No Normal But A New Beginning

I woke up to my phone blaring. It was Effy, I haven't spoken to hear since I left.
"Cam? Listen, it's not good. They have you and cooks picture blasted all over the news here!".
"What do you mean my picture?".
"You dumbass listen! I could tell it was you it's only a matter before someone else does to".
"Effy, no offense but your kinda worrying for nothing. So they figured out cook fled what's your point?".
"Cameron, if he gots caught doing anything wrong in america or someone finds out who he is there he gets extradited back! Do you not remember how this works!".
"Look, Effy I love you. Stop worrying. When enough time passes you can come out here and see for yourself everything is fine. Maybe your niece will be here to".
"Your having a girl?".
"I am and I really wish you'd lighten up and start to plan a time to come out here to meet her. One more thing effs. How's Karen?".
"She's gone, Freddie's dad couldn't take all the sad looks they kept getting. Him and Karen moved to whales a couple days ago".
"And the therapist?".
"Taken care of. Thank cook for me will you?".
"Of course. I love you Effy. Don't worry about me. But start calling me more okay?".
"Deals a Deal you crazy slut!".
"Love you too effs". I sat up and looked for cook but I didn't see him. I smelled food and I immediately had to follow.
"James, are you cooking for me?".
"Hey! Get on the couch now atleast! I'll bring you to food". I smiled and laid on the couch so he wouldn't get to nervous
"Cook, bed rest means I just can't be stressed out and doing to much. It doesn't mean I need to be in bed till she's born". He brought over some tea and my plate of food.
"Just let me worry about you okay?". I smiled and when he sat next to me I kissed his head.
"Effy called, apparently your disguise didn't work as well as I planned".
"And?".
"And she thinks they figure out who I am soon".
"Babes, were fine if anything, me and you have all of America to explore the world remember?". I smiled and stared to eat.
"I do. Cook we need to talk about this". I pulled out the picture of effy.
"You told me it was me and you. What's am I supposed to make of this?". He looked puzzled like he didnt even know it was there.
"Cameron, i swear to you i burned my last picture if her in jail. When you freaked out that night and didnt remember me was the last time I saw effy. It is me and you Cameron". I shed a couple tears and pondered our next problem. I cant deliver this baby in a hospital it's to risky I planned my next words carefully.
"Can we do a home birth?". He looked confused them smirked it off.
"Preganacy brain babes. Are you sure that's safe?". Safer then risking him getting caught during labor.
"Yes, I want a home birth cook please?".
"I'll see what I can do". He kissed my head and held me and my growing belly close.
"For now just relax if you really want a home birth we need to make sure you are strong enough".
"And if I'm not?" He griped my cheeks and planted the biggest kiss on my forehead.
"I know how you want us to get to New York I promise we will cam, for now we need to make sure you and the babes are safe got it?" I snuggled into cook.
"Aye captain". He smiled down at me and cleaned my plate off.
"Heres the real question does baby want a milk shake or a root beer float!".
"Cook! That's not healthy!". He laughs at me and pulls out the root beer and ice cream like he could anticipate my craving.
"Fine, get me a pickle to please?". He gets into the fridge to put stuff away and looks over and smirks at me.
"I've got a pickle you can enjoy baby dont worry". He winks as he hands me my rootbeer float and pickle.
"Ugh stop. You know we cant right now". He pecks my head and turns on Harry potter.
"You are fucking perfect!". I nuzzle into his lap and feel completely at peace. For now.
"Babes wake up" cook runs my cheek peacefully as I flutter my eyes awake.
"Yess?". He has a weird look I cant quit figure out.
"I have a run i need to make. It's a 20 minute job tops so I'll be gone maybe a hour hour an half. Can you handle that?". Everything in me wanted to scream no and just hold him but I could see the urgency.. I could see us struggling in the future when the baby comes. We need all the money he could make right now.
"Just as long as you come back to me. Pinky promise cookie". He reached down and latched his pinky in mine putting his forehead to mine.
"Babydoll I'll be back as soon as I'm done i promise. I'm not goin anywhere". He kissed his hand and I kissed mine before the promise was sealed. He kissed my and my tummy for good luck and was out the door. As soon as I was alone I thought about every single thing that could go wrong. But I kept calm and just kept the news on incase. I didnt even notice falling asleep. I woke up to my phone ringing and it was my mom.
"Hey mom, I'm fine just relaxing". She breathes heavy.
"Cam it's your father, he noticed a news piece that showed you and cook. Your wanted? Baby what did you get into?". My heart sank
"Mom I swear it was a misunderstanding. Whatever dads planning please. This will be the biggest favor I ask for but stop him. I dont think I could handle losing cook". I felt my pulse start to race I needed to calm down I started my deep breathing while my mom stayed quite not knowing what to do.
"Cameron vanders, I'll protect you to the end of the earth. I'll handle it, you just keep my grandbaby safe and make sure you are to". I could hear the worry in her voice.
"I love you mom".
"I love you cami". As I hung up the door unlatched. I rushed into cook's arms and started to cry uncontrollably.
"Babes what's wrong?!". I pushed my tears away and just smiled at him clutching him to me.
"Nothing I'm over emotional and I need to just have this baby already so I can worry about something else!". He smiled and kissed my cheek.
"Well consider this something to worry about. Cameron Marie Vandors will you marry me?".
