"Lizzie can you come here for a second?" I ask my wife from our room "coming baby. I'll just let Leia out" she calls back. I wait patiently on the bed and pick the skin around my nails nervously waiting for her. The bedroom door opens and I look up "hey, is everything okay?" Lizzie asks and sits next to me "yeah. I-" "what happened? Your bleeding" I look down at my thumb and she is right "oh yeah" she grabs my hands and olds it in her palm "is everything okay? Why are you hurting yourself?" I smile softly into her eyes "It wasn't intentional, when I get nervous I do it sometimes' I inform "I know babe, I've known you long enough to realise that. What are you nervous about?" I take a deep breath and exhale slowly "I think I could be pregnant" I watch her eyes widen as she comes to terms with it "your sure?" I shake my head "no but I've had the symptoms and I've been pregnant before and I'm also a midwife. I know about pregnancy Lizzie" a smile form on her face "do you want make sure?" "Sort of. I'm scared, what if I'm not?" "Then we can try again or we can leave it a little bit. It's completely your choice" I smile and lean on her shoulder "I love you" "I love you too. Let's check though yeah? It will put your mind at ease". I stand up and take a test out of her cupboard, Lizzie stocked up on our last supermarket shop.
I take it out the box and put it in the bin "I've never been so nervous" I laugh nervously "it's going to be fine, whatever it is. I'm not going to stop loving you okay?" I nod and go into the bathroom and take the test. "Babe you done yet? How long does it take to pee?" Lizzie asks just as I open the door "all done. Now we have to wait three minutes" I walk past her and sit on the bed "where's the test?" I point to the bathroom "why's you leave it in there for?" She giggles and gets it. She gets into bed beside me and pulls me into her "it's going to be alright" she kisses the top of my head and I cuddle into her more "can you set a timer?" She nods and sets one on her phone. I lay my head on her lap and runs her hands through my hair "I bet you are pregnant babe. Your so moody and tired everyday. All you want to do is eat and sleep and have cuddles" I laugh and look up at her "yeah, cuddles with you are the best" I tease and close my eyes.
I'm woken by the noise of the timer going off "baby you ready?" Lizzie asks and I sit up. She grabs the test from the bedside table but holds it down so we both can't see "would you like to see it first?" I shake my head and grab the side of the test "together. But turn it this way" Lizzie nods "okay. Ready?" I nod nervously and she kisses my head onelast time "3..2..1.." we turn it over and a pink cross is on the screen. I let out the breath I was holding in and smile "baby?" I nod looking into her eyes "yeah, I'm pregnant" she drops the test and pulls me onto her lap "where having a baby?" I nod "we're having a baby" I repeat and wipe my eyes. Lizzie connects our lips into a passionate kiss and puts her hands on the back of my neck. I pull away wanting some air and hug her tightly "it worked" I whisper trying not to sob the whole house down "told ya" I look into her eyes and kiss her lips quickly. Lizzie's hands find their way to my stomach "there's a baby in there" she smiles "their only the size of a blueberry. Their so tiny, they aren't even a baby yet" "I don't care. Your pregnant! We're going to be mom's in nine months and there's going to be a baby girl or boy" I smile brightly seeing her this excited "ssshhh" I hum and lean on her shoulder "now I can boss you around and you can't say no" Lizzie laughs and kisses my ear "of course you can" I sit up and wrap my arms around her neck "what about cuddling me in bed until lunch time?" Lizzie smiles "of course Mrs Olsen" I lay down on the bed and Lizzie lays down beside me. She wraps her arms around my waist and berys her face in the back of my neck "I love you" "love you too" I shuffle back so we're close and bring her hand up to my chest "make the most of them with the time you have left" I mumble and smirk to myself. Her hand lays on my stomach making me smile "I'm going to look after both of you" "I have no doubt about that" I nestle into her neck and close my eyes.
