The next morning I woke up to the smell of bacon. It's rare for us to eat certain things, so today was a treat.
I rolled to my side to get out of bed.
I'm beyond huge. It was like I grew overnight. I wobbled my way to the bathroom to shower. I was still a little sore from my wax.
I got myself dressed, then headed out of the room.
"Good morning," I spoke out of breath taking those few steps from the room to the kitchen.
He laughed. "Hey birthday girl, twenty-six is looking amazing on you."
He handed me two small black boxes. One was on top of the other wrapped in pink ribbon. "Happy birthday."
"Awe you didn't have to." I opened it revealing two matching bracelets, one for me and one for my little one. "This is beautiful."
The gold bracelets were filled with shining white diamonds with a straight bar on the clasp. It was, indeed, beautiful.
He kissed me first, then bent down to kiss baby girl. I smiled at him as my stomach started making noises. "Thank you."
He chuckled. "Go over to the couch and have a seat. I'll bring your plate."
"Ok." I strolled over and sat down.
We sat and ate breakfast together. After he cleaned everything, I made my way back to the bedroom for a little nap.
Later that afternoon, Ben and Bo drove me over to the main hall for graduation.
It's a massive ceremony. I was able to get plenty of tickets. I was hoping it didn't turn in to anything crazy with Kenzo here and people knowing who I am now.
Bo's guarding me close. Kenzo wouldn't have it any other way.
We went through the rehearsals then everyone found their places.
It's a simple commencement ceremony. I was trying to stay as calm as possible. I didn't want baby girl to come on my graduation and birthday.
I looked down at my bracelet, moving it around on my wrist as I found my seat, waiting for the graduation to start.
My phone buzzed, it was Zo.
"Hello," I answered.
"Hey baby, we're taking our seats now. Just wanted to say that I'm proud of you. All the stress and studying paid off. I can't wait to see Dr. Thompson walk across that stage."
That made me smile.
"It's been hard, but I'm so happy I met you along the way. I can't thank you enough Zo."
