Dianne was woken up my a sharp kick in her stomach. She sat up against the headboard placing a hand on her bump. She grabbed her phone to have a look at the time to see it was just past three in the morning. She gently stroked her bump hoping to lure the baby in her belly back to sleep so she could go back to sleep. After five minutes of constant kicking she decided she was going to have to get up. She slipped her slippers on and wrapped a dressing gown round herself as she made her way down to the living room her hand not leaving her bump. She made her way into the kitchen feeling a little bit peckish and opened the fridge. She looked inside but nothing took her fancy. She walked back into the living room sitting down on the sofa. She grabbed a blanket placing it over her lap as she continued gently stroking her bump.
Dianne had been sitting on the sofa for about ten minutes staring into space when she heard a sound coming down the stairs. She turned her head to see Joe walking into the living room rubbing his eyes. He came and sat next to her placing one arm around her back and his other hand on top of her's on her bump. "What are you doing up at this time" Joe asked. "The baby started kicking and it won't calm down so I couldn't get back to sleep." "Is there anything I can do" Joe asked. "Well I'm really craving lemons but we haven't got any so I was sitting here wondering how I could get some." Joe looked up at her giving her a strange look. "Lemons" he asked. Dianne nodded her head and said "the baby wants want the baby wants." Joe got up of the sofa making his way over to the stairs "where are you going" Dianne said. "To get dressed, you said you want lemons so I'm going to get you lemons."
Five minutes later Joe was back downstairs fully dressed and walked over to Dianne placing a kiss on her forehead "I'll be back soon" he said as he grabbed his keys and left the apartment. Ten minutes later Dianne heard the key turning in the lock and Joe walked back into the apartment carrying a bag. He took his shoes off and walked straight into the kitchen picking up a knife and a plate. He cut a lemon into segments and took it over to Dianne who was still sitting on the sofa. "Thanks baby" she said as she took it off him taking a big bite out of one of the pieces of lemon. Joe sat down next to her winching with every bite she took. Once Dianne had finished she held the plate out to Joe "how do you manage to eat it like that" Joe said "the thought of it makes my mouth hurt." "It's yummy and just what baby wanted" Dianne said as she stroked her stomach. Joe got up taking the plate into the kitchen. When he came back Dianne said "I'm ready to go back to sleep now, that put the baby right back to sleep." Joe took her hands helping her to stand up as they made there way back upstairs. They both got back into bed and snuggled up together and where back to sleep in a few minutes.
