Cat was on the balcony of their home, taking in the breeze of the perfection of a summer day. She was 16 weeks along now and enjoying the pregnancy so far. She didn't have too many symptoms. Morning sickness wasn't too often as they thought it would be. She was tired, but that's alright. It wasn't like they went anywhere much. She had to pee every 30 minutes, but again, they didn't go places much. Since her baby bump was a few inches larger now, Beck was extra protective…if he wasn't already. Other than those, she didn't feel too much. Today, though, was different. She woke up at 6am…why?
Well, let's see…
Cat walked into the bedroom again and saw Beck still sound asleep, his face buried in the pillow and his arm draped over a pillow on her side. She knew he'd notice if she was out of his arms, so she put it there. She went over to his side and shook him a bit. "Beck?" When he didn't respond, she frowned. "Beck? Wake up." She said softly, shaking him a bit more. He just groaned. She rolled her eyes. She knew just the key to get him up. "Beck, my tummy hurts." She whined close to his ear.
Immediately, he shot awake and jumped out of bed. He looked in horror. "You're stomach hurts? Bad?" His heart was racing against his chest. "Why are you out of bed?"
Cat leaned against him and sighed. "I feel better now that you're up."
Beck caught his breath and was confused, but let it go. He wrapped his arms around her. "Are you sure you're alright?" He asked after kissing her head lovingly.
Cat nodded. "Mmhmm." She looked up. "Can we go to the grocery market?"
Beck raised his eyebrows. "Now?"
"Yes."
Beck looked to the clock. "Babe, it's 6 in the morning."
"So?" Cat asked in an upset tone. "Beck, I want to go to the market."
"Why?" Beck asked in confusion. "Can we go later? Like when it's actually a decent time to wake up?"
Cat pushed him away from her with a scowl. "If you won't go with me, FINE!" She snapped, grabbing a clean towel and going to the bathroom. "I'll go alone!" And then she slammed the door, locking it.
Next thing Beck heard was the shower running. Usually he'd take one with her, but at the moment, she was pissed at him…and he had no idea why. Obviously he wasn't going to let her go alone. Hell, he wouldn't even let her walk down the stairs, let alone drive anywhere. But really…what the heck? It's 6 in the morning and she wants to go shopping? Seriously? Beck ran his fingers through his hair and decided to just pick out his clothes for the day.
After the shower turned off and Cat did what she needed to do, she came out with her wet hair and her pink robe, glaring to her husband. He sighed. "I still have no clue of why you're ticked with me." He commented as he grabbed his own towel to take a shower, but kept his eyes on her. "Just lay down and relax."
Cat rolled her eyes and ignored him as she went to her walk in closet to find something to wear.
Beck clenched his fists, fighting the urge to hit the wall, and slammed the bathroom door shut. He didn't lock it, just in case Cat needed something.
Cat picked out her clothes and blow dried her hair, putting it in a pony tail. She made sure her pink loose fitting dress that went just above her knees was perfectly fine on her and then she grinned. Now how upset would her husband be if she did the one thing he warned her about? She giggled lightly as she put on her flip flops and then went to the staircase. She took one step at a time and when she was at the bottom, she decided to start breakfast. Might as well eat before they went shopping, right?
Beck came out of the bathroom, dressed and all. He sighed as he looked around. His heart raced. Where the hell was Cat? He raced out of the room and looked in the guest rooms and all, but nothing. He heard singing downstairs and pots and pans getting moved around like someone was cooking. He rubbed his lips together. Oh…no…she…didn't. He grabbed his own flip-flops and slipped them on while grabbing his wallet and car keys roughly before stomping downstairs. He went into the kitchen and threw his car keys and wallet on the counter with anger. "Are you trying to kill me? Do you want me to have a heart attack?" He asked, kind of losing control as she ignored him and continued to scramble the eggs. "I just want you safe and healthy, but you did the ONE thing that I worry about the MOST! Those stairs aren't exactly safe, Cat! They have no railing! If you-"
"Are you done yet?" She asked when she glanced to him, walking to the fridge to bring out the orange juice. "Set the table." She ordered.
Beck shook his head, but did what she said. "Can you do me a favor?" He asked, with his voice a little softer this time.
Cat looked to him.
"Don't…don't scare me like that." He said in a saddened tone. "Please. I don't know what I would do if you were hurt…again. I can't do it anymore."
