2 months later

2 months ago , when i went to my first ultrasound appointment , the doctor told me that i was already a month pregnant. now , i'm going to my next appointment to find out the gender.

i don't really care about the gender. eric says he doesn't care either but deep down i know he wants a boy so bad he can taste it. but either way , we're both excited.

i was laying in the ultrasound chair with my shirt lifted up so the ultrasound tech can put the gel on my stomach. a small bump was slowly growing.

as the ultrasound tech was getting the gel and the system ready , me and eric were looking at each other as he held my hand , rubbing my hand with his thumb.

"i always hate this part. the gel is always so cold." i said to him. he stuck his bottom lip out in sympathy for me. "if i could , i'd trade places with you." he kissed my hand.

i flinched a bit by the ultrasound tech putting the gel on my stomach. she gently rubbed the gel in with the handheld ultrasound device in circles , trying to get a clear image of the baby.

eventually , she found a good spot. the baby's heartbeat was calming in a weird way. me and eric were both in awe at the image. our baby was more in intact now.

"there's your beautiful baby , guys." the ultrasound tech said. "and your sure there's just one?" eric asked her. she sighed. "yes , dad. you ask me that every appointment."

"well , i'm a twin so i'm just making sure." he said as he looked at me and winked. "anyways , would you two like to know the gender?" she asked. me and eric both said yes.

"hm .." she observed the image. "from what i can tell , it's going to be a boy." me and eric met eyes after she said that. a baby boy. wow .. it just hit me i was going to be a mom.

6 months later

it was the day of my baby shower. i was heavily pregnant with the little boy inside me. the shower was basically just a small get-together at the lake house.

veronica , chris , eliza , and eric's mother all came. his dad was too sick to come as usual. the room had navy blue balloons scattered all around. some of them did say "it's a boy!" on them.

nicky , eric's mother , had already made the baby a blanket. i got tons of other basic shit that you need for a baby.

suddenly , we heard someone ring the doorbell. we all looked at each other , confused knowing no one else was invited. i shrugged and went to go answer the door. eric followed behind me , protectively.

i opened the door to see a sickly but weirdly attractive looking girl that looked as sickly as a victoria secret model. she had long black hair. she was holding a mini porcelain doll in her hand.

"hey , i saw the sign outside. i know i'm not invited but i thought i'd just drop a gift by anyways !!" she said cheerfully. the doll was fucking creepy but it's the thought that counts.

i thanked her and took the doll. eric thanked her as well. the woman sighed. "i wish it was a girl though." she said. me and eric looked at each other confused but still tried to be nice.

even though i was the one who was pregnant , she had her eyes on eric the entire time. "mom needs my help with the food. i'll be right back." he kissed my cheek. the woman winked at him before he left us.

i immediately started overthinking. i glared at the woman. "oh sorry .. how rude of me to not introduce myself. i'm marissa wilde." she stuck her hand out so i could shake it.

"katrina draven." i shook her hand. "listen .. i saw you wink at my husband. if you think you got a chance with him , then you're surely mistaken." i said to her sternly.

she giggled maniacally. "oh my calm down .. jesus .." she started slowly walking away from me. "this won't be the last time you'll see me." she said , walking backwards. "you won't be expecting what happens next." she turned around to walk normally.

i was immediately frightened. could this be the threat we've been waiting on? i didn't tell anyone at the baby shower about it , not even eric. i didn't want anyone to worry.
