She Was Grace

Chapter 13

***three months later***

"Good morning baby" Daniels voice echoed in my head as i was still half asleep. I was entangled in his legs and his hair was a mess.

My stomach has grown to the size of a little watermelon. It seems to get bigger and bigger every day.

Daniel hopped onto the bed beside me and rubbed my belly.

"Today's the big day..." He pecked my cheek "we get to find out the sex!"

I smiled and shot out of bed. Finding out the gender of this baby was on the top of today's agenda. We also had to stop at Walmart to pick up some cheese and pickles... I've been having some weird cravings lately...

I slid out of bed and walked over to my dresser. Almost none of my clothes fit anymore now that my stomachs enlarged quite a bit.

I slid on a pair of tight fitting yoga pants and a loose tshirt that hung over my tummy. I threw my hair into a crazy bun and I grabbed my purse.

"Sorry I look like a bum." I laughed.

"You look beautiful." His blue eyes looked into mine and I felt the slightest bit of guilt.

"We should be going... Appointment's at nine and is eight thirty.

He grabbed my hand and walked me out the door. We got into the car and started our journey.

***at doctors office***

"Grace Sutton?" I heard my name being called from behind the front desk. I was both nervous and excited all at the same time.

"That's me." I smiled and stood up grabbing my stomach. I walked through the door and Daniel followed.

"Here darlin. Sit here and the doctor will be in any minute." I sat on the large bed.

*DANIEL'S POV*

She sat there looking at me. Her green eyes burned holes through me.

I can't believe I'm going to be a father. I honestly have no idea how it happened though. We only had sex once, and we used protection...

I guess it just feels kinda weird of how protective Derek has been lately. He always makes her breakfast and helps her with things.

I mean, yeah, she is pregnant... And maybe he's just trying to be a good friend, but it just seems suspicious.

I brushed the thought off as the doctor entered the room.

"Sutton?" She looked at Grace and Grace nodded her head. Her smile was enormous. It stretched from both sides of her face.

The doctor sat on the computer for a few Moments until the scanner was on and everything was ready.

"Okay, darlin, this is gonna be kinda chilly at first." The doctor spread a type of jelly-looking stuff onto Grace's stomach.

She jolted and laughed. "Woah! Haha, that is a lil cold!"

I smiled at her silliness.

The doctor examined the scanner and finally spoke.

Well, Ms. Sutton, it seems to be you're gonna be a parent of a baby boy.

Her face lit up and I saw tears fall from her eyes onto her rosy cheeks.

She cupped her face as the doctor handed her the three picturesque our baby.

"He's beautiful." Was all she said.
