My Little Angel

Chapter 10

Ever since Evie had thought she had gone into labor, Henry had gone into overprotective mode on his wife. He wasn't really allowing her to do much, all she did was basically sit on the couch, lay in her bed, and that was pretty much it. Henry wasn't even allowing her to cook anymore, he was doing that, along with all of the cleaning. Which she didn't mind that part, but still she was getting tired of just sitting around all day and doing nothing.

She sighed as all of her thinking was making her hungry. Or it was making the baby hungry. You know what? It was making both of them hungry, so Evie got up slowly as she snuck into the kitchen to go make herself a snack. She was craving a sandwich. She wasn't sure what kind of sandwich she wanted though. PB&j? Turkey? Bologna? Chicken? Roast Beef? They all sounded so good. With all of her thinking about food, she heard her stomach growl.

She slightly laughed as she gently rubbed her stomach. "Ok sweetie, mommy's about to feed you." She told her daughter as she went to grab a plate and put two slices of bread on it.

As she went over to her fridge and opened the doors, she realized that she still hadn't made up her mind on what kind of sandwich she wanted. She pursed her lips in thought as she continued to think. But once again, her thoughts were interrupted by her stomach growling. "I know you're hungry sweetheart, but mommy's still not sure what she wants." She said looking down at her stomach. "Oh what the heck! We'll just have a little bit of everything!"

Evie picked up almost all of the ingredients in the fridge. Then she brought it all over to the counter and put it all on the two slices of bread. On that sandwich she put peanut butter and jelly, bologna, roast beef, turkey, chicken, mustard, mayo, and ketchup. 

Then she went to sit down at the table to eat that sandwich of hers. And just as she was about to take a bite, Henry came into the kitchen and saw her and his eyes widened.

"What on earth are you doing in here!? I thought I made it clear that you weren't to do any cooking!" He said.

Evie smiled innocently at him. "I know you did, but the baby was hungry." She told him.

Henry sighed as he crossed his arms and shook his head at her with a hint of a smirk on his face. "Look at you, blaming our daughter and she's not even born yet. And what the heck is that?!" He asked pointing to the sandwich in front of her.

"A sandwich?"

"Yeah, I know that. But what did you put on that thing?"

"Oh, um, I put pb&j, bologna, roast beef, turkey, chicken, and a few condiments on it." She told him. Henry got a grossed out look on his face as Evie explained the sandwich to him. And he tried not to barf as he watched her take a bite out of that sandwich. Evie's eyes just about rolled to the back of her head as she found the sandwich delicious. "Mmm, this is so good! Babe, you need to try this!"

"Uhh, I'm gonna have to pass on that one." He told her before he walked out of the kitchen.

Evie shrugged her shoulders in response as she continued to enjoy the rest of her sandwich. "I don't understand how your daddy could pass on trying this sandwich." Evie said to her stomach. But just then, as she ate the sandwich she felt herself start getting more contractions. She winced in pain as she held her stomach. "Henry! Henry, get in here, now!"

Henry came running back into the kitchen as fast as he could. "What's going on?!" He yelled as he saw Evie clutching her stomach, clearly in pain.

"I'm having more contractions! I think this time I'm really going into labor, they're stronger than last time." She said as Henry helped her stand up.

Henry nodded his head unable to say anything. He helped Evie out to the car and get buckled in before he ran back inside to get the hospital bag and then he ran back outside and got in the car, throwing the bag in the backseat before driving to the hospital again. "Ok, maybe this time we'll actually leave with a baby." He said.
