Chapter 6
Sebastian groaned as he leaned back from the toilet. That was the fourth time this week. He was really sick and tired, of being sick and tired. He just wanted to go home. Hunter knocked on the door, and opened it a crack.
"How are you feeling?" he asked, sympathetically.
"I want to go home" Sebastian said.
"Then why don't you?" Hunter asked, slightly confused.
"Cuz I can't I have to stay here." Seb whined.
"You don't have to." Hunter said, "If your sick you can go home. I'll just let the adminstrators know."
Sebastian sniffled, "You'd do that for me?"
"Of course." Hunter said, kissing his forehead.
"Thank-you." Sebastian said, standing up, and hugging his boyfriend.
"No problem, babe." Hunter said. Sebastian packed a couple changes of clothes, then drove home.
When he got home, he was feeling worse than when he left Dalton. The bouncing of the car had upset his stomach even more than it already had been. The minute he got in the door, he ran for the bathroom.
"Sebastian is that you?" his mom called from the kitchen.
Sebastian threw up the last contents of his stomach and stimbled out of the bathroom.
"Yeah, mom it's me." he croaked.
"Honey, what are you doing home?" his mom asked, concerned.
"I've been sick lately." Sebastian said, "And my boyfriend told me Dalton allows sick students to go home."
"Your boyfriend?" his mom asked. "It sounds like we have a lot to talk about. Up to bed and I'll bring you some tea."
Sebastian nodded, and went up to his room. He climbed into his queen size bed, reveling in the size, since the beds at Dalton were singles. His mom came in a minute later. A mug of tea in her hands.
"Sit up baby boy." she said. Sebastian propped himself up against the headboard. "Tell me everything that's been happening." Sebastian told her everything, about Nick and Jeff, him and Hunter, the classes at Dalton.
"Have you and Hunter...?" his mom's voice trailed off. Sebastian blushed bright red, which was answer enough for his mother. She sighed. "I hoped this wouldn't happen."
"Hoped what wouldn't happen?" Sebastian asked. His mom didn't answer. "Mom, hoped what didn't happen?"
Mrs. Smythe sighed, "Your a carrier, Sebastian." Sebastian's eyes grew wide. He was a what?! Sure, he'd heard stories about carriers. Boys who could get pregnant. They were often captured by the government for experimenting.
"How could you not tell me?" Sebastian asked, crying.
"We thought it was better if you didn't know." his mom said also in tears. "We didn't want you to worry. We wanted you to live a normal life. We should have told you when we found out you were gay, but your father insisted nothing would happen." she shook her head. "I should have told you, Sebby, and I am so sorry."
"It's alright mom." Sebastian sniffled. "I forgive you."
She smiled through her tears, and hugged him. "We should take you to the doctor tomorrow."
Sebastian frowned. "Won't a real doctor, just hand me over to the governement?"
"I have a friend. He's the same friend that told us you were a carrier. He works under the radar, with carriers.", Mrs. Smythe said.
"Okay." Sebastian said.
"Get some rest sweetheart." Mrs. Smythe said. She kissed his forehead, and left the room. Sebastian took a couple drinks of his tea, and then set the rest on his bedside table. He snuggled into the blanket and fell asleep to dreams of babies, and happily ever afters.
The next morning came all to soon for Sebastian. His mother woke him up at the crack of dawn so they could get to her friend's house. Once they were in the car, Sebastian tried to fall back to sleep.
"Do you remember that song you used to sing to me?" he asked his mom.
"The one that always put you to sleep?" his mom asked.
"Yeah." Sebastian said, smiling sleepily. "Will you sing it?"
"Sure, baby boy." She said.
You tuck me in,
Turn out the light
kept me safe and sound at night
little boys depend on things like that
Brushed my teeth and combed my hair
had to drive me everywhere
you were always there when I looked back
You had to do it all alone
Make a living, make a home
Must have been as hard as it could be
And when I couldn't sleep at night
Scared things wouldn't turn out right
you would hold my hand and sing to me
Caterpillar in the tree, how you wonder who you'll be
can't go far but you can always dream
Wish you may and wish you might
Don't you worry, hold on tight.
I promise you there will come a day
Butterfly fly away
Turned around and you were there
The two of us made quite a pair
Mommy's little boy was here at last
Looked away and back again
Suddenly a year was ten
Don't know how it got so far so fast
And yes dear, you don't understand
It's not anything we planned
Kind of makes you think it's meant to be (it's a destiny)
I always knew the day would come
You'd stop crawling, start to run
Beautiful as beautiful can be
Caterpillar in the tree
How you wonder who you'll be
Can't go far but you can always dream
Wish you may and wish you might
Don't you worry, hold on tight
I promise you there will come a day
Butterfly fly away
Butterfly fly away (butterfly fly away)
Got your wings, now you can't stay
Take those dreams and make them all come true
Butterfly fly away (butterfly fly away)
You've been waiting for this day
All along you've known just what to do
Butterfly, butterfly, butterfly
Butterfly fly away
Butterfly fly away (I hope you find your way and all the things you wish for, love and care about)
Butterfly fly away (oh, won't you fly away)
Butterfly fly away (oh, won't you fly away)
Butterfly fly away
When Sebastian opened his eyes again, they were at the place.
"Here we are." his mom said softly.
"What exactly am I going to have to do?" Sebastian asked getting nervous.
"Don't worry honey. Jake is just going to give you a little ultrasound." Mrs. Smythe said squeezing his hand.
"Okay. Let's do this." Sebastian said, taking a breath. They walked inside. A little, old man walked into the hallway.
"Ah, Virginia!" he said, "And this must be Sebastian" Sebastian smiled, and shook the man's hand. "I'm Jake. I'll be your doctor if you are pregnant."
"Nice to meet you." Sebastian said softly. He wasn't normal a shy person, but he was nervous.
"Alright, follow me." Jake said, and they followed him to the back. He squirted some gel on Sebastian's stomach.
"It's so warm." Sebastian said.
Jake chuckled. "I know. Now, let's see if we are indeed a daddy." He moved the wand around a bit. "It would appear that you are indeed pregnant, Mr. Smythe. About two weeks along. So just barely able to tell. You'll probably feel naseous for the next few months, just eat some saltines. That should help. Also don't over stress, or do any strenous exercise. I'll need to see you in a month so I can check up on the baby."
Sebastian nodded, dumbly. Jake wiped off his stomach, and his mother thanked him. Then they left. Sebastian was in shock. He was a having a baby.
"You'll want to be careful who you tell." he heard his mother say. He shook his head, and turned to look at his mom. They were driving back. "Only tell people you can trust."
Sebastian nodded. When they got back home Sebastian, packed his stuff to go back to Dalton, and laid down. What was he going to do?
