Chapter 16: As If This Wasn't Awkward Enough
"Cecelia darling, are you alright in there?" Aina asked.
"I'm fine Aina. Just get me a few minutes." I replied throwing up again.
"Hurry dearie, we must finish your wedding gown before you wedding tomorrow."
"I'm coming!" I shouted. I flushed the toilet and got up to brush my teeth.
"CeCe, I'm coming in." Tinka whispered, walking inside the bathroom.
"Why can't I have some alone time too myself? Does everybody have to be on my back every 3 minutes of the day?"
"Boy, you're really grumpy today."
"You think Tinka? I feel like crap, I can't eat what I want to eat and when I do eat something I end up puking it up. On top of that, I haven't had my period in over a mouth. So yeah, I'm extremely bitchy today."
"Oh goody!" Tinka shouted in excitement.
I narrowed my eyes at her. "Okay, what part of bitchy today don't you understand?"
"Stay right here. Don't go anywhere." She said running out the bathroom.
"And they say I'm the loony-nutty." Six minutes later, Tinka walked inside the bathroom with a box in hand. "Okay, what is that?"
"This is a pregnancy test." She replied with a grin on her face.
"Woo, I am not pregnant. I can't be. Could I?" I chuckled to myself. "Even If I was pregnant it will still be too soon to tell."
"Don't be too sure of that. You were supposed to get your period sometime last month. Now it's August and your body is going through these changes."
"Tinka I'm glad that you're trying to help me, but I know my body. I am definitely not pregnant."
"Take the test and prove it to me."
"Fine I will." I said yanking the box out of her hand. "Uh Tinka, how do I use this thing?"
"You have to pee on the stick you nutty-nut ball. Call me when you're done." She laughed. Five minute later Tinka walks inside the bathroom again. "How's it going?"
"I peed on all 3 of these testes and they all say the same thing. I don't know what they mean." I replied with a very confused expression.
"Let me see." She said taking them from. "Positive, positive and positive! Yup, you're definitely pregnant."
"I can't be pregnant. I still got a whole life ahead of me."
"CeCe, you are almost a queen now and your duties are to take care of the kingdom."
"How can I take care of a kingdom barfing every hour of the day?"
"Plenty of them do, and don't worry that barfing will stop sooner or later. Any' who, lunch is ready. I'll see you downstairs."
Dear Diary, Why me? I know this is my life now and it was bound to happen. But I don't understand why it had to happen so soon? I love Gunther, my family and friends, especially my new life. I just wish god would've given me a little more time to enjoy myself and be a kid. Not too long ago I was only 17 and now I'm about to be someone mother. I don't even know if I'll be any good at that because I barely took care of myself. I know Gunther will be excited because he has another hair on the way. But for me, it's a tad bit overwhelming. We were supposed to go on our honey moon and now I don't know if I would be in the mood for that.
Please god make this pregnancy easy for me if Gunther knows what's good for him. I don't want to have to burry my husband before the baby gets here. By the way, that's sarcasm. I'm not really going to kill my husband. I need him in my life. Anyways, got to go. Lunch is calling me. Love always, CeCe.
"Hey everybody!" I yelled walking inside the dining room.
"Hey!" They replied.
"Here cookie, let me help you." Gunther said taking out the seat for me to sit in.
"Thank you honey." I told him. "What are we having for lunch today?"
"Where having a special lunch today and your favorite. Pork chops." Gunther replies.
"Yes, you guys are having pork chops. I'm having a tasty salad." Rocky said.
"You enjoy your salad while I enjoy my delicious fulfilling meal." I said taking a bit of my pork chop. Before I could get the food down my throat everything came back up. "I'm sorry I can't eat this."
"Little cookie what's wrong?" Gunther asked.
"The pork chops is not cooked all the way through."
"What are you talking about CeCe? The chef prepared the pork chops just the way you like them." Gunther explained.
"Well I'm not eating this, I'm sorry." I said pushing my plate away.
