Chapter 14: The morning after.

It was morning when Sydney woke up, she had her hand in Vaughn's as he slept peacefully in chair next to her. She tried to sit up, realising the soreness of her abdomen and sank back down. She thought about waking Vaughn up but he looked so cute sleeping there. She carefully pulled her hand away from his and with both hands she rubbed the sleep from her eyes. She tried to reach her hair band that was laying on the bedside table but as she reached over she suddenly felt nauseous. Great she thought, here we go, morning sickness is kicking in! She suddenly hit another wave of nausea and wanted to be sick. Clamping her hand over her mouth she frantically looked around for something to throw up in. She thought about pressing the call button by her bed but then realised the nurse would be too late. She noticed a plant pot with no plants in it and grabbed it, continually throwing up into it. Her shaking body and her retching noise awoke Vaughn. He looked over at Sydney, blinking away his bleary eyes and then noticing the problem.

"Morning sickness" he said, almost to himself.

He took Sydney into his arms and rubbed circles on her back and she was sick some more.

"Let it out Syd. It's okay. It'll be over soon."

Sydney moaned as her stomach lurched making her abdomen hurt.

"Ow!" she cried between heaves.

"It's okay. I'm here. I'm not going away, honey."

Suddenly Sydney heaves stopped and she turned her head towards Vaughn.

"Are you finished?" he asked.

Sydney nodded and he placed a tender kiss on her forehead.

"Let me go and tell the nurse you've thrown up in a plant pot and she can clear this up."

Sydney laughed "Shame there wasn't any plants in it. I could have given them a water!"

Vaughn smiled and walked out of the room and found Nurse Demi and called her in.

"I heard what happened," she said grinning and taking the pot away from Sydney "I brought this plastic basin in, in case you feel sick again. I'll give you some anti-nausea medicine in your IV to counteract the sickness. How's the pain?"

Sydney smiled "Much better. My stomach hurt whilst I was being sick but I think I pulled it a little."

"That will happen. This stuff should stop you feeling sick." she replied, placing the medicine into the IV before writing the dosage down on Sydney's chart.

"Well that's me finished here. The doctors will be up later this morning as an emergency has come in. Is there anything I can get you?"

"Water would be nice" Sydney stated "And when can I eat…I mean I don't feel like that now…I have cravings for watermelon for some strange reason."

The Nurse smiled brightly "That's the pregnancy, dear. Everyone has cravings for some kind of food. Mine was cheese. Ummmm cheese. Anyway I'll get you some water. I'll talk to the Doctors about food. You won't be able to have solid food just yet but maybe later we'll give you some soup. Just relax okay."

Sydney nodded and smiled again, her dimples showing.

"Thank you" Vaughn said.

Vaughn was playing 'this little piggy' with Sydney's toes which she thought was so cute.

"When we have the baby I'm going to teach it that song and teach it how to ride a bike and kick a ball and play hockey!"

"If we have the baby" She reminded him, sadly

"Syd. You're going to have the baby I'm sure of it. Everything will turn out fine you'll see. Don't worry about it until it happens which I assure you it won't."

Sydney smiled and realised there was no point in worrying.

"Well I'm going to teach the baby some karate moves so it can kick you're a**!"

"The baby won't catch me!" Vaughn said.

"Oh yes it will" replied Sydney with a gleam in her eye

He placed a kiss on her forehead and then they both drew into a lingering kiss. Afterwards Vaughn worked kisses down Sydney's arms.

"This kiss is for you"

"This one is for the baby"

"This kiss is for you"
"This one is for the baby"

He repeated over and over again kissing her up and down her arms. She giggled like a little child who was having raspberries blown on their bare tummy. Being with Vaughn was so much fun. She knew that if she had the baby Vaughn would make a most wonderful Father.
