The Changes We Make

Still there? Ok here we go again. Yeah I know it’s been awhile but this college thing takes a lot of time lol. Please tell me what you think, so I know if I should keep posting.

 The last month went by just fine, no more drunken episodes, he seemed to settle down more, I think he started to realize everything that was happening, thank god. At our next checkup, I walked into the small room, and weighted for the Dr to come in. He asked me the normal questions, and I answer most, but not all to his liking “Have you quit drinking coffee?” “Hum well mostly” “NO!” Daniel chimes in. “Fine, no, I drink ONE cup each morning, it’s better then three or four a day” “Yes it is Darren, but I said NO coffee.” “But I like it,” I whined. “Would you like your baby to be healthy?” “Well yes!” “Then quit with the coffee huh?” “Yes Dr,” I said looking at the ground. ”Oh yes, have you been eating a lot junk food or snacks as of lately?” “Um well I-!“ Daniel then decided to iousiously but in once again. “Well actually Dr. I have noticed that he has been eating a lot of junk lately like popcorn with candy in it, and cheetos, and ice cream. And he doesn’t eat regular ice cream he puts all kinds of weird stuff in it like candy corn and twix bars.” ”Gee thanks Dan,” I said tng ang a little red. “Darren you know that is not good for you or the baby!” the Dr. said semi firmly. “I know but I can’t help it I just want that kind of stuff all the time.” “Well that’s understandable, bat you should only have it sometimes not all of the time. Because you have been eating so much of it it’s starting to show a little. I’m not saying this to be mean, I just want you Dan and the baby to be happy and healthy. I don’t wanna here you complaining of how fat you are after the baby, I don’t want to put poor Dan through that. I remember when my husband had our first he was still huge after the baby and all I heard was “I’m so fat” he said doing a feminine Impression to mock his husband. “Ok ok I get the point” I said. “Well that about raps it up, everything else is just fine” The Dr shook my hand showing he didn’t mean to upset me, and then shook Daniels. They grinned at each other, and laughed.

When we got in the car I think Dan could tell that I was kind of sad. “Hey baby what’s wrong?” “I feel really embarrassed,” I cried. “Aw don’t be embarrassed he was just telling you that stuff so you won’t end up like that, not that you are.” “He said I was starting to look like it though.” “Well he’s a Dr. and I guess he can see those types of things before they become a big problem, but you don’t look like it to me.” “Well then why did you tell on me then?” “Tell on you?” “Yeah you told the Dr. about all the stuff I eat?” “I don’t know, you weren’t saying much so I just told him, I wasn’t trying to embarrass you, I was just answering the guy’s question. I really wasn’t thinking about what I said.” “Oh!” was all I said. “Well baby it’s not that big of a deal you just can’t eat a lot of junk food. We can find other things for you Ok.” “Ok,” I said softly, still not looking at him. “Well I have to get back to work Ok, so I’ll drop you off at home, and pick you up right after work.” “Ok,” I said, as we pulled up in front of our house. I was about to get out, when Daniel pulled me back. “Forgetting something,” he said batting his eyes at me. I then gave him a sweet kiss on the lips. “I love you Darren, and don’t be upset Ok, you look just fine.” “I love you too baby, see you after work.” With that I got out of the car, and went inside to take a nap.

That night we were to have dinner with Daniels parents. On the way there my stomach started to rumble. “Damn baby sounds like an earth quake down there” Daniel laughed, patting my stomach. “Out uut up,“ I said jokingly, and kissed him on the cheek. “So can I eat tonight or will I have to munch on a lettuce leaf?” I asked. “Darre “ was all Daniel said as we pulled in to the driveway. I managed to do good that night at dinner, eating lots of dinner, but only a little ice cream. Once dinner ended, we went in to watch TV. When it started to get late, and when I started crying, because Daniel yelled at his parent’s cat for scratching him, he decided to take me home for bed. “I am not a baby!” I cried once in the car. “I do not need to be told when to go home or take a nap”. ”I’m sorry you just seemed very tired and irritable, I mean I just yelled at it, the way you went off, you would have thought I had killed it” “Well it’s only a cat, plus snowflake, is a nice cat” “Darren you hate cat’s” “not snowflake I don’t” “Ok I’m sorry I shouldn’t have yelled at the cat, I’ll never dream of doing it again.” “Stop being sarcastic!” I snapped. “Fine, then would your like to go home and go to bed?” he asked trying to keep his cool. “Yes” I huffed. “Ok then why are you making such a big deal?” “Because I decide when I go to bed not your” I barked at him. “I was just trying to be nice, and let you rest, plus you’re nasty when you’re tired” “I am not!” I said as I began to cry. “Baby don’t cry I’m not mad at you I was just trying to-” ”I know Daniel I’m sorry, I’m just tired and, let’s go home Ok” I cried. “That’s a good idea,” he said grinning at me and driving home.

When we got home Daniel went with me upstairs, and we both lay down together. Before we fell asleep, I put my head on his chest. “I’m sorry I get so upset, I don’t know what makes me this way. It’s like I can’t control it.” “It’s because you’re almost six months pregnant, and I understand why you get upset most of the time,” he said stroking my hair.” “Ok baby I love you.” “I love you too; now go to sleep honey you need to rest.” With that I snuggled closer to him, and we both drifted into a deep sleep.

Thanks alot I hope you all liked it. I should have the next chapter up soon, now that I have internet again.
