Chapter 10: A new Surprise
It's been about an hour. We still don't have any news about Stella. Brandon is just pacing around the room while Sky went to the cafeteria to get us something to eat. I can only imagine how Brandon must feel.
"King Brandon?" the nurse asked.
"Yes!" Brandon nearly yelled as he ran up to the nurse. Sky walked over to me with a box of chocolate donuts. I immediately grab the box from his hands and open it, taking out 2 donuts. Boy, am I hungry. Sky just stares at me as though he wants to laugh.
"You can go see her now, the results will be in shortly". We hear the nurse telling Brandon.
"Guys, the nurse said that only I could go in for now, so I'm going in to see how she's doing". He says, and then leaves.
(Stella's POV)I'm lying on a hospital bed feeling more than just dizzy. Then the doorknob turns and I see Brandon walk in.
"Hey" He says quietly, sitting in a chair by my bed.
"Hey", I whisper back. I brush his hair back with my hand.
"You look tired", I tell him casually.
"You should see Sky", he says. We both start laughing.
"I was so worried about you Stella", he says, I can see it in his eyes. I take his hand in mine.
"I know, but you have nothing to worry about honey, I'm better now", I say to him smiling, "everything's okay".
Just then the nurse walks in along with the doctor.
"King Brandon and queen Stella, I have received the results of the queen's condition", the doctor says with a smile on his face.
"Well, how is she?" Brandon asks, still a bit worried.
"Congratulations your majesties, you're expecting a baby". The doctor happily announced. For once, I, Stella, was speechless. Brandon wasn't very different.
"She's, I mean we're, having a baby?" Brandon asked.
"Yes, you are", the doctor said again, "I'll leave you two alone". He said as he and the nurse left the room.
"Wow, a baby, this is great," I say looking at him.
"Yea, it is". He says, looking at me. "I know that we don't know what the baby's gender is or anything, but I'm really hoping that it turns out to be a beautiful baby girl with chocolate brown eyes, like you". He says. I feel like I'm about to cry. I hold his hand tightly.
"Brandon, that is so sweet", I tell him, "I hope she has your soft dark brown hair, and bright, dazzling smile". He gives my hand a light squeeze.
"You really think my smile is dazzling?" he says jokingly. I laugh slightly.
"Of course it is", I tell him. I can't wait to tell Bloom that I'm pregnant. Now she'll have some company, funny.
Later that afternoon, I was let out of the hospital. We told the rest of the guys and girls to meet us at a park near the hospital just to see each other and hang out like we sometimes do. I miss just hanging out with them. The first to arrive were Flora and Helia, who walked over to us hand in hand. While they were walking I noticed Helia take a flower from a nearby tree, and put it in Flora's hair. She just laughed and kissed his cheek. They are so sweet.
"Hey guys", Helia greeted.
"Hey you guys, how are you" I ask them.
"Great, Bloom sweetie, how are you feeling?" Flora asks Bloom while putting her hand gently over Bloom's stomach.
"I'm doing okay Flora". She says smiling. Bloom winks at me; Flora looks between the both of us, not understanding.
"Stella will tell you when everyone else gets here", Bloom says. Shortly after, everyone else arrived.
"Guys, Stella and I have something we want to tell you", Brandon announces, taking my hand.
"Well, what is it?" Musa asks.
"Yea sweetie, we're all anxious to know". Flora says.
"Well, you guys, Brandon and I are going to have a baby" I say to them. They all start cheering and saying things like 'oh that's great', and 'how cute'.
"Well Bloom, looks like now you have company", Techna says. We all start laughing.
"Hey that's what I thought" I say. Bloom is, by the way, almost seven months pregnant now. If her stomach looks this big now, I wonder how it will look by her ninth month. After we stopped talking about my pregnancy, Brandon said,
"Hey guys I've been meaning to show you some new advances on my leva bike". All the guys were so interested, so us girls hit the mall. Typical, huh?
While we were walking through the mall, we had to sit for a while at least twice because Bloom now gets tired pretty fast. And we had to buy her a box of donuts to keep her going. I don't think I've ever seen her eat so much.
"How're you liking those donuts, Bloom?" Layla asks her, handing her a soda.
"Their great, thanks Layla".
(Bloom's POV)
I can't believe I'm actually eating this much. I don't think I've never been hungrier in my life.
We are now inside of a huge store sitting on a bench next to the dressing rooms. Stella and Flora are each in a dressing room, trying out different outfits, while Musa and Layla are looking for other clothes. I'm sitting on the bench with Techna resting for a few minutes, before getting back up and looking through clothes again. Stella is looking for a dress to her and Brandon's anniversary.
"Okay guys, here I come", She announces before coming out of the dressing room.
It turned out to be a beautiful light golden dress with golden high heels. The dress has thin straps and reaches a little below her knees. It's simple, and yet looks so elegant.
"Wow, Stella, you look amazing", I say. The girls say the same.
"Thanks, now all I need is a hair due, earrings and a necklace to match". Flora's dress, on the other hand, was red, and a bit longer than Stella's and also had little diamond beads on the straps. We also complimented her on how beautiful she looked.
"Hey Bloom, did you talk to Ms. Faragonda?" She suddenly asks.
"No, why?" I ask her.
"Well, because you have seven months now, are you still going to teach?" She asks. Good point, very good point.
"I haven't even thought of that, I guess I'll just have to talk to her on Monday at Alfea. Sky is dropping me off at my class from now on". I tell them.
"Oh you mean like at the gates of Alfea", Techna says.
"No, I mean like at the door of the classroom", I tell them. Yep, now that I have seven months and that I get tired more easily, he's going to drop me off right at the door, not that I really mind.
"Helia's taking me out to a restaurant this weekend, I can't wait". She says looking at herself in the mirror.
"Where's he taking you?" Layla asks.
"Oh to a restaurant, which is near a beautiful garden on his realm. I've heard it's a very calm and romantic place and the food is great", she says excitedly.
"That is so sweet of him, which reminds me, I have no idea where Brandon is taking me!" Stella says, we all laugh.
'I'm sure it'll be a fabulous place", Techna tells her reassuringly.
"I know it will be, I'm just so excited". She says. For the rest of the afternoon, we continued to shop and even looked for baby toys and items like bottles and blankets. We can't really buy to many clothes since we still don't know the gender, but we did buy a few clothes, rainbow or yellow colors. After that, we met the guys at the park again, and each went home.
Hey guys, thank you so much for all the reviews I got! You all rock. I've been reading the reviews and the suggestions that people are giving me and I'm trying to put each one into the story and still use my ideas. And even though I'm giving Stella some time to shine, Bloom also has and will have her moments, and everyone else will have them too depending on the reviews I get. Let me know what couples you still want more of. I will update again soon and try to make the chapter longer, I hope you guys like this chapter. Please continue reviewing. God bless you all.
XOXO
