Me, Myself, & My Babies

24

School starts this coming Monday. On August 29th.

My belly was growing each day, which made fitting into my clothes harder. My t-shirts were stretching out and my mom got me lots of leggings with light cotton cloth t-shirts.

Darren was laying with me asking me how I was and talking about random stuff.

"Ironman or Batman?" He randomly asked.

I thought about the answer before answering.

"Aren't they in different universes?"

"Yeah, but if they ever fought, who do you think would win?"

"I don't know, Ironman makes his inventions and Batman has people make them for him, but then again he has a plan to take down Justice League if ever needed possible" I thought out loud.

"I would say Ironman just because he's just as smart" i smiled.

"How about if Wonder Woman and Black Widow fought?" He asked.

"Where are all these questions coming from?" I laughed.

"I just want to test your knowledge"

"Knowledge of what?" I laughed.

"I dont know, I was just curious actually"

It was silent for a few minutes.

"School starts on Monday" i sighed.

Thinking about the big school and the classes I have to take.

"It's not going to be that bad" he stated.

"Um, I'm huge, at the end of the school year I was pretty small, now I'm pregnant, with twins" i explained.

"Yeah, but a lot of girls are pregnant at our school" he argued.

"I just didnt expect one of them to be me" I whispered.

"It's okay" he whispered back planting a kiss on my cheek.

I rubbed my belly thinking about the names.

"Tomorrow's the last day of our freedom, what should we do?" He asked.

"Let's just go watch a movie" I smiled.

He nodded and then yawned.

It was dark outside, and that meant it must've been late.

"You staying?" I stroked my fingers through his hair.

"Yeah" he mumbled as his breathing patterns became steady and his fingers loosely gripped mine.

I looked at his calm face. His hair was always long and a dirty blonde that he would always run his fingers through. His lips were perfectly sculpted and a shade of light pink. His smile is so charming when looks at me. His kisses are always sweet. His eyes were green with specks of blue and popped out with his tan. He always holds my hand with care and randomly stares at me. He makes me feel happy. When i hear his name or voice, my heart flutters. He's gentle and his voice is soothing. He kisses my hand unexpectedly. If it wasn't for the night I was being melodramatic, he wouldn't be here sleeping next to me. I wouldn't have the babies I started loving since the first ultrasound.

I can't help that I've fallen for him.

He makes me feel warm and safe.

He's so perfect.

I think, I've fallen hard for him.

I love him.

"I love you, Darren" I whispered.

"I love you too" he mumbled.

My heart fluttered.

I woke up to an empty bed. I sat up trying to tame my hair that was in a lot of knots.

"Hate having long hair" i grumbled.

Thoughts of last night rushed in my mind.

Darren said he loved me, but the question is did he remember?

I laid back on my side frustrated.

I miss laying on my stomach. I just miss laying in any position without feeling uncomfortable.

I laid in bed for a little bit longer before there was a quiet knock.

I looked over and saw my mom peek her head in.

I smiled and sat up.

"Hi"

"Good afternoon"

"Afternoon?" I panicked.

"Yes, Darren left this morning" she told me.

"Did he say why?" I asked.

"No, he walked out" she handed me some prenatal vitamins.

"Weird" I furrowed my eyebrows.

"Here, rub this on your stomach," she handed me a jar of creme, "if you want" then she left.

I got up to get ready for the day. I ended up putting on a flowly white shirt and leggings.

I took then vitamins and rubbed the creme on the sides of my stomach and the front.

I quickly braided my hair and went downstairs.

Daniel and his girlfriend were sitting on the couch playing video games.

"Oh, hey you're here" i rolled my eyes at him.

"I thought you were leaving for college"

"I got my stuff over to the dorms but wanted to- hey! You peeked at my screen!" He interrupted as his girlfriend stabbed his character in the game chasing him to die.

"Not my fault you got distracted" she smirked at him.

I walked in the kitchen before they started making bets for kisses.
