Hullo my dearies! Missed me? Don't worry it's only been a month or so, unlike my previous update...awkward...
And before I forget, I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and has a Happy New Year!
Anyways, this chapter does have some adult language in it, but it's not too bad. It's also 3,000+ words, so RESPECT. Well, all matters aside:
READ ON!
"LIEBLINGS! WAKE UP!" Granny Relda calls from downstairs.
I groan and roll over, gasping a little when I feel my little girl kick.
Today is the first day of school. That's right, school. Every pregnant teen's nightmare. I carressed my big stomach. I was scared. What would people say? I would be the school slut, no doubt.
I had gotten considerably popular in the past few years, working up my reputation. Of course, I'm not A-list popular, but I'm popular enough that almost everyone at least knows my name. The school isn't run by nutshells anymore, and it's not full of only everafters anymore. It has lots of human children too, so it felt like a normal high-school.
The bed creaked under me as I stepped onto the shaggy biege carpet, and I shuffled towards the door in my sweats and an old shirt of Puck's. He had given me all his old shirts for lounging in, since they were basically the only thing that was comfortable for me.
I grab a pretty pink tank-top and some dark maternity jeans on my way to the bathroom and I wrench my door open angrily, grumpy about having to go to school. I stomp down the hall, making each step hard and heavy, hoping Granny Relda hears it. Uncle Jake chuckles at my antics, and I growl under my breath.
Once in the bathroom, I pull of Puck's ratty old t-shirt.I stand topless in front of the full body mirror and I caress my big soccer-ball of a stomach, then pull on my tank top. This will be a longgg day.
I finish wolfing down my last whipped-cream covered olive, then gulp down my brussel sprout and strawberry smoothie. Weirdo cravings.
"PUCKKKK!" I screech,"GET DOWN HERE!". I grab my backpack and keys, then pull my hair up as I wait for fairy-boy to show up.
He appears in front of me breathless. His eyes are wide, and his hair's disheveled.
"What? What's wrong? Baby's coming?" He paused after each word, trying to catch his breath.
"Naw, it's just time for school." I replied breezily.
He glares at me, and I stuck out my green-red tounge at him. He made a disgusted face, then pulled me outside.
We walk onto the grass, then he turns me around so I'm not facing him.
"Wait, what are you doi-!" I stutter, as he grabs my hands and lifts me into the air.
"Geez fattie, lose some weight." He grunts. I smile, thinking he will put my fragile body back down, but he laughs.
"Just kidding! You're as light as a feather. Now stop stalling. It's school time!"
I feel him lurch forward and my stomach lurches with him. I fight to keep the vomit down as we fly over tall buildings, but I don't succeed.
"Gross, Brina! Right on City Hall," He laughs gently, looking down quickly to smile at me. I blush, and look away. Damn hormones.
Finally we reach school grounds, and he flies us to the back of the building to land so clueless humans won't see us flying.
He gently sets me on the ground then swivels me around to face him. He looks into my eyes and I can't stop the heat from rising in my cheeks. He was so close, I could smell the forest on him.
" Listen to me, Sabrina. I know you're nervous. I know you're scared. I know you're embarrassed. But so am I, so you're not alone." He gives me a lopsided smile as his hair flops into his eyes. I don't think I'v ever seen anything cuter.
My heart beat rapidly in my chest, and I ached to meet his lips. My mind tells me to snap out of it. Just this once, I turn my mind off, and I stretch on my tippy-toes to meet his lips. Just a few more inches, almost there-
BRINNNGGGGGGGG!
The bell makes me jump, regaining my sense. My eyes widen, and I jump a foot away from him. He sighs and looks down, and for a moment I feel guilty. But then he looks up, smiles, hugs me, and is rushing off to class before I can say anything.
"See ya next class," he calls over his shoulder as he runs towards the doors.
"Yea, uh, bye," I call back, but he has already disappeared.
I sigh dramatically, the begin waddling toward the doors.
