I woke up to breakfast in bed and a shirtless Daniel rubbing my arm.

D: Good morning beautiful.

I bit my lip looking at his shirtless, damn Daniel. Maybe it was just my crazy pregnant hormones or because it's been over a month but, the man had quite a body.

E: Hi my handsome boy.

I took his chin between my fingers and kisses his nose. Then I began tracing his jawline.

D: How are you this afternoon love?

I pulled my hand away.

E: Good...wait afternoon?!

D: Yeah, 12:30—-7. It's 12:37

E: What?! I'm so sorry Daniel, I haven't had sleep in so long...I was so sca—

D: It's ok. Calm down

He rubbed my cheek and smiled.

D: Don't worry about it. I just got up like 45 minutes ago. I haven't slept that much either.

E: That's my fault huh?

D: Nothing's ever your fault Ella.

E: The baby is...

D: Ella! Stop! It's my fault if anyones and it's not even that bad. I am so happy to have a baby with you my love.

E: I am too Daniel. It's just—

D: It's just nothing. You're going to be an amazing mom.

His soothing voice was so reassuring. I had no worries when he told me I didn't and he could make me believe grass was blue and the sky was white.

He could easily make me believe and love anything he said. I loved that about him.

D: In too deep in our thoughts love? To answer me?

I snapped beach to reality. Realizing he had been actually talking to me this whole time. I was distracted by his voice.

E: Hmm?

D: I asked if you, would like to go on a magical date tonight?

He kissed my cheek.

E: I would love that.

D: But I thought we could do something else slightly more serious before that.

E: Which is?

D: I was wondering if we could go to an appointment and check up on our little squish.

He kissed my stomach and smiled.

E: You want to come?

D: Ella! Of course I want to come! I want to know the gender and I want to hold your hand and I wanna—well if you want me there of course because if—

I put my finger to his mouth to shush him.

E: I would love that Daniel.

D: Great cause I already made the appointment

I laughed and rolled my eyes.

E: Daniel?! What if I had said no?!

D: I wouldn't take No for an answer and plus I have many forms of asking.
