A country fairytale

Chapter Five

     I dropped my phone falling to the ground sopping into my hands, I knew this was going to happen. He isn't going to act like a father to our child he is to famous and on the road, my dreams of having a happy family with my first child I have had since I was little is shattered. I started to hold my stomach and kept whispering to my little baby inside "Don't worry you will always have me, I will never give up I am going to be the best damn mommy ever to you... I promise." I walked into my room and flopped into my bed while tears kept falling out of my eyes, I ended up crying myself to sleep.

     I started to get wake up to someone shaking me, I looked up and seen Harper standing next to my bed. I started to look at my clock and seen that it was 7, shit my doctor appointment is in an hour. Harper jumped into my bed and started to wipe the tears away from my eyes. "Rayne what happened?" I told her everything that happened last night on the phone with Luke, she gave me a big hug, "he will come around I promise give him some time to process this, I told you that this was going to happen that's why he needed to know now. If he's a good man he will come around and get into contact with you I promise." I agreed with what she said, I do see him coming around but only time would know when he would. I started to get dressed and I washed my face and applied some make up to hide the puffiness under my eyes. I started to get excited I was going to be able to see my baby today, it's crazy to think I am carrying a little human... A little Luke and I to be exact.

    As we got to the doctor office, I filled out the paper work, I felt embarrassed having to leave the information blank about the father, I mean I could just write the father is most famous country artist maybe you can find out some information from his articles that are wrote about him. I started to laugh to myself, Harper kept looking at me and I just told her it was a inside joke. "Rayne you can come back now" I nudged Harper to come with me I was to scared to go alone, the nurse handed me a cloth to slip into, I had to remove all of my clothes. When I was ready I sat on the cold table the doctor came in. "Hello Rayne I am Dr. Hansen" I shook her hand she sat down on the stool, she started to go over the information on my paper and seen I didn't write anything down about the father, you could tell she wanted to say something but kept it herself. She moved the stool down to my pelvic area and started to slip on gloves, I started to feel so embarrassed like I should've shaved down there or prep myself for this. She did some stuff to do test on and than stood up, "are you ready to see your baby?" I started to get excite she grabbed the ultrasound machine, she started to look around for the baby. She pointed to a little dot on the screen I squint my eyes to look closer. "I can't see anything." She started to laugh that's because you are only 7 weeks now. The farther along you get the bigger the baby would get" I got a little offended of course I know that I am going to nursing school, I looked over to Harper and she started to cry and hold my hand. When Harper cries I started to cry, I only wish Luke took the news better because who knows maybe he would be here and cherishing these moments but I am just going to be waiting and hoping that he comes around for our baby's sake.

     Weeks have gone, by and still no phone call from Luke, but the baby kept growing healthy. I started to get a little bump but I kept it hid by wearing oversize clothes, I didn't want people to now I was having a baby until I came up with a good story to why the father wasn't around and a good fake name to use. I was going to respect Luke, I don't want him to get shamed for not wanting to know his child. He probably doesn't think that it is his and he is going to go on living his life and so shall I. Harper kept getting more excited epically since I asked her to the God Mother to the baby. She kept going over baby names with me but nothing but sticking to my liking, I want the baby to have a unique name not nothing that is over used, I mean who knows this baby could get a star one day like it's father. If he or she ever reaches that point you want them to have a cool name to be famous with not something they should be ashamed of and want to change. Harper always agreed and kept looking further into hundreds of baby names that I could choose from.

     While I was laying on my side while Harper was talking about some guy she met, I kept feeling little flutters in my stomach, it had to be the baby moving around. I started to get excited, suddenly my phone started to go off. Harper looked at my phone and seeing just numbers. I knew those numbers, I starred at them over and over before I called Luke. I answered my phone and took a deep breath "hello.. Luke" I could hear breathing on the other line "I want to see you, I am coming out to Tuscaloosa, can you meet with me?" I kept fighting with myself I don't want, but I have to for the baby. "Yes I can when will you be here?" Waiting for the answer I got nervous my heart started to speed up, I haven't seen him in awhile "tomorrow, I will text you with the information to meet, is that okay?" I responded with yes and than hung up the phone. Harper heard everything and was excited that he called me back and she told me so. Now the clock ticks by slowly while I wait patiently for tomorrow to come so I can see Luke... I am not looking forward to this.
