(Demitri's belly ⬆️)
Demitri's POV
I can't hide my belly for much longer..they're getting so big already. Since my last doctor's appointment, Eli's been keeping track of how far along I am to the tee and I'm 14 weeks pregnant...14 weeks already and we still haven't told his parents.
I know why...He's nervous about what his dad's going to say. He's hardly been in Eli's life..but his criticism is going to hit my sweetheart of a boyfriend like a brick to the face. I hate that abusive prick.
On a lighter note, my morning sickness is letting up a bit. Thank God. I don't think I could last too much longer. This morning I only threw up once. Hopefully soon it'll be zero, but I guess right now that's just a fantasy.
School is...strange now. I have to wear hoodies all the time because the baby's gotten so big already. I really don't want anyone to notice, especially the teachers. Most of them like me and I want to keep it that way. I need their letters of recommendation for college...if I still go.
Lunch might be the most difficult part. I don't have a gym class this semester or that would be the worst part.
Anywhore, I don't have the same lunch period as Eli anymore so it's just me and Miguel. Which I don't mind, but..sometimes I need my boyfriend.
Like today.
I haven't seen or heard from him all day and I'm sort of starting to panic. His mom didn't let him sleep over last night so I had to sleep alone, well almost. Little one is a great listener..
Then he didn't answer my texts or phone calls, so my mom had to drive me school. He wasn't even in English today..I had to sit alone.
"Deme? Demitri?!" Miguel yells, snapping his fingers in front my face.
I shake my head, quickly blinking back the tears, "Huh? Sorry dude."
"What's wrong Deme? You're really out of it today..Is it the baby? Are they okay?" he frowns starting to rub my shoulder.
"I-I'm fine." my hands go straight to my belly, "Baby's okay...they're okay."
"You know you can always talk to me D. What's really going on?" his voice is full of sympathy and concern.
"Eli's not here. He won't answer any of my texts or calls. I just have this bad feeling a-and I'm worried, Miggy." my voice cracks at the end instantly making those dumb tears fall.
"Oh honey..Im sure he's okay. Maybe he's sick and just slept all day?" he soothes, his hand gently resting on my stomach.
I shake my head, "No way. He or his mom always tell me when he's home sick." more tears make their way down my face
"Hey, hey...calm down. Stress isn't good for you or the baby. I can drive you over to his house after school? I don't think Sensei would mind if I'm a little late."
"Y-you'd do that for me?" I sniffle wiping my face on my hoodie sleeve.
"Of course D. I'd do anything for you guys." he smiles as he kisses my forehead, "Now, finish eating. My God baby needs to be big and strong."
I roll my eyes at him. Damn Eli's gotten to him.
°~°
When we pulled up to Eli's house his mom's car wasn't there...but his was. What the fuck dude.
After saying a quick thanks and goodbye to Miguel, I knock on his front door.
My nerves are on full blast right now.
