Restless Heart

Chapter 14

*Hunter P.O.V.*

"They will be here any minute now. Did you set everything up," I asked Jackie. "Yup I put everything in it's place. And with my parents it will take them a few times to understand what it means," she said. We sat at the table and Jackie went to the bathroom again and while she was gone there was a knock on the door. "Mom, Dad, Triple Ds. Glad you could make it," I said when I opened the door. "Where's Jackie," Denny asked. "She's in the bathroom right now," I told her. They all went to sit in the living room and soon Jackie came to join me. We waited for her parents and when they arrived we sat with everyone in the living room. "So what was the big news you have for us," Debbie asked. "We will tell you but first we are sending you on a little scavenger hunt," Jackie said. "Your clue is in the kitchen," I said. They then all went to the kitchen to search and the were looking through all the cabinets and drawers and turned to us. "Nothing is in here. Danny have you found anything," Debbie asked my quiet sibling. "No. I'm sure that bun doesn't ave any significance," he said. "Wait were was the bun," mom asked. "The oven. Why," he said. Jackie and I stood a ways behind them and we were trying to hold back our laughter. "A bun in the oven? What could that possibly mean," my dad asked. Then it hit Debbie and Denny like a lightning bolt. "No way," they said together. We nodded and they came running over and hugged us. It took Danny and our parents a little longer. "Think about it mom. What does A Bun in the Oven usually mean," I said. She thought for a moment and then began to scream. My dad got it and came over and hugged Jackie then me.

"Máma, Pápa. Bollo en el horno," Jackie said. Her mom's eyes widened and she started rambling in spanish to her dad. "They got it now," Jackie told me. They ran over and began to hug Jackie and jump up and down. When they finally calmed down and began to speak english again we got a bunch of congratulations and questions about how she had been feeling. "Well I've been having a lot of nausea spells," she told them. "I bet its a girl," Danny, Debbie, and my mom said. Jackie's mom laid her hands on Jackie's stomach and looked up. "A niña," she said. My dad, Jackie's dad, and Denny all said boy. "What are you hoping for," mom asked us. "We don't care as long as it's healthy," Jackie said. Later when they all went home we had a late night snack then went to bed for the night. As the pregnancy went on she began to get cravings. "I'm going to the grocery store to grab a few things. Are you wanting anything," I asked. "Some mangos would be wonderful. Make sure they are ripe before you take them," she said. "How do I know if they are ripe," I asked. "I'll just come with," she said. We went to the store and showed me how to know when they are ripe then grabbed 10 of them. Later when we got home and she was sitting on the couch watching TV and eating mango cubes she got a call. "Hello," she answered. "This is she," she said. She stood up and went to the kitchen to continue her call. When she came back I looked up at her. "Who was that," I asked. "Rachel Berry. She called to ask if I could help start up the Glee club at William McKinley high tomorrow," she said. "Well what did you tell her. "I told her I could help, but I have to be at work that day," she said.

*Jackie P.O.V.*

The following day I drove my yellow bug to William McKinley High and went to the backstage Auditorium door like Rachel asked me to. Everyone was already there when I saw the stage front so I stepped out and put my hands on my hips. "I hope you guys didn't start without me," I said. They turned and the girls got excited. "Jackie you look great. And you're glowing," Mercedes said. "Thank you. I missed you guys," I said hugging everyone. "How far along are you," Quinn asked. "I just started my second trimester," I said. "Wow. Who's the dad," Tina asked. "That would be my husband Hunter," I said. "So you two got married huh. How long have you been married," Kurt asked. "Next month will be our one year anniversary," I said, "but enough about me let get down to business I have four hours until I have to be at work.

We made the game plan and I had to leave to be at work and when lunch came around Hunter sat next to me like usual. I was laughing at a story someone told when I felt the baby kick. I put my hand on the spot and they kicked again. "Hunter give me your hand," I said. He put his sandwich down and laid his hand on mine. I put his hand on the spot on my stomach and he felt it too.

Months later

We were at home relaxing in bed when I began to get sharp pains in my lower abdomen. I groaned and Hunter turned to me. "What's wrong babe," he asked worriedly. "I think it's time," I said and right after I stood up my water broke. "Yep It's definitely time," I exclaimed. He gathered our hospital bags and then helped me put on my coat and we were off to the hospital. After two hours of painful dilation it was finally time to start pushing. And after almost five hours the pain finally stopped and I heard a baby cry. "Congratulations Mr. And Mrs. Clarington it's a beautiful baby girl," the nurse said handing her to me. Hunter and I sat and admired her for a few minutes before the nurse took her back to wash her up."What are you going to name her," another nurse asked. "Adira Faith," I said after looking at Hunter and smiling.
