I huff as i walk into the room. I see Leah pacing back and forth in front of her bed.

"Leah."i chuckle.

She looks up at me.

"I've been holding it in! I hate the smell of everything! I have to pee 20 times an hour!  I CAN'T EAT DAIRY!"she shouts.

"Pregnancy is no picnic, did you think it would be easy carrying around another person?"I ask.

"I can smell the leather of your belt, and it's REVOLTING!"she yells. 

I quickly take off my belt, throwing it outside the room and closing the door.

"Belt is gone, can you stop pacing?"I ask calmly.

She stops walking.

"My boobs are leaking!"she cries out.

"It's alright love. We just need to get you to the shower, you'll feel better if you shower."i say.

She runs her fingers through her hair.

"Your shirt, take it off."she demands.

"Pardon?"i ask.

"The cologne, i-i can't-"i cut her off.

"Okay, okay, it's fine"i say as i unbutton my shirt.

I pull it off, throwing it outside the room as well.

"Is that better?"i ask.

She shakes her head.

"Your pants to."she demands.

"Are you serious?"i ask.

"Jord!"she says, frightening me into submission.

"Alright, alright! Just stop while your ahead, I don't mind being naked"I say, unbuttoning my pants and pulling them off, throwing them outside the room.

I stand there in my boxer briefs as she begins to pace again. 

"Can we please get you into the bath now? If the breast milk dries on your shirt it'll never smell the same."i say.

She huffs and nods.

....

I lean against the wall, listening to her shower.

"You don't have to stand there, you know."she says.

"You worked yourself up quite a bit, I've gotta make sure you don't pass out in the shower and hurt yourself. Sudden fatigue in pregnant women is a real thing."I say.

"I'd know if i was going to pass out', she says', you should be more articulate."

"Leah, i'm standing in the bathroom in my underwear because you said my cologne smelt like acid."i say.

She pokes her head from behind the shower curtain.

"Oh, i'm sorry that my being pregnant is inconveniencing you, perhaps this wouldn't be happening if you didn't kidnap me, kill  my husband and my best friend, and then try to turn a young boy against his loving father."she says before pulling her head back into the shower.

"Oh wow, I've never seen such an aggressive side of you Leah, what happened to the well educated kind-hearted woman i met before?"i ask chuckling.

"THE BABY ATE HER!"she yells.

"Mum always warned me about american girls."i huff.
