It was Friday Night and Nicky and Lorna were deciding what type of food to order.

"We could always just get a pizza"

"Ew no. I'm not in the mood for all that cheese my stomach's been bothering me today."

"Okay, how about chinese?"

"yuck"

"pasta?"

Lorna looked disgusted at the thought of pasta.

"Okay, baby, this might go a little faster if you just tell me what you want to eat."

"I don't know. I can't tell what I want."

Lorna thought about it for a minute.

"I feel like I kind of want soup or something? Yes! That's it! I'm so in the mood for chicken noodle soup from that café place we go to!"

"Okay, chicken noodle soup it is then. I'll pick up an actual dinner along with it, okay? Cause that shit is not gonna fill you up while you're pregnant"

So Nicky left to go get dinner for the two of them.

When she returned Lorna was making mac and cheese.

"I thought you wanted soup? Doesn't your stomach feel too weird for something so cheesy?"

"I know that's what I thought, but all of a sudden I just really wanted mac and cheese"

"Okay well chicken noodle soup and mac and cheese is kinda a weird combo but what the hell, right? You ate prison food for 3 years, your stomach has been through worse."

""Yeah, Nick, I don't think really want the soup anymore. I'm sorry I shouldn't have made you go out and get it"

Nicky just shrugged and said "Don't worry about it! More for me then!"


The next day Nicky was making lunch. Lorna entered the room and started gagging at the sight of the turkey sandwich Nicky was currently making.

"Doesn't look too appetizing, huh?"

"Ugh all the meat is making me feel queasy" Lorna said as she ran out of the room towards the bathroom.

A few hours later…

"Hey, Nick, do we have any more of the turkey you had for lunch?"

"No I threw the rest of it out cause it made you feel sick."

"Aw okay."

"What?"

"Nothing I just kinda wanted a turkey sandwich now."

"Seriously? The sight of it made you puke just a few hours ago."

"Yeah, but now it sounds so good!"

"Okay, I'll be right back."

"No, Nick, don't go out to the store now. That's ridiculous. I can just eat what we have."

"Babe, the store is so close. You should be able to eat what you want. I'll be back soon."

Nicky gave her a quick peck before she left to go buy more turkey.


A couple of days they were out to dinner with Alex and Piper.

"Ohh let's get dessert guys! I've been craving sweets so bad lately."

"You have? I didn't know that. You should've told me I would've gone to get you something."

"Aww that's okay, it wasn't a big deal. We can just get it now!"

So the four of them had dessert before leaving.

"Was that good, Lorna?" Piper asked

"Oh yeah. That was so good! You know what really sounds good though are those strawberry pop tart things I used to eat as a kid. I think I'll go get a box of them tomorrow after work."

"I can get you those now, kid." Nicky offered

"No, no don't. I can just go tomorrow. I'm not even hungry right now."

"That's okay. I'll go get them anyway. That way you don't have to go tomorrow."

"No, Nick. I'm not letting you go out and pick up food for me anymore. It's very nice of you, but my cravings are insane. I can't even promise I'm still gonna want the food by the time you get back"

"Yeah, well you're pregnant. You're allowed to be a little picky."

"Nick, just cause I'm pregnant doesn't mean that you have to wait on me hand and foot. I feel too bad letting you do that."

"Don't feel bad. I wanna do it."


The next day, Nicky came home with a ridiculous amount of groceries.

"Holy shit, Nick, did you buy out the whole store."

"I got you everything I think you could possibly ever be craving. At least for the next couple weeks or so."

Lorna looked through the bags. She saw pop tarts, cookies, ice cream, chips, a bunch of different soups, kraft macaroni and cheese, pickles, frozen pizzas, bananas, apples, oranges, peanut butter, cold cuts, pasta, rice, potatoes, cereal, eggs, and really pretty much every other type of food she's ever eaten.

"Nicky this is ridiculous!"

"No it's not. I want you to be able to eat exactly what you want when you want it. You're clearly not telling me every time you have a craving because you feel bad making me go out. So, the only way I can be sure you have all of the food you want is to just make it all available at once."

"Why are you the sweetest person ever?" Lorna asked as she gave Nicky a big kiss.

She took one more look at the groceries and immediately started laughing.

"What's so funny?"

"I'm just picturing you going down every aisle of the store and grabbing one of everything. People must have thought you were insane!" she laughed as she leaned in to give Nicky another kiss. "Thank you that was really sweet of you."

That night, the two of them sat by the TV watching Game of Thrones, each with their own cartown of ice cream and box of cookies.
