Ian's POV
I could just stare at her for hours; she always looked so peaceful, except when she hadn't. It was almost too painful to think about, to know that I had caused her so much pain. It was the first night that we had moved back in together since the accident. We were both really nervous. It was nerve wrecking to think about it, but I was also really excited. I am going to be a father. I don't really care what it is as long as they look like Wanda. I haven't been able to sleep, that much, especially after the dream. I wonder what it meant. I feel like my mind is trying to tell me something but I don't know what it is.
I wake up to the sound of Wanda's voice, but she is still not awake. She is mumbling something, but I don't really know what it is. I lean in closer to try to listen but she feels my movement and starts to move, so I go back. She is smiling. She must be having a really good dream. I wonder what it is about. I hope it is about me.
I'm walking in the caves, I see Wanda, looking as angelic as ever. She is running through the corridors. I am worried about her, you can see her big belly from the pregnancy. I tell her to stop, but she continues, just running and laughing. She looks so happy that I almost die from happiness. I run up to her to catch her, and I hear her laughing, and she says, "Stop it Ian, you're tickling me."
"Oh yeah?" I say, and I grab her. She automatically leans into my body. It feels so great. But then, out of nowhere, she disappears.
I stand there for a hours waiting for her to come back, but she doesn't. Yet again I am too late.
When I wake up again Wanda is still sleeping, I feel so tired, but I can't shake the dreams I been having, not anymore. It is always the same. I always loose her. I wonder why. It is so horrible. I never want to sleep again, it always feels so real, I feel the pain when I wake up. For some reason, I can't stay awake. I am so tired, but I have to fight it if I don't, I will just see it again, and again.
I am walking in the street, holding hands with Wanda, completely unafraid. Then suddenly I am in the middle of the sea, on a big boat. It's raining and everybody around me is rushing, I don't see anyone I recognize. I am panicking, then I see where everybody is going. They are trying to save someone who has gone overboard. I look and see that it is Wanda. She sees me and her eyes are filled with pain. I jump overboard to try to save her but I never reach the water. Instead I find myself alone, on the same street I had walked with Wanda, crying.
It hurts so much, I lost her, and this time I know it's real. She is never coming back, I don't even know where she went. The street starts to clear again, and then I see her. I run toward her.
"Wanda, what happened?" I ask, too afraid to touch her for fear that she might disappear.
"You were too late." She says and the look on her face breaks my heart. I can't stand to see her like that. I finally see that she has a baby in her arms. She sees me looking and says, "This is our son, isn't he beautiful?"
I only manage to nod, I am too filled with emotion. I can't stop myself, I stretch out my hands to hold my son. This was the happiest moment of my life, but before i can touch him, he and Wanda start to fade away.
"Wanda?" I say. I can feel my heart beating really fast and my heart hurts. I'm drenched in sweat, but then I look over and see that Wanda isn't there. Was the dream I had had real? Is she really gone? I feel the sadness fill me again. I think that I am slowly dying. Then I hear her voice.
"Ian, you're ok! I was so worried, I went to call Doc. They came to call us, but you didn't wake up. I tried shaking you, but nothing. You felt all cold, but you were sweating. It didn't make sense. I thought you were sick." She says, her voice breaking on the last part.
Yet again, the look on her face killed me. I didn't know what to do so I opened my arms so she could come lie with me, but that was when I saw Doc.
"Not so fast," he said. "Let me check my patient." He took my blood pressure and made sure I was breathing alright.
"Wanda can you go get him some food please?"He said, but it sounded like he just wanted to get her out of the room.
As soon as she left the room I started to feel sad.
"What's going on, Ian? You have us all really worried."
"Nothing, I'm fine. You know how Wanda is." I said laughing at the last part, not really believing myself. He didn't either
"Why are you having nightmares?"
"How did you know?"
"The sweating, you're disorientation when we first came in. And you look like you haven't slept in days, even though it is almost ten in the morning."
