Unlawful Pregnancy

Chapter 3 : Assisted Conception

Rachel lays on the gurney, her long brown hair tucked up into a bonnet. She is dressed in a hospital gown that Jack had helped her tie in the back. He smiles down at her holding her hand tight. Tears in his eyes feeling happy, powerless and scared out of his wits all at the same time. All he can do now is wait in the little room. Is having a child worth all this? Will he loose her? He spends his life saving people and when the love of his life needs him there is nothing he can do but sit or pace in the room. They start to wheel her away ripping her out of his hands. He watches them wheel her through the door. He runs to the door watching until she is out of sight, then stands there at the door until he is forced to move by someone coming out. He then takes a deep breath, sits down and waits.

About an hour passes and she is wheeled back out into the room in a wheelchair.

Jack runs to her side and kneels down next to her. "How are you baby?" He asks kissing her on the forehead.

"She did well." Dr. Falsgraft said standing next to her, smiling. "The wheelchair is hospital policy for all outgoing patients."

"We will need to see you back here in a week or so check to see how things are going. We will do a few tests and then we should be good until the end of the first trimester."

Jack stands up and shakes the doctor's hand. "Thank you doctor." Then pushes his wife towards the door. Dr. Falsgraft stops Jack with a hand on his shoulder. "No relations under any circumstances for two weeks. Got it?" Jack nods just wanting to get out the door and get her home.

He helps her in the car.

They head home, both anxious for the next appointment to come.
-------------------------------------

They get home that night and settle in, just to be together and watch TV.

They get watching a crime drama about someone who has escaped from prison and is on the run.

He is leaning back on the love seat she is next to him. His arm around her. He has not been separated from her for a second since they got home. He sat in the bathroom with her as she sat. He sat in the bathroom on the toilet as she took her shower. He insisted that he wash her back for her. He then asked her to stick around while he took his shower.

They got dressed for bed at the same time but did not go to bed yet. Overtired and too excited to sleep they stayed up in the living room. He just in his underwear and she in only a thin silk nightgown.

She lays her head on his chest while they watch the show. Well, she watches the show, he is watching her. Looking down and just marveling at her. Wondering how in the world that she was with him.

She must have been reading his mind because she looks up and smiles at him. She leans her head back and he kisses her gently on the lips. Slightly at first, then with more passion. What little self control they have crumbles and nature takes over.

I hope you like the edit. I think it's more natural this way.
