Regrets

Kayleigh's POV

To say I was shocked to see him today would be an understatement. I didn't expect this day to come faster than I thought and not to forget that I haven't even thought of what I would say to him. When he held my gaze, I saw the hurt in his eyes for not letting him be a part of his daughter's life. I immediately regret hiding such an important part of our life from him, tear started falling more and more; I couldn't hold them anymore. Eddie came towards me and lifted my chin up so he could look in my eyes, I saw tears clouding in his eyes but he tried to hide it pretty well. I couldn't look at him anymore, I pushed his hand back and ran out of the door. Jay got up from his seat but I didn't bother to look in his direction, "I gotta go!" I went in the nursery and picked up Haley in my arms fortunately she is sleeping. I reached towards the stairs when Eddie called out my name, I stopped but I didn't turn to face him, "I am giving you a night to think, tomorrow I am coming and we will decide how we want to work this through!" I strode off after hearing him out. I drove home and Once I reached home I told Sam everything that happened. I went to bed after hearing same plans '100 ways to hurt Eddie', she has finally got an opportunity to punch him as she had always planned. I tried to fall asleep but I just couldn't knowing that I've hurt the only man I ever loved. If only I could turn back time but all I can do is cry myself to sleep and prepare myself for the worst situation.

Edward's pov

She left without even looking back at me. Jay kept a hand on my shoulder trying to reassure me, "come, let's go back to the study and I'll pour us a drink." We both went back to the study and he poured us a drink. As I sat on the couch, I drowned the content down my throat. I was still trying to process everything that has happened today, it was way too much to take in especially from the woman for whom I feel something. Jay faked a cough to get my attention, "I know all the things you found out today is too much to take in, especially after seeing her after almost 2 years." He poured us another glass and I picked up the glass and leaned back on the couch, "I still don't get as to why she tried to hide such important detail? I don't really know what to do next, I mean I want the baby but it is still too much to take in!" Jay nodded sipping his drink, "Yeah, I can understand but you should think twice before making any decisions. Kay has been through a lot and Haley is all she has!" It made my heart clenched hearing those words, I mean even I was also there for her always but she chose to hide it. I took a large sip of the drink to kill the heartache before looking at him," Do you know why she left me? Why she hid such an important part of our life from me?" Jay looked at me with shock as if I should have already known the reason but he answered anyway, "Maybe last time you spoke to her you said some mean stuff. She didn't want to tie you down with her without love when she found out she was pregnant with your child and also she was scared that you will take her baby away from her. This what I have gathered so far!" Then it hit me 'shit I treated her real bad! I was a douche back then!' I gulped my drink before pouring another one, "You could have told me when you found out but you chose to betray me!" He sighed, "How could I tell you when you messed up her life and you always toyed with her feelings? I was going to come and beat the shit out of you the same night but Kay stopped me and anyways it wasn't my place to tell you! it was her's so I let her decide when to tell you!" He asked curiously, "So what are you going to do now? She still loves you and she hasn't seen anyone after you." I put my glass down and looked at him, "You're right, I deserved it. I will try to make things right but first I am meeting Haley first thing tomorrow." I left his house and drove straight to my house, my thoughts still caught up with the baby. 'It wasn't the first time I met her, she is so adorable. I am a father now, if only I had been there for her from the start' I wiped my tears 'it's never too late, I will the father she deserves and make things right with Kay. I owe her a million apologies'. On my way home I picked up some child care books and read it before sleep so I can learn about everything I need to care for my child.
