Little
things change so much Part 27:
Grandparents,
I guess
--------------------
"Andy!
There you are! Finally! I was worried! "
Andy smiled at his
mom
"I was just at the manor, mom, and I told you I was going
there"
"But that long?"
"Where's dad? I wanna explain
to both of you why I'm that late"
"He's in his office and
quite mad"
"I get him... can you go already to living and wait
there for us?"
Andy asked and then left his mom, going for his
dad
"Dad?"
He asked sticking his head into his dad's
office
"Andy! Where the hell were you so long? Your mother was
scared about you!"
"Sorry. Dad... can I talk to you and mom
for a sec... in living, please?"
"Sure"
Richard said and
got up. Richard and Andy went to the living. Richard taking a seat
next to his wife.
"Now what's wrong, son?"
"I... um...
gotta tell you two some things... but... please don't freak right
away... please wait till I say, I'm done... before you say
anything, please"
"Okay"
Julia said nodding. Richard
nodded as well
"Okay... hum..."
Andy stood in front of his
parents, not knowing where to start
"when you two were on
vacation, Prue was here... we were... kissing and making out... she
wanted to go home... but I begged her to stay... we... umm... slept
with each other... with... without protection... and... don't explode
now cause there's more... Prue wasn't really ill a little while
ago. She was just having some morning sickness. She's pregnant and...
I'm gonna be a dad. I know this is much... but... Prue and I don't
wanna kill the baby, because it's not his or her fault, that he or
she exists... what leads me to the reason why I come home late and
also won't go to school tomorrow. Penny freaked at us, wanting Prue
to abort the baby and when Prue and me said no, she freaked even
more. Prue cared ever since for everything at the manor and she
didn't sleep much, cause she always wakes early to throw up... she
was completely washed out and fainted earlier... I had to stay and
make sure, that she and the baby were okay. I made her rest and
helped Piper and Phoebe with cooking and tidying and homework and
all. Prue just needs a time out.... And I wanna be there and care for
her tomorrow.... And even thought, I hope, you understand me... I'm
now done and you can yell at me..."
Andy finished and looked at
his parents waiting for a reaction. His parents were kind of shocked
about everything Andy told them a few minutes ago. But on the other
hand they were amazed on how adult their son acted; Richard looked at
Julia, who nodded
"I'm proud on you, son"
"Me
too"
Julia said
"Not about getting Prue pregnant! Just so
you know and we will still have a little chat about that tomorrow,
but I'm proud on you, for taking care for Prue and the baby. For
taking responsibility for the child. And for being that mature, that
you don't just kill the baby to correct your mistakes. I'm proud on
you for taking care for Piper and Phoebe and helping out at the
manor, even thought, as good as I know Penny, she probably threw you
out of the house right away."
Richard told him. Andy just
starred shocked at his parents. This reaction he didn't
expect.
"Who are you and what did you do to my parents?"
He
asked. Julia smiled a little and got up... hugging her son
"You
better ask... in what did you transform us?"
Richard asked
smiling
"Grandparents, I guess"
Andy said laughing, and
then pushed his mom a little off, getting the picture of the baby out
of his pocket to show it to his parents
"Then you knew already,
Prue was pregnant on the prom?"
Julia asked
"Yeah. And we
nearly didn't go, because I didn't want Prue to be even more
stressed. But she wanted to go and so we did."
"Why didn't
you tell us something before?"
Richard asked
"I... I
seriously don't know. We wanted to tell it to you both together. And,
after Penny reacted that hard on it after we told her, I guess we
just wanted to find the right time. And, since I wanted Prue to sleep
now, I decided to tell you on my own."
"How far along is Prue
now?"
"Late 3rd month to early 4th
month. The doc said, she can't recognize it that clearly in this
stage."
He told them, repeating what the doctor had told them
the last time they were there
"You were with Prue at the
doctor's?"
Julia asked surprised
"Yeah... wanted to hear
the heartbeat. Prue was always completely thrilled when she was at
appointment and telling me, how amazing it is and all... and I
just... wanted to be there... and... See how our baby not just on a
picture... hear the heartbeat too and all..."
Andy said smiling
proudly
