Crazy Ride

Chapter 8

"Not going to happen, Cat!" Andre's angry voice could be heard throughout the campus.

Inside of the ridiculously large cupcake float, Cat pouted. "What? But…why don't you guys like your costumes?"

Beck and Andre stared down at themselves and winced at the bright colors of their itchy pajamas Cat wanted them to wear for the parade. Beck crossed his arms, trying not to yell Cat's head off. "Why? Are you seriously asking us why?"

Cat frowned. "They're Candy-Jami's, and they go perfect with our cupcake theme." She batted her eyes and puffed up her lower lip. "Please?"

"Not happening, Cat." Beck shook his head. "Girl, I love you like a sister, but this is where I draw the line."

"Cat, you know I love you so much and I want nothing more than to see you happy." Andre told her. "But same as Beck. I'm putting my foot down on this one."

Suddenly tears came to Cat's eyes. "But…but…" She slowly walked up to Andre and wrapped her arms around his waist and he wrapped his stronger arms around her petite, pregnant body out of instinct. "If you don't, I'll be upset…I thought you didn't want me to be upset, since that could hurt the baby and me, health-wise."

Damn.

They heard Jade chuckle. "I've taught her well."

Cat stood on her tippy-toes and gave Andre a gentle kiss on the cheek. "Please, babe? For me?" She gave him her puppy dog eyes.

Beck groaned, knowing Cat definitely won this one.

Andre put his hands on either side of Cat's head and kissed her lips gently and then smiled to her. "If this is what you really want, then we'll do it. I did tell you I'd give you the world. And this is part of the world."

Cat squealed. "Yay! Thank you so much! I love you!" She pecked his lips and then went back to her clipboard, since she couldn't exactly do much to help physically.

"I love you too, babygirl." He said as she went over to talk to Tori. He saw the look he was getting from Beck's angry face and chuckled nervously. "What can I say? The girl has me wrapped around her finger."

Beck growled. "Use your backbone, will you?"

Andre grinned. "I would, but Cat wanted that too."

"What's THAT supposed to mean?" They heard his girlfriend screech.

"Oops."

Tori finished doing something to the roof of the cupcake and then came back down the ladder. "And this cupcake is done!" She called out and everyone sighed in relief.

"Yay! Cupcake power!" Cat bounced around.

"Cat, stop that!" Andre scolded. "You'll hurt yourself and our son!"

"Alright, everyone let's get in the float already." Jade grumbled as she headed in first.

Once everyone was settled in and Beck took the driver's seat, Andre realized something as he helped Cat sit down on the floor. "Hang on…" Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked to him. "This thing has no seatbelts! My 5 month pregnant girlfriend can't ride in this! What if we wreck? No way! I'm not-"

"Shut up before I punch your nose into your face!" Jade snapped.

Andre gulped, but stood his ground. "I am afraid of your threats, Jade, but Cat's safety is too important!"

Beck raised an eyebrow. "Andre, chill. I'm a decent driver. She'll be fine. We're not going to crash. I haven't been in an accident yet."

"Oh really?" Andre crossed his arms. "And the time you backed into Donald Trump's limo wasn't considered an accident?"

"We didn't need to bring that up." Beck gripped the handle that would make the cupcake go. "Just sit down next to her and keep her protected like a good boyfriend would."

Andre hesitated, until a small hand grabbed his and tugged it a little. He looked down to Cat's pleading face. "Alright." He sighed and immediately wrapped his arms protectively around his pregnant girlfriend's stomach. "Let's go."

"Alright, guys!" Beck turned the "cupcake" on and put in forward. "Here we go!" He yelled as they started going.

"Ooh!"

"Yay!"

"Whew-Whoo!"

And the yelling died down as they felt nothing.

"Are we moving?" Cat asked innocently.

Beck nodded. "Yeah, we're moving."

Andre blinked. "Can't this thing go any faster?"

"No."

Andre shrugged it off. "I guess this would be a safe speed for Cat."

"Andre, going this speed, we'll barely make it there." Tori told him, already bored.

Cat squealed. "Friendship bonding time!"

Jade's eyes widened. "Oh my god…pull over, I want out."

