A month later....

Arizona's POV

I woke up and ran to the bathroom for the fourth day in a row, gagging on my own puke until I got to the toilet. I felt horrible, and violently coughed before the next wave came. Just before I began gagging again, I heard a little frantic little voice behind me. It was Sofia wondering if I was okay. I told her I was fine but she still got Callie.

Callie, of course, understood exactly what was happening, but still stayed next to me rubbing my back, and wiping my hair out of the way. She even occasionally offered me a hug for support. I wasn't showing yet, but judging by how bad this baby is making me feel, I should be. Today, I was getting an ultrasound, just to make sure that the baby is still there, which she definitely is if I feel this sick already. Callie is coming with me, which is weird because we aren't a couple again yet. We don't even sleep together. Callie continued rubbing circles on my back even though I wasn't puking anymore, rather staying by the toilet to make sure she would be there if I did. I felt bad for scaring Sofia but she would understand soon enough. Hopefully even be excited.

After a while, Sofia peeked into my bedroom and asked Callie "is Mama okay?" In a shaken barely audible whisper. She sounded terrified, I really felt so bad that she had to see that.

"Uh you done here? I should probably go tell her it's just a little food poisoning." She said. I looked up at her.

"Yeah, yea, go" I said looking back down at my feet. I was caught by surprise when she took my face in her hand and rubbed my cheek with her thumb, and then kissed me on the head while getting up.

"Don't feel bad" she whispered before she walked out of the bathroom. She knows me so well.

A couple of minutes later I picked myself up and flushed the toilet so I could get ready. We were going straight to the appointment after dropping off Sofia at school.

30 minutes later....
We just dropped off Sofia at school, and Callie and I were silent in the car while she took my hand in hers. I didn't resist, it was nice.

"Are you nervous?" She asked me.

"I don't know why, because I never actually wanted this baby, but I guess, yea.... I hope she's still there." I responded somberly.

Callies smile grew as she glanced over at me. "She?" she asked. I smiled and let out a small chuckle.

"Yeah, she. I can just feel it" I responded, holding back a chuckle as I smirked.

She smiled wider. "You're amazing" she whispered out of nowhere.

I couldn't help but crack a smile. I looked at her, and responded "you are too" in the same tone.

"I love you" she continued in a hopeful tone. I could tell that she felt like she was making a risky move, but I had no hesitation.

"I love you too" I said, now smiling ear to ear.
