Our Growing Secret
Disclaimer: I do not own Johnny Test.
Ok, so first I'm going to answer a guests question that in all honesty made me chuckle.
Answer: Larger than average but not gigantic, let's go with about seven and a half.
Anyway, this is not a double update, because this is a longer chapter. Happiness! Also, my summer quarter is about halfway done, and the homework is a little lighter.
Ok, enough of me gabbing. Enjoy!
Month 2, October
It had been a week since Sissy found out she was pregnant. Johnny and Sissy had both agreed to not tell their friends until later in the pregnancy, because Sissy knew how her friends could gab and Johnny knew his friends would tease him or make it too obvious. Sissy was grateful that it was the season for heavy loose clothing, hence why she was wearing a hoodie that day. It was remarkably brisk for early October.
"So, are you guys going to the Halloween dance this year?" Zoe asked as she leaned on Zack.
"No, not this year." Sissy replied, mentally telling herself not to rub her stomach.
"And why not?" Beth asked astonished.
"Saving up for prom." Johnny chuckled, draping his arm over her shoulder. Not a complete lie, but then again, not the whole truth. It was at times like these that Johnny was even more glad that he and Sissy had over half their classes together, he could be with her and help her if she needed it and it wouldn't be too suspicious. Sissy hadn't gotten too much bigger since her doctor's appointment, and for that she was glad. The bell rang and soon they were off to Spanish class.
"Alright students, today we are going to learn about medical terms." Mister Golo said excitedly. Both Johnny and Sissy looked to each other, smirked, and listened to the teacher.
Month 3, November
Johnny walked over to Sissy's house early that morning. It was the day of her checkup and the doctor had instructed her to bring the father. As he entered the home, which showed no hostility towards him, Sissy stayed in her room, sulking.
"Johnny, could you go cheer her up. She's being pig-headed again, something she gets from her father." Sissy's mom chuckled as she looked to her husband who rolled his eyes.
"Sure Misses Blakely." Johnny said as he went upstairs and knocked on her door.
"Go away." Sissy grumbled.
"What's wrong?" Johnny asked.
"I'm fat." Sissy groaned thru the door.
"No, you're pregnant with twins. Major difference. Can I come in?" Johnny replied. Sissy opened the door. She was still in her big pajama shirt, long pants, and fluffy robe.
"You look comfortable." Johnny said walking into the room. She didn't reply.
"So what's up?" Johnny asked, somehow sensing she was unhappy.
"I don't wanna go to the doctor's." Sissy said, sitting down next to Johnny.
"Why?" Johnny asked.
"'cause then I'll have to show my belly." Sissy whined.
"Sissy, you're not even that huge yet." Johnny said.
"Don't lie." Sissy growled.
"Have I ever lied to you?" Johnny asked seriously.
"All guys say their girlfriend isn't huge when she's pregnant." Sissy said. Johnny wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close.
"Am I like all guys?" Johnny asked, kissing the crook of her neck.
"No." Sissy said.
"Look, Sissy, for you being in your first pregnancy with twins, you don't look bad. Honestly. Now can I see your belly?" Johnny asked, his hands roaming down to the bulge. Sissy sighed in defeat, she hated how he was right and that her prego brain was being irrational again. Too many hormones all at once did not help with Sissy thinking. Sissy lay down and pulled up her shirt to just below her swelling breasts, which her friends had noticed. She wasn't too much bigger, but apparently her friends had somehow noticed. Johnny leaned down and kissed the growing bulge, his hand gently rubbing it. After a few silent moments Johnny pulled her shirt back down.
"Man, if three months was bad, how in the hell are gonna six?" Sissy asked.
"Are you really gonna be in the mood while you're pregnant?" Johnny asked quirking an eyebrow.
"Tons of hormones and emotion changes, yeah more than likely." Sissy said.
"Then I'll just have to be careful with you." Johnny said, kissing her cheek.
"Huh, you really aren't like other guys. From what I've read and heard, most guys won't have sex with their pregnant girlfriend slash wife because they think it would be weird." Sissy giggled.
"You forget my family is a basket case of weird." Johnny chuckled.
"Point." Sissy giggled. Johnny rolled his eyes.
"So, I'll leave you to get dressed and then we can go to the doctor's ok?" Johnny asked.
"Ok." Sissy said. Johnny got up and left the room, standing outside the door while he waited. A few moments later Sissy exited the room with a baggy jacket on over what looked like a blue shirt and she wore yoga pants.
"Again, you look comfortable." Johnny chuckled as he took her hand.
"I need to go to the store and get some maternity clothes. Holy shit, I can't believe I said that." Sissy said. Johnny couldn't stop from laughing as they walked down to the car where Sissy's mom was waiting.
