I woke up feeling a million times better than I did earlier, I rolled over and looked at the clock it was already eleven. I had slept through the morning.

"Eli." I whispered.

"Eli?" I turned over and saw an empty space next to me, he must have gotten up already.

I took a deep breath and got up, I was about to look for my clothes when I realized I hadn't brought anything with me. I decided it didn't really matter right now, I could go get clothes later. I went down stairs and saw Eli's mom in the kitchen, and his dad sitting on one of the bar stools. I couldn't find Eli anywhere. I sat down on the bar stool next to Eli's dad, I was extremely uncomfortable because I am sure he knows about me being pregnant by now.

I cleared my throat before starting "Um, where is Eli?"

His mom turned and smiled a warm smile "He went to your house to get your clothes and other necessities, he left an hour ago. He should be back anytime now."

"okay" I swear Eli always knows what I'm thinking. I found it very sweet that he didn't even wake me up or anything.

Eli's mom turned to me, and smiled while putting a sandwich in front of me "I hope your hungry"

"Thanks" I smiled back. I was starving.

She left the kitchen and went up stairs.

I was beginning to think Eli's dad was mad at me because he hadn't said anything but after a few minutes of quietly eating, he broke the silence.

"So, Clare." he said casually, but I could tell he was uncomfortable "how are you feeling?"

"I'm okay, besides the morning sickness this morning, I've felt fine."

"oh" he said quietly and the room fell silent again.

A few seconds later Eli walked in through the front door. I was beyond happy. It was starting to get extremely weird.

He had a few bags full of my clothes in his hands, he put them on the couch and walked over to me.

"good morning sunshine" he said as he wrapped his arms around me.

"morning? I slept it away" I laughed as I leaned my head against his chest, and he tightened his arms around me.

"Besides pregnant, how are you feeling?"

"Good. I don't even feel sick anymore. And your mom made me a sandwich." I was quiet for a few seconds. "crap! I have to make a doctors appointment."

"I already did, your appointment is at two."

I looked at the clock on the stove, it was only 11:40.

"Really? Thank you."

"Anytime." he said kissing my forehead.

"I'm just curious, did you make the appointment because your trying to be the better parent?" I teased.

He laughed "please, I don't have to prove anything. The moment our little bundle of joy sees me I will be labeled the favorite parent."

"Not to crush your ego or anything but I'm going to be the favorite parent."

He pulled back to look at me with a smirk "How do you know this?"

"I told you. I have motherly instincts."

He smiled "you know, I'm starting to think that your taking advantage of your motherly instincts"

I smiled back. "I'm going to take a shower and get dressed and stuff."

"okay" he said before leaning down and kissing my lips softly. I blushed because his dad was right there, and had turned abruptly when he saw Eli kiss me.

I went over to the bags of clothes and pulled out a yellow t-shirt that had been too big for me now it was going to fit perfectly, and a pair of stretchy gray pants.

I took a shower, changed into my clothes, and decided to just leave my hair to dry and go without makeup. I looked in the mirror. I had gained a little weight. You probably wouldn't notice it unless you were looking to see if I had.

I went downstairs, Eli was sitting on the couch next to his mom, and they were both looking at a magazine she had in her hands. It looked like a woman's one. Which I found odd, where was his comics?

I sat next to him "what are you guys reading?"

"It's a magazine about pregnancy, I was thinking you and I should go shopping, your going to need a new wardrobe soon." Eli's mom answered

"okay, that would be fun."

Eli still hadn't said anything he was just looking at the page with an expression between shocked and confused.

"what's wrong?" I asked putting my hand on his cheek.

His face instantly softened at my touch and he turned and smiled. "Nothing" he said gently laying his hand on my stomach. "the magazine says that at 12 weeks the baby is starting to open and close his fingers, his toes will curl, and if I touch your stomach the baby will squirm in response but we cant feel him do it yet."

I smiled and laid my hand on top of his "maybe you will be the favorite parent."

"told you so" he said still looking at my stomach "we should probably get going its already 12:45."

"okay"
