Something In The Way

27. Come As You Are

April 16th, 1992 - 30 Weeks

I woke up and streached and realised I was sore from moving Virginia into a house down the street yesterday. I looked over to Dave's side fo the bed and frowned. He stayed at his mom's last night because today we were going to the little chruch my family use to go to to get married before our little man came out. I got out of bed and went to shower and do my hair. Lisa had stayed over with me. I was done blow drying my hair when and coming she came into my room with coffee for me.

"Good morning sister. I brought you some coffee. Courtney phoned and said she's on her way over with Kurt. Kurt wants to give you something before he heads to my mom's," Lisa said as she handed me the coffee and I drank it.

"Good morning and ok. Should I leave my hair like this or curl it?" I ask as I looked into the mirror and applied some mascara.

"Maybe a little curl but not a bit. Like a beachy look," Lisa said as she sat on the edge of the bed and I applied eye shadow.

"I'm gonna look rediculous. I'm huge," I replied as I stood up from the vanity.

"You may be huge but you're glowing. Is that your mom's dress?" Lisa asked as she walked over to the lace dress that was hanging in front of the closet.

"Ya. I tried it on last night and thankfully it still fits," I said as I walked over to the dress and looked at it.

"I'll get it," Lisa said after the doorbell rang. She went to get it and closed the door as she left. I took off my bathrobe and started putting on the dress when a knock came at the door.

"It's open,' I said as I tried to do the zipper all the way up but my arm couldn't reach the top.

"Here I'll get it," Kurt said as he walked into the room. He put a box down on the bed, walked over to me and did the zipper up the rest of the way for me.

"Thanks," I said as I turned around to look at him.

"Wow you look absolutely beautiful," Kurt said as he looked at me. He took my hand and turned me round. I let out a small laugh when he stopped.

"Thank you. So Lisa says you have something for me," I said as I looked at the box.

"Yes I do. I saw it and thought of you. It also suits your dress," Kurt said as he turned around and took the lid off the box. He pulled out a wreath of white fabric dasies with ribbons hanging off of it.

"Oh my god I love it," I said as I covered my mouth.

"Your mom would have liked it," Kurt said as he put it on my head. I bent down to look at it in the vanity mirror and applied some cherry lip gloss on. I stood up and looked at Kurt again.

"I know she would have. Can we not mention them too much today please? I don't wanna cry," I said as I grabbed a little purse and put the lip gloss, a small hair brush and a few other things I might need.

"Not an issue there. I can't wait for Courtney to get this big. Can I touch your belly please?" Kurt asked with his hand inches from my belly.

"Yes you may. Thank you for asking," I replied and he put his hand on my belly.

"Hey little baby. I can't wait to meet you. I'm you're uncle Kurt," he said to my bump as he rubbed it. Courtney walked in as he was talking to my bump.

"I wanna join in," Courtney said as she walked over to me. She put her hand on my belly and rubbed it as well. The baby started kicking as Kurt continued to talk to it.

"Oh you're a strong little guy. You could end up being a drummer like your daddy," Kurt said.

"I can't wait til our little bean starts kicking," Courtney said as she walked over to my floor length mirror and fixed her dress a bit.
