Love in a Box

Baby Poisoning

"A baby. Wow! A Baby!"

"You've said it about fifty times, do you believe it yet, honey?" Jessica laughs. She then climbs off of him and sits beside him on the couch.

"I still don't! Let me see your belly!" Danny lifts her shirt.

"It looks the same, I don't have a bump yet."

"It's the most perfect little none bump I've ever seen." Danny smiles and softly rubs his hand on her stomach.

Jessica laughs and places her hand on Danny's back.

"I love you."

"I love you more, my little dancing baby maker."

Jessica smiles and runs her hand through his thick hair. "Our baby better have your hair."

"That's fine with me just as long as they have your eyes, smile.. that cute little nose of yours.... and your big beautiful heart."

"Aww.. I just hope they have rhythm." Jessica pouts. "If not I'll feel so bad for them!" She laughs.

"It'd be a disgrace if your child couldn't dance, huh?" Danny chuckles.

"I'll still love them anyway!" Jessica giggles. "They don't have to dance, but I want them to be able to hold their own on a dance floor."

"Makes sense." Danny nods. "You know, it's been a long time since we've danced together.."

"It has. We've just been so busy."

Danny stands up and walks over to find one of Jessica's records to play.  He then takes her hand and helps her stand.

Jessica smiles and wraps her arms around her boyfriend.

"This is nice.."

"It sure is.  I wanna spend the rest of my life with you, Jess."

"Well good.. cause I kinda wanna spend the rest of my life with you too, Huston."

Danny smiles and kisses her lips.

2 weeks later.

Danny rolled over and reached for Jessica.  When he noticed she wasn't in bed he sat up and rubbed his eyes.

He then heard gagging coming from the bathroom.
Danny stood up and let himself in.

"Babe?  You okay?"

"It started." Jessica cries.

"What?"

"My morning sickness! I was hoping I wouldn't have it but it's here!"

Danny walks over and rubs her back. "Aw baby, I'm sorry.  It's okay, let it all out.."

Jessica takes a few deep breaths before vomiting once again.

"Aw Honey, you've really got the bubbles in your tummy, huh?"

"Danny go, I'm so disgusting!"

"I'm not going anywhere.  I want to make sure you're okay."

Jessica let's out a sob and once again throws up.

"Baby.." Danny kisses her head.

"Is this normal?"

"Yeah.  I remember when my sister was pregnant at graduation and

"Oh right, she puked as soon as you got your diploma."

"Yeah and then she was sick for months!"
