Better Than Words (Book 2)

Chapter 30

"Carly, come get your food!" I call from the kitchen.

She comes running in and takes her plate to the table. "Mommy, where's daddy?"

"He's probably taking another nap in the bedroom, go walk him up and get Brit too. Please," I ask while I fill Zayn's plate.

Last week we came back from the hospital, I took time off of work to take care of the family and help Zayn around the house on what he does when I'm at work. His shoulder is getting better, it's still a bit sore but he can move it more.

I clean off the stove and set the pan in the sink.

"What's for lunch?" A groggy voice says.

I smile and turn around. "Taco salad cause that's the only thing I could find, I'm gonna go shopping for more food later today anyways,"

Zayn holds Brit up on his side while he grabs his plate and brings it to the table. We were maybe ten minutes on eating our lunch when I got this queasy feeling in my stomach.

I ran to the bathroom and threw up in the toilet, I felt a hand go on my stomach and my hair getting pulled into a low pony tail. I cough and threw up again before wiping my mouth and leaning back against the wall.

"You okay?" Zayn asks kneeling down next to me.

"Yeah, I guess. Just probably sick," I respond my face felt like it was on fire.

Zayn exhales as he rubs my shoulder, "I hope you get better soon, stay home and rest today I'll run and get some groceries,"

"Zayn you don't have t-" I began to say.

"Stay home," He raises his brows and helps me up to the bedroom. "I'll bring the girls with so you'll rest easier,"

I nod and smile, "Thanks, I appreciate it."

He kisses my forehead and walks out the door as it shuts behind me. I groan once I lean back on my back but was shot up when the queasy feeling returned.

I ran to the bathroom and threw up again. I felt awful! It felt like I got punched right in the stomach hard by a fist. Again, throwing up I went back in bed and laid down.

Despite the pain I got the chance to take a nap and forget it. The pain to be exact. By the time I woke up my forehead was hot and I felt pale. Just at least the queasy feeling dimmed down. 

Quietly, I went downstairs and sat next to Zayn on the couch. Carly was sitting in her little chair and Brit was making noises as she jumps in her jumper.

"How you feeling?" Zayn asks as he gently squeezes my arm.

"Like I got punched in the stomach," I whisper.

He frowns and took a deep breath. "Your forehead is hot," he says putting the back of his hand then the front on my forehead, "and you're pale,"

"I'll call the department and let them know you're taking a few extra days off," He says quietly, "you know I hate seeing you like this,"

"Thanks babe," I turn around  and laid on my back resting my head on the arm rest and my legs on Zayn's lap.

"Rest as long as you want, I won't mind taking care of the girls. By the way I'll give them a bath tonight." He notifies me.

I slowly nod and closed my eyes once again.

~~~

The past two days I've been sick and throwing up in the morning. That's when Zayn headed out with the girls to the park I snuck out of the house and to the store and bought a pregnancy test. I could be pregnant again. But I'm not gonna take the test to soon, I'll just wait until I feel like I'm ready.

All I have to do is try and hide it from Zayn, if it turns out thst I am pregnant I want to surprise him. Once I got home I went into the bedroom and into the closet when I found a box and stuck it in there.

'I'll probably come back for it tonight' I said to myself. I should try tonight, Zayn will be downstairs playing with his Xbox he recently got.

My heart quicken at the thought of me being pregnant again. I mean I'm not scared...I'll be happy if I am, it's just that I wanted to at least try and wait until Brit was at least 2. Anyways, I ran downstairs into the living room when I saw Zayn's car coming down the road turning on Netflix and finding my absolute favorite tv series Teen Wolf acting as if I was here the whole day.

The door was opened by Carly as she ran up the steps and over to me.

"Mommy! I found a feather!" She cheers showing me a white fluffy feather.

"Wow, that is a beautiful feather sweetie! Go put it in your room in a safe place." I tell her giving her a kiss on the cheek.

Then my lips met Zayn's.

"Feeling better?" He asks sitting down next to me.

"Lil' bit. My back hurts and I'm starting to get cramps." I grin.

The hours went by until it was time. Zayn was already downstairs in the basement on his xbox and I went upstairs to get the test then went into the bathroom.

I waited a few minute until the results came in.

"OH MY GOSH!"  I whiper-yell to myself.

Quickly, I ran downstairs with the test in my hand and went into Zayn's little gaming room.

"Hey babe?" I smile, hiding the pregnancy test behind my back.

"Yeah?" He asks looking up from the gaming console.

"Catch!" I say tossing the test into his hands.

His eyes grew wide and a smile spread across his face.

"I'm pregnant!" I beam.

Baby #2 (talking about the babies she actually carried) is on his/her way! I was waiting for this moment. Maybe that's why my writing sucks? Lol nah. Anyway, there will be a third book but again it'll be the last one.

See you in the next book!
