The Sitter (Completed)

Chapter Eleven

CHAPTER ELEVEN

(RECAP)

I quickly ran over and grabbed the milk, then placed two gallons in the fridge. I brought one to the couch with me, drinking half of it within a second. Mary, without warning, yanks the half gallon away from me and finishes it off. She smiles when she's done, handing me the empty container. I take it and watch as she hastily walks to the fridge grabbing another gallon. Before she realizes, that gallon is gone too.She is beginning to get mad. She abruptly grabs the last gallon, opens it, and begins emptying it.

I begin to panic, realizing that if I don't get more milk soon, Mary could become something neither of us want her to become. I quickly get dressed, knowing that only only have seconds before she is out of milk. I hastily run to the market, grab eight gallons of milk, purchase them, then haul ass back to Mary's apartment. Hoping the whole time, I make it back in time.

When I arrive, Mary is sitting on the floor in the kitchen. She's looking down at her stomach, but why? Is something else wrong with my Mary?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

DICK's POV

I rush to Mary's side, not knowing what's wrong. All she's doing is rubbing her stomach. Did the milk upset it? Did the drinks we had last night upset it? Gosh, I just want to know what's wrong with my Mary. She is not acting like herself at all, and kind of looks a little shocked. I take her hand and kiss it softly, then place my hand on her stomach.

"What the f***!" I scream.

"I don't know," she says shakily, "I think it's alive, what ever it is."

"No shit it's alive," I say jumping up, "what the hell is it though?"

"I think I might be.." Mary says.

"Do you think you're," I gulped, "pregnant?"

"I have to be," she says happily, "but why can I already feel the baby?"

"I'm not sure, but we'll make an appointment soon," I smile, "I love you Mary."

"I love you too, Dick!" she squeals, wrapping her arms around me.

"I'm going to be a daddy!" I yelled at the top of my lungs.

 "And I a mommy!" Mary said excitedly.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

MARY's POV

I still can't quiet grasp the fact that I'm pregnant, and so fast! Dick and I only slept together one time! Another thing I don't understand is how I can already feel the baby moving around. I mean being a half human, half mermaid, I've never really experienced anything like this. It must be something about Dick being a vampire, and when he bite me while making love, maybe we...

"Ouch," I scream, "what the, what is this thing doing inside of me!"

Dick ran over and studied my stomach. I lifted my shirt so I, myself could get a better look. It looked as if the baby was doing somersaults, jumping jacks and playing the drums all at one time. It hurt so bad and I knew something wasn't right, I knew I needed a doctor, and soon. I looked at Dick's eyes and could tell he was thinking the same thing. I grabbed his hand and placed it on my stomach. Instantly the baby stopped jumping around, and it felt as if he or she was rubbing against Dick's hand. Dick smiled and I could tell that he was very pleased that he could calm the baby with just his touch.

We walked over to the living room area, hand in hand, and sat down on my leather couch. It felt good to sit on the cool couch, and relax a little with the love of my life. He still had his hand on my stomach, and suprised me by getting up off the couch and sitting in front of me, on the floor. He lifted my shirt, placed his ear on my stomach, then started whispering to our little one.

He was so in to what he was doing, that I just sat and smiled, not because of what he was doing, but because I am scared shitless! I'm scared of what's to come.

Me... a mother!

Me... a soon-to-be wife!

Me... having a family!

So many thoughts consumed me. I closed my eyes and asked myself:

'Will I be a good mother? Will I be a good wife? Will I be good enough for my family?'

I took a deep breathe, opened my eyes, and looked down at Dick and my now non-moving belly. A giggle escaped my mouth, and I cursed myself for waking Dick. He looked up into my eyes and smiled the biggest smile ever. I think he knew what I was about to ask, so I went ahead and...

"Am I a vampire now," I asked suspiciously, "is the baby a vampire?"

"The baby is a vampire, pure vampire," he cocked a smile, "he or she will be the same as I am, but sweetie, I'm not sure if you're a vampire."

"How do we know if I am," I questioned, "I know I have some vampire qualities, but..."

"Let's go put you in the shower and see if you turn into a mermaid still," he said quickly, "I know by me biting you, I gave you some qualities, but I want to know if you're full vampire now."

We walked slowly to my room, opened the bathroom door and walked inside. I stripped and waited for him to run the water. I was really nervous. I loved being a mermaid, but I'd also love to be the same as my future husband and child, so I stepped into the shower. I held Dick's hand tightly, closed my eyes and waited.

Suddenly, I hear a gasp...

Ahahahaha I'm so evil! Another cliffhanger! So I know this chapter was probably boring, but it is what it is :P I hope you enjoyed it regardless. I'll be uploading chapter 12 sometime this afternoon :)

P.S. @jasP123, You better not be reading this if you're in school or doing homework! Remember, school is very important, and this will be here later :P HAHAHA I had to pick at you girlie!
