GIA POV

Waking up to the sun blaring through my window. All I wanted to do is sleep all damn day. But my parents wanted to have a lunch meeting about what only god knows .

Since my dad thinks I don't take time out on my appearance I should dress the way I want too. Trying on my white pants didn't work. Even though my stomach is still small my fat ass couldn't fit into my pants. So plan B... I put on a cute maxi dress.

When I got to the restaurant my brother was there smiling up a storm. "Hey big head" he pushed me.

"About time you show up Gia! You're always late" my father said. Mentally rolling my eyes at his comment. 

"Leave her alone honey. Remember she's pregnant" my mom smiled.

"Oh yes, who's the father? Is he still around?" My dad sneered.

"I plead the 5th" taking my seat next to my brother. "Why is there another empty seat next to me?".

"Your father has a business meeting as well the guy is suppose to meet him here in like five minutes". He would have work interfere with spending time with us. No surprise.

"So you're pregnant? Which guy felt bad for you?" My brother joked.

"Why don't you ask one of your friends?. I see the way Brian eyes me when he sees me" I smiled.

"Don't even joke like that!" He seemed upset oh well.

My dad stood up and smiled "Hello are you the young man who's suppose to meet me?".

"Yes sir, my name is Delano" I almost choked on my water causing me to cough. My brother patted me on the back.

"Oh my gosh I'm sorry. Is she okay?" Delano asked.

"She'll be fine" my father fanned me away as he shook Delano's hand.

Not moving my eyes from my plate. This can't be happening. It can't be. Delano took the empty seat next to me and nudged me. "Hey.. I didn't know that was your dad".

"Well now you know keep this meeting quick!". He smiled and put his hand on my knee. I pinched his hand causing him to flinch "don't touch me".

"I see you know Gia" my mom asked.

"Yes she works for me at the beach" Delano glanced at me and smiled.

"Hopefully she's not driving you crazy" my father joked.

"Not all the time only sometimes" Delano joked back.

"Well since Gia is pregnant she will only be working for you for a couple of months" my mom said.

"Oh really... well congratulations the father of this child must be very lucky" Delano said.

"Lucky? You mean he needs to run" my brother said.

"No I mean lucky. Gia here is an amazing woman even though she shows this tough girl attitude but under that is a kind hearted young woman".

My father nearly fell off his seat "is this the same Gia we are speaking about?".

Delano nodded.

"Anyway change of subject... What is everyone getting to eat cause I'm starving!".

"I don't know... let me look at the menu" my father said.

"What are you getting?" Delano asked me.

"The whole menu if I could. But if not I'm getting the pasta. And I'm getting the full portion".

"Good keep that baby fed" he whispered.

"Gigi honey when are we going to meet the father of this baby?" My Mom asked.

Shrugging my shoulders "I don't know".

"Are you guys going to move in together? That would be a good idea so you both can raise this baby". My mom needs to drink her water and shut up.

"You know what your mother is right. Living with the father would be the best idea" Delano's face lit up.

"Not happening. I'm content where I stand now" I try to change the subject and it keeps coming back to me.

"Wouldn't it be right for both you and the father to raise this baby together?" Delano asked.

"I have to use the bathroom, excuse me" I got up and walked quickly as possible to the bathroom. I'll give it some time before I go back. Hopefully everyone will be on a different topic than me.

About five minutes later I walked out the bathroom to bump into Delano. He backed me into the wall "trying to run away from the question?".

"So what if I was?" I crossed my arms over my chest.

"You're Mom had a wonderful idea. Move in with me so we can raise this baby together" he got closer. I put my hand on his chest to stop him. "Don't even try it".

"I'm staying in my apartment and you will stay in yours. If we live together someone might die. It's like having a cat and a dog. It won't end well".

"You look very pretty today" He eyed me up and down.

"Thank you. Since nothing else fits me anymore" he put his hand over my stomach. "You didn't ask".

"I shouldn't have too. You got a little pudge there" he smiled.

"It's called I'm pregnant smart ass" he smiled and stared at me. "What?".

He leaned in again and brushed his lips over mine. "Oh my god what are you doing?!" My brother yelled. I pushed him off of me and slapped him.

"What the fuck was that for?!" Delano yelled. I stormed off back to my seat with nothing said. I had to do something.
