I am officially at thirty weeks; only six or ten more to go, right? Dr. Opal puts the cold gel on my belly before setting the probe down on my skin; I see Liam on the screen. I smile "He looks so adorable." I say. Dr. Opal nods "Yes. So far, everything still looks normal..." She trails off before looking at Peter and me. "He is still a really big kid though. Have we taken thought of the Caesarean?" She asks. I sigh and look down "I still want to have him natural. Is there a way that I can talk to Dr. Browning about this?" I ask. Dr. Opal shakes her head "I'm sorry, Ms. King, but he's had a lot going on in his personal life. I promise you that I have done many C-Sections, and-" "If my wife doesn't want this, she shouldn't have to have it." Peter interjects hatefully. My eyes widen from his sudden attitude. Dr. Opal looks over to Thomas before looking at Peter "I understand that a C-Section is risky, it is a very big surgery. But think of you and your baby, you do not want to tear." She says before nodding. "We will watch how you dilate when the time comes, this is very exciting for you two. I can tell that this is both your first baby. Try not to think about the risk, instead, think of getting him out of there." She says before looking to the screen. Peter suddenly grips my left shoulder while Dr. Opal tilts her head to the right "That's...uhm, so there is something about the ba-" "We know that he is big. We will find out ways for her to dilate by then. If she wants to have our son naturally, I will support her on it." Peter says defensively. Dr. Opal sighs "Very well." She replies before looking at Thomas. "I'll need to have two copies for this couple today." She says as Thomas nods. "I will see you guys later." She says. I wave at her before pulling my shirt down and getting up. Peter walks ahead of me as we head to the lobby. Once we head there I meet Sarah's smile. We head to the front desk where Peter pays. A woman came up to us and gave us an envelope; I take it from her and smile. Once Peter pays I look back and nod to the right at Sarah. As we head to the parking lot Sarah puts her arms around me from the right "Can I see? Can I see?" She asks excitedly causing me to giggle "Here. You can keep this copy." I say before opening the envelope and handing the first photo to her. Sarah smiles at the picture "Awwww, he's so cute!!" She shouts. "He's got my face, I already guarantee it!" She exclaims "Considering that he's my son, that isn't possible." Peter snaps. I look at Peter with an arched brow "What's wrong?" I ask "Nothing." He says plainly before digging into his left front pocket. Sarah rolls her eyes at me and shakes her head. On the way home Peter was silent, I can tell that something is really bothering him; though I am not sure what it could be. Peter heads to the bedroom as Sarah gives me a look, I shrug and head to the bedroom. I walk in and see Peter staring at his window. I arch my brow at him "Everything okay?" I ask. Peter looks back at me "Stay away from the windows. I don't want anyone looking in here." He says darkly. I look at him confusedly "What are you talking about?" I ask as he suddenly shuts blinds. "When did you get blinds?" I ask "Yesterday at the hardware store. It keeps people from looking in." He says before walking past me to the kitchen. I follow after him and see him pulling down blinds all through the apartment! Sarah looks at him "What are you doing?" She asks "None of your business, Sarash. This is my apartment!" He exclaims "Yeah, but it's Yvonne's too! Why do you have it looking like a cave in here?" She asks "Why are you here? You know, it's a pretty odd coincidence how you show up and everything falls apart!" He exclaims. Sarah now stands up "Yeah, right. And what are you even blaming me for now?" She asks "You're here trying to ruin my life and my marriage!! Honestly, how dare you?!" Peter shouts "You're the one whose ruined her life!! At least I haven't gaslit her!!" She shouts before Peter gets an extremely flabbergasted look "Gaslit?! If anyone here is the arson it's you!! You almost burned me alive one Christmas!!" He shouts "For the last time!! I was putting out the cigarette that you had in your mouth you bumbling re-" "Enough!! Both of you!!" I shout. Peter and Sarah instantly look towards me before I back away to the bedroom and slam the door. I get on the bed and begin balling. There is so much I don't understand, why is this all happening at once? It is so frustrating. I hear a knock on the door. "Go away!" I exclaim, I hear the door open "Darling?" "Not right now, Peter. I just want to be alone." I say before wiping my eyes. I feel his weight on the bed "I'm sorry...I have been very stressed out here lately, and I shouldn't be taking it out on you. There is so much I am worried about." He says. I now sit up "Tell me. I don't understand, you snapped at our new doctor, I know you're not sleeping or eating." I say, causing him to look back at me with surprise. I smirk. "What? You don't think I notice? I'm here all day every day, you start noticing stuff after awhile." I say. He sighs and looks down "I think my old stalker is back." He says. I arch my brow "The one from your old town. Well, that, may be a possibility." I say before shaking my head. "I don't think it would be. That was so long ago. I'm sure it's someone neither of us know...I'm not sure." I say. That girl's words go through my head once again, and I look at Peter. "Can I...ask you something?" I ask slowly. He looks at me, I feel my stomach drop, I know he'd deny it, even though he's a terrible liar. "Look, I know this is sudden, very sudden...but, if you're free tonight. Can I have the pleasure in taking you out to dinner?" I ask. Peter chuckles slightly "I'm surprised you remember." He says "I am too. Pregnancy brain's been kicking my butt lately." I say with a small laugh. Peter now gives me a soft smile "I'd love that...but I want you to be safe." He says. I arch my brow "It's just a date, Petey." I say as he nods. He holds my right hand in his left "Get dressed while I get the van." He says before kissing the top of my head. I smile and get up to get dressed. I just put on some black biker shorts and one of Peter's vests; that is pretty much all that can fit me now. I walk out of our room and see Sarah on the couch looking at her phone. I slowly approach the couch "I'm sorry. And also, I'm not trying to stalk you, Vonnie." Sarah says suddenly "Peter and I are going on a small date. I don't know when we'll be back." I say. Sarah suddenly looks back at me "I don't like the way he's treating you. I don't care what he thinks of me, but he shouldn't be acting like this towards you." She says before arching her brow. "Is something wrong by the way? You've acted a little strange since the Shower." She says. I open my mouth as Peter opens the door "Van is pulled up." He says with a small smile. I fake smile as I walk out the door; taking a look at Sarah watching me subtly. We went down to the van and we took off. Whilst on the road I will admit that I feel a little nervous. It's an awkward silence before Peter suddenly glances at me "You look beautiful tonight." He says "Really?" I ask before looking down at myself "You always look beautiful to me." He says with a soft smile "These are actually some of your old clothes. Nothing really fits me anymore, heh." I giggle "Well, if you want, you and I can go shop later tonight for some maternity clothes." He says as I smile "I'd like that." I say with a smile.

AN: I'm sorry I keep making parts haha. I have so much going on right now. Also, I think I have found Peter's twin from Barbie Fairytopia.

Also, meet my new son, Humphrey!

I love you guys and I will see you all next Wednesday! ♥
