I'm an update ninja again! Woot! The voting on the gender was pretty much even so I flipped a coin! Also my formatting kind of sucks so I've been trying to work on it. If there's anymore problems with it constructive criticism is always lovely.
Gender
"Dad… Do you think maybe I should drive? Ya know, until you stop crying and all." He was a mixture between terrified and annoyed, his father was acting like he didn't know how to drive, and refused to obey traffic laws while he was crying "tears of joy" in the drivers seat. His father turned his head all the way around to talk to him, not even slowing down the car while doing so.
"Nonsense! You lovebirds sit back there and relax, who do you thinks driving when she's in labor. You'll be an emotional wreck!" His dad turned back around and finally watched the road again. The doctors office was a short drive, but he had a feeling he was going to die before he got there. His fathers comment bothered him for two reasons. For one his driving was less than adequate and two he probably would be freaking out the minute her water broke.
He decided then he needed to plan ahead for that, he self consciously grabbed her hand, he wasn't sure if it was the though of her going into labor or the fact his dad just sped through a stop sign. "Me an emotional wreck? Look at you! Were not even there yet and you're crying like a baby. By the way pop that stop sign was not a suggestion."
His dad ignored his comment all together babbling on about grand kids. "I can't wait! My first grand child! I'm so excited, I cant wait till theres ten of them running around." Both of the back seat passengers looked at the driver like he was insane, then looked at each other slightly worried.
"The hell do ya mean ten? What are you trying to do to my body? I'll be as big as a house!" He had to stop her from slapping his dad, he was driving bad enough already. She kicked the back of his seat instead"Why cant you be happy with one little bundle of joy." she asked his dad raising an eyebrow.
"You kids must think I'm a lot older than I am. I'll love any grandchild of mine, but the way you two are rolling around theres bound to be more." there was a long awkward silence between them. The first thoughts were confusion, then embarrassment. "oh kids don't take that the wrong way, I was walking to the bathroom last night and I just so happen to over hear a few things."
"Dear god… Kill me now…" he whispered trying to avoid the equally embarrassed gaze of his girlfriend and the disturbingly proud look from his father in the rear view mirror. "Dad, please stop talking now… Your words are painfully embarrassing." His father laughed at his response and slammed on the breaks, finally stopping the ride from hell. "What in hell dad?"
"Were here! Its baby time!" His father sprinted into the clinic before either of them had a chance to get out the car. By time he had the chance to help her out of the car and walk inside his father was already bouncing in his seat and waving for them to sit by him. "I save you kids seats!" He looked over to see if she was just as embarrassed as him, but she was just trying to hide her laughter. At least someone was amused by his fathers behavior.
Sitting in waiting rooms was always annoying, especially with an annoying father, waiting for an annoying doctor with an even more annoyed girlfriend. He decided to sit in-between the two of them in hopes to stop his father from reaching over and rubbing her belly every two-seconds. But of course it wasn't that easy, his father knew nothing about the term personal space and kept reaching across his lap to rub her belly. "Dad stop it!" he finally said after the third time.
"What? No, i'm bonding with my grand baby. Plus if I don't get them all rilled up, the baby will stay sleep and we still don't know what were having." He was starting to regret inviting his father to the doctors appointment with them, he should of knew better than to think he would actually behave himself for once. Despite his annoyance, he was glad he kind of had the practice of dealing with a kid, his father was the definition of man child.
*Were?* His father finally calmed down and his attention was focused on whatever he was reading in a family planning magazine. *Finally, some peace* he rubbed his temples and finally relaxed, slouching in his chair. Attempting to be both smooth and sneaky, to avoid another outburst from his dad. He turned to look as his father who was to his left and put his arm around her shoulders at the same time.
She looked up at from her magazine and laughing at how bad his attempt was. "Really? Is that the best you had?" he gave her an amused look and kissed her on the forehead. "Fine, I'll let it slide this time." She rolled her eyes. This attempt of his to be smooth was almost as bad as their first date when he pulled the cliche' yawn stretch to put his arm on her shoulder. She let it go that time but told him he needed to come up with something way better than that next time.
When she finally got called back, he had to stop his father from going with her and explain she preferred the to do the first half of her check up alone. His father pouted and said fine folding his arms like a little kid throwing a tantrum.
He let his thoughts wonder for a bit before his dad tapped him on the shoulder and handed him a magazine turned to a page with the title "Top ten sex positions during Pregnancy." He flipped the magazine closed and gave his father a horrified look, and he was pretty sure he was red either from embarrassment or anger. His father was laughing at his reaction and went back to reading another magazine.
The worst thing about these check ups were the horrifyingly embarrassing questions she was asked. Such as was she lactating? Is there any discharge or discomfort dealing with her girl parts? Is she sexually active? etc. All of the things she did not want to answer in the presence of anyone of the male gender.
Then the question about her symptoms and side effects were even worse. Explaining she was either hungry or sore most of the time but lately she was just constantly aroused wasn't a picnic either. Hearing she gained around ten pounds didn't exactly make her happy but the baby developing like it should and being healthy was something that mattered more.
Everyone in the room had an equally adored face when they could see her baby puckering its lips through the ultra sound. That was after her doctor and her boyfriends dad practically had a college reunion in her small exam room. *of course they know each… They're both insane* was her only thought. Her nurse speaking cut her thoughts off.
"Okay everyone… Moment of truth, you guys are having a little baby-"
Yeah… I just did that… And I feel pretty horrible about it too. The next chapter should probably be up by the time you're reading this and cussing me out for ending the chapter right there. Okay stop cursing me and read the next chapter now. :) -Chesxca
