Chapter thirty-six
Shawn's POV
It's Valentine's day, Beth's due date and six weeks before Abbigail gets her implants. Jordan has been doing better in school since Jeff was arrested and has a group of friends who look out for her.
I know Miranda was her first girlfriend, but I think she's falling for Aubrey Jenkins. They're constantly texting and Jordan gets this lovestruck look in her eyes when I ask about her relationship with Aubrey. She won't admit it, but I'm not fooled.
They've been hanging out every day after school and they have dinner together every weekend rather it's at our place or Aubrey's. Abbigail thinks the same as me about their relationship.
Beth has had three false labors in as many days and Melanie and I are exhausted. We've been taking turns sleeping, but it wasn't enough. Annie and Ashlee offered to let Abbigail and Jordan sleep at their place so Jordan could be well rested for school and Abbigail wanted to go with her.

Shawn's POVAbbigail and I walk into Beth's hospital room the next day and she was in instant tears when she saw me. Melanie took the baby from her and I climb in next to her. I no longer felt pain when I moved, only if there was too much pressure on my side then I felt pain.I comfort her and Abbigail sat feeding Michael a bottle. "Am I hurting you," Beth asks in a choked whisper, afraid to lay against me.I wrap my arm around her and pull her closer to me. "I'm okay, it's my right side," I say in a soothing whisper and she lets out a calming breath."I wouldn't have let her leave the house if she was in critical pain," Abbigail says quietly.Abbigail's eye surgeon knocks on the door quietly and I meet him in the hall. "I was told you were here," he says softly and looks in at Abbigail. "Do you think she'd be willing to get the implants sooner?

I quietly hum the lullaby I sing to Abbigail and he instantly goes back to sleep.Beth looks at me with surprise and kisses my forehead. "What time is it," I ask in a quiet whisper, rubbing my eyes."It's six o'clock in the morning. Abbigail is still sleeping and Michael slept all night. I thought he'd be up to feed by now," she whispers quietly and hands me a coffee. "I know who to ask to help him sleep if he gets fussy. He didn't really sleep much the other night.""Were you able to sleep last night," I ask quietly as I sip my coffee.She nods lightly, stroking Michael's patch of hair. He let's out a content sigh and nuzzles his face under my chin. His hands grasp at my shirt, holding onto me as if someone else tried to take him.I rub at his back gently as my

I give her a tired smile and she gives me a kiss. I notice Jordan behind her with Aubrey and her mother Alexis, both of them looked scared and covered in bruises."We were on our way to the cemetery when Aubrey called Jordan. Greg was using his belt to whip them and he was severely drunk," Shawn says quietly and I could see a hint of anger in her eyes. "I offered them the guest room with the double beds for a while."She helps me sit up and I walk up to Alexis and Aubrey. One look in Alexis' eyes and tears fill my eyes. "How far are you," I ask in a choked whisper."You're pregnant," Shawn asks in a protective tone and I knew she was definitely angry now.Alexis nods vigorously and breaks into uncontrolled sobs.
