CHAPTER 11
Ethan looked at his watch and saw that it was 5 o'clock; he took the opportunity to get dinner started. He went to the fridge and pulled out the chicken and a bag of broccoli. Reaching under the cabinet, he took out a pot and placed it on the stove, then grabbed another pan and lined it with foil. He added come seasoning to the chicken, put it in the pan and popped it in the stove. Finally, he filled the pot halfway and added the broccoli. Once the food was finished, he spooned some onto both their plates then ran upstairs to wake Danny; she was awake when he entered the room.
"Hi love. How long was I out?"
"I'd say a solid two hours," Ethan told her. He walked over and flipped back the covers before sitting on the bed.
"Come on bae, I made dinner."
"You cooked," Danny said sounding surprised. She stood up and took Ethan's hand as he led her downstairs.
When they were finished, Danny collected the dishes and washed them up. She wiped off the table, wrung out the rag and placed it on the counter. She looked for Ethan in the living room, but didn't see him; 'he must've gone upstairs,' she thought. Clicking off the lights, Danny went upstairs and walked into the nursery. She smiled at the sight in front of her; they were so grateful for their friends. She entered the bedroom and saw Ethan sitting at the computer.
"Whatcha doing babe?"
Ethan was staring at the computer screen; he looked deep in thought. "I'm just looking up some stuff about pregnancies."
Danny looked at her husband. "Are you really that nervous Eth?"
"Yes, I'm terrified. You heard what Deaton said."
Danny let out a tired sigh. "Of course I heard what he said, and frankly, it's scares me too; but Ethan, you gotta think positive." "It'll really help things run a lot smoother if you did." "Can you do that for me?"
Ethan walked over to Danny and slid his hands around her waist. "Yes, I can definitely do that for you," he said. They smiled and kissed each other, anxious to meet their little bundle of joy.
