Jessica's POV
I get up for another day of mother classes for Sarah. I take a look in the full length mirror once I've finished getting ready. God I'm getting so fat, I'll go to the gym tomorrow.
I go to wake Sarah up. She gets up and has a shower whilst I'm cooking breakfast.
I get a sudden sharp pain in my side. I've had them a few times these past few months, I'm not sure what's wrong.
I convince myself that everything is okay and I carry on with breakfast.

Sarah comes downstairs wearing leggings and a loose top. "God baby you're getting big" I bend down and say to her stomach. Sarah giggles. "I love it when you talk to Ava." She says circling her stomach with her palm.
I get another pain in my side and I flinch. "Are you okay baby?" She asks. "Just that pain again" I groan. "Maybe you should go to the doctors, it might be serious" "I'll be fine Sar, it's just old age" I laugh it off.
We finish breakfast and we drive to the mother class.
"So the mothers partners need to sit behind the mothers and let them lean back onto you. Then slowly rub their stomach." I follow her instructions. Sarah giggles at my actions. "What are you laughing at?" I ask "it tickles" she giggles again. I love that sound.

When the class is over we decide to go out for lunch because the class is an hour away from home. On our way we walk past a few shops and Sarah is drawn to them as usual. "Ohh Jessie look at that cute little baby grow!!" She says in an excited tone. She grabs my hand and pulls me into the shop. She picks up a light pink and white striped baby grow. She chooses the right size and takes it to the checkout. "That will be $8.40" the woman at the till asks. Sarah hands her the money. "Excuse me, but could I please have a photo?" She asks us. "Of course sweetie!" Sarah Paulson. She takes a photo of us all and thanks us.
"Can we eat now? I'm famished" I moan. "Sure!"
We make our way to a cute cafe down the road and order lunch.
During the drive home the pains began to get more frequent, but I tried to not make it obvious. I don't want to go to the doctors.
We are about five minutes away from home when I feel something wet between my legs.
"Omg" I whisper. "What's wrong Jessie?" Sarah asks. "I think I've just come on my period" I say slowly, very confused.
"What how can you? You're sixty odd?" She says just as confused as me.
I drive quickly wanting to get out of my trousers. We arrive home and I run to the bathroom. I take off my trousers and underwear, but there is no blood? Just wetness. Did I pee myself?
"Sar!" I shout. She comes into the bathroom. "Ohh hello" she winks seeing me in just a shirt. "I'm not on my period" I say "then what was it?" She asks "I think I peed myself" I say. She starts to laugh uncontrollably, then I give in and start to laugh with her. "Oh my god, I'm never letting you live this down" she says slapping her thigh.
