I don't own Enchanted so please don't sue. I do, however own Daniella. This is a sequel to " Miracles Happen"
Robert looked at the phone to see if he had really heard it ring for the tenth time that day. Giselle had been calling him every hour waiting him to pick up another of her cravings from the store on his way home from work.
Since Giselle became pregnant, it had been a rollercoaster each day. One minute she would be crying because she saw a sad commercial advertising a dad missing his family when he is away on a business trip. Then the next minute she was angry at him because he had forgotten to do the laundry when he came home.
There was also her weird craving s that made him have to get up at 1 and 2 in the morning to fulfill them. Her energy level had significantly dropped since third trimester as it should be.
Then again it wasn't all bad. As opposed to the first time when he was the only one who was totally enthralled with the tiny person growing inside his first wife while she treated Morgan as a parasite growing inside her, Giselle was totally in bliss.
After her pregnancy was discovered she read all the books she could find, when she saw the first ultrasound he literally had to drag her out of the office as she was staring at the photo with a look of rapture on her face and wasn't responding to his voice.
If he wasn't awaken by her request for snacks, it was that she had felt the baby move and wanted him to feel it and if he didn't respond immediately she would either poke him or kick him until he did.
Morgan was thrilled with the idea of having a younger sibling and wanted to be involved in the pregnancy as she possibly could. She requested her own copy of the ultrasound photo of her little brother or sister to put in her room and talked to the baby constantly in what she seemed to think of as private conversations.
Even though he was even enjoying the pregnancy too, he loved running his hands over his wife's growing belly, feeling his baby kick and talking to him or her, he was anxious to hold his son or daughter in his arms.
Well hopefully it is soon, Robert thought as he returned his attention to the computer screen to finish his work.
"Robert, it is Giselle. She says that she has been having the types of pain that the book describes so she called the hospital and they said for her to come right in. She asked Mrs. Baker to drive her to the hospital. She will meet you there and she asked me to remind you not to forget Morgan in your frantic rush to the hospital" Sam said in a rushed breath as she entered the office without knocking. She knew that Robert had been anxiously waiting for that call.
Robert became a human hurricane rushing around the office grabbing his coat and throwing it on backwards. He rushed out of the office but ten seconds later came back for the folders he needed for that night. After he sheepishly grabbed them with a quick "thank you" to Sam, he impatiently waited for the elevator that for some reason seemed to have slowed down to a snail's pace.
When it did arrive he ran into it and tapped his feet until it reached the garage, where he jumped into his car and peeled out of the garage, praying he didn't get caught by the police for speeding.
