Crazy Ride

Chapter 9

Cat came out of the downstairs bathroom close to the kitchen, while her group of friends was studying in the living room. They decided to have a study session at Cat's, so if she felt tired, she could just take a nap, feeling comfortable as she did. She was 6 months pregnant now and she was ecstatic that the morning sickness had gone away since she was in the 2nd trimester of her pregnancy. And- whoa!

Cat gasped as she leaned against the wall in shock. "ANDRE! HURRY UP! YOU'LL MISS IT AGAIN!" She screamed bloody murder. She heard someone running and then something trip over something, a grunt of pain, and then more running until she saw Andre rush into the hallway where we was next to the bathroom. "Hurry, hurry!" She grabbed his hand and led it to where the kicking was previously, but then she groaned. "Aw, man, you missed it again."

Andre fell to his knees and put his hands on Cat's very large stomach. "Son, I am your father! Let me feel you kick!" He yelled. Cat just laughed. Andre stood to his feet and looked disappointed. "Why does he do that? It's like our son KNOWS I'm coming to feel him kick! Does he hate me?" Now he looked nervous. "Aw, man, he's not even born yet and he already resents me!"

Cat couldn't stop laughing as tears came to her eyes. She wiped them away as she regained herself. "Oh, sweetheart, he doesn't hate or resent you." She put a comforting hand on his cheek. "You're okay. He's going to love you. He's just being a little stinker right now. You'll get to feel him kick soon."

Andre sighed and nodded. "You're right, love." He kissed her lips. "I'm going to use the restroom real quick. Are you okay walking to the living room?"

Cat rolled her eyes and pushed him towards the bathroom. "I'm perfectly capable of walking to the living room in my own house, Andre."

Before Andre shut the door, he glanced at her. "You are perfect in general, Cat." With a wink, he shut the door.

Cat giggled as she went back to the living room and everybody looked up at her.

"Did Andre make it in time?" Tori asked with hope, since it had been bugging Andre to no end.

Cat shook her head.

"Dang." Beck raised an eyebrow. "What's your kid's problem?"

Cat sat down in her original seat. "Don't tell Andre this, since he's already assuming this, but…I think our son hates him." And everybody burst out laughing. "No, but seriously, it's weird that our son stops kicking right when Andre is coming." Cat looked in deep thought.

"Maybe he'll take after his auntie Jade." Jade shrugged, sitting lazily on the couch with her legs on top of Beck's. "He's going to be a punk and rebel."

Cat paled. "Oh my Lord, I hope not!" And then Cat put a hand on her stomach. "I'm hungry…"

Robbie looked to her in shock. "Cat, you're always hungry!"

"And you're still tiny, except for the baby part!" Rex added on, sitting on Robbie's lap. "Where does it all go?"

Cat stared at them. "I'm having a boy! It may not be Andre's biological son, but he sure takes after him on the eating part!"

Tori chuckled as she put her book down. "Let's stop for lunch. Cat, rest your feet. Jade and I will make lunch."

Jade glared, but stood up. "Why do I have to?"

Tori put her hands on her hips as Beck helped Cat put her feet up on the nearest footstool. "Because it's the polite thing to do."

"I don't have to listen to you, Vega!"

"Quit being such a gank!"

"Why don't you take that large stick out of your butt?"

"Oh, but don't you remember? I already did, and then you stole it from me and put it up yours!"

"You'll regret that!" And Jade went to strangle Tori, but Beck grabbed her before she could, and Robbie pulled Tori back when she tried to retaliate. "Let me go! I'm going to rip her hair out!"

"Not before I do, gank!" Tori shouted back.

Cat felt a hand on her shoulder and saw Andre staring to the fight. "What-"

"You don't want to know, hun." Cat said, looking back to the hissy fit. "I'm craving cantaloupe." She randomly said.

Andre looked down to her. "Do we have some here?"

Cat pouted and shook her head. "No…can you go get some?"

Andre blinked. "From the store?"

Cat nodded. "Yes, where else?"

Andre sighed. "Couldn't you have something that's already here?"

Suddenly, a big change in mood came on. "What? Am I not WORTH you going to the store for me?" Cat suddenly screeched out, making the room go silence and the attention all on the offended redhead. "I'm pregnant with YOUR child and this is how you treat me?" She slapped his hand off, kicked the footstool away and jumped to her feet, facing her boyfriend. "I just want some cantaloupe! Is that really too much to ask for? I thought you loved me!"

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!"

Andre stepped away. "Alright, alright, I'm going!"

Cat gasped, the tears suddenly disappeared. She left Tori's arms and went to hug her boyfriend, who's head was spinning. "Oh, thank you, my love!" She kissed his cheek and smiled brightly. "Oh, and while you're there, grab some Big Stick popsicles and fruit roll ups. I've been craving those too."

