Eleanor's POV
The summer holidays were amazing. It was hard being pregnant during the heat but Ivana's parents were very insistent that we come and use their swimming pool as often as we like.
Today was the day we tell my parents. I had no doubt they would be supportive. I mean, my mom had my sister when she was in high school herself and my dad was in college, so they didn't make great decisions themselves but at least they got my sister out of it.
"Baby, I want to nap before we go," I whined.
Ivana was in the kitchen, stacking the dishwasher.
"Then go lay down, baby," she said, "I'll wake you in about an hour."
"No, you have to come with me," I said.
"Why?" She chuckled as she turned the now full dishwasher on.
"Because you need to hold me," I said, "and make me feel safe."
She smiled but nodded. I led her to the bedroom and pulled her down on the bed. I curled into her side, bringing her hand to lay over the baby.
I fell asleep to the sound of her steady breaths and even heartbeat. My short nap was very much needed. I woke up early with the baby. They were very hungry so I ended up making an omelette at five in the morning.
