Wrapped Up

18 • Amazing Things

  Meghan's POV:

  "Charlie!" I yell.

  "What?" he says as he runs into my bathroom with me. I giggle at him.

"I'm okay. Just...look," I say as I gesture to my stomach. We both look at my stomach in the large mirror in my bathroom. He smiles as he realizes what I mean.

  "Baby bump," he says as he wraps his arms around me and kisses my neck.

  "You know what that means," I say as he kisses my neck.

  "Mmh. When are we telling everyone?" I ask through quiet moans.

  "How about right now," he says.

  "Okay," I say I pull my phone out. I pull Instagram up and look at posts from my fans. Everyone is posting the picture of Charlie and I running out to the car about two months ago. I smile as I see everyone freaking out...still. I go on my page and see that my last post was a week and a half ago. I cringe and decide to break the news of the wedding first. I take a picture of my engagement ring and post it with the caption:

  "@charlieputh ...we've got news..."

  I smirk as I post it. Everyone immediately starts freaking out. I giggle as I post, again. I take a picture of Charlie's hands around my stomach and say:

  "We've got more news:)"

  Charlie laughs as everyone starts flipping out. I laugh, too. He starts kissing my neck, again. I moan against him, but I struggle.

  "Charlie, we have to go out in public and make it official. I'm just so excited!" I say.

  "Okay, let's go take a stroll on the streets," he says.

  "Okay!" I say in excitement.

  "Charlie, people are staring," I say as I giggle.

  "I know just stay cool," he whispers. He were at the mall, and we were holding hands. I was wearing a tight, fitted black dress. It had long sleeves and went to about knees length. It was tight, so everyone could see my bump and my curves. My red hair was wavy and in a high ponytail. I wore black sunglasses, and I had a smile on my face.

  We walked around LA for about two more hours. I knew the paparazzi would be all over us. Charlie had kissed me quite a few time, and I couldn't help giggling. We had acted like we were with close friends and family, but we were in public. We had made it public.

-a few months later-

"Holy shit! Charlie look," I say as I yell from my bathroom. He comes running in and stares at me.

"What?" he asks.

"Look how huge this bump is. I've never noticed it until now, but I'm only 7 months along, and it's huge. It's as big as it should be the day before I give birth," I say and look at him with worry.

"To the hospital we go!" he yells and points his finger in the air. I giggle at him slightly as I slip a pair of uggs on and legging. He walks me to the car and helps me get in. We drive to the hospital and walk in.

"Ma'am we bed to see our doctor please," Charlie says.

We are eventually walked to an ultrasound room with my doctor in it.

"Alright, Meghan. What's–oh," she says as she looks at my stomach. I nod my head, and she grits her teeth.

"Let's check this out," she says.

"Am I having more than one child?" I ask.

"Maybe," she says. I lay back and let a shaky breath out. Charlie grabs my hand and squeezes as I close my eyes. I feel the cold liquid and the metal thing on my stomach in seconds.

"You aren't having two children," she whispers. I sigh, but then I see her face.

"What?" I ask with worry.

"You're baby has progressed in a...faster way. Your child is fully grown and you could have your child any day now. Would like to know the gender?" she asks. I stare at her in bewilderment.

"Um, yes, but will there be anything wrong with them–"

"Her," she interrupts. I smile.

"Will there be anything wrong with her?" I ask, again.

"No. This is very rare, but it happens. Usually, when a child is born early, it doesn't survive because of its size and inability to breath because of its size. Your baby, however is fully grown, she's just developed faster," the doctor says.

"No wonder I had so much trouble getting out of the car," I say and giggle.

"That is all. You may stay until you give birth, or you can go home, and you can come back," she says.

"We'll go home, thank you," I say. She nods and leaves me and Charlie alone.

"Charlie, we are about to have a child...and we're about to be able to have sex, again," I say as I look at him with a smile.

"Those are both amazing things," he says as he chuckles and kisses me.

  Okay, so this book is almost over...I honestly love this book though. Thank you guys so so much for 1.4k reads! I just looked the other day as it said 900, but it's 1.4k now! Thank you so much. And after this book is over, I've been writing another book for a while and it's honestly probably one of my favorites I've  ever written. So enjoy;) and the book I'm working on now actually was inspired by another book, but it's Marlie so yes.
