Chapter 26: Movement

Bay hated this more then normal school. It was not fun having to sit in front of a computer, but they all agreed it was the best way for her to catch up and finish high school. The plan was for her to have it all done before the baby came. Bay was actually happy that she was going to finish high school but this way did suck. At least she could speed through the subjects she was good at.

So like she had done everyday this past week after breakfast Bay yawned as she sat at her computer. She was going to start with Math. It was her least favorite and found if she didn't do it first thing then she would barley get through it. So she sat with her least favorite subject and was about half way through it when she felt it.

Her hand went instantly to her stomach. Was this normal? She had felt little flutters before but this was more. Bay jumped up and ran down stairs. What if this wasn't normal? She couldn't possibly be feeling the baby yet. She was way to early.

Bay found Kathryn in the kitchen cleaning up breakfast dishes. Kathryn looked at Bay as she entered and noticed the alarm on her face. She stopped what she was doing. "Is something wrong?" She asked Bay.

"I don't know. I think something might me wrong with the baby." Kathryn's brows pulled together and went to Bay placing her had on Bay's stomach. She smiled at Bay and shook her head.

"Oh sweetie there is nothing wrong. Your baby is just moving." She said. Kathryn couldn't help the tears that came to her eyes. That was her grand baby in there.

"Really? Already?" Bay asked surprised. She really had no idea about this pregnancy stuff.

"Yeah you are almost four months. "You will just feel more and more from here. Wait until the baby gets hiccups." Bay went wide eyed. The look was so innocent it made Kathryn giggle.

"They can have hiccups in there?" It was more of a statement. Bay shook her head in amazement.

"We will have to take you shopping soon for new clothes." Kathryn said looking Bay over. She was getting bigger and will get much bigger before this was all over.

Bay nodded. She could not fit in her jeans. Most of her skirts and she only had two sweat pants that she could fit in. She also has three of Emmett's shirts because only two of hers fits. This was the annoying part about being pregnant. Well after the morning sickness, but that seemed to happen less and less.

Bay dragged herself back upstairs and started back on her school work. She had to work hard to concentrate. Her mind kept wanting to drift of as she thought about things she never thought about. What will the baby look like? Will it be a boy or girl? Who will they be? What kind of things will it like? Would the baby be deaf? Will her and Emmett be good parents? Bay shook her head. These are things only time will tell so for now she had to get back to her math.

Bay rolled her eyes as Emmett picture bombed her. She usually gave him a few smiles but then after a while she is done. Emmett would smile at her annoyance. Emmett insisted on getting pictures every time we saw each other which was mostly everyday. He also insisted on side shots once a week. This was times when Emmett seemed so blissfully happy Bay could feel it radiating off of him.

Once he was finished Bay took his camera and snapped a few pictures of him. He gave her a few smiles then some funny faces. Bay smiled so full of love. She laughed and Emmett took his camera from her and took her hand. She got a huge smile on her face and put her hand to her stomach.

Emmett gave her a confused look. Bay took his hand and placed it where her hand was. She had been waiting to show Emmett since the day before. After a few seconds the baby moved. Bay watched Emmett's face. It went from shock to happy. So happy that he teared up.

Emmett couldn't believe what he just felt. The baby. He could feel the baby. He was shocked at first then happiness came. His emotions changed and he suddenly felt so Happy so blessed and so full of love he was sure he would explode with it. He looked up at Bay who had a huge smile on her face. Barley able contain himself he hugged Bay close, then planted a kiss on her lips. They both stood there with big smiles on their faces.

"Kathryn can I talk to you?"Daphne asked as she walked into the kitchen with Regina fallowing close behind, and Noah at her side.

Kathryn nodded then looked to Regina who shrugged. She had no idea what was going on. "Yeah of course sweetie."

Regina went and stood next to Kathryn and after Daphne and Noah shared a look Daphne started. "We have thought a lot about this."Daphne said pointing between her and Noah. "We think we are going to put the baby up for adoption."Daphne stopped to let it sink in.

