Someone Unexpected

(Emily's POV)

I open my eyes, feeling someone shaking me lightly, "Hey Ems, wake up!", I hear Daniel's voice say softly. I look up to see Daniel, smiling at me softly, "Good Morning Sunshine", he says with a smile. I groan and face plant my face into the pillow, "I don't wanna get up!", I say as I pull the covers over me. Daniel sighs, "We have an ultrasound appointment today! Remember every month we have to check on the baby?", he asks as he rips the covers off of me. I sigh, curling up in a little ball to keep warm, "I don't wanna go! I wanna stay in bed all day!", I say in a whiny tone. Daniel sighs, grabbing my feet and pulling me slowly, "Well we have to go after the appointment we can be lazy!", he says as he drags me slowly. I then turn around and rip my feet from his hands, "Hey! You know to be careful when dragging me!", I say. Daniel looks worried, getting on the bed and sitting next to me, "Sorry!", he says. He then lays his hand on my baby bump, rubbing it, "Sorry my little princess", he says as he rubs my stomach. I raise my eyebrows, "Oh she is your little princess now?", I ask, smiling. Daniel looks up at me, smiling, "Yeah! My little duck got old besides, we are the Graysons", he says, smiling. I laugh, "Whatever", I say, rolling my eyes, smiling. Daniel leans towards me, giving me a kiss on the lips, "Come on, we have to get up", he says as he gets off the bed, heading downstairs. I yawn, feeling sleepy, "I'll be down there in 5 minutes", I say as I plop my head back on the pillow. I close my eyes, feeling nice and relaxed, "Come on Ems, we are going to be late!", says Daniel from downstairs. I stay on the bed, my face planted into the pillow, "Don't make me come up there and tickle you in your ticklish spots!", says Daniel. I stay on the bed, not caring whatsoever, "I don't have a ticklish spot, so whatever", I say as I pull the covers over me again. I then hear Daniel's footsteps coming up the stairs, "I'm coming up to tickle you!", he says, his voice getting closer. I roll my eyes, keeping my face into the pillow. I then feel someone lay next to me, tickling me on my neck, "Ahhh, that feels weird!", I say, turning towards Daniel. Daniel smiles, bopping my nose, "Well, you need to get up, I'll do whatever it takes to get you up, we are going to this appointment no matter what!", he says as he turns me over on my back. I stare into his eyes, smiling, "Well, what if I don't wanna get up?", I ask, smiling. Daniel smiles, "Well, you are going to have too", he says as he tickles me. I laugh, "Daniel stop!", I say, laughing. Daniel laughs, "Well then get up!", he says laughing. I laugh, "I don't want to though", I say. Daniel then kisses my neck, trailing to my lips, "Well, it'll only take 10 minutes, we are just checking if the baby is healthy", he says. I roll my eyes, "Why do we have to do this every month? It's annoying", I say softly. Daniel smiles, "To check up on her, come on, you really asked me that?", he asks. I shrug my shoulders, "Well yeah, I'm a beginner parent, I need to know this stuff", I say with a small smile. Daniel laughs, "I even know this and your the one that should know this instead of me", he says. I shrug my shoulders, "Well, I've never read up on babies so I don't know!", I say. Daniel laughs, "Me neither!", he says. I laugh, "Fine! I'll get up!", I say as I sit up in bed, rubbing my eyes. Daniel sits up with me, "Thank you, get dressed, we are already late!", he says as he heads downstairs. I sigh, getting some jeans and a t-shirt, putting them on. I then head downstairs, seeing Daniel in a grey shirt, with some shorts on, "You ready?", he asks. I nod, "Yes, I am", I say as I put my flats on, grabbing his hand. We then head out, going to the clinic.

