Chapter 6

Dimitri disappeared as we go closer to the house. I began realizing he was just going to wait for the moment he could kill me. This was gonna be a long 6 months

I'm 4 months pregnant now Adrian follows me everywhere. He can't even fight but he swears he will protect me.

"Adrian I would feel a lot better if you would stop." I said one day as we walked home

"Stop what?" he said

"Following me! I have a odd suspicion pretty soon you will follow me into the bathroom!"

" sorry I just want to protect you."

"Well don't I can take care of myself"

"Rose Please, you are pregnant and you are most definitely showing now, you can't fight anyone in your condition."

"Watch me"

I walked toward the house knowing full well Dimitri was sitting in the tree. His presence didn't phase me anymore.

"Hi Dimitri" I said to him and I walked in the house

-August-

Being 5 months pregnant annoys me right now. None of my close fit me now. I had to buy maternity clothes. Adrian has become super protective of me. He almost followed me into the bathroom the other day till I told him to get out. I sat on the porch alone for the first time in a while cause Adrian passed out drunk on the couch when suddenly the jealousy strigoi started talking to me. I was flipping through a baby name book

"All alone Roza?" Dimitri said

"What do you want?" I said rolling my eyes

"To find out what you could possibly be thinking about on a day like this"

"Names for the baby. I guess you missed the baby name book in my hand."

"no I saw it but I figure you probably are just looking through it cause the person who gave it to you is inside and you don't want to hurt there feelings by not looking at it"

"well you are wrong, I bought this myself"

" well have you found any?"

" it would help if I knew if the baby was a boy or girl but everytime I go into town I get followed but a crazy psychotic strigoi"

"Well tell me who he is and I will get rid of him."

"It's you stupid. Good bye"

With that I went inside

-September-

I'm now 6 months pregnant

I was sitting in the kitchen one day when I felt a something strange. It was like a small push in my stomach. Not know if it was good or bad I called for my mom. She came running to find me.

"what's the matter?" my mom said running into the kitchen

"I don't know. I just had this werid feeling like something kicked me." I said

My mom placed her hand on my stomach and it happened again. She smiled and looked at me.

" sweetie that was the baby moving" she said

" no way" I said

" yes."

I was speechless after that. My mom left me alone after I stopped talking. I honestly don't think I talked for the rest of the day

-October-

I'm now 7 months pregnant and I hate Adrian right now. He keeps going on about how much he thinks this pregnancy is changing me. He wish that this had never happened to me. He makes it seem like I planned this. Finally I had enough

"You know what Adrian, SHUT UP!" I said to him after one of his rants

" Make me Rose. You know I'm right. Ever since you found out about the baby you changed. You yell at me constantly about me just wanting to protect you. You don't make sure I"m okay when I pass out drunk like you did for the longest time. You are constantly talking to know no one. I'm tired of it" he said back

"I'm not talking to no one I'm talking to the baby"

"It can't hear you."

" Yes it can. It can probably hear me yelling at you right now."

" whatever Rose. All I know is I can't take it ."

"GET OUT! GO SLEEP ON THE COUCH OR SOMETHING"

"FINE"

I sat there for about 10 minutes before I started to cry. The baby kicked me hard enough to make me gasp. I laughed but at this point nothing could cheer me up.

-November-

Being 8 months pregnant sucks. I'm too fat. Adrian has been avoiding me for a month now. He is still mad about me kicking him out of the room. I found nothing to occupy my time except helping my mom repaint and sleeping. One day Adrian approached me while I was helping my mom.

"Hey Rose." he said

" what do you want?" I said back

" look I'm sorry about my temper lately. I think this whole thing just has me mad. I wasn't like you planned it and your yelling is probably just your hormones."

" I forgive you, but you have to me now with this painting cause I'm terrible."

He smiled and picked up a brush. At least that problem is gone now.

-December-

this is my last month of being as fat as a hippo. I sat in the living room alone when Lissa and Christian came in arguing about something. Lissa was crying again so I intervened

" what's going on" I asked

" stay out of this Rose" Christian said

"Christian thinks I lied to him about you getting pregnant. I told him it was Adrian's kid and he thinks I'm hiding the truth because I'm covering for you being a blood whore in Russia." Lissa said, well he was sorta right but I was already pregnant by then

"stop making her cry she is telling the truth Christian." I said

"Oh we all know you were someone's blood whore in Russia. Adrian said so." Christian said.

"Well then he was wrong" I said

"stop lying to me" Christian said

" we are not lying." I said. Suddenly soemthing hit my face. It was Christians hand, and know he looked pissed.

" why don't you go back to the blood whore coven where you belong" He screamed at me.

Some thing about what he said made me snap. I felt worthless and unwanted. I felt like I had no other option. I got up and ran as fast as I could out of the house
