Cara is now eighteen weeks pregnant but is still barely showing, she had a little bump but it just looks like fat.
She wakes up to her alarm sounding, she rolls over and turns it off. "Raf" she smiles as she feels him rolling around next to her.
"Morning" he mumbles into the pillow.
Cara rolls over and looks at him lovingly. "Morning" she smiles.
He leans over and kisses her "sleep well?" He asks as he strokes her stomach.
"On and off, it was really warm last night" she says.
"It was" he smiles, "How you feeling this morning?" he asks as he sits up.
"I don't know" she says as she sits up next to him.
"Hmm very specific you are" he laughs.
Cara smiles a little and rests her head against his shoulder. "How are you feeling though? Sore head, nauseous?" he asks.
"A little nauseous" Cara says.
Raf smiles and gets up, "Raf?" Cara smiles as he gets out of bed.
"What?" he asks.
"You know because you love me?" She smiles.
"Yes what is it?" he laughs.
"Can you get me a class of orange juice... The one that's in the Carton in the fridge" Cara asks.
Raf nods and goes to get her it before he gets a shower.
"Morning" Morven smiles as he passed her in the hall way.
"Morning" he smiles.
"How's Cara this morning?" she asks.
"Ahh she's good, I think she's having cravings she's just asked me to get a Pacific carton of orange juice" Raf laughs.
Morven laughs, "oh dear, well better that than being sick" she laughs. Cara suddenly dashes past them and pushes Arthur out the way and she goes straight into the bathroom. "I spoke to soon" Morven laughs as they hear Cara being sick.
"Oh dear" he laughs as he goes in to see if she's okay.
As he goes in Cara stands up and flushes the toilet. "Swear I'm fine" she smiles acting as if she is.
"Oh yeah sure and being sick is fine?huh?" Raf says.
"It was only a little, but I feel fine" she lies.
Raf smiles and leaves her to it and goes to the kitchen. He gets her a glass of orange and goes back through to the bedroom with it to see her sitting on the edge of her bed on her phone.
"You okay?" He asks as he sets her glass down beside her.
"Yeah I'll be fine" she says.
Raf rests his hand on Cara's knee and smiles. "I'm away for a shower" he smiles.
He nods and kisses her cheek. He gets up and grabs a towel and heads to the bathroom while Cara goes to get something to eat for breakfast.
"Morning" Cara says as she sits on the sofa.
"Morning hows you?" Morven asks.
"Fucking brilliant" Cara says sarcastically.
"Oh dear why?" Morven asks.
"I can't stop myself being sick, I have ringing in my ears and a banging headache" Cara says.
"It will be all worth it in the end" Morven smiles.
"Will it?" Cara says a little unsure.
"What makes you so unsure?" Morven asks as Raf comes in with just a towel around him.
"What do you want?" she snaps.
"Alright alright, keep your knickers on" he laughs.
Raf walks back out the room and Cara starts to talk again but quietly "in six months time this baby is going to be here and I don't think I can handle it" Cara says.
"Well what the hell are you meant to tell Raf?" Morven says.
Cara shrugs "what if I have an abortion in secret and then just tell him I've had a miscarriage ?" She whispers.
"No!" Raf says as he walks back in as he can hear whats going on.
Cara's mouth falls open as she realises Raf as heard everything.
"Think I'm going to get breakfast" Morven says leaving the room as it's rather awkward now.
"I..." Cara manages to get out.
"Save it" Raf huffs.
"No Raf please" she stutters. Raf sits down next to her and just stares.
"Well go on then" Raf snaps. Cara doesn't know what to say to him at all, "go on Cara tell me what the fuck you were planning" he says is a raised tone.
"Raf calm down" Morven says.
Cara goes to get up but Raf grabs hold of her wrist and holds her tightly. "Let go...please" she says. Raf doesn't let go and keeps a firm grip on her "please Raf your hurting me" Cara pleads.
"Raf your hurting her!" Morven shouts, Raf leaves go and lets her be.
Cara smacks him around the face and walks off back to her bedroom. "Oi Cara Martinez less of the cheek to both of you" Morven says.
"Stay out of this Morven" Cara shouts as she goes into her room.
Raf rolls his eyes and gets up and goes through to her. He goes into the room and looks at Cara.
"Right enough of the lashing out, come on talk to me" he says calmly.
"Talk to you about what?? Huh?... 'Oh come on Cara your pregnant lets talk about your feelings'... Well maybe I don't want to talk!" She snaps.
"No but we need to talk, there's a difference between you not wanting to talk and needing to talk" he says.
"I don't need to talk to you Raf... I'm 27 not 14" Cara snaps.
"Cara please!" Raf says.
She just Ignores him and starts to get dressed. "Cute little bump" Raf smiles trying to make it less awkward.
Cara turns her back to him and continues to blank him. "Oh Cara come on, please" he says.
"Go do something useful Raf and don't talk to me" she huffs.
"Fine find your own way to work" he says as he gathers up his things.
"Fine I'll walk" she says.
"Good" he says as he leaves the house. Cara gathers her work things and then leaves.
