15. Finding out

Christian

Aria went out so me and warren went hunting. It was only to catch a rabbit, don't worry, we let it go after. Once I got back to the house, I couldn't find aria. "Aria?" I called out. "I'll be down in a minute," she shouted back. "You ok?" I asked standing at the bottom of the stairs. "Yeah, all good here," aria replied. I shrugged and sat on the sofa. After a couple of minutes, aria came down and sat on my lap, she had one leg either side of my waist and my hands automatically went around her back. "We need to talk," aria sighed. "What's wrong?" I furrowed my eyebrows. "It's nothing bad, I don't think anyway," she looked away from my. I put my fingers under her chin making her look at me. "Tell me," I whispered. "I know why I've been sick for the last couple weeks," aria looked at me. "What may that be?" I gripped tighter on her. "We're having a pup," aria smiled with tears forming in her eyes. "A pup?" I ran hand through my hair. "Yeah," she nodded. I immediately cupped arias cheeks and kissed her. Our lips moving in perfect sync. "Best thing anyone has ever given me," I looked her in the eyes with a huge smile on my face. "Your not mad?" She bit her bottom lip. "Of course not. I'm going to be a dad," I kissed her again. After a while, a throat cleared behind us, making us look. Josh, James, jack and Patrick were all stood there with raised eyebrows. "Care to share the special news?" Patrick sat next to us. "Uh, I'm pregnant," aria smiled. "Finally. I thought you already knew though," Patrick frowned. "No I found out today," aria replied. "So you both haven't smelled your scent?" He pointed at us. "Uh no, why?" Aria laughed nervously. "Because your scent has changed. We've all smelt it. I'm surprised Christian wasn't the first to notice," jack joined in. I moved so my head was in the crook of arias neck and inhaled. Her scent was definitely different, she still smelled like cotton candy, mint and chocolate but it was somehow different. "That's the pup. Changing arias scent so everyone knows she's pregnant," Josh tells us. "You two need to get going anyway, go see the pack doctor so you know when to get ready for him or her," Patrick smiled at us. Aria climbed off my lap and I stood next to her. I entwined our hands and we both walk out of the house.

When we reach the hospital house, people gave us strange looks. "Is there something going on?" Aria looked around. "I don't know. I've never seen people look at me like that," I answered. A doctor greeted us by bowing her head as a sign of respect. "Alpha, Luna, what can I help you with today," a woman asked. "I took a pregnancy test today, it came out positive so we have come to make sure the test wasn't wrong," aria explained. "Sure, yeah, follow me and we can tell you," she nodded and turned around. Me and aria follow the doctor into a room. "Luna, if you lay on the bed and pull up your top, that will be perfect. I'll send a doctor in," the woman smiled then left. A few minutes later, another pack doctor came in, one that I knew. "Alpha, Luna. Very nice to see you under these circumstances. I'm aware-," she begins but when she looks at aria, her eyes widen. "What?" Me and aria say at the same time. "Luna, when did you find out?" She asked. Kelly is a good friend of mine, but seeing her like that kind of scared me a little. "Today, I've been sick for the last 6 or so weeks," aria told her. "No disrespect Luna but have you seen yourself? You have started to show, it's obvious now," kelly winced like she would get yelled at or something. "What does that mean?" I asked. "Luna stand up, let your top fall as well. Then stand in front of this mirror," Kelly sighed. Aria stood up and stood in front of a long mirror. "May I," kelly stood by aria. She nodded. Kelly pulled back arias loose top so it was a tight fit around her. "Luna, your pup has alpha blood, he or she is fast growing. As you can see, you've already started getting a bump," kelly bit her bottom lip nervously. "I didn't notice that before," aria whispered. I didn't know what to say or do so I just kept quiet. Kelly let go of arias top telling her to get back on the bed. "I'm really sorry Luna if I offended you, it wasn't my intention but if you when I saw you with your T-shirt lifted I thought you better know," she explained. "No it's ok. I'd rather you tell me these things and not keep them from me. All I want is for my pup to be healthy," aria smiled. Kelly turned on a screen then put this gel on arias belly. She got this weird wand thing then started gliding it around arias stomach low down. "The womb is low down alpha, it's not actually in the stomach," kelly laughed but kept her eyes on the screen. All of a sudden, this noise filled the room. "And that is one healthy heart beat," kelly smiled. I took arias hand in mine and we both smiled at each other. Kelly turned the screen to the side so me and aria could see. And there was a baby there, not very big but obvious enough for anyone to realise what it is. "Congratulations alpha and Luna. I'll be back with pictures," kelly told us. She gave aria a wipe to clean herself off. Not long after, kelly came back with an envelope. "Ok, the pup is very healthy. Your 6-7 weeks along. I'll see you in a month so you can possibly find out the gender. And no shifting. As much as you would want to, you can't. It can cause great harm to the pup and result in miscarriage. Other than that, keep up with what your doing. Once again, congratulations," kelly gave us both a smile. We said our thanks and goodbyes then left.

It started getting late, so I left my office and went to mine and arias room. I found her looking in the body length mirror with her top pulled back. There was a clear figure of a bump showing. Her hand rubbed over it as aria looked at it. I walked up behind her and put my hands over her small bump. I placed small kisses along her neck making her giggle. "We need to think of names," aria sighed. "Ok, what you thinking?" I put my chin on her shoulder. "For a girl, maybe Penelope, after my mum. And for a boy, Christian Jacob, after you and my dad, we can shorten his name to Cj," aria replied leaning against me. "I love them," I kissed her neck. "I wouldn't have it any other way," I hugged her closer to me. "Make sure you come up with good words to say to me when I go into labour, because I will actually hurt you if you say, 'keep going, you've got this, push'," aria looked at me with a serious face. "Don't worry, I'll come up with good words to soothe you when your in pain," I chuckled. "I'll make sure to tell our pup great story's of their pain in the ass dad," she laughed. "Maybe I won't say anything," I laughed as well. I moved us over to the bed, getting comfortable to sleep. "Goodnight little wolf, I love you," I pecked her lips. "Goodnight daddy wolf, I love you to," aria pecked my lips. "And night to my littlest wolf," I slid my hand under to covers to arias belly. We both laughed before actually going to sleep.
