Amyplier

Chapter Eighty Five.

Amys Point of View:

     Its been a couple of weeks since I found out. The morning sickness has died down, Only getting sick on occasion but when I do its bad. Mark has been amazing, constantly being there when I hurt or need to cry it out. Everything has been amazing. Hearing my feet softly pat against the hardwood floor I walk into the kitchen, Seeing no one there yet. Doing my normal routine I begin to make my coffee. The only thing that has been somewhat of a challenge so far is that pregnant women are not supposed to drink more than a cup and a half a day which if you know me, For sure an issue. Hearing some footsteps that are not mine, I turn and look towards the doorway "Good Morning" I smile, Pushing a piece of hair back behind my ear. I turn back to face the coffee maker before feeling a strong pair of hands wrap around my small frame "morning" He says, Placing a gentle kiss to my neck and walking away "Don't have too many of those" He pops an eyebrow as the edges of his mouth come up forming a small smile. I shake my head as I pour a cup and hear another set of footsteps loudly coming down the hallway "What can't Amy have?" Ethan says, Walking into the kitchen. I keep walking to the table, Keeping my back to Ethan "Coffee" I quickly speak as I sit. Marks fingers dance atop the wooden table, Another nervous habit "The doctor said it was messing with her too bad" He squeaked as he itched the back of his head. Ethan nods before pouring himself a cup and I sip at mine, Trying to keep my secret for as long as I can.

     "Ames" Marks voice echoes down the small hallway "Almost ready?" He yells again, Voice sounding more excited with the last sentence. I pull my shirt over my head and walk over to my hooks by the door "Almost!" I yell back. My attention falls to the full length mirror hung on the back of my bedroom door, Making me walk over to stand in front of it. Even though I've done this almost every day since I discovered I was pregnant, Maybe today will be the day. Adjusting my position to stand sideways I tug up my shirt and hold it against the wiring of my bra, Opening my eyes slowly. Today was different, But not by much. Today I didn't see a flat stomach but the tinniest little pudge of a baby bump. With my other hand I cover my huge smile that has placed itself across my face and continue to stare. My baby is in there. I continue to stare until Mark interrupts "Amy I'm leaving without you" He yells in a sing song voice. My mood is too happy to crash, I drop my shirt "Coming" I yell back walking out my door, A huge smile still spread proudly.

     "Hello" I smile at the nice lady standing behind the counter "May i please have a large Iced dark roast with cream?" I continue to smile, Drifting my attention to the lady then to the counter and back up to the lady. She nods before pointing to the card payment "Swipe here" Her voice is bland, No real emotion behind it. I do as told before signing my name and taking out my card again "That will be ready shortly ma'am" She gives a fake smile and walks back, Stamping my order on the spiny thing. I walk down to the end of the bar and set at a high top, Waiting patiently and hoping they don't mess up my last chance to drink coffee today.

Mark: Almost done?

Looking back to my phone I roll my eyes, Not really meaning any harm by it. My fingers press the keys, Explaining that I'm in the waiting process to get my delicious coffee drink.

Mark: I'm parked outside by the nice old woman walking her dog

That one made me laugh. He's never been the best at descriptive details. Ever. I decide that one doesn't need a reply. I lay my phone face down against the table before hearing my name being called at the counter. I happily hop off the over sized chair and pick up my phone "Thank you" I smile towards the under paid college student as I take my coffee from his hands and stir the contents of the cup around with the straw provide. Good ol' Jane's Coffee never fails.

     "You really made Mark drive you down to Jane's just for a coffee?" Ethan laughs, Shoving a spoonful of his dinner in his mouth. I sit across from him happily nodding my head, Slightly dancing in my seat as I do so. "She can't have as much of it" Mark sighs, sitting beside me "Why not" He half laughs as he runs his fingers through his hair. I look down at his meal and feel my stomach begin to move unhappily "I think I'm going to get ready for bed" I stand from the table "See you in the morning" I smile as I push my chair back under the small table, A hand placed to my stomach. As I begin to walk away I hear quiet conversation in the kitchen, Kathryn's voice "Is she ok?" I walk slower "She's been acting weird" I hear her sigh and guilt washes through me. The room falls quiet and I try to climb the stairs without hitting the weak squeaky spots "She's great actually" Mark replies "Just learning what food she can and can't handle" I can hear the smile in his voice. Satisfied, I walk the rest of the way up into the upper part of the house happy I have such an amazing boyfriend to keep me covered.

     I have to admit, I may have spent more time in the bathroom staring at my tiny baby bump than I should have. I can't help it. It's heeling this entire situation settle in and finally make me realize that this is actually happening. I'm sure theres no way of hiding my excitement as I walk out of the bathroom, I can feel my tense face as I walk back onto the hardwood. Not getting but three steps past the door I hear Kathryn's voice call after me "Hey Ames" I turn to my left and see her walking out of her bedroom. I smile and lean my self against the wall "Hey" I rub my arm "Whats up?" I ask, Not really curious but more wanting to get to the point of things. I watch as she looks me over "We haven't talked much" She sighs "Lets hang out tomorrow" She smiles and even though i still feel sick from Marks dinner choice I nod my head, Agreeing to the plan. "I'm down" I smile and watch as she stares me down again "I'm going to bed, See you in the morning" I smile and walk past her and into m room. Closing the door behind me, Letting out a breath of air I didnt know i was holding.

I don't know emotion, agh. Sometimes dudes into it and others he seems like he couldn't care less and I'm conflicted. Anyways, Not about me, about the book. Sorry this is going up so late at night but since school started back this is how it'll be most of the time. I wish I could pre write but I have no time. I'm sorry and i hope you're all sorta kinda cool with it. I hope you enjoyed this read. xxParks
