CHAPTER 3: CRAVING'S
NICHOLAS P.O.V
Lucy's parents gave the reaction I was expecting, shocked my parents, however, were calm, and didn't really react. Mum walked over to me and took the flask from my hand and gently placed it in the sink.
Everyone was still staring at Lucy, "What?" she asked, looking between them, "I was hungry" she said, a cute pout on her lip. I sighed and walked over to her. She had a thin trail of blood on her chin and I licked it up, causing her to blush.
"Nicholas" mum said, I turned and looked at her, I wrapped my arms around Lucy, and In turn, she buried her face in my chest, "its normal for a human who is carrying a vampire child to crave and drink blood" she said, walking closer to us, "And like us" she said, pulling up the sleeve to Lucy's flannel shirt, gasps resounded throughout the room, "The mother's wounds heal" she said, Lucy stared at her arm, that only a few minutes ago, had bruises on them.
"How?" she asked, "How is it even possible?" mum smiled, "Lucy, like I said earlier, the fact that your pregnant with a vampire baby, your wounds will heal when you drink blood" she nodded, "As i said earlier, as long as your pregnant, you'll crave things a normal human won't. The blood helps heal you're your wounds like it does for us, because when the baby turns sixteen, it will genetically turn into a vampire."
I decided it was late enough so I picked her up and headed towards the stairs, I turned back and looked over my shoulder once I reached the bottom step. "Sun's about to come up, we should go to bed." I said, they nodded and headed upstairs, "He's right, let's go" I heard mum say before I closed the door to my bedroom, I laid Lucy down on the bed, before climbing in next to her. She moved closer to me I placed my hands on her stomach, and fell asleep.
-X-X-X-X-
When I awoke, it was dark. I rolled over in the bed, and in my drowsy state, didn't notice how close to the edge I was, and I fell off, with a loud thump. When I sat up I realized Lucy wasn't there, I stood up and walked to the bathroom, when I heard the sound of retching coming from it. I pushed on the door and found Lucy hunched over it, her head was resting on her arm on the toilet bowl, but when she threw up, her hands went to her stomach.
I walked over to her, I placed a hand on her back, after tying her hair back, it had grown a little in the last two month, it was normal, vamps have long hair, so since she was carrying a vampire child, her hair would grow too. "Thanks Nick" she said, without looking.
"How'd you know it was me?" I asked, she spat into the toilet bowl, "The baby, its moves when your near" she said, before vomiting again, she then stood up, "That's usually about it" she said, walking over to the sink, and she began rinsing her mouth out, "And now its kicking" she said.
"Does that mean someone else is near?" I asked, she nodded and walked over to the door, before opening it to reveal Solange, "Yeah it kicks when Solange is near." I chuckled, "Looks like it doesn't like you Sol" I received a glare from her before she 'Hmpf' and left.
I chuckled, "You hungry?" I asked, turning to face Lucy, she nodded, and took my hand, "Got any more blood?" she asked, I sighed and lead her to the kitchen, where I pulled out a flask and bottle of blood from the fridge.
LUCY'S P.O.V
He handed me the flask, and I opened it, I stared at the red liquid inside, before looking up at him, he smiled, his fangs fully extended, obviously because of the blood, "Luce, its ok, mum says she craved blood too, when she was pregnant with us" he said I nodded and started to drink it, the red hot liquid flowing and running down the back of my throat, like chocolate syrup.
You would think it tasted bad, but it didn't. It tasted delicious. I must of spoken out loud, because Nick replied by saying, "Its normal, remember your carrying a vampire's child. Mum said it'd taste a lot different to you now because you're carrying the child of a vampire, if you weren't pregnant you probably wouldn't even consider drinking it." He said, damn straight I thought, suddenly my craving changed, "Got any chocolate?" I asked, he chuckled, I loved the sound of it, so deep and sexy.
He opened the fridge to get some, while he wasn't looking, I finished off the blood, but the baby wasn't happy with that, I dropped the flask, luckily it was empty, and I ran upstairs, Nicholas was there already, pushing the door open to the hallway bathroom, I wouldn't make it to the one in the in his room.
