Alrighty then, here is the long awaited Ch. 10! Yeah! I am so glad I am getting lots of reviews on this and you guys really enjoy it. As long as you enjoy it, I will keep writing. I don't know if I will put up another chapter tonight, because it's getting late, and I just started and finished this chapter. I didn't get to do that much today because I subbed half a day. Yeah I know right, but they called me late because the other sub NEVER showed up! Ridiculous I know. How can you just not show up? Whatever. Ok yeah, I'm rambling AGAIN! Enough. Don't forget to review, favorite and follow. Thanks. See you next time! Enjoy!
A few months later, Elizabeth was now 5 months pregnant and she was now in her new school. It was a lot different then normal high school. It started later, but ended later. She would leave the house at around 8 and get home around 4:30. She was taking her regular classes along with classes that helped her become a mom. She enjoyed going to school. She even started to make some friends who were in the same situation as she was. She was also seeing her therapist twice a month. Which really helped her.
Ever since she talked to police, Matt hasn't tried to contact her. They eventually went to court and he was sentenced to 30 days in jail, was ordered to do community service, and received a restraining order. He wasn't allowed to come within 100 feet of Elizabeth or allowed to contact her.
Elizabeth was eventually getting used to her new routine. She was going for regular doctor visits, making sure she took her prenatal vitamins, and also making sure she ate enough for her and the baby.
Today she was going to the doctor for her monthly ultrasound. Blaine and Kurt always accompanied her, but today Lily would be going too. She didn't usually go, but the two girls have recently gotten closer.
The four of them were currently waiting in the doctor's office. Blaine and Kurt were looking at their phones, while Lily was reading a book and Elizabeth was looking at a parenting magazine.
"Elizabeth?" the nurse called. They all stood up and followed her into an exam room. They entered the room, and Elizabeth sat on the bed, while Blaine and Lily sat down on the chairs and Kurt stood next to Lizzie.
"How are you doing today?" the nurse asked.
"Tired, getting bigger, but I'm ok." Elizabeth answered, while rubbing her stomach.
The nurse smiled at her. "I'm just going to take your vitals, and then I'll get the doctor and she'll do your ultrasound. Sound good?"
"Sounds good." Lizzie replied.
The nurse started with her blood pressure. "You're blood pressure's good. Not too low or too high. Which is good. Now let's get your temperature." she stuck the thermometer under Lizzie's tongue.
A minute later it beeped. "Good. No fever. I'll go get the doctor now." she said, as she opened the door and left the room.
"What's the doctor going to do Lizzie?" Lily asked, curiously.
"She's going to look at the baby and make sure it's growing the way it should and she might ask me some questions." Elizabeth answered.
A few minutes later, the doctor walked in. "Hi Elizabeth." she greeted and looked at everyone in the room. "Looks like you brought everyone today."
"Yeah. This is my sister, Lily." she introduced her sister.
"Nice to meet you Lily." Dr. Shepard greeted Lily and she smiled. "So, Lizzie, how are feeling?" she asked.
"Tired. And getting bigger everyday." Lizzie replied.
"Are you feeling any discomfort at all?" Dr. Shepard started to ask her routine questions.
"Not really. I just feel pregnant." Lizzie laughed.
"Have you felt the baby move yet?"
Lizzie shook her head. "Not yet. I read in a pregnancy book that I should be feeling the baby move soon though."
"Yeah you should and then you might not be able to stop feeling it move." Dr. Shepard teased.
"Yeah, that's what some of my friends at school have been telling me." Lizzie added.
"So are you ready to take a look at your baby?" Dr. Shepard asked.
"Oh yeah." Lizzie answered.
"Ok. Why don't you lay down, lift your shirt up and we'll take a look." Dr. Shepard instructed.
Elizabeth lay back on the bed and lifted her shirt to reveal her belly.
Dr. Shepard squeezed the blue gel on her belly and Lizzie shivered. "Sorry, I know it's cold. They don't make it warmer which would be more helpful for a lot of my patients." Dr. Shepard commented. She then took the wand and started to move it around on Elizabeth's belly. The ultrasound screen then started to come alive.
"Is that the baby?" Lily asked.
"Yep." Dr. Shepard replied. She started to point at the screen, identifying the baby's body parts. "Right here, is the head and all of the facial features. And there's an arm and it looks like it's sucking it's thumb."
"Aww." Everyone said in unison as they admired the baby on the screen.
"Do you want to know what the sex of the baby is? I think I can probably tell if by now. That is if you want to know now. Otherwise you can wait." Dr. Shepard suggested.
Elizabeth thought for a minute before deciding. "I think I'm going to wait." she finally answered.
"Ok. That's fine." Dr. Shepard replied.
"Is everything else ok?" Kurt asked, concerned.
She looked back at the screen, still moving the wand over Lizzie's belly.
"Everything else looks great. Right now it looks like you are about 22 weeks. So you should start to feel the baby move any day now." Dr. Shepard finished and cleaned up Lizzie's belly. "I'll print up some pictures for you. And I'll see you in another month."
Elizabeth nodded and pulled her shirt back down and sat up, careful not to get dizzy.
Dr. Shepard handed her the pictures and they left the office.
Hope you enjoyed this. I hope to have another chapter up soon, but in the meantime, please leave a lovely review. Thanks.
