Gabrielle Morgan
Two months later
"Congratulations you're pregnant." My doctor tells me as soon as she gets back inside the room. My eyes go wide as I look over to Enzo whose eyes are wide themselves.
"What?" I question as I look back to Dr. Flores.
"Yes ma'am, you're about three months pregnant." I gasp before looking down at my flat stomach.
"Three months." I look over at Enzo before shaking my head. "But... i'm not showing or anything." I say as I hold onto my stomach.
I still can't believe this.
"Yes that is normal to some people. With you being three months, your baby is still working its way up to growth. Babies are typically between two or three inches long and some times weight as much as a lemon."
She explains as we both listen carefully.
I still can't believe I'm pregnant right now. Plus three months. I'm so going to kill him when we leave out of here.
"Have you been throwing up, feeling nauseous around certain foods, or had morning sickness?" I nod.
"A little bit but not a whole lot." She nods before writing it down on her chart.
"Okay so here what's I'm going to do. I'm going to assign you some prenatal vitamins. They are strongly advised to help keep you and the baby healthy and help to ensure that you're getting all that nutrients needed."
I nod, taking it all in.
"You need to have a good diet too so don't eat a lot of junk foods. Drink a lot of water to stay hydrated and don't drink many carbohydrates. Those can cause headaches or sometimes nausea if drunken too much."
"Okay."
"And well that's it. I hope you guys have a safe pregnancy. When you're done come to the front to schedule your next appointment okay."
Enzo nods before grabbing my bag and helping me off the table. I look at him before shaking my head with a grin on my face.
"I hate you." I begin to say as I make my way to the front to schedule an appointment.
When done we head to the car. I lean back as I wait for him to play the music and start the drive to his families house.
We're going to tell them the big news.
I hope they're accepting of this and won't think differently of me.
And I really hope they don't pull the whole 'oh she trapped you' bs because no I didn't and I would never do that to anyone.

"Mom! Dad! Sydney!" Lorenzo calls out to his family as we stand in the living room. I sit down on the couch as I hear the footsteps of them all before an energetic little girl comes running down the stairs.
"Gabby!" Her arms wrap around me as mine do the same to her. I kiss her forehead before getting up to hug his mom and dad.
"Mom, sit down over here and dad over there." Lorenzo points to chairs opposite each other making me furrow my brows.
"Sydney come over here." He motions her to her beanbag in the corner. As she sits down, Enzo come my way, holding my hand as he sits beside me.
"Mom, dad we have something to tell ya'll." He begins as he looks between them both.
"We're pregnant, well really Gabby's pregnant but you get the idea."
I take a deep breath as I wait for the yelling and whatnot but it never comes. All that's heard is silence and you couldn't even break it if a pencil broke.
"Che cosa?" His mother is the first to break the silence. It's not a bad what, but it's more so a happy what.
If you get what I'm saying.
"Really?" His dad questions. Enzo nods before looking over at his sister.
"Sorella? Cosa ne pensi di la nipote o Il nipote?" Lorenzo speaks in his mother tongue.
I only got the nephew and niece part because he basically said it's the same thing for granddaughter and grandson too.
One word for four meanings, yay.
"I'm happy. I get to spoil the little thing." She squeals before coming my way. "Have you thought of any names yet?"
"Not yet no, but you are going to help me right?" I question. She nods eagerly before throwing her arms around me.
"How many weeks are you honey?" His mother asks me as she sets a cup of tea my way. I thank her before grabbing it.
"I'm thirteen weeks." I briefly tell her before looking at his dad who hasn't said anything this whole time.
"Papà?" Enzo calls out to his dad. His dad looks at us before grinning.
"Sorry, I was just thinking about all the stuff we'll have to get and the room we'll have to clean out. Oh I can't wait to be a nonno."
I release a breath I didn't know I was holding before smiling. "I agree it's going to be a lot of stuff to do."
A yawn escapes me as I blink my eyes repeatedly. Enzo notices this and tells his family he'll see them later before grabbing my hand and walking us out the house.
He opens the door for me and I get in. He starts the car once in and backs out.

"So, are you excited?" I turn my head to Enzo as we're watching a movie in the room. I nod my head before pausing the movie.
"I am, are you?" I question nervously as I play with my nail.
"I am yeah. I'm with the girl I've always wanted to be with so ultimately, I'm excited."
I nod as I lean up to kiss his cheek. "You're gonna be a good father." I smile.
He rubs my cheek. "You are too mama."
He kisses me before we're watching the movie.
This is what I really love about Enzo. He'll be there no matter what and he makes me feel good about myself.
He's like my best friend and boyfriend in one. And I love him for that.
