Chapter 4

Malia's POV

I've been laying on the grass in the backyard staring up at the sky for hours. At the beginning my mind was running wild with thoughts. It's been a few weeks since the whole Peter incident. I wish I could say that is all that is going on. Derek is losing his powers, and according to him, Peter is gaining powers. Knowing this town, this can't be good. We are also trying to deal with a new beta that Scott bit yesterday. I wouldn't normally be so worried because I knew I could protect myself. Now that I have a baby to protect I am extremely nervous. Not only do I need to protect my baby, me being pregnant keeps me from helping protect my friends and myself. Everything flowing through my mind came to a halt when I felt the baby move. I hugged my stomach and let go of all the worried thoughts and just let myself relax. I noticed it was starting to get dark and as expected I heard the back door open and close. I heard footsteps come towards me and someone lay down next to me. I didn't bother looking, I already knew it was Stiles.

"What are you thinking about Mal" I heard him ask me as he turned his head to look at me.

"Nothing, everything, I don't know I guess there is just a lot going through my head." I replied finally turning to look at him. He gave me a look, waiting for me to continue. I let out a deep breath and finally let out what I've been to afraid to admit, let alone say out loud.

"I'm scared. I'm terrified that I am going to be a horrible mother and turn out just like both my dad's."

"You are nothing like either of them. The fact that your even worried about it shows that you will be a thousand times better of a parent than both of them put together. You've always said how amazing your mom was. You may have been adopted, but she was still your mom, and I know you will have all of her best qualities. Besides, I'll be there every step of the way and my dad will help as much as he can."

I let out a single tear of joy, and smiled for the first time today after hearing this. I couldn't believe how lucky I was to have him. I snuggled into his side as he wrapped his arm around my shoulders.

"Thank you, not just for that, but for everything. I don't know what I would do without you." I told him completely grateful.

"Hey guys, it's getting late." We heard Mr. Stilinski say from the backdoor.

"Oh hey dad, what time is it anyway?" Stiles asked sitting up.

"It's 10:00 and Malia has the doctor's appointment tomorrow morning so you better get to bed soon. Plus I was able to get work off. There was no way I was going to miss finding out the gender of my grandbaby." He said walking back inside leaving the door open. Stiles got up first and helped me stand up.

"How long were you out here before I got here anyway?" he asked as we walked inside.

"Longer than expected. So how was Liam?" I asked.

"Well we kind of kidnapped him to try to explain to him what was going on. It didn't really go as planned."

"Well I could have told you that." I said laughing at him.

"Haha very funny. If he doesn't die he will be one very temperamental werewolf, and that is saying something."

I was now laying in bed, head still full of thoughts, but this time they weren't scared thoughts, they were about the baby. All I could think about was what gender our baby would be. I drifted off to sleep with good thoughts, which hasn't happened for quite a while.

I woke up to annoying beeping and an extreme craving for something greasy. I decided to let Stiles sleep, not necessarily because I wanted to, but because I was too lazy and tired to drag him out of bed. Surprisingly that didn't last long, because by the second hit of the snooze button, he shot up out of bed. I looked at him questioningly have never seen him shoot out of bed that fast.

"Oh my god! We are finding out the gender of the baby today!" He yelled. I watched as he scrabbled out of bed getting his foot caught in the comforter and falling face first onto the ground. I raised my eyebrow at him and let out a giggle as he quickly stood up and ran to hug me. He gave me a quick kiss on the lips and ran out of his room screaming for his dad to get up. Who would have thought he would be this excited to find out if the baby is a boy or girl. Just a few months ago he was terrified at the thought of having a child right now.

On the way to the doctor's we stopped and got some breakfast from Mcdonalds to get the oh so desperately needed greasy food. We got called back after only five minutes of waiting. My stomach was going crazy with anticipation at this point. I am pretty sure all of ours were. After the usual urine sample and the nurse taking my vitals we were alone waiting on the doctor. After about 10 minutes the doctor knocked on the door and came in.

"Okay Ms. Malia, you know the routine, can you come sit up on this table and pull up your shirt." Dr Johnson directed me. Stiles and Mr. Stilinski stood by my side. He got everything set up and began using the probe to look for the baby. We once again heard the heartbeat. I looked over at Mr. Stilinksi to see that he had a look of pure joy on his face. This is the first time he had been to an appointment. The doctor began moving around stopping here and there to take measurements.

"Do you want to know the gender of the baby." Dr. Johnson said looking at us. I nodded still mesmerized at the picture of our baby. After a minute or two he finally said the gender.

"It's a girl, congratulations." He said. I immediately let out a huge smile. Stiles gave me the best hug he could muster considering I was still laying down on the table.

After the appointment Sherrif dropped us off at Scott's and went to work. We walked in without knocking and went straight to Scott's room. In that moment I had really wished we had knocked, or at least warned Scott that we were going to be there. We walled into Scott and Allison practically naked making out on the bed.

"O god, my eyes, Malia you might need to burn them for me." Stiles said as we quickly slammed the door. We heard Allison Scream and Scott cursing. We both looked at each other and chuckled both disgusted about what we just saw yet amused. The door suddenly swung open, and we looked inside praying there was more clothes on them then on the floor this time.

"Sorry guys, you could have called or at least knocked." Scott apologetically said.

"Dude, I never call, and you should have locked the door. I am now forever scarred." Stiles said.

"Anyway, the reason we came was to tell you that we are having a girl!" I said excitedly.

"Yay! I knew it, Lydia so owes me ten bucks know." Allison said hugging me.

"Does this mean you are going to start decorating the baby room, because I am definitely going shopping with you to get all the supplies." She giddily said completely forgetting about the incident that just happened.

"So what is going on with Liam, were you able to get through to him after I left" Stiles asked Scott.

"For the most part. He is extremely confused and angry right now, but I think it is safe to say that he will live. His bite healed and is under Derek watch right now." Scott filled us in.

We had stayed at Scott's all day and were waiting for his dad to get here so we could go home. We were all upstairs when we heard Melissa come home but she wasn't alone. All of us decided to go check it out. When we got to the door, to our astonishment, the Sherrif was kissing Melissa. We all knew they had a thing for each other so that wasn't the surprise, the surprise was that they hadn't said anything. They obviously still hadn't noticed us standing there because they continued on having a conversation like we weren't there.

"I should probably get going" Stiles' dad said as he called for me and Stiles.

"Dad, right here." Stiles said giving him a slight wave. I smiled at him sheepishly not knowing what to say.

"How long were you guys standing there." He said already knowing the answer by the looks on our faces.

"Long enough, some explanation would be nice" Scott said.

"Well um, we went on a date a few weeks ago, and we have decided to see where it goes." Melissa nervously said.

After millions of questions from all of us Melissa changed the subject to the baby. We talked for another thirty minutes or so before we finally decided to go home knowing it was getting pretty late.