"Your highness, would you like some soup instead?" David asks.
"Yes please." I replied.
"Right away." He said walking towards the kitchen.
"CeCe are you alright? You worry me." Gunther asked.
"I'm fine Gunther." I replied.
"Liar…" Tinka smirked.
I glared at Tinka hoping she would shut up.
"Are you nervous about your wedding tomorrow CeCe?" Rocky asked.
"She better not be, I didn't come all the way out here for not." Deuce said.
Rocky glared, "Oh you didn't?"
"Of course I came out here for you too Rocky. I'm just talking in general." He said.
"She probably has cold feet." Ty said.
Tinka snorted, "This is far from that."
"I don't have cold feet guys and I'm definitely not nervous about tomorrow."
"Then what is it darling?" Gunther asked very concerned.
"Yes CeCe, why don't you tell him?" Tinka smiled.
"Your highness, your soup is ready." David said putting it down on the table.
"Thank you." I said slurping my soup. I felt eyes still staring at me so I looked up and everyone was still staring at me.
"Oh my god! What! Do I have pregnant tattoo on my forehead?!" I shouted.
Everybody's mouths open in shock. Except Tinka's of course.
"AHHH!" Rocky screamed in excitement. "I'm going to be an auntie!"
"I can't believe I'm going to be an uncle." Ty said with his mouth open.
"I wasn't expecting this." Deuce said.
Gunther stared at me not understand if he heard me correctly. "Did you just say you were?" I nodded. "Am I'm?" I nodded again. "And we?" I nodded once more. "Oh lord, I'm going to be a father." He said passing out on the floor.
"Oh my god! Gunther are you okay?" I asked leaning down next to him.
"Throw some water on him. He'll be alright." Ty said.
"I'll do it." Deuce said picking up his glass of water and throwing it on Gunther.
"AHHH! Why would you throw that on me?!" Gunther screamed.
"You were passed out on the floor man. What else was we supposed to do?" Ty asked.
"I don't know. Maybe wait for me to wake up." Gunther replied aggressively.
"That would've taking too long." Deuce said.
"CeCe, can we talk in private please?" Gunther asked.
"Yes, let's go to your room."
"When did you find out you were…you know?"
I chuckled, "Gunther I am not an alien. I'm pregnant okay."
"When did you find out you were pregnant?"
"A half hour ago. I wouldn't stop puking for the last week and Tinka suggested that I take a pregnancy test. Ten minutes later, all three of the pregnancy testes said positive."
"We should probably call a doctor and make an appointment to make sure."
"Yeah, that's a good idea."
"I'm sorry I got you pregnant."
"Don't be sorry. It was going to happen anyways. Maybe this is the right time."
"CeCe, no time is the right time. That's why we prepare for these types of situations."
"What do you mean by that Gunther?"
"Becoming parents is a big job. Lucky for us, we'll have a lot of help. I don't want to be one of those parents that don't be in their child life like that. If we're going to go through this where bring there for him."
"Wait, how do you know it's a he? It could be a girl for all you know."
"Trust me; it's going to be a boy or twins. Just saying."
"You man think you know everything."
"No we don't"
"Yes you do. "
"I'm not going to argue with you bay-bee."
"Then don't." I said about to talk out of his room.
"Where do you think you're going?" he asked pulling me on the bed.
I giggled, "Back downstairs."
"Does your parents that you are pregnant yet?"
"No, I'm actually kind of scared to tell my mother more than my father. He wanted this before he dies. My mother on the other hand wanted me to wait into I was ready."
"CeCe, we both will be ready for this I promise."
I smiled, "You and your promises."
"Do I ever let you down?"
I shook my head, "No you don't. You're the only one I could trust with keeping promises."
"Oh yeah, what about Rocky?"
"I can trust her too, but you're my husband. I trust you more than anybody."
"And your my wife, I trust you more than anyone too." he said kissing me.
