Maya's POV
"Here." I said handing my urine sample to the nurse and walking back to my room where Owen was waiting.
"Thank you Maya the doctor will be here in a minute." The nurse said closing the door.
I lay back on the exam table and Owen took my hand while we waited for the doctor.
"Hi Maya, Owen welcome to your six month visit. How are you feeling May?" The doctor asked.
"Well my back is starting to hurt and this kid is kicking like a rockette. I've been having bad heartburn too." I told him.
"Yes that's all normal. Are you taking antacids for the heartburn?" He asked.
"Yes and watching what I eat." I reply.
"Very good, would you like to hear the heartbeat while I do a pelvic exam and check your uterus?" The doctor asks.
"Yes very much." I nod and look at Owen who's smiling.
I loved hearing our son's heartbeat and so did Owen. After the pelvic exam the doctor checked my hands and feet for swelling and asked about the baby's movements and a few more questions.
"Everything looks good, see the receptionist on the way out to make an appointment in two weeks." The doctor says and leaves the room.
Owen helped me get me shoes back on and helps me down from the table. We make an appointment for two weeks and the receptionist reminds us to register with the hospital. We go out and get in Owen's car and then our son kicks.
"Oh." I say as I sit down.
"What?" Owen asks looking at me from the driver's seat.
"He's kicking again oh he just moved, give me your hand." I say and Owen puts his hand on my belly and I move it to the right spot.
"Wow he's doing summersaults." Owen smiles. "I love you Maya."
"I love you too." I said back as Owen started the drive back to the house.
"Looks like people decided to show up while we were gone." I said when we pulled in pointing at Luke's car along with Eli's.
"Yep wonder what's going on." Owen said helping me out and walking up to the porch.
"Hey where's everyone at?" Owen asked as we walked in a see no one around.
"Were in here." I heard Heather say towards where the rooms were being built, and as we walked towards there we seen a finished room painted green in our room and blue in the baby's and completely finished with everything in its spot, shocking Owen and I.
After thanking our friends and Heather and James we all headed into the living room to hang around for the day.
"How was the Dr.'s appointment?" Katie asked sitting in between Jake and Tristan.
"It was good the Dr. just said for me to watch what I eat and to register with the hospital before the baby is born.
"Which is what we'll do before the classes tomorrow since it's the last ones." Owen said putting his arm around me looking at everyone.
"What classes?" Luke asked confused along with Zig since they haven't been around since before the shower.
"We've been going to birthing classes and baby classes so we know what to do when the baby's born." I said rubbing my stomach as the baby kicked me shocking the boy's.
"Whoa!" Zig said in shock as Luke asked if he can feel it kick.
"What never seen a baby kick before dude, and he's actually starting to move in there to." Owen told them laughing at Zig's face.
"Luke give me your hand." I said grabbing his hand and putting it in the spot he was kicking at.
"That's amazing." Luke said as Zig answered Owen "No I've never really been near a pregnant woman before Maya, I'm an only child."
"So have you been able to sleep at night with him moving and kicking?" Adam asked next to Becky.
"If I get in a certain spot I can but it's mostly on and off sleep and tossing and turning to get comfortable, and causing Owen to wake up." I said before smiling up at Owen apologizing.
"You don't wake me, if your uncomfortable then wake me so I can make you comfortable." Owen said sweetly then kissing me causing the other girls to awe.
"So what are you going to do when school starts back up?" Eli asked me wondering.
"At the end of the month were going to talk to Principal Simpson, on what will be going on." I replied back at him.
"Are you still going to be on Ice Hound dude with everything going on with school you working and the baby coming?" Luke asked looking over at his teammate.
"Yeah I'm going to do it all. Peter knows that I'm on the team still and said we would work it out." Owen said nodding over to Luke.
"He has been pretty good about everything, and even with the trouble with Alli and Tori." I said looking up at Owen.
"What trouble?" Luke Becky and Adam asked in unison.
"A couple times I've been at the Dot with Owen working Alli and Tori have always came to cause trouble." I said explaining to them.
"Oh. So dude glad you'll still be on the team cause with Dallas gone, thank god!" Luke said causing us to laugh before continuing "we need all the strength we've got, and of course rookie will be back."
"Right forgot about him. I hope he stays away from me." I said remembering Cam will be back.
"He will, we'll make sure of it." Owen said waving his hand at Luke and himself.
"School will definitely be interesting between Alli, Tori, Cam and the other gossips making trouble but we'll all be with you. Spin and Em are back in town tomorrow and I'm having dinner over there tomorrow night. I'll talk with Snake, I mean Mr. Simpson about how to handle them especially since Alli and Tori have been making trouble all summer." Clare said to me from her spot in Eli's arms.
"Great Spinner's back." Eli groaned with a roll of his eyes.
"You only don't like him because he threatened to kill you." Clare shrugged.
Me and Owen started laughing while the others looked at them confused. Our friends hung out until dinner time and then everyone went home so we could eat as a family.
"We're really lucky we have such great friends." I smiled as Owen helped me off the couch to go eat.
"Yes we are. I love you." He said kissing me softly.
"I love you too." I smiled as we walked to the dining room hand in hand.
Owen's POV
"Since this is your last class we'll be watching a video of a live birth. Only the last half hour though, the whole labor was 32 hours." Our instructor said.
