After getting my donuts, well the babies donuts, we went shopping for baby stuff. I got way too much stuff, but couldn't help myself. Axel paid for it all which was really sweet. I even got some new clothes for myself. We got lunch because I was hungry again and then some ice cream. We've been out for almost 7 hours now and decided we should probably go home.
"Can we just sit here for a minute longer? I love the fresh air." I ask him. Looking up at how beautiful the sky was. "Anything you want" he tells me. I smile. Hanging my hands down by my side just standing outside of the ice cream place by his truck. Axel is standing by me and the wind is blowing his smell onto me. He smells good. I close my eyes and take in a deep breath. Our hands brush together and somehow lock. Not wanting to let it go, so I don't. We stand there for about an hour just embracing the world and each other's presence.
"It's been such a good day." I tell him on the way back to the house. "It really has been." He says driving with one hand on the wheel and the other one in my hand. Like we've been together for years. "How are we going to sneak the baby stuff in?" I giggle. "I hadn't thought of that, we'll have to wait for everyone to go to sleep I guess." Axel says to me. It was a good plan. Hang out with them tonight and then wait for them to go to sleep to get all the baby stuff out. Where am I going to put all the baby stuff? I might have to get an apartment or something. I'll have to look when I get home.
Finally pulling back up into the driveway, leaving all of the baby stuff inside. "I'm going to my room I'll be down in a little bit." I tell him so he knows to leave me alone. I don't know how he'll take it when I say I want to move out. It won't be good though.
I get out my laptop searching for any apartments near by. Knowing I'll still be over here all the time just needing more room for the baby.
It's been two hours of searching for an apartment and the only one I found is practically crumbling and not in a good neighborhood. Ugh finding a place is so stressful. Slamming my laptop loud and groaning I get up to get into comfy clothes to go downstairs. I pair of shorts and the T-shirt axel left in my room the night before. Walking out of my bedroom door only to be greeted by axel himself. "You look cute in my shirt." He says to me kissing my forehead. I just smile at him grabbing his hand walking down the stairs. Before entering the living room where everyone else was I pull him to me and kiss him. I've been wanting to all day. "What was that for?" He asks me. "I just wanted to thank you for a really good day." I tell him. Looking into his blue eyes and totally getting lost. I bite my lip because I want to kiss him again.
He must've read my mind because the next thing I know his lips are on mine again. This time with more passion, more need. It felt like if we stopped we would both fall about. "Oh shit." Jack yells. Making us pull apart and step away from each other. "What, what is it?" Chloe says with the other two girls running into the room. Looking down at my toes wishing this wasn't happening right now.
"They were so just making out." Jack says. "No. Fucking. Way." Chloe says. "How long has this been going on?" Mia asks. "Pinch me. I'm dreaming." Skylar says. I can't even muster up any words. My brain is blank.
"Oh come on you guys. You were hoping this would happen. Don't act all innocent." Axel states. "Well you're not wrong." Mia laughs out. "Nice job buddy." Jack tells him dabbing up. Axel starts heading into the living room with me following behind, avoiding all eye contact. The group following me behind me.
"When did it happen?" Have you guys had sex?" Skylar asks. She's a very nosey person. "Do you remember that random guy I had over like almost two months ago?" I ask. They all nod. "Well Axel was jealous and then we had sex the next night." I say just being blunt about it. "I was not jealous." Axel says.
"You were so jealous. Come to know I didn't even sleep with that dude just oral sex." I say grabbing a strawberry off of the table full of different snacks. "What the fuck. This has been going on this long and yall haven't said anything?" Mia says a little angry and sad that she was left out. "Well we've only had..." I stop knowing what was about to happen. "I'll be back" I say really fast running up the stairs. Praying I make it to the toilet before throwing up. The baby doesn't like strawberries I guess.
Everybody wanted to know what was going on and ran after me hearing me throw up. I didn't know until after I got done. Axel of course holding my hair back. Wiping my mouth I stand back up. "Are you okay?" He asks me moving my hair out of my face. I see everybody standing outside of the door. "I'm fine, I promise." I tell him. Brushing my teeth.
"That's why you keep getting sick isn't it?" Chloe asks. I don't answer her. Just continue to brush my teeth. Axel still playing with my hair to make me feel better. "What do you mean?" Skylar asks her. "You really are blonde. She's clearly pregnant. They had sex almost two months ago and for the past two weeks she's been throwing up. I hear her in the morning throwing up." Chloe states.
"Is it true? Are you guys going to be parents?" Skylar asks me. Everybody waiting for the answer from one of us. We look at each other and smile. A tear springing to my eye. I nod my head yes. And all the girls rush over to me hugging me telling me congrats. And jack dabbing up Axel just like earlier. "You're going to be a great dad buddy." He says which makes me smile more because Axel really is going to be good dad.
"Well since everybody knows now, I might as well tell you." I say. Everybody looking at me even Axel because he doesn't know. "I'm moving out. I have to. I have to have more space for the baby you know." I say holding my belly. It's kind of a habit now.
"No you don't have to we'll make room. We can put up a shower curtain. Or you guys can move into Axel's room and make this a baby room." That really wasn't a bad idea but I'm not comfortable enough to do that with Axel. "Eh. We only just kinda started dating." I say cautiously. "You know I love you. And j I would be more than happy for you to stay in my room. It doesn't have to be tomorrow, but sometime in the next few months when you do feel comfortable." Axel says. "If you stay here we can all help you with the baby too. We're family." Skylar says. With the girls nodding in agreement.
"I mean it would be easier to just stay here. Plus we already bought a whole bunch of baby stuff and I have no where to put it." I say.
"You bought baby stuff? Let's go bring it in. Instead of a drinking game we'll rearrange everything?" Mia says. I hesitate because that means I'd be moving in with Axel tonight. Even though he's right next to me it's still a big step I feel like. I look up at him questioning with my eyes. "Please?" He asks grabbing my hand and kissing it. "Oh wow he really is in love." Chloe says. "I've never seen him like this." Mia says.
"Okay." I say. "Okay?" Axel says. I nod yes ignoring the girls making a big deal out of it. The girls run so fast out to the truck already getting the baby stuff out. We spend the whole night moving my stuff into axels room and setting up the baby stuff.
