CH.39

Allie was 5 ½ months pregnant now and it showed.

Allison was also very grateful at the fact that her mother accepted what was going on and would be there with her through it all. Though she was happy for this, she still felt much pain. She thought about Shayne every single day. She missed him so much it hurt it had been 2 months and no call or anything from Shayne, but she couldn't blame him, this IS what she "wanted"
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Chloe and Allison decided to go to the mall one Saturday

"So Allie, how are you doing with the pregnancy so far?" Chloe asked as they walked around the mall.

"Well so far ok I guess, all the "morning" sickness is gone so that's good."

"Are you scared?"

"Not really scared, I'm a bit nervous yet excited even though this is one of the saddest and hardest time in my life" Allie said looking down as she felt tears building up but didn't.

"Its ok Allie, I mean, you have me and your mom here for you. Though I know the main thing hurting you is not being with Shayne, but just remember that he's hurting too"

"I know Chloe, I know, but like I said this is the best thing for him"

As soon as Chloe was about to respond to that Allie walked in to a baby shop and Chloe quickly followed her.

"Oh my god Chloe! Look at all these cute tiny baby outfits." Allie said getting all mushy and excited.

Chloe just chuckled.

"Oh Chloe! Look at this cute little green body suit!" Allie said as she held up and placed it over her tummy. Then feeling melancholy as she remembered that green was not only her favorite color but Shayne's too.

"That's so cute!" Chloe answered getting into the 'baby shopping' mood.

"I so have to get this!" Allison said as she kept it and walked over to the other side of the shop looking around at all the baby stuff.

"Allison, isn't it a little too early to start baby shopping? I mean you don't even know if it's a boy or a girl yet" Chloe said as she trailed behind her friend.

"The earlier the better, I say, plus I have the biggest feeling it's a boy."

"Aww well that kinda sucks, I mean wouldn't you've liked a girl better?"

"Oh no, no, I want a boy! I hope my baby's a boy!" Allie said excitedly and with a huge grin on her face.

Chloe laughed. "That's good Allison, as long as it's healthy and has all its body parts"

"Oh shut up Chlo'" Allie said laughing a bit.

Chloe laughed. "Well, you know what I mean"

"yeah I do"

"Allison?" Chloe said in a serious yet gentle tone and expression.

"Yeah Chloe?" Allie said not really paying attention to her friend but to all the baby clothes.

"Do you think Shayne would've wanted a baby boy?" Chloe asked trying to say it as careful as possible.

Allie quickly turned serious and looked at Chloe. "No Chloe, Shayne wouldn't have wanted a baby at all"

"How do you know that?"

"Listen, it doesn't matter I'm just sure he doesn't. Anyways it's not like he's gonna know about this anyways so lets just drop it ok" Allie said turning her attention, again, to her baby shopping.

Chloe just nodded her head and followed behind her friend.

Allison left that baby shop with 3 of the cutest baby outfits along with some body under suits and a diaper hanger. She wanted more but knew there would be more time to get what she needed later. She still had 4 months to go.

"Damn Allie, I cant believe you've already bought baby stuff this early, barely in your 2nd trimester" Chloe said laughing as they headed home.

"Hey, like I said, its never too early. Plus time goes by fast. I don't want to be rushing out to shops getting stuff I need, right before I have my baby. I want to live this experience calmly and enjoy it." Allie said as she was driving, at the same time thinking how she really wanted Shayne to be a part of this as, as she pictured her and Shayne in that same baby store picking out cute baby clothes. But quickly brushed those thoughts away.

"That's good Allison. Good Job, Hun!"

Both girls laughed… and talked the rest of the way home

The day after Peeta and Shayne's "date", Shayne was feeling pretty awkward at the set. He didn't know if what had happened last night or should he say, what didn't happen, would affect them at work.

He arrived at around 9am and saw Peeta a few feet away chatting with one of the crewmen. Shayne kept on with his business and didn't pay attention after that.

"Hello Shayne" he heard as he felt someone from behind put their hands on his shoulders and lean into his ear.

Shayne quickly turned around which made that other person let go while he noticed it was Peeta Wilson and said… "Oh, hi"

"Did you sleep well?" She asked with a sneaky smirk.

"Well, lets just say I've had better nights" he answered referring to not being able to sleep because of everything that was going on with Allison.

"Well then, maybe I can be of some help" Peeta answered running a finger down his chest.

Shayne laughed nervously… " Listen Peeta, I don't know what you might want to happen here, but I have someone right now, and I'm not interested. Plus aren't you married and have a baby?"

"Yes, I have a daughter and I'm separated, so its ok" She went on with a wannabe sexy look.

"Yeah well like I said, I'm involved with someone else right now and its pretty serious, so enough to say, this is strictly professional" Shayne said knowing that he wasn't really with someone else but that love he had for Allie was all he cared about and no one else.

"Fine lover boy, your loss" and with that she spun around and walked off.

Shayne laughed and sighed at how dumb this old chick sounded and was glad that was over with.
