Chapter 11. The one with the sonogram.

I dragged my feet down the stairs in the morning. A morning that came way too early to my liking. It was Saturday a week since my sonogram was made and I just wanted it to have never happened. Pretending like it wasn't there. Taylor had gone to bed early last night, so Nathan and I had been talking about the baby.
He really loved the sonogram although I'm not sure he could even see the baby on it. But yes the sonogram made it so much more real.
I looked at Taylor at the kitchen counter. So stood there staring at a picture. "Good morning."I yawned at poured myself a cup of coffee. I was dying to have some caffeine.
When I sat down on the stool I had been sitting on last night, when I was talking to Nathan, I saw the picture in Taylors hand, which wasn't in fact a picture but the sonogram I had accidently left on the counter last night. Taylor looked up at me with a face that showed both pain and anger. "You're Pregnant?" she asked bitterly. I felt the tears in behind my eyes. "Yes." I replied. The sonogram, held the information on whose baby it was and how big it was. "Clay? Does he know."

I didn't know what to say. I had wanted to put it off as long as possible and when I began to show to just take off. Clay didn't have to be involved in this. "Yes." I said. I hoped that if she knew he knew she wouldn't bother him and then he would never know I was pregnant. "And? I mean you guys broke up-" I chuckled. "Yeah whose fault was that." I said sourly.

"So I guess you're going to stop as my nanny now. I mean you have your own baby to take care of."

Again Taylor seemed displeased I wondered what it would be like when I told her it was Nathan's.

"We'll see." I said taking the sonogram from her hands.
"Nathan gone yet?" I asked casually, when I started making breakfast for Jasper and Taylor.
"Nope, still snoring." She said flipping through her magazine.

Most of our conversations were like that. Question and answer.


"Mom! Hi God I missed you!" He hugged my mom when she came in. "I missed you too dear." She smiled. Taylor had called mom and dad when she found out and they promised to come as soon as possible. I could have killed at that point, but mom and dad needed a week or what to get here so here they were.
"How did my smartest girl get pregnant?" My dad mocked. I rolled my eyes. "It's called sex dad it's how you got six kids." I hugged my dad.

I was showing already even though I was about 13 weeks pregnant. I am a small person.

With going into the 13th week it also was the last chance I had to get an abortion, although I didn't want one it did keep coming to my attention. "So Tay.. where's that husband of yours." Nathan had on my advise gone elsewhere. He had a habit of hanging around me when it was about the baby and since my mom was very perceptive she would know.
Since Nathan wasn't here I figured it was the perfect time to announce my plans. "Taylor, mom, dad." I said, asking for attention while I sat down on the couch. "I have news."

My parents looked worried. Taylor mostly looked triumphal, she had proved she wasn't the only one to get pregnant by a random guy. "Tay, I'm moving out. I've found my own place and a part time job as an English teacher at a high school." I was proud of it.

Nathan did know this yet, he had hoped I would stick around. Raise our child here in this house so he could be there without raising conspicuous looks. I didn't want that, Taylor sneering comment had become much worse since she knew and I couldn't take it. Nathan said he needed more time to figure out how to do this. I was out of time.

"But how are you going to do that with the baby?" I had no idea. I couldn't actually ask Clay for any alimony and I didn't want to ask Nathan. Beside that there was the matter of crèche. I had saved enough money to live out my pregnancy, so after that I would see where we would end, me and my baby. "I don't know. I have saved some money and have Clay's alimony. I'll survive I always do."I replied.

"So when are you leaving?" Taylor asked, that all she cared about. "Tomorrow." I brought my hands to my tummy.
Taylor was less than pleased and my dad tried to calm her tirade, but it all want passed me completely. "Honey ere you sure?" My mom was rubbing my back. "Yes, I've had enough of Taylor." I hugged her tightly. "what did Clay say when you told him?" I shrugged. "He wasn't really interested, he's acknowledging his child." I had thought this lie through. In a way Clay was the father of my baby, but he would stay out of my life and so my parents wouldn't see him.

My mom saw the sonogram on the fridge and pulled it off. "It's very pretty." She smiled. "Mom it's a sonogram not a picture." I chuckled. "I know that dear, but don't you think that's the same? I can see he is going to look like you." I smiled at my mom. "It's he?" I asked her. I knew she couldn't see that on the sonogram, but my mom would determine that in a different way. "Yes, it looks like a boy."

The front door opened and Nathan came in, followed by a friend of his from the team Lewis. Lewis had been around a lot the last few weeks. "Ah, the in-laws." Lewis joked. I locked eyes with Nathan briefly. "Hey, Nate. Good news Haley has found a job and she's moving out."Taylor said cheerful.

I don't think Taylor ever saw me as an thread to her love life. Yet she was so happy that I was moving out. "Oh." Nathan said that was all he could.

I never wanted him to know before I actually left that would be easy, 'cause Nathan's eyes now showed pain. "Yeah, I thought it was time to move on. I've been here for about 6 months now so.." I trailed off.


That night I could sleep. I hadn't had the chance to talk to Nathan with my parents around. My decision to move out after I found out I was pregnant, was mainly a self-protection thing. Firstly because living in one house with him going through the motions of a pregnancy without him being able to help me, was painful. Would be painful. Secondly, because the chance of getting caught was so much bigger now and hell would be unleashed.
I turned over a couple of times, but I couldn't find my peace. Slid out of bed and put of my bathrobe and flip-flops.
Shuffling downstairs I heard a noise come from beneath and carefully came to look. Quickly I relaxed when I saw it was Nathan sitting at the counter. "Hi." I whispered, not wanting to wake anyone up. He didn't reply. I figured he was upset with me because I was moving out without talking to him about it, but was that a reason to act like a stubborn teenager?
I thought of going back upstairs but decided against it. "Are you okay Nathan?" I said sitting down next to him.
He sighed in a way I could only describe as annoyed. "What did you think? That it wouldn't bother me, that you decide these things without telling me. I'd like to remind you that it's my child too you're carrying." I sighed and closed my eyes. "Nathan, I never wanted to shut you out, but we have to be realistic!" I tried to keep my voice hushed. "How is you, living on your own and having a job realistic!" He hissed.

I rolled my eyes. "Oh tell me how me living here in this house with you and Taylor and Jasper is realistic-" He cut me off. "If that's so unrealistic then why are you living here?" I groaned, i didn't want to fight.

"If you'd let me finish, you would heard me saying; ..is realistic, when I'm going through all the side effects of a pregnancy. Because I'm going to want to have you there and you can't be because of Taylor!" The tears sprang in my eyes. Through the tears I saw Nathan's expression soften. He pulled me close and rubbed with his thumbs the tears from underneath my eyes. "I'm sorry Hales. I'm being selfish." He took me into his embrace. "It's going to be fine Hales." I took a deep breath. "I hope so." I took comfort in the safety of his arms for the time being.

After sitting there for a while holding each other Nathan spoke. "think you should go back to bed Hales, you need you rest so does our son." He smiled.
I frowned. "How said it was a boy?" I pulled out of his arms. Grinning he replied. 'I just feel it." I rolled my eyes and hopped off the chair. "Good night."
"Oh Hales, don't forget our son!" He called after me. I turned around as I was walking away. "It's not a boy and shh!" I whispered.
