"I don't want to go home." I whined as Matt and I began to finish our homework in the library.
"Why not?" Matt asked while looking up from his book.
"I'm not too pleased with Mr. Barakat." I said as I shut my book and sighed before resting my head on my hands.
"What did he do?"
"Got drunk with Alex last night, like really drunk. I had to bring him home."
Matt gave me a sympathetic look before reaching across the table to grab my hand. "Jack is stupid." Matt said and I nodded in agreement before pulling my hand away. Matt was nice but I didn't want him holding my hand. He was my boyfriend's best friend and I didn't want him to get any ideas from it.
"Well I have to go, I told May that we could watch some movies tonight." I said when the silence between us started to get awkward and Matt nodded.
"Alright, I'll see you later." Matt said standing up and walking out. I sighed as I pulled on my jacket and my beanie before shoving all my books into my bag. I knew Jack would be home and I didn't really want to see him but I couldn't ditch May because Jack was a dick.
When I got home I dumped my bag upstairs before walking down the hall to May's room. "Hey, how was your day?" I asked as I sprawled across the bottom of May's bed.
"Wonderful. I went shopping with my mom. How was your day sweetie?"
"Ugh, long. I got all my homework done though so I don't have to worry." I said as I looked up at May.
"That's good. How's my nephew?" May questioned as she reached her hand over and rested it on my stomach. As soon as her hand touched my stomach it felt like it was filled with butterflies.
"May, I think the baby just moved!" I said looking at her and she grinned.
"Really?" she squealed as she pressed gently trying to get him to move again. Again I felt the butterfly feeling and I nodded.
"I think it's him!" I said.
"You think what is him?" Jack asked as he appeared in the doorway. I was so excited about feeling the baby move for the first time that I completely forgot about being mad at Jack.
"The baby! I felt him move!" I squealed as I threw my arms around Jack's neck.
"That's great." Jack said squeezing me to his body and he looked down at me. We stared at each other for a moment before Jack slowly leaned down and pressed his lips against mine. "I'm sorry baby." he said into my ear softly and I leaned against him.
"It's okay. I forgive you." I said and he kissed the side of my head.
"Good, I thought I was going to have to beg. I couldn't not sleep with you again tonight." Jack said and I nodded in agreement.
"I had issues sleeping without you too." I said and Jack chuckled.
"Come on, let's go to bed now." he said trying to pull me out of the room but I stopped.
"May and I have plans." I said when he looked down at me and Jack jutted out his bottom lip in a pout.
"But you love me more!"
"That's debatable Jacky, I don't drive her crazy." May said coming around me and wrapping her arm around my shoulders.
"We're gonna go watch chick flicks. I'll come up to bed later. Don't mess up my room and don't eat anything in my bed." I said sternly before letting May lead me down the stairs.
"Why don't you just move into Jack's room again? You guys sleep together every night anyways." May pointed out as we walked down the stairs.
"If I have my own room then I can avoid him or I can banish him if he decides to behave like he did last night. Plus I don't want to clean up after him too." I explained as I sat on the couch and May started to rummage around for movies.
"Yeah but if you guys share then you can just boot him to the couch when he misbehaves! And whip him into shape; he can't have a messy room when he has a baby." May said as she popped a movie in and then walked into the kitchen.
I pushed myself off of the couch and followed her. "I don't know, why do you want me in his room so bad?" I asked as I watched her stick popcorn in the microwave.
"I don't want you in his room. It's just we can always use the guest room as a room for the baby if you and Jack share."
"Oh, well I don't know if I'll still be here when the baby is born." I said and May looked up quickly.
"No! You can't move out! I'll miss you." she said wrapping her arms around me and I laughed.
"I know, I would miss you too but I feel like a burden here."
"You are not a burden Josie, I don't know how many times I must tell you that but you aren't. We love you, we want you here."
"I know and I love you guys too but I just hate depending on others."
"Sometimes you need to let people help you Josie." May told me before pouring the popcorn in the bowl.
"I do let people help me. It's just hard; I'm used to doing everything by myself."
"Well get used to help. I'll be taking my nephew a lot." she said and I giggled.
"It's nice to know we have someone to babysit if we ever just want to escape for the night."
"Always. I love him already." May told me as we walked into the living room. After pressing play we sat down with the popcorn between us. "So are you and Jack thinking about any names?" May asked and I shook my head.
"We've tossed a few around but we haven't seriously talked about any."
"Oh, well you guys need to start thinking. The baby is due in four months."
"I know, I just don't really have any ideas and as far as I know, neither does Jack."
"You still awake?" Josie questioned as she walked into the dark room.
"Yeah, come here." I said holding up the blanket. I watched her strip off her clothes and replace them with pajamas before crawling in next to me.
"So May and I were talking. She uh, thinks that I should move into your room with you." Josie told me.
