Knives & Pens

Pandora was just finishing up decorating Skye’s nursery that Monday evening after work, she had finished buying everything she needed with the help of Ashley. Skye now had more clothes, toys, baby lotion and shampoo, diapers, baby wipes, blankets, etc. She was standing at the crib, smiling down into it, picturing her daughter laying there. It wasn’t long now, three and a half weeks. Her stomach was huge and she could not see her feet anymore, it was obvious she was nine months pregnant and she looked like she was about to pop any second.
“What’s up?” A female’s voice asked, Pandora turned her head to see Aryana entering the room with a smile. Pandora smiled and looked back at the crib, Andy liked Aryana a lot and she was with him everywhere he went. It was cute actually and Pandora was glad he liked her a lot, they were perfect together in her opinion.
“Just looking around.” Pandora replied when Aryana joined her side, they were being friends and Andy could see that and he was glad they were.
"The nursery is beautiful, I'm sure Skye will love it." Aryana said, Pandora smiled and nodded in agreement. The nursery did turn out great and Pandora was positive her daughter would enjoy it, she just wanted Skye to be happy.
"I hope so."
"What are you two up to?" Andy asked at the doorway with a smile, Aryana turned and approached her boyfriend, wrapping her arm around his waist as he did the same.
"Just talking." Aryana replied when he kissed her forehead, he looked at Pandora afterwards.
"How are you feeling?"
"Tired." Pandora replied, her feet and back were killing her. Her stomach felt like a bowling ball and carrying it around twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week for nine months became tiring. Before Andy could say anything the doorbell rang, he sighed and removed his arm from Aryana's hip and headed downstairs to get the door.
"I hope you know when Skye is born I'm going to hold her like crazy." Aryana told Pandora.
"I'm sure everyone will, so you won't be the only one."
"Hey Pandora?!" Andy called from downstairs, Pandora left the nursery with Aryana following behind her. She reached the stairs and she saw her parents standing at the doorway with Andy standing a few feet from them, James looked sober but Pandora wasn't completely sure. Andy's arms were crossed over his chest and he was looking at them with anger, he did not want them here, how did they even find his house?
"What are you two doing here?" Pandora said, gripping the stairs railing and making her way down the stairs. Her father's eyes looked at her huge stomach and the expression on his face showed disappointment, Gail smiled but Pandora didn't trust the smile.
"We came by to see how you were doing and our granddaughter."
Andy chuckled and uncrossed his arms, heading into the living room to get away from them so he didn't start anything. They didn't care about Pandora nor their granddaughter, hell they didn't even deserve the word "grandparents." Pandora stopped walking when she reached the last step, she still stood a foot or two away from her parents."We're fine, but how did you find us?"
"We didn't, Sierra did. She just told us where you were." Gail replied, Pandora raised her eyebrows a bit.
"How did she find us?"
"She was driving by with Liam and saw Andy outside, so she put two and two together."
Pandora sighed softly while Aryana walked into the living room to check on Andy, he was frustratingly cleaning.
"Well, thanks for stopping by."
"We brought a baby shower present." Gail said, James stepped forward and handed Pandora a pink bag with pink tissue paper. Pandora took the bag but she didn't open it just yet, she wanted her parents gone.
"Well, we'll get going. We just wanted to check on you, we'll see you soon. Bye Pandora." James said, he opened the front door and stepped outside while Gail followed. Once the door shut Andy appeared again with an expression of concern.
"What's that?"
"A baby shower present." Pandora replied, walking towards him and into the living room. She took a seat on the couch and pulled the tissue paper out, then she reached into the bag and pulled out two plain white onesies, and two plain light pink onesies.
"At least they got you something, that must show something." Aryana said, Andy crossed his arms and shook his head.
"I don't trust them, they want something. They don't even deserve to be called "grandparents", if they are one." Andy said, shaking his head.
"Maybe they want to make things up to Pandora, people do change babe." Aryana told Andy.
"I know that baby, but I don't trust them." Andy said, then he looked at Pandora who was looking at him.
"Should I let them in Skye's life? I feel like it would be wrong to keep Skye's grandparents away." Pandora said, frowning a bit. Andy let out a breath then took a seat beside her, putting his arm around her and pulling her closer.
"Listen, you need to think what is best for Skye. If you think it's best if they stay out of her life then that's best, if you think it's best they're in her life then it's best. I'll support you either way."
Pandora nodded and bit her bottom lip, she knew she had a decision to make. Besides they already knew where Andy lived, what would happen now?

Notes

I know it's short, but the chapters get longer after this one. This one was just a filler basically. This story has been going on for a year and sadly it will be ending very soon. I have maybe three or two more chapters to write and then it ends. I am sad, but proud and happy that I was able to finish it. Leave your opinions!