Cat sighed and turned off the stove when the eggs were done. She walked up to him and wrapped her arms around his neck loosely and he put his hands on her waist. "I'm so sorry." She whispered. "I guess the mood swings are getting the best of me."
"Why do you want to go to the market this early in the morning?" Beck suddenly asked.
Cat smiled. "I'm craving cantaloupe." She said sweetly, giving him a peck on the lips before turning back to the food.
He rolled his head back in frustration.
And the mood swings and random cravings were here.
…
Beck turned the car off as Cat took her seatbelt off and opened the door. He gave her a look. "Whoa, whoa." She stopped and looked to him. He looked bewildered. "I've opened the freaking door for you since I received my license when I was freaking 16!" He snapped. "And for the first time ever, you are opening the door without me on the other side- what the heck is happening to the world?" He asked to no one.
Cat blinked and then rolled her eyes. "We're having a baby, that's what's happening." She bluntly said as she slammed the door shut after getting out. She sighed deeply. When was she becoming the voice of reason at times like this? Isn't Beck usually the calm and collected one?
Beck slammed his fist on the steering wheel before getting out and slamming his door shut. He went to the other side where Cat was already walking towards the street market. He put an arm around her waist and the other in his pocket. "Well, now that the whole world has stopped spinning for a second, let's get some cantaloupe." He said with a grin to make her feel better. It worked, considering the fact that she giggled and kissed his cheek, keeping her petite hands on her small, but swollen stomach. He smiled with pride. His life was wonderful…no matter how much is wife's cravings and mood swings were going to make him lose his sanity.
They walked through the market, enjoying the business of the place and the kind customer service as they stopped to look at the fruit and vegetables. One stand was selling jewelry, which of course, Cat had to stop and gawk at. Beck took out his wallet when she saw a few things she really wanted and they moved on. When they found the cantaloupe and melons, Cat squealed. "How many do you want, babe?" Beck asked, whipping out his wallet again.
"Just one, please!" She said with excitement. The woman behind the booth came out with a smile. "Hi! One, please!"
"Yes, ma'am." She said in her accent and a smile. "Oh, look at you!" She said, carefully patting Cat's baby bump. "Beautiful young mother!"
Cat gushed. "Thank you so much!" Beck handed the lady the money after she bagged a juicy, perfect cantaloupe, handing it to Cat, before Beck took it from her. Cat pouted. "I wanted to hold it."
"Not happening." Beck chuckled. "No beautiful, wonderful wife of mine will ever hold the bags. That is why I'm here."
Cat thought about it for a second and then smiled. "True." She and Beck shared a laugh and then said goodbye to the lady, walking down the street. After a few more minutes, Cat leaned again Beck. "Honey, I'm tired." She said.
Beck looked down to her and he saw that she really was, considering her eyes were heavy and she was getting pale. "Alright, love, let's get out of here and get you home." He said in a comforting voice, helping her back to the car. On the way home, Cat fell asleep against the headrest. Beck smiled. She looked adorable. Sure, she would get very weak and exhausted a few times during the day, but otherwise, she was a pure perfection of a pregnant woman. He couldn't believe she was his.
He sighed as he ran one hand through his wild hair. He was worried though. Cat was a tiny person, pregnant, and…he didn't know what to think. He was an overprotective husband, who has been with Cat since they were fourteen years old in high school. He just couldn't help, but never wanting to let her go. He was excited for this baby, yes, but…he wanted Cat safe and well more than anything else in the whole world. To wake up one day without her seemed like hell to him. He started to imagine it and it almost ran him off the road. He had to stop thinking like this. Or else HE would be the one getting them BOTH killed.
He carried her inside and walked up the stairs, carefully. He made a mental note to have someone come and build railings on it. Maybe then, he could let Cat walk down the stairs…probably not, but it was something to consider. "Beck." She mumbled as he laid her down on the bed. "Can you take a nap with me?" She asked in her cute, baby voice as Beck took out a nightgown for her to wear. "I want you to hold me." She said as he helped her sit up.
He kissed her head. "I wasn't planning on going anywhere, Cat." After helping her and taking his shirt off to rest with, he tucked under the covers with her, wrapping her in his protective arms. "I love you so much." He was waiting for a response, but didn't get one. "Cat?" He looked down at her, but she was already sound asleep on his bare chest. He chuckled lightly and laid his head comfortably on hers.
