Pixie Love(Pixie Series 1-Completed)

Pixie love XVIII

Tink

That seems to have shut him up. He just sits there on his chair and looks at me with tears in his eyes, not saying a word.

"James?" I reach out to touch his hand. "Say something!" I ask him, half afraid of his reaction.

"This is a bad joke, Tinkerbell!" He says.

"Do you think I would joke with this?" I ask him, losing my temper. How dare he say that?

"Because Pixies can't fuckin' have children! You told me so!" He stands up and points his finger at me in anger.

"I didn't know this could be possible! Anyway, it's your damn fault!" I tell him filled with anger. "You took me here! You made me not want to fly anymore! You made me human!" It's my turn to point fingers.

"What the fuck are you talking about?" He asks me exploding even more. I realize this is not going the way I wanted it to. Before I can say anything, he storms out of the kitchen, leaving me alone. I guess I deserved it. I left him twice up till now.

I peel off a banana and eat it with some crackers. I drink some water and go clean up the room. It is a total disaster there.

I gather all the dirty clothes that lie scattered across the floor and place them in water to soak them. As I start washing them, James returns and sees me crunched next to the through. My dress is half wet and sticks to my small tummy.

His eyes fixate on my small bump as he moves closer to me. He leans against the cabin wall and rubs his face.

"How?" He asks me.

"How what?" I ask him already knowing what he is asking but I need him to say it. I need him to acknowledge it.

"How did this happen?" He asks me and I decide to just end this tense situation and tell him the whole story.

"When I came to this land, I didn't know what would happen to my body. Apparently, spending too much time here, not shifting to my Pixie form for so long, it changes my body." I tell him.

"Changes it like you can become pregnant?" He asks me visibly nervous.

"Among other things." I tell him.

"What other things?" He asks me confused.

"I am becoming human, James!"

"What? How?" He asks with surprise written on his face. I finally stand up and go to him.

"It will take another year and a half for me to become completely human. Apparently, this is what happens to Pixies when they leave Neverland. We become human and eventually die." I tell him with a smile on my lips. I've had enough time to fall at peace with this thought. It doesn't scare me anymore. It isn't what I pictured my life to be, but it is fine.

"So..."

"I don't need to explain the whole birds and the bees story, right?" I sneak in a little joke, hoping it will lighten up the mood.

"I... am sorry! I am just shocked!" He tells me and lowers his head.

"James, I came back to give you the chance to raise this child, your child! I didn't want to take another baby away from you. But if you don't want it, if you don't want me, I will let you be! You can come and visit the baby and..." he stops me from talking by pulling me into a desperate kiss. It feels as numbing and as sweet as usual. It silences my mind and calms down my soul.

"I figured it is about time you stop talking nonesense!" He tells me, and I finally burst into tears. We wraps his hands around my waist and kisses the top of my head.

"Shhh, love! I'm sorry you had to go through all of these things by yourself!" He kisses my hair again and then looks at me. I give him a small smile while wiping my tears away.

"So, you'll become human...We will grow old together?" He asks me with a smile on his face.

"If you want to!" I tell him.

"Love, this is not Neverland! People grow old here whether they like it or not."

"We could always return to Neverland." I tell him.

"Will you turn back into a Pixie if we return?"

"No! After I give birth, I will become human even faster, probably. There is no turning back. If we go to Neverland, we will both just not age, but be human. I don't know for sure..." i tell him a bit uncertain of all these things.

"So, far along are you?" He asks me while placing his palm on my bump, causing immense happiness in my heart.

"I don't know! I don't know anything about babies... and pregnancies... and everything else!" I hide my face in my palms to hide my fear.

"Well, you have a small bump. It's safe to say maybe 4 months?" He tells me with a soft smile on his face.

"If you say so!"

"Why don't you change into something pretty, and we can go into town and celebrate that we are going to have a baby?" He says, still not mentioning anything about us. I need to know.

"We?" I ask him with a soft voice.

"Yes, we! We are having a baby! Me and the woman I love!"
