FOREVER

Chapter 8: To Help

Kim POV

I start to wake up and as I open my eyes and look around,  'this isn't my apartment' I think to myself, I then remember that I slept at Adams. That's when I feel the strong arm laying over my waist covering my stomach and I feel the warm body cuddled with me.  I'm so confused, I don't know what to feel.

On one hand I love Adam, always have and being with him like this is amazing and perfect but on the other hand I shouldn't be here or doing this because he's only being like this because of the baby. Before I can think any further I begin the feel nauseous and quickly get out of the bed and head to the bathroom to begin throwing up. As I'm coughing I feel Adam behind me pulling my hair back and tying it up.

I finish and step to the sink washing my mouth out and Adam gives me some mouthwash to help too.  He's standing right next to stroking my arm to try and sooth me, it's sweet but also makes me feel kind of uncomfortable so I move away from the sink and as I go to leave the bathroom he grabs my arm to halt me.

Adam: "Hey hey hey woah slow down you don't need to rush it's okay it's a Saturday"

Kim: "Yeah I know that but I have things I gotta do Adam so please can I go get changed so I can leave"

Adam: "Of course but let me get some food and fluids in you first before you please"

Kim: "Okay fine but nothing too big and something quick"

Adam: "Alright gimme 10 minutes and remember I'm here to help"

He leaves letting me go back to the guest room to but on my clothes from yesterday, by the time I'm done I go out into the kitchen to see him serving up the food. I sit down and eat the piece of toast and egg along with decaf coffee that he made. We make some small talk avoiding the topic of the baby and us. I just finished the food and was about to place it in the sink and leave when he stopped me.

Adam: "So I was kinda wanting to spend the day with you, you know like relaxing together or going out maybe to the park for a walk I'm not sure I wa-"

Kim: "Adam, look I know you want to be here and everything but I just need a little space and I have things that I need to do okay alright so I need to do them"

Adam: "Oh okay but hey maybe we can have dinner again that was nice"

Kim: "I would but every Saturday we have free I have dinner with a group of us girls at Hailey and Rojas' place sorry Adam, maybe another time"

Adam: "Yeah sure okay well guess I'll see you whenever"

Kim: "Yeah bye"

I opened his door and he closed it behind me and made my way down the stairs and out of the building. I generally had things to do today and I didn't mean to make him upset but they are important. I get in my car and start making my way back to my own apartment.

The first thing I do when I get home is head straight to the bathroom to take a long warm shower. the warm water feels so good on my skin and it helps relax me a lot. After the long shower I go to my room to change I decide on some black leggings, a loose red t-shirt and a light grey hoodie as I wanted to be comfy when running errands. I put on no make up and  let my hair naturally dry and I go around my house tidying up things and seeing what food I have and need.

I pass the clock in my living area and see that it's 11:30 and I decide it's time to get going so I grab my purse and head out. I drive to the supermarket and slowly make my way around picking up different fruits, vegetables, pastas and of course I got myself more ice cream. I decided to walk down the baby isle as I made my way to the checkout it was mainly baby food, nappies and dummies but there were some clothes. I picked up a little white babygrow with small yellow ducks covering it, I couldn't help but let a small smile creep across my face imagining my baby in it just makes me feel so happy.
