The Unhappy Bride

Month two

"Mike come on I have to the doctor." I said as I walked to the elevator. He was taking forever and I can't be late. He came out of the room and met me at the elevator. Now we were on the way to the doctor. Today I get my ultrasound. Dr. Malcov was my primary and family doctor. He wasn't seeing me today, my sisters OBGYN was seeing me today, Dr. Cooper.

I walked into the office. Mike signed me in. We waited ten minutes in the waiting room beofore I was called back. I had to give a pee sample then she checked my height and weight.

I gained almost eight pounds. We went into a room. The nurse took my vitals then propped me up and the doctor joined us.

"Hello Mr. and Mrs. Austin. I'm doctor Cooper." She shook our hands. "I'll be doing your ultrasound." She got the gel and rubbed it on my stomach. She turns the lights off and began to show us the baby. We seen the babies little feet and legs. Mike was so happy. I smiled as he grabbed my hand. The doctor took a few pictures and we talked about my body.

"Makayla I see you gained weight, that's normal and do you feel any different, is everything okay?"

"Yes just weird cravings, and weight gain, but that's normal right?"

"Yes that's normal." She laughed.

"Okay."

"Alright I'll see you next month." She said as she left. Mike and I went to lunch. We went to Ruby Tuesday. I loved their salmon.

"I feel like a pretty hippo." I laughed as I began eating.

"Kayla you look fine."

"Thank you Mike, don't forget we have to talk to Kyle later this week."

"Trust me I know Kayla." He said as he began to eat his salad. He had a chef salad. I loved chef salad so I stole some of his. He saw me and laughed.

"Do you want it Makayla?" He said as he pushed it towards me.

"No I just wanted to taste it." I lied. Mike went and got another salad for me. When he sat down he kissed me.

"So if it's a girl do you have any name suggestions?"

"I think if it's a girl Mahala, if it's a boy it should be Mike."

"Really, I like Mahala but what about Nathan or Matthew?"

"No I think it should be Michael Francis Austin the third" He smiled.

"I pray it's a girl." I laughed.

"Kayla I think we should get a DNA test." I dropped my fork as I stopped eating. He was serious. I know why he wants one but I think we need to wait. I don't even know the sex of the baby yet.

"Can we talk about this another time Mike, not in front of people." I said quietly.

"Kayla I think right now is as good a time as any and then that way we'll know if I'm the father or not."

"Well can we all just talk about it. Like me, you and Kyle altogether."

"Okay but I still want a DNA test."

"No Mike I'm not doing that until the baby is born so you're going to have to wait until he's born." I snapped.

"Okay Makayla." We finished our lunch and went home. The whole way home it was silent. Neither of us talked to the other.

________________

Tonight we were having dinner with Kyle to talk things over about the baby. This time I wasn't nervous, I was ready. Mike and I had cleared things up since we had lunch the other day. We're going to get a DNA test when the baby is born. I still don't like the idea but we had to make a decision.

"Mrs. Austin someone by the name of Kyle is here to see you."

"Send him up." I replied. Elevator doors opened and there he was. Kyle sat in front of me and Mike sat next to me.

"So... Is there anything you want to say Makayla." Mike said.

"I don't want to talk to you."

"Makayla I'm sorry. I was hurt then too, so please forgive me. I said it out of anger I didn't mean it."

"What Kyle, what do you have to say to me?"

"Do we have to talk in front of him?" He said as he pointed to Mike.

"He is my husband and anything you can say to me you can say it to him." I was a little tense. I began to shake. Mike noticed that I was getting tense.

"Makayla calm down." He said as he grabbed my hand and kissed my cheek softly.

"I'm alright honey." I said as I turned back to Kyle.

"So are you really pregnant?" He asked.

"Yes I'm two months pregnant Kyle and you might be the father." They all paused. Everyone was silent for a moment. They didn't know what to do or say. Kyle was red and Mike seemed to be okay. I knew he was a little upset at the possibility that he was or wasn't the father. I hate that it came to this but we had to do it.

"Well when do you find out, or do-

"I don't know but we're going to get a DNA test after I have the baby."

"So... You want me to be in the babies life, if it's mine of course."

"Yes." I said. Mike looked at him with a grimacing look.

"Well then, when's your next doctor. appointment." He asked as I seen Mike turning red.

"I'll have Brice get in contact with you." I said as Kyle got up and left.

"I'll see you then I guess bye K." He waved as the elevator door opened. Mike walked to the room. I knew he was pissed. I had to talk to him.

"Mike." I said as I laid in bed next to him.

Yes Kayla." He said.

"He just wants to know baby okay. Nothing's going to happen."

"Kayla I trust you but I don't trust Kyle."

"Mike you're going to be there to, so there shouldn't be any problems." I kissed him as I went back to the kitchen. We never ate dinner. Mike came back out and joined me. It was still silent. We finished dinner and went to sleep.
