Heaven waits for no angels

AddiLynn’s P.O.V

I was still very upset with Andy as we walked back inside. It was nice to see everyone enjoying themselves, it was almost like one of those Christmas parties normal families have. The ones where there is a huge feast of stuffing, corn, mashed potatoes, turkey or ham, Christmas cookies, thousands more desserts. Then everyone gets together in a certain room listening to tacky Christmas songs that you only seem to enjoy at the beginning of the season, and at parties like this and give each other presents from the kindness and love of the bottom of their hearts.

The kind of party where everyone wishes each other the best feelings and actually loves each other. I’ve always imagined it as being there, and not only being able to feel all the love from everyone’s smiles and laughter, but being able to see it in the crowds as if it was something that has always been there like the Carbon Dioxide in the air.

I always wanted a family that would actually allow me to have a party and the feeling of joy and love all around. Someday, I will.

As I made my way through the crowd, going slower than Andy as I talked to everyone I passed and made sure there was nothing and no one to close to my stomach, I watched as Andy attempted to get the crowd’s attention. It took a few moments before I got up to Andy and had all the eyes on me. “If I could get your attention please.” Andy started, watching everyone still chit-chatting. “Excuse me?” I also attempted, but again, it didn’t work.

Ashley, the only one who had heard us the first time whistled and the room went quiet. Looking around at the dazed confused faces staring back at Andy and I, you could’ve heard a cricket in there. “Thank you.” I whispered and smiled at Ashley. “Well?” An old woman said in an urgent tone. I felt the eyes of various people on me as I secretly get the picture out of my pocket, making sure no one sees it until it’s time.

“Ready?” Andy’s smile whispers to me, I nod in agreement. I couldn’t help but smile back, Andy wanted to be a father so bad, but I was scared. I wouldn't go as far as saying that I wasn't happy about these twins, because I am. But I already have a daughter that I can't take care of, and its not fair that I am going to take care of them and not her. I wish she was here. My daughter, to be here with me and the man who really would be her dad.

“Did everyone get their gift bag?” Andy announced and I watched as everyone started to open them. It was a rush, like on the edge of being of the roller coaster track waiting to go down. Gasps and shocked faces filled the room. Seeing the spoons we engraved for everyone saying, "we're pregnant!"

“Pink or Blue?” I started, “Either will do!” Andy proudly added on. “We’re not having one baby,” I began watching already wide eyes get wider. “We’re having two!” Andy shouted as I held up my first sonogram. The room was quiet for a moment, then everyone cheered, some people cried, others looked closely at my stomach. I was wearing a shirt three times bigger than my actual size so I wouldn't give it away. Noticing the pondering eyes, I lifted up my shirt to reveal my small baby bump.

Notes

Sorry I have not updated in awhile. School is keeping me very busy and I'm currently working on a essay worth 240 points and after I get done working on that day after day, i am in no mood to write.
Enjoy
