Pregnant

Chapter 7

The game against New England went slow, but at the same time we won the game. It was a good game, a close game, but we still won. After the game some of the team went out to celebrate, I went back to the hotel. I really wasn't feeling up to much. So after I rode back to the hotel alone. I went up to the room and dropped my purse on the couch and went straight to the bed and laid down. I didn't even have much energy to take my shoes off. Before I knew it I was knocked out. Next, thing I know I'm can hear my name being called. I slowly opened my eyes and found Odell standing there looking at me with so much concern on his face.

"What's wrong" I asked?

"I didn't see you at the dinner, so I began to worry. Why didn't you tell me you were leaving" he questioned?

"I told them to tell you that I was going back to the hotel, clearly they got distracted. I'm fine, you should go out and celebrate"I replied.

"No, I can't without you there. Are you hungry" he took off his shoes and got in the bed beside me and pulled me close. I shook my head then snuggled up beside him. He felt so warm and smelled so good. He rubbed my back and I went back to sleep. He let me sleep for about an hour and a half, then he woke me back up. Of course I was still sleepy, but I couldn't sleep all day.

"I took the liberty of ordering you Steak, mac and cheese and some Lemonade" he was holding a  tray full of food.

I sat up, "Thank you. Have you eaten yet" he place the tray on the bed. Then he walked out the room and came back with his food. "I see".

"We have a party to attend later tonight, if your feeling up to it" he mentioned. I really didn't feel like partying, but I knew that if I didn't go, then he wouldn't go. I wish he would learn to do things without me and stop trying to baby me all the time.

"Sure we can go" I gave him a smile. He smiled, then he grabbed the remote and turned the TV on.

"After, I have a surprise for you" he told me. I looked at him, but he was into the TV he was watching the highlights from the game . After I was done eating I put the tray to the side, and climbed out the bed. I went to the bathroom and did my business. After I left the bathroom and and Odell was still on the bed eating and watching TV.  I went into the living room, yes the room was that big it had a living room and even a kitchen, and sat down at the table and pulled out my laptop. I continued working on my paper that was due in two days.  I only had another paragraph that I finished up within five minutes.

"Hey, you ready to go" Odell came out the room, holding both our trays.

"Yeah" I smiled. I emailed my paper over to my professor, then closed my laptop and left it on the table. I got up and went to get my shoes out the bedroom and slipped them on. When did I take them off, I wondered. Then I smiled, Odell probably took them off. I went and found Odell standing in the kitchen rising off the plates. He'd be a great husband to someone one day. I stood in the door way and just admired him. Damn, how can he look so good in just a t-shirt and sweats. He finished up and then turned and looked at me, with a smile on his face. He walked over to me and gave me a hug. He smelled so good, I could even smell his aftershave.

He grabbed my hand and led me out the room, I grabbed my purse on the way out. We rode down the elevator and silence. At his car, he opened the door for me like the gentleman that he was. He drove in silence again, we finally arrived at a nail salon. I got excited, I love getting my nails done. When he parked I got out the car so fast I gave myself a whiplash. I heard him laugh as he made his way to me. He held my hand as we went inside. He paid for me to get my nails and feet done. I got shellac on both hands and feet, and I got mood changing nail polish. After we left I was just in such a happy mood.
