I'm pregnant.... really pregnant.... I've wanted this for SO long...so long. I STILL can't help but feel bad about the wedding, we're married...and I AM happy, so happy. The baby and our marriage.... are dreams come to life, and they are REAL. But.... i just really wanted to celebrate with our family.... i just hate feeling like I have messed things up, even though Stephen has told me otherwise......and.... I'm not feeling good....
"Sugar Cookie.... please don't cry..." A gentle hand to my face, the hand of my Stephen. "Gonna get sick baby doll?" I barely manage a nod, as I clap a hand over my mouth TRYING to breathe thru my nose, "Here baby, I gotcha...." Gentle rubs to my back, hair pulled out of my face as I heave into whatever my husband hands me....so much.... it's SO much......
After what feels like forever, I stop.... crying naturally, and STILL my husband.... He is so sweet, helping me clean my mouth out and drink iced water.
"I... I.... just feel b-bad...not good...and....and, I just hate feeling like I m-messed things up.... I wanted to celebrate with everyone! "I wail.
Strong arms wrap carefully around me, the bed dipping slightly as my husband joins me as I sob into his chest, as he tries to soothe me.
"Hey...hey I know you feel bad and Vinny, baby.... you didn't and aren't messing things up...you didn't. You and your health are more important. And WE are celebrating, we're married and you're pregnant with our baby. Its...its everything to me, the greatest of dreams coming true." I gradually calm down and pull him into a kiss, needing just to feel him and then I go to say something else, when after my vitals and all are checked.... It's time for ultra-sound.
And so soon, I find myself in an exam room...my husband at my side...and I am a little nervous.
"Babe?"
Stephen already knows, "You're a little nervous I know...me too. But I am excited to share in this experience with you and I PROMISE our little sugar cookie will be ok."
"Ok babe, I trust you." I smile weakly since I am so very exhausted and feel like shit still. We kiss before getting started and my husband reverently lifts my hospital gown exposing my stomach, which is still flat for now at least, but is ever so slightly rounded. Stephen leans in and to my surprise kisses my stomach, smiling at me with tears in his eyes as he raises back up to look at me.
I am warned the gel is cold.... which Damn! I was warned and brr, is all I can say.... ok, ok.... The doctor is telling us so far so good, that I am about 7 weeks pregnant or around a month and oh WOW!
I start bawling as Stephen and I see a black and white image, of our baby.... OUR baby.
"Wow...Vinny...look! Look that's.... It's our baby. I'm gonna be a daddy! Oh man.... this....is so fucking beautiful!" Stephen is crying and laughing both as he then proceeds to pepper my face in kisses, "Oh thank you! Thank you, Vinny!"
I find myself caught up in his joy, "This...is so exciting! I've wanted this for so long!"
Truly this is the best of dreams.... because it's REAL. I never thought, my dreams of having a baby with the man I love would EVER come true, thank GOD, I gave him another chance....
I blink and the exam is over, I am back in my room....and reality smacks me in the face, as one...I start feeling dizzy and two, I remember our family.... the wedding, and I groan tearfully.
"Oh Vinny.... I know it sucks.... close your eyes and breathe deeply, all you need to worry about is the baby, ok? I gotcha baby doll." I feel more than I see Stephen, as I listen and breathe deeply, as the dizzy spell passes as I cry into my husband's chest, who refuses to let me go and gently rubs my back.
"I k-Know...you s-said...I didn't ruin everything, but.... w-what happened to everyone?"
"Vince no lie, you didn't ruin everything.... YOU AREN'T. As for everyone? Well while you were out, I made some calls & they are more worried about you. They want you to rest and take it easy, no one is mad at you. Sixx like I said tried to tell me when I was getting ready and you, Vince they understand, and they know about our baby and are happy for us.
"Y-You promise?" I murmur sniffling, really hating my mood-swings right now and the rising tide of nausea.
"On my life.... Sugar Cookie, look at me...." Reluctantly I do so, "I love you...." He trails off grabbing a bowl and sure enough, I puke into it for a few minutes...gagging and sobbing. And I am really kind of out of it, as my husband requests something for nausea that's safe for the baby and me and they even are nice enough to bring a pitcher of ice water and crackers, ginger ale and even some fruit, I try and eat as much as I can for my baby, and manage to keep it down...I don't feel like much else right now and I would really LOVE to just crash, but I want cuddles.
"Stephen? Can.... You cuddle with me? Hold me? So, I can sleep? I wanna fucking crash." I asked my husband.
"You bet I can baby doll....and, I'll grab an extra blanket for you." Stephen is very much true to his word, carefully joining me in my hospital bed, and his hands rest on my stomach, which makes me melt until I burst into tears, alarming my husband.
"W-What...about the honeymoon?!" I start panicking, but quickly my love calms me.
"Vince, you, and our baby are more important.... but I know how much it means to you, SO.... i thought I'd surprise you by renting out a beach house out in malibu, having it stocked....and just taking care of you and if its better for you to be here, that's ok too. All I know, is that I am with you, THAT'S what matters...that and taking care of you. Now, sleep ok baby doll? You've had a long day and rough morning sickness so far."
"I love you....and, you've made one of my greatest dreams come true baby."
"I love you too Sugar cookie and our little sugar cookie here." I feel more than see Stephen smile, as I finally give into sleep, and I dream....
Laughter sounds.... such laughter and joy.... Its Stephen and I in our kitchen, his hands on my swollen stomach feeling our baby move and kick.
"Strong little cookie! Really kicking a lot....so much energy!" Stephen is very excited, and I am right there with him.
"I know! Such a happy little baby!" I gush before laughing once more, "Although, I DO BELIEVE our little sugar cookie is hungry too!"
"Hmm, I do believe your right baby doll.... I'll make whatever you both want."
"Oooh, well haven't.... had.... Remember the food from our very first date? Can we have that?" I am practically drooling at said prospect.
"Let me get you settled first and I'll make it...." He trails off kissing me and that ALSO stirs a different type of hunger. Stephen naturally knows and smirks leaning into whisper into my ear, "Lemme make you dinner first and THEN...SUGAR COOKIE...." Oh, I do I get his message loud and clear....
A/N: They got to see the baby!! Poor Vince having it rough with morning sickness...stay tuned for more!
