"DO YOU THINK THIS IS STUPID? THIS IS STUPID."
Bonnie Everett shuffled around her kitchen, the open floor plan of her tiny apartment illuminated the kitchen in a soft way, just the way Bonnie liked. But not even the light could calm down her anxiety now.
Strong hands wrapped around her waist making her stop in her tracks. "Baby, calm down before you make me panic."
Bonnie chewed at her fingernail as soft but callus hands lifted her chin. "This isn't stupid."
Before Bonnie and Negan, on the counter as a small, circular white cake with purple frosting, reading - "boy or girl?"
"Besides, we've done this once already." Negan said, a soft grin on his face, a grin Bonnie loved with her whole heart.
"Yeah, but then it was different, the doctor told us. Maybe we should do it after picking up Jackie from school?" Bonnie's hormones were definitely kicking in. The woman could find the smallest thing to worry about.
"Oh come on, Bon, it's just a cake!" Negan chuckled. He rested his palm against Bonnie's cheek. "We'll do it however you want to, okay? But, after Jackie's school the cake might get stale."
Bonnie's nerves calmed as a laugh erupted from her stomach. Truth be told, she wasn't worried about gender or anything, she was just worried about having another child.
"Okay, okay!" Bonnie smiled at Negan. "We'll do it now, before the cake get's stale."
"That's my girl!" He gave Bonnie a quick kiss before pulling out a knife from cabinet.
They both wrapped their hands around the knife.
Bonnie huffed excitedly and looked at Negan, their faces just a few inches apart. "You ready, dad?"
Bonnie would never forget the way Negan looked at her at that moment. His eyes were shiny and filled with love. This was the man she fell in love with. He was going to be a dad, for the second time.
"Let's do this."
The cut in once, then twice. They both put the knife under the slice, and lifted it up.
"It's purple."
The slice fell back down as the house erupted with laughter.
Bonnie held her mouth with her palms, trying to contain her laughter, but Negan's laugh was so intoxicating she couldn't stop if she wanted to.
Negan dug around the cake with the knife, his hands shaking with laughter. "Are you shitting me? It's all purple."
"Wait!" Bonnie bit down on her lip, "I kept the envelope. Just in case."
