She head her dog stop barking as she jumped off the couch to great Scott, who’s footsteps she heard coming down the stairs but she couldn’t’ pull her eyes away from the screen. It was painful, because she knew the second Scott said something or touch her she’d get defensive and push him away, because she’d turned into a grieving mother who was feeling to help her own husband. She knew he was in just as much pain, but she couldn’t push her own pain aside for him, the way he did for her.
"Baby.. that's not helping you, and you know that." she heard him sigh, before he wrapped his arms around her and kissed her cheek and her entire body tensed.
"I love you." He sighed like he already knew what was coming.
She pushed him off of her, turning the tv. Off before she stood up from the couch. “Yeah, I know it’s not helping me.” She spat bitterly. “I get that Scotty, but I can’t move on like you. It’s not that simple for me.” She knew it was cruel to accuse him of being able to move on like he wasn’t hurting. She tried to fight the tears the threatened to escape her eyes, but it was no use they sliced down her cheeks. “Everything so fucked up, but your acting like nothing’s happened.” She breathed through her tears.
She slipped out the back door then, wondering if he’d follow, even though it would probably end in them fighting, she hoped he’d follow, because at least when he was there she wasn’t alone. She light herself a cigarette, taking a long drag off of it, wiping away her tears.
"Baby, you're home!" Sammie squealed excited and he smiled softly as she came over to him. [/b]"I love you."[/b] sh said wrapping her arms around him hugging him and he hesitated before wrapping his arms around her.
How the hell was he supposed to tell her that he’d lost the man source of income, when she was so happy that after all these years, she was finally going to be a mom. That was practically all she’d wanted since they’d gotten married. There was no way he could tell her, at least not now.
"Sorry.. you know how excited I get, and especially about this. Oh, baby, I love you, so, so, so, so much." she said kissing his cheek and pulling him from his thoughts. He was honestly so stunned, he was at a loss for words.
"I'm sorry.. were you gonna tell me something, Derry?" she asked and he loved the way she called him Derry.
He rand his fingers through her hair, pulling himself together quickly. “That’s the best news I’ve heard all week sweetie. My news can wait” He smiled kissing her forehead. He pulled her close wrapping an arm around her waist and lifting her chin so she had to hold his eyes, before he lend in and kissed her, deeply and lovingly. “I love you Sammie Marks, were finally starting our family.” He breathed against her lips, pulling away. “We should go to dinner to celebrate.” He said “Where ever you want to go.” He shrugged.d
