*****Two more weeks later*****
It was eight on a Tuesday morning in Titans Tower. All but Terra were awake and eating breakfast. They were all sitting around watching the morning news on the T.V. A news bulletin regarding the Titans came on:
"Reports are coming in that one of the Teen Titans is sick or maybe quit or is vacationing, Terra, has not been seen fighting with the Titans now for about five or six weeks. We are not sure on why this is, if anyone does know please call us at 556-555-5575. There will be rewards for anyone who can give us any information."
All fell silent in the room. They knew that it would get out but not this soon. They were worried.
"Well. This sucks." Cyborg said.
"Yes, I am in agreement." Starfire contributed to the small conversation.
"We told the doctor that he wasn't to tell anybody but with rewards involved, he might. I'll call him when Terra gets up. She might not want this out yet." Beast boy told the rest of the group without knowing Terra had just walked into the room.
"What do I not want people to know? That I'm pregnant? They are going to find out anyways, I might as well go down to the station before class today and tell them myself. Wanna come Beast boy?" Terra sounded kinda pissed as she said this.
"Might as well." He answered her as he got up to get her breakfast and tea. "How are you feeling today sweetie?"
"Sick. And fat. So pregnant basically." She answered. She was still tired, he could tell. She was up late the night before puking. All he could do was just hold her hair back and rub her back. He wanted to do something.
They finished there breakfast and showered. It was about eleven when they got down to the news station. As soon as they got in, people were all around her asking questions. When she took off her hoodie, everyone got their answer.
"Terra, darling, so this is why you're not fighting?" A news reporter asked. Her name tag said Stephanie.
"Yeah, doctor's orders."
"How far along are you?" Everyone asked that question.
"Four weeks."
"Wow."
The women continued to chat for another ten minutes and they went back to the tower. Once they got there they went up to the nursery to do a little work on it before they had to go to parenting class. This class only lasted for another two weeks. The birthing class continued for another two months. Which was good. Terra was really nervous about it. She liked how the nursery was turning out. It was a pale green and the lighting was now perfect. Today they were putting up some off the wall paper that would go around the room.
"Terra, honey, I think your parents should come stay with us for a little bit or at least visit." Beast boy said when they were up there and the door was closed.
"That's not a good idea."
"Why not? They need to meet me and know you're pregnant. Maybe your mom can help."
"Well I don't want my step dad anywhere near here. I don't want him to know where I live. If my mom knows, she'll tell him and bring him with her. She always takes his side and never believes me. He can't know where I am."
"Why baby? What happened?"
"Well, he used to hit me and molest me. I tried to tell my mom but she thought I was making it up and that I just wanted even more attention then I already had. So I left home when I was fourteen to live with my older brother and twin brother but my powers were too out of control so I had to find a new place by the time I was fifteen, that's why I came here." She started to tear up a little bit. "I've told my brothers already, they're coming up tomorrow for a couple days. I'll call my mom and tell her but she isn't visiting."
"Okay, it's okay. As long as I meet your brothers I'll be happy. How old is your older brother?"
"Twenty two"
"Okay. Sounds good. Go call your mom. Use the cell phone with the blocked number so she can't trace it. Then take a nap. I'll get you before class."
"Thanks baby. I love you beast boy."
"And I love you too Terra."
Terra went into her and Beast boy's room. She picked up the blocked cell phone and started to dial her mom's cell phone. She dialed and heard ringing.
'please go to voicemail. Please go to voicemail.' Terra was so hoping she wouldn't have to speak to her or worse, the devil incarnate.
"Hello?" it was her mother.
"Hi, mom. It's Terra."
"TERRA?! My goodness I haven't spoken to you in about three years now almost four, how are you darling?"
"Been better. I was working for some evil guy who raped me a lot. I was a statue for about a year and a half. And I'm married now and I'm pregnant. And I'm safe now."
"Married! Pregnant! Where are you sweetie I gotta come see you."
"No mom. You can't. You'll bring him."
"Of course I'm going too. He's your father. He should be able to see you and meet your husband. Terra, why don't you want us to come?"
"It's not you that I don't want to come. It's him."
"And why is that?"
"Well maybe because he abused and molested me. Yepp that's it. I don't want him anywhere near me."
"I thought you'd be done with this lie by now Terra. You're seventeen years old. This shouldn't still be going on."
"I never lied mom. Alex and Kevin know, they believe me, they caught him doing it to me once mom. They told you and you didn't believe them either."
"Yes, because he wouldn't do that."
"Look, my husband wanted me to tell you. I told you. Now good bye."
Terra hung up the phone and settled down to take a nap. It was 4:30 right now. She could nap for an hour before she had to leave for class. Mean while beast boy was in the nursery finishing up the wall paper. Cyborg walked in.
"How are you so put together man? I haven't seen you lose it once." Cyborg asked him.
"You know, Robin asked the same thing. It's not that hard. I wanted this with Terra someday, not this soon but I wanted it. I love her. I may not have planed for this right now but I'm okay with it."
"You're really good with her. You're doing so well. I had my doubts at first, I thought you wouldn't be this responsible. I'm glad you are."
"Well, everyone is really helpful. It's not just me and her, it's like all of us. We're a family here. Dysfunctional yes, but a family anyways." Beast boy looked down at his watch. "5:30 I gotta go wake up Terra so we can go to class. See ya."
He walked out of the room to his and Terra's. Woke her up and got them to class. Today they were working on meal schedules for infants and small children. It compared the differences between formula and breast feeding, both the good and the bad of each. Terra decided on breast feeding to save money, formula is expense plus it had chemicals in it. They got back to the tower and about 7:30. It was time to feed Terra and baby.
"Hey guys, we're back!" Terra yelled throughout the tower as they walked into the common area.
"Good, we got a surprise for you two." Robin called out back to her.
They hung up their jackets and walked in. She looked at the couch and there were Alex and Kevin sitting next to Raven on the couch.
"ALEX! KEVIN! You weren't supposed to be here till tomorrow. This is awesome." She said as she ran up and hugged them both. They stood up to make things easier for her. They were much taller then she was. It was kinda funny actually. "Well guys this is my husband, Beast boy or Garfield. Gar this is my big brother Alex and my twin Kevin."
"Nice to meet you both." Beast boy said and stuck out his hand for them to shake. They both complied.
"Terra, this one is so cute, hold on to him." Alex said in a sly voice.
"Alex, your gay is showing." Terra joked with him. They could all tell he was obviously gay. The way he dressed and talked and well he called B.B cute, that's a give away.
"How's my little sis doing? Aside from pregnant that is." Kevin asked her playfully.
"You're older then me by five minutes, so shut up. I'm doing ok. I'm not a statue so I'm doing great. We need to catch up. I've missed you."
"I've missed you too. How about the four of us go upstairs to talk?" He suggested.
"Okay, in ten minutes. Me and baby gotta fucking eat." Terra called out as she ran to the fridge. She threw the door open and started to reheat some chicken and mashed potatoes. Once warm she brought it upstairs with her, the boys followed.
