《He's My BadBoy》Chapter twenty five

"What?" Sarah shrieks "when did you find out"
"Earlier today" I sigh "I mean I guessed before I took the test - not liking my usual favourite foods, naseau, it goes on and on"
"Tell me about it" she gives me a small smile "it's Ryders right?" She asks and I nod "have you told him?"
"Nope" I shake my head
"Have you told Mike?" I ask and she shakes her head
"How are you not freaking out?" She asks "I mean I'm married to my baby daddy and I'm freaking out"
"It hasn't sank in yet" I tell her honestly "and I really don't want it to because when it does I'm probably going to lose my mind"
"First of all, you need to tell him before you do"
"Sarah what am I going to do, I'm not in a stable relationship like you are. My mom will kill me when she finds out both her kids have babies" I panic
"Tal, it's fine, we're in this together and I know Ryder is a usually unreliable bad boy but when it comes to you and family he won't let you down"
I nod "I'll tell him this weekend" I laugh at the irony "how are we both pregnant at the same time, like trust us to do that"
Sarah laughs "I guess we both enjoyed the honey moon suits at the wedding"
I gasp smiling "Actually now that I think of it, it's totally your fault"
"What! How?"
"Well one your the one that gave me you 'brilliant advice' and two if you didn't have a wedding I wouldn't have been there in the first place"
"And then you wouldn't have met me so it makes it all worth it" she winks
We talk and I serve a few more customers before it's time to close the bar.

I didn't get up until twelve the next morning. I had a quick shower and done my morning routine. I decided on wearing a loose enough strap top tucked into a black leather skirt with some red and white vans and I tied my hair up into a long ponytail but decided against any make up.
I walked into the kitchen and seen a note stuck on the fridge from mom saying that she was already gone to work and she'd see me later. I took some eggs out of the fridge but suddenly felt sick so I dropped them on the counter and ran to the bathroom
"Amazing Talia, Forget your pregnant until you get sick" I mutter to myself after brushing my teeth "like what sort of idiot are you, you're 18 and pregnant with Ryder Smiths baby"
The reminder of the baby growing inside me also reminded me that I have to text Ryder and try to arrange to meet up with him today since I have a doctors appointment tomorrow and it's only fair he has the chance to come
I decide against the eggs and go for a simple bagel instead before going over to Emily's house
"Hey, you're favourite babysitter has arrived" I grin, a fake one nonetheless, the last thing I need is for Emily to find I'm pregnant and get the whole 'why didn't you learn from my mistakes' speech - but it doesn't mean I'm not panicking and ready to cry any second
Over exaggeration? I think not
"Hey T" Emily grins "so Alex is picking me up at 2 and we should be back by 6"
I nod "that's alright, I might bring Oli out for awhile"
She nods and looks out the window "Alright Alex is here, I'll see you later and have fun"