"What's got Johnny laughing?" She asked.
"Oh, he's laughing cause I said I need to go get maternity clothes." Sissy grumbled. Sissy's mother rolled her eyes as they drove to the office building.
"I'm sorry, that was just too funny." Johnny said, managing to control his laughter. They parked and soon were sitting in the office waiting for the doctor's assistant to call them back.
"Sissy." The assistant called. Sissy, Johnny and Misses Blakely all stood and walked back to the doctor's office where all the equipment was set up.
"Take a seat Sissy." The doctor said kindly.
"So this is the father?" The doctor question looking to Johnny.
"Yes." Sissy said smiling.
"What is your name?" The doctor asked Johnny kindly.
"Jonathan Test, but just call me Johnny." Johnny said smiling politely to the woman.
"What was your reaction when you found out you were going to be a father this young?" the doctor asked.
"To be honest, I panicked. It felt like the world crashed down on me, but I'm actually kind of excited and scared about it." Johnny admitted. Sissy smiled, Johnny had expressed all of these to her on the day he found out.
"Good to hear. Did you see the ultrasound pictures?" the doctor asked as she instructed Sissy to lie down and lift her shirt up over the bump.
"Yes." Johnny said smiling. The doctor spread the gel over Sissy's belly and began to move the probe around before finding one of the heartbeats.
"Yup, same spot as last time. Ok, now let's find baby B." the doctor chuckled as Johnny watched in awe. Actually hearing the heartbeat of his soon to be children was miles different than just seeing a picture. Also, actually seeing the small still oddly shaped embryo more developed and moving about also struck something inside Johnny. This was real, and it was going to happen. He now had to grow up fast – faster than he already was – to be able to support his soon to be family. The second heartbeat was just as strong and healthy as its twin, the embryo wiggled about, it's still developing legs twitching. Once the appointment was done and the pictures were printed they all left.
"That was so different." Johnny said.
"How so?" Sissy asked curiously.
"It's one thing to see the pictures and the bump. It's completely different to see them move and hear their heart beating inside you. It's just…wow." Johnny said. Sissy smiled and leaned on his shoulder before kissing his cheek. He wrapped his arm around her while rest his other hand on her stomach, gently rubbing it, feeling the flutter of movement within her. Both Johnny and Sissy smiled as they drove home.
Month 4, December
"What? You guys aren't going to the winter dance either? Ok, what's up?" Beth asked suspicious.
"We told you already, we're saving up for prom and graduation and stuff." Sissy said, rolling her eyes at her friends. Again, it was not a lie.
"You guys have been acting weird, like there's a secret you don't want us to know about and it's driving me crazy!" Zoe exclaimed, gripping her head and twitching her eye for effect.
"Have you taken your meds today Zoe?" Sissy giggled. She was wearing a large hoodie, perfectly hiding her very prominent baby bump.
"Yes!" Zoe exclaimed.
"She does have a point though. You and Johnny have been odd lately." Renee said eying Sissy suspiciously.
"You guys worry too much." Sissy said, waving it off as they walked to their classes.
"Ok dude, what's up?" Robby said suddenly.
"What are you talkin about?" Johnny asked honestly.
"What aren't ya tellin us?" Jace said.
"I still have no clue what you mean." Johnny replied.
"Oh for the love of…what aren't you or Sissy telling us? You two have been acting weird recently and it's bugging us!" Chad said annoyed.
"Oh. Nothing's up." Johnny said, though hating to lie to his friends, he knew how they could get out of hand, hence why they were his friends.
"That's a crock of shit!" Bo exclaimed.
"Really guys, there's nothing going on." Johnny said.
"Zoe just texted me and said you and Sissy weren't going to the winter dance this year." Zack said.
"Dude, my hours at work have been crazy, and we want to save up for graduation, prom, we plan to get our own place after high school." Johnny said honestly.
"Ok, but there's something different about Sissy." Mark said.
"How so?" Johnny asked, letting some of his defensiveness kick in, giving him a glare.
"She carries herself differently. In an odd way, one would say she has a glow to her. Or an air about her that just gives off a new attitude and light." Mark said. Johnny froze for just a moment.
"Yeah, I've noticed that too." Chad said.
"Look, there's nothing going on." Johnny said in a serious tone.
"So why don't you guys come to the winter dance then so we can all hang out bro?" Jace asked.
"Sissy doesn't want to. Work's been hell, with me getting a promotion and the two newbies being total pains in the neck. We want to spend tonight that we have off just hanging out and relaxing." Johnny said. His friends smirked devilishly.
"Oh, ok we get it. Have fun 'relaxing'." Chad chuckled. Johnny chuckled, knowing his friends took it the wrong way, but knew that they weren't completely wrong. Not tonight though, Sissy made that clear. Just a movie night and then bed, that's all she wanted and Johnny would happily oblige and take that. As long as his pregnant, beautiful, girlfriend was happy, he was happy.
