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

[Lexus]

"She'll be alright," He reassure them. It's not like he had a choice in cutting it, it was standard procedure. "So what's new?" He asks checking the time.

 

[isax]

"Nothing really. Just finishing up the final details of the house for your return." Rylan said with a smile. "That and Rylan moved in with us." Cory said and Rylan laughed and nodded. "I'm getting an apartment soon." He said and Jenna smiled at her father. She reached out as if she hoped he would wrap his arms around her.

"Well, y'all are boring." Clay says with a laugh teasingly and smiled at Jenna. He wished he could hold her. He could tell though something was wrong with Ashley, like she was hiding something.

 

[isax]

"Kids can you all go finish up the barn please?" She asked them and they looked at their mom but nodded and walked off. "Clay.... It's back. You know what I'm talking about. It came back and Jenna has it to but hers can be controlled which is a good thing..." Ashley said and sighed as she sat in a chair and put her head in her hands. She didn't know what to do anymore.

Clay wished he had heard her wrong but he knew he didn't. They told him there was a chance it would come back but at the time he didn't care. He just didn't want her to die. He sighed and rubbed his face before looking back at her. He was expecting a help when he made this call not a "I could die again while you're in a totally different country." He couldn't leave, do he was useless to her and he didn't know what to say. "How bad?"

 

[isax]

"Not severe but it's there." Ashley said as she sighed. She knew what he was thinking and it killed her. "I'm not going to die Clay I promise. Not this time. Not again." She whispered and didn't look up at him because she was crying. "I'll be fine. You aren't useless. Knowing you will come back to me give me strength."

"Don't cry," he whispers to her. "It'll be okay, it always turns out okay." He reminds her. "I love you." Clay says with a smile. "Only a couple more months." He looked at the clock and saw he had to go, he had work to get back to. "Tell everyone I love them and I'll call soon."

 

[isax]

Ashley looked up at her husband and smiled. "I love you too. I'll tell them. See you soon love." She said as she blew a kiss to him and then ended the call with a sigh and felt arms wrap around her. "You'll be okay mom." Rylan said and she sighed and wiped her tears away. "I know."

Allie saw what this was going to her mom and it made her upset. It's not like the Waters had a choice though. Summer turned to fall and fall turned to winter just three more months until Clay would come home.


Allie say in the kitchen and watched everyone from a distance as they opened their gifts. She sipped the hot chocolate she was drinking and smiled at Jenna who wobbly walked over to Rylan and threw paper on him. Everyone was here, everyone except Clay. For the past couple hours though Allie kept a close eye on Reagan. She wasn't sure what was up with her but she was acting strange. When her mom walked in the kitchen she turned from the cup. "Mom, watch." She whispers pointing to Reagan.

 

[isax]

Ashley blinked and looked at Reagan to see what her daughter was referring to. Rylan laughed as he and Jenna played games with each other. Ashley was going through a lot lately and she missed her husband. She wanted him home again. She honestly was dying without him.

When Allie's mom didn't point out anything that was wrong with Reagan she got up from the chair and walked over to mother and hugged her. "We have something for you," Allie says with a smile as she took her nom's hand and motioned her siblings and clan to follow, she watched Rylan help Reagan to her feet where she winced again and led their mom to the barn. When Ashley looked at the kids confused Rylan pushed her forward. "Go on mom, it's cold out here just open the door."

 

[isax]

Ashley was confused by what her kids were doing. She looked back at everyone as they all smiled. Ashley went and opened the door. She didn't see anything at first so she looked back at her kids and the clan. "What?" She asked them.

Allie shook her head at her mom and laughed pushing her forward as her dad stepped out from behind the hay barrels. When he say Ashley he smiled and removed his cap. "Pardon me, I was looking for a Mrs Waters, have you seen her?"

 

[isax]

Ashley gasped as her eyes landed on her husband. She ran and hugged him tight, her legs around his waist. She began to cry as she held him close. "I missed you so much. I love you. I love you. I love you so much Clay Waters." Ashley whispered as she laughed and continued to cry. Rylan smiled at his mother. He knew she was happy. "We did well in hiding it from her." Rylan told Allie and laughed.

Clay laughed at his wife as she nearly knocked him over. He didn't mind if though he held her right and when she started to ramble he kissed her, softly, yet lovingly and smiled against her lips when she returned the kiss. "I love you too." He whispers with a bright smile. Allie looked over to her parents and nodded ton her brother. "If mom finds out he slept out here, you're dead." She says rubbing her arms from the cold.

 

[isax]

Ashley smiled and kissed Clay yet again and stayed holding him close. She was smiling a bright smile and then she began to cough. She wheezed slightly but didn't let it bother her. She kissed him again and then looked at her kids with a bright smile. One they hadn't seen since their dad left. "Nobody told him he had to. We said we could sneak him in when mom fell asleep." Rylan said and rubbed his arms. "Hey love birds, can we head inside." Gaven said and laughed.

Clay turned to the clan and nodded setting Ashley back on her feet. Before they all headed back inside. Clay watched Reagan nearly fall but he ran ahead and caught her from behind. It wasn't hard for him to tell what was going on. "Ashley!" He calls. Not letting to of the girl. He wasn't sure if Reagan was trying to keep the labor a secret or she just didn't know. "How long have you been like this?" Clay asks her. He needed to know to know of they're was time to get her tow hospital.

 

[isax]

When Ashley heard her husband calm him, she ran over to Reagan and looked at her. "Oh my. Get her to the truck." She told Clay as Reagan looked at her uncle. "Not long." Reagan said. "Rylan Jensen Waters! Help your father with Reagan!" Ashley said as she ran to get the keys. Allie and Cory got in their car with Jenna in the back and Gaven went over to help Rylan and Clay.

Clay helped his son but then he stood back."This is not something we can help you with," he says referring to himself and Gaven. The two had already been through the experience. It was in this moment his son needed to prove he had grown. When Rylan nodded Clay walked off to his wife and let out a content sigh. "It's good to be home."

 

[isax]

"Clay Waters we have to at least go with him." Ashley told him as everyone else left to follow. She shook her head at her husband and kissed him softly but lovingly. "I bet it is." She whispered against his lips then went to their room and laid on the bed. Their pictures on the ceiling now. Allie said it was better.

"And we will, just as soon as I change." He laughed. He honestly hated the attention he got whole dressed like this. He was still cold from spending all day in the barn. When he was ready he grabbed the keys and followed everyone else. "Of course our son would have a baby when it's friggin 10 degrees out." He says teasingly turning on the heat. The whole rode there he remembered his panicked rush to get to his wife when Rylan himself was born.

 

[isax]

Ashley laughed at her husband as she shivered from the cool air and she began to cough. She reached in her purse and pulled out her inhaler. Something she didn't miss. She took the two puffs and sighed. She held her husbands hand and closed her eyes. "I hate this." She told him

"I know." He whispers in a defeated sigh handing her his jacket and wrapping it around her. It didn't really for him anyway, he had grown skinnier again like he had before. He walked with her insides and say with everyone else. When Allie rounded the corner with Jenna he stood up and took her in his arms.

 

[isax]

Ashley smiled as Clay wrapped his jacket around her. She looked at Clay and smiled as Jenna's face lit up to be in her fathers arms. "Daddy!" She said. Ashley had been working on that with her. She hugged Clay close and smiled. "Missed you!" She added and smiled.

Clay laughed excitedly at his youngest, he has tears but he pushed them away. "I missed you top princess." He says to her kissing her cheek and holding her tight. She had grown so much.
