Military Love

Chapter 11

Maddie's POV

I wake up the next morning and like most morning's lately I feel nauseous. I get up and go to the bathroom and get in the shower. When I get out of the shower, I see that Dalton is up. I walk over to him and give him a kiss before going over to the dresser and getting dressed. 

Once I get my bra and underwear on, I have to sit down for a minute because I start to feel super nauseous. "You okay, babe?" Dalton asks, "I just feel super nauseous, but I'm fine." I say leaning against Dalton. Dalton rubs my back for a little bit before I get up and finish getting ready. 

I go downstairs and see that Dalton made me coffee and a yogurt parfait. "Aww, you're the best!" I say, walking over to Dalton and giving him a kiss. I quickly eat my breakfast and then pour the rest of my coffee into my tumbler before leaving to take my nursing boards. "Good luck, I love you!" Dalton says, giving me a kiss as I walk out the door. 

When I get back from my boards, Dalton is sleeping on the couch. I decide to let him sleep and go upstairs and change into some sweats and start unpacking and cleaning. After getting everything upstairs is unpacked and cleaned, I go downstairs and look for something to make for lunch. 

I decided to have a grilled chicken salad for lunch. I get the lettuce and all of the vegetables ready while the chicken is in the skillet. Once the chicken is done, I put everything in the bowl and shake it up and add the dressing. 

Once I'm done eating, I take care of everything and go to the living room where Dalton is just now waking up. "Hey babe, how did your boards go?" Dalton asks, sitting up. "I think they went good, but they haven't called me to let me know my actual score yet," I say, sitting down next to him. 

"I bet you did great." He says, kissing my forehead. "Did you eat yet?" "Yeah, I just made myself a grilled chicken salad, I would've made you something, but I didn't want to wake you up," I say. 

 "That's okay, I might just order a pizza or something. Will you want any?" Dalton asks standing up to go get his phone from the bedroom. "No, I don't really want pizza. I just ate but McDonald's fries kinda sound good right now and a chocolate shake. I wish you could order McDonald's and have it delivered." I say being dramatic. 

"Do you want me to just go get that?" Dalton asks stopping at the bottom of the stairs. "Maybe," I say drawing the word out longer. "Alright, I'm gonna go throw some jeans and a shirt on and then go get it. Do you want to come with?" Daltons asks still waiting at the bottom of the stairs. 

I shake my head "no" and lay down on the couch. "Alright babe, I'm leaving I'll be back in a little bit with food. You just want fries and a shake?" Dalton asks walking out the door. "Yes, thank you!" I say 

As I'm laying on the couch I start to feel tired and fall asleep. 

I wake up when I hear Dalton pulling the truck into the garage. I sit up and stretch before getting up and going into the kitchen. Dalton walks in and sets the food on the counter and sits down and starts eating right away. " Were you hungry?" I joke sitting down next to him. He just nods in response

After we finish eating we decide to take Bella for a walk. "I'm going call the doctor tomorrow I think and set up an appointment for I guess whenever he needs to see me. I'm gonna ask if I can still work out." I say, I love working out, not only does it help me stay in shape but makes me feel so much better too. 

"I'm sure you can still work out at least for a little bit as long as its low intensity," Dalton says. As we continue on our walk we just talk about life and the baby. When we get home I notice that I have a missed call and voicemail. I didn't even realize that I forgot my phone. I listen to the voicemail and it's about my boards. 

I set my phone down and I just sit there. "Maddie, is something wrong?" Dalton asks waving his hand in front of my face. "That was about my boards, I... I passed!!" I say getting super excited at the end and jumping on Dalton wrapping my legs around his waist. "I knew you would babe!" He says kissing me and spinning me around. 

"Should we do something to celebrate tonight?" Dalton asks setting me down. "I kind of just want to stay in tonight if that's okay. We can celebrate some other time." I say "That's fine, I'm gonna go start packing some of my stuff up that way I don't have to worry about it and can spend more time with you before I have to leave." 

Dalton goes upstairs to start packing so he's ready for Wednesday and I do a little bit more cleaning and then sit down on the couch with my book. I hear Dalton come down after a while but he just turns the tv on and lets me read. 

Before either of us know, it's already 7 o'clock. I finish my chapter and then set my book down. "Babe, what do you want for supper?" I ask standing up. "I don't care, you could just throw a pizza in the oven if you wanted too." He says still watching tv

I decide to just put a pizza in because I'm not that hungry. After supper, we lay on the couch together and watch a movie. I kiss him just because I love him so much. He kisses back and of course, one thing leads to another and we are both heading upstairs to the bedroom.
