#Chapter 43 I'm going to have a baby

Rachel POV

Bella & Rachel's Apartment

Bruises ringed my upper arms. I touched them gently with my fingertips as I stared at my naked body in the bathroom mirror. Everything felt surreal as I tried to take in the changes in my body.

Despite growing up with a terrible father, I was never beaten. The bruises under my eyes used to be common when I was a teen as Patrick's antics often kept me awake nights, worried someone would come to our home to collect on debts he owed. I wasn't used to seeing literal bruises on my body though.

My arms didn't hurt so much as there was a deep soreness sunken into my muscles alongside Nathan's fingerprints.

I dropped my hands from my arms to give my breasts a speculative look. They were definitely fuller and my nipples were pebbled, flushed, too sensitive. I hadn't been so aware of my breasts since the first time I was taken aside by a teacher at school who noticed it was past time for me to be wearing a bra.
