D-A-L-L-Y

Chapter 14

Another 2 months have gone by so quickly. I was almost done with my first trimester in my pregnancy. I was excited to be a mother!!!
"Hey babe," said Dally when he came into the apartment and kissed me, "the rumble is tonight!!!"
Dally was so hyped for the rumble.
"Dally....I don't want you to get hurt. Please don't go" I said.
"Aww, come on Nanc. Everyone knows it can't be a rumble without me" he said smiling.
"Ya ya. Okay, rumbles aren't the same without Mr. Dallas Winston!"
"Correct!" He said. He got up to see what time it was.
"Ah, it's 8:55! The rumble's at 9! I gotta go! Bye babe!"
He ran out the door.
I just sat here, in a quiet apartment building. So lonely. I decided I should think of some baby names.
Well, if it's a girl maybe Susan, Terri...maybe Jackie even. And a boy, maybe John or Dallas Jr.

I turned on the TV waiting for Dally to come back. It was about 10:30. They all usually go to the Curtis's after anyway, so I'm not worrying.
Suddenly the door slammed open,
"Fuck fuck fuck fuckkkkk!!!" Dally was yelling.
"What's wrong?!" I said.
"One of the Socs brought a blade and cut up my arm!" He ran into the bathroom.
"Let me help Dally!" I said running in after him.
"No, I can do it!" He said.
"Let me clean it up for you, please!" I said a little louder.
"NO NANCY! I don't want you to be taking care of me!!! I should be taking care of you and the baby!!!" He was yelling really loud.
"SIT DOWN!!!" I nearly screamed. He instantly sat down on the side of the tub and I sat on the toilet seat. I got a wash cloth and patted the blood on Dally's arm. I could tell he was trying not to curse, he was trying to be a man and have me not know that it hurt.
"You don't need to do this Nancy." Said Dally.
"No Dally, I'm going to. I don't like it when I see your hurt. I want to help you and take care of you."
"That's just it. I don't want you to take care of me. You've taken care of me more than I've taken care of you and the baby!" He said.
"Dally, just relax a little."
"Come on Nan-" he started to say.
"Shh Dal." I wrapped him arm up in some cloth and then brought him to bed.
"Take these Tylenols" I said.
"But why???"
"Dal, just take them, they'll make you feel better."
I laid down next to him on the bed. He wrapped his arms around me and we fell asleep.
~•~•~•~
The next morning I woke up and I could smell breakfast. Dally came into the room with a try of breakfast food.
"Okay. So today I decided that I'm going to take care of you. I have the whole day planned out already." He said.
"Dallyyyyy" I said blushing.
"What?! You don't have to do anything, it's your day!" He smiled.
"Ok, whatever you say Dally!"
