H&J Lockdown

21

I didn't end up talking to him the next morning or at all until almost a week later when he text me to confirm our doctors appointment for tomorrow. During that time he only tried to call me less then a handful of times but he did drop off some of my clothes and favorite treats at the hotel lobby the longer I extended my stay.

He was mad at me and I was mad at him. We have always had different views on privacy especially where our friends are concerned. I was paranoid and strict about it and he wasn't at all unless it came to me, because he knew how I felt about it.

I knew it was hard on him and I knew I could be annoying about it at times. He never really hid I was his, from public interviews to when we were together but he kept it private to the public when he spoke on it, which is where it mattered to me.

Our relationship was one thing for people to know about now and our baby was another. Of course people would find out eventually and we would have to tell them but we hadn't even had our first real doctors appointment yet and it felt like I had no control over the world finding out before I was ready and it made me mad.

He was mad because he wanted to protect me and he felt like I wasn't letting him. He didn't understand, I didn't leave because of what happened with the guy coming in his room- even though I didn't know if I felt comfortable staying there anymore if his friends had people over but it wasn't my home and it wasn't fair for me to tell them that.

Curiosity and boredom got to me after I responded to his text and I ended up checking social media, seeing he wasn't sitting at home sulking and had been hanging out with friends. I tried not letting it bother me seeing him having fun, while I sat here sulking, waiting for him to apologize. Tomorrow I would have to see him at the appointment and hopefully I could get some answers as far as traveling so I didn't have to live in a hotel any longer if he was done with me.

I couldn't sleep after seeing that and woke up early the next morning for the appointment. I took a long shower and took my time getting ready, trying to look my best. I left the hotel early, nervous about traveling on my own to the appointment but when I got to the hotel lobby I found Hero walking through the doors to find me.

"Ready?" He asks walking up to me but keeping his distance.

I nod my head, "Are you?"

He doesn't answer and instead turns to leave so I follow him out to a waiting cab.

The ride to the doctor was filled with tense silence, neither of us trying to start a conversation with the other. Waiting for the doctor in the exam room wasn't any different and when he finally came in I could have kissed him in relief.

After going over everything that went on since we had last been in, he decided to do a abdominal ultra sound to see how far along I was because he was sure I was further along then most women at their first appointments since we had a hard time another appointment with the virus.

I lift my shirt as he tucks a towel into the top of my pants before spreading gel on my stomach and moving the wand around. Hero sits quietly in a chair on off to my left, covering his nose and mouth with his hands as he watches the screen fill off to my right.

My eyes fill with tears seeing our baby on the screen and I hang on every word the doctor says as he goes over everything. Hearing the heartbeat makes me choke up more and I feel Hero standing next to me seconds later taking my hand in his.

"Well that about covers it, everything looks perfect but you are further along then I expected. It is measuring you almost to 17 weeks. Would you like to see the sex?" The doctor asks finishing up.

I look up to Hero as he waits for me to answer. "Can you write it down and put it in a envelope for us?" I ask, suddenly wanting to do a fun gender reveal like everyone else and knowing its something that Hero wants to do.

The doctor agrees and hands the envelope to Hero when we are finished before leaving the room. Everything was perfect with the pregnancy and he advised I was okay to travel but warned against it with the pandemic.

I clean the gel off of my stomach and fix my clothes as Hero watches me, still not saying anything.

I grab my purse to leave but he moves to me, grabbing it and setting it back in the chair before grabbing me and kissing me like his life depends on it.

I dig my nails through his hair and he picks me up trying to take things further but I pull back kissing him softly.

"We need to go." I tell him and he sighs putting me down but not releasing me.

"Your tits are so swollen now they are killing me." He whispers palming them. I smack his hands away, trying not to moan as the sensation goes straight to my core because of how sensitive they are.

I grab my things to leave and he follows as we make our way outside.

He rides with me back to my hotel, not talking to me but laying his head on my shoulder and rubbing my belly lightly, even though there is no visible sign of a baby there yet.

"Can we get your things and go home?" He asks just as the driver pulls to the hotel. I smile at him, not wanting to leave him and nod my head in agreement.

*I just wanted to say thank you to everyone for reading! And for liking and commenting!

Any predictions of the sex of the baby?
