Naming Chantelle

I was spread out on my favorite zebra patterned love seat. In the room that had once belonged to Patricia Malik. Piles and piles of novels surrounded me.

I had been in here for days: reading, drinking tea, researching baby names. Lately there happen been a bit of trouble with rouges. Of course Zayn locked my away and forbid me to go outside alone like some modern-day werewolf Rapunzel. If I wasn't pregnant I know he would never dare to even think of locking me up like this. He was just concerned about me and the baby. I understand, but as soon as our baby is born I will remind him he has nothing to worry about.

Speak of the devil and he doth appear. His strong scent of woods, sweat, and honey sliced right through the hanging smell of worn books and mint tea. I filled my lungs until there was a forest within me and lean back, closing my eyes. My bun touched the freshly dried black and white walls.

The door creaked then closed with a thump. I felt the couch jump suddenly as he moved the novels from my side. His scent swallowed me whole in a blissful oasis. His arms went around my shoulders and on the crown of my protruding belly.

"So kitten," he rubs the top of my belly, "do we have a name?" I opened my eyes and lay my head on his shoulder.

"Uh there were two names I really liked Chantelle, it's French and reminds me of Chanel; and Kennedy, I just like Kennedy I don't know why. Safaa begged my to add Maali. It's Arabic, right?" He nods against my hair. "She said it meant something...um-"

"Noble things. I have a name that I like too. It's also Arabic; it means beauty. Aazeen. My beautiful little girl. She's technically a princess.. And it's quite fitting for a princess to have few middle names." Zayn grabbed my red tea cup from the self beside us and takes a sip.

"Hmm... Now how arrange those names?"

"Maali Kennedy Aazeen Chantelle Malik?" I suggest.

"No..Maali is more of a middle name. Aazeen Kennedy Maali Chantelle Malik?"

"I don't really think that flows well."

"Yeah, yeah that's true." Zayn sips at my tea cup.

"How about, Chantelle Maali Aazeen Kennedy Malik."

"Chantelle Maali Aazeen Kennedy Malik..hmm sounds like a name fit for a princess indeed."
