Chasing After My Wife

After several tests and plenty of rest, Jillyanna was finally discharged the next day. Sky and Cielo waited for her in her house. Lucian still needed to do some investigation regarding her mother's death. With the help of Enzo, they finally narrowed the list of people who wanted to get her mother's research but it wasn't enough. Far from enough.     

Alex stayed at home since he wasn't feeling well and didn't want to affect Jillyanna who just came out from the hospital.     

"We're finally going home." Jillyanna stretched her arms wide to inhale some fresh air and feel it on her skin.     

Travis was pulling her suitcase while following her out. He guided her towards his car at the parking lot and put her things in the trunk.     

"What time will your music video be released?" Travis asked them when they're both inside the car.     

"It should be during lunch time. Let's watch it once we're home." Jillyanna suggested which made Travis smile.     

"Sure."     

"But don't you have work?" she asked him after realizing how many company and business he's handling.     

Travis rubbed her head gently. "It's fine. It's not that long. I can do my work whenever I want."     

"If you say so."     

She didn't really want to bother him but since he said that it's okay, then she'll just go with it.     

Travis drove his car under normal speed limit this time and reached their home after half an hour.     

Jillyanna got out of the car immediately and checked her father's garden. The flowers were in full bloom and they looked so beautiful. 'Mom, Daddy's love for you blooms again. I hope you're happy to see these.' she spoke mentally while caressing the flowers.     

Travis took out her things and went inside the house to place it on their room. "Don't stay too long outside." he reminded her as he changed his shoes to indoor slippers.     

Jillyanna came over as soon as she heard him. Travis helped her change her shoes to slippers since she wasn't allowed to bend so much for a month.     

"Welcome home." It was Cielo and Sky who greeted her and Travis. Jillyanna kissed them on the cheeks and followed them to the living room.     

"Welcome back Jillyanna." It was Brown who came out from the kitchen with his apron still tied on his body. Hawk and Valkyrie was behind him who just nodded at her.     

"Thank you." she smiled at them faintly when she saw them. "I'm a bit tired. I didn't know being pregnant would make you crave for sleep." she murmured and sat on the couch.     

"It's fine. You can take as much sleep as you want. After a month, you should start doing some light exercise but make sure to ask help from your doctor." Sky responded to her since she's also a mother.     

"I will let Travis know about it." she retorted. After resting for a while she stood up again. "I'll go to my room first. If you need anything, just let me know. I'm feeling sleepy again."     

Everyone looked at her with a helpless expression but she didn't care as well. She walked up the stairs and went inside her room. Travis was almost done arranging her things in the closet.     

Her laptop and ipad were placed on the bedside table together with his phone. She took her laptop and sat on her bed before opening it.     

"What are you doing? Shouldn't you be resting?" Travis asked her, zipping up her suitcase and placed it on the lowest part of the closet where the other suitcases were located.     

Jillyanna looked at him then looked back at her laptop. "We'll watch our music video right?"     

"There's still two hours before that."     

"Fine. I'll sleep for a while. Wake me up when it's noon already." she didn't close her laptop but she put it aside for now.     

As promised, Travis let her sleep for a while. Whenever she's resting, he would also continue to do his work. He checked the documents that were sent to him, saved the ones that he liked and marked with a red color the ones that he didn't like.     

After two hours, he was able to finish the documents that was sent to him for that day. He kept his laptop and checked on the sleeping woman.     

It's quarter to 12 in the afternoon and the music video will be released soon but he didn't want to disturb her sleep.     

Risking his life on the line, he tucked her messy hair behind her ear and kissed her face. "Wifey, your music video will be released soon." he whispered close to her ear.     

Jillyanna stirred and rubbed her ears but she didn't wake up. She turned to her other side and faced her back on him.     

Travis placed his hand on her tummy and rubbed her stomach. "Wifey, wake up."     

Jillyanna felt a little warm on her stomach, so comfortable, making her want to snuggle close to it. "Huh?" she opened her eyes wide and looked at her stomach. "What are you doing?"     

"I'm waking you up." he's looking so innocent but Jillyanna knew how naughty he could be.     

"That was effective." she moved his hands away and rubbed her eyes. "Is it time already?"     

"Almost time. Let's go down and eat first." Travis suggested to her. "We can watch it after eating."     

"Okay." she obediently followed him since it was for her best as well. "When will you go back to work?"     

"I'm planning to go back tomorrow."     

"What about me?" she asked while pointing to herself. If she wasn't pregnant she won't ever rely on him but now, there's a baby that she wanted to protect.     

"You will be coming with me. Didn't you say that we'll stick together? Wherever I go, you'll be with me. Wherever you go, I'll be with you." Travis responded to her with a smile. "I won't let anyone take you away."     

"Of course. Since you wanted me to stay, you have to put up with me. I told you before, I'm not easy to get along with."     

"Who cares? I love you so it doesn't matter. I will keep you safe even if it will cost me my life."     

She blushed and her heart skipped a beat but she kept herself calm "Thank you." she responded to his sweet statement.     

"Shouldn't it be 'I love you, too' ?"     

"Stop dreaming." she rolled her eyes and walked out of their room with Travis following behind her.
