Trust Issues

Chapter 11

Claire's P.O.V.

I walked downstairs and Shaye had gotten up. I sat down and picked up Lord of the Flies a really good and interesting novel that we have to read in Honors English. (A/N: lol I'm advertising for William Golding's book, lol but seriously I loved that book and I had to read it sophomore year.)

Shaye moved in yesterday, she's going to stay at our house from now on, yesterday we moved some of her stuff in, most of her clothes and things, and we had an extra room that we used as a guest room that's now Shaye's. Shaye's bother has been going to Seattle and staying up their more and more, until he decide to stay in a dorm, or apartment there, it was a lot less hassle instead of trying to complete med-school all the way in La Push. Her parents worked as tech software people and had a permanent apartment there, and Shaye was living all alone.

The moment I sat down, got comfortable, and started reading my book, Shaye began complaining.

"My ankles hurt" she complained

"I know" I said simply, reading Lord Of The Flies

"My hips hurt" she complained even more.

"Oh stop complaining, its not like you're the first person to be pregnant." I said smiling. Quil was giving us a ride to her doctors, and Shaye tried to convince me to let her drive but failed.

Quil was upset still a bit upset that I didn't tell him about Shaye's baby but not that much, since he knew I made a promise to her that I couldn't tell anyone. However, Quil was really upset with Shaye. He didn't come out and say it, but the way he acts, talks, and looks at her, the sad, betrayed, upset, and pained look on his face expressed it all. He was mad at what she supposedly did and hurt one of his best friends, one of his brothers."You ready to go." He said addressing me, and trying not to acknowledge Shaye.

"Yeah, let's go" I said a bit ticked off, he shouldn't be treating her like that, but he did think she cheated on Seth, but that's no reason to treat her like that especially since she's my best friend.

We drove all the way to the doctor's office with Quil talking only to me, and not Shaye.

Quil didn't want a part in this and he decided to stay in the car after several minutes of failed persuasion to get him to come.

We got in the waiting room, after Shaye signed in. There were a few other younger women, but most of them weren't pregnant, and the ones that were, were at least in their 20s, and that didn't make Shaye feel any better.

When we finally got called into the room, the doctor did the routine exams, temperature, any pains, illnesses, weight, height, urine, and blood pressure, etc. She then took Shaye into another room where the ultrasound was.

I prepped the video camera, and pressed record. I decided a while ago, when we first found out she was pregnant to film it, and take pictures of each week. Shaye joked around and said I was her substitute husband. I filmed every ultrasound even though we had pictures of it. I was doing this for her, and me, but just in case she decides to tell Seth, which is doubtful, but at least he can experience it with her. But unfortunately most of the tapes are filled with her complaining about her body, how fat she was, and all her aches and pains.

She put the blue, green gel on her stomach; she got goose bumps from the coldness of it.

"Do you want to know the sex of the baby?" The doctor asked politely.

"Yes please!" she said loudly, she was excited, and nervous ant he same time, we both got nervous until we heard the heart beat of her baby. She placed the head of the ultrasound machine on her stomach.

"There's the head" she said. Shaye had tears in her eyes. "oh, look, it's a boy!" she looked happily at Shaye and smiled. "Congratulations" she said.

She began to cry out of joy, but also out of pain and loneliness, and loss. I knew that she was happy about her baby, but she was upset and sad that Seth couldn't be here, instead of me. We both knew each other almost as well as ourselves.

Shaye stayed to sign for her insurance form, and pay the co-pay, while I ran out to tell Quil. Shaye could hear me, and she finished paying and everything quite fast.

"Quil! Quil!" I yelled elated

"Huh?" he looked up confused, he was daydreaming

"IT'S A BOY! IT'S A BOY!" I yelled exited.

"Oh, congrats" he said in a deadpan voice, that showed he didn't mean it, I gave him a glare. Didn't he learn when he was in kindergarten if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it at all. Same rules apply when the other person can tell that you don't mean it.

The next day we went to school, everyone could tell that Shaye was having a baby they could tell before but now her stomach showed a lot more, and she didn't have any extra weight gain anywhere but her stomach. So, it was obvious.