Andre blinked. "Um…sure, sweetie. Anything for you." He said in an exhausted voice. He kissed her lips to make her feel better.

Beck grabbed his car keys and chuckled. "I'll drive you there, man."

Robbie jumped to his feet with Rex. "I'll go too. I'm a little scared of Cat right now."

Cat gasped. "What's THAT supposed to mean?" She screamed.

Suddenly Andre, Beck, and Robbie rushed out the front door with no words, except their hearts racing.

Andre kicked the grass as they headed towards Beck's car. "I can't take it anymore!" He shouted as he sat in the passenger seat of Beck's car. Robbie jumped in the back, while Beck started the car. "She's draining all my energy! Every day I go home and fall right asleep because she's making me do everything for her!"

Beck chuckled. "That's what kind of comes with having a pregnant girlfriend."

"I didn't know it'd be this hard!" Andre slammed the back of his head on the headrest. "I want my Cat back…before she was pregnant."

"And you'll get her back after she has the baby." Beck tried to console him. "Just 2-3 more months, man. You'll make it."

Andre groaned. "I hope so. I hope I live that long though. With recording my songs at the studio every weekend and Cat always needing me to grab things for her because of her stupid cravings, I just want to rip my dreads out."

"Buy Cat a-"

"I'm not buying her another diamond bracelet!" Andre snapped. "Maybe I'll buy her a…a…" Andre sighed. "I have nothing."

Robbie and Beck also tried to think of something until…

"I have an idea!" Robbie said. "Let's go to Build-A-Bear-Workshop!"

Beck stared at Robbie through his rearview mirror like he had two heads, while Andre turned in his seat to stare at him in disgust. "You want to go WHERE?"

Rex shook his head in shame. "Rob, I knew you were screwed up in the head, but not THIS screwed up."

Robbie chuckled. "Cat loves stuffed toys. Let's go there and you can make one for her. It'll be sentimental and she'll love it."

Beck shrugged. "I agree actually. It will be a great apologetic gift for pissing her off in there."

Andre thought about it and then nodded. "Yeah…yeah, let's go there real quick."

Andre, Beck, and Robbie stepped into the Build-a-Bear-Workshop at the nearest mall and stared in shock at the madness. There were kids everywhere, trying to pick out clothes for their bears.

"I may be sick." Beck said, going pale.

Robbie heard a squeal next to him and jumped at that. He looked down and saw a little boy staring at the puppet in his arms. "Oh, that's the best one yet! Mommy! I want that one!" He pointed up to Rex.

Robbie raised an eyebrow. "Sorry, kid, but Rex here is one of a kind. He-"

Suddenly the kid grabbed Rex's leg. "Give him to me!" He yelled.

Robbie tried to make the kid let go. "Dude, let him go!" He fought back.

Andre and Beck sighed. "Maybe bringing Rex in here wasn't such a smart idea." Andre said as Beck nodded.

An hour later, the three boys and messed up puppet came back into the Valentine house. Andre smiled at Cat, who was doing homework in her chair, while Tori and Jade did theirs on the other couch. "Oh, Cat…" Cat looked to her loving boyfriend. "I have something for you."

Cat blinked innocently. "Yes?"

Andre took the bear from behind his back and smiled. "It's for you. I made it."

Cat gasped and stood up, walking up to him, taking the bear. "Aw, Andre, she's beautiful! Thank you!"

Andre smirked in victory, while Beck and Robbie gave each other a high-five. They won.

Cat looked around. "Um, but where's my cantaloupe?"

Scratch that. They lost.

Andre's jaw dropped. "Oh…crap…um, we must've forgotten."

Cat glared at him. "You forgot my cantaloupe?" She growled.

Andre, Beck, and Robbie took a step back in fear. "Whoa, whoa, whoa, Cat, let's not be freaking out here." Beck said, holding his hands up to protect himself.

Cat stomped her foot harshly on the ground. "GO GET MY CANTALOUPE!" She screamed.

"RUN, MEN, RUN!" Rex yelled as the boys rushed out the door, running to Beck's car, once again.

Cat let out a breath in annoyance and turned to her friends. "Why are men such idiots?"

Jade shrugged. "Heck if I know." And Tori nodded in agreement.

Preview for chapter 10:

The lady quickly opened the cash register and fumbled, but gave Jade the change. "Your food will be out in a-"

"Quit standing here talking to me and give me the damn burger!" Jade snapped again. "My best friend is pregnant and craving a Big Mac so I insist you give her what she wants!"

Tori raised an eyebrow. "Remind me never to hang out with you when I get married and get pregnant."

Jade scoffed. "Like I'd do this for you, Vega."
