After Paul left for work. Stephanie waited in her bedroom as the pregnancy test was loading. She was hoping and praying to be pregnant. It was driving her nuts. She thought she could be but didn't want to tell Paul yet. The timer kept ticking, then she started thinking about Paul and her. Their wedding, She remembers his face as she walked down the aisle, Such aw and a huge grin. The first date, The most romantic beach, the waves crashing, red rose petals leading to a picnic...
Then suddenly the timer went off. It was the longest two minutes of her life. She ran into the bathroom and looked at it. It had two lines. She looked at the box and two lines meant that she was pregnant. She looked down and put her hand over her stomach and started to cry. She was so excited. She couldn't wait to tell Paul. But he was working and didn't want to bother him.
She had a plan cooking. How can i do this? I want to make this special. I mean this will be our first child. I got it!
10 hours later...
Paul walked in the door. "Steph i'm home!" he said.
As she was coming down the stairs with her hands behind her back, She said "Baby" "I have a huge surprise for you!"
Paul said "Oh really, What are you hiding?"
Stephanie say's "You'll just have to come with me"
Paul said intriguingly "ok" Stephanie revealed what she had in her hands. It was a blindfold.
She lead him up to their bedroom. He was thinking about what she had for him or what is she going to do. He was thinking dirty, she was thinking baby.
"Ouch!" Paul said.
As she was leading him up the stairs, he tripped on the stairs and hurt his knee a little. "Baby" you always get hurt. Stephanie said.
"I'm ok and why do you keep saying baby like that?" Paul said.
"Oh i"m saying it weird, I didn't think I was." She said.
They got to the bedroom door. She lead him in and turned him toward the door. She took off the blindfold and said You know "baby" I love you to pieces.
She turned him around and there was a big box with a bow on the bed. She told him to open it. He opened it and there was another box and another, and another, and another until finally there was a card that read, I love you more and more each day and I got another reason to love you just open this little box to find out why. He opened it and saw this stick with two lines on it and asked what is this? She told him that i'm pregnant, we're pregnant! He smiled ear to ear and picked her up and swung her around and hugged her. I'm going to be a daddy? he asked.
She said "Yes!" He put her down and hugged and kissed her stomach. Stephanie has a big smile on her face as she was looking at Paul hugging and kissing her stomach. She loved every second of it! I love you Steph! Anything you need I will be right there by your side. He gave her a kiss and he didn't want to let her go. He was so happy. Stephanie told him that she had to set up a doctors appointment to see how far along she was.
A week later...
"Paul, get up! It's almost time to go to the doctors." She said.
He rose up and hurried to get dressed. In the matter of seconds he was dressed and ready to go. They darted out the door and hurried to the doctor's. They were almost late. They checked in, sat down, and waited. "Steph, I love you" he said and gave her a kiss. I love you too. she said back.
I got to go to work tomorrow at 6 am and ill be gone for four days do you wanna come with me? He asked.
Sure, I wanna come with you. I love seeing you wrestle. I want to support you like you support me. She said.
ok, we'll be going to LA. I got to wrestle the spirit squad with Shawn. He said.
As she was about to speak the nurse called Stephanie Levesque. They got up and followed the nurse. Her name tag said Rose. She had Stephanie get on the scale and then they headed to the rooms. "Here we are, number four." Rose said.
The Dr. Smith will be with you in one moment. Stephanie got onto the chair and Paul then hugged her and gave her a kiss on the head and sat down by her in a chair and they started to talk. "After we are done here I want to call our parents to tell them the amazing news. We got to start thinking names, stuff for the baby, bills, you being gone and I can't come with you that often, I want to stay close to home." Stephanie said.
Steph you need to stop worrying. Everything is going to be fine, I promise. Paul said.
Hello Mr. and Mrs. Levesque, are you ready to see your baby and how far are you. Dr. Smith said.
"Of course" They say in unison.
"Ok, now this is going to be cold" Dr. Smith said.
He puts the cream on her stomach and puts the ultrasound wand on her stomach. "Awwww soooooo COLD!" Stephanie said.
It looks like your three weeks along. Here' the heartbeat, it's perfect. "Wow" They both say with huge smiles. Dr. Smith say's congratulations it's perfectly healthy. Alright, we are all done here. Here's a towel to wipe off the cream. she takes it and wipes it off. Dr. Smith say's "Here's a prescription for prenatal vitamins. Take them every morning. I want to see you in two months. Have a good day Mr. and Mrs. Levesque.
They make the appointment leave the doctors and go to the pharmacy. Stephanie calls Linda to tell her that she is three weeks pregnant and Linda and Vince were thrilled to be grandparents again. Then she calls Pat to tell her and Michael, they were so thrilled.
Two weeks later...