I made it just in time and threw up in the toilet bowl, surprisingly, it was not red. Nicholas rubbed my back in slow calming circles. Once I'd finished vomiting, I stood and began to wash my mouth out, the baby suddenly began kicking, I placed my hand on it and sighed, "What do you want Solange?" I asked, she stepped into the bathroom, "How'd you know I was there?" she asked, I crossed my arms, "The baby" I said shifting my weight to my left leg, "It doesn't like you", I heard Nicholas snort behind me.
Her fist balled at her sides, "Why wouldn't it like me?" she asked, I glared at her, "Oh I don't know, maybe because when I came to check up on my cousin after she was changed you had my boyfriend kick me out of the house for talking bad about that bastard Constantine!" I shouted, a little louder than I should have. But I was mad. Then suddenly, one second I was eye level with her, the next I was staring up at her from the ground, I was leaning against the vanity.
Nick's eyes were wide, Solange what the hell?" he shouted, she had moved so fast, I hadn't even notice her move, I was about to say something else, when something trickled down my face, I placed my hand to it, my eyes widened, so did there's. On the tips of my fingers was blood, my blood.
Nick was beside me in an instant, he lifted me up in his arms. Solange moved to touch me, I glared at her, "Don't. Touch. Me." I hissed, she recoiled back, Nicholas ran down stairs, me safely in his arms, "Nicholas, what happened? We heard a thump and-Lucy!" Helena gasped, "I'm taking her to the hospital" Nick said, she nodded and nick had me outside in the front seat of his jeep in no time.
We pulled out of the driveway, I had a towel pressed against my head, "Here" nick said, handing me a bottle of blood, I took a sip, not trusting the baby to let me keep it down.
-X-X-X-X-X-
"Ok Lucy, your heads fine, its healed all on its own, it's a miracle" said, I looked at nick and smiled, he smirked, and didn't seem to notice. "We need to check up on the baby" he said, nick and I nodded, he placed a band around my stomach, he then pressed a button, and a little pattern of a thump was heard throughout the room, my eyes widened I looked over at nick who was smiling, "Yeah, it's the babies heart beat" he whispered. I smiled, and looked up at ; he had a puzzled look on his face as he looked at the charts.
"Doctor?" I asked, I was scared now, he turned to a nurse and asked for a sonogram machine, he then looked to us, his gaze connected with mine, "The baby's heart beat is irregular" he said, my eyes widened, I felt nick's grip on my hand tighten I looked at him, his face had darkened, and by the structure of his jaw, I could tell his fangs were out, He blames his sister I thought, I placed my other hand over his, he looked up at me, "it's going to be ok, they'll fix it" i whispered. He nodded and relaxed. But only a bit. My guess is, that if Solange was there, he would've torn her apart.
The nurse returned with the sonogram machine. The doctor took the belt off, and placed jelly onto my stomach, I sucked in a breath and squeezed nick's hand "It's a little cold" I said, smiled, "Yeah, sorry about that, it'll warm up in a minute" I nodded. He placed the wand on my stomach and moved It around a bit. He stopped and faced me, "It's ok, you don't have to worry, I know exactly what's wrong" he said, I looked at him, he smiled, "You're carrying twins" he said, I froze and my eyes widened. I looked over at Nick, he was shocked too, than his face softened into a smile, and he kissed me.
NICHOLAS P.O.V
I pulled away and stared at the screen, "Would you like us to print it off?" said, I nodded "Yes, could you print four copies, and make one a wallet sized one please?" I asked, he nodded and left the room after handing Lucy a cloth to wipe the jelly off her stomach.
The doctor returned fifteen minutes later and handed us the sonograms and we left the hospital. We pulled into Lucy's parents' house first. Lucy quickly ran inside, and gave her parents 'their copy of the sonogram, and then she came outside and got back into the front seat. We drove back to my house. Once we pulled into the driveway, Lucy pulled out my wallet and put the wallet sized picture in the screen part of his wallet. She handed it back to me once it was inside.
Once inside and the door closed, mum dad and my siblings came running into the room. "Lucy! You ok?" mum asked, she quickly ran over to Lucy, checking for any injuries, Lucy smiled and nodded her head. "Yeah, I'm fine Helena" she handed mum the sonogram picture, "This is your copy" she said, mum's eyes widened, "Mum?" Quinn asked, "What's wrong?" Mum had tears in her eyes, as she traced the picture; she suddenly turned to Lucy and pulled her into a hug, "I can't believe it!" mum shouted.
