I am so behind on all of my school work. I thought I could continue school even though I’m pregnant but I was wrong. I wake up with morning sickness everyday and I have a ton of of homework to finish. I’m doing bad in all of my classes. It’s just so stressful.
Sometimes I just want to burst into tears and wish for my life to be normal again. I wish I had a do over. I had plans for myself when I was younger. I wanted to be vet and to go to college. After college, I would settle down and have kids. Find the perfect guy for me. Kyle is my perfect guy but I was I could have achieve those plans first.
“Madeline are you okay?”Kyle asked, worried. I nodded. I just wanted to be alone for a while but I can’t do that with Kyle checking up on me every five minutes. I laid my head on the wall, looking out the window.
“Kyle, I wanna stay with my parents for a few days.”I blurted out. He gave me a confused look and shook his head.
“No. You can’t.”He said. My frown deepened.
“I wasn’t asking. I am going to stay with my parents.”I stood up and walked to the door. He stopped me.
“I’m telling you. You can’t go. What if the baby gets hurt while I’m not there?”He asked, calmly but I could hear the anger laced in his tone.
“The baby won’t get hurt. My brother will be there.”I said. He frowned.”I just need some time alone.”
“Madeline, you can’t go and thats final.”He ordered. I rolled my eyes and walked out of the room anyway. He called my name to come back but I kept walking. He caught up with me by the doorway. He turned me to face him.
“Let go.”I pushed him off of me. His grip tightened.
“You’re not going anywhere.”His claws dug into my arm. I winced.
“You’re hurting me.”He released me with a frown.
“I’m going Kyle and thats it.”I walked out of the door and into Grace’s car. She smiled at me, sadly. I watched Kyle out the window. He had an angry but hurt look in his eyes. I looked away, knowing if I looked back I would tell Grace to stop the car.

“He just got angry, mom.”I told her as I sat on the counter with her cleaning the cut. I got here ten minutes ago and mom was worried. She kept questioning me.
“But he has no right to hurt you. You’re his mate, he shouldn’t be hurting you like this.”She said. She applied rubbing alcohol to the cut and I winced as it stung.
“I made him angry.”
“Does he hurt you?”She asked, loudly. Thank god my dad wasn’t home.
“No, mom. It was just an accident.”I smiled.
“Why did you come home?”She asked, washing her hands. I hopped off of the counter.
“I just needed time alone. Everything has been so stressful, mom. I don’t know how I’m going to do this.”I felt tears run down my cheeks. She cooed and pulled me into a hug. She rubbed my back and whispered sweet things into my ears. Things like,’ It’s gonna be okay’ and ‘Don’t worry. I’ll be here’. It made me cry more.
“Come here,sweetie.”She pulled me to the couch and we sat down. I nuzzled my head into her chest and cried. I cried and cried until I could. All my tears were gone.
“I’m sorry.”I whispered. She nodded.
“It’s okay.”She kissed my forehead and rubbed circles into my back. It wasn’t okay.
“It’s not okay.I’m sorry I made you a Grandma at 35.”A few stray tears ran down my cheek. She wiped it away and pulled me into her chest. She held me like a baby.
“Oh, honey. We all make mistakes. No one is perfect. I’m upset that you have to go through this.”She whispered, her chin on my head. I held on to her tightly. I love my mom. After a while, she pulled away.
“Now, no more tears. I want you to be happy. Let me make some Hot chocolate while you take a shower.”She said. I nodded and smiled, softly. She. returned it and went inside of the kitchen. I walked to my room and grabbed a towel. I went inside of the bathroom and turned on the faucet. I waited until the water was hot and started to take off my clothes. I entered the shower and washed my body. I washed my hair and relaxed. After my shower, I went inside of my room with the towel wrapped around me.
I smiled seeing that my room was the same way it was. My bed was made up and all my things were in their same place. I dried my skin and changed into some sweatpants and a long sleeved shirt. I stared at myself in the full length mirror. I changed so much. My skin looked brighter and my body looked different.
My boobs got bigger and so did my butt. My greenish/brownish eyes were brighter. I walked to my dresser and picked up the hair brush that my mom gave me. I brushed all the tangled out of my hair and left it that way. I walked downstairs to the living room to see it set up.
There was two cups of hot chocolates on the coffee table and the couch had a blanket on it. My mom was there smiling at the TV as she picked up a cup and took a sip. I smiled and sat next to her. She handed me a cup and I put my feet up and under me. We watched a movie and enjoyed our hot chocolate.

“Good morning, Sweetie.”Mom greeted as I woke up from her lap.
“Good Morning. Where’s dad?”I asked, sleepily.
“Right here, pumpkin.”I looked at the other couch and saw him sitting there with a smile. I got off of mom’s lap and hugged my dad. He chuckled and hugged me back.
“I missed you.”I said.
“I missed you too.”He stroked my hair, gently. I hopped off of him and went to my room. I passed by Mason’s room and stopped there. I knocked on his door.
“Yes.”His groggy voice was heard through the door. I opened it and saw that he was laying down on his bed, looking up at me. He smiled and patted his side. I walked over to his bed and went under the covers with him. I wrapped my arms around him.
“I missed you, big bro.”
“I missed you too, little sis.”He wrapped his arm around me. We stayed like that until mom called us down for breakfast. We raced down the stairs, me trying now to fall. We took a seat in the kitchen and dug in. I was starving. The door bell rung and mom walked to the door. Mason tense and so did dad.
“Madeline, you have a visitor.”She called out. I heard muttering from the front door. I curiously got up and walked to the hallway. I stopped in front of the door as mom left.
“Lorin? What are you doing here?”I asked, leaning against the doorway. He smiled.
“I came to see you and I wanted to see myself if the rumors were true.”He replied and pointed to my belly. I looked at him weirdly.
“Are you trying to get yourself killed? Kyle is gonna be pissed when he finds out you’re in his territory!”I exclaimed. He rolled his eyes, playfully and shook his head.
“So you’re really pregnant, huh?”He stared at my stomach.
“Yeah.”I whispered. He studied me.
“I can hear its heartbeat.”He said. I nodded and licked my dried lips.
“Listen, Lorin you have to go.”I told. He nodded.
“I’m not giving up on you, Madeline.”He winked and walked away. i quickly closed the door, locking it and walking to the kitchen. Everyone was quiet and munching on their food.
“Seems like you have an admirer.”Mom said. She didn’t know what was going on.
“Nope. I have a stalker.”