Everyone was silent as Beck drove them into a dangerous neighborhood. He gulped. "This place doesn't look safe."

"Oh, suck it up, you big baby." Sikowitz said, his arms crossed as he sat lazily on the bench.

"If you were looking through these binoculars right now, you'd feel the same way I do." Beck muttered.

"As long as we don't get a flat tire or something like that, we'll be fine." Robbie said, trying to be positive.

BOOM

And suddenly everything came to a stop.

Rex groaned. "Aw, thanks a lot, Rob!"

"What happened?" Jade asked curiously.

"Well, either we have a flat tire, or we're flying." Beck looked back at everyone. "We're not flying." He said before Cat could ask if they were or not.

"Let me go look at it." Sikowitz went out the door.

Cat tugged on Andre's shirt as he still had his arms around her. "My legs are sore. I need to walk around."

Andre nodded. "We'll go outside with Sikowitz." Andre helped her to her feet. "Cat, you're such a beautiful pregnant woman." He said, giving her a kiss on the cheek.

Cat giggled and blushed, putting her hands on her large stomach.

"Awww." Tori commented.

Andre helped Cat outside and they walked over to Sikowitz and Robbie was there too. "How's the tire looking?" Andre asked as Cat was looking around at the filthy place.

Robbie sighed. "Not good. It has a hole in it. There's no way to fix it unless we get another tire."

Andre felt another tug on his shirt. "Not now, sweetie." He said patiently to Cat as he examined the tire a bit.

"Uh…Andre…we need to go back in the cupcake now." Cat's shaky voice said.

Andre looked to her. "Why?" He saw her in a trance state looking behind him. He looked in that direction and his eyes widened. "Uh…"

"Back in the cupcake!" Sikowitz said, going back in.

Robbie waited until Andre hoisted Cat safely into his arms, and they both ran into the cupcake, locking the door behind them.

Everyone else looked panicked. "What happened out there?" Tori asked as the boys caught their breath and Andre let Cat stand on her own feet.

"There was this big group of mean, scary guys coming towards us." Cat said timidly. "It scared-AH!" She screamed as they felt the whole cupcake jerk back and forth. The guys from outside were shaking the cupcake. Cat fell to her knees, but before she could fully crash land to the ground, her hands caught her weight in front of her, saving the precious baby boy in her pregnant stomach.

Andre's heart almost stopped. "Oh my god, Cat!" He yelled, forgetting the situation they were currently in. He kneeled down to her and helped her to her knees. "Guys, we have to do something!"

"The confetti cannon!" Robbie screamed.

Beck jumped over towards the driver's seat and pressed a button, suddenly a big explosion was heard. Andre covered Cat's ears. They heard the guys scatter and suddenly silence.

Cat whimpered. "My poor baby was almost hurt." She mumbled as she rubbed her stomach with one hand, and her other arm around Andre's waist. Andre had his arms tightly around her body.

"I think there's a store down the street. I'll run there and back and be back in 20 minutes." Sikowitz bravely said and left the cupcake.

Suddenly Cat screamed again. "AH!"

Now everyone's heart skipped a few beats. "What?" Andre asked hastily.

"That sack just moved!" Cat screeched loudly, pointing to a sack by the driver's seat.

As if on cue, they saw the bag twitch.

Tori blinked and took her foot, kicking the bag.

"OW!"

"AH! The sack is talking!" Cat curled up into Andre's chest, as he shook his head at her naïve mind.

A body withered itself out of the bag and long brown hair whipped itself out of the person's face, making everyone groan.

"TRINA!" Tori snapped. "What are you doing here?"

Trina stood to her feet. "I want to be in the parade-parade!"

Before anyone could argue, Cat whimpered again. "I really need to pee."

"When do you NOT have to pee?" Rex asked from Robbie's lap.

"I'm pregnant! A baby is practically sitting on top of my bladder!" Cat snapped. "And if I don't get a bathroom soon, we'll have a mess to clean up!"

Andre looked like he wanted to hang himself. "Cat, it is way too dangerous-"

"Andre." Cat growled, startling everyone since they've heard that type of devilish tone coming from the small redhead. "I am pregnant. The courts would NOT blame me if I break your nose. Get me a bathroom. NOW!"

