Have you ever wondered how it must feel to be pregnant? Not only pregnant but very pregnant at this point in time? I have one word to describe it all, discomfort. The constant discomfort I feel even when I think or convince myself I am comfortable when in fact it couldn't be further from the truth. But I guess that's the thing about having a human growing inside of you, yeah I try not to remind myself of that too much, freaks me out if I think about it too much.
"Come on y/n, you sure you can't go?" Michael, starts to whine as he comes down the stairs and into the living room where I was currently watching Keeping Up With The Kardashians.
Pausing the show I turned my head to face him, feeling exhausted as it is with being 6 months pregnant and working most of the time. "I can't now, you know how I feel about it all." I moaned to him and tuned back round to my comfortable spot and pressed play, making it a closed case.
"But we waited ages for those tickets! We've always wanted to go!" He spoke up causing me to sigh.
"That was before oh I don't know, you got me pregnant?" I said pointing to my stomach and he rolled his eyes and sat down next to me, pulling my legs up so I could rest them on his lap.
Before this all happened me and Michael got Twenty One Pilots concert tickets, and I've always wanted to see them even before I met Mikey and we always agreed to see them when we could find the time and afford it, but then a little bump in the road came along and now the bump is forming on my stomach.
"I get it, who else could go though?" He asked me and I shook my shoulders, knowing that Luke was in Italy with his girlfriend, Calum had gone home for a while and Ashton was with his three kids visiting home too.
"I don't know, I'm sure you'll find someone Mikey." I said bringing my legs off of his lap and moving up next to him, resting my head on his shoulder and he placed his arm around my shoulders and his other hand on my stomach. "I can't wait until we take this little one to a concert." He said making swirls and various patterns on my stretched top with his left hand which caught the light and reflected the gold ring on his finger matching mine.
"Well I'll have you know the first concert lil Squidgy is going to will be 5 Seconds Of Summer along with her fellow mini members." I giggled to myself imagining them all seeing their dads perform and cheering, waving to them as they focused to hard on getting it right so it would be perfect for them all.
"Thanks for that note of reassurance that the band will stay together that long." He joked and pulled a face then stood up, he scratched his head and began to walk out of the room grabbing a hold of his phone as he did so.
Whilst I continued to watch tv I could hear distinctly Michael on the phone laughing with someone, I shrugged it off assuming he found someone to go with. Once the show was over I grabbed the blanket that was thrown over the sofa and covered myself with it as best as I could since my bump took most of the cover away from my lower legs. I closed my eyes and peacefully fell myself going to sleep.
Once I woke up I rubbed my eyes and slowly moved to sit up, I looked around to see that I must've been asleep for a lot longer than I had intended a note was roughly written onto a scrap piece of paper. My vision took a moment to focus once again and when I picked the note up to see what it said I recognised Mikeys rushed writing from the days of him writing lyrics at 5am, or drawing with me or playing games with the guys at Christmas.
'Found a concert buddy after all, stay safe love you x'
I smiled down to the note and placed it back onto the table, my stomach seemed to be fairly calm at this moment so I went to get something to eat, having over anticipated how long I could nap for. Once I had some food in my stomach for Squidgy my phone had been making all sorts of relentless noises since I had woken back up. Being apart of the 5SOS world has its ups and downs, like any relationship. Except in this one you have to consider millions of others in everything you do, meaning my phone is never peaceful, it used to be fairly simple with a few tweets here and there but once we got engaged things started to get a lot more lively. From then it grew dramatically with fans wanting our wedding location, invites and all the details for the day. When we got pregnant many wished us well and for the baby to be in good health, others wanted it gone, that only they could have Michael and demanded an ultrasound as we could be 'faking'. Now I tend to ignore most of it, having mixed feelings towards a lot of the attention I receive online.
As I pick my phone up I see many Instagram posts that I've been tagged in, then tweets followed about the concert Michael went to. A feeling of worry washed over me in case he got hurt again or had to leave, many possibilities circled my mind and few had positive outcomes. I managed to unlock my phone after a few failed attempts due to my shaking, I clicked on one of the tweets and saw something I never expected.
Michael at the Twenty One Pilots concert, with my mum.
Many tweets and photos were of them dancing or singing along, taking selfies with fans and chatting to them about all sorts. Whilst I scrolled through the countless messages I couldn't help but let out a laugh at all of it. Of all the people he could've gone with he ended up taking my mum, who hadn't listened to the band since she made me turn the volume down in the car months ago. Now there she is, dancing and singing along to their songs like there's no tomorrow.
Hours had passed and I heard the front door open, I walked down the stairs to see Michael placing his keys by the front door and turn to face me as I stood at the top of the stairs immersed in the shadows. "Good time?" I asked as I took slow steps slowly revealing myself to the light and out of the shadows.
He hung his coat up and I could see the adrenaline fade from his green eyes as he swept his blonde hair out of his eye. "It was awesome really, I just wished you could've been there with me." He sent me a sad smile and I simply pulled a face that read 'these thing happen' and rubbed my stomach.
"Just one thing." I said as I reached the end of the stairs and walked towards him, placing my arms around his neck making our faces a lot closer together, just how I like it to be. "You took my mum?" I raised an eyebrow to him and he stayed silent whilst he thought over the best response.
I let out a laugh to ease the tension and he knew then that I was joking with him and hugged me tightly, letting out a sigh of relief behind my shoulder, sending chills of cold air to hit my neck.
"What can I say?" He started smiling brightly to me. "Your mum sure can party." I felt myself cringe and cover my face with my hands.
"Well now you know where I get it from eh?" I joked and began to walk back upstairs. "I'll see you in bed Mr Clifford, love you!" I called back downstairs as I started to climb back up, feeling like I was conquering Everest at this point.
"Love you too Mrs Clifford, and you Squidgy." I smiled down to my stomach and rubbed it once again, feeling so blessed to have a baby on the way and such a loving husband in my life.
