Finding Our Way (Stefonnie)

Chapter 10

A/N: So I apologize, guys, I forgot to upload chapter 10 and I already uploaded chapter 11 but you can read this if you want to.

They were at their sixth month checkup with their doctor. Stefan went with her on his lunch break but started to think that he had to take the rest of the day off since it was taking a little longer than he thought due to the tests that she had to take. He didn't mind, he wanted to know everything that she knew so he could be prepared for anything. Both Bonnie and the baby were doing fine which they both were relieved to know and now they were waiting for the ultrasound.

Bonnie looked over at Stefan offering a smile and he smiled back and ran his hand down the side of her face.

"Do you need to leave? I can call Caroline." Bonnie offered.

"No, I want to be here."

Bonnie nodded then turned her head towards the door when their doctor walked in.

"Hey guys, how are you feeling?"

"Good," Bonnie answered.

"Alright, well Bonnie your blood pressure was a little higher than we want it to be- it's not dangerous or anything, but we want to keep it a little lower so do you think anything is stressing you out?"

She thought. "Nothing that I can think of."

"Okay, well try to take it easy, get plenty of rest and drink water to keep you hydrated."

Bonnie and Stefan nodded taking note. Stefan grabbed her hand when the gel was squeezed on her stomach and watched their baby on the monitor smiling.

Minutes later they went out for a late lunch. Bonnie was craving a burger with extra cheese and Stefan made sure that she got it. She told him about her craving almonds and he was glad that she didn't go through with eating it. He moved to sit beside her instead of in front of her when their food came and said a small prayer before eating.

"Are you sure you don't have to get back to work, Stefan?"

"Baby, don't stress about it, I'm fine, I'm where I want to be." He kissed her

placing his hand on her stomach.

Bonnie nodded then started eating. He personally wasn't hungry because his worries took up most of his appetite, but knew that Bonnie hated eating alone so he ate as much of his burger as he could.

When lunch was over, he hated that he had to drop her off at the house, but he needed to get back to work with the possibility of staying late to make up for the hours he missed. He kissed Bonnie goodbye after telling her that he loved her when she was settled under the covers. Bonnie declared her love back and closed her eyes knowing that by her doing that was the only way that he'll leave with minimal worrying.

She really didn't want to stay in bed, but the doctor told her to take it easy and she knew that if she stood, she'll be doing everything she could. If she was left alone with nothing to do, her thoughts would overpower her and cause stress which she really didn't need. Before thinking about all that is wrong, Bonnie reached for the remote hoping that there would be something entertaining on TV.