Knock, knock! "Are you guys done talking yet?! I would like to speck with CeCe!" Rocky shouted.
"Just a second Rocky!" I shouted back.
"You would think they would give us ten more minutes." Gunther said.
"You don't know our friends very well."
"Let's ignore them and continue to snog."
"You read my mind." I said kissing him gently on the lips.
Mom and Dad, Gunther and I are having a baby." I said holding Gunther hand.
"Congratulations pumpkin, my wish is about to come true after all." Papa said hugging me.
"I may be too young to become a grandmother but I'm extremely happy for you." Mom said.
"When did you guys find out?" Papa asked.
"I found out this afternoon and broke the news to Gunther at lunch. You should've seen him. He fainted." I giggled.
"Very mature Cecelia." Gunther murmured.
"Anytime." I replied smiling.
"So what's the next move?" Mom asked.
"We were thinking about telling everybody after we come back from the honey-moon. It makes things easier that way." I explained.
"Okay, sounds good. Let's just try to have this baby before I die." Papa said.
"Daddy!" I yelled in surprise.
He laughed, "Just kidding darling. I was only kidding."
"Don't say things like that ever again."
"I won't." he replied.
"I can't wait to the baby shower. I am definitely throwing you the biggest baby shower ever." Tinka said in excitement.
"And I will be there to help you." Rocky said.
"You guys are great. But don't start planning now. I still have to see a doctor first." I told them.
"Please CeCe, The doctor will tell you the same thing I told you." Tinka said.
"I hope you are pregnant. There are so many things I'm going to teach her." Rocky said.
"And what if is a boy?" Tinka asked.
"That's when Deuce and Ty come in." Rocky said.
"You really want Deuce and Ty to be role models to my kid?" I asked her.
"Now that I think about it. No! Let Gunther handle that." She replied.
"Yes, my brother twin is the better choice. He is the baby's father." Tinka said.
"Anyways, you ready for your big day tomorrow?" Rocky asked.
"Yes I am. I have these butterflies in my stomach and I would like to get it over with already."
"Can you believe it's been two already and you're getting married?"
"It feels like more than that." I replied.
"That's because you're in love. When you're in love you don't realize these things." Tinka explained.
"Tinka, you believe in love at first sight?" Rocky asked.
"Of course I do. Don't you guys?" she replied.
"I do now." I said.
"I thought Deuce was weird at first and gross, but now I love him." Rocky said.
"When I first met Ty, he was different then the guys I normally date. I loved his swag. That's what made me fall in love with him." Tinka explained.
"I always thought Gunther was good looking even when I first met him. He was also slightly annoying at first, but I misunderstood him. Somehow I looked passed that and he's the love of my life. I've never been so happy before."
"AWWW." Tinka and Rocky groaned.
"Gunther what are you doing?" I asked.
"Nothing, just writing down a list."
"A list for what?"
"Things we may need when the baby arrives. By the way, I'm changing my room into the baby room since I already took over your father office."
"Okay, so where are you going to sleep?"
He corks his eyes brow at me, "I was opening you and I will share a bedroom."
"I don't think that's going to work. I like my privacy."
"You are joking right?"
"Yes I'm joking. Why wouldn't I want to share the same bed with my husband?"
"You tell me."
"Don't be silly Gunther. Of course you can share the same room as me."
"How sweet of you darling."
"You ready for tomorrow?"
"Yes. Are you?"
"Why wouldn't I be?"
"Just curious like you are." He smiled.
"Come lay down with me." I told him.
"I'm coming." He said laying down next to me.
"Feel my stomach."
"But isn't it too soon?"
"I just want you to feel it." I said putting his hand on top of it.
"It feels hard."
"Yeah, I didn't realize that before today." Gunther laid his head down on my stomach. "What are you doing?" I chuckled.
"I want to be closer to my kid. I wish I can hear his heart and feel him move. I'm going to be the happiest father ever."
"You will soon."
