Poppy's POV
"David, you look so handsome! Turn around." David agreed to let me help him with a new wardrobe for the day. He about everything in the store on and he looked good in it all. "Poppy..I don't really like it." he complained while itching his skin. "It makes me itch."
"Really? You look so good in it. Well, I don't want you to be uncomfortable so I guess you don't have to get it." Before I could convince him to keep it he had it off and was pulling on his own shirt.
"How are you feeling?" he asked, folding the clothes and stacking them in a pile. Now why can't he do that at home? My eyes moved from him to my stomach.
"I'm doing fine." I ran my hands over the bump and smiled. "You know, only another month and we'll have a kid to take care of." We both decided we didn't want to know the gender of the baby until we actually had it. If it was a boy we were going to name him Felix James Jenison. If it was a girl we would name her Hanna Marie Jenison. David had said his great grandmothers name was Hanna. She was a sweet women who had helped everyone she met. Surprisingly she helped David and I pay for our house.
"I know. I can't wait. I hope he or she looks like their beautiful mother." My cheeks turned rosey and I smacked him with my purse. "That's not gonna stop me from calling you beautiful." He laid his hands on my stomach and his smile brightened when he felt a kick. "You are going to make a great mommy." I placed my hands on his, our rings clinking together.
"And you'll be a perfect daddy. Now go get your clothes and let's go home." I noticed he already had the clothes tucked under his arm. "Come on smart alec." Together we walked to the counter and paid for the outfits. The whole time he refused to take his hands off of my stomach. This man is going to be a perfect father. He always takes care of me and I could tell he would take care of our child as well.
David's POV
"Hi there cutie. How are you feeling? I can't wait to meet you. Me and mommy are going crazy! I can't wait for you to meet her. You will think she is the most beautiful girl in the world." I always talked to Poppy's stomach when we were sitting together. She was giggling and smiling her wonderful smile. "I wish you could see her right now. She's so pretty." I whispered, kissing her covered stomach. Once again she giggled and swatted the back of my head for all the compliments I was giving her.
"David, you really don't have to get the babies hopes up." she rolled her blue eyes at me and playfully pushed my face away from her stomach. She was always so cute when she was stubborn.
"Want something to eat?" I kissed her forehead since I couldn't kiss her belly. She nodded and kissed the tip of my nose. "No kissing war right now." I stood and trotted to the kitchen, kaing her some scrambled egges.She seemed to like my terrible cooking. Well, she probably only liked it because it was food for her to eat. I chuckled to myself and brought the food out to her. "Heye you are m'lady." I bowed slightly and held the plate out for her. Once again a smile appeared on her face and she took the plate, digging right in. She said something as she ate but the food in her mouth made if hard for me to figure what she said. I just laughed and nodded. "You are so cute Pop's. That's why I love you. Well that's one of the reasons at least. We had been through the reasons once before but she got embarrassed with all the compliments. I never really understood why she never wanted them. Didn't all girls like it when they got compliments from guys? I mean I know saying 'Your eyes are as deep as the ocean' is cheesy. I get that. But, if I was a girl and a guy told me that I would like that. But no matter how much she pleaded me to stop giving her complimentsI would never stop giving them. I love her too much..
See! Now David's not that bad. He was a good guy and he still can be one! I didn't forget about Hanna and Poppy's visit with Leroy so don't worry. I just felt like people should see the sweet sid of David.
Question: What do you think David would have done if Hanna didn't have heart problems? Would he still be with Poppy?
