Rose POV

While sitting in class I can't help but feel like I'm going to fall asleep. No matter what I do all I want is to sleep. I sleep, eat, see Isaiah, repeat. This fatigue feels like it's never ending. The morning sickness doesn't help and Isaiah has been a godsend. He knows what I need and how to give it to me.

He knows when I need him to hold me, when to not touch me, when I need a bath. Everything, he just does it as if he can read my mind and he does it. Honestly, I couldn't ask for a better man to have a child with, to be in a relationship with. I'm blessed to have Isaiah and I would break if he isn't my mate.

We still have a couple months until his birthday so I still have hope that somehow a bond will form and we'll be mates. I don't see myself with anyone other than him. He's been so good to me, he's been my rock and I really don't deserve him. I hate knowing I listened to Elodie when she said I should avoid him if I can, that he's not very good. If I didn't listen to her I could've had him so much sooner.

It's kind of my fault as well really. I saw him like everyone else and not the way I should have. The way I do now. He would hold me so gently, his touch so soft and warm. Now I think back on it I think I did like it, I was just intimidated by the fact that he's a hybrid and what everyone said about him. What Elodie said about him.

Just as I was dozing off, the bell rang and I jumped in my seat. I felt a feeling in my belly that made me stop and try to see if I could feel it again. Only it stopped as soon as I calmed down. Maybe I just have wind. Sighing, I get up and leave the class in search of any of my friends or Isaiah. Anyone to keep me awake so I don't fall asleep. I never thought I'd hear the day I'd say this, but I'm tired of sleeping.

Walking in to the hall for lunch, I see Elodie, Yasmine and Gio sat at the usual table. I go over and sit down smiling at them all.

"How's everyone?" I ask.

"Good." Elodie and Yasmine reply. Elodie, now thankfully has somewhat accepted Isaiah and I. Not that it mattered but I'm just glad we're back to being friends.

"What's up? You look really pale. Are you okay?" Yasmine asked.

"I'm okay." I smiled. "I'm just tired and want to sleep but I'm sick of sleeping. I just want this phase to be over so I can actually do things. Isaiah and I need to go baby shopping but we haven't had the chance because of school and I'm always sleeping."

"I wish I could help you, Rose. I'm sorry there's not much more I can do." Yasmine smiled sadly.

"Are you having dinner tonight?" Elodie asked me. I frowned at the odd question.

"Uh, yeah. Isaiah doesn't want me, no I don't want to be too far away from Isaiah so your mum and dad have agreed for me to stay with you guys as long as I need. At least at your house your mum feeds me what I actually need and not shitty salads all the time."

"Okay. I'll ask mum to make my favourite meal. I'm almost 100% you'll enjoy it. If not, I'll make sure she doesn't cook it while you're staying with us." She said.

"Uhm, okay. But that's not quite how it works. If I don't have it I know your mum will make me something or Isaiah will drag me out to make sure I eat while you have your favourite. I don't want you not having your favourite meal just because I'm there." I frown a little.

Before Elodie could reply, Isaiah came in to the hall. His eyes locked on me and he walked over to me. As he got closer he gave a curt nod to the others, bro shaking Gio before leaning down to kiss me. I hummed loving the feel of him on my lips. But more so how he tastes. Don't get me wrong he tastes good all the time, but today I don't want to stop so I can keep tasting whatever it is on his tongue.
