Aarmau: The Potato And The Stranger

Chapter 15 ~ What's His Name?

Aphmau's POV

I hug my knees as I look out of the window of my living room.

"Hey, Aph. Watcha doing?" Katelyn walks calmly down the stairs.

"Just watching the rain." I reply quietly, gazing to the rain drops pour onto the window.

"You've been seeming," Katelyn walks up to her, "off. Lately..."

"How so?" I turn my head to my blue haired friend, my gaze shaded with a dark brown.

"You are never hyper anymore. You've been acting," Katelyn stops her sentence, "mature."

"Oh, well thanks." I rolls my eyes, looking back to the rain.

"See. You're snotty to me, and that's like, very, very, very rare." She walks and sits on the arm in the couch.

I sigh, looking down. I play with my tail until I finally look to her again.

"Look, I'm sorry..it's normal for a future mom to have mood swings..." I slightly cry, apologizing to my friend.

"So it is true," she sighs a depressed sigh, "you really are pregnant?"

"Yep.." I sigh, curling my tail around me.

"Female? Male?" She places her feet on the cusion, laying her elbows on her knees and her chin in her hands.

"Male," I laugh quietly out my nose, "expecting sometime this month..."

"Shouldn't you be with Aaron?" She asks, slipping onto the couch.

"Yeah, but," I feel a small tear roll down my face, "something happened..."

"What did he do to you?!" Katelyn hisses, her eyes shrinking to a mad cat size.

"No, it was something I did," I cut her off before she claws the couch apart, "I, um, was having mood swings and I guess he didn't know what he expected from me being pregnant. So, I just yelled at him for no reason. I left is house to cool off, and haven't gone back since last week..."

"Oh, Aphmau..." She sighs, pulling me into a large bear hug.

We hug on the couch until my tears begin getting larger. She turns on TV and we watch Once for the rest of the day.

Aaron's POV

I pace around my house, staring down to the small box in my hand. Dante follows me, trying to calm me down.

"Aaron! You need to sit down, dude! Ou look like your gonna explode!" Dante pulls on my arm, pushing me to the couch.

"Dante, how am I supposed to do this!? She hasn't talked to me in eight days! What if she's moving on to someone new?!" I yell at him, throwing the box to the couch and turning to Dante.

"Just, breath," he barks, slapping me across the face, "if you keep it up at this rate, you'll never see her again!"

I rub my face, looking down. I breath heavily before my breathing becomes steady.

"Call her." He says, his tail wagging low to the floor.

"She said she didn't want to talk to me." I argue calmly.

"Just do it!" He growls and grabs my phone, shoving it into my chest.

I sigh, taking my phone and type in Aphmau's number. I put it to my ear, staring at Dante with a guilty frown. The phone rings, making me nervous and scared for the response. The phone clicks.

"Hello?!" A voice sounding like a worried and frantic Katelyn answers.

"Is Aphmau there?" I say calmly, shifting my eyes away from Dante.

"Get your butt to the hospital, NOW!!" She yells before hanging up.

"Stay here Dante," I run to the door with worry on my face, "I'll be back."

I shut the door, running to my car to get to the hospital.

atelyn's POV

I pace around the small waiting room, my hand holding my chin.

"I'm here!" I hear Aaron pant, him stopping in front of me.

"Thank Irene!" I sigh in relief, falling back on a chair.

"Where's Aphmau!?" He exclaims, looking around.

"Just, wait...you'll see in a bit." I look around away from Aaron, trying not to have contact.

He sighs and sits by a chair next to me, looking down. We wait for a few hours, silence ticking in my ear.

"Aaron Lycan and Katelyn Firefist?" I hear a male voice call our names, making me jump.

"Is she?" I get up, walking to the doctor.

"Everything's done. She's ready." He nods, walking out of the room.

I motion Aaron to follow and we follow the doctor. We walk into a hospital room, finding Aphmau with a blanket bundle in her arms. Aaron gasps and runs up to her, hugging her and the baby bundle tightly.

"I thought you were injured!" Aaron says with a voice crack.

"Heh, no," she smiles, "look at our baby boy...!"

She shifts the bundle upward to face Aaron, him sighing with happiness. The baby has pitch black hair, brown eyes, and Aphmau's skin color. I smile and lean on the wall, my smile facing the child.

"What are you gonna name him?" I ask, making Aphmau and Aaron look at me.

"Aaron...?" Aphmau looks at Aaron.

"Y-you're asking me?" Aaron shakes his head.

I walk up to the two and sit beside Aphmau, staring at the child.

"I was thinking," Aphmau looks to the baby, "Jacob."

"I like that." Aaron says, kneeled down and staring at Jacob.

"I like that too..." I smile.