"Helena? What's wrong?" Dad asked placing his hand on mums shoulder, mum let go of Lucy, she turned around and looked at everyone, and she smiled, "Lucy's pregnant with twins!" mum shouted, everyone's eyes widened. "Damn bro" Quinn said smirking, "You got your girlfriend pregnant with twins on the first try? And it was her first turn?" he said. Hunter just walked up behind him, and wacked him over the back of the head.
"Ouch babe!" he said, rubbing the back of his head. Lucy high fived Hunter while they laughed. Solange moved closer to Lucy, a smile on her face, Lucy flinched before moving behind me. I looked over my shoulder at her, and then back at Solange, she was staring at the ground. "Come on Luce, let's go upstairs and talk to the baby" Hunter said taking Lucy's hand, "Come on Christabel" Lucy said, stopping on the last step, Christabel ran up with u them.
I looked at Solange, she was staring at the ground, she looked like she was about to cry, I walked over to her and hugged her. She buried her head closer into my chest and started crying. Lucy ran down the stairs and into the kitchen, she came back out a few minutes later with a block of chocolate in her hands.
LUCY'S P.O.V
I walked out of the kitchen with a block of chocolate, and stopped when I saw Salange's face buried in Nick's chest. A pang of guilt shot straight through me he let go of her, and she turned to me, tears staining her face, "Lucy" she said, I placed a hand on my stomach as I felt one of the twins kick me. Nick walked over to me and placed his hand on my stomach too, his eyes narrowed a bit. "That's enough" he said sternly, but gently, "She's your aunt, so be nice" he said, and the baby stopped kicking.
"Well, at least we know who that baby will listen to" Quin said, I glared at him, "Shut. Up" I said, he coward away. I walked over to Solange, and took her hand "Come on Sol, you can watch me and Hunter eat chocolate!" She laughed, and wiped away her tears. We headed towards the stairs, Christabel, and Isabeau came running down stairs. They ran into the kitchen and got some blood, "Yeah! Cool you guys can bring it into my room, while we'll watch a movie! But you'll have to share with me, but it'll definitely creep Hunter out!"
"Damn straight!" Hunter shouted from my bedroom. We all laughed and the girls quickly ran into the kitchen, and got a few bottles of blood, "Don't worry cousin, you can share with me" Christabel said, I laughed and we headed upstairs. We set up a movie and watched it; Nick came in a little later and cuddled up to me. After a while, we all fell asleep, sometime before sunrise.
-X-X-X-X-X-X-
When I woke up, Lucy was walking in the room, in a tank top and mini shorts; I could feel myself harden at the sight of her breasts which had grown bigger thanks to the milk in them from her pregnancy. She crawled onto the bed and over to me, "Where is everyone?" I asked, noticing that the room was empty. I gulped when I realized I could see down her top, and she wasn't wearing a bra. She crawled till her pelvis was in line with mine and she stopped, I knew then that she had felt my hard on. She rubbed her pelvis against mine, causing our parts to rub against each other, I hissed, and quickly grabbed her waist, "Don't" I growled.
"No fun" she said, that cute pout on her lips again, she laid down on me, her breasts pushed against me, her nipples hard. She's aroused I thought, smirking, she saw it, and she slammed her pelvis against mine, the friction causing me to hiss again, I arched my back against her, "S-so where a-are they?" I panted out, not because I was out of breath, because I don't need to breathe any more, but it was getting so much harder.
NORMAL P.O.V
"At the courts" she said, getting up and smiling down at him, he growled and pulled her back down on him grinding his hips against hers, and she moaned, and he smirked. In a matter of seconds, they were both naked, and nick was travelling down her body till he reached her breasts, Lucy shivered against him, his hard on was against her inner thighs.
She moaned and bucked her hips, trying to get him to enter her, but he just smirked and moved away, she glared up at him, I know she thought, she knew how to get him to enter her, "Nick if you don't hurry up, we'll have to stop, your mum said they'll be back in half an hour" she said, it worked, Nicholas thrusted into her, as gently as he could.
She cried out in pure pleasure, "Nicky" she whimpered, it had been a while since they last had sex, and it still felt like he was stretching her, even though the last time they had sex was the night she lost her virginity to him, and they had a few rounds that night.