She always has a longing face when we passed people in the halls, she always looked around for a glimpse of Seth, and it would make her happy yet sad, it was a bitter sweet kind of thing for her. She always wanted to go up to him, and be with him, like the pull of a magnet is what you feel for your wolf. She wanted to talk to him, her body would almost always react on its own, wanting to go with him, but she argued with herself in her head, you could see the cogs turning in her head. She'd shake her head, and nod, and wag her finger, as if saying, yeah, that's a good point, she was going slightly more insane than before. Watching her fight with herself was slightly amusing but sad at the same time. However one hundred percent of the time the no side won.

Shaye stopped going to school, she started taking online courses and doing independent study. She sent me to school to pick up her homework, and I had to explain it her when I got home. I also turned in all her things, and she also took all her quizzes and tests online, they were timed, and if you left the website, or that page, it would not let you access the page again, and you got stuck with a zero.

Quil started coming over a lot less it was upsetting. One because of Shaye, two he was busy, and three, I think it's because of me.

"Hey" Quil said swiftly coming threw my window. You'd think someone that tall and muscular wouldn't be graceful, I was always envious. It was almost disturbing watching how graceful they were, but what was disturbing until I got to know them was Emmett, he was very muscular and he moved so gracefully it was scary, none of the wolves got anywhere near that elegant. When I told Emmett how elegantly he moved he laughed at me, but he always found a way to make me laugh too.

"Hay is for horses" I said trying to make a joke to lighten his mood. Luckily I got a small smile, and his lips twitched trying not to laugh. He was so immature. I swear after 13 years of being 16 you'd think they'd have matured, but nope they still had the maturity of a 16 year old boy, but 16 year old boys have the maturity of an eight year old.

"Claire, I want to ask you something" he said with total seriousness

"Yeah?" I asked nervously. "What is it?"

"You can trust in me, I can keep a secret, obviously, but I want you to tell me everything, even if I'll hurt me, please?" he asked with sincere eyes. I almost gave in.

"Yeah ok." I said with a smile on my face that I hoped he couldn't tell was fake. I felt bad for lying to him in the first place, and I felt even worse for lying to him about lying to him, and about lying to him that I wouldn't lie to him. My head hurt.

"Good" he said smiling "Hay is for horses" he repeated my lame one line joke "hehehe" he laughed at it.

"Oh my god Quil you're so immature" I said throwing a pillow at him to make sure we were off the topic.

"I know, but that's why you love me" he stated with a laugh

"Sometimes" I joked, "but I think I want a more mature man, so I think I'll go down to the local pre-school and pick out a really mature four year old" I laughed

"Hahah" he said sarcastically "I'm more mature than a four year old, I'm at least mature as a five year old" he joked back "and you're as tall as a five year old too, so we're a match.

"Hey! Don't judge me by my height you overly grown puppy" I said pretending to be mad. I tried to keep a frown but it wasn't working, I was working really hard to stop my lips from turning upward

"Don't strain yourself, your going to break your face" he joked. We seemed to be on good terms, but I kept getting a bad feeling it was all going to go bad.

For several weeks we've been trying to come up with names, but we had none, she was really picky, we looked on the internet, we looked in baby books, but none would work for her.

She was almost eight months when we finally had a break through.

"How about, Xavier?" I asked

"Naww, that name complicated." She told me and dismissed it

"No its not" I argued

"Is so" she said and I let it go.

"How about, Nathanial?"

"Naw, I want something more common" she said."and something that has a good meaning."

"Well Nate?" I asked

"No, that's short for Nathanial"

"OH!" I exclaimed excitedly, I was sure she'd like this one, I was positive."I found a good one."

"Really? What?" she asked curiously

"How about Alexander it means man's defender or warrior."I smiled, that name was perfect for her baby, it fit him. "Chances are he's going to be a wolf, and that's an amazing name, and we can call him Alex!" I said, at that point I didn't care if she liked it or not, if she said no, too bad, cause I'd knock her out, and tell the nurse her baby's name is Alexander.

"That's perfect! I love that name!" she said equally excited, she deemed it worthy."But what's his full name going to be?"

"Um we decided on the middle name going to be Seth right?" I asked, she wanted her baby to carry part of his father with him, because no one would ask him for his middle name.

"Yeah" she said with her head in the clouds "And?" she said

"Um so what sounds better? Alexander Seth Johnson, or Alexander Seth Clearwater." I said, immediately I knew the answer, and so did she.

We both looked at each other and smiled "Clearwater" we both agreed.

