Chapter forty-one

Ammy's POV

I look around the hospital room, my eyes staring at every wall, almost as if I could sense that they were staring right back at me. Today is the day when we're going to see if I can cross over into the no man's land so that I can kill this woman, whom I have seen very recently. At the second the Doctor has gone off to fetch this specific pregnancy test that will tell me if I am pregnant or not. Apparently it is so sensitive that it can detect the pregnancy hormone only days after conception, it's some sort of invention the Angels made a few years back, although how they managed it I have no clue because I didn't think pregnancy could be detected until like ten days after conception. But then again, Angel's bodies do work slightly different to human bodies, so it could be possible to detect my pregnancy much earlier than I originally expected. And let me tell you I really hope I am pregnant, Alec and I made sure that we got married just as I was starting my ovulation period, so hopefully we have successfully conceived our child, which means I have passed all three acts of purity.

"Has Isaac contacted you since the reception?" Alec asks out of nowhere, completely baffling me. Out of all the questions he could have asked at this present moment he decides to ask me that?

"Yes, he phoned me this morning to wish us luck" I admit, his eyes meeting mind briefly before he sighs as he licks his lips.

"He loves you" it was more of a statement than anything else, although I swear to God I could hear a hint of jealousy in his voice. But what I don't understand is why this is coming up now.

"I'm not going to lie to you, he does love me"

"Do you love him?"

"What type of question is that? Of course I don't love him, I'm with you. How can you even think that I would love him? He hurt me so much growing up that I just couldn't love him, the thought alone sickened me. It's you I love, it has always been you and it always will be. I married you, I will hopefully be having a child with you not with him" I snap at Alec, my anger rising over the fact that he would even think that I loved Isaac when I don't.

"Why are you even asking these questions? We are about to find out if I am carrying your child, and if I am, I'll be taking drinking that concoction in order to take me to that other world just so I can kill some psycho bitch, and yet here you are, asking me if I love another man only days after we have gotten married"

"Ammy, I...I don't know...I'm sorry, I guess I'm just worried and stressed so I start to doubt. I know I shouldn't, I know how much you love me, and I definitely know how much I love you, but...I'm just being stupid" he shakes his head before looking up at the ceiling.

"I love you with all my heart, I don't think I could live without you to be honest. I have never felt something as strong as what I feel for you before, and it still scares me now. But I love you nonetheless, that will never change. I know times are hard right now, what with so much responsibility being thrown at us and then there is the situation you are being left in. I can only imagine how overwhelmed you must feel, and I know all I have been doing is piling even more crap onto your plate. I apologise for that. I don't mean to..." by the time I've finished speaking my voice is no louder than a whisper and I have tears welling up in my eyes.

"Ammy, it's not your fault. It's me, I'm just being stupid, I'm worried and...God, I'm so sorry. I'm being an asshole, I know you don't love him, I know you love me. I'm just being a twat, I love you so much. Please forgive me" he begs me, coming over to the bed where he sits next to me, his hands taking hold of mine.

"I forgive you, I know this is a tough time" I assure him as I rub his arm soothingly, the doctor coming into the room with a pregnancy test stick in his hand.

"All you need to do is urinate on it" the doctor states as he chucks it over to me. I have never met such an unprofessional doctor, but my God did he makes me laugh.

Eric's POV

"Lover, I want us to marry as soon as this is all over. As soon as our daughter has dealt with everything we will all go back to Sweden and me and you shall marry, I already have Pam on the job of booking all the venues, she is even going to be coming round to take you dress shopping" I grin at her as I walk into the room, shoving my phone into my pocket.

"When is she coming round?"

"In about ten minutes" I inform her, she needs to prepare for when we marry and she might as well go and do it tonight. That way she will not cloud her mind with negative thoughts about our daughter's mission, I am only trying to make her happy and keep her mind clear. I do not want her becoming worried and stressed over Ammy, it is not good for her or our baby; I shall take on both of our worries and stress, I just want her to go and enjoy her night.

"Eric, that is completely unreasonable. How could you arrange all this behind my back? What about the twins? Who will look after them, because I know for a fact you can't. You're at Fangtasia tonight!" she points out, anger rising in her.

"I can and will look after them. They can come with me, I am not spending the night in the bar area, I will be in my office for most of it doing paperwork, I am sure they can join me and do their homework at the same time. And when they are done they can draw, read, dress-up or do whatever they want as long as they stay in the room. They will be safe don't worry. You go out and have fun, take your mind off of things. Go have a girl night out and find a beautiful dress for yourself ready for when we marry. Pam is even inviting your other friend, Amelia" I tell her, Sookie sighing before she smiles at me.

"Thank you" she gets up from the sofa and hugs me, placing a light kiss on my lips.

"You're worth it all, the money for your dress is on this" I pass her a cash card, Sookie looking at it before she looks at me.

"Eric, how much is on here?" she asks cautiously, she knows what I am like. She has probably already guessed that there will be more than necessary on there.

"I will let you find out on your own" I grin at her, little does she know there is actually $20,000 on there.

"Eric..." she narrows her eyes at me.

"I love you"

"I love you,too" she gives in with a small grin, causing me to chuckle lightly before I kiss her softly.

"Oh, I need to take Annika with me, I need to get her dress sorted" Sookie reminds me just as Annika walks into the room.

"What have I done?" she asks worriedly, looking between us.

"Nothing, you have done nothing, Princess. Mommy just wants to take you shopping for a flower girl dress. You do want to be a flower girl for mommy and daddy's wedding, don't you?" I ask her as I kneel down in front of her.

"Yeah!" she grins as she jumps up and down on the spot practically.

"You better go get your shoes and coat on then" I motion my head towards the hallway, Annika nodding quickly before she rushes off to get ready.

"You're great with the children, and I'm sure you'll just be as good with our baby when he or she is born" Sookie smiles at me as she comes to stand in front of me, my hands coming to rest on her baby bump.

"And you are and will be a great mother" I assure her with a small grin as Zach walks into the room.

"Dad, am I going to work with you?"

"Yes, son, you are"

"Does that mean I can boss Aunt Pam about?" he grins at me, making me chuckle as I nod my head.

"Unfortunately, no, Aunt Pam is going with your mom and sister shopping, but if you like you can boss around the rest of my staff" I grin at him, Zach grinning straight back before he runs off to get ready.

"He has the same smile as you" Sookie points out as her eyes meet mine.

"Go on, you two have fun" I tell her just as the doorbell goes, the bond already telling me that it is Pam.

"I'll see you later, I love you" she calls out as her and Annika leave, Zach coming into the room to join me.

"Come on, dad, let;s go" it is good to see my son so eager to leave. He is definitely a young entrepreneur.
