103- Tame

Ashley Walters pov 'You are silly, Justin. I don’t know why Sarah had to bring me here. Please take me home." Granny was continuously whining like a toddler and Justin was trying to make her calm like a mommy. It was heartwarming to witness the chemistry.

'Yes, we would granny. Soon!" He said hugging her fragile body to himself. Sarah was standing in the corner with arms folded on her chest. She looked annoyed and tired and very much pregnant.

I didn't see her after that night when I barged into her engagement party.

'That’s what I am telling her." She complained and started making a messy bun of her dark blond hair at the top.

"No! You didn't tell me anything, Sarah!" Granny complained again to Justin, "she said we are only going for a brief visit. For a short checkup." The way that old cow ... I mean Mrs. Deluca was complaining, "And here the visit turned into this annoying hospital admission."

I didn't want to admit but Mrs. Deluca looked kind of cute. Justin kept cooing at her. She was not ready to take any treatments and was creating havoc. That was the reason Sarah had to call Justin urgently.

At least now she was convinced to let the nurse prick her to insert the cannula. They were giving her a drip and injecting a little bit of age- appropriate sleeping drug into it.

Once Mrs. Deluca started feeling drowsy, Justin eyed me and then his gaze traveled to Sarah.

"You should go home, Sarah.” He told her gently.

"Duh. I am not tired. You and Ashley are here after four hours of traveling.

Go and get some nap." Her nostrils flared when she tried to hold a yawn.

"Where is Marwick? Call him Ask him to take you home." Justin said stretching his arms and then threw one around me.

"Marwick is away on business. He might reach tomorrow evening. Or the day after tomorrow. No idea. But mom and dad will be here tomorrow." 'Then I am calling the driver!" Justin started punching his phone when

Sarah again stopped him, "Geez. Justin. I am good! Ok? Take Ashley and get lost.”

"Where is Keith?" "I... I couldn't tell him about granny. He thinks that I am still in the mansion to give her company."

The skin between Justin's brows knitted into several lines, "Keith doesn't know you are here?”

"I didn't get time. Ok? It’s not that I am hiding something... Oh God, Justin. Go out! I am getting angry.” By now Sarah seemed dead tired and on the verge of losing.

"Justin!" Placing my hand on his shoulder, I spoke for the first time, 'Take Sarah with you. I can stay here." "Nah! I can't allow that! How can you..." I didn't let him finish.

"Why can't I, Justin Deluca?" I frowned at him.

"Exactly! Why can't she, by the way?" Sarah placed her hands on her hips and then turned to me, "Are you pregnant too?"
