Chapter 21

Month Two

Gaining weight made me slightly off balance and none of my clothes seemed to be fitting me, not to mention the fact I hadn't been to school in three weeks. And I know what your thinking you can't be that fat right. But I truly am I got fat really fast which I don't think is normal. When I asked Mum about it, she just smiled and said she had the same problem and so did Grandma. Wonderful it's a family thing so I'm 2 months a long and look like I could be 4 or 5 I hate my life. Jared of course likes it a lot he he thinks it makes me look sweet Basically he likes the fact he has a visual sort of claim over me, his protective like that which is nice but I feel like a whale. Still that doesn't make me feel any less worry about school I have to return now unless I want to drop out and I don't want to do that until I really have to.

When did these things get so complicated? I knew that as soon as I entered school everyone would know, it was just a fact, and even though most people wouldn't say anything to my face they'd be saying it behind my back. Hell, if Jared and his friends weren't so huge they'd say it to my face.

I'd manage to avoid going out much lately, and when I did I wore loose fitting clothes, so no one noticed. Still, the idea that now everybody would know scared me. Jared of course thought that everyone knowing would be nice. He hated keeping stuff secret, since he already had enough stuff he had to hide, and I'm pretty sure he liked the idea of everyone knowing he was proud. I think, though he'll never admit it, he liked the idea of having something that was his inside of me for nine month. He liked to mark his territory, don't all guys?

"Kim, come on!" Jared yells whinily.

"Kim, I don't love you like Jared does, so you being late is not endearing!" Paul screams, and I can hear the sound of Jared hitting him hard.

"Coming!" I call, nervously tugging at my clothes that so obviously show that I have a baby on board.

"Good luck," Davie calls as I walk past him. He's too busy talking to Leah to give me too much attention. Leah manages to give me a encouraging smile and then turns back to Davie, and gives him a 'I love you' look, which he returns, and I smile a little at this. By the time I reach the car, Paul looks annoyed to say the least. He's fiddling with the radio, and turns it up louder as soon as the Living End starts playing.

Jared, on the other hand, gives me a kiss, the kind that we both lose ourselves in.

"Drive before I die of old age." Paul groans after a second.

"You're a real mood killer, did you know that?" Jared says with a roll of his eyes.

"Yep, and I'm proud of I,t otherwise all you'd do is make more babies," Paul says with a huge grin.

I blush of course, causing Paul to laugh.

"Come on, we all know you did it, you're kind of advertising it," Paul explains. I manage to turn redder.

"Say one more thing that makes Kim blush and you'll be walking," Jared warns.

"You make her blush all the time."

"Yeah, cause I compliment her. You, on the other hand, like to talk about our sex life, probably 'cause you don't have one."

"I do too!" Paul defends.

"Please, Sam has not slept with you," I say, grinning.

Paul sulks for the rest of the car ride, and I try and forget about what will happen as soon as I step outside of this car. When we pull up I look around, watching everyone. None of them are looking at us and in a couple of moments that will change. I take a huge breath and open the door. Jared looks annoyed that I beat him too it.

The pack is all coming towards us now, and it almost looks like they're about to form a shield so no one can see. Embry greets me first, giving me a hug, and I can tell no one has noticed me yet, so I guess that's a good thing, right?

Still part of me wishes I could just get it over with instead of dragging it out.

"Hey Kim, miss me?" Embry says, grinning widely.

"Course," I say, managing to grin back.

"I knew it! See Jared, she does like me more," Embry insists.

"She does not like you more," Jared says, looking mad. Sometimes his jealousy is almost amusing, I mean, it's Embry!

"She does too, now may I walk you to class?" Embry says, winking.

"No," Jared jumps in.

"What? Why not?" Embry asks, looking at him innocently.

"Cause I'm walking her," Jared says and grabs my hand, and we slowly begin to walk. As soon as I step outside the large wall that is protecting me. all eyes are on me. Every single pair. They're all just staring at me, some in shock ,some in amusement. Others look sorry for me, some look happy for me – okay, that's a lie - and others look ashamed and disappointed in me. I want to just walk away and forget about school, more then anything, but I can't bring myself to do it.

Jared holds to me tighter in a protective way, almost daring anyone to say anything.

"What the fuck are you all looking at?" Paul growls, looking pissed and almost shaking.

Everyone turns away, trying to act like they weren't blatantly staring at me, and I hate them for that. Jared walks me to my first class with Paul, who looks pissed, and I'm almost flattered he cares so much. Embry and Jake walk behind, glaring at everyone. Finally Jared has to leave after the bell rings, and gives me a quick kiss before he leaves. As soon as I walk into the classroom and everyone notices Jared isn't there the cruelty starts, Most of them just whisper loud enough for me to here.

"God what a slut."

"I hope she gives it up."

"What's wrong with her?"

