While the rain continued pouring down outside, inside Lilly used her hands to help her navigate her way downstairs. Even in her own home, she still felt disoriented, which was understandable. Without being able to see, made things more complicated. Once downstairs, she slowly felt around; before finally reaching the kitchen.
" Hey," Scotty replied, as he went to kiss her; she backed up, " I do need to shave."
Lilly nodded," Come upstairs then, you should have done it yourself."
He chuckled, before following her upstairs and into her bathroom. After setting his razor and a can of shaving cream down on the counter, Scotty then turned on the water; wetting his face before applying the cream onto his face.
With her back now against the counter, his hand was in hers as he helped guide her, " So what was in that tray you brought with you?"
" Homemade food that my mom made, figured we would share it. She made so much," which to Lilly made her smile, " Anyways you'll look much better that that Scruffy Scotty Island Beard," she teased.
Once Lilly was done shaving him, Scotty then splashed his face before drying off the excess water; before she took it away. With one motion, he then pushed her up against the counter; his mouth now on hers.
Their bodies slowly rocking against each other, before Scotty's lips trailed downward. Lilly moaned softly, enjoying the pleasure he was creating. She felt his hot breath between her cleavage, her arousal heightened; remembering how he had once done that underneath the waterfall on the island.
Of course that only started out because of that kiss. Scotty somehow found her lips again, before hearing the sound of her stomach growling loudly," Guess I better make us both something to eat."
Although sex had to wait, Lilly was feeling quite hungry. However she was also tired, which was something that Scotty had sensed," We could have breakfast in bed. Figured you probably just want to relax today."
Tomorrow, Lilly was scheduled to have a sonogram and a regular checkup as well. Scotty wasn't taking any chances; after all that had happened to her back on the island. After he had gone downstairs to make them both breakfast, she climbed into bed still thinking about a something that had happened to her.
Lilly did trust Scotty, but was still too scared inside to tell anyone. Once she heard the sound of his voice again, she sat up; awaiting her breakfast. Much to her surprise he had gotten them both bagels;" Must have felt weird, ordering food."
" Yeah, at least you ain't sending me to pick berries, " which had her laughing," You did get a kick out me hunting boar," noticing that Lilly was shaking her head," Or was it the sauce that I put on it?'
She grinned," That was pretty damn good, don't know how you ever made it."
" Just threw together what I could find," Scotty replied,taking a bit out of his bagel," I could try to make it again, probably be good on ribs or a pork roast."
Being on this island, did teach them a lot; which made their relationship a lot stronger. As the two continued spending the day together, both felt nervous and worried about tomorrow. In fact, Scotty was going to do everything to get Lilly's sight restored. He owed it to her, especially after all they had been through together.
The rest of the day went smoothly, but the next morning Lilly's nerves were extremely high. Her heart was practically racing, while squeezing Scotty's hand. Their first stop was to her Ob/gyn's office for a sonogram, the second one was to her regular doctor; at Scotty's request for Lilly to have a full physical.
He wanted to be on the safe side, but for now the two were inside waiting to be seen. Of course, the two feared losing their baby. Once her name had been called, Scotty led her into of a room. Lilly's nervousness increased as soon as the sonogram started.
The sound of their baby's galloping heartbeat, was now heard as she listened. Inside, her heart broke not being able to see her own child's image on the screen. Deep down, Lilly felt saddened about not experiencing what Scotty saw; in fact she wanted to glance over at him, wanting to see the joy that was on his face.
Instead, she could only picture that in her mind. However it didn't easy her when the doctor informed them both that their baby was very healthy. Although, Scotty was happy about having a baby, knew what was going around inside of Lilly's mind; but didn't discuss it. This wasn't the place nor the time, but once they had left to go to the second appointed, he could see the tension building even faster now.
As Scotty pressed two fingers alongside her neck; he felt her quickening pulse," Breathe, Hey I'm here for you," squeezing her hand," Our baby is healthy, even have a photo from the sonogram."
" Not like I can see that," Lilly answered," Or even you," as tears began streaming down her cheek. Scotty gently wiped the tears away with his finger," I love you," bring her hand to his chest," Let's now head down and find out if we can get your sight back."
Lilly nodded softly," Then why have get a physical then?"
" I want to make sure, that whatever you had on the island is gone," he replied, still feeling as if he was somehow responsible for her blindness. As Scotty started up the engine, his nerves increased; not due to them having a baby but for the fear still present inside of him.
He needed to be ensure that his girl was healthy, but also knew that Lilly was afraid to tell Stillman about what happened on the island. Except for one thing, Scotty had no idea what the killer had done to her, just moments before he had given her the disease. He was about to find out the whole story soon, but for now remained both supportive and loving for Lilly.