I re-read my schedule, scanning it again and again. I'm standing outside the classroom door, debating whether to walk in or run away. Finally, I take a giant gulp of air and swiftly head into the room.
The door slams shut loudly behind me, and most of the kids look up curiously. I see their mouths drop, and they start exchanging glances with each other. I nervously tug on on my white jacket, trying my best to make the bump look smaller. One kid whistles, and that catches the teacher's attention. She looks at me and lowers her eyes to my stomach. I see the furrow in her brow increase.
"Umm, hi-i, I'm Sabrina Grimm. I'm kinda late, so where should I sit-t-t?"" I stammer nervously, feeling stupid and bulky. She stops staring and smiles.
"Hello Sabrina Grimm, I have a vacant seat over by the windows." She was smiling, but it was too cheery to be genuine.
I plop my books down on the desk, then after a moment of tracing cicrles with my finger on my stomach, I look around. People had been staring at me, but when I caught their eyes they quickly looked away.
Finally, I see my good friend, Layla, staring at me. We weren't best friends, I was to unsocialable for that, but she was the best thing I have here besides Puck. I had told her about sleeping with Puck, but I hadn't told her...this.
I watch as she wads up a piece of paper she had been writing on and throws it at me. It lands on the ground next to me and I pick it up.
What happened to you?
I grope for a pencil in my backpack and quickly scribble a response.
Isn't it obvious? Are we still friends?
I roll it across the floor back to her, since my aim isn't that great.
Totally! I was just...shocked.
I smile at her and she smiles back.
You're great :)
She picks it up and reads it. Then she gets a weird look on her face. It looked like...excitement? She scribbles something furiously on the paper.
And Puck's the daddy? Awww! Cute!
I theaterically slap my hand to my head in frustration and I see her giggle.
No, not "cute". That retard got me pregnant.
I manage to toss the note back to her right as the teacher claps her hands for our attention.
I self-consciously walk through the white hall, trying to keep a smile on my face. People stare, whisper, laugh, and point.
"They might not be talking about you," Layla says, reading my thoughts.
"Pshh, yea right!" I poke her lightly on the arm and we get into a poking war.
"Well, hello ladies. You seem awfully giddy. What's the big occasion?" Puck says as he meets us in the middle of the hallway. We laugh, and he kneels down by my tummy. "Hey, my little girl! Can you kick for me?"
"Not nooow, Puck!" I hiss through my teeth, but it was too late. Everyone had heard.
Did you hear that? Puck's the dad!
Omg, she is so lucky to be with him!
She f***** him?
Aww, that's cute!
Oi, nice work Puck! Wanna give me some pointers?
"Puck, why'd you do that? Now everyone knows!" I ask him quietly, but furiously.
Puck beams at me. "Oh, I think they already knew you were pregnant, sweetheart."
"Good morning students! I am your math teacher, Mrs. Gigi. I can't wait to learn about you all!" She chirped, her voice very high and ear-shattering. Usaully she would've annoyed the heck out of me, but she seems sincerely nice and I like her.
Puck's knee hit mine accidently under the table, and I look over at him. We've chosen spots next to each other in every single class we have together, and I have to admit that I think it's sweet of him to give up sitting with his friends to sit with me. He catches me looking at him and flashes a smile. I smile back in return, then begin drawing on my arm.
"Now, each pair of table partners will come up to introduce themselves and tell why they sat by each other, even if they don't know each other. Okay? Now, you two up first and we'll go in a circle," She said excitedly.
Oh noo...
Finally, she reaches our table. Most people sitting by each other were best friends or boyfriend and girlfriend. I sigh for the thousandth time today, then shuffle to the front of the room with Puck behind me.
"Hi, I'm Sabrina Grimm." I say, trying to sound confident.
"And I am, uh, Puck Goodfellow." He swallows loudly.
"We sat together because..." I look at Puck to finish the sentence, before realizing it was a horrible mistake.
"Because I'm the father of her child," He spoke quickly.
It's Lamaze classes all over again! When will this boy learn?
