Chapter 14
ADAM'S P.O.V
After practise, we headed to the changing rooms to obviously change. We left most of our things in our lockers, knowing we'd be heading straight for Julie's game. I was one of the first out of the changing room, and immediately noticed Connie leaning against the Plexiglas, waiting for us. She looked considerably better than she had done this morning. Without taking a really good look, you couldn't tell she was pregnant, mainly because of the baggy jeans and hockey jersey she was wearing. I headed toward her, giving her a quick kiss, before following the others toward the teams minibus that we were using to get to the game.
"So you feeling any better"? I asked her as we boarded the bus.
"Yeah. I'm just so tired all the time". She replied.
We chatted with the others for the first half of the hours journey ahead, and it was only when some of them began falling asleep that most conversations ended. I sat on the aisle seat, with Connie's legs draped over my lap.
"Goldberg, pass me some of those chips". She said suddenly.
"What chips"? He said, his mouth obviously full of something.
"The chips that you're stuffing into your mouth". Connie replied. "C'mon, I'm eating for two now". She whined.
"God, I wish I had that excuse". He hesitatingly passed his spare bag of chips back.
"Being pregnant isn't all it's cracked up to be you know". Connie argued. "I swear, by the time I've had this baby, I'll have put 5 stone on". She dug into the chips.
"But you'll soon lose it after running around after the rugrat". Russ told her.
Luckily, just before she was about to retaliate, the bus pulled up outside the school. We all filed out and headed into the rink, where we got seats right behind the team. I knew Connie felt a little weird, this was the first big game she'd been to, that she was having to sit in the stands rather than sit with the team. I knew she longed to be with them, to be diving over those boards and playing her heart out. I saw a hint of a tear enter her eye, as the team began warm ups on the ice, I gently reached for her hand and gave it a little squeeze. She turned and gave me a small half smile. Once the game had started, I think she had forgotten about wanting to be in the game, but more about what was happening.
CONNIE'S P.O.V
I had finally fully awoken, and had headed toward the rink with Julie, to meet the guys, so we could go watch Julie's game. I felt a tad emotional about the whole prospect. This was the first big game I had been to, since quitting the team. I wanted so badly to be out there with the other girls, playing to my hearts content, but now, there was no way I could join them out there. I think Adam sensed this and grabbed for my hand before giving it a little squeeze. I smiled as much as I could manage, which under the circumstances, wasn't much, but he seemed to accept this as a good sign. Before long, I was no longer thinking about wanting to be playing, but more on cheering my old team mates on. The first period was pretty simple, the puck passed hands throughout, and no goals were scored. I was well into the game now, and had forgotten all about wanting to be out on the ice. The second period was much more heated, and I was screaming at the top of my lungs, my support for the team, but so were all the ducks. By the end of the period, the score was 2 – nil in our favour. Both teams went off into the changing rooms, for a quick break. I sat with the ducks, just slowly coming down from the excitement. Adam had gone with Portman, Goldberg, Luis and Dwayne for some snacks and drinks.
"Whoa". I tensed up immediately.
"What's up Con's"? Fulton asked, sitting in the seat next to me.
"Erm, I think, the baby just kicked for the first time". I said nervously, waiting to see if the feeling happened again. By now the remaining ducks had all crowded around me, awaiting my verdict. "Yep, there it was again". I placed my hand on the side of my bump, where the 'knocking' sensation was coming from.
"Can I feel"? Charlie asked, the main doting Uncle.
"Yeah". I took hold of his hand, and placed it where the kicking was the strongest.
"How cool is that". He removed his hand after feeling.
"What's happening"? Portman asked, arriving back with the food, Adam not close behind him.
"The baby, just started kicking". I told them. Adam immediately knelt in the aisle next to me, whilst I showed him where it was kicking. He sat there in amazement, just feeling as the baby kicked a few more times.
The ducks seemed to wander off for a few minutes, to give us some 'alone time', I don't know how they figured that out, since there were about a 1000 hockey fans surrounding us. But we were still pretty grateful.
"I can't believe it". Adam finally spoke, his hand still resting on my bump.
"I know, isn't it amazing", I was only slightly aware that I was beaming with pride. He leant forward and gently kissed me.
It was at this precise second, that I realised, I couldn't be happier. Over the next 5 minutes, the baby settled down and the kicking stopped. The ducks reappeared, and we began watching the last period. Adam never let go of my hand, and I didn't want him to. When the game had been won, we ran onto the ice to celebrate with the team. I caught hold of Julie and gave her a huge hug. She was one of the only people who knew how much I wanted to be out there with her today. I stayed close to her for a few minutes, before the baby went into another kicking fit, of which it was having every 5 minutes or so. When she felt the kicking, I know I saw tears in her eyes, and they very nearly erupted down her cheeks.
On the way back to college, I fell asleep, my head lolling on Adam's shoulder, and it wasn't until he woke me, that I realised, I had slept much of the way back. I walked hand in hand with Adam back to our place, where we 'vegged' in front of the TV. After this mornings events, I felt washed of any energy, and as for Adam, I think he used most of his at practise this morning. The baby had now stopped kicking, and I surmised it had gone back to sleep.
"Adam, if it's a boy, what do you want to call it"? I asked, as I lay flat out on the sofa, my head resting in his lap.
"How about Philip Banks the second"? He chuckled gently.
"You want me to answer that"? I giggled.
"Not really". He replied.
"So"... I awaited his suggestion.
"Erm, Landon, Josh, Shane". He gave a few.
"What about for a girl"?
"Louise, Kimberly, Emma, Annie, Nicole".
"Sounds like you'd prefer a girl". I giggled a little.
"I wouldn't mind either, I just happen to prefer more girls names". He laughed.
So, what do you think they're gonna call it??? PLEASE R&R!!!!
