Pregnancy for Nummies, chapter 4

"Is he your boyfriend?" Orden asks more persistently and I roll my eyes, he better let this go.1

"Orden, drop it and tell me why you're hear." I order and he glares at me with his darkly lined blue eyes.2

"I can't remember why I came here for, is he your boyfriend Ronald?" Orden asks me and Christian smirks, trying not to laugh.3

"Not that I know of, no, far out Orden, chill." I say and Orden crosses his arms, he looks like I broke his heart or something, I think he has a crush on me.4

"How come you and he are shirtless then?" Orden asks me and I sigh, sitting beside Christian.5

"We're shirtless because we can be, let it go." I say and Christian leans in close to my ear, his hand on my shoulder.6

"I think he is jealous of what we done, maybe you should kiss him." Christian chuckles and I wrinkle my nose up; I don't want to kiss bloody Orden.7

"No, he's not someone I'd be ever likely to kiss." I mutter into Christian’s ear and he laughs, kissing my cheek warmly.8

"Hey, if you aren't his boyfriend then why did you kiss him?" Orden asks scornfully and Christian stands up, his hands on his slender hips.9

"I am not his boyfriend yet but that is none of your business, so shut up and back off." Christian says and Orden looks shocked his arms on his hips too.10

"You really shouldn't butt into others people’s affairs, because there are a few people who would take that as an offence." Christian says and Jarrah stands beside Orden, they're good mates as a dog and human type thing.11

"Why doesn't Jarrah like you Christian?" I ask.12

"I don't know, it must be my arianos blood." Christian shrugs, pulling on a shirt.13

"I'm off to bed, I need some more sleep. Do you mind if I sleep in yours?" Christian asks me and I shrug, smiling at him.14

"Go ahead." I say and he leaves the room, the heartbreak on Ordens face makes me wince.15

"What Orden? What is up?" I question and Orden wraps his arms around my waist, crying into my chest.16

"Seriously Orden, I don't get you." I sigh heavily and he sobs heavily, trying to speak.17

"Stop crying and talk to me." I say, cruel but honest.18

"Why him and not me?" He sobs and I scratch my head.19

"I don't think I'm attracted to you, and you're only seventeen years old for crying out loud." I say and he pushes me away, black tears staining his pale cheeks.20

"You're the only one I thought didn't see me for my age and all that shit." He sobs and I cross my arms, sitting on the couch, I don't like seeing this boy cry.21

"Everyone sees age with people they don't lust after, I like you Orden, I just don't love you." I say and he storms out, slamming the door behind him.22

"Got to be cruel to be kind." I hear Christians voice and I look at him in the door way, his hand on his hip.23

"What the hell is his beef? I’m four years older that him.” I sigh and Christian sits on my lap, comfortable and warm.24

“How old are you?” He asks me, his fingers playing mindlessly in my hair.25

“I’m twenty one.” I answer and he laughs.26

“I’m thirteen years older that you.” He says and I blush, he’s thirty four? Holly crap he looks about twenty, not thirty, and that is probably why I will never survive in the magic world.27

“I feel like I’m aging too fast now.” I look at the floor and he kisses my ear.28

“I don’t think you are, you’re aging just right for a human. I think once you’ve reached the age you want to stay at, you’ll have plenty of vampire friends who will be willing to turn you.” He assures me and I laugh, that doesn’t sound like much of an assurance. Who wants to be hurt and die to come back as some kind of monster…? I must make a few vampire friends then, because I think I do.29

“Will you still want to kiss me if I get fangs?” I question and he laughs, tickling his fingers down the back of my neck.30

“I usually go for vampires; does that answer your question?” He looks directly into my eyes with his green ones.31

“I thought you didn’t like the biting thing.” I put my hands on his hips, waiting for an answer.32

“I like neck biting and inner thigh biting, the feeling of my blood being drained is nice with the right person, and the cock biting is a big no for me.” He shrugs and nudges my head to one side, exposing my neck to him.33

“It’s exciting to know that they can kill you any time they want, but they wont because it’s no fun when we go cold.” He chuckles and Jarrah pads up to me, I need to feed him and take the bloody big thing for a walk.34

“Coming for a walk with me?” I ask and he shakes his head.35

“I haven’t got any shoes and I’d like to keep an eye on the house for you, you never know with people.” He shrugs and climbs off my lap.36

“Why should I trust you with my house?” I ask, putting a leash on Jarrah.37

“The house won’t let me do anything with it even if I wanted too, its okay, its safe.” He grins and I sigh, fine, I’ll go for a walk on my own.38

“Taking that dog for a walk?” The doctor asks me and I look at the doorway where he is standing, and I nod.39

