8 months later
Charlie and Amelia kept their relationship to themselves the only people who knew were Jay and Alison. Amelia kept working as a teacher, giving everyone vague and brief answers about her pregnancy not waning to raise any questions. Charlie started to sort her life out which means she got to graduate. She has been sober for 212 days ,7 months and it's the best decision she has ever made.
Charlie has been recently working as a mechanic and doing some shifts in a night club which she hopes to take over someday. Amelia is not happy with the idea of Charlie working there scared she might relapse and go back to being her old self. But Charlie hasn't let her down this far and she's not planing to.
Amelia walked into the apartment throwing her work bag on the floor then dramatically falling on to the couch. 'Honey I'm home' she says sarcastically. Charlie slowly walked out to try and see what kind of mood Amelia is in. Recently her pregnancy hormones have been all over the place. One minute she's horny and wants to have sex all the time. One minute she's crying in Charlie's arms. And the next Charlie is the worst person on earth. Charlie has learned not to back chat her when she's in one of her moods as it didn't end up well for her.
'Hey baby how was work?' Charlie asked taking a seat next to her. 'It was awful. People kept asking me questions and I almost slipped up saying your name. And my feet are huge and are really starting to hurt' Amelia moaned. Charlie grabbed Amelia's feet taking off her shoes and started to massage them. 'Not long to go now love, you're doing really well' Charlie says with a smile.
'Have you done the laundry?' Amelia's questioned. Charlie's heart began to race. Amelia had asked Charlie to do the laundry for 3 days and she keeps putting it off saying she'll do it later. But that has now come back to bite her in the ass. 'Look I was gonna do it before you walked in and...' Amelia cut her off by putting her finger in the air to silence Charlie.
Amelia removed her feet from Charlie's hand and started to walk to the laundry room with Charlie following closely behind her. 'Love just sit down I'll sort it out' Charlie says. Amelia laughed then threw the laundry on the floor '3 fucking days I've been asking you to do this. And it still here, how the hell are you meant to raise a child if you can't do one simple task I ask you?! Amelia says her raising a voice.
'Look I'm sorry okay, I will do it now I've been busy with other stuff Amelia'. Amelia just rolled her eyes and walked off from Charlie. 'If you think we're having sex anytime soon think again you've royally pissed me off Charlie'. She ran after the older woman 'woah no sex, I've said I'm sorry darling' she spoke in a soft voice with pleading eyes. 'Yes and I forgive you but you still ain't getting any' she patted Charlie's cheek and walked away.
After Charlie had done the laundry she went to find Amelia, she wasn't in the bedroom or the living room. So Charlie went to the babies room and found her sitting on the chair in the corner.
She knelt down in-front of Amelia and took her hand and kissed it. 'What's the matter love?' Amelia just looked at Charlie then sighed getting up pacing around the room. 'Do you think we're ready Charlie like really ready?' She asked biting her nails. Charlie was confused where all this had come from. They had planned everything together. 'Did someone mention something at school?' Charlie asks. Amelia just shakes her head. Then goes to walk off.
'Hey hey chill baby okay, we're in this together. And we're gonna be amazing parents no matter what anyone says. And I'll be with you for every step of the way' Charlie says with a smile Amelia just hugs the girl and starts crying.
