Chapter 2
The next morning Lea woke up and made breakfast for Cory. She was feeling better and was really hungry. She was just sitting down to a plate of pancakes when Cory came down. "Morning."she said as she saw him. "Morning Lea."Cory said as he gave her a kiss then sat down at the table. They sat in silence as they both ate their breakfast. Cory could tell that Lea was feeling so much better. He hoped that whatever was wrong had stopped and wouldn't happen anymore. They both finished their breakfast and headed up stairs to get ready for the day. They were starting to film season 4 episodes of glee. They were both really excited to see what would be happening on the new season. They finished getting ready and got into the car. They arrived at the studio in 10 minutes and went to get ready to shoot their scenes.
They spent most of the day at the studio shooting scenes for the new season. They finally headed home so they could relax. It was the 4th of July and they were going to be watching the fire works from their house. They had invited over Dianna and Mark to come hang out and watch the fireworks with them. They were going to have a cook out in their backyard. Dianna and Mark came over at 5 and helped make dinner. Lea and Dianna were in the kitchen while Cory and Mark were in the backyard. "So have you been feeling better?"Dianna asked Lea as they started to make the dinner. "Yeah I have been feeling fine. I still feel exhausted once and a while. I also seem to have gained some weight over the past few weeks." Lea said as she heated up the oven. Dianna wasn't sure but she thought she knew what was going on with Lea. She thought she was possibly pregnant. But she wasn't showing or anything. She didn't want to freak Lea out so she kept her thoughts to herself.
They finished cooking the dinner and headed outside to be with Cory and Mark. They had finished grilling the burgers so they all sat down to eat. Lea said she was really hungry so she at quickly. Cory was watching her eat. He had noticed that she had been eating a lot lately. He didn't think anything of it, he was just glad that she was keeping it down and not throwing up. They all finished dinner and sat around waiting for the fireworks to start. It was about 10:30 when the fireworks began. Lea and Cory cuddled up next to each other. The fireworks ended and they all headed inside. They said goodbye to Mark and Dianna and watched them drive off. Cory gave Lea a kiss and they went inside and went to bed. They both fell asleep glad to be able to have great nights like this. They both did not know that they would soon become parents.
*3 months later:
Cory woke up the next morning to make breakfast for Lea. She had been going to bed really early lately. He was trying to get her to relax and take it easy. He finished making breakfast and went and woke her. He went upstairs and gently woke her. She rolled over and said "I don't want to get up, I don't feel so great today."He looked down at her and said "Come on get up your going shopping with Dianna today." Lea rolled over and ignored him. Cory sighed and said "Ok have it your way."as he picked her up and carried her down to the kitchen. He set her down at the table and she rubbed the sleep out of her eyes. She made herself a bowl of cereal and started eating. She ate slowly then finished and got up to go shower. She finished getting ready and drove over to Dianna's house. She got into the car with Dianna and they headed to the mall. They got to the mall and walked in. They tried on lots of clothes. Lea had trouble finding things that fit her. She finally found some clothes and they headed to the food court for some lunch. Lea just ordered a salad. She ate half of it then decided that she would take it home with her. They walked around for a little while more but then headed home. Lea said her feet were hurting her badly. She thanked Dianna for taking her and drove home.
She arrived home to find Cory in the living room. She sat down next to him and stretched her feet out. "Are you more awake now?"Cory asked as he gently massaged her feet for her. "Yeah kind of."Lea said as she rested her head on the back of the couch. "How about tonight we just relax and watch TV together?"he asked as he saw her start to fall asleep. Lea just nodded and cuddled up against him. Cory woke Lea at 6 so they could eat dinner. Lea wasn't very hungry again so she just ate a little. "I'm going to bed I'm tired."Lea said as she stood up and left the room. Cory sighed and said "Ill be up in a few minutes."He was still concerned about Lea and didn't know what to do to help her feel better. He finished cleaning up and headed upstairs to their bedroom. He found Lea already laying down half asleep. She felt him get in bed and rolled over and kissed him on the lips. He kissed her on the forehead and said "get some rest ill see you in the morning." Lea just nodded and turned away from him. Cory took her in his arms and fell asleep holding her.
The next morning Cory came down stairs to find Lea on the couch with a heat pack under her back. She saw him come into the room and said "I don't think I can go to work today." He looked down at her to see that she looked really pale. He could also tell she was in pain. "Lea you don't look good at all. Do you want me to call in for you?"Cory asked as he saw how uncomfortable she looked. Lea just nodded and asked "Can you please?"as he left the room to go call and let them know that she couldn't make it. When he came back he said "I called and told them you couldn't make it. They told me to stay home and make sure you are ok." Lea nodded but didn't say anything. She wasn't expecting him to stay home with her but she was glad that she wouldn't be alone. She was in a lot of pain and it was scaring her that something was wrong. Lea stayed on the couch most of the day while Cory kept an eye on her. She wanted to get up and help him clean but he kept telling her to stay on the couch and relax.