The teacher and kids gasp then some laugh, others whisper, and some simply sit there.
"Thank you, Sabrina and Puck. Next table!" She seems to recover, and claps her hands to get the class to stop talking.
I sigh for the thousandth-and-one time today as Layla and I sit down at the two-person table together in our last period, science.
"You okay, Brina? You look..sad." She looks at me with concern.
"Yea, I'm fine. Just tired. And hungry." I cough, then turn to face the teacher.
Layla eyes me curiously for a second, then sifts through her backpack for something. My face lights up when she pulls out a Zip-lock bag of Oreo's. She shoves them into my hand under the table and I secretly gobble them up.
I was finishing devouring the last cookie when I heard my name.
"Sabrina Grimm, do you know the answer?" I heard the screechy voice of my teacher, Mrs. Gribs.
I use my sleeve to wipe the black crumbs off my lips and swallow the rest of my Oreo. I hadn't been paying attention at all. I look nervously around the room for some type of hint.
I was about to tell her I had no clue, when I heard a voice talk for me.
"I..don't really know." I admitted defeatedly. The class laughs at me.
"Well Ms. Grimm, next time I expect you to be paying attention in my class rather than stuffing your face full of cookies! Despicable!" Mrs. Gribs scolds rudely, pointing on another kid for the answer.
I slump down in my chair, my cheeks flaming, and I feel like crying for the remainder of class. It's a silly thing to cry about, but my hormones were to blame. Damn hormones.
Finally, after what seemed like hours, the bell lets out a shrill ring and the class jumps up and rushes out the door. I struggle with my books and my bag, trying to shove the supplies into my backpack and squeeze my way out of the chair at the same time. I hear Puck laughing and calling to his friends as they walk past the classroom. I curse Puck under my breath for not waiting for me as I finally pop out of my seat.
I quickly jog out into the hallway and see that most of the school is already outside in front of the school, hopping in cars, lingering around the front steps to talk to friends, riding away on bikes and skateboards. I scan the crowd for Puck, holding back tears as a group of boys throws chips at me.
I spot Puck across the parking lot, jumping into a big van with his buddies. I let out a huge huff and stomp down the front steps, marching towards the van. I swerve out of the way of cars as I walk as fast as I could manage to the white van that is pulling out.
The van is cruising slowly in a long line of traffic when I reach it and I began banging on the window, screaming for Puck to bring me home. As I pound on the passenger's window, the rear door slides open and Puck leaps out, glaring at me. I bite my lip to keep from crying out.
"What is it now, Sabrina?" He hisses rudely. I feel my eye let out a tear, and his face immediately softens. I take no pity though.
"How am I supposed to get home if you go out with your STUPID FRIENDS! You're supposed to take care of me and help me, not go off and party while I sit here alone at school with a SHITTY BABY IN MY STOMACH!" I yell, breathing heavily. I know I shouldn't be so mean, but this hasn't been the best day for me.
"You could just walk home, couldn't you?" He mutters. I blow up.
"WALK HOME? YOU WANT ME,TO WALK, ALL THE WAY HOME? ALONE? DO YOU NOT REALIZE I AM 7 AND A HALF MONTHS PREGNANT WITH YOUR BABY AND THAT HALF THE SCHOOL AND TOWN HATES ME? I COULD BE KIDNAPPED! AND IT'S A 7 MILE WALK!" I'm blowing steam out of my ears.
"Look, Sabrina! You can't control me! I can do whatever I want! Go home!" He gives me a pissed off look. I breath deeply and try calming down a bit.
"Puck-just take me home. Now." I say through gritted teeth, humiliated. I know I have him sold. He begins walking towards me, about to wrap his arm around me and fly me home. I hear the passenger door slam shut and thudding footsteps come up behind me.
It's one of PUck's idiot friends, Ronaldo. He grabs me by my arm and spins me around to face him.
"Now listen, sweetheart. We're all going to the party at Kailee's house and Puck is gonna come with us. Got it, babe?" He smiles a nasty smile at me and I grimace as I try to pull my arm away.