“I’ll come with you; I need to be out with nature.” He says, taking off his lab coat and walking to me.40

“See you soon elf, take care of my lover or there will be consequences.” The doctor says and I put my shirt back on, not a good day today.41

“Hey dog.” The doctor grins and pets Jarrah on the head; the dog closes his dopey eyes and leans against the doctors lean legs.42

“Do you mind if I hold the leash? I want a dog but my lover is allergic so I can’t.” He asks me and I shrug, that’s fine with me, the damn dog is rough on the leash any way.43

I hand him the leash and we walk outside into the warm sun, it makes me melt like sinking into a warm bath.44

“It’s a beautiful day, isn’t it dog?” The doctor is talking to Jarrah as if he is a human being, I don’t mind, it gives me a chance to be with my own thoughts.45

Jarrah barks, his whip like tail wagging and smacking me in the leg, it makes me wince.46

“Careful dog, your master may get pissed off if you keep doing that.” The doctor chuckles and Jarrah walks a little further ahead of me, so his tail isn’t hitting my leg.47

“So what do you do for a living kiddo?” The doctor asks me and I look at him, well at least he isn’t being bossy any more.48

“Hairdressing, not much of a living but I enjoy it.” I say and he laughs with me, it’s the first time some one has laughed with me not at me about my profession.49

“It’s a damn good profession if you’re good at it and enjoy it, I think I am a doctor because I enjoy it, not because my parents have forced me to be, it’s why I like it.” He says and I smile, he is an interesting character.50

“So what does your partner do?” I ask and he scratches my dogs lower back, kick starting the leg scratch thing.51

“He is a florist; he’s interesting to watch with the flowers.” He smiles happily and I look at him.52

“Isn’t it a bit rough with the sex three times a day? Doesn’t it get boring?” I ask and he shakes his head, wrinkling up his nose.53

“It never really get’s boring with him, it’s not all about sex, the sex is a fun meal, it’s just about us and how we love each other.” He shrugs, his other hand shoved into his pants pocket.54

“So what’s with the witch thing?” I ask and he laughs at me.55

“You’re a witch too silly, it’s just genetic and a great gene it is to have at that. We’re magic born, whether we want it or not.” He shrugs again and picks a rose from the garden next door to my house.56

The rose presses into his hand and becomes like a tattoo, the stem of it wrapping around his wrist, the rose on the back of his hand.57

“How did you do that?” I question.58

“I’m an earth element based witch; it was why I was attracted to my lover in the flower shop. I can make plants and animals my friends; make them do what I want. It’s a pretty harmless power in the hands of me, but in others, not so harmless.” He says and runs his fingers over the rose on his hand.59

“What am I then?” I frown and he shrugs.60

“I don’t know, that is for you to find out and come to terms with, just don’t abuse what ever power that you do have.” He says mysteriously and the grass seems greener in every yard that we pass, like he is making it like that.61

“So Jarrah is an interesting name, why did you name him that?” The doctor asks, his shoulder length dark hair hanging in a strangely lively way.62

“Coffee, I named him after coffee.” I laugh and he laughs with me.63

“I practically live off coffee now days, it’s hard to get time to sleep and eat between looking after my partner and work.” He sighs and stretches out, Jarrah stopping beside him.64

“Got any holidays stored up?” I ask and he nods.65

“I’m about to go to England to visit my parents with our baby, my mother is very excited. My father is not so excited; his only son having a hay relationship doesn’t excite him at all, even if he has a grandchild now.” He sighs and I pet his head, it makes him look at me funny.66

“I live with a dog.” I shrug and he laughs, it’s a pretty darn good explanation for the way I behave.67

“I don’t know where your hands have been after that little scene with the elf.” He teases and I blush.68

“On his waist, that’s it, I don’t want to know where your hands have been.” I say and he laughs.69

“They’ve been around my loves cock, so frikin what?” He grins maliciously and I blush harder, so hard that it hurts my face.70

“You’re a closet case; I have learned that it hurts your soul to deny what you are.” He says wisely and we arrive at the park, the doctor is very quiet and seems happy at the moment.71

“What are you thinking about?” I ask.72

“I’ve never been this happy in my life, it’s nice.” He smiles and sits on the bench, Jarrah lying at his feet.73

“I thought helping people made you happy.” I smile back and he kicks back, his hands behind his head.74

“It does, but I’ve never been this happy, to have my own family and some one who loves me.” He laughs and Jarrah looks at us, his eyes telling me he wants to be left off the leash for a little while.75

“No.” I warn him and he rests his jaw on his paw, gazing up at me.76

“You really should let him off the lead, he is an animal, and even animals need time alone.” The doctor says and rubs Jarrahs side with his shoe.77

