Snow Season [COMPLETE]

Chapter 45

It's finally Monday, the day of your first ultrasound.

You're so excited but terrified at the same time.

"Baby, look at me. Just breathe. We don't know what's gonna happen but we also can't ignore all the obvious signs. Your boobs keep growing by the minute, you pee like, every ten minutes and you've been feeling nauseous all morning. And most importantly, there's no cramping and no blood loss."

"Yeah but I'm probably just nauseous because of the nerves."

"I'm scared, too but I've got a good feeling, babe. We should try to stay positive."

"You're probably right. So...you've been checking out my boobs, have you?"

"You bet I have." He creeps closer to you and licks his lips. He puts his hands on your waist and his eyes wonder down to your breasts. "They are exceptionally fine and exquisite breasts." He nuzzles your neck. "Are you still sore?"

"Yes! And we've got an appointment with the OB/GYN and I'm not letting you make us late for that. Plus you don't have sex before you go to the gynaecologist, it's gross." You giggle as he makes a sad crying sound.

Matt walks into the kitchen. "Ready for your ultrasound today, Hails?"

"Ready to see our baby. Scared to death we won't see a baby."

"I know you're scared. So I'm not gonna give you that "oh don't worry, everything will be fine" crap. Try to breathe, stay positive and go from there. And whatever happens, we're here for you." He kisses the top of your head and you smile.

"Thanks, Matt. I appreciate that."

Penelope comes storming into the kitchen, too. "It's baby daaaaayyyy!"

You chuckle at her enthusiasm. That's Penelope for you. Happy, sweet and optimistic.

"Yeah..."

"Don't worry, okay... Your boobs are getting more huge every day and you pee like, every ten minutes."

Matt tries to swallow a laugh but it comes out anyway.

Elijah eyes Matt. "Dude."

"I'm sorry." He just laughs and raises his shoulders. "I'm not saying P is wrong but I'm also not saying he's not wrong."

Nate and Aria join you as well and soon everyone's chatting in the kitchen. Matt is making coffee, Aria and Nate are unloading the dishwasher, Penelope is making tea and you and Elijah are grabbing everything for breakfast.

"Who wants eggs?" Aria asks.

You raise your hand like an excited school kid. "Me me me!"

Elijah nods. "Me, too, please."

Matt nods, too. "I could eat some eggs."

Penelope grabs a bowl and a box of cereal. "I'm good thanks."

"Me either," Nate says while grabbing a bowl himself.

"Scrambled or sunny side up?"

"Scrambled is fine. Thanks."

Since I'm not allowed to have runny eggs, scrambled, please."

"Hailee prefers her eggs fertilized." Matt blurts it out and you all start laughing.

"I don't think I can provide that, though. Besides, her eggs already are fertilized."

"They sure are."

"Your eggo is preggo." You burst out in laughter as Nate holds an egg in front of your belly and wiggles it around.

"Alright alright, my preggo eggo is very hungry so more scrambling and less talking."
