CHAPTER 12
Amethyst's P.O.V.
I slowly opened my eyes, being greeted by the warm and bright sun. I smiled to my self and got out of bed. I checked my phone and saw that there was a message from Nate.
'I just got a message from Mary saying the next ultrasound is in 2 weeks. I'll be back before then. Take care of yourself.' It read. I frowned. Two weeks?! He had to be gone for 2 weeks?
I sighed and sent him a reply.
'Okay.' Was all I said. I wasn't big on texting.
I noticed the time was 7:30am so I started getting ready. I made the bed and walked into the bathroom. I brushed my teeth and took a long shower. I wrapped the towel around my body and walked into my wardrobe. I reached for my usual baggy clothes but retreated my hand. Why should I hide my bump? All my family knows now. I don't care what the school thinks. I picked out a casual black dress that was too big for me before I got pregnant, but now fit perfectly in all the right places.
I paired it with a small denim jacket and my black converses. I brushed my hair and put it up into a messy bun. After filling my bag with all my books and pencil case, I went downstairs for breakfast. I entered the kitchen and quickly made eggs and bacon. "Jaxon!" I yelled. I heard the loud thumps come down the stairs, like every morning.
"Morning," he smiled. He was wearing a plain black shirt that was a little tight, showing his muscles, and dark jeans.
"Wow. You look beautiful," he looked at me. I twirled around and laughed. "Thanks," I smiled. "I don't think I've seen you wear fitting clothing since you got pregnant," he got his plate and sat on the dining table.I got my plate and sat across from him. "I was hiding it before. Now I don't have to," I smiled. "True," he said with a mouth full.
"Has dad already gone to work?" I asked. Our dad got a job at hockey centre recently. "Yeah," Jax said. I nodded."What are you doing today?" I asked. "Well," Jax pushed his empty plate away. "I'm dropping you off to school and then I'm spending the rest of the day with Jane," he smiled widely. I wriggled my eyebrows at him. "Is that right?" I teased. He laughed.
"I forgot to ask last night, where's Nate?" He asked. I looked down at my half empty plate. "He is with his pack. His dad is retiring soon, making him the future Beta. He has some issues to deal with," I told him. He clenched his jaw.
"I know he wants you to join the pack," he stated. I looked at him. "Personally, I see where he is coming from. You'd be around him and so would the baby. His mind would be at peace. Also, your son will grow up in a pack which is important." He told me. "But," he went on.
"It is dangerous. That pack is deadly. I get that they all love each other and shit but that doesn't change how they treat others. I don't want you or my nephew living in that kind of environment," he explained.
I nodded. "That's exactly how I feel." I said honestly.
"Do what you think is right. In the long run, I would love if Nate moved here permanently and you both graduate and build a future together for your family." He said.
"Unfortunately, it isn't that easy." I sighed. He looked at his watch. "Come on. You'll be late," he got up and put both our plates in the sink.
"I'm going to work after school." I told Jax as we entered his car. "Amy," he warned. "Please, Jax! I get bored at home and I just want to do something. Please," I begged. He started the engine and began driving.
"You could do something else!" I said. "Like hang out with Cas and paint your nails or some shit," he smirked.
"She will be at work. I convinced her to come to school and go to work to keep her mind off of things." He nodded."Fine. I'll pick you up at 8." He said. I smiled.
Jax pulled up in front of the school and kissed me on the cheek. "See you later," I said and closed the door. He gave me a final wink and drove off.
I turned around and began forward to the entrance of the school. I entered the hallways in which I started out. The hallways I never thought I'd walk down pregnant.
The hallway where I have fought with Nate multiple times.
The hallway where the four of us; Nate, Cassie, Johnny and I, would meet up.
The hallway in which now, people were looking and gasping at me. At my image. At my pregnant stomach. I didn't feel scared or embarrassed.
I felt happy. Relieved, even. I put on my big smile and walked past, ignoring the judging eyes. I wore the smile that said 'fuck what you think.'"Well if it isn't Fat Amy. Legit." I heard Gabby's disgusting voice behind me. I turned around to find the devil spawn herself, standing in front of me wearing her usual clothing and packed makeup.
"Hi Gabby," I smiled. "Ew," she gagged. Her friends laughed. I fake laughed along with them, earning weird looks my way.
"So the rumours are obviously true. I didn't believe them at first. I thought Nate would be a little smarter than that." She pouted.
"Yeah," I sighed and went along with it. "It's too late to do anything about it now," I indicated my stomach and smiled.
Gabby gave me a weird look. "You're crazy." She said and walked off."Crazy and pregnant!" I yelled sweetly, earning the attention of the eyes that weren't already watching us.
Everyone was staring at me so I raised an eye brow. "Do you all seriously have nothing better to do?" I laughed.
They all stared looking elsewhere. I went to my locker and began putting my bag away when I felt a small tap on my shoulder.I turned around to find Cassie. She smiled at me. "You look beautiful, Amy." She hugged me. I smiled back.
"Thanks, Cas. You too." I noticed her bright sundress and curled hair. She giggled. "You ready for class?" I asked. "I'm ready for class but I'm not too sure about facing Johnny... Or Gabby." She played with her hands. I put my hand on her shoulder. "Don't worry. You'll be fine. We have all the same classes today so I won't leave your side. I promise." I assured her.She nodded with a smile. She hooked her arm in mine. "Ready to face the world?" She asked mockingly. I laughed.
"I've never been more ready."