Knowing I had to admit it I told him everything, since when Wanda told me she was pregnant to the dreams and how much it hurt every time I went to sleep, especially today when I woke up, and she wasn't there anymore. It just all sucked so bad, I didn't know what to do. Through this all he just sat there listing. Doc was just so amazing sometimes.
"Have you told Wanda?"
"No, not yet." I said feeling guilty. "I don't want to worry her."
"She should, know Ian. She might be able to help you, more than you know."
"Help with what?" Wanda said as she came in with the biggest tray of food I had ever seen. I was surprised she didn't tip over from all the weight. It took most of my strength to stifle my laugh.
"Ian, will tell you." Doc says as he is standing up to leave. "Make sure he eats, I'll come back to check on you later."
"What's going on Ian, are you ok?" She says as she puts the food down.
"Come here." I tell her as I open my arms, I just really wanted to hold her, and make sure she was really ok.
"But Doc said you should it."
"I will eat, I just want to talk to you first ok?" I say but don't let her answer. "First of all," I say as he settles on my lap, "I want to tell you that I will always love you no matter what. And that I am so excited that we are having a baby. I'm so sorry for making you feel bad. I was just nervous and slow, but finding out made me happier than I have ever been in my entire life."
"No, Ian I'm sorry too. I completely over reacted. I should have let you react. I was just really scared that you wouldn't want me anymore, and that you wouldn't want our baby."
"Why would you think that? You should know how much I love you, and that that will never change."
A beautiful blush starts to cover her face as she say, "I know, I love you more than anything else." She leans even closer, I could stay like this forever.
But then I remember what I have to tell her. I kind of don't want to, it hurts too much to even think about, and what do I tell her anyways? That I keep having a dream, in which she tells me that I am too late to save her?
"What are you thinking about?" It always surprise me how well she knows me.
I really don't want to tell her, I don't know why, but it's always when you don't want to do something that you should do it.
"I had a dream and we were walking holding hands. Then I am on a boat, and it's raining and everybody around me is screaming. I see them all rushing to one side of the boat so I go see what is going on. Then I see a person in the water and I saw her face and it was you. I jumped into the water, but then I am back on the street we were on, but you aren't there anymore. You are at the end of the street. I asked you what happened, and you just told me that I was too late."
Wanda frowns at this, and she looks like she is thinking about something very hard. I want to ask her what but I know that if I stop know I'll never continue.
"Then I notice that the whole time you were holding a bay in your arms. He was adorable. He looked just like you." I say with a smile, and she smiles back. "But when I try to hold him, you just disappear." I say tears are running down my face, I don't know why it hurts so much, maybe because it felt so real.
"Oh, Ian. I'm sorry." She says as she starts cleaning the tears from my face. Her touch is so gentle and smooth that it immediately calms me down. Why is she apologizing, she has nothing to be sorry for. I'm about to ask her but she continues talking.
"I didn't know, you were having bad dreams, but if anything was to happen to me. It wouldn't be your fault. I want you to know that." It surprises me when she says this. It sounds like she already knows that something will happen.
"Is something going to happen?" I ask genuinely worried.
"No, don't worry." She says with a smile, but I'm not too sure.
Wanda's POV
It feels like the best day. I am outside in the mountains, and it is raining, but it is still amazing. I sit on a blanket kept dry by the big tress that surrounded us. It is euphoric. I am sitting next to a man but I can't see his face. I could see that he had freckles though, lots of them. He stretches out his hand and I put my hand in his he automatically squeezes it, as if to let me know that he is there and will never go anywhere. We both lie down and just look up at the sky and leaves, and sigh. Nothing could be better than this.
When I hear somebody say, "Mama, look! I got you a present!"
It was a little boy. He looked so happy, it was almost contagious. He has blonde hair, its long and curly. He rushes to me and hugs me, crushing the flowers.
"Oops!" He says and he gets all sad. "I messed up your present." His lips get all pouty and he starts crying.