"That would be great, I'll start cleaning out my closet for you tomorrow." I said as put my arm around Josie and let my hand rest on her belly.
"Yeah and she said we needed to start thinking about names too. She's right you know." Josie said and I nodded.
"I know, is there any name you really like?" I asked and she rolled over so she was on her back and looking up at me.
"I don't know, what about you?" she questioned and I chewed on my lip as I thought for a moment.
"What about Jordan…? Or Jackson?" I asked and Josie wrinkled her nose.
"No, no more Js."
"What! Why?"
"Because there's already too many Js."
"What do you mean? We don't have any kids!"
"Not our kids but my family! James, Josie, Joshua. My parents are James and Jill. You're Jack. Josie, Jack and Jordan or Jackson, that's just too many Js."
"Okay fine, you're right but then what?" I inquired as I twirled a piece of her hair around my finger.
"I don't know yet Jack but we have time. We have until July."
"It's March Josie; it's not that much time."
"It'll come to us. I promise. Just don't worry about it, I know I'm not. I have a lot of other stuff to worry about." she said and as I looked down at her in the dark I could barely make out her face but I could tell she was stressed.
"What's wrong?" I asked as I soothingly ran my fingers through her hair.
"Just school." Josie told me but I knew she wasn't telling me the complete story.
"What else is it?"
"It's just….I don't know Jack. I feel like a giant pain for your family and then my dad's birthday is coming up and I still haven't told my family about the baby."
"Look Josie, you're not a pain. Everyone here loves you, you're like the sister May always wanted and you're like another daughter to my parents. And you're just a wonderful girlfriend, don't worry about that. Hell you're gonna have to put up a fight if you want to move out, there's no way my mom or May are gonna wanna let you go." I told her before kissing her nose.
"Thanks Jack, you're a wonderful boyfriend even if you're a butthead."
"I'm your butthead though. And the whole thing with your family, you need to tell them Josie. How about tomorrow you call your mom and tell her? They need to know Josie and if they freak out then let them freak out. You're their daughter, how could they not love you?"
"Jack, you don't understand."
"Then explain it to me!" I said suddenly feeling frustrated.
"They're so strict. And then with what my aunt said! They're gonna freak and disown me." she said pitifully and I sighed before resting my forehead against hers.
"Then let them. They're the ones missing out, not only on you but they're missing out on being in their grandson's life. Isn't he their first grandson?"
"Yes but-" Josie went to protest but I cut her off by placing my finger to her lips.
"No, they're not gonna wanna miss out on his life. No one is that heartless." I said while pulling my finger away sharply before Josie could bite it. "Come on, let's just forget all this and go to bed." I said and Josie scrunched up her nose.
"I'm not in the mood to sleep." she said as she pushed me onto my back and straddled my hips.
"Are you serious right now?" I questioned feeling excited. We hadn't had sex since the night before Josie told me she was pregnant so many months ago.
"Yes, I'm serious." she said as she leaned down and pressed her lips to mine. I quickly deepened the kiss and sucked on her tongue causing her to moan into my mouth. "We have to be careful." she said once she pulled away.
"Why?" I questioned.
"The baby dummy." Josie said and I looked down at her belly and then back up at her.
"What if my dick is in his face?" I asked nervously as Josie started giggling.
"Jack, your dick won't be in his face."
"But what if it is? I don't want him to see that!"
"Jack, I promise you, your dick won't be in his face." Josie said as she giggled. I stared at her for a moment to make sure she was telling the truth and once I was positive she was I kissed her again. I rolled her onto her back was I hovering over her but she pushed me away firmly.
"What?"
"The baby Jack, you can't lean on my stomach."
"Ugh, okay. Uhm, come here." I said pulling her back onto me. A couple minutes later we were beginning to strip off clothes when Josie stopped. "What's the matter?"
"It's just, I've gained a lot of weight." she said softly and I frowned.
"No you haven't."
"I have, I'm fat."
"No, you're beautiful." I insisted as I stroked the side of her face. Josie frowned and I kissed her deeply. "You're beautiful." I said again before I slowly began to inch her shirt up. She let me pull it off and my eyes widened when I saw her breasts. They had gotten at least a cup size bigger since the last time I had seen her naked. My hands went to them instantly but she pulled away with a sharp hiss of pain.
"Jack they're sore. You have to be careful." Josie said and I nodded as I tried to gently touch them but she winced in pain. "Ugh, this is no fun." she said before lying on her back beside me.
"So does this mean no sex?"
"Yes. I'm going to bed." she growled before rolling over onto her side and pulling the blanket over her. I watched her for a moment, expecting her to say just kidding and get back to doing it but she didn't and I groaned. Now I was stuck with a hard on and an asleep girlfriend, well wasn't that just wonderful?
