Chapter 1: Unwritten-Clare's POV
"Clare! Come on we have to go!" Drew shouts to me from downstairs. I walk down the stairs and then we walk outside and get into his car. As he drives he holds my hand. When we get to the doctor's office we sign in our names and then wait in the waiting area. To be honest it's all a blur until a nurse walks out and calls my name. Drew takes my hand and we walk into the sonogram room. Why am I so nervous today? Today I find out what the sex of my baby is. Today I find out if I'm having any kind of multiples. Today I find out if, in simple terms, it's a boy or a girl. My mind is a thousand miles away and I barely listen as the doctor explains how exactly she can find out the sex of the baby. All I want to do is shout out 'Just tell me already!' but in the corner of my eye I see Drew nodding his head as he listens to the doctor. I smile at this scene because for the past two months Drew has been by my side.
He chose me over his own family, and I can't help but think that he's going to regret this choice one day. That he'll regret being a father and want to be a teenager again. I mean, he is a senior this year.
Which brings me to my next point; school. It started four days ago. Alli decided she would come back to help me, and we got all the same classes. Eli and I have restarted our friendship, but Adam…oh Adam! He's ignored Drew and I since we left his house two months ago.
"Lift up your shirt please." Mrs. Truman says with a small smile. I pull up my shirt and close my eyes. A hand wraps around my own and I turn to see Drew smiling in reassurance to me.
The gel is cold and she has to put some pressure on my abdomen so she can get a clear picture so not only is it cold, but slightly uncomfortable too.
"There." she points to a tiny blimp on the screen.
"That's my baby?" I ask staring at the screen.
She smiles. "Yes. I know, it's hard to tell. That's what I first thought too. But, you're only at twelve weeks, the further along you go the clearer the image will be. See, there's the baby's head…and the toes…the fingers."
I turn to Drew and he seems to be in total awe.
"Do you want to know the sex of the baby?" she asks.
I turn to Drew and we have a silent conversation…
Me: Do you?
Drew: I don't know. Do you?
Me: I want too, but if you don't then that's fine.
Drew: Are you sure? 'Cause I can leave the room.
Me: Really?
Drew: You really want to know don't you?
Me: Yeah!
Drew: I'll be right outside in the car. Come out when you're ready.
He kisses my forehead and I turn to the doctor. "Can I know the sex of the baby?"
She nods, "A girl."
"A little girl? I'm having a girl?"
She nods. "Congrats. I'll see you next month. But, first do you want any prints?"
I nod.
"How many?"
"Good question." I mull it over; me and Drew…Darcy…my mom?...my dad?...Alli (she'd freak if I didn't get her one)…Drew's parents?...Adam?...Eli…that makes…."Eight."
"Bust little group." she smiles, but I hear the printer buzzing in the background. She hands me the sheets and I go outside to Drew.
"Can we go to the post office?"
He nods.
When we get there I send out the two pictures; one to my mom and one two my dad with a note saying…
I'm pregnant. It's a girl. I don't expect anything from you. I just thought you might want the first sonogram picture.
Love, Clare
Next stop: Alli's
"Clare!" she screams when I get there. "Did you get the picture for me?"
"Of course." I pull her copy out of my bag and hand it to her.
"Aw." she coos. "Boy or Girl?"
"Guess."
"Girl."
I nod.
"She'll be spoiled rotten."
"Not if I have anything to say about it." I smirk and say goodbye promising to call her later
Next: Eli's
"Clarabelle." Bullfrog opens the door.
"Is Eli home?"
"He's upstairs with Lucy."
I smile and go to Eli's room.
"Come in." Eli calls.
"Hey." I smile when I come in.
"'Sup?" he asks.
"I thought you might want this," I hand him the sonogram picture.
"What's this?" Lucy snatches the photo from Eli.
"My baby."
"You're pregnant?"
I nod.
"Congrats?"
"Thanks." I go to leave.
"Thanks for the picture Clare." Eli calls after me.
