Karen's P.O.V.
This is horrible. I can't see a damn thing from the damn rain and can't go outside because of the damn thunder and lightning. My damn phone battery is dead and shut off my car and now the damn car won't start. Can my day get any worse?! Oh yeah.. And I'm pregnant and alone. It got worse. I'm stuck in the middle of no where. I wanna go home. I should have gone home. I hate this. I don't know to do. Should I get out and find where I am? Should I stay and wait? I don't know...
Jimi's P.O.V.
She's gone. To where? I don't know. All I know is I want her back and I want to hold her. I called her more then twenties time and no answer. It goes straight to voicemail. I've been home worrying about her.
I was snapped out of my thoughts by the phone ringing. I rushed to it and answered "Hello?!"
"Jimi?"
"Karen... I thought something happened to you! Where are you?"
"I'm fine... But I don't know where I am... My car broke down and my battery in my phone died... Then it started storming... It's dark, I'm wet and cold and I wanna come home..."
"I will come get you. But I need to know where you're at. Do you remember where you drove too? Where your car is?"
"I don't know... I went down back roads... I walked for about a half hour... I found a payphone and called you..."
"Okay baby... I'll find you. I don't know where you are. But I'll find you."
"Jimi... I... I have to tell you something" A claps of thunder roars in the back ground lightning flashes.
"I know you're pregnant. That's why I need to find you as soon as I can."
"You know..?"
"Yeah... Kim told me after she called saying you left."
"I'm sorry..."
"It's okay. But I need you home."
"I don't know where I am..."
"I know baby. Can you find shelter?"
"I'm in a payphone booth. This is the only thing I see around..."
"Okay baby. I'm coming."
"You don't know where I am... What if you can't find me? Jimi I'm scared... I hate being alone..."
"I know baby. I'm coming as fast as I can. Just please stay calm."
"Okay..."
"I love you. Please stay where you are."
"I will... I love you too..."
"I'm coming baby. Just hold on." I hang up, grab my keys and rush outside into my truck. I start driving down every road I see.
Karen's P.O.V.
I hang up with Jimi and stand shivering in the phone booth. I'm wet and cold. But at least Jimi knows I'm safe and he's coming. I lean back against the phonebooth and slide down the wall onto the ground. I sit there and lean my head against the corner on the other wall. I shiver more and listen to the thunder and lightning. I sat there for a while until my back got sore and I have to change positions. I lay on the floor and wait.

"Baby... Babe!"
"Mmm..." I must have fallen asleep. I open my eyes as much as I can and see Jimi. He kneels down and checks to make sure I'm not hurt.
"I'm okay..." I start to sit up with his help.
"No you're not baby. You're freezing. We need to get you back home." I nod and realize that I was shivering again. Jimi helps me stand and helps me to the truck. He helps me lay across the front seat and shuts the doors. He runs to the drivers side and gets in lifting my head and laying it on his lap. He holds my hands with one of his and drives with the other. He talks to me trying to keep me away. "Stay away baby. Keep your eyes open. You need to stay awake and get warm. Keep trying to move you fingers and toes. We are almost home. It'll be okay." We arrive home and he gets out and goes to the other side and helps me out. He helps me into the house and takes me up stairs into the bathroom. He starts a hot bath and and starts taking off my wet clothes. "It's okay baby. I'm gonna get you and the baby warm." I look at Jimi and nod. He strips me down and turns the hot water off. "You want me to come in and hold you?" I try and say yes but my teeth chatter and I just nod. He strips and stands in the tub. He helps me in and then we sit down. He sits against the tub and I sit between his legs with my back to his chest and my head leaned back and turned to the side against his neck. He wraps his arms around me and rubs my arms and stomach areas trying to get me warm faster. "It's gonna be okay baby. You're home and you're safe now."
We stay in the tub until I feel more warmer and the water is cooled. Jimi helps me out and dries us off and helps me to bed. We stay naked to spread body heat faster. We laid cuddling each other with blankets on us. I fell asleep shortly after we went to bed.
Jimi's P.O.V.
Karen must have fallen asleep. Her breathing is calm and she's not that tense anymore. I hold her for a while and reach for my phone and text Kim. I told her Karen is home and to tell Rebecca so she doesn't worry. I lay my phone back down and hold Karen until I fall asleep.
The next morning I wake up and look at Karen. She is still asleep so I don't wake her. I just lay here holding her and watching her sleep. I think about our wedding day and how beautiful Karen will look walking down the isle in a dress. I think about our honeymoon and our future. I think about our beautiful babies. How we live in happiness until we are old and watching our grand babies run around the house. Karen moves in my arms snapping me out of my thoughts. She rolls over so she is facing me and opens her eyes and looks at me. "Good morning baby"

