Lauren's Love Part 8
Since I woke up that September in a house, cold and alone, Iâ??ve been depressed. You know when you fight with someone but go about things the wrong way? I feel Michael and I went about things the wrong way. Itâ??s November now, the month I wanted my baby shower to be. Itâ??s being held at this nice place Aunt Bella found. Mom and Dad will be there despite their differences. Really, a lot of my family and friends are going to be there, but I also have a list of the people who wonâ??t show: 1.)Simply is the baby father. Marshallâ??who I sometimes call Eric because I donâ??t want everyone knowing his nameâ??doesnâ??t even know Iâ??m having the baby shower. Since he took off, we havenâ??t had contact and I didnâ??t want people meeting him under these circumstances, but either way, the damage is kind of done. 2.)The next person is Michael. I donâ??t think he wants to go. In all honesty, I knew this day would come and I knew I wanted to invite Michael. So before I finally mailed off his invite, I stared at it, trying to weigh the pros and cons. I took so long that Melanie stopped by and caught me. â??Really Lauren? Just send the damn invite, you never know.â? I rolled my eyes, but with her help, I finally laid the tiny envelope in my mailbox, seal the top shut, and pull the flag up. But I had goosebumps going back up my pavement. Then another example of my depression was that at work, thatâ??s all I strictly did. I really didnâ??t engage with the customers like I usually did, and some tried writing it off as my pregnancy mood swings. But today is the day that Iâ??ve actually been dreading: my own baby shower. I didnâ??t want to get up, but Mel stayed the night and forced me out of bed. When I didnâ??t want to get ready, she kept me motivated and helped out. I was sitting in this throne/chair, where I could everything that was going on. I was pretty comfortable, other than the fact I had to pee but I had to limit myself. That baby shower has been going on for thirty minutes and thirty minutes turned into forty-five. â??Itâ??s official Mel, he isnâ??t coming. And why would he? Michael would only cause commotion if he does. Letâ??s just start eating.â? â??Laurenâ??â? â??No, I mean it. Letâ??s start.â? â??Whatever you want,â? Melanie said as she goes to Mom to tell her. Since this is for me, I had to keep the spirits up, which Mel and I did well together. I was about to start opening the gifts, but I decided I would walk around first to stretch my legs some. I was at the entrance of the hotel when I saw themâ?¦Michael and his brother Marlon knocking on the door. I immediately smiled and opened it for them. â??Lauren!â? Michael says excitedly. We immediately grasp. Then I hug Marlon next. â??Come on in.â? When they hesitate, I look around them. â??What?â? â??We just have a lotta gifts,â? Marlon says. So I look behind them and see Michael with two heavy bags. I laugh and try helping him. â??No, not with this baby bump.â? He rubs my tummy. I smile and hold onto his arm. When we get into the room, I say: â??Okay everyone, we have two last guests. Hereâ??s my friend Michael and his brother, Marlon.â? Letâ??s just say I got a few gasps, even a screech. But the three of us was simply natural with things. They sat the bags on the table with everyone elseâ??s. And as I open the gifts, I get another guestâ?¦Marshall? I look up at him in disbelief. â??Lauren,â? he says drunkenly. He goes up and kisses me. â??I got chu sum gifts,â? then he gives out a loud burp. Eww. â??Uh Marshall, what about we talk later,â? I whisper. â??No, I want to talk now. This my baby shower too.â? â??Now isnâ??t the time,â? I hiss. â??Uh, is there a problem here?â? Dad walks up to us. â??Naw there ainâ??t one. Other than the fact I knocked your daughter up while we wereâ??â? â??Marshall!â? As Dad is escorting him out, Marshall throws his gift on the table. Luckily, everyone was so uncomfortable to the point that we ignored what just happened and got on with opening the gifts. â??Laurie, sure youâ??ll be okay?â? â??Yes Mama.â? I tell her at the end. Iâ??m basically shocked beyond belief, but when Michael walks up to me, he gives me what I need the most: a hug. When I was one of the last ones still there, Michael decided he would ride with me and Melanie back to my place to help unload. But once the gifts were still unpacked, I told Mel to leave so Michael and I could have some privacy. When she did leave, Michael noticed like I did but didnâ??t say anything. â??Hey, Iâ??ll be right back. Iâ??m about to take some of this stuff off so I can get comfy.â? After I put on some shorts and a tank, I go back downstairs. â??Why are you acting so shy? You can feel my tummy, I wonâ??t bite.â? Michael rubs the back of his neck then he sits next to me and holds my hand. â??Your hair is growing like crazy.â? â??Yeah, itâ??s that pregnancy hair! But what motivated you to stay here?â? â??I wanted to talk to you aboutâ?¦us.â? I breathed in and out, â??Yeah, about us.â? â??Lookâ?¦Iâ??m sorry about what I did. I really do like youâ?¦but that night in Nevada, I got to thinking about the fact that if I raise your baby with youâ?¦sheâ??ll be calling me daddyâ?¦.And I donâ??t know if Iâ??m ready for that.â? â??Then Iâ??ll tell her to call you Michael,â? I smiled. â??You got the answers to everything, huh?â? â??No, but with you I do feel a little better.â? â??And I still had your first invitation.â? â??Yeah but I wanted you to remember. I wanted to reinforce it so youâ??ll remember.â? â??Thanks,â? he kissed my forehead. â??Well, want to start unpacking some of the gifts?â? â??Sure.â? So he carries the heavy stuff and unwillingly, I got a hold of Marshallâ??s gift. â??So this will be her room?â? â??Yep,â? I smile. Once we get the gifts situated, we go back to my couch. â??Want anything from the kitchen? Thereâ??s still leftovers and stuff.â? â??No, Iâ??m fine.â? â??You sure? Youâ??re only skin and bones, here.â? I get him and egg roll and feed it to him. â??You need this.â? â??Thanks.â? A little spill on my wrist. Michael holds it up and licks it off. â??Yum.â? I say then laugh. â??You looked very beautiful today, Lauren.â? â??Thank you. But you did look handsome yourself.â? Michaelâ??s sitting on the couch, and I carefully lay back on him. â??I hope you wonâ??t have to go to the bathroom soon,â? I laugh. â??No, I donâ??t.â? â??Okay, perfect,â? I mumble. Michael kisses my forehead, and we watch some TV until I feel myself going to sleep. I wake up in my bed, but I hear footsteps walking away. â??Michael?â? â??Yeah?â? he turns back and walks in the room. â??Stay with me.â? I cover myself up some more. â??Weâ??ve already been separated long enough. Justâ?¦stay with me a little while longer.â? â??Okay,â? it doesnâ??t take him long to make his decision. So I scoot over and give him the right side of my bed. â??Just stay with me a little longer,â? I mumble again as I scoot back into his frame and he tentatively wraps his arm around my tummy since my waist is kind of unavailable. I feel him kiss the back of my head before I go back to sleep. **************************************************************** Long time no see lol. -Aariyan.
