The Light Behind Your Eyes
Chapter 19
Frank's POV
I was sitting in the waiting room trying to call Jess, we have another appointment with the midwife today but I can't get a hold of her. Recently she's been acting pretty shady and spending time with some of her old friends again. We've been arguing so much more as well.
"Iero?" The midwife called. I got up and followed her into the office.
"Hello Frank, where's Jessica today?"
"Uh, i'm sure she'll be here any minute, can we continue without her?"
"Not really, I need her belly here in order to look at the baby" The midwife joked.
"Well, could you fill me in on some information?"
"Sure, we could discuss the birth plan, I know the end of June seems like ages away but believe you me, it'll come around like that" she said snapping her fingers. This confused me, Jess said our baby was due in May.
"The end of May you mean." I corrected her
"No it's definitely the very end of June, she may even last to the start of July."
"You must be mistaken, Jess told me it was May" A troubled look came across the midwifes face, she opened Jess's file.
"I'm sorry Frank, it says here the estimated date of delivery is June 28th, Jess and I have spoken about it. We're never wrong about these dates especially not by a whole month. But this is good isn't it? It gives you another month to prepare"
"I'm confused, if the baby is due in June that means he was conceived..."
"Around the last two weeks of September"
"You're sure?"
"It's my job to be sure of these things Frank" My heart started to race, I could feel my blood begin to boil. My breathing became unsteady and my finger tips were tingling What was happening? I stood up and began pacing
"Frank I think you need to sit down."
"It's not mine."
"what"
"That bitch lied to me"
"Frank calm down"
"How can I calm down when that bitch told me this kid was mine and made me give up everything and for what? NOTHING! How could I be so stupid to believe her?"
"Are you sure you didn't have sex in September?"
"Absolutely positive, i'm sorry, I have to go!" I said before running out of the office and to the car and speeding home.
"JESS!" i yelled as i burst through the front door.
"WHERE ARE YOU, YOU LITTLE BITCH?" I screamed while searching every room in the house. I was so frustrated I began throwing anything in sight pushing over my wardrobe, ripping my posters off my walls just screaming. My room looked like a bomb had hit it, I collapsed to the floor shaking in anger, I couldn't process my feelings, I was so angry at Jess but more fucked off at myself for being stupid enough to believe her. I pulled out a cig to calm myself down but it took about 3 before my hands stopped trembling. When I finally calmed down a bit I decided to pack Jess's things, there is no way that bitch is staying here now. I threw all of her shit in rubbish bags because that's exactly what that slut is. Trash. Then I sat at the kitchen table waiting of her to come home.
it must have been well after midnight before Jess returned. She tried sneaking in but I was still at the kitchen table waiting for her.
"Nice of you to come back."
"Jesus Frank you scared the shit out of me! Don't do that again it's bad for our baby" She said holding her chest with on hand and rubbing her bump with her other.
"oh right OUR baby?" I simply stated
"What's wrong with you babe, you're acting weird"
"Am I? Maybe it's because I just found out that that's not my FUCKING KID YOU'RE CARRYING" I shouted as I stood up from the table.
"What? Of-of course it is" She spluttered out
"No more fucking lies Jess I KNOW IT'S NOT MINE! THE DELIVERY DATE DOESN'T MATCH UP!"
"I-I don't know what you're talking about"
"Don't play fucking dumb with me, I seen the midwife today she told me the baby is due in June, that means we would have had to have sex in September and we both know that never happened! How long did you think you could keep this up huh? didn't you think I would have noticed that you didn't give birth in MAY? DO YOU THINK I'M A FUCKING IDIOT?"
"Frank i'm sorry!" She cried out
"I don't wanna fucking hear it. Get out."
"No please let me explain"
"I SAID GET OUT!"
"No Frank, baby listen to me"
"You better be fucking gone by the time I get back. I never want to see your fucking face ever again!" I said grabbing my keys and slamming the door shut. I ran to the car and just started driving, before I knew it I was at Izzy's house. I parked outside her house for half an hour before mustering up the courage to knock at her door. I thought of what I would say to her, I still wasn't sure, I just needed her now. I rang the doorbell about 10 times but no one answered. I thought about calling her, could I do that? Is it fair on her? she's spent all this time getting over me, do I dare ask her for a second chance? Instead I called Bob, he'll know what to do.
"Frank! My main man! what's up?" Bob slurred down the phone, it was hard to hear him with the loud music in the background.
"Bob where are you, I need to talk to you! it's important"
"Gerard's house come on over it's his birthday!"
"I'll be there as quick as I can" I said before hanging up ad speeding to Gerard's.
Izzy's POV
Tonight is Gee's birthday, he says he's not excited for it because it means he's no longer going to be a teenager but I know that deep down he's excited. As always we're just having a house party but this one is going to be crazy, we've all invited absolutely everyone we know. Their house is gonna get absolutely trashed! It was about 2 in the morning and we were all incredibly smashed when Gee came over to me and snaked his arm around my waist.
"Do I get to unwrap you as part of my present?" He whispered, I giggled and nodded as he followed me down to his room.
I took off my top and jumped into his arms and we started making out when his door swung open,
"WHAT THE FUCK?" Said a voice from the doorway we both looked to see who caught us, I was devastated when I realized it was Frank.
"Fuck!" I said as I let go of Gerard.