"You can't tell me what to do, dickface." I smirk as all Puck's friends "oohed" from inside the van.
Ronaldo gives me a look, then roughly grabs Puck's shoulder and grunts as he leads him back to the van.
I lung towards Puck and pull him back towards my direction.
Ronaldo whrills around and gives me a shove. I yelp and fall on the asphalt. The majority of the school is watching by now, and they all let out a cheering noise as I fall.
"Hey man, don't touch her!" Puck threatens, pushing Ronaldo back away from me. I try sitting up, but fail due to my swollen stomach, so I scoot to one side instead.
"Did you just push me, Goodfellow?" Ronaldo growls menacingly.
"Maybe.." Puck replies angrily. With a big heave, I manage to get myself off of the ground.
I run up and try to push the two boys apart quickly, but I end up letting out a shriek as Ronaldo's hand hits my face.
I hear a yell and Puck lunges on top of Ronaldo, knocking both of them to the ground.
The school is screaming and crying out and yelling excitedly as the boys roll around in the parking lot. Puck punches Ronaldo in the nose and Ronaldo kicks him in the shin.
"Stop it, stop IT!" I cry, but nobody seems to hear me.
Puck and Ron brawl on the black ground and I try to get them to stop, but it's not working. I feel dizzy and nauesous from the jeering crowd and the hit on my head, so I don't know who's winning.
After a while of sitting on the ground, sobbing, and dodging fists and legs, I hear a satisfying crack and the crowd goes wild. There is laughing and I hear the coughing and wheezing of the two fighters.
"Puck, Puck!" I moan, trying to see out of my blurry eyes, thinking I might have a concussion. I hear footsteps and a dark figure leans over me.
"Looks like the prince couldn't save his princess, eh?" Ronaldo's voice is slightly slurred and I see blood on his clothes.
Ron gives me a good kick in the stomach and I fall over onto my back, gasping. I hear the schreeching of tires and faintly see the white van speed away. I lay on the ground for what seemslike hours, listening as the crowd dies away. Soon enough, Puck and I are the only ones left in the parking lot.
My head is throbbing and my stomach feels achey. My stomach..oh no!
"The baby, the baby is hurt!" I yell hoarsely, "Somebody, please, help me! My baby..."
I hear rapid footsteps and see a blurry red-headed figure lean over me.
"Sabrina, Sabrina? Todd, call 911!" a female voice calls. I try focusing my eyes.
"Layla?" I croak. She lets out a little gasp and kneels in front of me.
"Puck, where's Puck, the baby, it hurts, please help the baby, Puck is hurt, call Granny..." I mumbled. I hear Layla give a shout and she quickly runs around me.
"Layla, don't leave.." But I was cut off by her shouts.
" Puck! PUCK! Hello? Can you hear me? If you can hear me, squeeze my hand! Oh goody, you're alright. The ambulance will be here soon, but they have to come from outside of Ferryport Landing, so it might take a while," I hear her saying reassuringly to Puck. Todd, Layla's freshmen brother, comes over to me and takes my hand, rubbing soothing circles on my knuckles.
The last thing I remember hearing is sirens, and the last thing I think about is that Ferryport Landing should get their own hospital, before everything fades to black.
THE END OF PART 1
THIS CHAPTER IS SPLIT IN TWO PARTS, SO THE NEXT CHAPTER WILL BE A FOLLOW-UP TO THIS ONE.
Dramatic? Duh.
OOC? Slightly.
Cliffhanger? Hells yeah.
So what'd ya'll think? Pretty good, eh? REVIEW.
Also, just a note on the last chapter, even though Scarlett is winning in the poll, I've decided that that won't be her name because of two reasons:
One being that Scarlet (the color) is a shade of red and that'd be like Red (the person) naming the baby after herself.
Two being because the ScarletHand captured Sabrina's parents and basically ruined her life, so why would Sabrina name her baby after the group that terrorized her?
Thanks for reading and review please!
