Forever together- An Alexbelle Fanfic

Chapter 14

(A month later)

It's been a month since Xander and I did it. My period was supposed to happen last week, but it didn't. I didn't get the usual headaches either.

"Babe, I'm going to the store to get food!" He yells from the kitchen. No really, I thought you were going to get squirrels.

"Okay!" I shout back.

I wait until I hear the door close until I head into the bathroom. I search the bottom left drawer for the test. I open the box and follow the directions.

It says to let it sit for ten minutes. After that, I check.

Wait, what? Really? I'm pregnant? I'm pregnant!

"Oh my gosh!" I scream to no one. "I'm pregnant!"

I need to call Xander.

I pick up my phone and dial his number.

"Hello?"

"Hi Alex?"

"Yes."

"Yeah. This is Isabelle."

"What's up, Iz?"

"You need to come home. I have something to tell you."

"Can't it wait?"

"No! Just come home!"

"Fine. I'm on my way."

I hang up and pace back and forth across the room.

A few minutes later, Xander enters the room.

"Babe what's wrong?" He asks in a concerned tone of voice.

.

"Well, um, I, um, I'm - I'm pregnant." I stutter.

"Seriously? And you just found out?" He asks, totally surprised.

"Yes. I called you as soon as I found out." I says.

"Wow. Wow. That's- that's great, Izzy! That's awesome!" He exclaims.

I smile. I kiss him on the cheek. He pulls me into a hug and strokes my hair.

"I love you."

"I love you too."

"Forever?"

"Forever."

"Let me help you with that." Xander says, pulling out the big pot I need.

It's been 2 weeks since we found out I was pregnant. We told our parents first, then close friends. Like, Jack, Jackie, Amandla, Leven, Dayo, Jen and Josh.

We went to the doctor to see if the baby is alright. He said everything was going great, but we would need to see him every 2 weeks.

"I'm pregnant, not disabled." I say.

"We'll you sure act like it." He retorts.

I hit him lightly. I open the fridge and grab the chicken broth, carrots, chicken, celery, noodles and onions. I'm making soup for dinner, and it's gonna be good.

I set the pot on the stove and pour in the chicken broth.

"Jack invited us to their house tomorrow. Said they had 'big news.'" Xander informs me.

"Okay sounds good." I reply, cutting up the vegetables.

I just had a sudden thought. "Xander! We have to have the wedding before the baby comes."

"What? Okay. We should probably start planning."

"I want a summer wedding, on the beach. What about you?"

"Beach sounds nice. How about in August?"

"Ooh! That sounds good! But August is 2 months away!"

"You better start looking for a dress."

I laugh. I can see it now. A poofy, white dress with tulle on the skirt. Knee-length, perfect for the beach.

"Okay. Maybe Jackie, Madeline, Mom and I can go this week."

"Sure. I think I can get you some cash."

I punch his arm playfully.

"Yeah. Now make yourself useful and start putting veggies in the pot." I say.

"Okay." He says. He picks up the vegetables and plops them into the chicken broth. I add the chicken and noodles. "This looks good."

"Yeah. That's cause Im making this, and you're not." I answer.

"Just shut up and stir, woman."

"Don't 'woman' me." I threaten. But I go back to stirring until its ready.

This all crazy. A new baby. The wedding. Crazy
