CHAPTER NINE
„Your love is my turning page - Where only the sweetest words remain..."
- Sleeping At Last | from „Twilight Saga"•••
"Are you sure this is what you want?" She looked at him with a serious look and pointed to her round belly center.
„Are you kidding me? Of course I do!" He sat up straight, put one arm on her ever growing belly and kissed her cheek.
„I can do this on my own... then you don't have to give up your dream of being a professional baseball player...", he could hardly understand her, it was a rather quiet mumbling to herself. But it was loud enough to disagree with her.
"Oh, hell no. It's always two people who are responsible - and I... got you pregnant. I choose you and the baby."
„I'm not sure..."
„Not sure about what?" His forehead wrinkled up.
„The pregnancy. What will everyone think? Your friends, my friends... In a few months I won't be able to hide my belly."
„We can do this and if it's the last thing I do. I will be there for you and I will fight. Always. Until I am old and frail..." he smiled at her with the most beautiful smile he possessed.

Sweat dripped down her forehead. Her heartbeat was fast. Eyes so red, you'd think she hadn't slept in days.
The sun shone through her curtains and left a golden shimmer on her skin.
She was confused.
These memories kept her awake.She hadn't dreamt about him for a long time.
The only person who took her sleep lately was Montgomery but not for memories but for actions.
"Are you awake, sweetie?" Her mother slowly and carefully opened the door and peeped into the dark room, which was only lit by a few rays of sunlight.
Startled, Lara sat up and looked at her mother with wide open eyes. „Ohh.. you.."
„Who else?" she giggled and held in her right hand a plate of fruit and pancakes. „ I thought I'd make you something sweet for breakfast, you've been sleeping so badly lately."
She switched on the light and put the plate on her nightstand.
Lara immediately grabbed the plate and started to gulp in the breakfast.
„Why are you all dressed up?" With her mouth full and the fork in her right hand, she pointed to her mother.