Andre backed away at the last word. "Okay, okay!" He stood up and looked to the others. "I…am…" He turned to Cat. "How do I do this? I don't want you to go out there! But-"

"Ugh, Andre, get me to a bathroom now!" Cat groaned. "My stomach is killing me from holding in my pee!"

Andre hated it when Cat was in pain. "Aw, screw it!" He hoisted her into his arms again.

Jade pushed Beck. "Go with him."

Beck nodded, doing as she said. "Let's go." He unlocked the door and jumped out, helping Andre get Cat out. "We'll be back."

"Beck!"

Beck opened the door again to peek in and see his girlfriend give him a dirty look. "Yes?"

"You two morons better take care of Cat, or else-"

Not wanting to hear the rest of her threat, Beck slammed the door. He'd pay for that later, but for now, he knew she knew that he would NEVER let anything happen to the 5'1'' pregnant redhead.

Andre looked around, Cat in his arms. "Okay…um…where to go?"

"We can try heading the way Sikowitz said the store was." Beck pointed. "He said it wasn't that far."

Andre nodded. "Okay. Let's head out."

"Andre, I can walk." Before her boyfriend could argue, Cat beat him to it. "I need to stretch my legs too."

"Dang." Andre set her down. "Being pregnant is a very sensitive matter on your body, huh?" He asked, putting an arm around her waist.

Cat nodded. "It's absolutely exhausting. And considering I haven't slept in such a long time…uh-oh." She whispered the last part.

Beck and Andre took a step back as they saw a group of 3 guys coming towards them. "Uh…we don't want any trouble." Beck said slowly, but clearly.

"What you kids doing around my parts?" One of them asked, viciously.

Cat raised an eyebrow. "You own this town?"

"You best believe I do!" He snapped, making Cat cower and Andre stood in front of her. "Hey, fellas, she's prego…she'd be fun to play with." He snickered. "Why don't you boys run along and I'll be playing with the redhead cutie behind you."

Andre growled as Cat gripped the back of his shirt. "Touch her and you'll die." He growled out with venom. Cat shuddered from hearing the emotion in his voice.

"I'm guessing you're the daddy?" The guy shrugged. "Just share." He said, stepping closer.

Beck stood close to Andre, his heart racing. "We don't want trouble! We just want a stupid bathroom!" He yelled.

But the guys just laughed at his statement.

Cat growled, losing her patience. She pushed Andre aside, making him crash into Beck. "Okay, look!" She snapped, making everyone look to her. "I have not gone pee for over 2 hours now, and THAT is NOT a good thing for me, considering I am 5 months pregnant with a baby boy, who loves to sit on his mommy's already tiny bladder!" She screeched, making all the men fearful. "You show us where a bathroom is, or you'll be facing a pissed off, moody pregnant chick, who is dressed in pink CANDY JAMIS!"

Everyone stared at her in awe.

Cat shrugged. "HELLO?"

"Down that way!" One of the men said, pointing behind them. "There's a store down there! They'll let you use the bathroom!"

"And another question." Cat tested her limits. "Do any of you know how to change a tire?"

They all nodded. "Yes, yes, we do." Another one said nervously.

"Good. Let's go buy a tire and get me a bathroom, and you guys can help us. Kay?" She asked innocently. "Pretty please?"

Andre stared in awe at his girlfriend, who convinced the group of violent men to help them. As they all began walking to the store, he gave her a kiss on the cheek. "You're so amazing."

Next "Dumb Question":

If you didn't get caught, did you really do it?

Preview for Chapter 9 (gonna be funny)

Andre stared in shock at the 6 month pregnant girl in front of him. "Wait, what? How did this turn into doubting my love for you? Cat, I love you, but are you REALLY going to make me go ALL THE WAY to the store just because you're craving some STICKING CANTALOUPE?" He snapped.

Now tears came to Cat's eyes. "You're such a selfish jerk, Andre Harris! I can't believe you!"

Andre quieted down as she began sobbing. "Oh, no, babe, I-"

"Harris." Andre winced at Jade's vicious tone of voice. Jade came up slowly and faced him while Tori comforted the crying Cat. "Go get the stupid fruit. NOW!"