"It's ok! These are the most beautiful flowers I have ever gotten in my entire life! Thank you!" I say and hug him even tighter.
Then I feel someone pull me closer. I look up and I see that it is Burns, and I just feel my feel my heart swell even more. This is so perfect.
"You were having a good dream." Ian says. He looks a lot more rested than he did yesterday and for that I am thankful.
"What do you mean?" I asked, being seriously confused.
"You were all smiles while you were sleeping. It was kind of creepy." He says with a smile, as he starts playing with my hair.
"I don't really remember the dream, it's more of the feeling. I was outside sitting under some trees, and something about it felt so perfect, but i don't know why."
"Interesting. Tell me if you remember?"
"Promise. We should get going soon, they want us in the fields today." I say and Ian just stands still.
"You can't work in the fields Wanda, you're pregnant." He says, sounding kind of worried.
It kind of bugs me how no one thinks I can do anything. They all think that I am really fragile. I'm actually really looking forward to today. I finally get to do something, we stayed in the room all yesterday talking about what had happened.
"It's ok. I'm not that pregnant, and plus we haven't told anyone yet, and if Jeb moved me it would look suspicious." I say knowing that I had already won this one. I have never been competitive, but it feels good to win.
Mel's POV
Every morning since I told Jared that I was pregnant I have woken up with food and the question, are you ok? The first one I could get used to, but the second one was seriously annoying.
"Are you ok?"
"Yes, I'm ok, and you need to stop asking me that, or I'm going to go sleep in Wanda's room. How do you think they are doing anyways?" I ask I hadn't see Wanda all yesterday, Doc told me to give her and Ian some privacy.
"I think so. They are working in the fields with us today. Although I might ask Jeb to switch you guys out, I don't want you to work too hard." He says, although we already talked about how I would work in the fields as long as I could.
As we leave the room I see Wanda and Ian ahead of us.
"Wanda!" I yell, and she turns around and we run towards each other. Ian waits for Jared to catch up and they keep walking.
"How are you? I haven't seen you in forever. I missed you so much!"
"It was only a day, but it felt like forever right? I missed you so much too! How are you and Ian?" I say and she gets a little sad.
"Ok, but he has been having nightmares. He thinks something is going to happen to me, but I don't know why. Other than that I am ok. How about you?"
"Ok, except Jared keeps asking me if I am ok. He is driving me crazy!" I say but I smile.
"He just cares about you, and plus you know you kind of like it."
"Yeah, whatever." I say knowing that what she said was true. "I told Jared that if he didn't stop i was going to sleep in your room. So I might show up at your door one of these days."
We ate breakfast and worked in the field all day, it felt great to feel my muscles work. It made me a little sad to think that in a few months I wouldn't be able to this, but then I remembered why, and it made me so happy that it didn't even matter.
I was so excited. I was going to be a mom. I hope I'll be a good mom. Jared was going to be a Dad, he was going to be a great Father, I already knew it. He was so happy when I told him, that it made everything so much better. I always imagined us having children, even in the world that we live in. Jared wasn't so sure, I can't say that I blame him. Our children will never get to go outside, or ride a roller coaster. Go to school, and make new friends, or make fun of the teacher. It kind of makes me sad that no matter how much I try, my children won't have the childhood I had, while it lasted anyways.
What will happen to my children after I die? I guess Wanda can take care of them, if she decides to change hosts that is. Will our children be best friends? I hope so. It would make everything so fun.
We still haven't told people that we are pregnant, I wonder how thy will react. I think that it is going to be more difficult for Ian and Wanda that it will be for us. I hope people won't get angry. Things were going so well, I hope that doesn't change.
I was walking to the kitchen to eat when I heard loud voices. I didn't recognize some of them. This scared me what if the souls found out we were here, and that's them coming to get us?
What did you guys think? Please review! I will start working on the new chapter tomorrow so it should be up soon. Thanks for the patience!