Nicholas pulled out of her and thrusted back into her again, gently, not wanting to hurt the twins or her, "nick" she moaned, running her hands up and down his back, Nicholas gripped the sheets as he continued to gently thrust into her, "Luce" he breathed out, he sighed in pleasure, Lucy wrapped her legs around his waist, causing Nicholas to sink deeper into her, "Oh god Luce" he groaned, out as he tilted his head back, Lucy wrapped her arms around his neck, and buried her face in his neck.
Nicholas wrapped his arms around her waist, "Luce" he panted out, "Please let me know if I hurt you" he said, Lucy nodded against his neck, her eyes shut tightly, and her mouth opened slightly in pleasure. Her head thrown backwards as the full force of her orgasm hit her and clouded her mind, "Oh god!" she cried out, "Lucy!" Nicholas shouted quietly as his orgasm hit him fall on.
He rolled off of her before collapsing next to her; Lucy crawled over so she could lie on his chest. "Luce" he said, she lifted her head, so that her chin rested on his chest, "Yes?" she asked, "They're not coming back till tomorrow, are they?" she smiled, "Nope" he sighed, pulling her closer.
"I love you Nicholas" Lucy whispered out, he froze, she'd only said it once to him, and that was during the northern lights, they had watched three months ago, a few days after school started, he smiled, pulling her closer, "I love you too Luce" he said kissing the top of her head.
-X-X-X-X-X-X-
LUCY'S P.O.V
I was awakened an hour later by the sound of thunder rolling across the sky. Nicholas was lying behind me, his bare chest pressed up against my back, the sky was still dark and when I looked at the clock it read 11:30 pm. I looked down to nick's hands, they were caressing my stomach, I was facing the window, lightning flashed across the sky, I flinched back into Nick, and pushed myself further against his chest.
He stirred, "Lucy?" he said quietly, 'Nothing' I said, turning around and facing him, he pulled me closer to him, I snuggled closer to him and buried my face into his chest. "Lucy, don't lie to me" he said, I sighed, "The thunder and lightning" I said, his gaze flicked from me to the window and back to me again, "What about it?" he asked, I sighed again, "It scares me" I said, he chuckled, pulling closer to him, I felt his member against my lower stomach, "It won't hurt you" he said, "Easy for you to say, you stupid vampire" I mumbled, he pulled away from me and stared at me, 'What?" I asked before growling, "It's true, you bastards are never scared of anything!" I shouted, he got up out of bed and put on his pants and looked at me one last time before leaving the room, the look in his eyes showed hurt.
I sat there on the bed, in shock, I couldn't believe I just said that to him, tears fell down my face, I possibly just hurt the only person I could ever love. I got up out of bed putting on my panties and his shirt and ran downstairs. I checked the bathroom. Not there. I checked his bedroom. Not there. I checked the sun room. Not there. I checked the kitchen. Not there. The tears fell down my face faster, I couldn't find him, I stood at the bottom of the stairs. He's gone, I've lost him forever, and it's my fault I thought as I rubbed my stomach, and sniffled, "Luce?" A voice behind me said, I spun around to see a shirtless Nicholas.
"Nicholas!" I shouted, I ran to him and wrapped my arms around his torso and buried my face in his chest, and cried, "Nick" I whimpered, "Nick I'm so sorry" I said, "I didn't mean what I said" I buried my face further into his chest, I sniffled before continuing, "It's just my hormone's and the thunder and lightning, it was scaring me, I'm so sorry" I said, his arms snaked around my waist, "Oh Luce' he said, picking me up and carrying me over to the couch, before laying down on the lounge, he pulled the comforter over me and we laid down on the couch and watched T.V before falling asleep.
SOLANGE'S P.O.V
We walked into the house to see Nicholas and Lucy on the couch, Lucy was only wearing Nick's shirt and he was wearing his pants. Quinn came running downstairs' "Well its ok everyone, by the looks of Lucy's room, they did it in there" he said, smirking, mum and dad sighed, rolling their eyes, "Well" Hunter said, "I'm definitely not sitting on those sheets till they're changed" she finished, and we all burst out laughing and left Lucy and Nick to sleep.
