Pregnant By A Gangster

Ch.6 Not Thinking

CHANELLE'S POV.

It's been a good 4-5 weeks since my brothers wedding. Things with me and Jovanny have been pretty good. BUT, since the wedding, I haven't seen him. We text but only when he isn't busy. So we text about once a week. The day after the wedding we saw each other but for only like 10-15 minutes, and it was kind of awkward.

Maybe because we were around our family and they have no clue. Or just the night before we had hard core sex. But anyways, Him and his dad and my dad and brothers are taking care of business. So none of them have been around.

I've been home alone most of these days. I can't call or text Jovanny cause he's always busy. But he calls me to say goodnight every night. Today I wake up feeling sick but STARVING! I roll out of bed and go downstairs to the kitchen where I see Stella cooking. "good morning" she says to me. "morning, um what are you cooking?" I ask as I slowly walk over to her.

"bacon and eggs, I was gonna take it to your room but I guess you woke up a little early today" she says with a smile. "yeah I uh, couldn't sleep" I say as I look down at the pan nauseated. The strong smell of the bacon and the way it looks makes me wanna, throw up. I cover my mouth and run to the restroom downstairs. I vomit my guts out.

I wash out my mouth and go back to the kitchen. "are you okay hun?" she asks me with a concerned look. "yeah I'm fine it was just the, ugh smell of that bacon and it's all gooey looking" I say as I pour myself a glass of orange juice. "the bacon?..." she asks quietly as she scrunches her eyebrows in a thinking sort of way. But I ignore it. "I'll just order some food Stell it's okay" I tell her as I pick up the house phone.

I call up my dads friends restaurant, "Big Jim's" and order breakfast. 2 caramel banana nut muffins, sunny side up eggs, hash browns, sausage, a biscuit, and some mixed fruit. I'm their favorite customer so my food always gets here super fast. While I wait I eat some chips. "did you order food" Stella asks. "yeah?" I reply as I eat one more chip and put the bag away.

"then why are you eating chips missy?" she asks as she purses her lips. "because I am starving!" I say as I leave the kitchen and go upstairs. I wash my face and put my hair into a nice pony tail. I hear the door bell ring and go back downstairs. I see Stella at the door getting my food. "here you go Chanelle I already paid the tab" she says as she hands me the bag. "thanks!" I say with a big smile.

I go to the kitchen table and begin eating my food. I devoured it all in about 30 minutes or less. It was SO good! Once I'm done I go upstairs and shower. The whole time I was feeling nauseous again! Right when I stepped out of the shower I ran over to the toilet and threw up. Ugh I hope I'm not getting sick or didn't get food poisoning or something! I change into a gray t-shirt and leggings. I wrap my hair up into a bun and grab my laptop and phone.

I walk downstairs to go outside. "hey Chanelle are you alright?" Stella asks me. "yeah why?" I ask her as I open the sliding door leading to the backyard. "I heard you throwing up again" she tells me. "I'm fine Stella, you think you can bring me some Spinach and cheese dip that's in the fridge and pita bread, but make sure you warm up both of them, and um, a Pepsi!" I say with a smile then go outside.

I sit at a table that has a umbrella above it providing shade and set down my laptop. I put on some music from my phone and go on my laptop to do some online shopping. Stella brings me what I asked for and sets it down on the table. I eat, shop, and listen to music. After about 2 hours Stella comes outside.

"I'm going to the store to get some things for dinner do you need anything?" she asks me. "umm anything sweet like some Oreos or icecream and oh what are you making for dinner?" I ask her. "I was planning on spaghetti and salad" she tells me. EW. "can you make chicken, salad, and um baked potatoes instead? I've been craving all of that for like 3 days now!" I tell her.

"umm yeah sure" she says in a weird way. "um anything else?" she asks. "no that's it, thanks Stell" I tell her. She nods and slowly walks away. She is acting so strange today. When I'm done online shopping I go upstairs to my room and watch movies until I fall asleep. After a couple hours I wake up to Stella calling me. Yes! Dinner!

I quickly go downstairs and see 2 plates set up on the table along with drinks. "mmm this looks good!" I say as i sit down. "thank you" Stella responds with a smile as she sits as well. "oh! before I forget, your mother called, she's gonna be back on the 31st and you two will go on your annual trip to Greece" she tells me. "oh okay" I reply. Yay! I'm so excited! i won't be on my period so I can enjoy the beaches!

I chew my food but then stop, my period. "Stella what's today?" I ask her. "it's the 28th" she tells me. The 28th??? I was suppose to get my period 2 almost 3 weeks ago! "something wrong?" she asks concerned. "um" is all I'm able to say. "no, um no" I say quietly. "Chanelle, can I ask you something?" she says. I nod. "are you, pregnant?" she asks. My heart drops and I freeze. That never even crossed my mind.

"no! no I'm, I'm not pregnant, I, I can't be..." I say quietly then trail off. Stella just looks at me worried. "why would you ask that?" I look at her and she looks down. "you threw up 2 times this morning, you're eating like crazy and-" I cut her off. "Stella, my period is 3 weeks late, I think I need to buy a pregnancy test" I sigh.
