Megan rolls over to her side and presses up behind me. Since we found out I'm pregnant, she's been nothing but attached to me. Not that I'm complaining.
3 months.
My wife kisses up my jawline from behind.
I hum, "You awake?"
"Mmm-hmm. Just woke up." she presses more kisses on the back of my neck and my skin goes up in goosebumps. "You and babygirl good?"
"Yeah." I say. "Baby BOY by the way."
"I still stand by my guess. I know she's a girl."
"We'll see." Is all I say.
I sit up and she wraps her arms around my stomach, pressing kisses against it and saying a few "good morning" words to our baby.
The past couple of years have been a trip. Megan and I got legally married two years ago. We agreed on having children and held off on a ceremony until Baby is here. After getting legally married, we took the kids into account and moved back to Texas. We moved to a house rather than a penthouse close to my mamas so we can see her often and grow up close to her. She is getting older after all and we don't want to be a sea away in case she needs us.
Time goes on way too fast and it's honestly scary as fuck.
"So you not gon' give me no love?" I say in a semi-hurt tone.
"You that jealous?"
"Girl shut the hell up and give me affection!"
Next thing I know, Megan is engulfing me in a hug and a shit ton of kisses. I love this girl so much and I'm so happy we're expanding our family. I love her so much. She kisses my face over and over again.
"Hungry?"
I nod.
"Imma get sum started. YOU don't move."
"I'm pregnant not disabled, Megan. But yeah, imma stay here." I bring the blanket up to me and turn the TV on.
She quickly gets up to go to the kitchen.
"Baby, can you check that Julez actually went to school?"

I'm napping while Megan watches over me. I feel her slender fingers protectively over my belly.
I slowly blink open to see a little girl peeking at me from the bedside. Solange as a little girl to be expected.
"Hey, Yoncé."
"Hey." I respond.
I know I'm dreaming.
Little Solange twirls and jumps.
"You're having a baby, big sis." In nearly a blink, Solange morphs into an adult.
Just the way I remembered her being. She crouches down at my bedside and places a hand on my stomach.
"I'm sending you such a good boy. I'm surprised you already know it's a boy I'm sending."
"A boy from you?" I feel my eyes well up with tears at the thought.
For years I prayed to my sister for a sign that she was near. I asked for bees, yellow birds, orchids, just about anything. To hear that she's sending me my little boy is beyond what I could've ever imagined.
