To Make Me Happy
Ch.14: Shock
Miranda and Dentwood sat in shocked silence. The doctor had just left the room to give the young couple time to take in the news. Finally, Dentwood turned to Miranda.
"Were going to have a baby." Miranda just nodded her head. He spoke up again. "Were going to be parents." Her head once again bobbed up and down. There was a long moment of silence before Dentwood heard a loud shriek coming from his wife. His head jerked over.
The site that met his eyes was unexpected. Miranda with a huge grin on her face and a tear rolling down her cheek.
"What's wrong?" She shook her head.
"I just can't believe it. I'm going to be a mom." Dentwood couldn't tell if his young wife was on the border of hysterics or happiness, so he wrapped his arms around her and cradled her head to his chest.
"You'll be a wonderful mom. I know it." He felt Miranda start to shake and he could hear sniffles.
"But I'm so scared I'll turn out like my mother. She was so horrible. I don't want to be like that."
"You won't honey. I promise." Miranda smiled at this little pet name Dentwood had taken to calling her. It made her feel special and wanted. He stroked her hair and kissed the top of her head. She snuggled closer to his chest and they just sat there for a moment. Finally, Miranda heard her husband start to speak softly.
"What's that?" she asked. Dentwood lifted his head.
"I said I love you." Miranda looked up at him and gave him a beaming smile. She knew she was in love with him and she knew he loved her, but he had never said it before. And now her heart was positively bursting with love.
"I love you to." she whispered. Dentwood smiled a smile so huge Miranda thought his face would crack. He leaned down and kissed her. A long passionate kiss to show her just how much he loved her.

At the moment, Miranda and Dentwood sat Seylin and Emily's rooms. They were going to break the news to them. Miranda's hands were shaking and fidgeting in anticipation. Dentwood looked over and saw this. He smiled lightly before grabbing her hands in his, ending the fidgeting immediately.
She smiled nervously at him and looked back at her in-laws. They sat still, waiting for the news.
"Well," Dentwood began, "You are to be grandparents soon." Emily and Seylin sat in shocked silence for a moment. Half a second later Emily's face broke into a huge grin.
"Your having a baby?" The young couple nodded their heads in unison. As a smile began spreading across Seylin's face, his energetic wife jumped up and ran to wrap her children in a warm hug.
"I'm so happy for the both of you!" she cried. The better part of the day was then spent planning for the coming baby. Everyone was excited. And Emily and Seylin couldn't help but to notice all the loving glances passed between the young couple.
END CHAPTER
I am so so so sorry for the very very very long wait. And the short chapter. I just wanted to hurry and get something out.
It's been very hectic this school year. Lot's of band activities and stuff going on. And one of my best friends attempted suicide a couple of weeks ago. I've been pretty upset and distracted lately. But with good reason of course. I haven't seen her in weeks now. So I'm sorry. I'm trying to get back on track now.
I hope you enjoy and I'll try to get the next chapter out much sooner. But no promises. So pretty please could you find it in your hearts to review and cheer me up a bit? Pretty please?
