Unexpected

Chapter 20

Waking up that morning Sasha couldn’t help but feel free in a way. Everything was right, laying there in Lukes arms was just the way she wanted to start the day. She turned her head and gave him a light kiss, causing him to wake up.

”Morning beautiful” He said not opening his eyes yet.

”Morning” She smiled.

They just laid there smiling until Sasha shut right up from the bed. ”It’s morning.”

”Yeah.. and?” Luke didn’t seem to see the negative in that.

”You are still here” She turned to look at him.

”Well yes I’m not going anywhere babe.” He kissed her back, making her moan lightly at the touch of his lips on her skin.

”I know that but no you are still here in my bed in my room with our parents down the hall!!” She screamed in a low voice and he shot out of the bed within a second of registering what she had said.

”Shit.. didn’t really think about that part.” He said as he stood there looking at her in panic.

”Well.. not that I don’t love having you here but I would like to be able to continue this some other time but we might be killed by my mom if you don’t leave.” She stated the obvious.

”But how am I supposed to be able to leave you.. looking like that?” He started playing their night together in his head looking at her sitting with the comforter half covering her front.

”Willpower Wilson. Willpower.” She said with a wink.

Melody was walking back and forth in her kitchen with Monica sitting in on a chair drinking a cup of coffee.

”Sit down Melody, all this stress isn’t good for the baby.” Her mother said, pulling a chair out for her.

”Well sorry if my boyfriends parents are... so mean.” She tried to come up with a really bad word but mean was the best she could come up with.

”Wow mean? I was thinking of something worse coming from you and the hormones.” Her mother laughed at her daughter’s turnaround in bad words.

”Seriously? That’s what you’re gonna say about those trolls?” This didn’t help Monica to stop laughing.

”Well you can’t do anything than give them time, it’s not such an easy thing to deal with you know. And really Melody, trolls?” Her mother smiled but did her best not to start laughing again.

”I guess you’re right. I still can’t understand that you are so cool with all of this.” Mel finally sat down.

”I’m not cool with it, as you put it but it’s not like me yelling at you will change the fact that I’m gonna be a grandmother.” Monica made a face at the word grandmother, like it sounded weird to her.

”That’s true, but why can’t Alice and Josh just not push about this whole marriage thing? I just can’t see myself married in high school you know.” Mel said and played with her fingers while talking.

”Well I didn’t see you pregnant in high school either but here we are.”

”So you think we should get married?” She looked up at her mother, hoping she could give her an answer and just tell her what to do.

”I’m not saying that, I’m just saying that it’s not my decision or Alice’s. It’s your choice and you have to figure out what you want and then you need to talk to Liam and figure out what you both want. I mean you can’t erase the fact that you are gonna be holding your baby in your arms in about seven to eight months.”

”I know.. I really love him and I don’t really see this baby as a mistake, more of a possibility. And I don’t need a husband to make the best of that, I just need to know that he’ll be there through all of this.”

”And you think he will? Be there for you I mean.”

”Well he may not have had the best first reaction but he came around and he loves me. I can’t see this going any other way than him by my side.”

”Great, speaking of him.. Where is he? We have to leave for the doctors any minute now.”

As if on que Liam walked through the door asking if they were ready to go. Monica just gave her a happy smile before they walked out of the house.

Sasha and Luke were sitting across from eachother at the breakfast table with their parents on the other ends of it. They kept giving eachother looks now and then but still trying to hide it from their parents. Laura was talking on and on about the wedding and what was left to be done while Paul was quietly sipping his morning coffee.

”So what do you think Sasha? Earth to Sasha?” Hearing her name being called by her mother dragged her back to reality.

”Huh? Oh sorry mom.”

”Did you even listen to a word I was saying?” her mom was half irritated and half amused. 

”Sorry,  I spaced out when you came around to the centerpieces.” She answered, making the guys try their best to hold back laughter at Laura's manic behaviour. 

”That was like forever ago!” she raised her voice ä, ignoring the guys failed attempts. 

”Sorry but you’ve been talking about the wedding for the past three days and I’m kind of sick of it.” She looked at her mother and saw the hurt on her face. ”Not like that, more that it’s all wedding, all the time and I have other stuff in my life than this wedding, not that I’m not looking forward to it.” she did her best to explain and to save herself for a momabear shout. 

”Are you sure? You can talk to me about anything, you know that right?” her mother's expression made a complete 180 turn. 

”I know that mom. It’s just school, all the music things and then the wedding on top of that. It’s just a lot right now.” She didn't lie, she just didn't give her the main reason for spacing out.. Luke. 

”I get that honey, I’m sorry. Maybe you should cool it with the music until after graduation?” Laura tried, not wanting school to suffer. 

”I can’t mom, I don’t want to either. Mike is talking about a tour starting a couple of weeks after the wedding and I can’t turn that down. It’s my dream, it’s what I want.” She got defensive. 

”I just don’t want you to over do it honey, I worry about you.”

”I know but I’m okay, really I just can’t do all of the wedding things at the moment. Sorry.” She said and stood up from the table and walked upstairs towards her room to get ready for school. Laura looked at her daughter with concern as she climbed the staircase. Maybe this was all too much for her, maybe this wedding was too much for her. Maybe all of this is just too much for all of us. Laura thought to herself. 

