Hey everyone! I hate that this book is coming to an end! I can't decide if I want to have 25 or 30 chapters... Get to the next book (spin-off) or continue this book a little longer?

This week has been so hectic omg. It was senior week & I have testing and AP tests. 2 weeks left!

Chapter Twenty-Three: "Calm Down In There, My Guy."

April 23rd (six months later)

It was just another regular day in New York City. The flowers were starting to bloom now as spring was finally here!

I was officially due any minute now, I looked like I was literally fixing to burst.

Garrett had officially finished his first season of professional football and I couldn't have been more proud of him.

He's been such an amazing help these past few months. Gosh, he's the perfect husband!

I've never met a guy so sweet until him.

I've never met someone so in love with someone until I met him. It's honestly insane that's he's so into me. Like why me?

I'm just ... me.

Nothing special.

I was officially on maternity leave at the times since last week I had a pregnancy scare.

I thought my water had broken, turns out it was literally a bottle of water that had fallen on the floor.

They told me not to come back until January of next year. Which is a super long time, I can't believe they are giving me that much time off.

But, I will have to start working from home in September. I mean I'm an editor, someone's gotta do it.

I was currently on bed rest on this beautiful Tuesday afternoon. All I wanted to do was go sit outside by the pool deck and read a book. Garrett disagreed with that choice.

"Babe, all I am saying is that you need to rest! Pretty soon we are going to have sleepless nights for a while. That reminds me, did we pack a hospital bag?" He starts to shuffle around the bedroom to look for the suitcase we had packed almost a week ago.

"Garrett!" I shout getting his attention, he turns around runs a hand through his hair, "Come sit down. Now."

He slowly walks over to the bed and sits down, "You know it's sexy when you have to discipline me."

Did I mention we haven't had sex in a while?

"You are three seconds from having a breakdown, you need to chill. Come lay down for a minute."

He leans back and lets the pillow hit his head before he groans into his hands, "I'm sorry, it's just that like, at any second now we could be fucking parents! What if I'm a bad dad? What if I don't have enough time for you two. What if-."

"If I hear another what if come out of you I will not hesitate to pee on you."

He rolls over to face me and puts a strand of my hair behind my ear, "I like it when you talk dirty."

"Babe!" I laugh.

"Okay, serious question." I nod for him to continue, "If I were to finger you right now do you think I would like, touch the baby?"

I turn slowly on my side and smirk, "How about we find out?"

He shoots up, "Are you serious?"

I shrug, "I hear sex helps induce the labor."
