"That's when Mr. McCartney walked in. June watched as his soft black hair and scruffy beard made their way across the room. He carried himself in a sturdy manor, making sure his presence was known. He reached his de...

It had been about two weeks since Paul had come to stay with June at her apartment. Throughout that time, Paul had helped June pack some items, for when they move into Paul's cottage. June was just glad he was around for when the morning sickness kicked in. He was always there to hold her hair, or rub her back. It was especially nice to have someone who can make a snack run at anytime in the night.
They had been going to college normally, however, they would arrive separately so people wouldn't get suspicious. I mean, at this point I really wouldn't be surprised if a few people didn't know. Occasionally Penny would talk to June about it, but they were always very secretive about it.
It was later in the evening. Paul had just gotten home from work; June had been home for about two hours already. Now that they lived together, June never really stuck around after school. They didn't find the need to. It made their secret relationship easier to hide, the only thing they had to worry about now was June's growing size. She was only 10 weeks along, which meant the baby was only the size of a strawberry. Paul came home about a week ago with a stack of parenting books, and the two of them stayed up well into the night reading about their unborn baby, and what to expect. Anyhow, June could hide her pregnancy from the world, because the baby was still relatively small.
Tonight that pair had plans to have John over for dinner, as well as his wife Yoko. Paul wasn't very fond of Yoko, but he was much too polite to tell John that. June had already begun dinner, which was just crepes. Something simple, yet filling. She had the alcohol set out for the other three to drink, while she drank sparkling cider.
They hadn't decided if they were going to tell John and Yoko about the pregnancy. John's reaction to finding them in the first place was a disaster, and they would prefer not to repeat that. No doubt John will be curious as to why June wasn't sipping wine like the rest of them. So they had a plan, They'd bought sparkling cider and poured it into an empty wine bottle, only for June to drink. Paul set the dining table, and then helped June with anything else she needed.
A few moments later the doorbell rang. Paul went to answer it. John and Yoko walked in, with their own bottle of wine, greeting Paul. He hugged the both of them while June walked out of the kitchen holding a plate with crepes on it.
"Thank you for coming," Paul told John sincerely. He knew his friend was still iffy on the whole situation. John missed Linda already, she had helped him through his last divorce, and actually introduced him to Yoko.
"I'd do anything for you, mate." John spoke softly, taking off his jacket. Yoko handed her jacket to John as well, and he hung them up on the coat rack next to the door.
"So, this is you're place, aye June?" John asked when June came to greet them after she set the plate down onto the table.
"Yes, it is. It may be small, but it suits me," June commented, "Can I get you two some drinks?" Everyone made their way into the kitchen and grabbed the wine glasses, along with the wine, then took them to the table. They sat in their respective spots, making small talk about the weather and how their day went.