Paul and Stephanie were at home just relaxing on the couch enjoying each others company when Stephanie just started to get morning sickness. She got up and ran to the bathroom, she had to puke and she was about to blow. She made it and slammed the door. Paul ran to see if she needed anything. He walked in saw her knelt in front of the toilet puking her guts out. He walked over sat down next to her and started to rub her back to try and calm her down. The smell was kind getting to him but he just plugged his nose. It started to work and as soon as he started. He always had some tricks up his sleeve to calm her down and feel better. Why is it called morning sickness if i just got it at night? She said.
She got up to brush her teeth. It was awful! After she got done, she gave Paul a hug and said "You got my back and I got yours now. I love you. You know what to do to help me. Truthfully, I didn't want you to see that. But i'm happy you came to my side."
He told her "When you told me you were pregnant I said, i'll be there if you need anything and you need me, so here I am. Tomorrow I got to go to Orlando, ok and i think you shouldn't go because you need to rest and I think we should ask your mom to come over to keep you company and so she can help you."
"ok" she said
"I'll go call her" Paul said.
*ring ring*
"Hello" say's Vince.
"Hey, Vince can I talk to Linda." Paul asked.
"Yah, Sure. Here she is." Vince said.
"Hello" Said Linda
"Hey Linda"
"Hey Paul"
"Hey i was wondering if you could come over tomorrow so Steph can have some company while i'm gone." Said Paul.
Why isn't she going with you? Said Linda.
"She has been feeling that morning sickness and she has been puking her guts out. I want her to stay here so she feels more at home" Said Paul.
"Ok, I will go over there tomorrow. When are you leaving and when do you think you will get back? Said Linda.
"I will leave right at 10 AM and be back around 5 AM. She would love to see you. You don't have to stay that long unless she wants you to." Said Paul.
"Well tell her I will be there. Bye Paul." Said Linda.
"Will do Linda. Bye." Said Paul.
He hangs up the phone and tells Stephanie that her mom will come tomorrow. "You can call me when ever you want honey. Even if its just to hear my voice." He says.
She smiled and kissed him. "I'm tired. I'm going to get ready for bed." Said Stephanie.
"I'll meet you up there." Paul Said.
"No funny business mister. I still don't feel good and I would appreciate if you could rub my back so I could try to sleep." Said Stephanie.
"Well..." Said Paul.
"it would only be for a minute" Said Stephanie.
"Ok honey" Said Paul.
"They both get ready for bed and get into bed. Paul rub's Stephanie's back for ten minute's and she falls asleep and a couple minutes later he too falls asleep.
3:52 AM...
Stephanie wakes up and has to puke again. Paul wake's up to see whats going on. "I wish I had the power for you to stop" I don't like when your sick. Said Paul.
But its all worth while because we are going to be parents. Said Paul while Stephanie is still puking.
He go's to calm her down. She likes having him around. She rinse's the puke out of her mouth and brushes her teeth. "Paul, could you rub my stomach this time?" Asked Stephanie.
"I'll do anything to make you feel better." Said Paul.
She smiles and hugs him. "I'm lucky that I have a man like you." She say's while hugging him.
They go back to bed. Paul soothes her to sleep and falls asleep to.
8:04 AM...
Paul wakes up and see's a sleeping Stephanie. He didn't want to disturb her because it was a long night for her, so he very quietly got out of bed and went to take a shower. Stephanie awoke when she heard Paul taking a shower. She still wasn't feeling to hot. She wanted him to stay but she knew that he was making money. At least she would get to see her mom. She walks in to talk to Paul. "I hope you get back early." Said Stephanie.
"Hey honey, I thought you were sleeping. I hope so to but I mite not get back until 5 AM." Said Paul.
"I woke up when you turned on the water." Said Stephanie.
"Are you feeling a little better?" Paul asks.
"No, But i'll be ok." Said Stephanie.
He steps out of the shower and gets a towel. He gets dressed and heads down stairs where Stephanie is sitting on the couch watching TV. He sits down by her and puts his arm around her. A little TV made Stephanie tired. She curled up to Paul and fell asleep.
It was almost 10 AM and he needed to get going so he picked up Stephanie and carried her to the bedroom and tucked her in and kissed her on the head. Then there was a knock at the door. Finally Linda was here. He went to let Linda in. He told Linda to call if she or Stephanie needed anything and told her she was sound asleep and told her why. He told her he'd call when he landed.
4 hours later...
Stephanie woke up and wondered where she was for a few seconds and where was Paul? She looked at the time. It was 2 PM. She realized that he had to leave at 10 AM. She was kinda mad that she didn't get to kiss him. She got out of bed and went down stairs and found her mom on the couch watching some TV. "Hey Mom." She said happily.
"Hey sweetie. How do you feel?" Said Linda.
"Nauseated." Said Stephanie.
"Well you got to eat something. I'll make you something. What do you want." Said Linda
"Honestly, nothing, but I know I got to try to eat something." Said Stephanie.
