Preference 38: You Feel the Baby Kick

Calum: You sit on the couch, resting your head on Calum's shoulder as he flips lazily through the channels. "Woah," You say suddenly, sitting up straight. "What? Are you okay? Is the baby okay?" Calum asks, alarmed. "I think I felt it kick!" You tell him excitedly. "I wanna feel!" He replies, moving closer to you. You take his hand and place it on your stomach, moving it around and waiting for the baby to move again. "Wow," Calum breathes, looking at you with a wide smile. "Did you feel that?" You ask, smiling back. He nods, unable to form words as he continues to feel for the baby. "There's a little person in there," he whispers in awe. "Yeah," you say with a smile, "And he's our little person."

Michael: "Michael!" You call, rushing into the bedroom where he lay asleep. "What?" He groans, rolling over. "Michael, I felt the baby kick!" You tell him, smiling widely. "What?!" He repeats, sitting up immediately. "I felt the baby kick!" You repeat. "Come here!" He says, holding his arms out toward you. You sit on the edge of the bed and place his hands on your stomach, waiting in silence. "I don't feel it," he whispers. "Just wait it'll happen again soon," you say hopefully. A moment later you feel it, and look at Michael. "I felt it!" He says excitedly, "That's our baby!" You nod, smiling at Michael. "Hi, baby, this is Daddy!" He says to your stomach, making you laugh. You feel another kick and Michael must, too, because he adds, "I think you're gonna be a kick boxer."

Luke: "How's the baby?" Luke asks as he attempts to steady his laptop on the moving bus. "It seems good," you reply with a shrug, "Nothing's happened, but the doctor said I'll feel movement soon." "I miss you both," Luke sighs, smiling sadly. "We miss you," you reply, looking away quickly to hide the tears forming in your eyes. Suddenly you feel a kick and gasp, looking down at your stomach. "What?" Luke asks quickly, "Are you okay?" "I think it kicked!" You tell him, feeling your stomach and waiting for another kick. "It kicked again!" You squeal. "Really?" Luke asks, looking at you curiously. You nod, smiling at him. "I wanna feel it!" He says sadly. "I know, babe," you sigh, "You'll be home next week, though and I bet it'll be kicking even more by then." "Okay," Luke agrees, "Just don't let it do anything exciting until I get back." "Deal," you laugh.

Ashton: You wait impatiently for Ashton to pick up the phone, tapping your foot nervously. "Hello?" You hear finally. "Ash, are you almost home?" You ask immediately. "I was gonna stop and get take out," he tells you, "Why? Are you alright?" "I'm fine, but the baby's kicking!" You squeal. "Woah! I'll be right home," he says quickly, "Keep it, uh, active. I wanna feel it!" He hangs up and you wait, hoping he'll be home in time to feel it. In a few minutes you hear the door open and hurry toward Ashton. "Is it still moving?" He asks hopefully. You nod and he timidly places his hand on your stomach. "C'mon, kick Mommy's tummy," he whispers to your stomach. You feel a kick and Ashton looks at you excitedly. "I felt it!" He says, smiling wide. You nod, laughing and he returns his attention to your stomach. "Kick Mommy again!" He cheers, making you laugh.