Sasha closed the door to her room and sat down at her makeup table and started brushing her hair. How could this day take such a wrong turn so fast. This morning everything was so great and now.. I don’t even know why we started fighting or whatever that was. Sasha thought as she brushed her hair. Her phone started ringing and she was happy by the name on the screen.

”Hey what did the doctor say?” she said once she answered the call. 

”Well hello. No, I’m fine. Thanks for asking.” Mel answered sarcastically. 

”Sorry, weird morning but then again asking what doc had to say is like asking how you’re doing.” she tried and after a second she knew she had won. 

”Yeah.. maybe. Anyways, everything is fine and growing in just the right speed and it has a perfect little heartbeat.” Sasha could practically hear Melody's smile as she talked about the little person growing inside her. 

”Aaw, when can you know the s*x?” Sasha asked. 

”Not until another month or so but I’m not sure if I wanna know, letting it be a surprise sounds kind of good at the moment.”

”Like any of our lives are so boring that you need more surprises?” Sasha asked, laughing.

”That is true though.. I’ll think about it. It’s a long time until we can know anyway so there's no need to decide right now."

”Exactly, no need to add to the drama that is our lives.”

”Okay why do you sound so grumpy I thought that after yesterday's love song, things would be on clouds all day.”

”It started out soooo good, waking up with his arms around me was too good of a feeling that I wanna do it again and again and again and again.”

”I got the picture, but what changed if it was so perfect?”

”I don’t know what happened at breakfast but I think that my mom and I got in a fight about the wedding and my career.”

”Wow, you guys never fight. Wait, you think she knows and just want to make you realize that they are getting married and that you and Luke will have to break up or something?”

”Okay you are no help, now I’m more nervous about why we fought than I was before. I had never thought about it like that. But I don’t think she knows, I mean how can she? We’ve been so careful. Okay maybe not last night and this morning but if she knew I think she would do some sort of yelling and grounding for sure.”

”That might be true..anyway tell me everything about last night!” 

”Okay, so everything was so amazing. He was really romantic about it all and gentle , kind, caring and damn he is sexy. Every little inch of him..” She dreamed herself away for a minute thinking of every inch of him touching every inch of her and she was getting a little flustered at the thought.

”Well not too little I hope.”

”So not little.” The both girls started giggling. ”This is so what I needed right now, thank you.”

”No worries, see you in class later?”

”Of course, I just need to get my makeup on in time to actually get to school in time.”

”Well I won’t hold you up and see you later.”

”See you too baby mama.” She could hear Melody giggle on the other side before she hung up and started on her makeup.

Melody was sitting in the car with Liam on their way to school. It was still early but they were on a mission to talk to the guidance counselor about getting out of PE.

”So, how’s Sasha?” Liam asked. 

”She’s good, a little too good but it’s understandable..” She said cryptically.

”What are you talking about, baby?” It got him curious.

”Oh, sorry nothing that concerns you.” She said and kissed him before she got out of the car in the school parking lot.

”Really I don’t get anything?” He closed his door and walked up to her.

”No cause it’s girltalk and you’re not a girl are you?” She raised her brow to him, questioning even if they both know the answer.

”You should know that.” He stated in response.

”Just checking, so you don’t get to know about it. Moving on.” She knew she won, she always did when it came to him.

”Right Right, so are you sure you wanna do this?” Liam asked for the fifth time that morning.

”I have to, you heard what the doctor said and I don’t feel like risking anything.”

”But you don’t have to do this now, it’s still early.” Liam offered, knowing how fast their secret wouldn’t be a secret anymore after going through with it.

”But I do, I have a bad feeling about it otherwise.” She put her hand protectively on her stomach.

”It’s your choice but once the teachers know it won’t be long until the rest of the school knows and I know that you don’t want that either.”

”I know.. but since it’s boxing for PE for a while I don’t think that it’s a good idea to participate. Do you?” She looked at him and once again knowing she had won the conversation.

”I don’t want you or our baby to get hurt, so of course not. I’m just making sure this is what you want.” He took her hands in his.

”I’m sure, but I love you for caring.” She said and gave him a light kiss.

”Love you too baby.”

”Speaking of..”

”The engagement?”

”Yeah.. It’s not that I don’t love you and you know that but..” She wasn’t sure how to put it but she didn’t have to figure it out, Liam did it for her.

”But it’s just not the time for it?”

”Yeah, I know that I someday want to marry you just not because I’m pregnant and in high school.”

”I know and I agree.”

”But what about your parents? Your mom?” Mel asked, worried about the future grandparents.

”It’s my life, she can’t decide what I do with it. If she doesn’t approve then until she can at least accept it she won’t see her grandchild.” Mel was kind of surprised and proud at the same time by her man’s words.

”That might be a bit harsh don’t you think?” She eventually said.

”She started it so she can be the one to end it.”

”If you say so.. Anyway can we do this before the rest of school is pouring down the hall and hear everything?”

”Sure babe.” He said and kissed her forehead and took her hand before knocking on the door to the guidance councilor.
