Two (2) Months Later

Nikolai and I lied comfortably on the family sofa entwined around each other, his long fingers beneath my shirt playing with gigantic stomach. We were watching the television. I smile as the actresses - wearing gay flamboyant gowns - dancing around the ballroom. The main characters danced until they were in the garden. I smile at how in love they were. The moment seemed magical. Sadly, the movie ended then.

"Pussycat?" Nikolai questions.

"Hmm." I turned my head and face him. His gorgeous predatory eyes looking deeply in mine.

"We need to go." He kissed my forehead.

"I'm tired." I mumbled.

"I'll carry you."

I smile. "I want chocolate covered pepperoni pizza." I mumbled.

"I'll get you a slice from the kitchen."

Rising from the couch, Nikolai moved at lightning speed and was back at my side with a plate with two slices of pizza. Handing me the plate of pizza, Nikolai knelt between my legs. Lifting my shirt - by right his shirt - he slides between my legs and rests his head on my belly.

"Button, its daddy. Kid, you have it easy in there. Your mother is driving me nots, she is cranky day in, day out. Still, I love this woman. She is one of the most cherish worthy miracles in my life. I love her more than I love myself. However, Button, you're not here yet but I think you're giving her a run for her money. I love you both." Nikolai smile as he spoke.

If he was human, he would be crying. Smiling, I helped him to his feet and kissed his cheek. Where his hand laid on my stomach Button kicked. Twice. Hard. Grabbing my stomach I wince. I sat frozen as the pain lances me throughout my abdomen. This would surely leave a mark.

Nikolai winces also and pulls me in his arms. At two months, I was the size of a five month pregnant woman with a baby who kick like a kangaroo playing soccer.

"She's just happy to hear you." I whisper.

"She's hurting you." He growls.

"Only when she's showing you that she's glad she has your love."

Resting his head at my stomach, he spoke. "If you don't start behaving Button, I'll stop speaking to you."

The baby kicks again. I laugh in between a wince.

"That's it I'm calling Carlisle."

Here we go again, I sigh. Since Nikolai found about my pregnancy, he ensured I got regular house visit from Carlisle. Not many knew of this pregnancy and we like to keep it this way. After all its a private matter. No one needed to be viewers of my life. This is not a reality show. But lately, I think Nikolai wants to share this 'glorious' news with others. Other than, my mom, brother and stepfather. He wanted my pack,  La Push pack and the Cullen family to know he had impregnated his shape shifter girlfriend.

As for me, I didn't want this private matter to be broadcasted. Next thing you know, wrong ears also known as the Volturi would be paying us a visit. I shudder at the thought of losing my family. Rising to a more comfortable position, I grab my phone and dial a trusted number. I paused as I listened in on Nikolai's telephone chat.
