You're leaving? (A 1x1 with Lexxy)

[Lexus]

When they were finished he heard Jenna down stairs fussing. He kissed Allie'd cheek. "Thanks for the help baby girl," Clay says as Jenna's screaming intensified.

 

[isax]

"Welcome dad." Allie said as she smiled and stayed looking at the pictures of him and her mom. They looked so happy in all of them. Jenna screams worsened and worsened. She wanted one of her parents.

Clay ran down the stairs and picked Jenna up in one big swoop. "Shhhh," Clay rocked her gently to get her to calm down. Her screams sounded like someone was nurse ring her. "What's the matter Hun?" He asks gently with a smile.

 

[isax]

Jenna continued to cry and cry and when she finally opened her eyes to see her dad she stopped crying as they turned to sniffles. She reached up to his face and smiled. She looked a lot like Ashley.

Clay chuckled. "You're something else," he whispers kissing her forehead. He was glad one of their kids looked more like their mother. He took her hand and kissed her little fingers still bouncing her in his arms.

 

[isax]

When her dad took her fingers, Jenna smiled and giggled then played with his wedding finger like she did with Ashley. She held onto it for dear life and smiled at her dad as she giggled while being bounced. Eventually she slowly started to fall asleep. Not once letting go of her fathers wedding finger.

Clay smiled at Jenna. He sat down on the couch laying her against him. He didn't movd his finger from her hand and watched her sleep as he ran his fingers through the baby's hair.

The boys woke up and smiled at their dad. "Dad can Cory and I hit the fields?" Rylan asked. He could drive now. It had been that long and him and Cory were bored at the moment. Allie looked at them then looked at the clock. "Just wait. Mom said she's trying to get out by five. We can all go grab dinner." She said and the boys sighed but nodded and soon five o'clock passed and they went to buy food then 9 rolled around and that was when Ashley came to pick up Jenna. Her eyes had circles under her eyes. She was exhausted but knew she would get no sleep as always. She knocked on the door again and waited for Clay to answer with a smile on her face.

When he answered Clay looked at the clock. He saw it was nine, 15 hour work day? That was crazy. When he saw her he could see she was ex shushed. He pulled her inside and led her up the stairs, to their room. He could tell she was half asleep. She needed to rest. He handed her a towel and a pair of his clothes and turned on the shower. "I'll be back, take your time." He says walking out before she could protest.

 

[isax]

Ashley was half asleep. She was terribly exhausted at this point. When she was raising Rylan and the twins she had Clay there with her and he helped her a lot. Now it was just her and work so she could still provide and live in her apartment. It was a lot. She blinked and sighed as she took a shower and when she finished, she got dressed and laid in their bed. She laid on her side and smiled as she saw the wall with their pictures. She thought she took them down but maybe she didn't. She had fallen asleep before Clay could even come back.

When Clay came back he covered her with the comforter and turned out the light. He then walked to the guest room and set Jenna in the room with him so he could care for her and Ashley could sleep peacefully.

 

[isax]

Jenna ended up crying around 2 in the morning and Ashley barley woke up to see what was wrong. She dragged herself out of bed and walked over to the guest room where Jenna and Clay were. It was her motherly side kicking in. She scooped up Jenna in her arms and rocked her softly. "Shhh baby girl. Mommys right here." She whispered as she saw Clay wake up.

Clay took the baby gently took her from her mother and yawned turning on the light. "Ashley, go back to sleep." He says looking down at Jenna. She was a nosy little thing. Something the two of them weren't used to, their other kids were rather quiet.

 

[isax]

"No I'm fine." Ashley told him as she yawned and sat next to Clay and held Jenna's hand. "Shh, we are here Jenna." She whispered and Jenna looked at the two of them and giggled softly. Ashley smiled. She was happy Jenna was okay now but she never went to sleep again until Jenna did. "She sure is a nosy little thing would you agree?" She asked and yawned again.

"She sure has a nice set a lungs, that's not something we have to worry about." He set the sleeping baby back in the pin and smiles sleepily at Ashley as she began to fall asleep on his shoulder he too was too tired to carry here so he laid her down next to him and fell asleep.

 

[isax]

The next morning Ashley woke up at seven for work. She opened her eyes and looked at Clay and blinked. She realized their hands were holding each other's like old times. She missed this. Waking up to him every morning. She sighed and slowly sat up as she wiped her eyes. She yawned and slowly got out of the bed. She didn't want to wake Clay. She had to get ready for work but she was still so tired she almost fell down as she walked to the door. She needed to wake herself up.

Clay awoke to the sound of her falling and ran to her and laid her back in the bed. "Go back to sleep," He says covering her again. She was exhausted and he wasn't going to let her run herself dry. "You're not going today." When she was rested he was going to sit her down and talk to her. She needed to let him help her, this wasn't healthy. He saw her tense up from being sore and he sighed. "Where does it hurt?"

 

[isax]

"I have too.... I can't miss Clay." She whispered and sighed as she felt her eyes slowly starting to close on there on. Her body aching from the soreness however. She sighed and looked at him again. "My legs and shoulders. It's no big deal though." She told him and since she was half asleep, a lot of things were coming out. "It is a big deal.... I'm so exhausted.... I thought it would be easy raising her by myself. I thought okay yeah we divorced but I'll be fine on my own. I'm not okay... I'm trying my hardest to balance things but work has become so hectic and Jenna isn't like our other three little ones. I just don't know." She whispered as she slowly and finally fell asleep again.

"Shhhhh," Clay whispers knowing she was rambling because of how exhausted she was. Reaching under the blanket he started started to massage her legs and could feel how tense she was. He massaged her whole body and sat with her as she slept.

When the kids woke up, they peeked into the room but didn't want to ruin the moment their parents were having so Rylan said they were going to Emma's. There was a knock at the door however. It was Sarah. She hadn't seen Clay since the night at the restaurant and she knew the kids only thought they were friends. When Clay went to go answer it was when Ashley woke up and smiled at baby Jenna. She didn't feel so tense. She wondered who was at the door and why her muscles felt so relaxed right now.

Clay ran down the stairs and towards the front door closing it behind him. Bad timing much? He smiled at Sarah. "Morning," he says he wondered why she came. He was expecting to see her now and Ashley was here and he didn't want to start anything.

 

[isax]

"Morning hun." Sarah said as she smiled and kissed Clay on the cheek. "I wanted to check up on you because I was worried but I see you're okay. I'm glad you calmed down." She said with a smile. Little did she know Ashley was the one to get Clay to calm down.

He nodded. "I wasn't expecting you here right now, I'm sort of watching Jenna right now." He wondered why she looked confused and then it clicked. "Baby Jenna, my daughter but if you want we can arrange something this weekend."

 

[isax]

"Yeah. That's perfect." Sarah said as she smiled and then kissed Clay on the cheek and that was when the door opened. Ashley was dressed for work. She wasn't skipping and all she did was smile at the two. "Isn't she.." Sarah said and Ashley nodded. "The town s***? Yeah, that's me. I'll be back after work to pick up Jenna Clay." Ashley said simply and walked to her truck and the kids saw their mother drive off and sighed. It was all going so well. They wondered what happened.

Clay nodded at Ashley not revealing his frustrated he was at her at the moment. When she left he turned back to Claire. He really wished people would quit calling her that, she wasn't.
