Mon Chéri

8 months later...

I sit and I stare at the positive pregnancy test. I look to the next one which is fainter and then the next which the line is gone. I lost my baby. After months of negative tests I lost the one that stuck. I found out I was pregnant 3 weeks ago and I was going to tell Morticia next week when a shirt I ordered for Raven came.

There's a knock at the door and I rub the tears from my eyes. "Mama we gon be late!" Raven shouts through the door. "O..one minute Ray.." I say in a shakey voice. I look at myself in the mirror as I try to fix my makeup. I open the door and I go to find Morticia and Raven.

I fake a smile as I walk up to the door "Im here don't panic!". Tish passes me my coat with a concerned look on her face "Is everything okay Mon cheri?". I nod "Yep..come on we are gonna miss the rides".

I watch Raven on the teacups with Morticia with a grin on my face. Morticia isn't one for rides but with a bit of persuasion she goes. The ride stops and Raven runs back to me. I smile and I pick her up "was that fun lovebug?". She nods and grabs a teddy off me that she won.

I turn around when I hear Xavier's voice "Want me to take her for a bit so you two can have some time alone?". I nod and I put Raven down. The tiny girl smiles at my brother as she grabs his hand "Uncle Xavier can we go cups?". He nods and takes her back to the teacups.

I groan as Tish pulls me into a haunted house "Honey..you know I don't like these..especially when it's not even Halloween for another month". "Oh hush..you will love it" she teases. I sigh "fine..".

I scream and I hide my face in Morticia's shoulder as an actor dressed as a clown jumps out. I sigh out in relief when we walk out the exit...only for a zombie to jump out at me. I scream and I go to punch it. Luckily for the poor guy just doing his job Morticia catches my hand before it hits him.

"Okay no more haunted houses for you my love" She laughs as we walk away from it. I give her a look as I brush my hand through my hair "you owe me a burger". Tish nods and holds onto my hand.

I moan as I bite into my burger "Holy fuck this is amazing". I spot Morticia's pupils grow in arousal as she sits opposite me. I laugh and I look around before speaking "Don't worry tish you can make me moan later".

I smile as I look over to Raven and Xavier. Raven is stood on a table throwing balls into a bucket as Xavier makes sure she doesn't fall. "I can't wait to have another so her kids can have a relationship like that with their aunt or uncle. Wouldn't it be amazing if you were pregnant now my love?" Tish says holding my hand that doesn't have a burger in.

I take one look at her before I burst out crying. Tish stands up and moves to hug me. "I was pregnant Tish...I lost it this morning. I ordered Ray a shirt t..that said big sister a..and I was waiting to tell you till it came." I sob out as my tears soak her dress. "Oh my love..its okay.." she whispers trying to calm me. "I..d..dont know if i can take any more negative tests. M..maybe one more try b..but then I'm done" I tell her as I lean against her.

After a few minutes I calm down. Morticia stays at my side and we watch as Larissa sits opposite us. "Anyone fancy swapping lives with me..I've just had to deal with a 4th student being sick. I stay quiet as Tish just hums. "Tough day?" Rissa asks. "Something like that" Morticia whispers as she looks down at me.

"I think we are going to go back to nevermore.." Morticia tells larissa as I keep staring at a space "can you ask Xavier to have Raven for the night?". Larissa nods and watches as we get up. In the car ride home I feel myself starting to cry again.

We get to the apartment and I go straight to bed. I lay with my head on Morticia's chest as I cry. "Your okay Mon cheri" She whispers to me over and over again.
