He walked into the mansion to find it devoid of any sound. He was two hours late from work due to an emergency meeting and didn't get to call his wife. The quietness was very unusual especially this time of the day. He hung up his coat and made his way through the mansion to find any sign of life. He searched all of downstairs softly calling out his wife's name before making his way up the stairs.
He stepped into the master bedroom he saw his wife on the middle of the massive bed curled in sleep. He took a moment to stare at her. He loved to watch her sleep. She looked so innocent then, like a child. As he lay down beside her he smiled as she unconsciously turned into the warmth his body provided. Her eyes slowly opened and green met brown. He smiled softly at her as she sleepily said his name. He replied softly, "Hey. What did the doctor say?" He was referring to the doctor's appointment that she had that afternoon because she wasn't feeling well all week.
"I'm fine," she said now fully awake, "we're fine."
"What do you mean 'we're fine'?" he asked hope laced within his voice.
She smiled softly at him and whispered, "I'm pregnant."
