Life Changing

Chapter 62

Three weeks had passed. Emily was just starting her third month of pregnancy. She'd found out her due date was July 24th. She'd still kept the pregnancy from everyone expect the people who needed to know. She had a little baby bump but you could only tell if she didn't have a shirt on. She had morning sickness really bad. Emily was at the doctor. After the appointment she was getting in a flight and meeting John and Penelope in Tucson, Arizona. She was hooked to the machine it was faced away from her so she couldn't see anything.

"Are you sure you don't want to hear the heartbeat Emily?" The doctor asked.

"I'm sure."

"No sonogram pictures either right?"

"Right."

"I know this doesn't relax you but everything is fine."

"I'll believe that when the baby comes out healthy."

A few hours later Emily had just walked through the front door of the hotel. Penelope and John were sitting on the couch.

"Hi Em." Sam said.

"Hi sweetheart." She went over to him. They kissed.

"Did everything go ok?"

"It went fine."

"Hi mommy." Penelope said.

"Hi Penelope."

"How was your morning?"

"Good." "Oh god." She felt the sudden urge to throw up and ran to the bathroom.

Penelope looked at Sam. "Is mommy sick?"

"No." Sam said. "It was probably just something she ate."

Later that afternoon Emily was at lunch with Britt. Emily was ordering.

"I'll have a double cheeseburger, a large fry and a large chocolate milkshake." The waitress took the order and left.

"Someone has an appetite today." Britt said.

"I'm hungry."

"If I didn't know any better, I'd say you were pregnant."

"Ha ha."

A few hours later Sam was working out with Randy in the hotel gym. Austin was talking but John wasn't really listening. He was thinking about Emily and the new baby.

"Sam." Austin said. "Sam?"

"Huh?" He said being brought out of his thoughts.

"What's up?" "I know you weren't listening to me."

"Sorry." "I have a lot on my mind, good things."

"Tell me."

"I promised Emily I wouldn't."

"I won't say anything."

"Ok." "Emily's pregnant." He said quietly. "We found out three weeks ago." "She wants to keep it quiet because she's afraid that what happened last time will happen this time."

"That's awesome that she's pregnant."

"I'm excited about it."

Later that night Emily just got done throwing up again. Penelope came and sat down between her and Sam on the couch. She looked at Emily.

"Mommy, are you sick, like my first mommy was?" She asked worried.

"No mommy's fine." "I promise."

"I think we should tell her so she knows there's nothing to be afraid of." Sam said.

"I agree with you." "Penelope, there is something going on with me but I'm not sick." "I'm having a baby, I'm pregnant."

"Really?" Penelope said happily.

"Yeah."

"Mommy that's so great." She hugged her. "When it is coming?"

"My due date is July 24th but it could come a few weeks sooner or a few weeks later." "It all depends on when it wants to come out."

"What is it?"

"I'm not gonna find out until I have it." "I want to be surprised." "Penelope mommy doesn't want anyone to know for a few more months, so promise me you won't say anything."

"I promise."

"Wanna see my belly?"

"Yeah."

Emily lifted up her shirt. "It's still small but there it is."

"I see it." She said smiling. "Has it kicked?"

"It has to be bigger first." She put her shirt down. Penelope hugged her again, then Sam.

"I'm glad you're so happy." Sam said.

"You know how much I've wanted to be a big sister." Penelope said.

"I know."

Later that night Emily and Sam were in bed. She was laying on her side facing away from him almost asleep. She felt him snuggle up to her and kiss the back of her neck. Then she felt his hand rubbing her stomach. She couldn't help but smile.
