I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU 👪

Mitchell smiled and shook his head, "Baby girl you better come quick"

****rewrįte the ştårş****

Mitchell paced in the small room as Tess was behind the blue curtain changing into her hospital gown

He sighed and scratched his head, "You want help?"

"Did I ask for help?"

He slumped in a chair and sighed heavily, she opened the curtains and looked at him

"I'm sorry"

He smiled and nodded then stood up and walked to her folding her in a tight embrace

"I love you Mitchell please don't take my mood swings seriously"

"I'm not"

They heard footsteps behind the door and parted greeting the doctor as he entered. Both men helped Tess onto the bed. After a few minutes of tests and silence the doctor looked at the two expecting parents and smiled

"I'm happy to say there is absolutely nothing wrong....you are healthy....the baby is healthy....everything looks amazing"

"Please just tell me why this baby isn't demanding to be born yet"

"This is very normal.....many women come here complaining of the same things but there is nothing I can do unfortunately to help this along...."

Tess lay back and groaned loudly, "God I can't take this anymore"

"There is however things you two can do at home to try and speed up the pregnancy"

She sat up immediately hearing that, "WHAT!?"

He laughed and stood up taking two pamfletts from a table top near his chair and handed one to Tess and one to Mitchell

"Long walks, spicy food, sex......"

Mitchell looked up from his pamflett, "Sex?"

Tess rolled her eyes, ".....don't get any ideas"

That night they were sitting in their living room with Saen and Lorraine eating the spiciest foods they could find at the nearest takeouts, Tess slumped back against the couch groaning

"This is so hopeless.....I've walked around the park three times today I've been eating the spiciest food in LA and nothing, not even a kick....this baby is stubborn as a mule and that's coming from me"

"Oh sweetheart come on now don't get discouraged.....this will all be over before you know it"

"Agh mom I appreciate the pep talk but you've been saying that forever and at this point I feel like I'm gonna be pregnant till I'm eighty"

Mitchell took her hand and gently placed a kiss on top of it and laced their fingers together, "There is still one thing we can do you know"

"What? Swallow a rocket launcher", Saen said throwing down a chicken bone and licking his fingers

Tess scowled at him making him shrug and laugh

"I might just have to give in even though I'm not at all in the mood"

"Hey I'll get you in the mood...", Mitchell winked, "....we got that baby in there we're gonna get her out"

Tess smiled as he leaned in and kissed her momentarily forgetting about their two guests she opened her mouth and deepened the kiss.

"Hey not in front of us please"

She smiled into Mitchell's mouth as she heard Saen's voice but ignored him and continued to suck on her man's lips when she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her abdomen and pulled away abruptly
