But I wanna thank everyone who reviewed which is mainly why I updated :) I actually felt really guilty when more and more people would review and favorite this story cause it's been so long =/ enjoy and sorry for the lame title.
I stood in front of a shopping rack in a well known shopping store as I glanced through the different varieties of clothing. I was occupied by Demi as she stood next to me. We were discussing a topic that had been bothering me for quite a while.
"Demi, I just don't know how to tell him," I told her, as I pulled out something that I though would fit me. She looked at me, flipping her aviator shades on top of her head so I could see into her eyes.
"Miles, you and Nick have been dating for 2 years already! We just finished college, I really don't think this a problem, there's noway in hell Nick's gonna be upset, he'll probably be overjoyed," my best friend argued, trying to convince me, but nothing was gonna work.
"That's the whole problem! I don't think now is the time to have another baby okay. I'm scared he'll be upset." I looked down at my stomach, I was already 4 months pregnant and somehow I managed to keep the pregnancy from Nick and that's why I was shopping today, for maternity clothes. I felt Demi grab a hold of my hands, making me look up at her.
"Listen to me. Was Nick mad about you being pregnant nearly 6 years ago? No! He wasn't, I'm sure he ain't gonna be now either. Joe was so happy when I told him I was pregnant with Tyler and at that point we had been dating for about a year Mi, Joe's not even one that's be good taking care of a child but he's amazing right now." It was true Demi and Joe recently had a baby boy by the name of Tyler and he was adorable and I guess I really had no reason to be this scared but I guess the fact that I left before was getting to me again. I couldn't help but worry myself.
I sighed. "I guess, I'll tell him later today, he's coming back from his radio tour and I'm excited to see him," I said. Demi smiled, and picked out a couple of items of clothing before walking into a changing room. I soon followed in her direction and into a different changing room with some clothes. Not much later we were on our way to my home that I lived in with Nick and Kayla as we sat in the car in silence.
"Is Nick gonna be at the house when we get there?" Demi broke the silence with her question, glancing at me from her cell.
I nodded. "He's supposed to be," I informed her as we hopped out of the car I got as a gift from my lovely boyfriend a couple of months ago, leaving on bags in the backseat. My car was parked being Nick's, so I assumed her was already in the house, waiting patiently. Demi and I both walked up the sidewalk before sticking the gold key in the key hole in the door as we stepped in.
I could just barely hear the distant talking of Nick, making me think he was in our bedroom. I turned to Demi, smiling a little bit. "Are you staying here or...?" I questioned. She immediately shook her head.
"No thanks, I'm gonna head home..wait I didn't bring me car," she said as if panicking. I let out a small giggle.
"Just call Joe, and while you do that, go sit in the living room," I grabbed a hold of her bare shoulders and pushed her towards the archway leading into the visible room. As I did that, I yelled, "And make sure you grab your bags out my car before you leave." I watched her turn around and grin at me as she rolled her eyes before I descended up the long staircase with a little trouble.
Upon walking into the open bedroom door, I saw Nick set his cell phone down on the bed side table. I knew that he didn't seen me since his back was turned away from me. I slowly walked over to the side of the bed where Nick was in stood in front of him.
He looking up at me, smiling widely. "Miles!" He threw his strong arms around my waist, pulling me against him tightly. I hugged back, missing the feeling of just hugging him, I hadn't seen him in a month.
"I missed you," I gushed into his ear, holding him extremely tightly. "So so much."
"I missed you too Miles, no doubt about that."
When we pulled away, the expression his face held told me he was thinking about something and I wanted to know what. I-gently-fell down on the bed next to Nick and cuddled into his side.
"What are you thinking about babe?" I softly asked, looking up at him.
He sighed lowly, wrapping his arm around my side, his hand landing on my stomach. "Miles...you're pregnant aren't you?" If I was to say I was shocked, I'd be lying because I was more than shocked. My mouth formed in a silent 'o' as I stared at him, not even being able to blink. I felt his chest rise and fall as he let out a deep breath.
"I'll take that as a yes," he broke our gaze and looked out of the window in front of us, his thoughts and feeling, I were unable to read.
"You're not mad are you?" my soft voice came, as I timidly asked. I really didn't care how he found out, I wanted to know how he felt about it. For a second, our room was filled with eerie silence but soon Nick shook his head turning to focus on me again, shaking his head.
"Of course not Miles, I've known you were pregnant for quite sometime," he smiled, leaning down to give me a kiss in which I returned happily before pulling away. So now I was sorta curious.
"How'd you find out?"
He chuckled lightly as if my question was a really stupid one. "We've been through this before Miles, I may have been gone for a month but I'm not stupid. I knew all along, there's only so many signs." I nodded, understanding what he was telling me. We enjoyed each others company as we held each other. But Nick decided that he was gonna ask me another question.
"So where's Kayla?"
My eyes closed eyes flew open, remembering that I had left her at Joe and Demi's. "She's at Demi's, why?"
