He Could Be The One✔️

Heartbeat

Today was my first appointment to confirm everything, and Dom went with me. He didn't want to miss a thing.

First things first, I had to pee in a cup. I hate doing that. I always get it on my hand. Once they did a test and confirmed it, the doctor examined me. He confirmed I was eight weeks along and that we had to wait two weeks before we could hear the heartbeat. I couldn't wait. The doctor scheduled my next appointment in a month. It was going to be a long month.

Over the next month, I spent more time in the bathroom than out of it. I did not understand why anyone calls it morning sickness. I was sick all day long. Mom reassured me that it would pass, but I felt like I was dying. Georgia said I was overdramatic. More comfortable for her to say, she didn't have to deal with this shit.

Our next appointment arrived, and we finally got to listen to the heartbeat. It was amazing. We were in complete awe of it, hearing that little whooshing sound through the machine.

The doctor also took an ultrasound to get measurements. I lay there looking at the screen as Dom held my hand, and the doctor lowered the wand onto my belly, moving it around.

We watched as the pictured appeared, then this little being came into view. We looked at the screen.

"That's our baby," I whispered.

"Our baby," he said as he kissed me.

Tears rolled down my cheeks as we looked at the screen. I never thought I would be this emotional over someone I had never met, but I was. How do you love someone before you meet them?

Dom looked at me as I stared at the screen in awe. I don't think I could love anything more than I do right now.

Dom's POV

Seeing Kami stare at the screen like that brought a smile to my face. I love being a part of this. I had missed out the first time, but not this time. I wanted to be part of everything regarding this pregnancy.

I was beyond excited to watch everything happen.

The doctor printed out the photo and put it in an envelope then handed it to us. I took Kami home and worked. Work had been busier than usual, especially with Georgia and Kami not there. It left their spots open with data entry.

Scott and Lina hired a new guy to fill the one spot but left the other one vacant. My guess was for Noah. I wish he would call and talk to his sisters. I didn't have siblings, so I didn't understand this, but Justin was like a brother to me. Now that we married the girls, he had become my brother.

Maybe at some point, Noah would come around, but I wanted to focus on my family.

With work getting busy and Kami's pregnancy, I was finding out quickly I was missing her. The new guy at work was driving me up the wall. Trying to get anything done was impossible. Finally, I snapped.

"What now?"

"I need you to look at these numbers," he said, shoving papers at me.

I snatched them from his hand. "They look fine."

"I just want to make sure," he said nervously.

"Davis, you have got to relax. You're driving me up the freaking wall!"

"Dom, look if I want to marry Zoe. I have to prove I can support her to her parents," he said to me.

I looked at him. I couldn't blame the guy. When I came here, it was because I needed the money to support Mikayla and I. It's just with work being busy and Kami expecting. I didn't have time to think.