“He isn’t very smart off the lead.” I mutter and the doctor laughs.78

“Trust me to bring him back and keep him in control.” He says, assuring and gentle.79

I let Jarrah off the lead and he just wanders around the park, not going any where out of our eye sight.80

“So do you like the elf?” The doctor asks me, watching the dog.81

“I don’t know, he feels really fucking good and I don’t really know much about it.” I sigh and he smiles.82

“If you’re lusting after someone then try it, it might turn into love.” He says and I look at him.83

“Are you talking from experience or as a medical stand point?” I ask and he laughs.84

“A bit of both actually, I don’t want to talk about hormones at the moment, I put up with them all day.” He chuckles from his chest; it’s a hearty laugh that makes me laugh with him.85

“So what is your specialty?” I ask and crack my knuckles, bad habit.86

“I help women give birth and so on and so forth.” He yawns and stands up, calling for Jarrah.87

“So your lover is the first male birth thing?” I ask and he shakes his head.88

“I help incubus every now and then.” He answers my question and puts the leash on Jarrah.89

“I’m going for a run, do you mind?” He asks and I shrug.90

“Go ahead.” I say and he goes for a run with Jarrah, he runs smoothly with the dopey dog by his side.91

I look out towards my street and I see Christian walking towards me, my heart jumps into my throat, to see him come towards me makes me realise I really want him.92

He smiles at me and I have to swallow the lump in my throat, if I talk I think I’ll get that good old teenage squeaky nervous voice thing.93

I wave at him and he sits beside me, wrapping an arm over my shoulder. It seems rather romantic sitting in a park and holding each other’s hands, cuddling close.94

He kisses my ear and I melt into his arms, sighing heavily.95

“Are you ok?” He asks me as he takes my chin and turns my face to his.96

“Yeah, I just didn’t like hurting Orden, he’s a good guy and all but I don’t see him like that.” I mumble and he runs his fingers through my hair, looking at my face.97

“It’s hard to see someone who you know is young as someone with sexual needs, but they do and sometimes you’re what they need.” He says kindly and I shake my head.98

“Orden can find someone else, I’m sure of it.” I reply and shiver as the afternoon breeze hits my bear arms.99

“What about you? What do you want?” He asks me and I blush, bringing my knees up to rest my feet on the bench, resting my legs against his.100

“I need to understand what I need before I can figure out what I want; I’m confused about things like this.” I sigh and he kisses my chin, gentle and caring.101

“I can tell you what I want.” He whispers close to my mouth and I shudder, this time not from the cold air but from the way he looks at me.102

“What do you want?” I ask and he nuzzles his nose against mine, his eyes closing.103

“I want someone who makes me feel safe, like you made me feel last night. I want someone who kisses me like you do. I want you.” He mutters and my heart stops in my chest, it’s hard for me to breathe.104

He kisses me, his upper lip bellow mine and he gently bites my lip, kick starting my heart into frenzy.105

His tongue slips into my mouth and it sends a jolt straight to my groin, making me gasp. His hand lifts from his lap and he cups my face, kissing me harder.106

That hand runs down my neck and his tongue distracts me again, the next time I realise where his hand is, it is too late for me to say stop, his hand is on my groin.107

I make a noise that pushes him forward, making him hold me tighter and my cock becomes hard in his hot hand.108

“We really shouldn’t be doing this at the park?” I protest weakly and he captures my lips again, I can’t deny what I want from him.109

“No, we shouldn’t but I want to.” He smiles sweetly and kisses my cheek warmly; it makes me close my eyes. He definitely warmed me up and made me forget about the cold wind.110

“This isn’t appropriate for a park.” 111

“I don’t care, I know you love it.” 112

“Please, can we at least wait until we get back to my house?” I sob with need and he wraps me in his arms, letting go of my cock.113

“Thank you.” I sigh in relief and he looks at me kindly.114

“You’re welcome.”115

The doctor runs to us with Jarrah and Jarrah growls at Christian.116

“What is his issue?” I ask the doctor and he smiles.117

“He feels his place in your heart is being threatened, he knew the second he saw the elf that you would love him.” The doctor says and I blush yet again, I do like Christian.118

“That seems rather ridiculous for a dog to do that.” 119

“It does, doesn’t it, but they still have feelings you know?”120

“Yeah I know.”I mutter and stand up, hugging my big arse dog.121

“I love you Jarrah.” I sigh and the big dog licks my face eagerly, I think I’m gonna have a big shower before I let Christian kiss me again.122

“Thanks.” I grumble and wipe my face with my shirt.123

“Let’s go back.” Christian says casually, wrapping his arm around my waist.124

“Okay.”125

I think I love Christian, the way he tastes in my mouth and the way he feels in my arms makes me want him again and again.126
