2 July 2012
Two days had passed since I found out I was pregnant. Lucy stayed over at Tom's the last night, so I didn't wake her as I dashed to the toilet, as I was almost finished, someone swept the hair out of my way, holding it up for me. I rinsed my mouth out, 'thanks Lucy.' I exhaled. 'one of the perks of being pregnant.' I said cheerfully. Then they wrapped their arms around me from behind, I turned to see who it was. 'Adam....Adam!' I squealed, I hugged him and covered his face in tiny kisses. 'I got your letter and came straight home, they knew not to argue with me.' he grinned. Then he held my face and kissed me tenderly. His hands moving to my stomach. I looked up at him and smiled, 'I can't believe it...' he exclaimed, he picked me up, spinning me round both of us grinning like fools. 'we should book a scan.' he said excitedly. 'I've already done it.' I smiled 'it's next Week, dr Harris sends his congratulations.' He leant down and kissed me again, slowly, telling me just how much he loved me through the kiss. I pulled away with my eyes filled with tears, Adam gently wiped away one that escaped heading towards my chin. We both gazed at each other, neither of us really believing that the other was really standing in front of them. My stomach let out a low growl, Adam laughed and asked if I wanted anything. I was getting cravings for berries and he left to go and get some. I pulled out my laptop but kept it away from my stomach, I went online and ordered a pregnancy book, so that I did everything right for our unborn child. That night as I padded out of the bathroom, Adam stopped me 'lift your shirt up.' I did so hesitantly exposing my still flat stomach 'I'm going to take a photo of you every week so we can see how much bigger you get.' I smiled and then threw a pillow at him, 'turn that phone off, I don't want any of those waves hurting my baby.' I said, affectionately rubbing my stomach. I flopped down next to Adam, 'I can't wait until we can feel the baby kick.' Adam said excitedly. I grinned back, both of us staring at my smooth stomach that would soon raise as it grew with our baby.
