After we get done at the doctors appointment I ask Elyon to take me to my house. I figured it would be a good idea to get it done right away.
Ten minutes later we walk up to the door. Mom flings it open and pulls me into a hug. As another dizzy spell starts I hold her a bit tighter and she looks up at Elyon.
"What is wrong with my daughter? If you hurt her I will kill you myself."
Elyon picks me up and puts me on the couch. He goes in the kitchen and gets me a glass of juice. When he comes back in the room both mom and dad are trying to find out what's wrong.
Elyon says," Emma is just a bit dizzy is all. We just got done at the doctors appointment and she wanted to come here. She is not hurt. But as soon as it passes we will explain."
After a minute it stops. Elyon gives me a vitamin and the juice. Once I take it I look at mom and dad and say," Um I know you were against this but your going to be grandparents."
Mom and dad are both in shock. Then dad stands up and hugs me." Oh honey I am so happy for you. So your dizzy because your pregnant? What do we need to know? How can we help? Congratulations to you both."
Then he hugs me again. I look over at mom, I am a bit nervous because she was against me getting pregnant from the start. Now it looks like she is in shock. We are all silent for a moment then I start to cry when she gets up and hugs me. I'm not sure this is a good thing or a bad thing until she steps back.
"I'm going to be a grandma, Oh I can't wait. Oh honey I'm so happy for you. I will admit I think your both to young for this but it's happened so we just have to accept it and go with it. Now since your both different species what does it mean for you and the baby?"
"Okay so what we found out is that a wolf carries a baby for seven months, but a vampire only carries for six months. The reason I'm having dizzy spells is because my body is working overtime to compensate for the difference. The doctor gave me vitamins that I have to take twice a day to help with this. Once my body regulates the dizzy spells will stop. As of today I am six weeks. According to the doctor I do have to be careful because my body has to add on a week and a half to balance out the difference between the species.We do have pictures. It's not much but if you want to see them? Mom we talked about using protection and not getting pregnant on my birthday but by then it was already to late. We intend to keep the baby. I would appreciate any and all advice you can give me."
"Oh honey I am so happy for you. I will do my best to help any way I can. Don't worry I'm not upset. I will admit I am a bit scared for you. We would love to see the pictures."
I hug both of my parents as Elyon runs out to the car and gets the ultrasound photos. When he comes back in he hands them to mom. Both of them get all mushy as they look at the pictures. Dad gives the baby the nickname of jelly bean. Dad keeps one of the photos and then gives both Elyon and me a hug as he heads off to work.
Once dad is gone mom runs through the wedding things she has figured out so far. She looks at Elyon and says," Will three months from now be enough time for your family to be informed about the wedding? I would like my daughter to be married before my grandchild is born. I know by your laws you already are but not by mine."
Elyon thinks about it for a minute then he says," Yes I believe that is a fair amount of time. It is also my wish to marry her before the baby is born."
While they are talking I am sitting here wondering about my friends. If Cammie is a wolf what are the girls? Or are they one of the few humans in town. How do I ask them? Will Cammie know? Would she tell me if I asked? So I ask Elyon and mom what they think.
Hey mom Elyon and I got a shock this morning. Cammie and her husband are wolves. They run the hospital we have to use. All this time and I never knew. She told us that when this town was founded four witches put protection spells around it. Now no one knows what species the others are unless someone kills another in cold blood then everyone knows the truth of that person. So guys my question is how would I ask my friend what they are or do you think I should just ask Cammie so I can figure out how to explain the baby to them. Because you know if I keep them in the dark to long they will have a fit."
"Yes you have a point there. What do you think Elyon? I mean they lost it when she didn't tell them about you fast enough or about her finding her family. Personally I think you might want to ask Cammie. If they are super natural then they would use the clinic right?"
"I agree with your mom honey, I think the best bet is to ask Cammie. I can't tell what they are because of the spells, and trust me I remember how they acted because of our date. Yes I think Cammie is your best bet."
"It's a quarter to ten. The breakfast rush is over. Why don't you go talk to her if you feel up to it. The girls are supposed to be here at eleven so you can always come back and tell them then."
I look at Elyon and he smiles and shakes his head. So I give mom a kiss and we head out to Cammie's Diner.
Once we get to the diner as I get out of the car the parking lot sways for a second but no spinning. I smile and tell Elyon it's getting better. We go in the diner and sit down. After a few minutes Cammie comes over.
"Hey Cammie can I talk to you real quick? In your office please?"
"Sure honey come on."
Once we get in her office I close the door before sitting down.
"First of all just wanted you to know I took one vitamin when I went to mom's house and now the room just sways for a bit rather than spinning."
"That's great news honey I will let Max know. What else is on your mind?"
"Well I was hoping you could help me. You know if I don't tell the girls about the baby they will loose it. I was wondering if you knew if they were human or otherwise? I need to figure out how to explain it to them so they don't get to pissy. Also don't have a date yet but the wedding is in three months. Mom wants us married before the baby is born."
"So she is okay with the baby, that's great. I can't tell you what they are but I can tell you both girls are super natural. Yes I know how they can get so the sooner you tell them the better."
"Thank you Cammie, that helps a lot. Are you sure you want me to remain on leave since we have the dizzy spells under control?"
"Honey this baby is a hybrid, what works today might not work tomorrow. No you will remain on leave. I want you both safe and healthy. Don't worry after the baby you can come back. You will always have a job here if you want it."
I get up and give Cammie a hug and say," Thank you so much. Since I just learned about all of this last month I will accept any advice you want to share. Now I think I need to eat, my stomach is starting to feel funky."
"Yes you go sit down I will bring you a rare steak and eggs with toast."
"Oh that sounds good. Thank you so much."
So I head back to the table and Cammie gets my order started. Then she comes back with a glass of orange juice for me and asks Elyon what he wants. He tells her he will have the same as me. Then she goes back and gets his started. A couple minutes later she brings out our food and juice then she goes back to work. Once we are done Elyon pays the bill and leaves Cammie a big tip then we head back to the house.
