Rumour - Ninety two

Third-person

"Sean you really don't have to look after me, I'm a grown woman"

Carter was sat on the sofa as Sean was stood next to her bed. He rolled his eyes giving Carter a look.

"Yeah but you're not good are you, in the 6 months I've known you. You have never been ill. Unless you had a night out and drank a lot"

Carter laughed at Sean's statement. He was right she's never ill.

"That was once!"

Sean sat on her bed looking at Carter. He knew Carter meant a lot, Grayson.

"You know ever since Grayson met you, he's been really happy. I know you're the reason for that, so let's just say this is a way of thanking you"

Carter smiled. He's been really happy since he's been with Carter? This baby thing is going to ruin everything and Carter knows it.

"You really don't have to thank me, Sean. He's the one that makes me happy. I just don't want to break his heart"

Once again Sean rolled his eyes at Carter's stupid assumptions. The thought of this baby and telling Grayson really impacted Carter. In the books and films, this is so much easier to watch and read. Yet being in this situation really fucks you up. It's not as easy.

"I do, when he was with Sidney he was always on edge. He never spoke fondly of her. He really wasn't happy, the Grayson you see today wasn't like this until he went into that school and met her. I'm so happy and proud of both of them, you Johnson girls really do have an impact on my two Dolans"

Carter laughed, was Grayson really that different. Yh, of course, he was a bit of an arsehole but I thought he was different at home.

"Thank you sean for this, definitely makes me feel better. I love both your boys dearly"

"They love you too, I can see that"

Carter smiled hugging Sean. It's nice to have another father figure. Also to know that he accepts the relationship.

They pulled apart smiling at each other.

"Right seeing as you are happy, I need to get to my wife to see what she's up to"

Carter nodded seeing Sean out. As he left Carter put her hand on her stomach.

"You better be worth it and a girl"

Carter laughed at herself. She won't give this baby up. So it's good to try and think of a positive way of this situation. Like names? Genders? Bedrooms.

Who the baby would look like, the future for the baby. Also memories. Firstborn. Wow shit, I'm gonna be a mom.

Carter looked in the mirror then down to her stomach then back at the mirror.

"I'm going to be a mom"

The weight on Carter's shoulders lifted. She really needed to say that out loud. It's going to be a bumpy ride of course. Yet I'm sure everything will be fine.

If Grayson doesn't want a part in the baby's life. Carter will still be fine. She's got a well-paying job. Her family will be behind her- hopefully.

She would hate to have judgement from her parents and siblings. She would hate it if her older siblings were disappointed.

"I'll be fine, we'll be fine"
