paper out and read the first line. You heart broke and the tears started flowing freely.
‘Divorce?’ You asked shakily. When he didn’t reply, you looked up and asked him louder.
‘A divorce? Really?’ you said and Steve looked up meeting your eyes for the first time, and he nodded.
Your phone ran loudly breaking you from your daydream. You looked at the name and saw it was Danny.
‘Hello.’ You said into it. You heard a shaky breath on the other end.
‘Danny?’ You questioned.
‘He’s waking up.’ Danny said, you could hear the people in the hospital rushing and working away.
‘What?’ You asked in disbelief. It had been 9 months since you had seen him and it hadn’t ended well.
You left the bathroom after having flushed the toilet and brushed your teeth, you hated the fact you were already having morning sickness. You pulled a baggy hoodie on and made your way down the stairs. You opened the door to see a pissed off Steve.
‘Why haven’t you signed it?’ He asked. You looked taken aback.
‘What?’ You asked, looking confused.
‘You were to have the papers signed for today.’ He said and you realized why he was annoyed.
‘I’m sorry it slipped my mind.’ You told him honestly, you were a little occupied with your appointments.
‘Why are you busy? You never do anything but sit on your bum all day.’ He told you and you looked down, rubbing your belly. You still and the ring in your wedding finger but you looked at Steve, he didn’t.
‘You took it off.’ You said, completely changing the subject. Steve looked confused but he followed your eyes and saw you were talking about the ring.
‘Yeah.’ He said placing his hands into his shorts pockets.
‘Why haven’t you signed them?’ He asked. You looked up and meet his eye for a second before looking away.
‘I’ve been busy.’ You told him again.
‘What with?’ He asked, knowing your job was on during this season.
‘Stuff.’ You replied, feeling sick.
‘What stuff?’ He kept interrogating. You rolled your eyes.
‘Stop using your techniques on me, you know they don’t work.’ You said to him and that was one of the reasons he kept chasing after you. He struggled to get a reaction or an answer out if you.
‘I’m no-‘ He started saying but stopped when he saw you running up the stairs and he could hear you being sick.
as you flushed the toilet you turned a aw Steve standing in the door way. His eyes wide as he put all your actions together. You had wanted to tell him something, you’d been rubbing your belly a lot and had gained wait from the last time he saw you. Not much but it was different to him.
‘What do you want Steve?’ you asked as you brushed your teeth.
‘You’re pregnant?’ He asked and you spat the excess toothpaste out.
‘What?’ You asked him. He shook his head and stepped forward but you stood your ground but you placed your hand around you stomach, confirming his thoughts.
‘How long?’ He asked.
‘4 months.’ You said quietly. He placed his hands behind his head and turned, sighing.
‘Why didn’t you tell me?’ He asked. You scoffed.
‘Didn’t tell you? I tried t, Steve! You remember the night you handed me the papers ending our marriage? I was going to tell you but then you handed be five bites of paper that ruined my life and kicked you from my child’s life.’ You told him stepping up to him, your face becoming red.
‘You had no right not to tell me.’ Steve said and you turned to him causing him to flinch he had never seen you so angry.
‘No right? Steve, you ended out marriage. I thought for a second that maybe the baby would change your mind but then I didn’t want him growing up thinking she was the reason we got a divorce later in life.’ You said and Steve’s arms dropped.
‘A son.’ He said and his eyes couldn’t contain the tears anymore.
‘Yes, now leave.’ You said as you watched the man you still loved cry at the thought of having a son. When he didn’t leave you stepped back.
‘Please.’ You whispered.
‘I’ll be there soon.’ You said and hung up. You gathered Johnathon and your stuff heading to the car. After you told Steve he had went on a case, to Russia but he didn’t return himself. He came back and he was in a coma. At first you had visited every day but as you stomach got bigger and you more responsibilities, you didn’t visit anymore.
As you arrived at the hospital you grabbed Johnathon and walked to the ward you hadn’t visited for a long time. You saw Danny waiting outside the room.
‘Hi, he’s just woke and he’s groggy.’ Danny started saying and you nodded, going to enter but Danny grabbed your arm.
‘What?’ You asked your best friend.
‘He doesn’t remember you.’ Danny said looking at the floor. It should have but it hit you like a ton of bricks.
‘Okay.’ You simply said and headed in with Danny behind you.
‘Steve?’ You questioned.
‘Yeah?’ Steve said looking at you as he watched you enter.
‘I’m sorry do I know you?’ He asked as he looked over your form with Johnathon on your hip.
‘You did.’ You said and the tears started falling. Danny stepped in.
‘Steve, this was your wife.’ He said and Steve looked at Danny then to you.
‘Was?’ He asked.
‘Yeah, buddy. You asked for a divorce.’ Danny said and Steve looked at your son.
‘He’s mine. Isn’t he?’ he asked you. You nodded and wiped the tears and looked at Johnathon sleeping.
‘Can we have a minute please.’ He asked Danny and he nodded. You gave him Johnathon so you could talk in peace.
‘Why did I file for a divorce?’ He asked you and you shrugged your shoulders.
‘You didn’t say.’ You told him honestly.
‘Have they gone through?’ he asked and you shook you head again.
‘No, you have been on the coma for the past month, so they couldn’t do anything. They needed to wait for you to wake up.’ You said to him as you played with the edge of the blanket.
‘Don’t sign them.’ He said and you looked up quickly.
‘What?’ You asked
‘Please don’t sign them.’ He repeated.
‘Stev-‘ You started but you were cut off by him.
‘Don’t sign them please. I want to make things better. I don’t know what made me sign them but I know I was stupid. I have a son. We have a son. I haven’t been here to help you and I was an ass for giving them to you.’ He said and you kept back the tears, not to upset him anymore.
‘Steve, don’t say this. You will go through with this.’ You told him.
‘Why?’ He questioned.
‘You had a reason. I don’t know what it was but you obviously didn’t want us to be married any longer.’ You said as you looked at him and wiped a tear away that fell from his face.
‘But…-
‘But, nothing Steve. We will get divorced and when you are better and released from here, you can visit him. You can take him when you like. Okay?’ You asked and he nodded slowly as more tears fell.
‘What’s his name?’ He asked, looking out the window watching Danny and Johnathon.
‘Johnathon.’ You told him as you stood up.
‘After my dad.’ He said quietly, watching you leave. You nodded your head before exiting the room.
