Life Changing

Chapter 65

Two months had passed. Sam had taken a leave of absence from work to take care of Emily and Penelope. Penelope was all healed. Emily's hand was better. Her leg cast came off next week. That's when she was going back to work. Nobody but Penelope and Sam had seen her since the accident. She knew everybody who didn't know about baby would be shocked when they saw her. She was now noticeably showing. There was no way to hide it. Tomorrow Emily had an ultrasound appointment. She could find out what the baby was but she still didn't want to. Emily was thirsty so she used her crutches to get up and get something to drink. She was pouring some lemonade. Sam came into the kitchen.

"Em, what are you doing?" Sam asked.

"Getting a drink."

"Why didn't you yell for me or Penelope?"

"You were upstairs." "I can't wait till next week to get this cast off."

"I know." "I can't wait until tomorrow." "Are you sure I can't talk you into letting the doctor tell us what the baby is?"

"There's nothing you can do."

"Really?" "Nothing?" He said going over to her. He kissed her.

"That's not gonna work sweetheart."

"No?"

"No." He kissed her again. She kissed him back this time.

"Is it working yet?" He mumbled against her lips.

"Mm-mm."

"Maybe we need to go upstairs and talk about it more."

She broke the kiss. "Penelope's upstairs."

"Well you'll just have to be quiet." They kissed.

"I must be interrupting." Penelope said coming into the kitchen. They broke the kiss.

"Hi Penelope."

"Hi daddy."

"Do daddy a favor and stay down here and watch Netflix." "I'm gonna carry mommy upstairs and we're gonna take a nap."

"Ok." She went into the living room.

"Emily grab onto me." She put down her crutches and put her arms around Sam's neck. He picked her up like a bride. They went upstairs. As soon as they knew Penelope couldn't see them anymore they started kissing again. He laid her down softly on the bed and went to lock the bedroom door. He came back and got on top of her. "I love you."

"I love you too." They kissed and took off each other's shirts. He started kissing the side of her neck. "Oh Sam." She moaned.

The next day Emily and Sam were at the doctor. She was hooked to the machine. The screen was faced away from Emily so she couldn't see anything. Sam promised not to look.

"I can tell what the baby is." The doctor said. "Are you sure you don't want to know?"

"I'm sure."

"Well I can tell you everything is still developing normally."

"That's great."

Later that night Emily and Sam were watching TV. Penelope was in bed.

"Aw." Emily said.

"What?"

"It's kicking." "Here." She took his hand and put it over top of hers. "Feel it?" She said happily.

"I do." "That's amazing." "Are you saying hi to mommy and daddy?" He said looking down at her stomach. He bent down and kissed her stomach.
