Happily Ever After

Based after Ever After by Kim Harrison

I was sitting at the breakfast table with my hands wrapped around a cup of tea and my forehead on the table fighting the urge to throw up in front of everyone. The fact that I was drinking tea is a huge tip for everyone to see that I wasn't feeling well at all. I haven't told anyone that I've felt nauseous and vomiting for the past week or so knowing that they would jump to conclusions.

I had my husband Trent sitting to the left of me in the middle of a conversation with Quen and Jenks, with Ivy and Ceri having their
own conversation, but I was too distracted to tell or care what they were all talking about. Trent and I have been married for the past month 5 months. After I fixed the ever after Trent cancelled his arrangements with Ellasbeth realizing that he was in love with me and didn't want to marry her knowing he didn't love her but loved little old me. After a few weeks of talking and coming to grips with our feelings towards one another we knew that we wanted to spend the rest of our lives with each other and a few days later he proposed to me. Of course Ivy had a field day with making all the arrangements for the wedding, with a helping hand from Ceri. I made a few suggestions here and there but otherwise I let them handle everything else. The press was even more ecstatic with our announcement seeing as they always thought we were a couple back when we still hated each other. Following the wedding we all decided that Ivy, Jenks, and I would move into Trent's compound with Quen, Ceri and the girls as one big family. There were days when we all just wanted to tear each other's heads off but for the most part we loved each other as a family.

My stomach was in the mist of churning so bad that I had to groan aloud but gladly no one heard me. It seemed like I was losing the battle with my stomach and my suspicions were confirmed when I jumped up and ran for the nearest bathroom which was thankfully in me and Trent's room. I heard soft footsteps behind me but I was too busy puking my guts out trying to hold my hair back out of my face. Tiny warm hands took my hair from my hands holding my hair back for me as I continued to puke. I am surprised to hear Ceri singing softly for me to try to help sooth me and surprisingly it helped. I flushed to toilet and moved slowly to the sink to brush my teeth and splash cold water on my face before turning to Ceri and whispering, "Thank you".

Ceri's soft voice responded. "You're welcome." And then she continued with, "Rachel are you ok? You have been sick for the past few days, I'm getting worried."

Surprised that she even noticed that I had been sick I couldn't even form a thought let alone a sentence. I found myself saying, "You noticed?"

Immediately I thought, Well duh she noticed otherwise she wouldn't be so damn worried.

She nods and whispers, "Rachel honey I think your pregnant."

I turn away from her gaze and stare into the mirror. I looked like I had been throwing up and I looked tired. I grimaced and started walking towards the bed as I told her, "No that's impossible Ceri. I'm a demon and he's an elf, I don't think the two are compatible for having children together." I didn't know if I was saying this to her or to myself because to be honest the first day I started throwing up I thought I could be pregnant too for about 5 seconds before I realized it was impossible. Besides from the obvious of Trent being an elf and I being a demon, I can't get pregnant unless I am with a witch or a demon and that just was not happening. I loved my husband and my life as it is now and besides, me having children would mean that my children will be demons and I don't think I can handle that. I couldn't handle the demons from the ever after trying to take my child away from me for their own benefit. Before I found out I was a demon I still had hopes that I could find a male witch that could handle the chaos of my life and be able to settle down at one point and have a family. As soon as the reality set in that I was a demon and that my children would be demons I lost all hope of ever having children. I still hurts my heart that I will never be a mother, just the thought of it brought tears my eyes and having Ceri bring it up nonchalantly when she's already a mother hurts even worse.

"Rachel I've been through pregnancy and just recently, so I know the signs. Have you taken a pregnancy test?" I shake my head, and she continues, "You need to. Please, just to ease my mind, if I'm wrong then you can rub it in my face for the rest of our lives, but I just want to make sure ok, please?" Knowing not to even bother arguing with the tiny elf I agree.

"Fine. Do you think you can get Quen to go get some or have someone go get them and bring them to me? You know I can't hide anything from Trent, he always seems to know what I'm thinking. And please tell him not to tell Trent anything until I say so."

"Yes I can have him do it and of course your secret is safe with me and Quen we wouldn't disrespect your wishes for privacy." She added with a smile, "And I will be in here bright and early with the tests and to make sure you actually take them."

"Whoa wait, how are you going to do that with Trent here, he hardly ever leaves my side now unless he has to." Not that I mind. "Speaking of where is he"

"Don't worry I will take care of that and he was coming after you at first but I told him I would check on you. We should probably be heading back now before they come looking for us. How do you feel now?"

"Still nauseous but now I think I can actually eat something without throwing up. I feel a lot better than I did when we first went to breakfast. I just don't know what I should or could eat that won't make me feel sick." I said, getting off the bed and walking towards the dining room

"You can eat whatever is there to eat just don't over fill yourself. If you start to feel like you want to vomit again that probably means that you should stop", she said chuckling as she walked beside me. I stuck my tongue out at her and continued walking mumbling under my breath about pushy, stubborn, controlling elves.

As soon as we walked into the room all eyes we on me, I had to look down to hide from their gazes. Trent jumped out of his seat to embrace me in his arms and whispered, "Are you ok?" I nodded into his shoulders and he let out a sigh. He pulled back slightly to plant a kiss softly on my lips that had my stomach dropping and my lips tingling from his touch. I heard Jenks in the background making gag sounds.

When Trent touched or even kissed me as softly as he is now my body feels like it bursts into flames from all the passion he feels me with. My concentration is completely altered and focuses only on Trent.

As he pulled back my mind was already running wild wishing I could take him back to our bed and have my way with him. Sensing where my thoughts had gone he chuckled and I blushed turning bright red.

Ivy mumbles, "Get a room" from around her cup. I wanted to tell her, Gladly, but instead I stuck my tongue out at her. She and Jenks bust out laughing at me and as Trent lead me back to the table. I looked at the food on the table suddenly very hungry and start digging in, grabbing a few bread rolls, and lots of strawberries. I love me some strawberries.

"So Rache, where did you run off to so fast?" I paused wondering what I should say and thought it was better to stick as much to the truth as possible and said, "Thought I was going to puke and thought it best to try to make to the bathroom then do it at the table, but I'm fine false alarm." Anyone at this table that knew me well enough knew I wasn't fully telling the truth and that I was hiding something but all choosing to bypass it until they got a chance to talk to me alone. Out the corner of my eyes I saw Trent's tighten his eyes, and Ceri very deviously whispers in Quen's ear as I continue to munch on my small breakfast. I sighed internally. Today was going to be a long interesting day.

more will be coming just be patient and I will upload as soon as I possibly can. im also going to try the characters different POV in the next few chapters. thanks for reading!
