My Light (Danisnotonfire / Dan Howell fanfic) [EDITING]

33- Blossom- Shopping

"Hey!" I say to my old friend. I am meeting my best friend, Rebecca, to go shopping. It's a Tuesday, so I have a day off work.
"Hi!" She waves. We hug and laugh. "How is Dan?"
"He's great! How's Jack?" I ask, Jack is Becca's husband. They got married about a year ago.
"He's good, work has been tough lately, but we are managing."
"Oh, well, anyway, let's get shopping!" I say awkwardly. Becca laughs. We walk into a wedding shop. I immediately go to the wedding dresses and scan some.
"B, won't you need the maternity ones?"
"Oh, no, Ellie will be born by February, and our wedding should be in March!" As I look back, one catches my eye. It's plain white with a sliver floral belt. The upper part is imprinted with lines, which makes it look ruffled. "Becca, I like this one!" I announce.
"That's nice. Try it on!" She suggests. I take it and go to the changing rooms. I slide it on easily. I peer at it in the mirror. It hugs my body nicely and shows off my features. This is the one I want. I step out the changing room and show it off to Becca. "That's the one, it's so beautiful!" She cries.

We pay for the dress and head to another shop. I need to buy a veil and some bridesmaids dresses. Dan and I have discussed having red, white and black as the theme. We head to the dresses and pick out some nice dresses. I'm going to go out with the rest of the girls later. Becca try's on all of the dresses. One of them is what me and Becca both love. It's a knee high red dress that has a built in red belt.
"You look wonderful!" I gasp.
"Thanks B." I hug her.

I shut the door and run upstairs to hide the dress. It's around 9pm. I fold it up and slide it into a plastic bag and then under the wardrobe. We bought some really nice white hair clips that go with the dress as well.
"Bo?" I hear Dan call.
"Yeah?" I call back.
"Wanna be in my liveshow?"
"Sure, let me get fixed up." I put on Dan's jumper and put my hair into a messy bun. I walk down stairs and sit next to Dan. He had already started the show.
"Say hi to Blossom everyone." Dan laughs. We kiss and cuddle into each other. "Is that my jumper you're wearing?" Dan laughs. I feel my cheek heat up.
"Maaybee..." I stretch out.
"You're so cute!" He murmurs. We answer a few questions before my stomach starts rumbling.
"Have you had food yet?" I ask.
"No, have you?" Dan replies.
"Nope, I'll make some now." I say, lifting myself off the sofa. I make my way to the kitchen and grab two plates. I search in the cupboards for some pasta, and to my delight, I find some. I boil some water and tip in the pasta.
"Let's see how dinner is getting on." I hear Dan say as he opens the door.
"Hey." I say.
"Hey, how's it going?"
"Good!" I reply happily. Dan sets his laptop down on the counter. He walks behind me and grabs my waist as I sir the pasta. He kisses my neck softly. I turn my head to kiss him. He kisses back, then walks back over to the laptop.
"People are saying aww. And Phanatron says get a room." Dan laugh slightly. "We have a room, you guys are just watching us." I laugh quietly. I walk to the fridge and get some tomatoes; I'm doing a homemade sauce. "Jenny asks: when are you thinking of having your wedding. Hmmm, I think March, of all goes well."
"Yeah, I kinda want the wedding after Ellie pops out." I giggle. Dan smirks.
"Robin asks: how far along are you?"
"I am 4 and a quarter months now!" I answer.
"5 months to go!" Dan whoops. I chop up the tomatoes before mashing them down to a paste. I add some flavouring to it. I scoop the pasta onto the plates and put the sauce over them.
"Grubs up!" I say.
"Mmm..." Dan says, jumping off the counter and on to a chair. I put the plate in front of him and sit next to him.

"I gotta go now guys, so say bye!" He says bye to many names, then stops the stream. He kisses me before getting up. "You're a great cook and you're gonna be to best mum ever." Dan says.
"You're gonna be a great dad, I know you will." I say truthfully.
"Thanks Bo." He says. He engulfs me into a hug and he kisses my forehead.

*Next morning*

I open my eyes and immediately shut them again. It's way to bright; did we not shut the curtains? I moan slightly. Luckily, I don't have to deal with morning sickness! I groan and swing my legs out of bed. My head spins slightly as I stand up, so I have to hold on to a wall to steady myself.
"Hey, are you okay?" Dan asks.
"I-I'm fine." I nod.
"Okay, I'll be in the bathroom if you need me." Dan says. I walk to the wardrobe and cringe as I see my body in the mirror. I know I'm pregnant, but my body looks horrible. I lift up my top and sigh. I'm feeling really insecure about my body at the moment. I feel my legs start to shake and my breath catch in my throat. Tears sting my eyes and my hand flies to my mouth to muffle my sobs. I can't tear my eyes from my torso as my panic dawns on me. I don't even notice that Dan has come out of the bathroom. "Blossom, why are you crying?" Dan asks frantically. My knees buckle, so Dan wraps his arms around my waist and turns my face into his chest, forcing me to look away from the mirror. "Blossom, you're body is perfect. It doesn't matter about the scars, it's doesn't matter about your shape, it matters about you. You're carrying a baby, so you're not going to have the best figure for a few months until she's born. But I promise you your body is perfect the way it is." Dan mutters, running his fingers through my hair as he knows that it soothes me.
"Thank you." I sigh, hugging Dan softly.
"I'll make you breakfast." Dan smiles, pressing a kiss to my forehead.