"Can you just make me some toast?" Stephanie Asked.
"Yeah, sure. You just lay down on the couch and rest." Said Linda.
Suddenly the phone rang. Stephanie answered. "Hello." Said Stephanie. It was Paul.
"Hey, Honey. I landed. I hope your feeling a little better." Said Paul.
"I hope I feel better to. Mom's making me some toast. I'm not really hungry." Said Stephanie.
"I wish I could be there. Are you going to watch Raw?" Paul asked.
"Yeah, if I don't fall asleep. Said Stephanie.
"That would be great if you could stay awake." Said Paul.
"Why?" Stephanie Asked.
"Oh nothing, nothing at all." Said Paul.
"I know it's not nothing" Said Stephanie.
"Now do you want to ruin a surprise?" Said Paul.
"No" Said Stephanie.
"I have to get ready for Raw ok. I love you. Bye." Said Paul.
"Ok, honey. I love you too. Bye." Said Stephanie.
Linda brought her toast and she ate it. But she wasn't feeling to hot afterwards. She kept it down though. Her and her mom talked for hours and watched Paul on Raw. Until Linda left at 10 PM. Stephanie went to bed. She tossed and turned because her stomach still was hurting. She finally fell asleep.
5 AM...
Stephanie was awoken by a kiss on the lips. Paul was home, she was happy he was back. It was his turn to surprise her with a dozen of red roses. I got these for you. He said
"They are so beautiful, Paul. Here climb in, I missed you." Said Stephanie.
"I'll climb in if you come down stairs with me." Said Paul.
"Is this the surprise you told me about?" Stephanie asked.
"Why yes it is." Said Paul
He found the blindfold that she used on him. He put it around her head. He picked her up in his arms like a baby and carried her down stairs. He put her down on the cold floor to which she said Awwww cold cold cold.
He took off the blindfold and she saw two huge teddy bears. I got one for you and one for our baby. He said.
"Paul, I love them." Said Stephanie.
"I got one for you because when you miss me you can cuddle with this." Said Paul.
"Its perfect." She said.
She ran to give him a big hug and kiss. Can you carry mine up to our room? Stephanie asked.
"Honey do you mind if I do it tomorrow? I'm tired and I wanna cuddle with my wife." Said Paul.
"ok, baby. Lets go back to bed." Said Stephanie.
Two Months later...
Stephanie and Paul were in bed sleeping. Paul's had was on her stomach like he always did. Suddenly he felt something move and he woke up really quick. He turned on the light and woke up Stephanie and she could feel it too. They looked at each other and smiled. Tomorrow will be their second ultrasound. They decided they wanted to keep the gender of the baby a mystery. "Steph this feels really cool." Said Paul.
"Try it on my end it feels even cooler." Said Stephanie.
Paul began to talk to her stomach. Telling the baby they can't wait to meet him or her and how much they loved him or her already. Stephanie was so happy that he was talking to the baby. They were tired and had to go to the doctor in the morning so they kissed and went back to sleep.
8:10 AM...
Stephanie woke up and for the first time in two months she didn't have to puke. She felt great! She took a shower and got dressed and woke up Paul. She told him that she was going to make some breakfast and it will be waiting for him after he took a shower and got dressed. He said, "Looks like someone feels a whole lot better today huh?!"
"As a matter of fact I do. I'm going to make some pancakes" Said Stephanie.
"Ok i'll see you after i'm done." Said Paul.
Stephanie made a wonderful breakfast. She and Paul actually ate together. They haven't done that since she had the morning sickness. Now that she could start to enjoy being pregnant, she could finally do more stuff with her husband. They headed out for the doctor. The doctor said the baby was healthy as a horse. The doctor wanted to see her in another two months. The made the appointment and left with a picture of their ultrasound to show the family.
They stopped at Stephanie's parents house to show to them. They were happy to know that the baby was healthy. They stayed and visited with them and Paul helped Vince with some story line ideas. Stephanie was talking to Linda about the baby and how it moved last night. Linda was so happy for them. She loved hearing stories especially one's about her future grandchildren. They left at 9 PM and right when they got home Stephanie was still feeling really good. Thank god that stupid morning sickness is gone! She and Paul wanted to get freaky and so they really had fun.
The Next Morning...
Stephanie awoke and she is the most happiest shes been in her whole life. She has the best husband, a baby on the way, and the best life ever. She did her morning route and woke up Paul with a kiss. She can't believe that she has been pregnant for three and a half months and shes already showing. and she was getting a little bigger everyday. Paul comes and kisses her and rub's her belly. "Hey Steph, now that we know the baby is still perfect, I want you to stay at the house when I go to work it just to dangerous." Said Paul.
"It's not that dangerous. Besides I like coming to the shows and I don't want to be here alone is so boring" Said Stephanie.
