• Baby Gender Revealed!

Chapter 12

[Mia's P.O.V]

Liam squeezed my hand tight as we sat in the waiting room. This wasn't just any ordinary appointment just like all the others, We were finally going to find out the gender of the baby. My nerves were unsettled as today has already gone a different way than planned. Paparazzi finding the location of our appointment and mobbing the outside entrance before we arrived here. How rude of them, does the thought ever go by there head oh wait she's pregnant we should be a tad more careful. Obviously not since they were squeezing in on us the second we stepped out of the car which led Liam to throwing a fit at them. He mentioned something about 'Tweeting how he feels will raise awareness of the ongoing and dangerous situation and his fans will surely not have it' I just nod distantly not understanding the format or use of the website.

Right now i'm more in focus on my appointment than the paparazzi situation. Surely it did have a downing on my day but i'm just trying to stay in focus on the important part of my life and not worry about the struggles that society is laying out on the table right now.

"Liam..." I murmur lifting my hand to his chin turning it away from his phone.

"Just forget about it for a moment..." I continue persuading, my face inching closer.

"Babe i've gotta call someone about the paparazzi they're getting out of con-"

I cut him off with a long peck on the lips. "You've already called the police and that's enough to control them, don't let them ruin our moment."

He doesn't say anything for a moment and stares at my belly and a small smile creeps onto his face.

He pushes his phone into his back pocket and take a hold of my hand again giving a quick peck on my cheek.

"Your belly is so big." He says running his hand over the thick jumper covering my belly. It was a habit of his now even though no kicking was evident yet. He also grew a love for rubbing lotion over my belly when i got out of the bath but recently its become a thing he does anytime were laying on the couch or bed and don't have much else to do.

"I know." I say starring down at the lump of creation growing under my skin

"Did you drink lot's of water last night?"

"No..." I say slowly looking up at him, knowing i had told him i would before going to sleep. It is known to alter the gender of the baby and give a higher chance of a boy.

He gasps, seeming genuinely shocked but not as hurt. "Mia, you told me you would." His voice comes out as a whine and begin to chuckle so hard i have to cover my face for a moment.

"I-i didn't want to alter the chances, i ju-, Sorry your voice was hyserical!"

I try to squeeze out a few words but after a few syllables they are lost in the flood of laughter that i'm trying to keep at a minimal level.

Once my faze has passed i take a deep breathe and look at Liam who has a subtle smirk on his face but the rest of his facial expression is writing out 'give me an explantion'.

"I want it to be a surprise, no techniques to alter the gender, no cheats, boy or girl we'll both be happy about it..."

He dramatically sighs but then looks at me again and smiles. "Your such a softie." He teases.

"Oh i am not." I begin, a hint of guilt behind my voice.

Before he responds a doctor shows up at the door. "Miranda Watson?"

It takes me a few seconds to stand, Liam helping me while holding onto my hand. I feel my nerves tickle me at the pit of my stomach but i try to push them away as this should be a happy memory, not a nervous one.

Just as the other appointments i am instructed to button down my jeans and lift my shirt. They ask the usual questions and proceed to pool cool jell on my stomach. My nerves were now returning but i could feel Liam's hand shaky in mine as well. I look up at him and he is biting his lip nervously watching the machine for any signs yet. When he notices me looking he grins and dips his head to kiss my forehead.

"Don't worry so much.." He mumbled and i find myself laughing again.

"I could say the same for you Payno."

The nurse looks up, smiling at us and lets a small chuckle escape her lips too.

"Your baby seems healthy so far, and it's heart-rate is 141.."

"Would you like to know the gender?" She asks knowing that is exactly what we were waiting to hear, the hint of smile on her face shows such sweetness and happiness almost as if she had been in this position and it's like she is living it through us. I look over at Liam and he glances at me quickly i give him a soft nod and a smile and he returns it before giving the nurse an assertive nod to the nurse.

She moves around the machine on my stomach a few more times before looking up at us...

"Congradations...you will be having a beautiful and healthy baby boy."

I didn't realize i was holding my breathe in until i exhale deeply and feel weights lifted off my shoulder, tears blur my vision instantly and i try to laugh it off but the tears come faster than expected. Liam stands from his chair and wraps his arms around me for a moment then kisses the still tears on my cheeks.

"See, i didn't need to drink tons of water to have a boy." I say.

He chuckles. "I know..."

"We're quite the giggly bunch today aren't we?" He points out.

"Yeah, we're special like that..."
