Alicia's P.O.V
I laid in the hospital bed. Just staring at nothing in particular. I can't believe what I just found out. As much as it confuses the crap out of me it's like I knew. I wasn't her child. I sat and looked at my stomach and slowly rubbed my growing bump.
"Hello Miss Watkins. The tests we've ran and double checked and everything shows me and my colleagues that you're healthier than the normal sized woman during a pregnancy." The doctor spoke. I processed what he said and looked at him.
"What do you mean normal sized woman? Are you trying to say I'm abnormal?" I asked. He looked a little scared.
"Oh no, I um-um, you know. I meant that you're healthy for a woman of...uh...you know your size." He said. Looking nervous. I didn't want to scare him any linger so I just nodded. I understood what he was saying it was just that he wasn't saying it right. He could've said I was healthy.
"Okay. Well I'm okay. Is my baby a hundred percent okay?" I asked. He nodded.
"Yes your baby is totally fine. And is doing great in there." He informed me.
"Okay. I feel like I'm being stressed way too much, is there something I can do, to help me I really don't want to harm my baby." I said. He looked a bit puzzled.
"There isn't really a medication for stress for pregnant women. But I can refer you to start Yoga courses. That'll help." He said. I nodded.
"Okay. So I'm leaving now?" I asked. She nodded. I got off the bed and slid on my sneakers. And walked out and stood at the nurse's desk. The doctor gave her a sheet of paper and she typed somethings down. I guess she put that in my file. She headed me a referral telling me I need to relax and get at least eight hours of sleep.
"Have a good day. Miss Watkins." The nurse said.
"You too." I smiled back.
I walked out and saw Dallas sitting in his car waiting. I sighed and got in.
"Are my babies feeling better?" Dallas asked as I closed the car door. I looked over at him and nodded my head. He sighed before starting the engine. I just looked out the window and fixed the seatbelt so that it'd be comfortable on me. I then felt a hand grip my thigh. I felt the energy from him surging through me. I couldn't help but look at him.
"How long?" I questioned. He stopped at the red light and looked at me, with a questionable face.
"What do you mean, 'How long' ?"
"How long were you going to keep this from me?" I asked. He started to drive as the light turned.
"I didn't want to keep this to myself Baby. I just felt like I shouldn't have been the one to tell you about things as life changing as that. I wanted to tell you so bad." He said. I looked over at him and I could tell by his facial expressions he was lying.
"You're right about that. But something like that you at least hint to me." I said. After hearing the words come out my mouth I could tell I sounded like an idiot.
"I didn't-"
"I know what you meant. You don't want any secrets between us. And I completely agree. I would say you handled this beautifully. If I was in your place I would've exploded. " he said. I nodded.
"Are they still there?" I asked. He shook his 'No'
"No, Katherine and Megan left. Matthew left when I got back to the house last night. Kaila comes to the house goes to the boutique. A lot." He said. Making me giggle.