"I mean, sure Jared's hot, but a kid? Who's she kidding, it ain't going to keep him around."

"Whore."

I try and block it all out, but that's an impossible task, I realise almost straight away. At least no one is bothering to say it to my face.

"Kim, please tell me you just put on some weight," Juliet Barner asks. I don't know Juliet that well, she's Miss Popularity around here so we don't exactly run in the same circles. I do know that Embry turned her down, which is properly while she's been so nasty. She's insecure, I chant to myself but it doesn't seem to help.

"No, I'm pregnant."

"How lovely," she sneers. "When are you moving into your trailer?"

"I'm sorry?" I whisper.

"Well, you have the whole white trash thing down. Just need the right place, right?"

"Class, settle down," Mr Danes' voice booms, and I walk past Juliet begging myself not to cry. I manage not to, but I have to wait till everyone's left before I can leave the classroom.

"Kim."

My head snaps up and I stare at Mr Danes.

"Yeah?"

"I understand that your life is changing at the moment and you don't need any extra worry, so please come to me if anything gets out of hand," Mr Danes says. He's a kind guy, and I sort of want to hug him for being so nice.

"Thanks, I really appreciate it." To my horror I start crying.

"Are you okay?" Mr Danes asks gently.

"Yes, it's just, you're being so nice it makes me want to cry...sad I know."

"It's okay Kim, when I was your age my girlfriend became pregnant, so I understand the mood swings," Mr Danes says, smiling.

"Really? Did you end up together?" I ask. I mean, sure Jared has imprinted on me, but a nice happy ending would be nice after the morning I've had.

"We're married now and have four kids. Look Kim, it's hard but it can be done."

"Yeah I know. I mean, I think I know," I say through tears.

"You know what, Kim? You should come and say hello to my wife, maybe this afternoon? It might be good to talk to a person who knows what you're going through," Mr Danes suggests. He pulls out a pen and a piece of paper and writes his address.

"No pressure Kim, but you're welcome any time," Mr Danes explains.

"Thanks," I say wiping my tears away and rushing off to my next class.

The next two classes were a breeze. With Embry and Quil in both, no one dared to say a thing, and after Mr Danes' kindness I felt better. Happy even. It wasn't till the bell rang for lunch, and both Quil and Embry had to go the bathroom and I assured them that I could get to the lunch spot just fine, that I ran into Jordan.

I hadn't really seen him much since Jared had punched him, but there he was, staring and smirking at me. I wasn't sure what he was going to do, but it wasn't going to be good. He probably thought he had to prove he was just as strong as Jared, idiot.

"Courtney, lovely to see you! Especially with a baby! You really did live up to your name," Jordan says, a smirk playing on his lips.

I figure to ignore him and keep going, but a crowd has formed filled with curious people, all interested in my life and my stomach. I wish they could just back off.

I look around looking for escape, but I can't seem to find one.

"So...Kimberly. What do you think it'll be? A boy or a girl? Personally, I think it'll be a girl. 
Then you can have a mother/daughter thing going on, and a strip club. Sexy, right?" Jordan says and smiles. Some people laugh but most people just seemed sort of stunned. Join the club, I thought.

"Though then again, having a boy could round you up some business as he gets older," Jordan continues, and that's when I see Jared pushing through the crowd, but Jordan doesn't and he keeps going.

"I mean, if you have a son you'll get extra business! He can invite all his friends round. Plus Jared already has a whole group of friends, but I am curious...Who is the father out of that little group? Jared, Embry, Paul? The list goes on..."

"Get the hell away from her!" Jared screams. Every one goes silent, I swear you could hear a pin drop.

"Jared it's okay. Come on," I say, grabbing his arm lightly.

"Kim this is not okay," Jared says, and pushes me off lightly. He grabs Jordan, punching his face first. Jordan tries to hit him back but he fails. Jared seems to be on a roll, 'cause he just keeps hitting. What if Jordan gets seriously injured and presses charges? I think. I begin to sob loudly and in complete tears, I spot Paul in the crowd making his way over to me.

"Jared" Paul warns, pushing him off and holding him back. Embry appears and holds Jordan back, who clearly still wants to hurt him.

"Jared, that's enough," I whisper, praying he'll stop trying to lunge at Jordan, who's a mess but looks like he'll be fine.

"No Kim, it's never enough when someone's cruel to you," Jared says, loudly of course so everyone hears. He pulls away from Embry and Paul and makes his way over to me, kissing me sweetly on the mouth. He slings his arm over me protectively.

"You, stay away from her or I'll kill you," Jared says to Jordan.

"And we won't stop him," Paul says, looking deadly.

"Now that's over...can we eat?" Embry asks.

The crowd slowly clears away, and I get the feeling no one is going to bother me anymore about the pregnant thing. Well, at least the everyone knowing thing is over.
