Baby Can I Hold You

'Mommy'



'Ignore her'



'Mommy'



'She'll stop.'



'Mommmmy?'



'Ok she's not stopping.' Carrie rolled over in bed as she tried her hardest not to hear Elle's shouts from downstairs. Kelly had placed the pillow over her head after the seconds mommy.



'Mommy' Elle complained as she entered the bedroom. ' ive been shouting forever.'



'Have you?' Carrie lifted her head from the pillow. ' Kelly did you know Elle was shouting for us.'



'Nope...didn't hear a thing.'



'Your both not funny...'Elle stood with her hands on her hips. 'There's a lady in a car in the drive way.....She's just sitting there.'



'A woman?' Kelly quizzed.



'Yep' Elle nodded.



'How she get in the gate.'



'drived though it?' Elle answered. Carrie and Kelly both jumped from the bed at the same time, both throwing on their clothes as they passed Elle at the door.



'It's a big car' Elle shouted after them.



Kelly got to the front door first, peaking out she saw a black Jeep sitting with a blonde woman sitting in the drivers seat.



'I don't know her....you?' Kelly moved out the way so Carrie could see.



'Nope....should we go see what she wants?'



'And if she's a stalker?'



'Then she's a pretty good stalker.' Kelly answered.



'OK you stay here....lock the door when I get out.' Carrie went to open the door.



'Wow wow.....and what makes you think I like this plan.' Kelly pressed herself against the door.



'Kelly don't start with this......just stay here with Elle...please' By the look in Kelly's eye Carrie knew she wasn't going out there alone.



'You stay with Elle and I'll go out there.'



'Just stay behind me OK....if this woman's crazy I don't want you getting hurt.'



'Mark had a point about you.'Kelly whispered before following Carrie outside. They both stood on the step waiting for the stranger to see them, it only took a few moments to spot them. Smiling she climbed out the car.



'Can we help you?' Carrie held onto her girlfriends hand as the blonde stranger approached. When she got close enough she noticed the woman's face was completely bruised and swollen.



'Hi...im ...im sorry to bother you.' She stopped and looked directly at Kelly. ' My name's Jen....I know Paul.' Without saying anything else the woman Broke down in tears.



'Carrie help her inside....' Kelly opened the door back up welcoming the girl inside.



'My Baby....my baby's still in the car.' Jen stuttered before entering in front of Kelly. Carrie watched as Kelly pointed to the car telling her to get the baby. Slowly approaching the car she felt afraid, she didn't trust Paul at all and she knew he was capable of anything. Looking into the drivers side Carrie saw the small bundle in it's car seat, opening the door quickly she gently picked the baby up and raced to the house still not trusting that Paul wasn't near by watching.
