Chapter 10

Bambi POV

I looked at him and nodded. Now I understood. I played with my stomach and chewed the corner of my lip. I felt the bed sink down beside me and Alex was sitting there staring at my stomach. I cautiously grabbed his hand and he quickly looked up at me and then back down to my stomach. I placed his hand on my stomach and he felt around it for a while.

"I'll go and get you something to eat," He said. I nodded and followed him downstairs to his large, gold accented kitchen. Everything looked brand new and beautiful, something I didn't see everyday. Actually something I didn't see at all except at Darrian's house. I shook my head ridding the thoughts and stood silently by the refrigerator.

"You can sit down," He offered gesturing towards the island stool. I silently nodded and walked to the chair taking a well needed, and desired seat. I relaxed a little into my seat and watched him take out pasta noodles. I put my head down and closed my eyes. I could get used to staying here.

I stirred around and sat up. I was now in his bed, so I knew he had to have carried me in here. I yawned lowly and placed my hands on my stomach. I smiled as I rubbed from the left to the right. Darrian is both the worst and best thing that ever happened to me. He played me but in the end gave me something that I was proud to say I had but not proud enough to say who it came from.

"Hey little bit, it's your mommy. I just want you to know that I love you and I'm going to do everything I can to make you happy," I spoke softly as I rubbed my stomach. My stomach wasn't formed yet but when I touched my stomach I felt happier than usual. I looked up and Alex stood in the doorway staring at my stomach again.

"Are you okay?" I asked him scooting to the left to get out of the bed. He nodded and walked over to my side helping me stand up. When he let me down we walked to the kitchen in silence. I sat back down at the islands bar stool as Alex went into the kitchen bringing out two plates of pasta. I followed him into the dining room and sat down across from him.

"Thanks for letting me stay here, and for the food." I said quietly. He nodded and smiled very faintly at me. I tried some of the pasta and almost squealed in satisfactory. It was probably the best pasta I'd ever had. After we finished eating I washed the dishes and went back into the room.

Alex had his head down as he rubbed his hair. I rubbed his shoulder and he looked up quickly, his face meeting my stomach. He let out a sigh and placed his head back into his hands. I sighed and grabbed my luggage case getting out an old black shirt and black underwear. I walked over to Alex and tapped his shoulder, making him look up at me. I pointed to the bathroom, and he nodded indicating that I could use his shower.

He got up from the bed and walked into the bathroom, showing me where everything was. He gave me a yellow towel and a matching rag. I thanked him as he walked out of the bathroom and hurried into his warm shower. I didn't spend a lot of time in there. I quickly got out and put on my clothes. I walked out of the bathroom and got in the bed. I heard the shower running so I knew Alex was in there, so I layed my head on the pillow and drifted to sleep.

Major POV

Every time I look at Bambi I can't help but to look at her stomach. She probably thinks that I'm crazy or just out of it but really I'm in pain. It kills me to know that she's pregnant. I got out of the shower and put on my sweatpants and a regular shirt. I got in bed and noticed that she was asleep. I pulled the cover over her and kissed her forehead. I placed my hand on her stomach and felt saddened by it so I quickly took it off. When I looked up she was staring at me.

"I'm sorry." I told her. She just stared at me.

"Are you okay?" She asked truly concerned. I was about to nod but I decided to be honest and shook my head.

"No." I said. She patted my shoulder in s circular motion and leaned in closer to me.

"Well tell me what's wrong." She said. I swallowed hard and nodded.

"My last girlfriend had gotten pregnant but she couldn't take the stress so she aborted it." I said letting a couple of my tears fall. She rubbed my back and layed my head on her stomach.

"I'm sorry, but everything's going to be okay, you can always try again with somebody else." She said. I nodded and looked up at her.

"Can I be the father of your baby," I asked her. She opened her mouth to speak but didn't. After a while I wished I hadn't said anything at all.

"Yes", She said nodding. I looked at her and finally found my voice to speak.

"Yes", I repeated again, and she nodded.

"Yes you can father my baby." She said.
