Hearts A Flutter

If you haven't felt the little flutter yet, expect it to happen anytime now, you may not recognise it as the baby's movement at first but it will become more distinct as baby gets bigger.

the baby: baby's hair is starting to come in, as are it's eyebrows and eyelashes, the taste buds are starting to form and it's eyes are sensitive to light, baby is now around 4.5 inches long and weighs about 3.5 ounces.

Summer's POV

I don't know why I decided to take this week off from work, I'm bored as hell. Matty's at work and out of my reach to play with, so I am here alone, going out of my mind. It's also scorching hot and I'm sweaty and my skin is all sticky. It doesn’t even feel like the air-conditioning is working, even though I have it turned to the coolest setting. 

Time is just ticking away slowly, every time I look at the clock, only five minutes have passed, but it feels like hours.

Grabbing my tablet, I loaded up candy crush. Maybe this will pass some time. I've been stuck on level 380 for a couple of days, and it's starting to piss me off. I stretched my legs up on the couch in the family room and got more comfortable.

"YOU STUPID BITCH!" damn that god damn jelly, two left, TWO. 

I don't see how they expect you to get some of these levels out when they give you fuck all moves to do it in. Stupid candy cakes and the stupid chocolate machines, stupid candy crush!

"NOOO! YOU FUCKING BASTARD!" I'm just about ready to toss my phone on the other side of the room. Movement in the corner of my eye caught my attention, so I sat up to see what it was.

"Is it safe to enter?" Katie giggled from near the kitchen, her hands up in surrender. Bloody hell she scared the crap out of me.

"God, don't sneak up on me like that." I scolded her, holding my hand over my fast-beating heart. She knows what I'm like when I play this annoyingly addictive game, she's the same.

"Where’re Ebony and Tyler? and how did you get in my house?" I asked her and turned off stupid candy crush since I'm outta lives anyways.

"I stopped by the site to tell Kaleb to pick the kids up from childcare, and your husband bailed me up and told me to come to check on "his babies" before I head to work," she said in a huff in one breath, only now I noticed the work uniform she was sporting. 

"We are fine, but I feel a little weird." as I said that, she was on high alert and looking at me with concern.

"Are you in pain? are you sick? what's the problem?" she fired off, making me chuckle, she sounds too much like her brother right now, and it's a little creepy.

"No, but I'm feeling this weird sensation in my belly," I told her, after she stopped with the questions, she stopped moving and looked towards my baby bump.

"How often do you feel it?" she asked and tilted her head slightly and a smile was forming on her face.

"It's been happening all morning, but it's starting to freak me out now," I said, rubbing my hands smoothly over the bump that I love so much.

"Oh honey, that's the baby kicking, feels like little flutters," Katie said smiling brightly, Oh My God, I can feel the baby!

"Really? oh wow, that makes me so happy." I cried and felt instantly relieved, and jumped up to hug her.
