~POV: Michael~
Okay, here's the things I've learned about being pregnant so far.

1: You can sleep wherever you want, people do not care because you're pregnant so they assume you're exhausted. Seriously, last night I slept for three hours under the desk in Noah's office, He had meetings with Lily and Alex, they did not care. I'm like a cat, I keep finding new places I can sleep, nothing's impossible.

2: Morning sickness and lots of it. I feel bad for Noah since I keep waking him up at 3 am so I can crawl out of his arms to go throw up for a bit, only to go to sleep for twenty more minutes and start all over again.

3: I haven't had any "weird cravings" I guess, but I have noticed I'm eating a lot more than I used to. Before I'd have like a meal and a bit of a snack a day, now I'm eating all three meals and constantly snacking in between. Rose says it's good to get my body weight up for the baby.

4: Posi purrs a lot around me now, she always wants to sit with me or lay her head on my chest. Rose says that other omegas can scent my moods when I'm pregnant, and she does that to try and keep me as calm as possible so nothing goes wrong with the baby.

And 5: Noah is acting weirder than me. If I'm laying with him on the couch and someone tries to sit beside me he gets all stand-offish to them, like he's immediately pissed off. Sometimes if it's his sister (since she's the only other alpha we know) he'll even have a low, quiet growl until she moves. We tease him for it a lot, I don't even think he realizes he's making the sound.

That's all I've noticed so far.

At the moment it's around— 5:30 I wanna say?— on Christmas Eve. I'm sitting on the floor, leaning against the island to hopefully not be in the way and watching Rose cook dinner for everyone.

My eyes were half-closed as I was mesmerized by the swift and graceful movements she made around the kitchen, I've offered to help almost four times now, but she keeps saying "over my dead body will you ever help, dear." With a smile, whatever the fuck that means.

I'm getting spoiled, is it bad that I think it's fun?

It was just me and her in the kitchen, if I'm remembering right, Posi and Lily were trying to find a movie to watch, the way they were flirting was a bit painful. I think at one point Posi literally said, "I can think of one pretty thing I'd like to have wrapped up with a bow tomorrow.." In a super sultry voice, that's when I decided to move to the kitchen.

And Alex and Noah are still working in his office. I let out a yawn, Rose chuckled as she looked down at me, placing a pot on the island. "You don't look very comfortable hun." She handed me a tiny sample piece of the turkey she just finished cooking. I plopped it into my mouth.

"I want to be here." I did scoot over so it was easier for her to work though, I wasn't trying to be inconvenient. "Why don't you go in your nest? Have you moved it into a good spot yet?" She asked, wiping her hands with a dish towel.

I shook my head, "I dunno where to put it, also I don't want Noah to wash the pillows and blankets." He keeps asking if he can wash my nest, it's not dirty or anything, but I did go through my last heat in it, so the according to Noah, the scent of my heat is still in our room so it messes with his head and he doesn't want to do accidentally something I don't want or hurt me.

Which I get, I guess I just don't like the idea of technically not having a place to go if I felt scared. Even if I don't use it lately, the option makes me feel good.

"I know, but it's important. How about this, we could buy a little cushion and place it underneath the desk? That way we don't have to move your nest, only wash it." She smiled, her smile was always reassuring. I shrugged, "I guess that would be better, I like having it where it is."
