18 Weeks

"Don't worry they said it might take a few more weeks before you start to feel the kicking. But those little rumbles you feel is our little Wolfey moving." Aubrey squealed as she rubbed one hand on my stomache and had a baby book in the other hand.

"Look, I have stretch marks. You can't tell me im not fat now because we all know I am. I'm a whale. Might as well start talking me Moby Dick." I groaned laying down on my bed. 

"At least your belly is round so people actually know that you're pregnant. You're not just flabbing over your pants." She laughed.

"My pants don't even fit anymore." I grumbled.

She continued to move her way around my body to check and make sure everything looked normal and it was all okay. She was basically my body inspector at this point. She looked over my body all the time to make sure that everything was okay with the baby and with me since my body was smaller. Carrying this baby if it ended up being an alpha could potentially end up really hurting me. 

"Have you talked to River?" She asked.

Just the mention of his name alone stung still. I wanted so badly to go over to his house and hug him. Kiss him and tell him how much I care but I just couldn't do it. I couldn't bring myself to going over there and trying to work it out. He messed up, not me.

"No ma'am, and I don't plan to." I stated. 

I was confident with my answer. I didn't want River to be around if he was going to be stupid enough to go get another girl pregnant. I didn't want him around if that was the case. But River and me not getting along has put a huge strain on our family. River wasn't allowed at our house anymore, which limited Nate coming over so Tony went over to his house more often. Which left me home alone with Darla and Haydey.

"I can train Darla today if you want to rest." Aubrey smiled.

"I think i'm going to let her skip trainging today. She's been working really hard and she needs a break. This would be the time to do it. She needs time to relax too." I stated. 

"Well Tony wants to go swimming, wanted me to invite you along." She said.

"Of course!" I jumped up with complete excitment. 

I ran over to my room and pulled on my bikini. I stared at myself in the mirror and groaned angerly at how horrible my body looked. Of course my belly was round but I was still fat and I hated it. I hated being big like this.

"Come on Darla." I said grabbing her hand and pulling her into the water with me.

"No Ramona it's cold." She whined.

I sat on the stairs of the pool waiting for Darla to finally give in and get her butt in the water but she didn't want to. She refused to get herself in the water but I didn't see why. Everybody else in our pack loved the water besides her. 

"Come on Darla, it's not cold. See." I said sitting in the water up to my boobs, letting myself relax. 

She walked down the stairs and put her arms around my neck and her legs around my belly, well she tried. I laughed as she tried to hold herself up as I walked deeper into the pool water, slowly letting the water move up her body.

"Ramona!" Riley yelled as the eight year old ran and jumped into the pool after me.

"Hey Riley." I smiled as I tried to set Darla in the water by herself. 

I looked over at the right angle to see River walk in with his swim trunks on. His body looked great, and he looked sexy as hell. I wanted him so badly but I tried to keep my eyes away from him. Clair walked in behind him with her stupid smile on her stupid face. The tingles in my body froze and wen't to complete anger as Aubrey walked over to where I was, taking Darla from me.

"I swear I didn't know he was going to be here." She said angerly as she looked over at River who couldn't keep his eyes off of me.

"So do you know what you're having yet?" Riley asked.

"No little guy I don't. I'm finding out this week though." I smiled as he swam in circles around me. 

I felt uncomfortable pain in my lower back, and it started to move its way around to my stomache. I felt the baby kicking me, and it hurt a lot. I couldn't even stand anymore. I let my feet go and slipped down the deep end. I was in too much pain to pull myself back to the surface. 

I tried to pull with my arms but nothing was going on. Nothing was happening and I was still going down under the water unable to get back to the surface to breath. Why was this happening? I felt horrible jolts of pain in my stomache.

I felt Tony's arms wrap around my and pull me back up to the surface, as I gasped for air still unable to breath. I was extremely uncomfortable and the pain was unbareable. I cried out in pain as Tony laid me down on the ground trying to calm me down.

"Ramona talk to me, what's wrong?" He panicked. 

"Babe listen to me, what hurts?" Aubrey asked leaning over me. 

I grabbed her hand and brought it down to my stomache. I ran it over my lower stomache and traced it to my back. She panicked a little as she pressed down making me almost scream. Tony lifted my head off of the ground, and lifting me back to my feet even though I couldn't stand. My legs were like jello.

"We need to go now." Tony demanded lifting me but he was too weak to pick me up.

"River please help." Aubrey whinned as River ran over to us.

"Oww Aubrey." I cried as I gasped for air.

"Carry her to the truck for us?" She asked.

He nodded in agreement and picked me up bridal style. The pain was still there but it wasn't as bad when River was holding me. He carried me with no hesitation and no struggle. I relaxed against him, and pushed my face against his chest breathing heavily until we reached the truck. River set me down inside and the pain started shooting up my body again.

The drive back to the house was painful and it seemed to never end. They finally got me to my bed, laying me down. Aubrey helped me change into pajamas. I had a tank top on, and a pair of booty shorts with comfortable panties and a bra on. I felt comfortable to an extent but I was still having bad pains shooting up my body.

"Just tell me what to do." Aubrey cried as she looked at me.

"Get-" I began but couldnt finish.

"Get what Ramona? Get what?" She asked.

"River." I replied. 

"Ramona I can't-" She began.

"Aubrey please." I pleaded.

The pain seemed to never end but it was only for about twenty minutes until River showed up at the house and bolted up to my bedroom. He crawled into bed behind me, pulling the blanket up over us and cuddling with me. The pain calmed down some but it was still there and it was still bad.

-----

I woke up to River trying to crawl out of bed without waking me up. It had to be about three in the morning, where was he going? Maybe he was going to go home. Leave me. Again. I let the tears stream down my face as I grabbed his arm.

"River please don't go." I cried as the tears spilled down my face and I sobbed uncontrollably.

He laid back down behind me, pulling me against him. He set his hand down on my stomache and kissed the back of my neck to try and calm me down. 

"It hurts." I cried still sobbing. 

"I'm sorry. I'm trying to make it better. I promise." He said sadly against the back of my neck as he continued to kiss it.

"Please stay with me." I sobbed.

"I'm not going anywhere Ramona. I'm right here." He whispered as I fell back asleep.
