Not your typical baby mama-Chapter 296 I Want To Be With You...

The previous day had been quite eventful it was almost unreal, almost like a dream. Getting stabbed and Amy and Zach visiting him when they should be lying low. Xavier opened his eyes to be greeted by a familiar white ceiling. He was still in the hospital.

So it was real. He definitely got stabbed judging from the throbbing pain on his abdomen, he winced trying not to move around. And he definitely put away Nico and his men. That also means seeing Lorraine was not a dream.

But where is she? He looked around and there was no sign of the girl. Did she leave? Before he could think, he had already started sliding off the bed despite the pain.

"Oh my gosh!" Lorraine exclaimed in shock the moment she opened the door to walk in. "Why didn't you wait for me to help you?"

He gave her a pained smile and sat still, waiting for her to come to his side. She took quick steps to reach his side and wrapped an arm around his waist. She looked up at him, "What do you need?"

"Toilet."

She froze. Toilet? Does she have to be there while he's.....? Will she see his thing? Does she have to ho-?

"If you want me to show you, just ask", he countered, guessing her thoughts.

"Excuse me?"

He leaned forward to whisper in her ear, "You just need to show me yours too."

She gasped and released herself from him. Her face was burning red hot and she mastered a pissed off expression. "Oh my God! What are you, a teenager?"

"Instead of guessing what it looks like-"

"Hold it right there Mister, whatever this is", she pointed at him then herself. "We haven't reached that level."

"Then let's talk about it once I get back from the bathroom, maybe some things might change", he offered. Seeing that she wasn't denying things, he continued, "unfortunately, you won't have to be there to see it."

"It's not unfortunate. Go already", she huffed.

"Definitely still the shy Lorraine I know, but not soft anymore. Hmmm...." He dragged the IV along with him before he disappeared into the bathroom.

He smiled to himself, he was so foolish to stay away from her seeing as how he was enjoying these moments with her. Now he just needed to rehearse what he wanted to say the day before.

After a good ten minutes he did not realize had gone by, he exited the bathroom to find Lorraine standing by his bedside. He recognized how tense she looked, probably nervous about the talk they're about to have. So was he, but he decided to break the ice.

"Are you sure it's not unfortunate that you didn't get to see my di..."

"Xavie!" f𝐫ee𝘄ℯ𝚋no𝐯𝐞l.c𝘰m

Someone called his name, but it wasn't Lorraine. He looked towards the door and saw two familiar figures. "Mom!"

"You foolish foolish boy!" Victoria rushed towards him in years and started to examine him. "Where did you get hurt? Who did this to you?"

"How could you hide this from your mother?" Stella frowned. "It stressed her out, she barely got any sleep. Look at her."

"Her skin looks too good for someone who 'barely' got any sleep. Did she put you up to this?"

"You!" Victoria smacked his arm as she glared at him.

"Ow! Mom! One injury is enough and, not in front of Lorraine", he hissed.

"That's Lorraine?" She whisper shouted before giving the girl a snobby side eye, not wanting to talk to her. "What's she doing here?"

"She's taking care of me."

"Don't expect me to like her just because she's doing the needful", she grumbled.

"And she's pretty too", Stella added.

Xavier tried not to smile, he knew his mom was already impressed but she was putting up a front. "Lorraine, this is my mom Victoria, and my other mother, Stella. She's Amy's mom. But they're both leaving."

"Xavie..." Victoria protested as he spun her around, trying to usher her to the door.

"Who let you two come here anyway?"

"That's not important."

"Mom, you should be home, taking care of Dad not doing this. Stella, I thought you were the sensible one."

"I am. That's why I had to accompany her."

"Not that you were curious about 'other things'?" He arched a brow. She knew by 'other things' he meant Lorraine. She looked anywhere but at him, hating that he saw through her. These women. "I bet Zach, Richard and Dad don't know you left the house."

Silence. Seeing how frozen they were, he had hit the nail on the head. Both women turned to face him with a pleading gaze. "You wouldn't?"

"Leave."

"Call me at least every hour to update me on how you're doing", Victoria pleaded.

"Once a day is all you'll get."

"What a jerk", she grumbled and looked over at Lorraine with a snobbish glance. "Take care of him for me."

"Of course", she answered politely.

Both women gave him a hug each before they left. Lorraine managed to catch a smile from Stella before the latter closed the door behind her. Lorraine could finally let out the breath she was holding.

"Wow... That was...."

"My family."

"Interesting.... was what I was going to say", she smiled.

"Could you help me into bed?"

"You seemed to have the strength to push your mom out of the room just now."

"I may have reopened my wound in the process."

She was not sure whether to believe him but minutes later after he convinced her to get the doctor, she stood in disbelief seeing the blood on his wound get cleaned up. She looked away when the doctor redid a few stitches.

"Finish up. This must have been painful", the doctor commented as he put away his tools and took off his gloves.

Xavier only smiled as a nurse handled the task given. Lorraine turned around to find him looking at her.

"Mr. Frost, please refrain from any strenuous work. We don't want a repeat of this or any scarring."

"Of course. Thank you doctor."

The doctor and his team left the room leaving the two alone. "You look pale."

"I'm not exactly fond of seeing blood on my body", he said with a soft chuckle.

"Why did you do that? Why don't you want your family around when you're hurt?"

"I needed to convince them that I was fine, you saw how my mom was. And secondly, there are two main reasons why but I'll only tell you one: I want to be with you."
