Lydia's P.O.V. (Two Months Later)

I don't understand why pregnant people have to urinate so frequently, so I moaned as I got out of bed to go to the toilet for the hundredth time this evening. I've been waking up every two months to dash to the toilet to either urinate or throw up.

Yes, two months have passed. Since that encounter, I haven't made an effort to get in touch with Flynn or approach him. What my heart dreads to hear. I don't want to hear him say that this baby was a mistake.

Don't get me wrong, I don't have feelings for him or anything like that, I mean it was a liquored-fueled one-night stand, I just didn't think that I would end up pregnant. 

For the first week or so, Mom and Dad were furious with me, but as soon as they accepted the fact that they would soon become grandparents, their rage subsided. Dad has lung cancer, they have been on my ass about finding a boy before I got pregnant. Mom has tried asking who the father is but I'm afraid of what will happen to them when they find out this baby is Flynn's baby.

Sighing I grabbed my things before quickly saying bye to my parents and got into the car for a night shift at the hospital. West Roxbury, Boston, Massachusetts is where I live. It's a nice area, with a lovely view, it was like a break of fresh air almost. I have been living here all my life, and I never want to leave...well, I wouldn't say never, just for now...we'll see after the birth of...what should I call the baby? I don't want to call a thing...or it...what would be a nickname until the baby is born? 

Parking in the hospital parking lot I search up how big a two-month-old baby is compared to fruit, I know weird, but maybe I could think of a nickname from there...  A two-month-old baby....is as big as a raspberry...Berry? Yeah, each month I'll change the name compared to its size in fruit. Don't make fun of me lots of people do it.

A.N/ My grade seven teacher used to do this every week, she used to change the unborn baby's nickname to the fruit size. So each week we would call her unborn baby a different fruit nickname. I know weird...but I thought it would be cute. 

Getting out of the car I grabbed my stuff before checking into the work schedule, I worked night shifts mostly, it was never that busy, 8:00 pm-4:00 am. Maybe some emergency patients come in but usually, it was really laid back, just me and Jordan. My co-worker and close friend Jordan West, we went to med school together and got a job together. But let's just say our friendship was limited to work and school. No one could replace Cassie's spot.

"Look who decided to grace us with her presence ten minutes late," Jordan said smirking,

Rolling my eyes at him I put my name tag on, "Shut up Jordan. I am only five minutes late and I had to go pee like four times before I could actually get in the car."

"Mhm, baby pushing down on bladder too much?" He asked concerned

Leaning against the counter I nodd, "Way too much. I didn't know being pregnant was so hard."

Jordan rubbed my back, "Take it easy Dia, don't want to put too much stress on the baby okay?"

Smiling I say, "Wanna see something cool?" I took my phone out showing him the fruit comparison to the baby, "It's about the size of a raspberry so I decided that instead of every week every month, I'm going to change Berry's nickname to the fruit."

Jordan chuckled pulling me into a hug, "You are so cute, Dia,"

Blushing I pulled away, "Be quiet and get to work. I just heard your pager going off."
