Nodding, they moved aside so Lilly could come closer and just for a second Kit let go to give us some space. I heard him ask where Nick was, and just as he did Nick came through the double doors and approached him.
"What were the results?" Lilly asked.
"I'm not diabetic, and everything else is normal."
Nodding, she just looked at me before welling up again and pulling me into a hug.
"I'm sorry I acted like a cow," she said into my hair.
"You don't have to be sorry," I said after pulling away.
"I just care about you and the baby so much, if something was to happen—"
"Hey," I cut her off, giving her a small smile.
"I know, I'd have been the same if I were you."
She nodded and smiled before giving me another hug. I looked at Kit, and thankfully he got the hint that I wanted to talk to him, but Lilly didn't move a muscle. I knew that Kit wasn't afraid of Lilly, none of the brothers were. He still approached as if approaching a firework about to go off.
"Where were you?" I asked him directly.
Shaking his head, he looked at the pair of us.
"I'm not discussing it here."
"Can you take me home?" I said, but Kit wasn't expecting me to be talking to Lilly.
She nodded awkwardly and moved so we could walk but Kit shifted in front of me.
"Woah, what?"
"I'm going home."
"Yeah, you're going home withme," he said, looking me in the eyes.
"You need to fix your face, you can find me when you're ready to include me on what happened today."
"I'm including youright now," he spoke quietly and close so that no passers-by could hear.
"If you think I'm letting you be anywhere but with me after what's happened today, you're fucking crazy."
"Oh shit," Jason breathed before lifting his hands and running them over his head. "He just called her fucking crazy," he said before taking steps away in disbelief.
"He's got a fucking death wish…" he spoke to no one in particular as he turned back to us. All the while, Kit kept his eyes fixated on me, daring me to go against him.
"The nurse just told the pair of us that you need to avoid stress, so where does that leave me? You fight me on everything, you expect me to explain everything even though I know by doing so you'll get more stressed."
"You're supposed to be my partner, you're supposed to be with me not only mentally but physically!"
I saw the hurt in Kit's eyes, he knew what I'd meant. I meant because he hadn't been with me when I needed him today.
I was speaking out of anger and I regretted it instantly. I knew Kit was just trying to protect me, but it was the fact that he wasn't here with me and our baby and that he was elsewhere with Maddie. Also, the fact that everything felt like a huge secret, not to mention the worry and stress built up from that day alone caused me to lash out at him with my words.
"We need to leave," he said then.
"And you expect me to just come with you?" I asked, saying the first thing that came to mind.
"Yes, I do. Now come on."
