Running from someone close to your Character
"Sarah, are you ready?" The doctor asks, walking into the room. I nod, "Okay, let's check on the baby." She puts a cold gel on my stomach, Xavier sitting in the corner. I can tell he is pissed. He killed the vampire that did this to me. "Xavier, come here." The doctor said, and he did. "See the heads?" She points to something on the screen.
"There are two?" He asks, looking back at me. I nod my head holding his gaze.
"A boy and a girl," I say. I want to name the boy after him, but I don't know how he will take it.
"She has already picked out the name." The doctor says.
"When is she due?"
"Next week." He nodded and left. Taking my breath with him.
"Do you think he will be there?" I ask.
"He hasn't missed anything when it comes to you. He is not the best at taking the news. He loves you, Sarah, I've never seen him stick with one person, let alone a human." The doctor looks at me. "You are free to go home tonight," I nod and get off the table. "Come back tomorrow." As I walk home, I think about what the doc said. Does Xavier love me? That's impossible.
"Sarah, long time no see." Kevin walks up next to me. "How is the baby?"
"They are fine."
"Where is the father?" He asks. I freeze.
"The father is dead." Xavier says. I spin around and almost lose my balance, but Xavier pulls me towards him.
"Xavier," Kevin slightly nods. "May I ask a question?" Xavier nods. "Does she know?"
"Of course, she knows. She's, my fiancé." I looked up at him in complete shock. Someone bumps into us.
"Hey." She snaps and turns towards me. Xavier growls and she looks at him. "Sorry, Prince" she bows. "Please forgive me." I look at him.
"You're forgiven" I say when he just stares at her. He turns his stare on me. "Enjoy your day, Ma'am." I usher her along. I look at Xavier and he isn't happy.
"Sarah, you're not allowed to do that." Kevin steps forward. Xavier growls at him, making me step away from them.
"I'll be going home now." I take a few more steps away from them. "It was good seeing you Kevin." I turned and walked towards my house.
"Sarah," I heard Kevin call and Xavier growl again. Doesn't he understand how I feel when he does stuff like this?
I slammed my front door shut and punched the wall next to it. I heard a lot of cracking noises from my hand before the pain started. "Fuck" I screamed cradling my hand. There was a knock at the door. I swung it open and there stood Xavier. He took one look at me and then at the wall next to me.
"Why?" He asked. I pointed at him.
"Because of you! You have to be in control of everything. You obviously don't want the twins, so why not just fucking say it." I sob out. He reached for me, but I pulled back. "I just want to be happy. I can't even talk to my friend without you getting upset." I look up at his eyes and for the second time I see tears rolling down his face.
"I want the baby; it isn't easy taking in that there are two. I get upset because a VAMPIRE did this to you. Not me, but someone I trusted with your care. So, I'm not as trusting with others around you. I'm sorry if I hurt you or made you hurt yourself. I'll leave now." He turned to leave but bumped into kevin.
"Xavier, she chose you over me. I don't know why but she did. Don't walk out on her now. She is due in a few weeks. She needs you now more than ever." I felt water slide down my leg and pain erupted from my lower stomach. I hear a scream as Xavier turns and freaks.
"We need to get her to the hospital. Call this number." He thrust a card at Kevin. He picks me up and runs towards his car.
"No, I don't want to go in there," I sob as a wave of pain hits me harder than the last time.
