Chapter 20

3 months later ( Graduation )

I was sitting down in my seat waiting for my name to be called. I couldn't wait until everything was over.

Ever since I heard that my dad was coming I've been antsy the whole day.

I didn't let him get a hotel and made him use the extra room in the apartment. I had organized everything in my apartment the way I wanted since I had a lot of free time on my hands.

He was supposed to be arriving today. I sent him my address so he could drop his bag off then come and see me.

I also made a lot more friends too. After they heard me say I know about werewolves everyone warmed up to me. Well mostly everyone.

There was this group of girls that wanted to try me and call me names because I was pregnant at 18.

I didn't let them slide d though. I made sure I knocked some sense into them hard enough to where they couldn't talk to me any kind of way. They deserved it to.

Anyhow, I look like a freaking giant marshmallow. Oooooo, some marshmallows sound sooo good right now.

I only have half a month left and I was excited. I thought I looked like a fine piece of a specimen and I was eating like a pig too. My friends stop taking me out to eat because I would eat three times of what everyone else ate. It's their fault they wanted to pay, and I was much obliged.

Speaking of food I'm starving. After this I'm going to make sure we go out to eat. But the main person I talk to like that is Skyler. She was my new best friend. Jordan wasn't even in the best friend category anymore. He was in the baby daddy category now.

Over the last few months I've learned that only like 12 people are humans, which I'm confused since it's NY. But that's why other people speak carelessly around them because they already know one way or another.

I still kept my grades in the A+ or A- range. I mean I don't have anything else to do at home but watch tv, stretch, or study. That helped me keep up my GPA, so I have a 4.1 GPA.

This allowed me to get some scholarships from some ideal places. I just hope I can take care of my child and go to school at the same time.

When they call my name I struggle to get up, but with the help of someone beside me I get up.

I slowly walk up the stairs so I wouldn't fall. I go and get my diploma from the principal and shake his hand.

I walk off to the other side of stage and sit back down in my seat.

After about 30 minutes of name calling and diploma getting the last person was finally called.

When we were dismissed I almost trip on my up, but I caught myself. I rush to the front of the school where my dad agreed to meet before someone stopped me.

"Hey Carter, where are you going?" The voice asked. I turn around and face Skyler.

"I...I'm g...goingggg to meet a friend of my dad." I say dragging my words. If I said I was going to see my dad and she seen me with him then she would know I was an alphas daughter.

"Okay? Well me and everybody else were going to head out to eat. Want to come?" She asked.

"Sure, I'll meet you guys there." I say.

"Okay I'll text you where." She said walking away.

I go back to speed waddling to the school gate. I swerved and dodged people the best I could before I saw my dad.

He saw me coming towards him and he looked a little shocked but he quickly opened his arms for me to hug him.

When I get to him I smash him in a hug the best I could.

I was so happy that the tears were just rolling.

"Aw, don't cry my beautiful baby." he said wiping my face.

"I...I know. It's just that I'm so happy." I said hugging him again.

" Babygirl, you're so big." He said touching my stomach.

" Yea. I'm bigger than I thought I was going to be." I said putting my hand on my stomach.

" Do you know the gender?" He asked. Now we were walking to the bus stop.

"No. I want it to be a surprise." I say locking my arms with his.

"Have you picked any names yet?" He asked as we approached the bus stop.

"No. I can't think of any good names that I like." I say sitting down on the bench. My back was starting to hurt.

"Well I think you should get a few that you really like for each gender and narrow it down." He says.

" I guess." I respond.

The bus comes up and I try to get up to get on, but dad pulls me back down.

"Huh? What are you doing? We're going to miss the bus." I say still trying to get up.

" No we're not because we're taking a cab." He says.

" Then why did you let us walk to the bus stop?" I ask.

"Hey. Never tell a pregnant woman what they can't do." He says putting his hands up in surrender. But you just did.

We get up and my dad calls a cab for us to pick us up.

After reaching the apartment building he pays, and we get out.

"You locked the door behind yourself?" I asked putting in the code.

"Yes I did. And here is your key." He says giving my key back.

"Thanks." I say opening up the door.

When I heard that he was coming I put the key on top of the door frame so when he arrived he could get in.

"Where did you put your stuff? How long are you staying? Do you want anything to eat?" I asked rambling.

"First calm down. I'm only staying till tomorrow night to not raise any suspicion. Lastly, you have to go out don't you?" He said back to me.

"But you have to eat something." I say back.

" I'll just order takeout." He says.

"But-" I started.

"No buts. Go relax and have some fun. It's your graduation." he said pushing me to the door.

"Bu-" I started again.

" Ah. No buts. I'm going to be here when you get back. I promise." He said opening the door.

Now I had tears in my eyes.

"You just got here though" I said sticking out my bottom lip.

"And I'm going to be here when you come back" he says pulling me into a hug.

"Okay." I say.

And he was right. He was there when I came back. I wanted to spend more time with him so I tried to stay up as long as I could.

In the end I fell to sleep earlier then I wanted.

The next day we spent as much time as we could together.

When it was time for him to leave I tried to buy some time, but it didn't work.

I'm really going to miss him.
