I went pale and looked at Jon in shock.
"What baby!?" He repeated. I looked down, feeling embarrassed that I had told him this way.
"What did Carrie tell you exactly?" I asked.
"Only that you were in the hospital and were all alone. I think she knew I would come if she told me." He finished. "A baby was never mentioned. Please tell me you are referring to Meredith and not saying what I think you are saying." He said, making me back away.
"Why? Is me being pregnant such a horrible thing? Upset that your child will be a half-breed?" I asked disdainfully. Jon shook his head.
"No." He said, looking up and making eye contact with me. "It's not that. Lacey, why do you always assume the worst, dammit!" He said. He turned around, running his hands through his short hair in frustration.