"I just don't you to get hurt. But I do like you going too. I got to got tomorrow to Dallas." Said Paul.
"Oh, then I really don't want to go." Said Stephanie.
"Why?" Paul asked.
"I'm hot already here I will die of the heat." Said Stephanie.
"Ok, I'll bring you another surprise for you and the baby." Said Paul.
"I wonder what you have in store." Said Stephanie.
9 AM...
Paul woke up in a hurry. His plane left at ten and if he wanted to take a shower, get dressed, and eat some breakfast. Don't mention the traffic. he took a two minute shower, took him 5 minutes to get dressed, and he scarfed down his breakfast. He kissed Stephanie and left. Stephanie went out to get some things for the baby. She found a lot of cute things and bought most of all of them. She couldn't wait to show Paul. She got a bassinet, crib, and a lot of girls clothes. She is hoping for a girl. But she bought some boy things to just in case. She drove home and brought in the bags. The crib and bassinet was to heavy for her so she left them in the car.
Two Months Later...
8 PM...
Paul came home early. Steph, i'm home.
"Hey honey, hows our little munchkin doing?" Paul asked.
"He or she has been a little a monster. The baby has been moving all day." Stephanie said.
"Have you been a pain for mommy." Said Paul.
"When we go to the doctor tomorrow I want to find out if its a boy or a girl." Said Stephanie.
"I want to know already too. The baby keeps kicking me at night." Said Paul.
"I know the baby keeps me awake too. It looks like we have a little fighter, she takes after her daddy you know." Stephanie said.
"I'm so tired, so i'm going bed are you coming?" Paul asked.
"I will if this little munchkin calms down. I'm coming." Stephanie said.
They go to bed and the baby keeps moving, making it impossible for Stephanie to sleep. She tries singing to the baby to make it stop. She starts to sing twinkle twinkle little star... and it stops. She can't believe it. She can finally sleep. She rolls over and tries to go to sleep before it happens again. Two minutes later the moving starts up again. How can a little baby have so much energy? She starts singing again. In the mist of all with Stephanie, Paul wakes up to her singing. What are you doing, Steph? Paul asked.
I found a trick! When I start to sing the baby stops moving. I can finally get to sleep if I sing long enough. Am I bothering you? Stephanie asks.
"Just a little." Paul says.
The baby starts to move again. "Paul, can you rub my stomach while I sing. Its the only why i can get to sleep." Stephanie says.
"Ok, we can try this." Paul said.
Paul rubbed her stomach while she sang for five minutes. They waited and no moving. She finally got to sleep.
9 AM...
Stephanie once again awoke to the baby moving. At least she found a trick to go to sleep if it keeps working though. She woke up Paul and asked if he could rub my stomach it always calms me and the baby down. she said.
"Anything for my two favorite people." Paul says.
They lie back down facing each other. Stephanie gets as close as she can to him because he stomach so big and is still getting bigger. Paul starts to rub her stomach, calming both mother and child, and also creating a stronger bond between all of them. They accidentally fall back asleep. They wake up one minute before their appointment. Stephanie woke up with Paul's hand on her stomach and of course the moving again, which she liked and also hated. she looked at the clock and hurried as she was getting dressed she kept yelling at Paul to wake up and get dressed. Paul hurried and they flew out the door and were just ten minutes late. At least they still took them. The doctor said that it was a girl. Stephanie and Paul are overjoyed to be having a little girl. "Now that we can stop calling her "it", we can think up a beautiful name together." Paul said.
"Dr. Smith do you know why she is just so active like all the time." Stephanie asked.
"That's a good sign. She a healthy little baby." Dr. Smith said.
"We'll see you in two months again" He said.
They leave and go home and clean out the extra bedroom for the baby. The two of them paint the room pink and have fun while doing it. A paint fight broke out and half of their bodies were pink. Then they tried to set up the crib but failed so they call a handyman to do it and they ask him if he could do the bassinet as well. Everything they need for her they got and its only five months into the pregnancy. She is well wanted. Just four more months and she will be here.
Stephanie was in their bedroom and Paul was downstairs watching TV.
Then all of a sudden Stephanie was super happy then super sad. She was bawling her eyes out. Paul heard her and came running. He came in and hugged her and asked whats the matter. She was so tired and couldn't find her big teddy bear to cuddle up with because Paul didn't want to sleep. "Paul can you just lay down with me. I want you."
"Sure, i'll be your teddy bear to cuddle up with." Said Paul.
"No, you're my superman." She said.
They lie down face to face and try to cuddle and Paul rub's Stephanie stomach and she falls asleep and he lays there and just keeps rubbing her stomach till his arm got tired. He moves closer to cuddle more and he feels the baby kick him. Paul falls asleep and they can sleep in peace since he calmed her and the baby.