"Um, are you ever going to tell Seth about his son?" she asked

"Well, it depends, but most likely not. I don't want to turn Seth's life into a soap opera have it be all dramatic. I also don't want him to buck down, have no fun, and be unhappy just because he's going to be a dad." she said sadly Apparently everyone would assume, or she'd tell him, his name is Alex Johnson.

"But it's going to be hard to take care of a baby by yourself." I asked, baby's are very expensive, and I knew that with Nessie on her side, and Rosalie, Alice, and Esme loving babies so much, they'd pay for all his expenses, but she liked being independent, and she didn't want a free ride, on things, she had to own up on her responsibility.

"I know, I'll have to drop out of school and get a job." She said

We heard a knock on the door, "That must be Quil." I told her, I was excited. "QUIL! JUST A SEC!" I yelled loudly out the window so he could hear me, I'd get the door in just a minute."So its decided? Alexander Seth Clearwater?" I asked quietly.

"Yeah" she said with a huge goofy smile plastered across her face. We then heard an almost inaudible gasp. My heart froze and my stomach dropped. We both turned around and saw Quil had climbed up to the window. His face was frozen in shock, his face looked like stone, and he looked like he'd stay that way forever. "No, way!" he said.

"Oh no! Quil! You can tell ANYONE!" I panicked as I ran to the window to pull Quil up even though he didn't need any help. I needed something to do, a way to release all my panic and worry.

"Wait?" he asked confused and dazed "Give me a minute" he asked us.

After a long pause he finally said "So, its Seth's kid?" he asked still in a daze

"Yeah," Shaye looked ashamed, she looked on to the floor unable to face his angry and betrayed eyes. "But you can't tell him." She pleaded with him "Please, you can't tell him." she begged

"Why not?" he asked indigently "He has the right to know…and your killing him by making him think you went off and found someone else." He was furious "and especially by making him think your having someone else's kid!" he yelled loudly

"HE DOESN'T WANT TO BE FATHER!" she yelled in tears. I tried to stop this, or at least stop it from getting worse, but I couldn't really do anything, I was stunned, I sat on my bed, I was lost, I didn't know what to do.

"What?" is all he said, he looked to me and I couldn't face him, I looked away, I didn't want to see his betrayed face. I didn't deserve him, he deserved someone better than someone who would lie to him constantly, I can't believe he still trusted me.

"He said it must suck to have to be tied down with responsibilities and have no fun, he told me that when he found out Ness was having a baby." I sobbed "I didn't want to ruin his life." She said sadly with tears streaming her face. "I didn't want to ruin it" she repeated to herself.

"Shaye, you won't ruin his life, he's miserable without you. I'm sure he'd think different when he knew it was his." I wasn't in the argument, I didn't want to be, I was so stunned and worried, that I couldn't speak.

"No, I don't want him to feel obligated to come and see me, and take care of the baby."

"Obligated? HA! Seth is miserable not seeing you, he used to stare and stalk you at school until you stopped going, and that was the only time when he was the happiest," he said with a sharp tone, and a touch of insanity to it. "if you can call that happy" he added as a side note.

"No, I stand by my decision, he'll find someone else soon enough, or he'll imprint on someone else, or at least un-imprint on me right." She said determined to win this argument.

His response was laughing a dark joyless laugh it scared me. "Yeah right! It doesn't work that way, you have that tie with that person until death, they are your reason for living, they are your universe, your life, your everything."

"Just go away Quil. Please?" she begged him

"But how am I supposed to keep this a secret? My thoughts are read when go on patrol." He said unhappy with both of us, every time he turned to look at me I looked away.

"Well then try going on patrol only on the single by yourself shift." I finally joined in, but I didn't look at anyone

"Whatever, just so you know, you need to tell him." He said sadly, he gave me a disapproving and deceived stare that I caught as he jumped out the window. I felt horrible, I felt worse than when he found out about the baby in the first place. I felt my heart break at the thought of not seeing him again, or him not wanting to be around me.

Shaye was panicking too, but for another reason, "Do you think he's going to tell him?" she asked extremely anxious and nervous "I dono Shaye, he might" I stared out the window in a completely lost daze. I didn't know what to do anymore, he was never going to trust me, I can't believe he still loves me, he can't. I bet he wishes he could leave me, but can't, he's forced against his will to be with me.

I know I know, it's a lot like what happened last chapter, but, trust me, I think you'll like the next chapter! I'm in the process of writing it, so bare with me!
