That Nerd

Chapter 21

*EMILY'S POV*

"YOU'RE WHAT?!" they all scream at the same time.

I had just told them what I had been hiding for a week. Once he proposed, we discussed if we wanted to have kids. One thing led to another and...

"Yeah, I'm pregnant." I say again.

"OH MY GOD!" they all scream.

"Have you told Marcel?" Sam asks.

"Actually, no, I am going to do it today." I reply happily. I'm so excited.

"Well, what are you waiting for! We'll leave so you can tell him!" Tylee says. They all agree and get up. We all leave the room. They say a quick good bye to Marcel and rush out.

"What was that about?" he asks.

"Marcel, sit down, I have something to tell you."

"Ok, what is it?" he asks as he sits down. I take a breath and bring up my shirt. I'm really skinny so you can already see a tiny bump.

"Oh my god," he says and stands up. He wraps his hands around what of the bump he could. He has a small smile on his face and tears in his eyes. "I- I - I can't believe," he can't finish his sentence.

"I know. I figured out last week but didn't tell you until now invade something happened."

"I don't care. I'm so happy. I can't believe we're going to be parents." he says.

"I know. I can't either. I love you Marcel."

"I love you too. Now, do we want to get married before the baby is born?" he asks student serious.

"I would like to, of that's ok with you..."

"Of course. Now, let's get planning." he says smiling. I put my shirt back down and sit with him on the couch.

We start to plan the wedding and since it's the 2nd of this month, we are going to have the wedding at the end of the month. I know that's short notice but I want to get married before my bump gets to big. We already know that we're going to have it by the London Eye. We'd like to have it simple so that's what we're going to do. Nothing special, nothing to plain.

"It will be perfect." he says to me.

"I know. I'm so excited. I'm gunna call the girls over tomorrow to help me go dress shopping. Is that alright?"

"Yes, just be careful. I don't want either of you getting hurt." he smiles and looks at my stomach.

*THE NEXT DAY*

The girls come over at noon the next day. We go out to lunch at Nandos, then go to some bridal studios. I've never been to one before so I'm nervous.

"So, what exactly are you looking for?" a girl named Claudia asks me.

"Something simple. Not to frilly, not to straight. Something Cinderella-ish." I finish my complicated description.

"Ok, follow me."

After 2 hours of shopping, i finally found the dress.

It's sleeveless, flowy, and elegant.

"Let's go home. I'm tired." I say. We head home.

As soon as i get home, i cuddle with Marcel on the couch and fall asleep while watching Forest Gump.