10 minutes later

"Mr. and Mrs. Grayson!", the nurse calls out. Daniel and I stand up, "Thank you for coming to the appointment", says Daniel as we walk into a room. I sigh, "Well, you practically forced me out of bed so I had to come!", I say with a small smile. Daniel smiles as I sit on the bench, him standing next to me, holding my hand, "Hello guys! I'll be your nurse today!", says a lady as she closes the door behind her. I nod, laying down on the comfy bed, "I'm just asking, why is this bed so comfy?", I ask out loud. Daniel laughs, "Probably because you're in a sleepy mood, you wanna go to bed still?", he asks. I raise my eyebrows, looking at him, "What do you think?", I ask with a small smile. Daniel laughs, "Okay, check-up today?", the nurse asks. Daniel nods, "She hasn't had a check-up since she was 3 months, I just wanna make sure today since she's 4 months", exclaims Daniel. The nurse nods, "Well, I'm glad you took her, she needs a check-up every month", says the nurse. Daniel looks at me, "See? Told you", he says. I roll my eyes, "Fine! You were right!", I say. The nurse laughs, putting the wand on my stomach, "Ahhhh, that feels so weird and it's cold, I was so warm!", I say, wiggling around. Daniel laughs, "Stop moving!", he says laughing. I laugh, "I'm sorry, it feels weird, ahh", I say. Daniel looks at me, "I know but, it'll take only a couple of minutes", he says. I sigh, "Fine!", I say. The nurse looks up at the monitor, "Ummm", says the nurse. Daniel looks at the nurse worriedly, "Is everything okay?", he asks, squeezing my hand. The nurse sighs, "Yeah um, I might have to go get a doctor", she says as she exits the room. Daniel looks at me worriedly, "You've been keeping healthy right Ems?", he ask softly. I nod, "Yeah, You know I listen to you", I say softly. A doctor comes in, smiling, "Hello guys!", he says. Daniel looks at the doctor worriedly, "Is our baby okay?", asks Daniel. The doctor smiles, "Let's see right now!", he says. The doctor then looks at the monitor, moving the wand around Emily's stomach, "Well, it looks like the baby is smaller then she should be at 4 months", he says softly. I look at Daniel, "Is that a bad thing?", asks Daniel. The doctor turns towards Daniel, "Not really I mean, depends what is causing it", he says. The doctor then turns off the monitor, wiping the gel off Emily's stomach, "Emily, are you experiencing any symptoms that you should be experiencing at 4 months?", asks the doctor. I shrug my shoulders, "I'm just always tired, nothing else", I say. The doctor sighs, "Well, come back in 5 months, if your baby is still small, there might be something wrong, at 3 months, was the baby small?", he asks. I shrug my shoulders, "I don't' remember, I was tired and just wanted to get the check-up over with", I say softly. The doctor nods, "We'll look more into it, for now, we'll see if it's just normal or there is actually something wrong", he says. Daniel nods, shaking the doctor's hand, "Thank you so much! For double-checking!" he says. The doctor smiles softly, "Thank your nurse, she is the one that caught it first", she says. The nurse comes in, nodding, "Thank you for telling us this!", exclaims Daniel. The nurse nods, "Well, we'll see you in a month", says the doctor. Daniel nods, taking my hand as we head out of the clinic.

10 minutes later

"Your sure you've been healthy? No junk food?", asks Daniel as we walk into the beach house. I nod, "Yes Daniel, I've been following your directions", I say softly as I close the door. Daniel turns towards me, "I hope you're not lying to me", he says softly. I raise my eyebrows, "You think I would lie to you?", I say madly. Daniel looks at me, coming towards me, "Yeah, your known to be very good at lying!", he says madly. I shake my head, "You know I don't lie to you! I would never lie to you!", I say, raising my voice. Daniel sighs, "I never know that! You could be lying to me right now!", he says madly. I sigh madly, crossing my arms, "I'M NOT LYING!", I say madly, yelling. Daniel sighs, "Whatever", he says as he heads upstairs. I sigh, the hormones getting to me. Tears come down my cheeks as I go sit on the couch, curling up in a ball. I put my face in between my knees and start to cry softly.

20 minutes later

I wake up in our bed, blankets over me. I sit up, remembering our argument. I sigh, getting out of bed and walk downstairs, seeing Daniel reading a book, "What are you reading?", I ask softly. Daniel looks up from his book and sighs, "How to be a good parent", he says softly. I walk over to him and sit next to him, leaning my head on his shoulder, "You are already a good parent, taking care of me", I say softly. Daniel sighs softly, closing the book, "I'm not, I'm arguing about you lying! Parents don't fight with each other", he says softly. I shake my head, "You didn't mean it, I understand", I say. Daniel strokes my hair, looking down, "I'm sorry I accused you of lying it's just, I want our child to be okay!", he says softly. I nod, "I understand, your scared, It's okay Daniel, it's gonna be okay", I say, taking his hand in mine. Daniel squeezes my hand softly, looking at me, "Thank you!", he says softly. I nod, "Anytime!", I say softly. I then hear a knock on the door, "I'll get it!", I say softly as I get up from the couch, heading towards the door. I then open the door, frozen, "Hey Emily! Long-time no see", I hear Aiden's voice say.