"You too"
I picked Oli up from his play pin "hey little man" I tap his nose and make him laugh "guess you're stuck with me for the day"
I put Oli down for his nap half an hour later so I decided to FaceTime Ryder because his location was at his place
"Yo" he says answering the FaceTime looking like he just woke up
"You look like you just got out of bed" I laugh
"The girls just gone" he winks
"From your dreams maybe"
He laughs "whatever"
"You free today?" I ask and Ryder nods so I continue "can you meet me at 4"
"Yeah where?"
"Gracies" I gulp. Gracies is a cafe not far from here so me and Oli could walk
"Everything alright?" He asks obviously sensing my awkwardness
I nod with a smile smile "mhm"
"Alright see ya then"
"Bye" I say before hanging up
I didn't do much before we had to go meet Ryder. Once Oli got up I fed him and then he played with his toys but I couldn't help the feeling of nervousness that was running through me - Is this going to be my life? Am I actually going to have a baby?
No shit Sherlock, you're pregnant.
I put Oli into his pram and lock the front door on my way out. When we get to the cafe Ryder is sitting at one of the tables outside with two mugs on front of him
"Hey" I say as I sit down on front of him
"Hey" he says and the looks at Oli who is smiling up at him from his pram "hey little man"
"I got you a drink" he says directing his attention to the mug on front of me "coffee with a shot of tequila" he winks
"Thanks but you can have it" I say pushing it towards him
He gives me a confused look "Talia Ramsay not taking a chance for a drink?"
"I'm babysitting" I make up the excuse
"It's one shot you're not a light weight"
"It doesn't matter"
"No there's obviously more too i-"
"Ryder I'm pregnant" I snap without thinking and regret it straight away
His face drops "what?"
"Don't make me say it again"
"You're joking" he laughs probably hoping I'm joking "you don't look pregnant"
I shake my head "I'm not showing yet"
"But you're pregnant"
"Like five weeks pregnant"
He nods like he's finally accepted that I'm telling the truth "When did you find out?" He asks his voice quieter than usual. He avoided eye contact instead he just looked at his coffee
"Yesterday" I say in an almost whisper
He sighs "what are we gonna do?"
"I don't know" I softly say "but I have a doctors appointment tomorrow morning at 11 if you want to come"
He nods "Of course. I'll pick you up at 10:30 and drive"
"Thank you" I say and he gives me a confused look "for not running off like most people would have done"
He shakes his head "Neither of us planned this, we're both as hopeless as each other. I can't just blame you when I'm just as much to blame"
"On the other side, my mom is going to murder us"

Child of Dusk
Life can be cruel, especially to those who don't fit in. But what would you do if you were given a second chance? Tim was a nobody during his time on Earth. As a penniless orphan with no friends to speak of, life was tough for him in his little Arizona town in the '90s. He'd utterly lost hope for the future until one day, he was reincarnated as Alvanue, beloved daughter and heir to the Starlit Throne of Silthonduen. Now, Alvanue has everything a princess could ever want: a loving family, loyal comrades and an entire kingdom at her finger tips. But what good is a kingdom when there's a whole world of magic and mystery out there to explore? *** Ok! Disclaimer time. I do edit my own work and I do not have a beta reader, so please feel free to point out any errors or plot holes (politely, of course). Each chapter will be around 4,000 to 6,000 words long and while I was posting every day at the beginning, I think I'll cut that down to once a week for now, excluding bonus chapters! I really don't want to get burned out. I started writing this because I love world building, so this is gonna be heavy on lore. If you're not into that, there's still a ton of character progression and action to look forward to! It's going to be slow at the beginning, but I promise it will pick up eventually. Thanks for checking my story out, I appreciate it a lot!

Iron and Wood - A Tale Of Empire and Clans
For centuries, the Midlands had been split into fragments. A once glorious, united Empire has become a shadow of its former self. Unity has not returned, and not for the lack of trying. The greatest of these successor states were the Li Dynasty to the south, the rulers of old, and the Emerald Empire to the North, with its vibrant vitality. Unity is the end goal, and both will sacrifice anything to attain this elusive dream. For unity would surely solve the conflict that had long plagued this once prosperous continent. The Ironwood Clan was a prime player. Some would consider them the ones holding the reigns to the horse named 'Unification'. Iron and wood were the backbones of civilization; similarly, the Ironwoods were the backbones of the Northern Empire, and by extension, the people of the Midlands. Their methods, as questionable as they might be, had strengthened the North. Yet, were they enough? In the midst of it all, a young Ironwood who had lost his path must once again find his way. For the sake of his own wellbeing; for the sake of his clan; and for the sake of the Empire and its subjects. However, is he willing to sacrifice for the good of all? Is he willing to condemn some for the sake of others? Is he willing to make the right, albeit harsh, decisions? Only the heavens would know. Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, businesses, events and incidents are the products of the author’s imagination. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental. Additionally, any views and beliefs expressed by the characters are not the author's own. The story is also not an endorsement of any actions taken within. The 'profanity' and 'sexual content' warning tags are there to be safe (and to leave room for potential future changes), but for now these two things are not inside this novel. This is my take on 'cultivation', though it might be somewhat disconnected from the general idea of the genre. Release schedule: Two chapters a week. The cover was created using wombo art. While I believe that creations using the app are in the public domain, if that is not the case, I will take it down.
