Chapter Twelve: Feelings

Wyatt's Pov

Malia quickly left and we all looked confused. Who's Emily?

I looked over at the zombie girl, I think her name is Eliza and walked up to her, Willa was behind me.

"Hey, do you know who this Emily girl is?" I asked.

She looked at me and nodded, "that's Malia's daughter" Eliza said.

Me and Willa's eyes widened in shock. Malia has a daughter, at such a young age.

"She has a daughter?" Willa asked, "yeah she does" Eliza said.

"Who's the father?" I asked, "sorry but that's not my place to say, you should ask Malia if you want answers" Eliza said.

Me and Willa looked at each other and before we could ask anymore questions she walked away from us.

I looked at Willa, who was still in shock. "I didn't know she had a daughter" I said, "none of us did, that's shocking" Willa said.

"Do you think the father is her ex boyfriend? I mean she did mention her ex back at the library" Wynter said.

"Oh that's right" I said in realization, "go to her house and ask her for answers" Willa ordered.

"Fine" I said. I quickly walked away and followed Malia's scent.

I never knew Malia had a daughter, but then again she was probably scared to tell us.

I need to get some answers about her daughter and the father. I just hope she's not with anyone at the moment.

Back At Home

Malia's Pov

I finished changing Emily's diaper so now we were in the living room, watching some movies.

Missy and Dale were out for dinner and wouldn't be back till later tonight.

Addison was sleeping over at Bree's house, so it's just me and Emily right now.

I bounced her on my lap to keep her entertained and happy while she watches the movie.

I love seeing my daughter so happy and laugh. It always puts a smile on my face.

Just then I heard the doorbell. I was confused, did Addy or her parents forget something. 

I picked up Emily and walked over to the door. When I opened it I was shocked by who it was.

"Wyatt?" I asked, "hey" Wyatt said with a small wave.

His eyes wandered to Emily and I got a little nervous. 

"What are you doing here?" I asked, "well I was hoping to talk to you, if you're not busy" Wyatt said.

I smiled and shook my head, "not busy right now so we can talk, come inside" I said. He nodded and came inside.

I closed the door and walked to the living room, Wyatt following behind me.

I turned off the movie and gave Emily her stuffed animal to keep her busy.

"Wow....you really are a mother" Wyatt said.

 I smiled nervously and nodded. "Yeah, it isn't easy but I manage" I explained.

"She's really cute, she looks like you" Wyatt said. 

"She got it all from me, the only thing she has of her fathers is his hair color" I explained.

"If I may, can I ask who the father is?" Wyatt asked. 

My entire expression changed, I was clearly angry at the mention of his name.

"I don't ever, ever, want to talk about him, he's dead to me" I explained. 

Wyatt looked at me in shock but nodded in understanding.

"Can...can I hold her?" Wyatt asked nervously. I thought about it before agreeing.

I handed Emily over to him and he gently took her in his arms.

Emily stared at him before smiling and giggling. My heart nearly melted at the cute scene in front of me.

"She likes you" I said, "that's good, I really didn't want her to hate me" Wyatt said with a smile.

"You should be happy, usually when she meets new people she either starts crying or bites their fingers, she must really like you" I explained.

Wyatt smiled as he held Emily tighter in his arms. "Hey there kiddo, my name's Wyatt, nice to meet you" Wyatt said.

Emily giggled and and snuggled closer to him

I placed my hand on my heart and smiled, this is such a cute moment.

Wyatt smiled and hugged her closer to his chest. "You're really beautiful kiddo, just like your mother" Wyatt complimented.

I smiled at him and blushed deeply. 

'He thinks I'm beautiful' I thought.

Emily giggled and clapped her hands together. Wyatt laughed and bounced her up and down, making her giggle even more.

'He's really great with kids, he would be a great father' I thought with a smile.

Emily soon stopped giggling and closed her eyes, she let out a small yawn and fell asleep.

"Aww, she's tried" Wyatt said, "she needs her nap" I said.

Wyatt nodded and handed Emily back to me. I took her in my arms and kissed her head.

"I'm going to put her to bed, we can talk when I get back" I said. He nodded and I walked upstairs.

I went into Emily's room, making sure to be quiet so I don't wake her up.

I gently placed her in her crib and covered her with the blankets. I grabbed her teddy bear and placed it next to her.

I smiled and kissed her forehead and gently stroked her hair.

"Get some rest princess" I whispered.

I smiled before quietly walking out of the room, quietly closing the door and walking back downstairs.

"She's sleeping like an angel" I said as I sat down on the couch, "that's good, she must've been tired" Wyatt said.

"Well she was playing all morning and afternoon so it's fair to say she's exhausted" I explained, giggling lightly.

He smiled at me and sat up straighter, "to be honest it really surprised me, you being a mother at such a young age" Wyatt said.

