The doctor attend to Logan and left to check Justin who was still asleep, according to Jer
Mom remained in the room with me after the doctor whose name I don't know, left and it was the most awkward feeling ever.
Suddenly mom breaks the silence, "Jamie, if I know my son, then I know that you have no idea where he was last night. so I am not blaming you." Mom reassures me, she's not holding me responsible, but what she doesn't know is that I am the one who encouraged him to go out there and do something to end this war with his grandfather.
I can't let Logan go down for this and I need to be honest, because my husband is going to be okay and I don't need the guilt hanging over me.
"Mom, I need to explain," I was saying when Logan moans my name.
Eyes fluttering but still not open, "Jamie, Jamie," Logan moans and I reached for him since I was already sitting close by.
"Hey, I am here" I touched his forehead, which was now lukewarm, but his lips looked parched. "Let me get you some water" I started to move off the bed, but mom was quicker than me.
Already moving towards the inside bedroom door, "I'll get it, stay with him." She says opening the bolts that Logan insisted that I keep locked
Still uncomfortable to be lying to mom, "thanks" I answered softly, staring at her retreating back.
Touching Logan's rough stubble, caressing his cheek with one hand and holding his hand with another, "Logan, I have no idea what to tell her" I whispered and I felt Logan squeeze my hand and I gasped.
Smiling because He's hearing me, which means he stopped me from saying anything to mom. I leaned down and tough his lips with a light feather kiss. "Thank you" I mummer, before resting my face on his. "I love you so much and I still can't believe that I have known you for almost a year now. You are the most important person in my life." I whispered, lifting my head when I head mom, shutting the door, as she reenters the room.
I shift aside to allow mom to feed Logan the water and by her small smile, I know that she appreciated my gesture.
I look on as she lifted his head and feeds him crunched up pieces of ice and smile as Logan's Adam's apple moves up and down as he swallows the small pieces.
Justin!
Reaching for my phone that is at the edge of the bed, I quickly dialed Cameron.
"Jamie" Cameron answeres.
"How is Justin?" I responded quickly, because his well being is just as important to me as Logan's.
Sighing on the other end before he answers, "Justin is fine, doc just give him a clean bill of health." Cameron assures me and I smile to mom who was looking on keenly at the conversation I was having with Cameron.
"Uh, Cameron, we didn't pay the doctor" I said and see mom shake her head, while at the same time Cameron responds.
Chuckling, "don't worry about that, your husband handles him" Cameron confirms what mom was trying to silently say to me.
Nodding to mom, before I answered to Cameron, "okay thanks. Just make sure Justin eats well and thank you all for helping take care of him." I say.
"No problem," Cameron, responds.
"Later," I said and hung up, relieved that everyone is okay, well expect mom, who was still staring at me, thoughtfully.
I just smiled and didn't ask any questions because I didn't want her questioning me.
Taking a deep breath, "what are you going to tell dad?" I asked and mom shakes her head.
"Oh no. That's between Logan and his father. I will take you shopping when they discuss what happened last night." she chuckles.
"Shopping?" I asked, following her gaze on my jeans that's not buttoning. I smile, "it's okay, I can order online." I quickly refused, not wanting to impose on anyone for my own personal needs.
Refusing to accept my refusal, "you are putting on weight, which is a good thing and you are outgrowing your clothes. Just because you're lockdown here, doesn't mean that you are gong to dress drab." Mom shakes her head. "I have a reputation to protect. In fact," mom pauses, a contented smile on her face. "I have been doing sketches for a maternity line and I want to do some photos with you modeling them." She says excitedly.
Surprise, "uh, what? my mouth opened I stared at her.
Chuckling at my expression, "yes, I do believe that you heard me. You owe me for all of this" she indicates Logan. "So you are going to model for me and I will get Jerome to do some shots for me. I am sure he can handle a camera, as he has been working with you for a while now." Mom, explains, her mind already made up and from the sound of it she has been planning it for sometime now and now that Logan and I messed up.
"You are blackmailing me?" I asked shocked, that my own mother-in-law is doing this. I didn't dodge this bullet.
My mouth opens as I gawked at her, "but I, I am not a. I am not a model" I stammerer.
Laughing heartily, "my son wasn't a model either" she continues laughing and I smile at her enjoyment after all the bad things that has been happening around us.
Looking at Logan sleeping form, "well I will have to discuss it with Logan first." I tell her and she quickly corrects me.
"Discuss?" She repeats quickly, "you mean like how he discuss what he was up to last night with me?" Mom reminded me and I felt horrible but, that doesn't mean she can blackmail me into modeling for her.
One last attempt, I thought, "I not your gorgeous model type" I explained and her expression changes and her eyes saddens.
