Fucking pregnancy hormones. I hated being pregnant. I hated it. In fact, I hated a lot of things lately. I hated school, for giving me so much homework. I hated work, for making me stay late and take three extra shifts. I hated my cousins cos they were acting like assholes and bad mouthing my boyfriend. In fact I hated my boyfriend at the moment, for not being around lately, for lying to me, for his stupid cutting habits, and for getting me pregnant. "I hate being pregnant." I grumble kicking a nearby stone down the street.

I look up spotting Shell walk towards me, kids right behind her. I freeze, taking a step back as I see her kids, a habit I seriously need to break.

I notice her stepping backwards and slightly laugh. "It's okay, they're not demon children, well maybe Jenny is..." I say to Maddie. Jenny just gives me a wink.

"Sorry." I mumble, eyeing the kids,"I'm not much of a kid person." That's fucking ironic, your about to have a kid of your own in oh...seven months!

"You'll get used to it, trust me..." I say to her. "I never thought I was going to have any kids, but my motherly instinct just took over as you can tell..." I say with a laugh.

"So, I heard Ian saying it was a boy...I don't remember the name though..." I say. "That's the reason why I have so many." I look down at my three daughters and my only son in my arms now.

"Alex." I mumble feeling worse then I did before,"We're planning on naming him Alex."

"That's right..." I say. "Are you okay Maddie? I know we're not close, but I'll help you if you want to talk about it..." I say with a weak smile.

I shrug, jamming my hands into my jacket pockets, sinking feeling in my chest as I realize I was wearing Ian's jacket."Does..Does Ian ever talk about me?" I aks after a moment.

I smile. "You always come across in our conversations, just like yesterday. He said I should come visit help you two with the baby, and that you're soooo nice to him..." I say. "I know he cares about you if that's what you're after."

Then why does it seem like he wants to get away from me? I smile weakly,"Thanks Shell, I just..I just want him to always remember I love him." I mumble.

"He knows Maddie, like I said, he mentions you all the time. Never forget that okay?" I say to her with a smile.

"So, is the house fully repaired yet?" I ask her to change the subject.

"Yeah," I nod smiling,"It looks great."

"That's good, what happened exactly to the house, if I may ask?" I say.

"It got burned down." I say, it wasn't exactly a lie, I had just left down who burned it down.

"That's terrible, you should have someone put a magical spell over your house although it has it's downfalls, like if you lock your keys in the house and you can't break the spell..." I say slightly frustrated.

I laugh,"Guessing you've locked youself out?"

Post by Shelby Chou on Sept 9, 2007 20:26:32 GMT
I laugh. "Yeah, I've been locked out for weeks..." I say with a slight frown. "Nick, he left them on the coffeetable. I can see them from the window too, it's like their mocking me..."

"Evil bast.." I stop eying the children,"Ew..evil bats?" I supply,"Well why don't you just thrown a rock through the window, that's how Jack and I used to get inside when we got locked out."

"I know, but windows are expensive..." I say with a fading smile. I whisper to her, "Nick's been dead for a few months, they're still upset..." I look down at Ashlyn's sad face.

"Course they are. Losing a paren'ts hard. Do you really expect them to get over it like that?" I ask snapping my fingers.

"Well, Isaiah was too young to really remember him he was only a couple of weeks, and Jenny has a different father..." I say. "I don't really, but they've taking a liking to Rowan..."

"Well that can't be good." I laugh,"He's got other pairs."

"I hid them under a rock, but I forgot which one. He said that he didn't need shoes just socks..." I say laughing. "You know, honestly I never thought you liked me..." I say now as my smile faded.