"Morning."
"How do you feel?"
"Better... Warm."
"That's great baby. I'm so glad you're safe and okay."
"Me too. I never meant to scare anyone. I just wanted to clear my head and then my car stopped and wouldn't start. I tried to call but my phone died. Then it started storming and I didn't know what to do."
"Its okay baby. You're here now. And you are okay." I kiss her head and think if I should bring up the pregnancy. I don't know if she wants to talk about it. But she is pregnant. And we are gonna have to talk sometime. "How's the baby...?"
"Its okay."
"Good."
"Yeah."
"Are you okay with being pregnant?"
"I am... Its just... We ain't married."
"We will be."
"Yeah... Its just different."
"It'll take time but we can handle it. I know we can."
"We can handle it together right..?"
"Always. I know. It was an accident, but it was a great accident."
"Yeah, I guess it was"
"I love you"
"I love you too"
Karen's P.O.V.
He doesn't seem mad that I'm pregnant... But he also never said much... Was he in shock? Was he not talking much because he didn't like the idea? I hate that I can't read his mind. I wish I knew what he was feeling.
I was snapped out of my thoughts by Jimi cuddling me closer and holding me. Maybe this was a good accident. I rub my fingers back and forth on his upper arm and shoulder just laying there in silence. He kissed my head. "Are you hungry? Or is the baby hungry?"
"We are a little"
"I'll go make you something. What would you like"
"I don't know... I'm not really craving anything... Just hungry for whatever is here."
"Okay. I'll go make you breakfast. I love you"
"Okay, I love you too, and please don't burn down my kitchen"
"I ain't gonna burn nothing down." he leans over and pecks my lips with a kiss and gets up. He puts on boxers and goes downstairs. I find his shirt and put it on and just lay in bed. I close my eyes and just lay.
I must have fallen back asleep because Jimi is slightly shaking me. "Baby"
"Mm"
"I don't want your breakfast to get cold."
"Mhmm..." I open my eyes and sit up. He lays the tray in my lap and moves around to his side.
"I hope you're helping me. I can't eat all this."
"Oh.. I thought you have to eat twice as much cause you're pregnant..."
"I can eat as much as I can... But it won't be doubled... This is a lot of food..."
"Sorry."
"Its okay. Don't apologize. It's great and you did amazing. That's why you can help me eat it" I lean to the side and give him a quick kiss. He smiles and scoots closer.
"I love you" I say to make him a little more happy.
"I love you too." He sits there and takes a piece of bacon. I grab a piece of toast and start eating.
Jimi managed to cheer up once I asked if he wanted to do anything today. He of course thinks like a guy and wants to make out. I can't help but laugh.
"What's so funny?"
"Nothing. You just know what you want... I like that."
"Well... I know what I want. And I'm willing to come get it as well."
"Are you..?"
"Mhmm..." He moves the tray off my lap and to his nightstand. I watch him and he turns back around. "Lay down babe." I do as he says and moves back into a laying position. He moves and straddles my thighs and hips. "I thought this went the other way around...?" He shrugs and puts his hands on my sides with his thumbs on my stomach. He rubs them slightly and leans down hovering above my face. I get antsy and lift my head to kiss him but he pulls back shaking his head.
"Not so fast. I get to spoil you first. You are having our baby and all."
"I am. But you don't have to spoil me. I'm fine and can do stuff on my own."
"I know. But I believe you gotta take it easier now. Just relax and let your future husband take care of you. Plus you also went through a traumatic experience. Which I know scared you and made you stress. Stress ain't good. So let me help you relax." I listen and smile at him and he leans down and kisses me. Everything gets heated and he relaxed me and celebrated the pregnancy... Multiple times.

From the very beginning it was all Toad’s fault. A blundering, quick-talking thief, he was the one who cut a deal with the dangerous Edward P. Owl: track down the ingredients to the Seeking Solution, or else. Twenty-five thousand gorents, he’d said to her. That was all it took for Melena, a lonely orphan with a knack for potions, to pack her bags and join in on the quest. From the majestic forest of Holly-Harp Wood to the labyrinth caves of Dunthur to the frigid waters of the Blackens, they search for Owl’s ingredients. Toad and Melena must face sea dragons, cave monsters, birds as large as wagons, kidnappers, and thieves. Toad’s in it to save his head – cross Owl and start digging your own grave. Melena’s in it to get paid so she can start a new life, one that includes her missing brother. But you really can’t trust thieves. The Orphan and the Thief is also available on Kindle and in paperback via Amazon.com. Thanks for reading!