Nicholas shrugged, his eyes closed. "Just wondering." I took the time to look at the clock that revealed to me that it was nearing 6 o'clock and I was hungry. I wondered if Demi would be okay with Kayla staying the night, I wanted to spend some alone time with my boyfriend. I knocked Nick out of his trance as I pulled him by his arm so that he stood. He opened his eyes and watched my as I pulled him out of the room, trailing down to the kitchen. I let go of his hand when we reached the lightly lit kitchen placing my hand on my growing stomach.
Nick wasn't stupid, he knew what I was waiting for. I sat down at the table in the room, trying to relax a bit. The chair was not doing my already aching back any good at all and Nick noticed as he prepared some food for the both of us.
"You okay babe?" he asked softly, as he placed all the ingredients he needed on the counter and thought about how to start. Nick wasn't a cook at first, but he was definitely getting better everyday. He had a family and it was good he was making an effort. I already knew what he was making, making my stomach growl. Me and baby were hungry.
I nodded, finally answering Nick's question. "Yeah, my back just hurts a little bit. Nothing big." He gave a nod, excepting my answer for now. I rubbed my stomach, feeling a small bit of movement making me smile. The more I thought about it, the more I wanted to have this baby. I folded my arms on the wooden table and rested my head on my arms.
"Why don't you go lay down Miles, I'll tell you when the food's ready." I smiled at how concerned he was but followed his suggestion as I head towards the living room. I lied down on my side on the soft cushions of the couch, relaxing so much more. I slowly closed my eyes, feeling myself slowly drift into a light sleep.
When I woke up I found myself in my bedroom, lying on the bed. I yawned a little and glanced up to look at the clock on the bedside table, reading 9:10 pm. I frowned, realizing that I had missed lunch. The loud growl of my growing stomach made me jump. Just then Nick came walking through the door.
"Hey Miles," he said warmly with a smile on his face. He came over to me and sat next to me, puling me onto his lap. He started rubbing my back as I lied my head on his shoulder. "How are you feeling?"
I sighed a little into his shoulder. "I'm fine, just really hungry, I can't believe I missed dinner," I frowned, feeling kinda guilty for falling asleep before we spent more time together. "I wish I hadn't have fell asleep." Nick tightened his grip on her, placing a kiss on my head.
"It's fine," he whispered softly in my ear. "I'll go heat up your food and bring it up here for you to eat okay?" I nodded my head a little bit, smiling at his sweet offer. He swiftly exited the room as I saw against the head board. I lied my arms across my swollen stomach and sighed a bit. I really loved my life. I grew bored waiting for Nick so I leaned over to the bed side table and took the remote off of it, flicking on the tv that was placed on the wall.
The channel was already on the news. I smiled at what was on; Nick was on, they were recapping an interview he had yesterday. I knew he loved what he did for a living and to see the happiness in his expression made me all the more happy, even if we were away from each other at times. I continued switching from channel to channel for a couple more minutes until walked through the door with my awaited food.
"Hey babe," I smiled softly, expanding my arms out to grab the food. My fingers wrapped around the round edges of the porcelain plate, gently removing it from Nick's hands. "Thank you," I said with a smile when he finally let go. He smiled back at me, going over to his side of the bed and sat down next to me.
I started eating my food when Nick spoke up, "Kayla's at Demi and Joe's right?" he asked, glancing towards his phone resting on the nightstand. I nodded my head, too engrossed in my food to give him a verbal answer. I automatically knew he was going to call them, he was pretty protective when it came to our 5 year old daughter. I watched at the phone, dialing the number.
"Hey Joe, it's Nick... Where's Kayla?" And from there the conversation went on. I wasn't gonna spend no time trying to figure what was said on the other line. I finished my food after about 5 minutes and set it on the bedside table beside me. I crawled from my side of the bed to Nick's side of the bed, wrapping my arm over his firm torso, cuddling into him the best I could. After he put the phone down, he looked down at me as I stared up at him.
"Hey babe, have a good call?" I smiled, leaning up a little to place a kiss on his lips. He kissed back passionately before pulling away.
He smiled back at me. "I had an amazing talk with Kayla, I miss her, she's coming back tomorrow right?" he asked. He truly missed her, I could tell with the way he spoke about her and I was happy to nod at him his answer.
"Of course she is." I snuggled back into his chest as he yawned. "You can go to sleep ya know, I know you're tired." He shook his head profusely and pulled me closer.
"No..." he whined like a little child even though he was 23. "I wanna stay up with you." I giggle at his expression, quickly pressing a kiss on his cheek.
"Nick, you're tired. We can hang out tomorrow, just go to sleep," I said. I glanced up at him, already seeing his eyes drooping. He was more tired than I thought. Sighing a little, I let my eyes close as I drifted to sleep.
So I know it sucked but this was the best I could do. Review! please? I was scared to upload this :(
