Chapter 26: eep

"There is nothing you can do about it!" I yelled at dad

"Yes there is!" he yelled back

"But it's my choice" I snapped and he glared at me. Then at Mackenzie

"Hey now. Stop fighting" Lindsay butted in "its not good for the baby" dad smiled. I maybe forgot to mention that he was completely cool with it. In fact he probably pushed me towards it. He really liked the idea of being a grandad. He was there the whole time when I had to get the... embryo... is that why you call it? but anyway. He was there the whole standing safely at the top of me as to not see my privates. You know. Girl thing.

"Come on please" he pleaded "just keep it a surprise" we were fighting about the ultrasounds. I wanted to know if the baby was going to be a boy or a girl. But dad on the other hand, wanted to keep it a surprise. But I didn't want any surprises. It was my first ever time even thinking about a baby let alone having one. So it was obvious that I wanted to be prepared.

"Where's Mackenzie by the way?" Kayla asked. I laughed at this. Mackenzie was going to tell Lauren about all of this. And since I was starting to get bigger. Then she is going to be angry that she wasn't told sooner.

"Delilah!" speak of the devil. She burst through the lounge room door with fury in her eyes. Mackenzie came running from outside

"Mum calm down" he held his hands up in front of her defensively. But as soon as she saw my stomach her eyes instantly lit up.

"Oooh. This is so exiting!" she cried as she pushed Mackenzie out of the way to embrace me

"I'm so proud of you" Lindsay looked at my dad as if to ask 'who the hell is she?" my dad rolled his eyes and dismisses her with a wave of his hand

"Lauren" dad smiled "how nice to see you" she turned around, still holding me by the way, and her mouth dropped when she saw my dad

"William" she said slyly "the devil has returned" she let go of me and punched dad in the arm. In some way, they were like me and Mackenzie. They'd been friends for as long as me and Mackenzie had been. She sat next to him and they started talking about the 'good ol' days'

"Hey. I've got a surprise for you two" Lindsay smiled and grabbed me and Mackenzie and pulled us towards the stairs

"Wait wait!" I cried and struggled away from her grip

"What what?!" she asked loudly

"I am pregnant" I told her. Kind of offended that she forgot "you can't just pull me up stairs!" she laughed at herself

"Sorry sorry Hun" she apologised and helped me instead of pulling me. She pulled us into the spare bedroom at the end of the hallway

"What the hell are we doing in he..." before I finished I realised what we were doing in here. It was so adorable! she had taken all the furniture out and reprinted the room. Instead of the bleak white walls, they were sky blue with white clouds on them. On the roof was an atmosphere mural. It looked amazing.

"Lindsay it looks amazing!" I cried and she grinned.

"That's not all" she said evilly. She drew the curtains and flicked off the light. The room was still lit though. She had glow on the dark stars on the roof! it looked so cool!

"Thank you" me and Mackenzie said together. We looked at each other then laughed.

"You two are just adorable" Lindsay laughed and turned the light on.

"Come on kids!" dad called from downstairs "it's time to go!" Mackenzie smiled at me and took my hand. Alright. Time to see my baby. No not Becky's baby. Mine and Mackenzie's.

"So that's the head" the nurse pointed to something on the screen "and that, is his um... boy part" I couldn't stop smiling at Mackenzie. And he couldn't look away from the screen. I knew it was going to be a boy. I could just feel it. And I know that Mackenzie was happy it was a boy too. But I don't think he knew what he was looking at...

"I don't see it" Mackenzie whined as he looked at the prints. I rolled my eyes at him. I told you so rang in my head. We were on our way back home and he had been staring at the photos the whole ride home.

"Look" I said and snatched the photos away from him. "This I the head" I circled the head with my finger and he just looked at the picture blankly.

"Oh I see it" he cried

"No you don't" I corrected him and he stuck his tongue out at me. He sighed and started looking again.

"Hey Delilah" Lauren looked over he shoulder "you should keep a journal of your pregnancy"

"Oh yeah!" Lindsay cried "that would be so cool" I arched an eyebrow at them

"Don't you look at me like that" Lauren instructed "you are going to do this. Or else" I cringed. I would have to do it now. Oh well. How bad can it be?
