Dexlynn (Dex) made a huge mistake with an asshat. A huge mistake. He was ready to start college the next fall and really get his life going until one idiotic night changed everything. Now he was stuck. Stuck with the asshole who got him pregnant.
Fuck. This. It's hot as hell out and I'm 8 months pregnant. Elliot told me not to go out during the day when it is super hot but I wanted ice cream so bad and I didn't want to bother Elliot while he was at work. So I waddled my way out of the apartment and down the street to the convince store that sat on the corner. "Hello Dex!" The old man that ran the store sat behind the counter with a fan pointed directly at him. "Hello Mr. Waller." I gave him a smile and waved. I guess I've been in here enough that he knows my name and I know his. "When's that baby coming?" I laughed a little as I picked out what flavor I wanted. "Hopefully soon! He can come out right now and I would be happy!" We both laughed a little and I walked up to pay. He scanned my items and put them into a bag. "Tell your guy I said hello!" "I sure will!" I began to walk out of the store when I felt a sharp pain in my lower back. I leaned onto the wall for some support trying to balance myself. "You alright there?" I nodded my head quickly. "Yep! All good." I continued on my way out and once again waddled back to the apartment. As soon as I opened the door I was met with an angry Elliot. "I told you not to go out. It's way to hot." I pushed past him waving him off. "Oh hush I wanted ice cream." "You should have called me and I would have gotten you some." "You were busy." "How would you know? You didn't call and ask." The same sharp pain came again and I grabbed onto the counter. "Never go out in this heat. Call me. What would have happened if you got to hot and collapsed? Huh?" He continued to babble on and on about a bunch of hypothetical what ifs. The pain became more and more intense. Then it would subside then come back a couple minutes later. "Are you listening?" "Elliot..." It hurt. My stomach hurt. "Listen to me Dex! I don't want you getting hurt!" "Elliot!" He finally stopped talking. I groaned and held onto the counter for dear life. Elliot rushed over holding onto me. All the sudden a felt some relief but then some more pain. Drip. Drip. Drip. Both Elliot and I looked down. My water broke. MY WATER BROKE. I snapped my head up at Elliot. "Oh my god." "Hospital...we should go to the hospital, right?" "Yeah..." Elliot's eyes were wide and I couldn't tell if he was scared or excited or both. "We didn't pack a bag or anything! We never sat the nursery up! We have the stuff we just never did it! I can't believe we never did it! We don't even have a room for the baby! Oh my god Elliot!" "DEX! Calm down! It's ok. We will call Tyler and Cate and ask them to set it up for us. Cate loves that shit. And for a bag...." Elliot grabbed the bag that my ice cream was in and shoved some baby clothes that we had bought in it and a pack of diapers. "There! We have a bag." I laughed a little at him. "We are so not prepared." "Nope! But it's ok! We can do this. The baby is early anyway." "We should go..." Elliot rushed us as fast as he could down out of the building and into his car. I need to call Cate. "Cate..." "Hey! Guess what happened! I found the cutest onesie!" "That's awesome because...my water broke." She screamed exitedly on the other end of the phone. "I have to ask something though...would you and Tyler be willing to set up the nursery for us?" Once again there was another scream. I could here Tyler yelling asking why she was screaming. "OH MY GOD YES!!" Wait... "Elliot, where should I have them set it up at?" Elliot was silent for a minute. "Elliot." "At the new house..." "THE NEW WHAT?!" "The new house...I was going to take you there tomorrow but since our little boy decided that today was a good day to come out I didn't get the chance." "YOU BOUGHT A HOUSE AND DIDNT TELL ME?!" "It was supposed to be a surprise..." "Well IM VERY MUCH SURPRISED!" "I'll send you the address, ok?" Cate agreed and we ended the call. The contractions hurt like a bitch but I couldn't get over the fact that he bought a house. I glared at him as we drove. "It has a nice yard..." "Is that supposed to make me feel better?" "Maybe...?" "It's a very beautiful house I'm sure you will love it. The address is on my phone along with some pictures of you want to look." I took his phone and sent the address to Cate and began looking through the photos of the house. This idiot. It truly was beautiful. It had white siding and a large front porch that wrapped around the house. The part that got me was that all of the accents had been replaced by bright colors. Red, yellow, blue, green. He had literally changed the plain black doors, trim and windows with gorgeous bright colors. Just the way I liked. Sure it looked a little silly but I loved it. A tear slipped from eye. "Do you like it?" "It does have a nice yard..." We both laughed. For a second there I forgot that we were about to have a baby. We pulled up outside the hospital and Elliot turned on full dad mode. He started to run around acting crazy asking the poor nurse a million questions. "Elliot...calm down." He nodded still obviously wanting to ask more. The nurse pushed me in a wheel chair to a delivery room. She asked Elliot to put on a mask and gown and started to prep me. "Would you like to be put fully under or just have the medication?" "The medication. I want to be awake." The nurse nodded and helped me lay down on the table. She gave me the medication and soon after I lost feeling from my chest down. Elliot held my hand the entire time never once letting go. The women who I assumed was the doctor came in and looked fully ready. "Hello Dexlynn! Are you ready to have a baby?" I nodded. "Alright then! Do you know the gender?" I nodded again. "It's a boy." Elliot answered for me. "Exciting! Is this your first child?" We both nodded this time. "Ok! Well I'm all ready, are you?" I looked over at Elliot. "We are having our baby..." Elliot smoothed my mess of hair and nodded. "Yes we are..." "I'm ready..." "Alrighty! You both can ask any question you would like. It will only take about 45 minutes start to finish. Let me know if you feel any discomfort through the procedure." Elliot asked question after question and eventually ran out after about 20 minutes. He then began to talk to me about how excited he was and how he hope the baby would look like me. That's when I realized something. "We never picked out a name." Elliot stopped rambling on and looked at me with a questioning look. "I guess we never did." "You guys better choose soon! The baby is almost here!" Oh my god. I'm going to be a mom. I have no idea how to take care of a kid. What happens if I screw up like my mom did? What if I suck at it and the kid hates me? "I'm scared." Elliot tightened his grip on my hand. "I am too but we can do this...you can do this." He gave me a soft kiss on my forehead. I can do this. I can do this. I can- Cries filled the room and the doctor was holding a gorgeous little boy. "Want to cut the cord dad?" Elliot nodded and the doctor showed him how to. Elliot had one of his goofy grins spread across his face. "He's amazing Dex!" The doctor walked over and placed him on my chest. I gently touched his back. I began to cry. My son. I have a son. Elliot bent down next to us. "He's so beautiful Elli..." "He really is..." Right then and there I knew what his name was.
