A/N I re-fell in love with this story. After re-reading it, I realized how much potential this actually has. It's not half bad! So, I'm going to work on this one for a while.
Chapter 10
I know we've only been in the car for about fifteen minutes, but I'm tired. Tweek's already dozed off against the window in the front seat with Her arms wrapped around Her stomach.
"Are we there yet?" Instead of answering, Craig simply reaches behind him to flip me off.
"Right. So, anything you wanna talk about, Angel?" I ask before a large yawn takes over my body.
"Kenny, get some sleep and before you know it, we'll be back in my driveway."
"You sure?"
"I like driving in quiet. I can speed and don't have to worry about distractions."
"Fair enough." I stretch out my long limbs as much as I can in the backseat, and shut my eyes.
~X~
"We're here." He announces seconds after I register the car has been shut off. I look at the clock.
"Craig, we left Denver an hour and a half ago. It should take three to get here." He flips me off and exits the car. I get out to open the door for Tweek, who's still sleeping in the front seat.
"Tweek, we're here, babe." I glide my knuckles against Her soft cheek.
"Ngh. Oh, okay." She crawls from her seat out of the car. She's so adorable when She has no idea what the hell is going on.
"KENNY!" I suddenly hear from the direction of the Tucker's front door. I whip around to find Ruby running up to me.
"Hey!" She jumps up on me and throws her arms around my neck. I lift her up and swing her around once before putting her down again.
Ruby's always liked me way more than her own brother. Since I stayed at their house after my mom died and my house burnt down, I really grew on the Tuckers. Legally I should have stayed with my dad, but the government doesn't care too much about people as poor as us.
"I missed you, Kenny! And Tweek!" She wraps her arms around my girl. Quickly the young ginger realizes something is keeping distance between her and the blonde she's hugging.
"Huh?" Ruby steps back to look at Tweek. Her grey eyes grow big and her jaw drops at Tweek's transformed body.
"Holy shit! What happened to you?"
"Long story." Tweek shrugs and gives Ruby a half smile. I walk between the two girls and wrap my arms around their shoulders to lead them to the house.
"Alright, Craig and I will carry the stuff in. Don't worry about anything, Tweeky." I kiss my beautiful blonde's cheek and the two girls walk into the house; Ruby is still utterly confused.
"You know we're going to have to explain this to your family, right?" I ask Craig while we grab our packs from the trunk.
"Oh yeah. I thought about it all the way here."
"Yeah the whole hour and a half it took you." He flips me off before closing the trunk.
~X~
"So, she got a sex change from a pill to cure her anxiety and a.d.d. and because you three can't control yourselves, he… I mean, she is pregnant?" Ruby repeats a summary of the story to make sure she understands. We've sat down Craig's parents and sister in the living room to get it done in one sitting.
"Yes." Craig responds.
"And now you need a place to stay so you three can find a home to raise this fucked up child in?" Mr. Tucker asks.
"Yes." Craig responds again.
"Whatever. Just as long as it comes out with ten fingers, ten toes, and only one set of genitals, I don't care." Mrs. Tucker tells us while getting up. Mr. Tucker nods and does the same, and the two leave the room.
"So now I, like, have a big sister to go shopping with?" Ruby asks Tweek.
"I'm not very good at shopping." Tweek tells her truthfully.
"But that top! It's so cute!" Ruby is referring to the single-long-sleeved aquamarine shirt with a darker green flower design on the bottom corner opposite to the sleeve.
"I do all of Tweek's shopping." I admit.
"Whatever. Come on, I'll do your hair and makeup!" Ruby grabs Tweek's hand and pulls Her off to the 15-year-old's room. That'll be interesting.
~X~
I would love to say Craig is cute when He sleeps, but that'd be a lie. His eyebrows furrow and His face twists into this 'forever irritated' expression. I slip onto the double bed He's been napping on for about an hour now. To think we shared this same bed for so many years.
"Angel," I whisper into His ear. I lift the bottom of His shirt and glide my fingers across His skin. Cute or not, He's still sexy.
"Hm?" His eyelids flutter open and His charcoal eyes glance to me. "Where's Tweek?" Of course She's His first concern.
"She's having a shower to get all that hairspray and makeup off." It sucks, She wouldn't even let us see.
"Hm. Alright." He clears His throat and places His hand on my arm that's across His belly. "What's up?"
"Angel, I was thinking about something." I shift my body closer to His and nuzzle my nose to His neck. "What do you think about raising the baby to call you 'Father' and me 'Daddy'?"
"And what brought you to think about this?"
"Well, 'Father' sounds more authoritative and serious, which you are, and 'Daddy' just sounds more fun. You know?" His eyebrows furrow.
"I can be fun." He deadpans. How convincing. "But that sounds fine, Ken." My hand travels from His stomach to His face. I turn his chin to face His to me and begin to kiss his dry lips. I honestly can't wait to father a kid with Him.
"Angel, I think we'll be great dads."
"I have to agree." He pecks my lips once more.
~X~
So, it's the end of June and we still haven't left the Tuckers. We're yet to find somewhere in Denver to live to raise the baby.
The Tucker's have been paying for all the expenses of taking classes and all of the prenatal care for the past month. I think we've thanked them a gazillion times for that one. MOM is pissed that we're taking this long, but really, there's only so much we can do.
"I think I found a place, but I'll know for sure by the time you guys get back." Craig tells me at the doorway as Tweek and I leave for a doctors appointment at Hell's Pass Hospital. Oh, how I spent many-a-nights at that place when I was young.
"Alright, Angel." I peck his lips and walk to the car where Tweek is waiting in the passengers seat. She's been wearing light makeup for the past few weeks, and dayum is She stunning. Just gorgeous this girl.
~X~
"So, how far along are you, Miss. Tweak?" The doctor asks as he takes a seat beside the bench Tweek is on.
"I'm fifteen weeks."
"Uh-huh. Shall we take a look?" Tweek nods and lays down on the bench. The doctor lifts Her shirt and begins to press down. "Fifteen weeks? You're sure?" I don't like his tone.
"Yeah, I'm sure." Tweek responds in a rather questioning tone.
"Huh." The dude writes something down in Her file. "I'm going to get you to get dressed in a gown and I'll bring you for an ultrasound, alright?"
"Is there something wrong?" Tweek asks just as concerned as I would have asked.
"You're a lot larger than women usually are at the beginning of their second trimester." Tweek changes and we exit the tiny room to follow the doctor to the ultrasound room. Shit, I'll die if there is anything wrong with this kid.
"I'll be right back Tweek, I just need a bathroom break." I tell Her just after the ultrasound technician finishes squirting jelly on Tweek's belly. I don't really need to go for a piss as much as I need to get out of this so I'll quit freaking out.
A/N So, this story isn't going to end at chapter 15.5. I think I'll do another round with all three of them before I finish this. I really do like this. Like, it's messed up, sure, but lovely in it's imperfection… To me at least.
By the way, I don't feel like working on WGGTJLC&C right now, so this story will be updated frequently in the next few weeks. And if any of my readers ever want to know what story I'm working on, in my profile I update the section 'My Stories' often, so check it out.
