The Bodyguard

The doctors

Macs POV:
Ari finally got up... after almost 3 hours.
She's so tired all the time. It's cute, but I barely have time together with her. Or am I just being really clingy?

"Morning" She says adorably as she sits down across from me. "Good evening" I chuckle.
"Ah right... I took a nap" She laughs.
God her laugh is so beautiful.
I made some pancakes with eggs just like usual, since that's almost the only thing she can eat, without throwing up again.

After eating she changes and refreshes a little.
"You don't need all that make up babe" I kiss her as she gets out of the bath again.
She just ignores me and puts on some shoes.
I do the same, always glancing over to her, checking if she needs help with anything.

"Ready to go to the doctor?" I ask and grab her hand. I can see in her eyes, how much she wants to say no, but she nods.
I smile, squeezing her hand slightly as we head out of the tourbus.
We have to walk for some minutes before we arrive the doctors.

————————————————————

The doctor puts some of that disgusting stuff on Ari's belly and takes the ultrasound machine to check on her.
He looks really concentrated and Ari keeps squeezing my hand way too hard. I squeeze back, making her look at me "Everything's alright babe... why are you so nervous?"
She looks at her stomach saying quietly:"I don't know, it's just really exciting"

"Well! I've got some news. I don't know if you will consider them good or bad news.
I hope they're good news to you" The doctor always talks so much and never says what's actually going on.
"What's the news?!" Both Ari and I burst out.
He chuckles and says:"It seems like, you're not expecting only one baby, that's why you already had some cramps. Some symptoms might also start earlier or are stronger...."
Ari looks at me. She has that look on her eyes. The one I hate almost the most. She's scared. "But... a doctor told me I was too small to even have one baby.... How am I gonna carry more than one without being ripped apart?"
The doctor rolls around with his chair, searching for stuff while he's explaining:"Maybe that doctor was a little wrong. I can see that you have a pretty small frame, but I'm sure that you'll be able to carry them. I can already see that you're probably gonna carry a little high. That's nothing to worry about, your ribs just might get sore and will start hurting."
Ari looks even more scared now. How can I calm her down?
The doc tries to make a joke:"You might feel like you're gonna pop like a balloon" he chuckles.
I rub my thumb over Ari's hand and try to calm her down a little.
"I'm here for you babe. We'll get through this together."
The doctor smiles:"I'm sure you two will do perfect parents. And you're gonna treat her right..."

A/N: What do you think how many babies is ari gonna have? Twins? Triplets? Quadruplets? Quintuplets? 👀🤔🤷‍♀️
