Time went fast and they reached the end of March already. Maria was now six months pregnant and really started to show. She had an appointment with the doctor and Georg decided to join her, which took Maria a bit by surprise but she really appreciate the thought. They walked hand in hand through the streets of New York.

"What?" Georg asked her when she heard his wife try to suppress a giggle.

"Oh it's nothing, just that it was funny how uncomfortable you were when the doctor examined me" She said looking at him sweetly

"Oh darling come on, i wasn't uncomfortable" He said his face turning slightly red

Maria squeezed his hand and looked at him reassuringly. "No need to worry darling, I'm sure you were just as anxious as i to know if the baby was ok, to be honest i was kind of nervous myself" she confessed looking up at him.

he squeezed her hand a bit tighter as they continued their walk.

When they reached the parking lot Maria stopped and turned around to face him. "Thank you," She reached up and gave a soft kiss "for coming with me today"

"Everything for you my love" He gave her a soft kiss when he said "now I really can't wait till the baby is due, this belly is starting to get in the way" He said rubbing over her belly. They both laughed at Georg's statement.

"Come, I want to show you something" He said as he opened the car door and helped her in.

"Where are we going?" Maria asked when she noticed this wasn't the way home. "You'll see" Was his only reply


They were now driving for about an hour. In the meantime Maria had dozed off to a peaceful slumber. Georg couldn't help but smile as he looked to his side to see his wife sleeping with her head against the window and her arms draped over her stomach. The bright sunlight made her soft blond hair almost look like gold.

The morning sun peered through the heavy curtains of their hotel room leaving just enough light to see the two figures tangled in a loving embrace covered by nothing but thin white sheets. Georg slowly moved his hand through Marias short soft locks.

"Is there something funny about my hair darling?" Maria asked when he heard him laugh softly

"No I eh, was just wondering why you cut it short?" "Oh so you don't like it then?" Maria teased looking up at him.

"No, on the contrary I like your hair, I was just wondering" He said giving her a sheepish grin

"Well if you must know, Sister Berthe cut it because I used to wear curlers under my wimple" She said he cheeks turning a light shade of pink at her confession. "I guess they thought I was to vain to enter the convent"

"Darling there's nothing wrong with being proud about how you look, especially not with those looks" He said as he moved his hands down her body to rest on her hips which made Maria shudder.

"I also used to hide a small mirror in my drawer underneath my bible" She made a second confession

"Oh really fräulein?" He gave her a teasing look "Well I at least had to look how awful my hair looked" she replied

"now don't say that, I love your hair just the way it is" Georg said as they were soon caught up in passionate kisses again

Maria slowly opened her eyes as she stifled a yawn. When she looked up she saw her husband focused on the road. Oh how handsome he looked, the sun shining on his slightly tanned skin, his tie loosened around his neck looking thoughtful at the road. Maria looked out the window and looked out to an unfamiliar scenery. They drove on this beautiful countryside with lots of trees and grass fields that seemed miles long, she even thought she saw small hills further back. Now Maria was really curious where Georg was taking her.

"we're almost there" he said to Maria when he saw she had woken "and no, i'm not saying anything" he said when a teasing smile formed on his lips.


They drove up to a small sandy road. He parked his car on the side of the road and helped Maria out of the car.

"walk with me" he said as he held out his hand. Maria took his hand as they walked the small road. Maria still had no qlue and her surroudnings didn't really help becouse the road was pretty much surrounded by trees. They walked in silence just enjoying eachothers company. Soon it became more clear where they were going when maria saw a grean and open clearing at the end of the road.


"Oh Georg!" She exclaimed as she took in the surroundings. They stood in a huge field full of flowers and a small brook, and if you lookef further you could see small hills.

"well, they're not a big as the mountains in Austria" he said awkwardly scratching the back of his head "I knew you missed them"

"yes i did" she said thinking back of Austria "well come on!" she said as he took his hand and they walked up the hill. On top of the smaller hill they stopped. you had a lovely view of the flowers and the little brook and you could see even bigger hills behind them. Georg laid out a small blanket And set out a picnic. Maria took a deep breath as she looked around. then she slowly took off her shoes and let her swollen pregnancy feet touch the soft cool grass. the blew through her hair as she softly sang "the hills are alive..." she slowly started walking as she continued singing. Georg loved his wife's soft and warm voice. When he heard her sing he could just forget about everything. He laid his head on the soft grass as he listened to Maria's soft singing.

With lots of effort Maria tried to sit down on the blanket. when Georg saw her struggling he stood up to help her sit down. Finally seated Georg laid down again as maria laid her head on his chest. She put his hand over her belly when she felt the first movement of their unborn child.

"Do you feel it?" She asked as she sighed with contentment. "Doesn't it feel wonderful?" "It feels so-" She was cut off by the thought of their seven children. 'He must have gone through this enough times' Maria thought 'he probably doesn't want to hear it'

She stopped talking and kept quiet. Georg noticed her sudden quietness, he rubbed over her belly and asked "Darling, why did you stop talking?" As she looked up at him he gave her an encouraging smile.

"Oh well... You have had this conversation about 7 times and... I eh... I don't want to bore you..." She said shyly.

"Darling you couldn't possibly bore me, you fascinate me, you make me want to know more about everything you talk about" he said stroking her soft golden blonde hair "and yes i have done this seven times, but it still seems to make my heart grow more and more"

"And i plan to have this conversation many more times" He put his hands over hers on her belly. They just laid there looking at the clouds, laughing, talking. The perfect moment between husband and wife.
