The Man with the Beautiful Voice

Time has Gone By

1 year into the relationship.

"Patrick?"

"Yes babe?"

"I think I'm gonna be sick?!"

"Ok let's get you into the bathroom."

Patrick leads me from the bedroom to the bathroom and comforts me as I get sick. I felt so bad for him having to watch me be sick. Lately I haven't been feeling well and I don't know why.

"Patrick, I think I need to go to the hospital?"

"Corey why?"

"Because I feel dizzy, I'm throwing up, and I don't want to keep feeling this way."

"Okay. Let's go."

On the way to the hospital I look down at my stomach and realize that it looks swollen. But my train of thought leaves me as we pull up into the hospital parking lot. Patrick helps me out of the car and put his arm around my should and kisses the side of me head.

"Everything is going to be ok."

"I know."

We get inside and Patrick goes to the woman at the front desk. He comes back saying there was a slot in 15 mins and he set that appointment. 15 mins went by quickly and I hear the nurse call me into the room. Patrick's helps me up and walks with me into the room.

"Ms. Smith, I looks like here that you said you haven't been feeling the greatest?"

"Yes. I have been feeling dizzy and getting sick a lot lately and I just wanted to make sure everything is ok?"

"Ok well we are going to run some tests and we will come back with results soon."

"Thank you."

I look up at Patrick who was on his phone. I snap my fingers at him to get his attention. He jumps and smiles at me.

"So?" He questions.

"So what?"

"I mean I'm worried that they may be something wrong, I don't want you to be sick of possibly worse."

"Patrick, I'm going to be ok. Now look at me. You don't need to worry because hopefully there's nothing to big that's wrong."

He looks at me with a smile and takes me hand.

The doctor soon comes in and says she wants to scan my stomach so they are going to do an ultrasound. I didn't question it so I got up with Patrick still holding my hand and we talked to the ultrasound room.

When we arrived I laid down on the chair and the doctor put this cold clear liquid on my stomach.

"Congratulations, Mr. Stump and Ms. Smith your going to be parents!" The nurse said excitedly.

"Oh my god, Patrick!"

He didn't answer all I could see was his eyes tearing up and we both sat there listening to our baby's heart beat.