"I get that a lot, but I don't mind, I love Emily and my friends are here supporting me" I explained, "does everyone know about your pregnancy?" Wyatt asked.

"I mean, my friends know, and well everyone at school knows since I always take her out for fresh air so yeah, everyone knows I'm a mother" I said.

"Do they bother you about it? Do they pick on you?" Wyatt asked.

I smiled and shook my head, "no they don't, it's either because they understand my situation or because they know if they talk bad about my daughter I would beat their ass in seconds" I explained with a smirk.

Wyatt smiled and laughed, "you really are sassy, aren't you?" Wyatt asked and I nodded.

"And proud of it" I said as I flipped my hair. Wyatt laughed even more and shook his head.

"No wonder Willa likes you, you two are almost the same" Wyatt said and I smiled.

"Well, besides all of that, you said you came here to talk?" I asked and he nodded.

"I mostly just wanted to talk to you about your daughter since I didn't know about her at first, but it was also to ask some questions about you and your life back at your old hometown" Wyatt explained.

I sighed and shook my head, I knew he was going to ask about that, but part of me was hoping he didn't.

"What do you want to know?" I asked.

"Well, can you tell me who your ex boyfriend is and tell me if he's the father of Emily?" Wyatt asked.

I ran my hands through my hair in anger and tried my best to stay calm. I took a few deep breaths before turning my attention to Wyatt.

"His name was Ben, my ex boyfriend, and yes he is the father of Emily" I said.

"What happened between you two, if you don't mind telling me?" Wyatt asked.

"Me and Ben were together ever since we were 13 years old. We were the perfect couple back at my old home. I loved him and he loved me, everything was perfect" I explained.

Tears already came out of my eyes as I mentioned Ben, something I always wanted to avoid doing.

"Until these four new kids came at our school. They were the bad kids, well they were only labeled as bad from everyone else, but me and Ben treated them like normal people. We were nice to them" I explained.

"I noticed Ben was getting close with one of those four kids, her name was Mal. You can say I got a little jealous" I said with a small chuckle.

"I talked to Ben about it since it kept on bothering me to see them together, but he reassured me that there was nothing going on between them and that they were just friends. He promised that he loved me and only me, and I believed him" I explained.

I wiped my tears away, not wanting Wyatt to see me like this. "What happened after that?" Wyatt asked.

"I found out I was pregnant. I started feeling sick and started throwing up once in a while, I told my sister about it and she thought I should take a pregnancy test. When the test came out as positive I was in shock. At the same time I was happy, but also nervous because I was scared of what my parents would think, what Ben would've thought" I explained.

"The only people that knew was my sister and friends. My sister told me I should tell Ben since it wasn't right for me to keep my pregnancy a secret from him. I agreed and decided I would tell him after his game" I explained.

Wyatt moved closer to me and wiped my tears with his hands. I smiled at him.

"After his game ended I was going to tell him, I was ready to tell him but that was when he confessed his love to Mal, he confessed to her to the entire fucking school. He sang for her and danced, he practically rubbed it in my face about how much he loved her" I explained.

I couldn't take it anymore. I let out small sobs and more tears streamed down my face. 

Before I knew it Wyatt wrapped his arms around me and pulled me into his chest.

"I'm so sorry you went through that, nobody should go through something like that" Wyatt said as he hugged me tighter.

I smiled and snuggled closer to his chest. He was so warm and he smelled really nice, his arms were wrapped protectively around me, like he wanted to protect me from any danger.

I felt happy, I felt safe with him.

"Thank you Wyatt" I said, "anything for you" Wyatt said as he placed a kiss on my head.

I blushed but smiled and snuggled closer to his chest. I really don't want to move from this position.

After about six minutes I pulled away from the hug and wiped my tears. 

"Thank you Wyatt, thank you for making me feel better" I said.

He smiled and placed his hand on my cheek. His hands were so warm and soft.

"Anything for you" Wyatt said with a smile. I smiled back at him.

We sat in silence for a while, staring into each other's eyes. "Well, it's getting late, you should get home before your sister starts to worry" I explained.

"Oh yeah, you're right" Wyatt said. We both got up from the couch and I led him to the door.

"Thanks for giving me some answers about your old hometown, I hope I didn't bother you" Wyatt said.

I smiled and shook my head, "you're never a bother to me Wyatt. If anything I really enjoy your company" I explained.

His cheeks became red and he smiled. "I should get going, see you at school tomorrow" Wyatt said.

"Of course, see you tomorrow" I said. He smiled at me before walking up, he stared at me before kissing my cheek.

I felt myself blushing redder than a tomato. 

"See you tomorrow beautiful" Wyatt whispered. I shivered at his voice and he smirked before walking away.

I stood there in shock before walking back inside and closing the door.

'What the hell is going on with me?' I thought. I touched the cheek where Wyatt kissed me.

Am I starting to catch feelings for Wyatt...?
