Phoebe adjusted her sundress for the day. The fabric catching on the slight swell that had become her constant companion. It wasn't much, not yet. Just a subtle rounding, a gentle curve where her stomach used to be flat. To the untrained eye, it was probably just a bit too much pasta the night before. But Phoebe knew. She knew the quiet flutter within, the morning nausea that she'd subtly disguised as a fondness for ginger tea. Her baby was growing. She was still waiting to tell everyone at the station, including Lucy.

Phoebe and Tim decided to take a day off today. Today was officially one year since Phoebe had lost her mother. She needed some time to see her mother at the cemetery, and she also promised Angela she would go with her wedding dress shopping. Phoebe went downstairs and saw Tim in the kitchen making breakfast. Her vase with fresh flowers, and her mug filled with her favorite brew of decaf-coffee.

He smiles at her appearance "Good morning baby, you look beautiful today" he tells her. Phoebe smiles "Thank you" she tells him. He looks down at her belly his eyes widening "Pheebs! You have a little bump" he tells her in awe. He walks over to her his hands gently touching the growing bump.

Phoebe looks down and smiles "I know, it literally grew overnight" she explains to him. Tim nods his head with a smile. He leans down pressing a kiss onto her lips "I love you" he tells her softly. She smiles into the kiss "I love you too" she says.

He places her plate on the table in-front of her "What are you doing today?" He asks her. Phoebe lets out a groan the wonderful taste of blueberry pancakes making her mouth water "I'm getting my hair done, and then meeting Angela at the dress shop". She says taking another bite. He nods his head "Nice, I'm planning on measuring the spare bedroom upstairs for the babies room, and than I'll take Beau for a walk" he explains to her before taking a sip of coffee. Although they had plenty of time before the babies arrival he wanted to get a head start.

Phoebe looks down at the time on her phone "I better get going. I'm going to see my mom at the cemetery, before my hair appointment." She says to him. She stands up placing her empty plate in the sink. Tim nods his head and pulls Phoebe into a hug his hands trailing down her backside. The smell of caramel and vanilla filled his nostrils "You smell so good" he said pressing up against her. His lips planting soft kisses against her neck.

Phoebe moans as she feels his bulge press against her thigh "Babe, I have to leave" she says gently pushing away. Tim places his lips on hers "I can be quick" he says starting to pull up her dress. Phoebe rolls her eyes with a laugh "I'm going to be late" she says with a playful eye roll.

Tim smiles "I love you, be safe"

Phoebe had added some highlights and decided to trim some dead ends. It was a subtle change for her. She had met Angela inside downtown's bridal shop. Angela was waiting in the back for her friend with multiple dresses already lined up for the two of them.
