Ch. 20

I walked downstairs and saw Diamond. My heart sped up. She looked up and smiled at me. "Morning Amy," she said. I smiled back. I walked up to her and she grabbed me into a hug. I got nervous and scared. Sonic and I didn't exactly know how to tell Diamond so we haven't told her. She pulled away and looked at my stomach which was bulging out a little. "Whoa girl, putting on some pounds," she asked. I put my hands on my stomach.

"Yea I know, I need to exercise more," I replied. She pushed on my stomach and grimaced.

"It's hard, that's weird."

"I know it's been acting weird lately."

"I see. Does Sonic know about your stomach?"

"What about it?"

"Oh I don't know that you're carrying his child."

"Oh he knows that- Wait how did you find out?"

"Motherly instincts. You guys have been sneaking around, blushing constantly, and you've been acting differently too."

"Are you mad?"

"A little disappointed that you guys didn't tell me the second you guys found out, but not mad."

"We're really sorry that we kept it a secret."

"It's okay; I was a teen once too. Some things you don't want parents to know, so you keep it to yourselves. I understand."

"You seem so calm about this. Aren't you going to kill me?"

"Not you. Sonic, I might kill, but not you."

"Oh it was my idea in the first place and he had no part in the mastermind."

"I was joking about killing you guys."

"Oh, sorry."

"I know you're very cautious with this."

"Yea, I just don't want the secret getting out so soon."

"I understand that. Don't want the wrong people finding out, right?"

"Yea, exactly." Diamond smiled.

"I'm glad that you're the one having Sonic's child and not some other nut. I'm glad he found you."

"Me too." Sonic came into the living room and immediately went to my side.

"Hey," he said, planting a kiss on my cheek.

"Hi," I said, blushing.

"So Sonic, what's the baby's name," Diamond asked.

"Um we're not sure yet but- Wait what," he asked, suddenly confused. Diamond smiled.

"Ah young people, so trickable," she said before going out the room. Sonic looked back at me. I smiled and sat on the couch. I sat down next to me and put me on his lap.

"You told her," he asked.

"She knew already and was just confirming if it was true."

"Oh. What are we going to name the baby?"

"I like the name Melanie or Kierra for the girl. The name Daniel or Jared for a boy. You have any ideas?"

"Not really, but I do like the names you suggested."

"You do?"

"Yea, they're good."

"Which ones do you like best?"

"I don't know. I like Melanie because it's sweet like you. And I like Jared because it has a nice kick to it."

"Okay then we have our boy and girl names."

"When are you going to the doctor's?"

"I don't know, soon I guess."

"You're scared?"

"Yea and nervous."

"Oh."

"I'll get over it though. I've been pregnant for five months now, I think I'm ready."

"Good. How's homeschooling going?"

"Boring, but that's just how things have to work. I don't want to risk Scourge seeing me like this."

"You're right, but he's its uncle. We're going to have to tell him at some point."

"Ha, when the world stops spinning maybe."

"How about I try to get him to change?"

"Have fun with that, baby." He chuckled.

"I'll try."

(Four months later)

I awoke in the hospital bed and felt pain shoot through my body. I knew giving birth hurt, but I never expected it to hurt this much. I felt something holding my hand. I looked over and saw Sonic sitting in a chair next to the bed, squeezing my hand. I smiled at him. His eyes filled with relief. "Hey baby, how are you feeling," he asked.

"I hurt and I'm tired," I whispered. He put his hand on my forehead.

"You're a little warm," he said before pulling his hand away.

"Am I sick?"

"No, I think you're blood temperature might be increasing from the amount of energy you used. You almost died in case you were wondering."

"But I'm okay now, see?"

"I know, but I thought I lost you for a few minutes."

"I told you that you wouldn't lose me." He smiled and stroked my cheek. "How many did we have?"

"Three."

"Three?"

"Yup. Two boys and a girl."

"The boys are twins?"

"Yea."

"Oh, did I get my tubes tied?"

"Yea, I think three is enough for us." I smiled.

"Yea me too."

"So, we're out of high school. College now?"

"Yea, that sounds great."

"Cool, cuz I already mailed our applications and got us a house."

"Really no way."

"Way, babe." I laughed lightly.

"So, I guess high school wasn't so bad after all huh?"

"Nope. We both found true love and found ourselves, isn't that what high school gives a step to?"

"Yes. I love you Sonic."

"Love you too Ames."

That's the end of this story and yes there will be a sequel! It's gonna be called "College and Family Blues" so look out for it sometime soon. Sorry i didn't give much detail on the birth but i don't know much about it so it was kinda hard. Anyway...PLEASE REVIEW!