Both Kathryn and Regina looked shocked. Neither new what to say. Kathryn wanted to argue. She wanted to tell Daphne that she can't. That this baby was her responsibility. However she also new that this was not her choice. It made her sad to think she will have a grandchild she will never know.

"I don't think so." Regina said in a tone that shocked Kathryn. "You think we want a grandchild running around in the world that we will never know?"

"You guy's still have Bay's baby. And besides this is not your choice it's ours." Daphne said defensively. "You don't have a say."

Regina looked hurt and she was going to fight on but Kathryn shook her head. "She is right. This is not for us to decide."

"So you are okay with your grandchild never knowing you?" Regina snapped. This was not what she wanted. She didn't want Daphne a teen mom either, but this was just so unexpected.

"No of course not but the baby is not ours it's theirs and if they feel this is best." Kathryn said. She was trying to convince herself of this as well.

"They are children how can they know whats best?" Regina said. At this point Daphne an Noah walked away.

"We have to trust that Daphne knows what she can and can't handle. I don't like it either Regina but if we force them to keep it then she will hate us."

"She might thank us. She is going to always wonder who she gave birth to. She will look at other kids who are about the same age and wonder if that is what her child is like. She will regret it." Regina said a little more calm.

"Regina we can't make her. We can talk to her and try to push her in the right direction, but at the end of they day we will have to hold her hand and support her decision. Even if we don't like it."

Regina sighed. She wish she could say it. To tell Kathryn why she knew this was a bad idea. But she was worried that she wouldn't understand. She didn't want everyone mad at her again What was she supposed to. Regina shook her head. "Okay then I will try to push her in the right direction. But I am telling you Daphne giving up this baby is a huge mistake." Regina walked away. She had to find a way to convince Daphne that adoption is painful.

Kathryn looked after Regina confused. Kathryn was unsure as to how Regina could possibly know that it would be a mistake, but she was not sure she actually wants to know. She hopped that Regina could talk Daphne into keeping the baby. She was getting used to the idea of having two little babies running around. She sighed. She will stand by what she said. If Daphne decides to do this she will stand by her side.

Bay was at Emmett's. Melody had just informed them that dinner was ready. Bay fallowed Emmett down. She always found dinner here interesting. It really put her ASL to the test. She was happy to report that she was getting better. Emmett and Melody were laughing over an inside joke Bay didn't really get, but she smiled anyway.

"You are going to fall out of your clothes soon."Melody said to Bay changing the subject. She had noticed Bay was wearing Emmett's shirt and even that was getting tight.

Bay smiled. It was cool that her and Melody seemed to be getting closer. Thinking about the beginning when Melody was not a Bay fan almost made Bay want to laugh. Mostly at the time she signed 'hang out' wrong. That was embarrassing.

"Yeah my mom said something yesterday. I think we are going to go get new clothes soon."Bay said then took a bite of dinner. It was really good. It was some kind of casserole dish. It had a fancy name Bay couldn't remember.

"Well I would assume Daphne is in the same boat. It's going to be fun you to get to raise your kids together. I just can't believe it." Melody said like a gloating mother. Emmett frowned. He had not told her Daphne's plans. Bay looked uncomfortable.

Melody looked between the two confused. "What? did I say something wrong?"She thought about what she said. Nothing was offensive.

"Daphne plans on giving the baby up for adoption."Emmett answered after a few seconds. Melody looked shocked and even more confused.

"Does Regina know?"Both shook their heads and shrugged.

"Does that make a difference?" Emmett asked. He had a feeling she wasn't telling them something.

"No I just know that...I think Daphne will changer her mind. Regina wont be happy with that decision. Regina will be able to give her insight." Melody stopped. She looked at their confused faces and hopped she didn't say to much. This was something that need to stay hidden. There was no reason to turn worlds upside down again.

Bay smiled and looked at Melody. The baby was moving again. "You want to feel the baby move?"She asked Melody.

Melody smiled. She would do anything to get off the topic of Regina. She nodded and both of them stood. It was amazing to feel the baby move. Emmett's baby and her grand baby. She smiled huge and Emmett smiled along with her. They were a family. He smiled at this. They all could be a family. Bay's family and his family can be one. Just one big happy family.