Today, we are going to start decorating Ellie's room. We need to buy some paint and the other stuff. I get in the car and rub my back a bit. My back has been aching a bit, but I guess that's normal for a 4 month pregnant woman. Dan gets in a second later.
"Is your back ok?" He asks worriedly.
"It's fine, I'm in my 2nd trimester, so it's normal." I say before I kiss his cheek.

We walk into B&Q's and head straight to the paint section.
"What colour do you want?" I ask.
"Pink, yellow or red I think are the best colours..." Dan suggests.
"What about, we get pink and red, and have the walls alternating?"
"Yeah, that sounds cool!" Dan stoops down and picks up two of each colour.
"Do you want me to carry some?"
"No, no, it's ok, I've got them." He says.
"Okay." I pick up some other colours in small tubs, I have an idea. We walk to the check out. The cashier scans Dan's body and bits her lip. I suddenly become very awkward. I step closer to Dan and link my finger with his. The cashier, Ruby, looks at me, then my stomach and sneers at me. She scans the items and keeps looking at Dan's lower regions as his hips can be seen from over the counter. I start getting angry. I kiss Dan's cheek and he wraps his arm around my waist.
"This item needs to be checked, sir, would you like to come with me to see why?" Ruby asks in a sickly sweet voice. I step forwards, but Dan stops me.
"Um, okay?" He says. She stands and leads him away, I have to stay here. I look at them going into a room. From behind the curtain, I can see her leap at him, pushing her lips against his and pinning him to the wall. I try not to move as tears glisten in my eyes. I see Dan shove her away and storm out of the room. Ruby quickly follows and takes her seat again. Dan shoves the can of paint into the bag.
"Have a great day!" She winks at him. Dan quickly collects the bags and drags me out the store. I keep my cool until we are by Dan's car. He turns me around and wipes the tears from my cheek
"I can't fucking believe her! She bit her lip, she was looking between your hips, she fucking winked at you and kissed you Dan!" I look down incase he did have an erection, which he did not.
"Blossom, Blossom. Calm down." Dan hugs me and kisses my forehead. "I was tempted to slap her too, don't worry. But seriously, you're the only one that can sexually arouse me." He laughs as he sees my eyes flicker down. I can't help but laugh. "And anyway, I love you and we are engaged, and we are having a baby. Why would I want to swap you for anyone else?" I nod and kiss him. "Come on, let's get some stuff for Ellie's room." He takes my hand again and leads me into a baby shop. I smile at the baby stuff. I rest my head on Dan's shoulder as we walk around.
"Right, first we need to find a crib." I say. "This way!" I announce. Dan grabs a trolly and follows me. We browse the different brands. Finally we decide on a white wooden crib. "We should get a crib mattress as well." I say.
"Yeah, oh, what about that red one?" Dan says, pointing at one.
"Perfect." He reaches up and grabs it, then dropping it into the trolly.
"What next?" He asks.
"A cradle, preferably portable." I read.
"Okay, um... What about this one?" Dan picks up a box. I look at the cover. It's a red wood frame with an elephant pattern on the fabric.
"Beautiful!" I exclaim.
"Like you." Dan whispers, I don't think he meant for me to hear.
"Thank you." I say to tease him. He blushes bright red. I giggle and kiss him. "Are there any baby monitors here?"
"I think so..." Dan answers. We walk around the store for about 5 minutes. We finally find them and pick up one that Issy suggested. "Did we pack the giant beanbag?"
"What the one that in the corner of our bedroom, why yes Dan, we did!" I laugh. "Why?"
"We could use it as a baby chair?"
"That's actually a good idea!" I praise him. He laughs.
"We can pick up the rocking chair that my parents had for me and Adrian..." Dan says.
"Ok, we'll do that then, as long as you have checked."
"I have!" I laugh and check the list again.
"We need a changing table..."
"Over here!" Dan says, he really does know this shop... We pick a matching one to the cradle.

We come out of the shop with:
• A crib
• A cradle
• A crib mattress
• A changing table
• Bed sheets that matches the changing table
• A baby monitor
• A waterproof mattress pad
• A small wardrobe (in a box that we will build)
• A pram

That's all we could get today, so now time to head home and do the room!
