A Different Way (Nate x Reader)

-9-

Nate's p.o.v

I chuckle as Y/n color coordinates some outfits for the baby. "Y/n, we don't even know the gender, doll face. You can hold off on color coordinating, yeah?" Y/n chuckles at my words and shrugs. "I dunno, we find out in a few hours, lovey. I'm excited so I have to find something to do with my energy." I nod, shrugging whilst hanging a mobile. It was cute, it has dogs of all breeds on it. Y/n chose the themes for basically everything. I can understand the dog theme but I steered her away from EVERYTHING relating to dogs.  I look at the time. "Darling, we should get going." Y/n nods and stands up with my help. We drive to the clinic, recognizing Oakley and Lilac at the same place.  Oakley smiles at me, handing me a bag. "Here, my sister made it for you two." I raise an eyebrow and take it, deciding to wait till later to open it.

I set the bag down as we wait for Y/n's name to be called. Finally, we were called back. Y/n was asked to lay down on the bed, as she did so I stood by her, biting my lip. The nurse chuckles as she places the wand on Y/n's bump. "He doesn't like me pressing on his momma." Y/n's and My eyes pop wide open. "He?!" we both ask in sync. "Yep, he's a very healthy little boy." Y/n and I giggle, watching him kick annoyedly at the wand. The nurse later went on to explain that he might come earlier than expected because he's getting big.

When we got home, Y/n sat in the nursery and folded the blanket that Oakley had given us. It had elephants on one side and on the back was softer than the front. I grabbed my skates and put them in my bag. I call to Y/n that I'm ready and she scrambles her way to the car with me. Though my leg was almost healed completely, I still had a limp. Skating small routines would help build the muscle. As soon as we got to the rink, Y/n bolted inside, racing into the locker room.

I chuckle at her and set my things in my locker. Y/n drags Dan over to me, I raise an eyebrow. "yes, dear? Hey there, Dan Man" Dan shrugs Y/n off him and picks at his sweater. Y/n gestured to him. "He's been acting weird!'' Dan chuckles, shaking his head. I shrug. "Darling, how do you feel when you're pregnant?" Y/n shrugs. "tired and awkward I guess.. why?" I Look over at her and flick my eyes to Dan quickly. Y/n's eyes widen and she jumps up quickly. "Holy moly! thats awesome!" 

Dan's blush darkened his pale cheeks, he mumbled a small "thanks" I chuckle, changing into better skating clothing. I lace up my skates while looking around for Phil. He was usually standing around in the observatory or around Dan. Dan had followed me out to spot me while Y/n organized her and my lockers. "Phil's away with Sienna.." he said sadly. "They're privately practicing. I don't like it." He growled, tugging his sleeves over his hands. I chuckle and pat his back gently. "Nor do I like Sienna, bud. But it is his job as a veteran to help the younger skaters." I tell him gently. He nods. "That's true. I don't know what's gotten into me. I woke up literally this morning feeling just fine. 

I chuckle a little. "hormones, Danny boy." He shrugs with a sigh. "how's your leg?" I shrug, slowly getting on the ice. "It's still there.. but hopefully today I get some good muscle buildup." Dan nods, stretching. "Good idea.."

Dan's p.o.v

I have been so moody lately, well that's really no different from regular me. But I'm still missing Phil like no one else. If only Sienna didn't need so much work, then Phil could pay attention to me. I shook away the thoughts and watched Nate do a simple foot work routine. Phil walked through the door, no Sienna behind him. I smile and get up off the bench, Phil chuckles at m response. "hey, Philly! where's the new blood?" Phil smiles, kissing my forehead before frowning slightly. "She quit." My eyes widen. Quit? We've had people leave, yeah but Quit? no. "Phil I'm sorry.. that must suck. She was doing well too." I say solemnly. Phil shrugs. "I was honest with her, she wasn't improving. She wouldn't take my advice and snapped at me when I referenced you at all." 

I was fuming. I know that she bugged me purely on the fact that I'm a moody bitch but, Nuh UH. No way was she flirting with Phil. I bite my tongue with a nod to acknowledge him. He sighs. "you're pissed aren't you?" I nod again, not saying a word.  Phil hugs me tightly, chuckling a little. "Don't worry, bear. She won't hurt us." I sigh and nod. "yeah, I know.. I still don't want her near you though." I mumble, feeling my mood change. Again . I applaud anyone who can handle these mood swings.  They're awful. Phil's been wowed by the change in me, I can be sweet as can be one minute, the next minute I'll want to rip his head off. Goddamn hormones.

Haley's p.o.v 

I  pace around as I wait for Joey. He's supposed to be my duet partner in my routine.  Though I wanted to be more than just his skating partner, but he's likely to choose someone else. To him, I'm his friend.  I see him walk in the door and I smile. Joey sighs and smiles back. "sorry, traffic was awful today." he apologized with a Kiss. I jump back and blink in surprise. He just kissed me! "Urm, Jo? Y-you just k-kissed me!" I squeak. He nods with a smirk. "I know, I did it on purpose." I shake my head. "What?" He chuckles. "I kissed you on purpose. Haley, would you be my girlfriend?" he asked, the room went black, I feel myself falling. I blink my eyes open, feeling someone hold me. "y-yes?" I answer, hardly aware of what he just asked.

Joey smiles down at me and kisses me again. "About your baby fever.." He started. I roll my eyes. "wait, there my man." I tease, slipping off my blade guards. This week is gonna be great. 

****two week time skipppp****

(Still Haley's p.o.V)

I groan, my head was pounding. Joey suggested I go to the doctor but I refuse. I probably have another cold. I have a baby shower to attend today, I'll live with a headache. And nausea, and body aches, and cramps, and some cravings. wait... those are symptoms of. Shit! I quickly run to the bathroom and grab a pregnancy test, peeing on it quickly and taking a shower. I get dressed and pack my gifts before looking at the test. "Pregnant! 1-2 weeks" I smile and squeal a little.

"JO!" I call down the stairs. I hear rushed footsteps before seeing his face, stubbly and his beautiful hazel eyes staring into mine. I hold the test up and hand it to him. He gasps and spins me around. "Looks like that doctors appointment will be scheduled anyway." he says. I laugh and grab the bags for Dan. I turn to him as we head out to the car.

(A/n Hello! y'all know what's gonna be in the next chapter then. This was kinda rushed as ive been having some mental health issues and I wanted to get this out. See you all next time!)