"Holy shit 32 hours!" I exclaimed as quietly as I could and squeezing Maya's hand hating to think of her in labor for that long.
The instructor put the video on and Maya leaned back against me to watch. I wrapped my arms around her and then cringed as the first thing I saw was a woman that was screaming and sweaty and looked exhausted and in terrible pain. Then the camera moved and I saw the baby's head coming out wholly fuck it was worse than the worst gory horror movie I have ever seen. I cringed and held Maya a little tighter hating to think about her going through this. When the video ended I still felt pretty sick, the instructor was talking telling us that every birth is different and not all of them last so long and some other stuff but I couldn't hear her I was still thinking about what I just saw.
"Well that was interesting for our last class." I said when it was over and helped Maya up.
"Yeah, it was kind of scary let's hope my labor goes easier than that woman's. We should go register." Maya said as we walked out.
We walked downstairs and found the nurse's station at labor and delivery.
"We need to register for a…that is my girlfriends pregnant and we need to register." I told her.
"Do you want a birthing suite or a delivery room?" The nurse asked and I looked at Maya.
"What's the difference?" Maya asked.
"The suite allows more people in the room, grandparent's siblings, doula, and friends. The delivery rooms are smaller, only you two and the birthing team but you can opt for one with a birthing tub if you like." The nurse tells us.
"A regular delivery room will be fine." Maya says.
"Okay fill this out with you OB/GYN and your expected delivery date and bring it back to the desk when you're done." The nurse said handing me a clipboard with some forms.
We sat down and I filled out the forms then took them to the nurse and she said she'd get us registered and then we went home.
"I love sleeping in our new room." Maya smiled when we were home and in our room.
"Me too Baby." I smiled before kissing her.
Maya's POV
It was really nice out today and Owen had to work so I decided to go with him for a while since the other Milligan's were out for the day.
"Hey Peter." I said walking in with Owen behind me as we walked into the semi quiet Dot.
"Hey Maya decide to come hang around here while your hubby worked." Peter said joking at the hubby part as Owen shoved him lightly as he headed towards the lounge.
"But of course, can you get me some juice please." I asked handing him the money and grabbed my juice as Owen came back from the lounge.
"Hey babe I'm going to go sit and reading some more." I said pointing to a table and nodding to him.
"Ok, let me know if you need anything." Owen said kissing me then helping Peter with some of the customers that showed up.
After a while of reading I headed up to the counter to talk to the boys since it slowed down a bit when I heard my name being called.
"Maya!" I turned when I heard my name and seen Luke Becky and Adam walking in as Becky called for me and headed towards where Owen, Peter and I were sitting.
"Hey guys." I said hugging them all while Owen just nodded at them.
"How's everything been going?" Becky asked sitting next to me as Luke and Adam sat on either side of us.
"Good, we got registered with the hospital, and finished our classes. Now we just have to go to the Dr.'s every two weeks since its getting closer to the due date." I explained to the others.
"That's good. So Owen can you get us some food please?" Luke said changing the subject to food like all guys do.
After taking their orders we introduced Luke and Becky to Peter since they've never met, and since it was silent in the dot went to some chairs and sat down to talk.
"You two decided on a name yet?" Luke asks.
"No we're still discussing that." I smile.
"You're parents still haven't even tried to contact you?" Becky asked.
"No not at all but Katie and I get together at least once a week although she has to lie about it." I tell them.
"So how are you guy's enjoying the new room?" Adam asks changing the subject to something happier and I'm grateful for it.
"We love it! Thank you guys again for all your help." I tell them.
"It was fun, decorating the room and getting everything set up. " Becky smiles.
"Have you heard from Clare? She had dinner at Simpson's a few nights ago and…" Luke was cut off by a shrill voice from the doorway belonging to my former best friend.
"My my Maya trying to sell favors to Luke too? Is there no Ice Hound you won't screw or screw over?"
"Shut up niner" Luke threw back at them with his glaring eyes along with the rest of the guys, I'm so glad there's hardly and customers right now.
"Ooh good comeback braniac" Alli said crossing her arms and glaring at us all with Tori behind her.
"At least he uses his brain." I throw back at them causing Owen, Peter, Adam and Becky to start laughing at the shocked look on the girls faces.
"Shut up Maya at least my parents love me." Tori yelled back causing the table to turn silent and then erupt.
"Why don't you get the hell out and from now on you're banned from here." Peter yelled as he stood while the other guys started yelling to as I stayed sitting as if I was frozen.
"She does have a family, us we're her family." Luke yelled back at them.
"Damn right she does!" Owen said back bumping fist with Luke.
"Oh please, she probably begged you to be her family." Alli said using air quotes with her fingers.
"It's called having friends, something you bitches would know nothing about." Adam yelled as he stood with Becky who looked pissed also.
"We do to have friends." Tori replied back.
"Then where are they Tori? Wouldn't they be hanging with you if you had friends?" I asked standing up and walking a little closer and having trouble seeing.
"They were busy." Was all Alli could say.
"Baby? Are you ok?" I could hear Owen ask as he saw my face and I ignored it.
"Sure they were, so why don't you do what Peter said and get out. You're not wanted here." Was all I could get out before I passed out scaring everyone especially Owen.
