Pregnant With The Nerds Baby

26

Today's the day that Zack moves in. I love the idea of him living with us, It's going to be so easy once the baby gets here.

It sucks that I can't help them move in since I'm not aloud to lift anything. Zack said they don't have much to bring anyway.

Me and my dad set up the smallest room for Mary. I put all my old stuff in it, like barbies and dolls, I hope she likes it. I never really played with them much when I was little.

The room was already painted pink when my dad bought the house, he never got time to paint it. So it's kind of perfect, that now it's Mary's room. It's like the perfect little fairy tale room for her.

We set up a room for Zack that's directly across from Mary's. His room is a lot bigger, with a bathroom in it.

There's not much in his room just a big bed and a tv. I hope they like it, I don't know why I'm so nervous. I just want The best for them, I know they don't come from much.

I see Zack coming up the stairs so I go to him. We haven't showed him his room or Mary's.

He walks up the stairs with 2 big bags in his hands.

"Is that all your stuff?" I ask

"Yeah, this is all of me and Mary's stuff." He says

I guess they really didn't have much.

"Where's Mary at?"

"With your dad, She really likes him."

I see my dad walk up the stairs with Mary on his hip. That was fast for her to start liking us. I'm glad, it will make it easier on Zack knowing that she's okay staying here.

"Hi,Ashley." Mary says to me

Me and her met a couple of days ago. She's so cute, she has really long brown hair that goes all the way down her back. She also has green eyes and a cute little smile with missing front teeth.

"Where am I going to sleep?" Mary asks

"In here" I say and show her to her room

"Oh my god." She squeals when she sees the pink room and toys everywhere. "This is awesome, Look Zack."

"I see." Zack says

"I've never seen this much toys before" Mary says and starts playing with the barbies

"You guys didn't need to do all of this." Zack says

"It's nothing, they're my old toys." I say

I show Zack his room and he loves it. It's plain and simple but my dad told him he could paint it if he wanted, Of course Zack declined.

It's going to he weird having Zack living here. I really like Zack and we've grown a lot closer these past few months, but I don't know how it's going to be seeing each other all day every day.

After Mary and Zack unpacked Miranda called all four of us down for dinner.

I guess we're going to have a full table tonight.

We all sit awkwardly at the table. Me and Dylan usually eat in our rooms, but I guess Miranda wanted us to eat as a family.

We are far from a family, a very weird dysfunctional family.

The chef brings in everyone's plates and it looks amazing. Spaghetti with meat balls and cheesy garlic bread, My mouth starts to water.

Mary puts her head down and says a little prayer before she eats, She's so cute.

I look over at Zack he's just sitting there eating, he look nervous. Dylan's eating while on his phone, Miranda and my dad are talking about work and I'm just sitting alone eating almost all my food within a minute.

"This is so good." Mary says with a mouth full of spaghetti making every one laugh, even Dylan.

Dylan's been kind of a jerk lately. I don't think he likes Zack, This must be a lot for him. He's used to it being just him and his mom, so I can get why he would be upset. It's a lot to handle all at once.

Once everyone's finished eating we all go to separate parts of the house. I go to my room and Mary goes to hers while Zack hangs out with her. Dylan goes to the game room and my dad goes to his office where he's always at. Miranda probably goes to her walk in closet or something, who knows.

I thought my life was just starting to become normal, but it turns out it just got really strange.

My dad just got married to a women that I don't know, I have a step brother. I'm having a baby and now the father of my baby lives with me, with his little sister?

Does that sound weird?

My doors cracked open so I see Zack walk up to it and knock.

"Come in" I say

"Sorry, I didn't want to bother you, I just got Mary to sleep. She really likes it here." He says and sits at the edge of my bed

"I'm glad, I thought she would have a hard time getting used to it."

"I did too, but I guess not. She really seems to like it here."

"Yeah she does.." I say

"I do too. I just don't want to seem like a burden to you guys." He says and sighs

"Zack you don't. We have so much room in this house, it's crazy. You guys needed a place to stay so your mom could get the help she needed. That's what's important."

"You're right. It's just weird having someone help us. No one's cared about us in so long.."

"You've got us forever now" I say and hug him

I don't want him to be down. Things are going good for him, He doesn't need to upset himself.

"Zack I told you no staying in Ashley's room late at night." My dad says as he walks by my room

"Sorry sir." Zack says "goodnight guys"

"Night"
