We Come Alive 3

Jealous

That Friday, Manny was pacing around her living room making her green sundress whip in the wind along with her movements. She was all alone since her dad was at the school to talk about the situation that was Ethan and if Mateo had noticed that he was hooked on these drugs.

Manny was nervously pacing around since she had invited her baby's father Bryce to her home. He had came down to spend the weekend with his cousin, so he was going to stop at her house so they could talk. The two had never been alone together for a long period of time other than when they conceived the baby that was growing in Manny's stomach.

Manny nearly jumped out of her skin when she heard the door bell ring. She quickly speed walked towards the door so she could answer it. She looked through the side window and saw Bryce standing there in a pair of jeans with a black belt, a red shirt, black shoes, and his favorite gold rimmed sunglasses. For a moment, Manny admired his slightly tanned skin and his black hair messy from not doing it this morning.

She rushed to open the door but just gave him a soft smile so she didn't seem to excited to see him. Bryce smiled to her before walking in.

"Hey. How are you?" He greeted, standing beside the door and watching her close it.

Manny let out a deep breath. "Fine. And yourself?"

Bryce nodded slowly. "Good. I'm good." He spoke softly. He followed Manny into the house and into the living room where she sat down on the couch. Bryce sat down next to her and chuckled nervously at the silence between them.

He reached over toward Manny and brought her closer to him. Manny placed her legs over his lap and let him put his hand over her stomach.

"How far?" He said just barely over a whisper.

Manny put her finger tips on the sides of her stomach. "Three months. Eleven weeks. Just went to the doctors the other day."

"Really?" Bryce smirked. "Boy or girl?"

"Don't know yet. It's to early." Manny answered. "But I was thinking we can have a gender reveal party. If you want. You don't have to if you don't want to."

Bryce smiled softly as he reached towards her face and pushed her hair behind her ear. "Eres una princesa. Usted consigue lo que mereces."
(You are a Princess. You get what you deserve.)

Manny smirked softly as she put her hands over his wrist and placed his hand back at its spot on her stomach. "Than we'll have a party. I should find out what it is soon. We can plan it after that."

Bryce smiled and nodded. "Alright. Just let me know."

Meanwhile, Clover was enjoying her off day of practice by spending it with Dante again. He had taken her to the mall and bought her some stuff and himself things. They were currently walking into a female clothing store that Clover wanted to stop inside of.

Dante just held her hand as he followed her inside. He noticed some other guys with their sisters or girlfriends looking at Clover in her black crop top that she was wearing no bra with and didn't leave much to the imagination from how small it was. She paired it with high waisted tight jeans and heeled sneakers. Dante just gave them glares and walked closer to her so they knew she was with him.

"You can wait outside if you want." Clover offered, pulling her phone out of Dante's jacket pocket since she didn't have big enough pockets to hold her stuff.

Dante wrapped his arm around her waist and kissed her temple. "Nah, its fine. I'll just follow you like a shadow."

Clover chuckled but nodded as she let go of his hand and went into a row of clothes. She scanned around in the rack of clothes and smiled widely when she saw a black crop top with a zipper in the front. She had found it her size and was about to get her boyfriend's opinion on it, but when she turned around he was being tapped by a girl. Dante was leaning against one of the walls with his hands in his red windbreaker pockets with their bags hanging from his left wrist, so when he turned the bags moved along with him.