"I love you" Lizzie whispers and then kisses my forehead, her hand lays on my stomach and my hand goes ontop of hers. "Baby are you awake?' She whispers "mmm I am now" I groan and open my eyes tiredly "sorry" I snuggle into her and her arm wraps around me "do you want something to eat? You are growing our baby afterall" "hmm no" I hum and lick her jaw. Her lips press against my forehead "I love you so much" she mumbles "I love you too" her hands slides onto my stomach "blueberry monster" I laugh and sit up "Leias going to want to go outside. Are you okay letting her out or would you prefer me to do it?" "I'll do it but only if you have breakfast" follow her down the stairs and into the kitchen. "Baby what do you want?" "Orange juice and water melon" "something filling" "ugh fine. Pancakes and Nutella" I jump up and sit on the counter and watch Lizzie make the pancakes "do you want normal Nutella or white Nutella?" I hold up one finger for the first option. She flips it and covers the top side in Nutella "I'm going to cook our children them too" she says turning to me. I smile widely and pull her Infront of me "you are adorable" "not as adorable as you' she pressed her lips against mine and I sink into her kiss "pregnancys made you horny" she whispers making me smirk "is that such a bad thing?" I ask bittingy lip. Lizzie smiles and puts her hands on my stomach "I'd do everything for this little one but not their mommy" I frown and stick out my tongue "well that's just mean" I pout. Lizzie holds my waist and stares down at me "I'm teasing. Would you like me to get you a Krispy kream to make up for it?" I nod enthusiastically "can you book an appointment at the hospital?" She nods "for what day?" "Tomorrow around nine" "okay, I'll book it after you eat." I frown and watch Leia run around the garden "you've been pregnant all this time. How did I not see it?" I smile softly and hold her hand "and what? You can see it now?" Lizzie nods "your alot more delicate and soft. Like everything youve done in the past two weeks has been slow and soft" "are you not saying that because you know I am. I haven't been doing anything differently. I still touch you the same".
After I eat breakfast Lizzie sits next to me at the table "I got you something" she takes a box out of her pocket "we are already married. You can give me anything more" I tell her sternly "well then, I promise this will be the last" she puts it on the table Infront of the and I lift the lid.
"It's beautiful but what is it?" She laughs "okay let me explain. Each time we add someone to our family a new diamond is added. At the moment it's me, you and Leia but soon another one will be added who will be the new baby" I smile widely and hug her "you are so thoughtful. Thank you" she kisses my lips softly and I look back down at it "but we can only have seven new members in our family including the baby" "is that a problem? How many children and pets do you want?" She asks playfully "millions". I get off the stall and pull her off with me "where are we going?" She asks softly "to this wall" I whisper just as my back hits it. Lizzie smirks "are you sure?' I nod making her smile and start pulling my t-shirt off "what about the baby?" "It won't affect them" I help her take mine off and then hers. I close my eyes and hum feeling her lips against my neck "is this okay?" I nod and hold her shoulders tightly.
"I need you more than ever now" I tell my wife "I'm not going anywhere" I smile and cuddle Leia "your the best dog ever" I tell her and stroke down her coat "couldn't agree more". I smile up at her "I still don't know when your birthday is and since I'm your wife and carrying our baby I think I should now" "I don't like celebrating my birthday, you know that" she kisses my forehead "I know you don't but we can start of fresh. Forget about what happened" "you mean start it over?" Lizzie nods and sits beside me "you shouldn't not celebrate your birthday because of something that happened years ago" I lay my head on her shoulder "sooo are you going to tell me or should I guess?" "July the second 1989" "that means your younger than me. Your younger than me!" I laugh at her reaction "I am" she frowns "I thought you were going to be older than me. Not that you look it, your glowing babe" I blush and stroke Leia "well thanks, I'm delighted" I tease back. Her arms slides behind me and comes around to hold my stomach "our little family" "our little family" I repeat and lean in for a kiss "when can we hear the heartbeat?" "Six weeks so another three weeks. Are you excited to see them tomorrow?" "Of course I am!" I laugh and stroke Leias head "sshhh, Leias sleepy" I remind her "oh yeah, sorry laylay" Lizzie apologises and strokes Leias head.
