The next day I wake up and smell bacon.
She cooks for me.  I take a shower and look at my phone.

D: All of these look good.  No need to do a second take.  Enjoy your girl.

A: Thanks.  I plan to.

I had Instagram notifications. It was all pictures of us. I'm good with that.

I walk downstairs.

A: Do you have Instagram?
C: I don't really like social media. If I want people to know business, I'll tell them.
A: How do you feel about people knowing about us?
C: As long as you are ok with it, I'm ok with it too.
A: How did I get so lucky?
C: Austin, I'm not what you're used to.  Are you ok with that?
A: I fucking love that.

We went to her house and I met her family. They weren't that bad. We flew back to our home and a few weeks had gone by.

I wake up to breakfast in bed.

C: What are your plans for this morning?
A: I don't have any.

I finished eating.

C: I have a surprise for you.

I looked at her.  I opened the box. It's a positive pregnancy test.

C: Happy birthday!  We have a doctor's appointment today. We get to see the baby.
C: Are you ok?  I'm sorry, I thought.

I grabbed her and pulled her to me.

A: This is the best present ever. Thank you, baby.
C: We need to be there in an hour.  We can take my car. Less attention.
A: Ok. I'm still driving.
C: whatever you want.
