Chapter 4 – How many choices!
Jane's P.O.V
"Hi, can I help you today?" The lady at the counter smiled. It was exactly a nice smile, more like a forced smile.
"Yes, my wife has just found out she's pregnant and we're going to need everything for the baby's room." Kevin smiled and pulled me close. He wrapped his arms around my waist. The counter lady tilted her head, winced, and then smiled.
"Well, most people that come in here are looking for baby things. I meant specifically."
This lady surely didn't seem like someone I would normally interact with but I guess I didn't have a choice. I decided to cut in before things got ugly.
"We're not sure whether it's a boy or a girl, so we're thinking something unisex possibly a yellow for the wall. We'll need a basinet, a crib, a change table and a dresser for now." The lady finally looked pleased to see that someone knew what they were talking about.
"How did you know all that?" Kevin whispered in my ear.
"I've been planning my life out since I was little." I teased. Kevin smiled.
"Well, why don't we start with the cribs?" The lady smiled and came out from behind her counter.
Kevin's P.O.V
After five different baby stores and the Home Depot, we finally got what we needed. Jane decided she loved yellow for the walls. She got bunny wallpaper for around the tops of the walls. I let Jane pick out almost everything; I could tell she was enjoying herself. All I want is to make her happy. I still can't believe that I'm going to have a family with the most amazing girl in the world. I really want to make this special which is exactly why I'm going to get started on the baby's room tomorrow. Jane and Tess are going to lunch tomorrow anyway; it would be the perfect surprise. I still need to come up with something big. I just don't know what yet.
I heard sudden footsteps walking across the floor. I realized that I had been standing in front of the mirror in the bathroom for almost ten minutes. Jane popped her head in the door, "are you okay?" she asked. "Yeah I'm fine, just thinking about how great this is going to be." I walked over to her and pulled her close. I stared deep into her eyes and then gently kissed her. When we parted lips, she rested her head gently against my chest. I hugged her tighter and we stood like this for quite a while. Then we decided to lay down on the couch and watch some t.v. It had been such a long day, we were in need of a break.
