My Best Friend's Boyfriend

Chapter 18

*Emory's Pov*
"Where you going all dressed up this morning?" Kendrick asked. "My appointment is today, Kendrick at 12:30. I told you yesterday." I said. "Well I forgot! Dang." He said. "You have fifteen minutes to get dressed and I'll wait in the car." I said. I decided to wear a cute top and a maxi skirt today with some wedge heels because it was incredibly hot. I turned on the air and put on my sunglasses and I was out like a light. I woke up when I heard the car door open. "Which way I need to go?" He said. I told him the directions and went back to sleep. "Em. Wake up we are here." Kendrick jolted me out of my sleep and I got out of the car. I walked up to the desk and told her my information. "Okay, Ms. Daniels fill out this information and bring it back up to the counter." I sat down next to Kendrick in the cold waiting room. I don't even remember coming to the doctor, I don't even remember being sick ever. "Ms. Daniels huh we are going to have to change that." Kendrick said. I laughed and finished filling out the sheet. I gave it back to the receptionist and she said that the doctor would call me back soon. As soon as I sat down he called me back. I was starting to have a hard time getting up so Kendrick helped me and we walked back to the room. I loved my doctor he was gentle and cute his name was Doctor McCray he didn't judge me for being a teen mom either. "Hey Emory and baby, who is this that you have brought with you today?" He asked. "My boyfriend." I said. "Is this the babies father?" He asked. "Yes sir." I said. "Perfect. Let's get you ready to see your baby. Lie down on the table for me." I laid down on the tissue paper and rolled up my shirt. He put the cold gel on there and I cringed then Kendrick grabbed my hand. "Okay it looks like the baby is doing fine. You are only two months along so you need to be careful about what you do and eat, it looks like your feet are a little swollen so I am going to put you on bedrest for a couple of days. How's the morning sickness?" He asked me. "Well doctor McCray it-" Kendrick cut me off. "She is doing so much better with that. She hasn't had it in about a week." he said. "Well good! I am glad to hear that. I want you to start taking prenatal vitamins and drinking more orange juice. I want you to eat something every hour and if you crave it, eat it." I was happy to hear that because we have some tomato soup in the fridge and that would be awesome with some potato chips. "So doctor while she is on bed rest can she still get up periodically?" Kendrick said. "No. Bed rest means in the bed trying to recover. She can get up to use the bathroom and shower but that's it. You will have to help her get better. Can you do that for me Kendrick?"
