Chapter 7: No more games
At some point I ended up falling asleep, I don't know when, or how though. But I woke up in my bed. How did I get up here? The last thing I remember was sitting on the couch watching a movie. I know my mom and sister couldn't pick me up, and my dad is out of town. I looked over on my other pillow and saw a note. Then it all rushed back to me.
Rayne was the name both of us had liked, because Rain is always new beginnings, and our baby would be/is a new beginning for us, only I would know that. Also for more proof, you have a scar on your left thigh from the getting out of my truck one day and you scratched yourself. You were wearing that dark blue skirt, and a white tanktop, we sat and laughed for an hour straight.
Still need more proof?
By the way, it's not good to fall asleep like that while pregnant. Meyson kicked me the entire way up the stairs.
I thought about it...i didn't want to push it so I just shook my head. Hoping he would see it. He carried me upstairs. I was in his arms...he felt Meyson. So I still want to love him though? He hurt us...he put us through hell. He helped A. When is One day though? One...one...one.
"One...one day...the vitamins? No we don't have those vitamins. One...one..." I kept sayign.
"Spence? Melissa came in. I quickly put the note under my pillow.
"Yea?" I said.
"Who were you talking to?"
"noone...just myself" I said.
"Ok...well do you want to go to breakfast? Mom had to leave early for a case" she said.
"Sure" I said.
I got up and got dressed. Melissa helped with my shoes of course.
"I feel like a little kid again needing you to tie my shoes" I said. She laughed.
"Not much longer though" she said.
"I know...i'm scared about what my body is going to look like"
"You've been staying active though and still eating right except for that occasional bite of ice cream or that cookie I see you sneaking behind mom's back" she said laughing.
"A pregnant girl can only eat so many fruits and vegetables" I said. We got in the car and drove to the diner.
"Oh hi girls." the waitress said.
"Hey Dee" we said. We've been coming to this diner since we were little kids.
"Water for momma, and a coffee for auntie" she said handing us our drinks.
We order and waited for our food.
"So Caleb is going to come over next weekend to put the nursery together?" she said.
"Yea, just the crib, the swing, and bassinet."
"...are you going to put the chair in there?" she asked. I tensed up a little bit. I forgot about the chair...
"Yea I think so...I mean...it is nice right?" I said.
"Spence...I know I wasn't pregnant for long, but I know how it felt being alone for those few days...I saw you and Toby together, you guys were in love. How are you doing this?" she asked.
"Meyson didn't ask to be born just like I didn't ask to get pregnant, none of this was in my control, but what is in my control is her having a good life. I'm not going to lie it's hard...and it's going to be harder when she's growing up and I look into her eyes, toby's eyes. Or see her dark blonde hair, like toby's, or his nose or lips or even if her personality is like him. There will be at least one thing about her that will remind me of him, and i'm going to have to deal with that. But that can't stop me from making sure she's happy and healthy" I said.
"I think you should move into the barn..." she said.
"No where are you going to stay?" I asked.
"Well...i have been planning this for a month or so now. I got approved for a loan...on one of those small houses by Hollis" she said.
"Really? Does mom and dad know?"
"Yea they do, they wanted to make sure I got everything in order before we told you."
"I'm so happy for you" I said.
"But! I want to be able to see her whenever I want!" she said. We were laughing.
"Of course" I said.
This relationship with my sister is a relief now. She's not constantly blaming me, and hating me, or competing with me.
After we got done eating she dropped me off at school. I don't have a first period class so I wasn't late.
"Hey Spence" Aria came up to me.
"Hey" I said. I was already getting tired from walking, usually I like to wear the latest trend...but since I've been pregnant, I just wear sweats.
"Can you drive me to my doctor's today? My sister has to go up to Philly for some more of her stuff" I said.
"Yea sure." she said. Just than the click of heels coming toward us made us tense up.
"Oh look it's slutty spencey" Mona came up.
"move Mona" Aria said.
"Where's your baby daddy Spence? I hope he's warm" she said.
"What's going on here?" Hanna came up.
"I was just talking to Slutty Spencey and Teacher loving Aria" she said.
"Mona, your really one to talk about whose a slut! Remember your the reason Noel and I broke up!" Aria said.
"I gave him what he wanted"
"You give every guy what they want. Now either you get the hell out of our way or your going to have one seriously hormonal girl pissed off at you. Which believe me, for what you deserve, you don't want to play that game bitch" I said to her. Mona looked at me with a serious look.
"Mess with me, my daughter, or my friends, I will hurt you Mona do you understand? We both know what you did to Toby. We both know you have his body. Don't make me find a way to get you back into Bradley" I said then we walked away.
"Way to go Spencer!" Hanna said.
"I can't take her shit anymore" I said .
"Calm down Spence" Aria said holding my arm. I was angry, and shaking. I needed to calm down.
"I'm calm" I said after taking a deep breath.
Emily came running up to us.
"Guys did you get any texts?" She said. All of us shook our head.
"I got this..." she said handing us her phone.
'I think i'm done playing with you guys now...now the games begin. Bye bitches -A' It said. All of us looked at one another.
"What do you think this means?" Aria said.
"It means shit just real!" Hanna said.
"Everything seems to be very well Spencer, and she's healthy. She's about 5 pounds now, so i'm guessing she'll be anywhere from 6 to 8 pounds when she's born. She's dropped so your now out at the any moment mark. So I would suggest finishing your schooling at home" he said.
"So she could go into labor at any second?" Aria said.
"Yep"
"Wow..." she said.
"It's real now." he said. I looked up at my doctor. Shit just got real...I'm tired of playing with you...the games have began.
"Oh my god!" I said.
"I know it's exciting." my doctor said.
I quickly recovered myself. "Yes...I can't believe this time is finally here" I said.
After we left the doctors we went back to Hanna's.
"Guys! Think about what the text said...Im tired of playing with you! Think about back to 4th grade, remember fatty Mcfadden!" I said. Darrel Mcfadden was the fat kid in our grade, as we grew up Ali got meaner and meaner, than in 4th grade he wasn't playing her game anymore.
"Wait...didn't he get sent to like army camp or something?" Hanna said.
"I'm not saying it's him. But that was the joke back then...nooone wants to play allison's game anymore. What if nothing is going to happen now...what if A is done...but we arent" I said.
"What do you mean?" Aria asked.
"We need to find out once and for all who A is"
