----------------------------------------------------------------

It was a long weekend and the two of you decided to invite your family and Tommy and Flo to have a short vacation out of town together. You and Joel rented a big house for a few days so you could spend the weekend with your family. You and your family separately and decided to meet at the house.

"Sarah's asleep." Joel whispered as he looked to the rear view mirror.

*car honked*

"What the fuck is his problem?!" Joel flinched at the honk.

"It's okay baby, go back to sleep." You reached Sarah's hand who was laying on the back seat.

Sarah closed her eyes, hugged her teddy bear tight and went back to sleep.

"I think you're driving too slow, baby." You stroked Joel's upper arm.

"I'm not goin' any faster than this." Joel shook his head.

He was driving slow because he didn't want you and Sarah to be in danger. Not after the accident that broke the two of you apart.

"We're not gonna get there on time if you keep driving like this." You sighed.

"It doesn't matter. I'm not risking you, Sarah and our baby's lives." Joel put his right hand on your protruding belly.

Since you reunited with Joel, you tried again for a baby and you were now 6 months pregnant with Joel's baby. Joel had been very protective of you since the accident and he even got more protective when you told him you were pregnant.

"How long till we get there?" You looked at the rear view mirror then to Joel.

"3 hours tops." Joel tapped the steering wheel.

"O-kay." You yawned.

Since you got pregnant, you get tired easily. You spent most of your days sleeping, eating, sleeping, eating. Joel had been very supportive and protective. He did most of the chores and cooked for you. You wanted to have a baby gender reveal party to your family and Joel came up with the idea to have this family vacation and surprise them.

"Get some sleep. I know you're tired." Joel told you to sleep.

"I'm not." You gave him a side eye.

But before you knew it, you were already asleep. Your head went limp falling to the right and left.

"Uh-oh." Joel panicked as he saw your head falling down to your shoulder.

Joel drove with his left hand while his right held your head trying to straighten it up so your neck wouldn't hurt when you woke up later. His head moved back to back looking at you and the highway.
