3 Months Later:
Sonny's POV-
It had been three whole months since I had lost one of the babies I had been carrying and I still felt struck with pain whenever I thought of my pregnancy, but Chad has helped the guilt subside. The moment Chad proposed, I gleefully accepted and since then we have worked as one. I was now 5 months pregnant, visibly showing and was getting ready for my next sonogram. The one where we would find out the gender of our baby. I was on my way to meet Chad, my fiancée. I loved that word. Fiancée. It sent a chill down my spine and made my stomach flutter with butterflies. When Chad first asked me to marry him, the speech he gave was so heart-warming and I just couldn't say no. I walked down the corridor of the SO RANDOM! set, every now and then I got a few judgemental looks, but nowhere near as many as when everyone first found out. My cast mates and Marshall had been so baffled, (well except Tawni because she already knew), but in the end they had come around and were so supportive and caring. I had never met a group of people who were more understanding and now they wanted to do everything for me. This was a nice change from the normal. Eventually though the inevitable had happened, the press had found out. This didn't bother me half as much as I thought it would, I had Chad by my side and I felt like I was bullet proof, and that nothing the press could say could hurt me because I was so happy. Due to the recent attention, me and Chad were being extra careful not to be spotted while travelling to our OBGYN out of town. Soon enough I glimpsed Chad face down one of the corridor, and he bounded towards me.
"How's m'lady and my little man?" Chad questioned with a grin plastered across his face.
"Chad, we don't even know if it's a boy yet!" I exclaimed, as I felt Chad's well moisturised hand rubbing my baby bump. Luckily for me, I hadn't become too big just yet.
"I know Sonny, but we will soon enough. Any way I have a feeling it will be a boy." Chad added.
"Do you now? Because I have a feeling it will be a girl!" I opposed.
"Ooh… Some friendly competition we have here!" Chad boasted sarcastically, "How about this, if it's a girl then you pick the name and if it's a boy then I get to pick it?" Chad finished.
"I'm fine with that!" I agreed, I liked a game, "But if it is a boy can I pick the middle name and you pick it for a girl? As if our child gets called Chad Jr, then he is going to need a strong middle name to compensate!" I teased.
"I'm cool with those terms Sonny," Chad mused, brushing off my comment with a slight raise of his eyebrow.
We walked hand in hand to the car we had parked in the back lot f the set, safely concealed from any paparazzi. When we arrived Chad took the driver's seat after open the passenger door for me. He had really become a true gentleman and responsible father to be. I couldn't have been prouder.
Thinking of how proud I was of Chad made me think of my Mother and Marvin, as we cruised down the freeway towards Lincoln General Hospital.
I hadn't spoken to my mom since the night that I lost my baby. I had collected my things from our old apartment when she was at work, and since then I had been living with Chad in his penthouse, which was more that fit and spacious to raise a child in. I had heard once from Marshall that she wanted him to tell me that she planned on moving back to Wisconsin and I could join her if I wanted, but I just ignored him, my mother had lost all my respect, trust and love.
As for Marvin, we had had one awkward encounter while we saw each other in the cafeteria the day after I came back to set, but no words were exchanged and I hadn't seen or heard from him since, I just assumed he had left town.
Before I knew it I felt that car some to a halt. I burst out of the thought bubble I had constructed for myself while we were driving and looked at Chad.
"Sorry I'm so unsociable Chad, I'm just so tired," I lied.
"It's ok Sonny, I get how tiring being a pregnant teen can be." Chad said, "You can have all the space you need."
I don't know how I deserved a fiancée as understanding as Chad, I just knew I had to make him happy.
"Have you had the experience yourself?" I mocked, and noticed him smirk. I'm just glad I was still capable of that.
After getting out of the car we checked in at the hospital reception desk and took our seats in the waiting room. The sun was peeking in from gaps in the blinds and I knew it was beautiful summers day in late August. Thinking of the date made my stomach shrill. Only four months until the arrival of the baby!
"Sonny…" Chad began, breaking the silence between us I didn't even know existed, "I was thinking about our wedding and was wondering if you had any ideas?" Chad wondered.
"Actually I did. All I knw so far though is that I would really like a spring wedding. Maybe May?" I told Chad
"May." He repeated, "That sounds good to me. How about, May 22nd, to commemorate the due date of our baby?"
"That sounds perfect Chad." I said sweetly
Before I had I chance to disclose any more of the details about my wedding I had been planning secretly since the age of 3, a nurse called my name and we were led into an exam room. Before I even had a chance I adjust to my surroundings, Doctor Springer walked in.
"Hello Sonny, how have you been since we last saw each other, apart from the accident and the repercussion of it?" Doctor Springer asked intently.
I felt a surge of annoyance that she had called the loss of my baby a repercussion, I proceeded as if it hadn't bothered me.
"I've been god thank you, the morning sickness had reduced to just a pang of nauseas over the last few weeks and I'm feeling strong." I told the doctor.
"That's great progress Sonny. I believed you are here today for a check-up and to find out the gender of your baby?" Doctor Springer inquired.
I glanced at Chad as he sat nearby holding my hand. He gave a nod letting me know he did want to find out the gender of the baby, so I answered.
"Yes that's correct"
"Ok then, if you lie down on the bed we can begin."
I did as the doctor instructed and pondered why Chad was always so quiet and reserved in these encounters with Doctors.
As Chad sat up near my head, we both glared longingly at the screen waiting to see our baby.
"Ok then Sonny and Chad, here is your baby." Said Doctor Springer as she pointed to the screen.
Both me and Chad gazed at the baby like silhouette on the screen and our mouths was dangling open in awe.
"Sonny and Chad I can tell you now that you are having a…"
Thank you everyone for your kind reviews. I have already decided on a baby gender and a way to use the unused baby name and gender later on in the story, but I will let you know about that when the time comes. If you have any thoughts or tips don't hesitate to let me know, and please keep reviewing. Thank you again! Oh ad sorry about any mistakes there may be in this chapter, as I am so busy with coursework and it is very rushed, but I wanted to update!
