Chapter 18
Tyler’s POV
I’m going to take a nap until it’s time to go. I lie on the dream called a bed. If people could marry a bed, this would be the perfect husband for me. I fall into dreamland where unicorns are the creatures of the forest and ducks party a lot. I feel like an earthquake about to happen, quick go for the cliff. Wait, why the cliff. I slowly open my eyes and see my papa (birthfather) trying to hold in a laugh. That’s so not funny, I could have died, and the unicorns would become extinct. Wait what?
I glare at my papa, he just burst out laughing so hard that my dad comes to see what was wrong. When he looks at me, he bursts out laughing to. I look at myself in the mirror and blush. The pillow gave my hair a new hairstyle and I must say, I look fabulous! Any look looks great on me, I inherited great genes. I quickly get ready and head downstairs.
Its currently 2 in the afternoon and we are currently en-route to my apartment. My parents argued with me again about staying there, but I feel that I should be independent until I need them closer to the birth. I really don’t want to burden them. I’m in the car with Jason and Matthew. They seem to travel quietly; you get those people. However, I can’t stand being quiet for too long and that’s why I’m listening to my favourite rock band AC/DC. They glance at me now and then thinking I’m weird, but meh.
It’s now 3, we arrive at my apartment. It looks very empty because most normal people would be at work. “Thanks for dropping me off, bro”, I quickly exit the car. “Not so fast imp!” my brother stops me. I glare at him for calling me an imp, he just looks at me and laughs. Matt mutters something about his immaturity. I love the way that they interact with each other. I really wish I had a mate that I could share a bond like this with.
Jason kisses Matt and faces me, “let me take your bags up”, he tells me. I nod but realise that I don’t have any bags. Before I can protest about it, he pulls out three huge bags from the boot. “Where did that come from?” I ask him. “Papa went online shopping last night after you fell asleep. He told me to give you this, its pregnancy clothes. You will need it in the future.” He ruffles my hair. I’m so grateful right now, I feel so blessed that I have parents who care. It’s a big step from those people that abused me. Did they know that I wasn’t theirs?
I shake my head, “are you trying to tell me that I’m fat?” I ask him with a serious face. His face heats up and Matt falls down laughing. I can’t keep my laugh in. “Wait until I catch you. You better sleep with one eye open.” He tells me. I walk up to him and poke his chest. “Stop being such a meanie and come up”, we make our way into the building. Everything looks fine and every wolf bow to my brother. I think its because he’s basically the prince. I smile at all of them.
I unlock my apartment and go in. Everything is its normal place; LOL I sound like I haven’t been here in months. Jason walks around to inspect that everything is in order. I roll my eyes. I was gone for a few days. He opens my fridge and smirks at me. I wonder why…oh no! I left my chocolate pudding in there. I added gummy bears to it. I race to where he is and shut the fridge. He looks taken back and looks at me sadly. There is no way I’m giving it to him. “All I want is some chocolate milk”, he tells me giving me puppy eyes.
I open the fridge to give it to him but realise that I don’t have any. Before I can do anything, he snatches the pudding at makes a run for it. I huff and go after him. I reach my lounge and stop. Nothing has prepared me for such a scene. Jason is lying flat on his face with the pudding on the floor and all over his face. He must have tripped over my shoe that’s lying next to him.
I burst out laughing. I should be angry that all the pudding has gone to waste, but the sad look in his eyes is too much. I look at his face and double in laughter again. “That’s karma, b***h”, I tell him. He pouts and tries to stand up. He’s holding onto my couch, he’s about to stand straight, but Matt barges in and he gets a fright. He falls down again. I howl in laughter with Matt. I actually have to sit because it’s so funny.
He stands up again. “What happened?” Matt asks him. “I wanted pudding and Ty didn’t want to give it to me, so I had to resolve in stealing. I took it and was going to sit and enjoy it, but this stupid shoe just jumped in the way. Can you believe it?” he tells Matt, flabbergasted. Matt looks at him without any amusement. Jason gulps. “Jason, I’m so disappointed in you! You will clean this mess instantly! How can you rob a pregnant guy?” Matt shouts at him. I just smirk.
