Kie's POV:
That day, JJ and I started talking more about the baby. We were waiting until after I was three months pregnant and in the second trimester to tell anyone. The first trimester is considered the most dangerous in terms of most likely miscarrying.
We didn't want to admit to what we did if something happened to the baby as it would still ruin everything. We were going to tell Cole first about the baby and that it was JJ's. If it ruined the wedding, I did it to myself.
"So do you want to have a girl or boy?" I asked JJ
"A little girl, just like her mom" He said confidently
I laughed and said, "That's funny because I want a boy, just like his daddy"
We both then added we just want a healthy baby. We started talking about names. There were so many names to talk about. There were way more that we disliked than names we liked. We both said no Luke or Anna in the name.
JJ and I spent two days at his cabin and we had a lot of fun. He was bringing me back home as I had to work tomorrow.
I spent the next week alone working like crazy. It was now the weekend and I was going to hang with John B, Sarah, and JJ. Cole came home next weekend from Arizona.
We were sitting around the fire, just like old times when Pope and Cleo showed up. We all freaked out and were so excited to see them.
"We need some beers" Cleo said
"Alright, I'll grab them from the fridge" JJ said getting up and going inside
He came back a few minutes later and he handed Pope and Cleo beers and then he gave me one and said, "You looked like you needed a beer"
"Thanks" I said bringing the beer to my nose and smelling it
It didn't smell like anything. I took a tiny sip and it was just water. JJ must have dumped the beer, washed the can, and filled it back with water. I slowly sipped the water when people were watching.
Everyone was talking about doing shots and playing drinking games.
"Listen, I'd love to but I'm exhausted and I have to work tomorrow. I also don't want to walk home so can one of you give me a ride before you're too drunk?"
"I'll do it. You guys have fun and I'll see you tomorrow night" I said as I left with JJ
It was only 10 pm and I was driving JJ to his dad's since Luke still wasn't there. I pulled up his driveway and we saw Barry was there. I quickly turned around and drove JJ to my house.
"Thank you for the water in the beer can" I said
"No problem, I didn't realize how hard this was going to be" He said
"Neither did I... I'm only seven weeks along. This pregnancy is going to take forever. We still have five weeks to keep it hidden from everyone"
We went inside and we both took showers, in different bathrooms. I was in a t-shirt and a pair of short pajama shorts. It was still pretty cold out but I didn't really care. I called for JJ to come upstairs and he came sprinting.
"Are you okay?" He asked worried
"Yeah, sorry. I just wanted to ask you something" I said walking over to my full-length mirror
I lifted my shirt up to reveal my stomach and I asked, "Can you tell there's a bump?"
"Honestly, yes to me because I know. But to others, it just looks like you might be bloated."
He paused for a second and said, "Fuck, I'm sorry for how that sounded. I'm not trying to say you look like you're gaining weight. I just mean that it looks like our baby is growing and in order for our baby to grow, you'll have to grow. I'm really digging myself a deep hole right now"
JJ was freaking out and I could tell he felt like he said the wrong thing. I looked at him and said, "I completely understand what you're saying. I know that my stomach is going to grow and when I'm hiding this pregnancy, it's going to look like I'm getting fat. Thank you for being so sweet"
He came up behind me and we took pictures in the mirror on his phone. He looked at me and asked, "Can I touch your stomach?"
"Yeah" I said right away
He was taking some more pictures and then we went downstairs and watched a movie. I went upstairs to bed and JJ was sleeping over in the guest bedroom.
Same old morning routine, throwing up. However, I was nauseated and sick all day. JJ called in sick to work and took care of me. He rubbed my back and my feet, got me food, took care of everything, and just let me sleep. He also called my doctor just to make sure everything was okay.
He was already so overprotective over this baby. It was kinda cute. JJ spent the night again and I was feeling so much better the next day. I got up and went to work. A few days later, I was picking Cole up from his work trip in Arizona.
He told me all about it and we went to bed. I was now eight weeks pregnant and I had a doctor's appointment in two days. I laid in bed with Cole and he kissed me goodnight. He held me in his arms and he had the day off tomorrow. I went to work and when I came home, he surprised me with a date night.
We were going mini golfing. This was a new date activity. Usually, we just did dinner. Cole and I actually had an amazing time. We went home and we were making out in bed. He took my clothes off and he looked at my stomach and I could tell he was confused as to why it was slightly sticking out.
"I've been super bloated today. My boss took us out to lunch and I had a bunch of greasy food. I just need to drink some water and have a green juice tomorrow and I'll feel much better"
"You're beautiful, Kiara," He said kissing my stomach and it gave me chills and not in a good way
We continued making out and we had sex. I woke up early the next day for work and I took a shower and went to the doctor. I invited JJ this time and so I picked him up on the way. They did another pelvic ultrasound and we heard the heartbeat of our baby. I was crying and JJ was holding back tears.
My next appointment was when we'd find out if we were having a girl or a boy. Our baby was healthy and everything was going as planned. We left the doctor and we walked back to my car. JJ demanded we got ice cream. He wanted to make it a tradition and I loved the idea. I dropped him off at work and then I went into the office.