Later that night
Sissy lay snuggled into Johnny's arms as they curled up together on his bed. She was in her pajamas as she planned on staying the night and was quite comfortable. Her belly was huge and firm was the twins, and Johnny's hand rested firmly on it, subconsciously rubbing it. The doorbell rang and Johnny got up to go answer it. Sissy grabbed her robe and covered herself. Johnny opened the door to his and Sissy's friends, still in their dance clothes.
"Hey buddy, sorry if we disturbed anything." Jace snickered. Johnny rolled his eyes and allowed them in.
"So where's Sissy?" Zoe asked.
"Upstairs in my room." Johnny said as he closed the door.
"Did we disturb something?" Beth giggled.
"Other than the movie we were watching, no." Johnny replied as he stretched.
"I sometimes forget you have tattoos." Renee snickered.
"Me too. I'll go get Sissy." Johnny chuckled as he walked up the stairs to his room.
"Babe, our friends are here." Johnny said.
"Ok, uh, how are we gonna cover this?" Sissy whispered, pointing to her swollen stomach.
"Lay down, close your eyes, and breathe slowly. Pretend you're asleep." Johnny whispered back.
"Right." Sissy said as she lay down and got comfortable.
"Sorry guys, Sissy crashed. She was kind of nodding off during the movie." Johnny said.
"Well, it is eleven. Wait, where are your parents and siblings?" Cally asked.
"Mom and dad should be back soon, and my sisters moved in with their fiancés'." Johnny said.
"Oh, I was wondering why it was so quiet." Chad laughed.
"Yeah, it's kind of weird being the only kid in the house." Johnny chuckled.
"Yeah, but both you and Sissy will be eighteen by the time we graduate." Robby chuckled.
"Yup." Johnny said. And we'll also be parents of twins by then too. Johnny thought.
"Anyway, we better go, don't want to wake up Sissy, cause if the woman isn't happy, no one is happy." Bo chuckled earning a prompt elbow to the ribs from Beth.
"Yeah. Nice seeing you." Johnny said as they left before he turned around and went up to his room.
"There's something up and they're not telling us." Beth said.
"Yeah, that much is obvious. I doubt Sissy was asleep." Bo said.
"But if that's the case, then why wouldn't she want to see us?" Zoe asked.
"If we knew, we wouldn't be having the conversation right now." Beth replied annoyed.
"Look, if they don't want to tell us about it, whatever it is, yet then they don't want to tell us. We should stop bugging them. They'll tell us when they're ready." Cally said.
"What if their engaged?" Tia giggled.
"What if Sissy's pregnant?" Trisha giggled.
"Please if Sissy was pregnant, wouldn't she have told us by now, or wouldn't we have noticed?" Leslie said.
"Point, she doesn't even look pregnant." Beth said.
"Yeah Trisha, you're crazy." Cally replied.
Month 5, January
Sissy was almost to the point to where she could no longer hide the ever growing baby bump, but since it was still cold outside she could, but only barely. Sissy was also having trouble disguising the pregnant waddle, but luckily no one had noticed yet. As she and Johnny met up after their last class of the day her stomach began to growl.
"Let me guess, cravings?" Johnny chuckled as he started up the car. It was maybe once a week that Sissy would get the oddest cravings.
"Shut up." Sissy hissed.
"Let's go to my house." Johnny said.
"Yeah, your mom always stocks up on food. We can also start our homework while I snack." Sissy giggled.
"Yes dear." Johnny chuckled, earning a soft thwack on the arm.
15 minutes later
Johnny looked up at Sissy and shuddered at what she was eating. Chocolate ice-cream with mustard and barbeque sauce and a slice of grapefruit.
"Just when I think I have your cravings figured out, this happens." Johnny grumbled to the happily munching Sissy who giggled. Johnny rolled his eyes and looked back to his math homework, solving the answers easily and eventually finishing all the questions with plenty of time to spare. Sissy had long since finished her homework, didn't matter that Johnny technically had a higher IQ, he got bored or distracted easily and procrastinated an hour or two before actually finished his homework, hence Sissy was always done before him. Johnny rested his head on Sissy's knee, tired from school. After Sissy wiped her mouth of her now finished bowl of her snack she placed the bowl on the nightstand, leaned down and kissed Johnny's cheek. Johnny smiled and looked up to her before sitting up and kissing her lips. Hmm…it doesn't taste as bad as it looked. Johnny thought as they kissed sweetly.
So, tell me what you think. I am so proud that I finally wrote a long enough chapter to warrant a single update today. See you all next Friday. R&R please and thank you!
