It's been a few months since I found out I was pregnant and the doctors all agree that I'm probably four to five months.
So second trimester.
So a whole load of weird cravings.
I walk into the kitchen only to see Seb's mum chopping something up.
I moved into Seb's house a while ago, mainly because he forced me and also because my apartment is trashed and I don't feel like cleaning it up anytime soon.
I also might be the slightest bit traumatised.
And the whole time I've been here, I haven't seen much of Seb's mum, she's either been out or holed up in her room doing god knows what.
'Hi.' I say.
'Alexis, it's so nice to see you. You look well, amore.'
'Thank you.' I say.
I pick up my phone from the counter and open the freezer to retrieve a carton of ice cream.
'I was just making lunch, if you wanted, I could make you some.' She says.
I shake my head. 'No that's okay.'
She gives me a smile and I give her one back.
'You know, Alexis, I am very glad that Seb picked you to be his girlfriend. You're the perfect one for him.'
I can feel myself blushing. I look down at my hands and then back at her. 'Thank you?'
She shakes her head. 'Alexis you should own that information, because you certainly own his heart. If I was you, I would use him to my advantage.'
I have no idea what she means by that, but I nod anyway and leave the kitchen.

I can't sew to save my life, but I'm going to try anyway.
I've done about half of the onesie I'm making for the baby growing in my stomach, when Seb walks in and launches himself on the bed.
I wince when the needle shifts and goes into my finger.
'Really? Could you not sit on the bed like a normal person.' I say
'Lexi, it's my bed. I can do what I want.'
I glare at him, before looking back at what I'm doing.
The room falls back into the silence it was in before and he watches my hands work.
'What are you making?' He asks.
I hold it up for him to see. 'A onesie, for the baby.'
'What, by hand?'
I nod. 'Yeah. In my family the grandma of the new baby handmakes a onesie for it and that's what they wear out of the hospital. I don't know, it's tradition.'
'But you're not the grandma though.'
'Yeah, but I haven't told my mum so...'
'Well tell your mum.'
'I'm not going to do that.' I say firmly
'Why not?'
I shrug. 'Because I don't actually think either of my parents care.'
'Lexi, come on. Listen, if it was our child you'd want to know if they were pregnant.'
I let his words settle in the air.
'But that's different.' I say quietly.
'It's not Lexi. At least just call your mum. You don't even have to tell your dad.' He says.
'No Seb.' I say, shaking my head.
He tuts. 'Well, I'll just have to do it for you then.' He leans forward and grabs my phone from next to me. 'You told my mum, I'll tell yours.'
'No.' I say, attempting to take back my phone and failing.
He opens my phone and scrolls through my call list till he finds my mum's contact.
I've got to make a mental note to change my password.
'Seb-'
'Lexi, all you have to do is tell her you're pregnant.'
He puts the call on speaker phone and drops it in the middle of the two of us.
'Hello?' My mum says through the phone.
Seb mouths 'Go on.' to me and I roll my eyes.
'Mum?'
'Lexi?'
'Yeah, it's me.'
'Oh hunny I'm so glad you called me. I've been so worried about you.'
I sigh. 'How are you mum?'
'I'm good. How are you?'
'I'm okay, thank you...Look mum, I was just calling to um...' Seb nods at me to continue. 'Um, just to let you know that I was pregnant.'
'You're pregnant?!' She says.
'Mmm hmm.'
'Oh Lexi. I'm so happy for you. Is it your boyfriend's, um... Sebastian?'
'Yes mum. It's Seb's.'
Seb's sitting across from me looking very smug.
I narrow my eyes at him and he sits forward suddenly.
'Ask her if she wants to come and stay.' He mouths at me.
I shake my head. 'No.' I mouth back.
Under no circumstance do I willingly want to see my parents.
'Fine.' He mouths back.
Then he leans in. 'Hi Mrs Camden.' He says.
I could stab him.
'Oh Sebastian, you're there too. How are you my love?' She says.
'I'm good thanks.' He says. 'Hey um, Lexi and I were wondering if you wanted to come stay with us. We could show you all the scans and stuff.'
'That would be lovely, It really would. I'll let my husband know and I'll come back to you with a date. Is that okay?'
My heart has literally sunk.
'Yeah that would be great.' He says.
He smiles up at me and I glare back at him.
'Bye mum.' I say before ending the call.
'Seriously? I could murder you.' I say.
'Lexi, come on. It's not going to be that bad.' He says as he lies on his back with his hands behind his head.
'Seb, it will be that bad. My dads going to go ballistic that I'm having a baby out of wedlock.'
'So we'll get married then.' He says with a smirk.
'No. Sebastian, I will kill you.'
He pushes himself up onto his elbows. 'You don't want to marry me?'
'Yes, I do. I just- Ugh go away.'
'So... you do want to marry me?'
'Go away.' I snap.
He smirks and leans in to me.
'For the record, I would marry you any day.' He whispers, before pressing a kiss onto my lips.
He pushes himself off the bed, and then walks out the room.
