*MC* *Trigger Warning* I'm sorry... Am I though?
I look at myself in the mirror, no test is needed.
The eight-week bump is prominent on my disintegrated body, I should have known sooner. The spotting was just a symptom of early pregnancy, I was in denial.
Ignoring the red flag, I wash my hands and pull the shirt lower like that will make it disappear from reality. This shit would happen to me, only me.
The hair sticking to my neck is pulled back out of my face by the time I am done vomiting in the toilet, Carter places a cup of water on the counter. He has no idea what is going on.
He has an idea I am having with drawls from the entity's power. Last night, when I wasn't feeling well, he listed off different symptoms he had while the possessed me and not him. They consign with pregnancy.
Congrats, Carter! You are pregnant, with the devil's baby... Ugh.
My eyes are dull, the color is lacking more and more each day. I feel like death, a walking zombie to be exact. I am still not sure when I got pregnant, but from what Carter explained in Hawaii, I was gone for two months.
We had sex the night we reconnected and that was it, that was the last time he was inside me. I don't remember using a condom, my ovulation was not accounted for. I honestly don't know.
Carter hugs me from behind, "you should rest some more before we talk to Belle."
He rubs his hands along my arms, "you're getting sicker by the day." He kisses and pecks me on the lips.
I scan my body secretly one last time, his hands rest unknowingly on the small bump. It isn't noticeable that much. However, I can feel it there.
This needs to be put on hold until we figure out the Montezuma deal. Belle and Kylie will be included in the decision making and I need to get my head straight. No more dwelling on the future of my family.
A choice is going to be made, but it can wait.
"I am okay, water is fine." Grabbing the cup, I walk out to the bed area in the hotel we are staying in. "Let's call her."
Kylie grabs the laptop that she brought with her and brings up FaceTime. She clicks Belle's contact, it starts to ring. Shortly, Belle answers.
"Hey guys," she sets her phone on her car dashboard.
We say hello, "how are you doing?"
"Fine, I haven't seen anything from the hotel in two days."
"It is good to finally see you." Carter brings attention, "without shitty reception."
Kylie and Belle laugh, I don't find this funny. My mood is crashing, I woke up vomiting, my head hurts, and there is an unwanted fetus inside of me.
Closing my eyes, I start to feel sick again. Bile rises in my throat, but I push it down. This is more important.
Quietly, I say hi. It is nice to see her again, I haven't spoken with her or Kylie in a long time. Maybe one or twice since before the whole hospital possession thing.
"Are you okay, Sarah?" Belle asks me.
I nod, "yeah. Since we trapped the entity, I have been feeling sick."
"Hm," she nods.
"You can go rest babe," Carter rubs my back from where he is sitting behind me on the bed. "We can fill you in on the details later?"
