Zion✨

"Oh my goodness, this room stinks." Mama said walking inside my bedroom. I just kept my eyes on my TV scrolling through Netflix. Mama picked my clothes up off the floor and sighed.

"You've only been out of the hospital for a week and this room smells like shit." She said. I shrugged. "Oh well." Mama sighed and stood infront of the TV. "Have you talked to Anastasia?" She asked me.

I shook my head. "No." "Why not? She's been calling asking if your okay, she even gave us a sonogram of the baby." She said smiling.

"That's great Ma." I said. She frowned. "Look..I know that your stressing and can barely take a shower by yourself but your still alive baby." She said. "Doesn't feel like it." I mumbled.

"Why is that?" She asked placing a hand on her hip. I took a deep breath. "I finally told her that I loved her." I said. Mama smiled. "But she doesn't love me and does not wanna be with me." I said.

Mama sighed. "I'm sorry." I was silent. "I was so sure that she felt the same way but I was wrong." I said. "Well maybe she was scared-" I shook my head cutting her off.

"No she made it clear that she didnt want to be with me." Mama nodded slowly. "You'll be fine, and I'm sure Anastasia means well. Just give her some time." I nodded my head and she walked out my room.

I laid my head on the headboard and closed my eyes. All I saw was visions of the accident and Anastasia's face.

I took a deep breath and reached for my phone. I went through my missed calls and tapped Ana's new phone number. I held it up to my ear letting it ring. A couple seconds later she finally answered.

"Hey." I smiled hearing her voice. "Hey..how are y'all?" I asked. "We're fine, You haven't been answering the phone I got worried. I was about to go over there."

I frowned. "Why didn't you?" I asked. She was silent. "...Because I didn't think you wanted to see me." She said. I licked my lips. "Your still carrying my kid, I'm not gonna let my personal feelings get in the way." I said. I could tell she was smiling on the other end.

"Well in that case I'll be on my way over now, I hope your Mama doesn't mind."  I shook my head.
"Nah she doesn't." "Cool, be there in ten." I hung up the phone and sat it on my lap.

Anastasia

"You sure you wanna go over there? He hasn't talked to you in two weeks." "One week." I corrected.

"No two, he stayed in the hospital for a week after the accident and been out the hospital for a week." Mama said. I sighed. "All the more reason for me to go over there." I grabbed my phone and smiled.

"I'll be back." "I guess, be back for dinner." I nodded my head and made my way out the door.

When I got to Zion's Mama house I gotta say I'm a bit nervous. I've barely been around them and their not too friendly either. After I knocked on the door a million times it finally answered.

"Oh Anastasia." Mrs. Davis said with a warm smile. I raised a brow. "Uh, hi." I said. She stepped aside and let me walk in. "How's my grandson?" She asked.

I touched my belly and smiled. "He's fine." "Y'all think of any names yet?" She asked. I shook my head. "No we never got a chance to, but I want something that means strong..a fighter."

She nodded. "Well whatever y'all decide." "Mrs. Davis-" "Victoria." I smiled. "Victoria..I honestly didn't think you'd even change your feelings towards me."

I said bluntly. She scoffed a little. "Lets just say my son doesn't do relationships, your the only girl he crazy about." I was silent. She sighed.

"Well he's upstairs in his old bed room, but I must warn you it spells like some died in there." I laughed thinking she was overreacting, but I was wrong.

I held my nose as I stepped inside Zion's room but I didnt see him anywhere. I heard the toilet flush letting me know he was in the bathroom.

I took a seat on the edge of the bed and waited until he came out. I saw one of his crunches step out first and there he was. He looked terrible. His hair was everywhere, eyes red, lips dry.

I felt bad, was I the one that caused him to stress like this? I did not expect him to say that. I regret not telling him how I felt but it just isnt safe. Zion looked at me and smiled.

"Hey Princess." He said making his way onto his bed. I quickly got up and helped him lay down. "You look...Pitiful." I said. Zion sighed. "Yea I know." He mumbled. I sat on the other side of the bed.

"You haven't been anywhere but here?" I asked. He nodded his head. "Yea all by myself." He said. I nodded looking around the room. It was pizza boxes, soda cans and chip bags everywhere. "Looks like you had a blast." I mumbled.

Zion smiled. I held my stomach when I felt the baby move. Zion frowned. "You okay?" I nodded and smiled. "Yea the baby is moving, you wanna feel him?" I asked.

He nodded and I stood up walking over to him and pulling out a chair beside him. I grabbed Zion's hand and held it against my huge stomach.

When he kicked again Zion smiled ear to ear. "Looks like he knows who his Daddy is." I said. Zion looked at me and smiled. "He's been doing this alot, but since I got here he's been going crazy." I laughed.

"You thought of a name yet?" He asked. I shook my head. "I thought we'd both agree on a name?" I asked. Zion nodded. "Okay, I call for Zion." He said. I smacked my lips.

"Ew no.. I don't want him to be named after you." "What's wrong with my name?" He asked taking his hand off my stomach. "Nothing, just don't like it." He slightly rolled his eyes.

"Whatever, what about you?" I bit down on my bottom lip. "Dont laugh." I said. Zion nodded. I knew he was gonna laugh anyway. "...Kelly." He frowned. "We're having a boy." He said.

"Yea I know but I looked up some names and its meaning.. It means Warrior." I said. "And its Unisex." Zion was silent probably thinking it over.

"We almost lost him numerous of times and he's still alive, he's a fighter." I shrugged. Zion sighed. "Fine, I'll think about It." "It isn't anything to think about, that's gonna be his name."

"You said we'd decide together." Zion said. I smiled. "That's before you said you didn't like the name I chose." He rolled his eyes again making me laugh.

I missed this. I missed him. I have to tell him. Soon.
