Normani

A week later

I'm so damn nervous right now.

We made it to the clinic and currently waiting for my name to be called.

My leg's shaking violently and I'm trying my best to control my shaky breathing. Y/N grabs my hand gently, making me look at her. She smiles at me softly. "It'll be okay, Goddess. Whatever h-happens, I'll be there," she then kisses my hand.

"Breathe, my love. In and out, s-slowly," I copy her breathing as she runs the back of my hand. "Good, you're doing good," I nod, taking a deep breath. "There you go, Mani," she smiles.

I smile back a little, "Thank you, baby."

"No problem," her smile gets bigger. My face then falls when I think of something, "My parents," she shushes me. "None of that, my love. I'm s-sure they'd unders-stand. If not, y-you have the girls and me," I nod, squeezing her hand.

"Normani Hamilton?" A female doctor emerges through the door with a clipboard. I glance at Y/N before getting up, her following suit with our hands still together.

The doctor has been gone for 20 minutes. Each passing second, I feel my heart rate go up a bit. Y/N rests a hand on my knee, not saying anything. Instead, she gives me a knowing look, and it somehow calms me.

She smiles, "Like I s-said, I won't leave you. I'm al-ways here." I lean over to her, planting a kiss on her lips. "You're good to me," she shrugs sheepishly. "You were th-there for me in the very begin-ning. And you loved me desp-spite me not talking."

This makes me smile and she kisses my forehead.

The doctor comes back in looking down at her board, "Turns out you aren't pregnant. The sudden sicknesses was just your body emptying waste. As for your late cycle, it was simply due to your eating and drinking habits."

I let out a relieved sigh, though I was pretty disappointed that I wasn't carrying Y/N's child. But we weren't ready like she said. We still have so much we have to get right before we can think about kids.

"Try to have a balanced diet, Miss Hamilton, alright?" The doctor says. I nod and hop off of the exam table. "Have a good day you two," she smiles. We collect our belongings and left the office.

"OK, baby, last one," I say with an ear splitting grin on my face as I typed. She rolls her eyes playfully. She's been doing well with her sentences. With these pass couple of weeks of practicing, she hardly stutters.

Only when she's nervous, though.

I hit send and wait a few seconds. Her phone dings and she looks down at it with confused expression.

"Huh?" I smile, "Read it out loud." She sighs with a chuckle, "Babe, I can't read French. Hell, I could barely read Spanish." I laugh, "I know. I ran out of things to say. She raises her eyebrows. "Really?" I nod and shakes her head.

"Such a child, I swear," she smiles. I do a little dance, causing her to laugh. "And a dork," I gasp in fake shock. "Excuse me, I am not a whale dick," she chuckles. "Nah, you're a turkey dick," I playfully growl and pounce on her.

She grabs my wrists as I try to punch her. "Nope, I don't think so," she laughs. I manage to grab her ponytail and I pulled. She hisses and rolls us over, pinning me down.

Laughing and panting, I struggle. "Ugh, get off, Y/N." She shakes her head with a mischievous look in her eyes. "Nah, I'm gonna stay right here," she then lays her head on my chest, still holding me down.

"I will knee you in the dick," she immediately gets off and backs up to the headboard, holding herself. "You win," she says. I laugh, getting closer to her and pecking her lips.

"Let's round up the girls today," she says. I furrow my eyebrows then she says, "I think I'm ready to speak to them, now. I mean, I haven't been stuttering lately."

I smile, nodding, "Yeah, I'll call them later. Wait until Lauren gets home." She nods, scooting to lay down and opening her arm to me. I cuddle up against her, sighing contently. She holds me protectively, placing a kiss on my forehead.

"I love you, Normani."

"I love you, too, Y/N. Let's take a nap, yeah?" She hums before throwing a blanket over us. "Sweet dreams," she says before I close my eyes.

Got y'all...short I know, but I had trouble continuing from the last chapter.
