Running - Joshler ?

Chapter 21

Now absolutely horny due to my raging hormones, I pull him in for a full kiss and slip my tongue in his mouth.

I could tell he's a little shocked at my actions, but complies nonetheless.

We make out for another minute or so until I let out a moan, and he pulls away.

"Alright ty, what the hell is going on?" He asks me.

I'm dumbfounded by his sudden action.

"What?"

"What is going on with you? You wake up every morning throwing up, you are now eating weird things at weird times, and your emotions are all over the place." He explains in a rough tone.

I unwrap my arms from his neck and put them in my lap, looking down.

"Will you please tell me what the hell is going on? I know it's not like you to eat peanut butter and ice cream at three am."

I start crying again, not being able to control my emotions. Goddess, this is one of the sucky things about being pregnant.

He sighs when he sees I'm crying again. "I'm sorry for my tone." He lifts my head so my gaze meets his. "Just please tell me what's going on? I'm getting worried."

I shake my head and pull my head from his hands.

He huffs. "Fine. I'm going back to bed. Feel free to join me when you're done eating."

He begins to leave but I grab his wrist quickly.

"Wait." I whisper.

He lets me pull him back in front of me. "Are you going to tell me?" He asks impatiently.

"I'm pregnant." I say, very quietly. So quiet, it's hard for even me to hear.

"Fine, if you're not going to tell me." He takes his wrist away from my grasp and begins to leave.

I close my eyes and take a deep breath.

"I'm pregnant." I say. This time, it was loud and clear.

I see him pause and turn around in the corner of my eye.

"What?" He slowly makes his way back in front of me.

I could barely make him out because of how watery my eyes were. I poured and repeated it again.

"I'm pregnant. And it's yours. You're the only guy I have ever been with, in that way." A few tears fall down my cheeks.

He looks at my stomach, and I'm sure he can sort of see my growing bump through his loose shirt.

"Ty, why are you crying? This is great news." He scoots my body closer to him as he hugs me.

"Because I don't want you to leave me." I mumble.

He pulls away quickly. "Ty, look at me."

I reluctantly look into his eyes.

"I love you more than anything. I would never leave you. Nor would I ever leave Arina, and now our second baby."

I release another sob.

Oh fuck pregnancy hormones. I'm so over them.

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner." He pulls me back into him and rubs my back.

"Don't worry about it. I know now." He slowly rocks us back and forth.

It slowly stops my crying, and I bask in the moment.

But I remember how hungry I was for the ice cream I never had, and I start crying again.

"Ty, why are you still crying?" He asks me as he pulls away.

"I never ate my vanilla ice cream." I whine.

He just starts laughing, and reaches over for the ice cream on the counter.

"Let's get you some vanilla ice cream, then."
