Quietly, I opened the door to Adam's game room and stuck my head inside.

"Hey, honey, can you give me a hand real quick?" I asked quietly.

"Sure, I'll be right there. Just give me a minute. I just want to finish this real quick." he replied without taking his eyes off the screen for even a second to look at me.

Sighing, I went back to the kitchen and continued cutting the vegetables for the salad I was about to prepare. I was slightly annoyed that Adam couldn't pause his game for even a minute to help me out. It wasn't as if I had asked him to stop playing completely.

Half an hour later, there was still no sign of him, so I just decided to do it myself. But how? I thought about it for a moment and then got the steps from the garage. It probably wasn't a good idea, but there was no other way for me to get onto the countertop and reach the top wall cabinet at the moment.

"What the hell are you doing?" asked Adam suddenly behind me. Oh great, now that I was standing on the counter, his royal highness had decided to come out of his cave.

"I need the big salad bowl. And I can't get to it any other way." I explained to Adam as I continued to reach for the bowl.

"Y/N, you're pregnant. You can't just climb on the furniture right now!" he retorted with a huff.

"Oh, that's what it is? I thought I just got fat." I said sarcastically.

"Very funny. Now get down from there." spoke Adam.

"Fine." I grumbled. He stood behind me to support me so I wouldn't hurt myself.

Then he climbed up the steps himself to get the bowl down for me.

"Don't do that again, please." he said as he set the bowl on the countertop and turned to me.

"I asked you to help me. But you couldn't tear yourself away from your game once again. It would only have taken a minute. You could have taken a break for that long. After all, it's your friends who are coming over for dinner. But you haven't lifted a finger yet. Well, except for your controller and keyboard," I replied angrily.

"Whoa, calm down!" he said but his tone was not reassuring, on the contrary.

"Don't tell me to calm down! I have the right to be pissed off. You invite your friends over but have nothing to do yourself but play your stupid video games." I hissed.

"So you're going to forbid me to game now, Y/N?" he asked.

"No, of course not. All I want you to do is help me damn it," I replied loudly.

"Well, you could have just asked." he replied. Now that really pissed me off.

"I asked you! Apparently you've taken too many blows to the head. Your memory seems to be suffering already!" I snapped.

"Okay, you know what? I'm only letting you get away with this because your hormones are going crazy right now." he said and turned to leave the room.

"Don't you dare blame this on my hormones!" I retorted.

"Why not? What else is the reason you're so fucking overly sensitive?" he asked mockingly as he turned back to me.

"Maybe it's because you've been acting like a fucking asshole to me lately! If you don't like the way I'm behaving right now, maybe you shouldn't have knocked me up then!" I yelled at him.

Now I had enough and stormed out of the kitchen. I went into the bedroom and slammed the door shut. Afterwards I locked it before I went into the bathroom to take a relaxing bath.


Adam POV

I immediately followed Y/N to apologize to her. It had not been my intention to upset her and say those things. I was just in a bad mood because I had lost my game.

Of course, that was no reason for me to act so stupid towards her. She was probably right, I was an asshole.

I noticed that the door to the bedroom was locked, so I had no choice but to knock.

"Y/N, come on, open the door, baby!" I said but got no response from her. Instead, I heard the sound of water running in the bathroom.

Frustrated, I rubbed my hands over my face. Sometimes I could really kick myself in the ass.

Before I could think about what I could do now to get Y/N to talk to me, the doorbell rang. I went over and opened it.

"Hi, Adam, thanks for having us. How are you guys?" asked Roddy after we fist-bumped.

"Um... not so good actually. Y/N and I had a fight." I confessed.

"What? What were you guys fighting about?" Marina wanted to know.

"Well it was actually just a little thing, but somehow it got out of hand. And I said something pretty stupid to her," I explained to them ashamedly.

"What exactly did you say to her?" inquired Roddy.

"Um something about her hormones and how overly sensitive she's been lately," I explained, dropping my head low.

"You said what to her? You're not serious, are you?" Marina wanted to know, sounding very agitated.

"How stupid are you, Cole? She's pregnant darn it. Of course her hormones are on a roller coaster and she's a little more sensitive than usual. Her whole body is changing. There's a baby growing inside of her. Do you have any idea how much work that is? Of course not, because all you put into it was 2 minutes of work!" she grumbled at me.

"Hey!" I tried to defend myself.

"Oh, I'm not done yet! You better apologize to her and help her out every chance you get from now on. And you better be damn grateful that she's carrying your child. Hopefully she'll forgive you for being so insensitive." she continued. If looks could kill, I'd be a dead man.

"Of course I will," I promised her.

"Then do that right now. Babe, we better go before I give Adam an ass-whooping myself." Marina then said and they were gone again.

She was right. I really was an insensitive jerk. And I was grateful that she was carrying our baby and protecting it and growing it.

I quickly went in search of something with which I could pick the door lock. It didn't take long until I found something suitable and set to work.

After a short time the door opened, thank God. At the exact moment I entered our bedroom, Y/N came out of the bathroom. She was wearing only her bathrobe and went straight to the dressers with her clothes. She did not even acknowledge me with a glance.

I followed her and then wrapped my arms around her midsection from behind and rested my chin on her shoulder.

"I'm really sorry, baby! I know I'm an idiot. But I still hope you can forgive me. I swear I didn't mean it, I was just pissed off about my game. I love you and that little peanut. You know that, right?" I whispered in her ear and then kissed her gently on the temple.

"Yeah, I know. And I also know that I'm pretty demanding right now," she replied softly.

"You have every right to ask for my help. After all, you're doing the hardest work right now. I promise I'll try harder, Y/N! I'll do everything for you," I said.

"Really everything?" she asked and I heard the smirk in her voice.

"Yep, everything you want," I assured her.

"Could you get me chocolate chip ice cream? Oh and Pringles." she asked.

"Of course. And when I get back, we'll cuddle up in bed for the rest of the evening and watch a movie. And you can show me the plans for the nursery. It's about time we got that done." I replied as I turned her to face me.

"I like the sound of that. Well hurry up, mommy and baby want ice cream!" Y/N spoke laughing.

I gave her a kiss while my hands gently circled the sides of her baby bump.

Happy that she had forgiven me, I broke away from her and headed to the store to get the things for her cravings.
