Everything is Going Wrong

Chapter 6

*6 months pregnant*

I woke up to a thump on the lower left part of my abdomen.

"Ouchie baby!" I whispered as I rubbed the spot.

They've been kicking around a lot lately.

I have been sleeping a lot better because my morning sickness has almost completely died down.

Thank god.

I still haven't talked to Jaiden since the whole mishap.

He's been texting me, but I don't answer.

"Why hello babies!" Melanie smiled as she walked into my room and started rubbing my stomach.

"Ugh. So I was thinking, we call James over and discuss baby names, and then maybe go to the mall?" I whimpered and stretched.

"Deal." she smiled and walked out to call James.

-----------------------------------------------

"Brianna?" James chimed in.

"No."

"Emma?" Mel asked.

"Too simple."

"Ashley?" James yelled as he slumped over on the couch.

"Nope."

"Genevieve?" Melanie asked, hesitant to speak.

"Um... Put that down as maybe." I said as James punched the air in front of him, glad we at least got a maybe.

-----------------------------------------------

After and hour and a half of baby names, we finally decided on Violet and Alyna.

I plopped onto the couch and turned on the tv.

I rested my phone on top of my stomach and every single time it vibrated, the girls kicked my abdomen.

And every single one of the of the text messages was from Jaiden.

Hey can we talk?

I want to talk with you.

We're having kids together.

I deserve to talk to you.

I replied back.

I don't want my daughters to know how horrible their dad was and how he didn't care.

I choked back tears as I threw my phone across the room.

I wobbled over to get it as another text came through.

At least call me when they're born and I'll come. Just once.

I rolled my eyes and replied.

Fine.

I walked back upstairs and laid down.

This was going to be a lot harder than I ever thought.
