Chapter Ten
Beth was sound asleep until she heard something drop on the floor of the room with a loud thud.
"Sorry to wake you," said Mick.
"It's okay I needed to wake up anyway. I take it that you've already been to my place?"
"Yeah we just got back. We brought most of your stuff back here,"
"Everything go okay?"
"Yeah until Josh showed up and Josef told him that he got you pregnant. Josh tried to rearrange Josef's face,"
"I should have known that would happen. Well it's my fault that this happened anyway, I used the Black Crystal to get Josef to sleep with me. This all my fault,"
"That stuff was more powerful then I first thought it to be. I guess it was made to affect both vampire and human. I should have made sure you got rid of the stuff after I saw what it did to you,"
"I was the one who decided to keep not you. You're not to blame for what happened Mick. Hell even Josef isn't to blame, I'm the only one to blame,"
Beth rested her hand on her stomach and felt it give a slight flutter and she couldn't help but smile. Her baby was growing stronger with everyday. Just then her stomach started to growl and she couldn't help but smile.
"Looks like you and the small one needs some food. I'll go see if Josef has anything that can pass as human food,"
"Could you tell Josef that that Katie wants to see us tomorrow night at six so she can give us more information about being pregnant with a vampires baby,"
Mick nodded and then walked out of the room. He found Josef in the kitchen looking at the contents of his fridge. Then he closed the door and sighed.
"Remind me again why I bought that thing?"
"To keep up appearances; it would be strange if you didn't have a fridge in your home. So do have any food in that thing Beth and the baby are getting hungry,"
"Okay let's see what I got in this kitchen,"
Josef walked around his kitchen and finally pulled some food together and made a salad and a turkey sandwich. He heard what sounded like laughing coming from where Mick was standing.
"Care to tell me what's so funny?"
"I'm sorry but seeing you working in a kitchen is just too funny. I never knew you had such domestic skills,"
"I know my way around a kitchen but don't let it out or my image will be toast,"
"Don't worry your secret is safe with me. By the way the doctor wants to see us tomorrow night at six to talk about the baby in private,"
"Okay I'll clear my schedule for tomorrow night then. I want to know everything that is going on with you and the baby. Plus I want to see if the doctor has any more surprises in store for us,"
"Okay now let's get this food to Beth so she can eat,"
"I'm going to have to send someone to the grocery store. The milk that I had in there expired 15 years ago so I guess I should get some more. I hear pregnant woman need to drink milk,"
"That's just wrong, why in the hell did you keep the stuff for so long,"
"Because I haven't opened the fridge in 15 years,"
"What about the freshies?"
"They don't use this part of the house,"
"Well next time check the fridge a couple of times a month,"
Okay that is the end of chapter ten. The next one should be up either tonight or tomorrow morning, at least that's the plan anyway.
