A/N: Thanks for the reviews. I decided to have that little bit of drama in the last chapter because I felt like it. Enjoy!

"Babe, I'm home!"

Gil walked into the house, tossed his keys on the table by the door and strode into the living room.

A smile spread on his face as he saw Sara; She was lying on the couch on her right side, facing the door. Her chestnut hair had fallen in her face, sticking to her cheek.

He briefly considered not waking her, just letting her get the rest she needed.

But he felt guilty; Guilty that he had gone to see Lady Heather and Sara hadn't known. Even though nothing had happened, he felt his wife deserved to know where he had been.

"Sara," Gil whispered. He gently shook her shoulder and after a moment of that, she groggily awoke.

"What?" She spotted the grocery bag and gasped. "Ooh, did you get vanilla mint ice cream for me? I saw a commercial for it earlier and it looked so damn good."

Gil couldn't help but smile; He had been prepared for her appetite this pregnancy. With a chuckle he pulled a container of ice cream from the bag he was holding in the crook of his left arm.

"Oh thank you, thank you, thank you!" She giggled happily. After a long sigh, she remembered to ask him another question. "Hey, where'd you go this afternoon? I can't recall what you told me."

Sara didn't mind at all whenever Gil left the house; As a matter of fact, she enjoyed it. That way she could eat whatever her cravings called for and not feel like a pig.

Gil joined Sara on the couch, being extra careful to avoid sitting on her feet.

"Sar, I… went out to see Lady Heather. We just had tea and talked. I swear, nothing happened," He quickly blurted.

He was afraid she would go insane, be completely pissed off that he had gone to see Lady Heather. Much to his surprise, she wasn't mad.

"Okay, cool. I've never met her; Is she nice?"

Sara stood up from the couch, ice cream tub still in hand; Gil watched as she placed one hand on her stomach for a moment, then walked out of the room.

He could hear her open a drawer and pull out a piece of silverware; The house usually wasn't that quiet.

"Aren't you going to answer me?"

"That was fast," He grinned and patted the seat next to him, just wanting to be near her. "Heather's very nice. She even offered to babysit for us sometime!"

Sara pulled the lid off of the container of ice cream and dug in; She moaned joyously as the cold treat hit her tongue. "Thank you so much, Gil," She mumbled.

He nodded as he wrapped his arm around her shoulder's; She rested her head on his arm, raising it only to get another bite of ice cream.

The two sat there, perfectly content just to be in the other's company, until they both eventually fell asleep/

The Next Morning

"Mommy! It's time for school!" Liz shouted from the kitchen.

"Mmm-hmm."

Sara brought her hand up to her face and rubbed at her eyes, trying to wake up.

"Oh shit," Gil mumbled from beside her.

More muttering followed as he tripped over several things lying on the floor and a giggle was heard from Liz.

Sara desperately tried to open her eyes and help get her daughter ready for school, but she was especially tired for some reason.

With her each of her index fingers, she was able to pull both of her eyes open; The bright sunlight immediately caused her let them close once again and after sitting up, she repeatedly blinked her eyes until the sunlight wasn't such a shock.

"Bye mom! See you after school!" Liz grinned as Sara leaned against the doorframe to the living room.

Gil gave his wife a quick kiss on the cheek then rushed out the door, leaving Sara to decide whether she wanted to go back to sleep or feed Lily.

"Lily! Come here girl! Come on," She shouted for the dog to come find her.

Obediently the blood hound sauntered out of the kitchen and sat at Sara's feet.

"Okay, let's go get some food."

The two walked back to the kitchen, Lily following Sara; Once they reached their destination, Sara saw that the dog already had fresh water and food.

"Well so much for that. Go eat," She told Lily.

A yawn escaped her lips followed by a sigh.

"Lil, I'm tired of being hungry all the time."

Lily continued eating her food, paying no attention to the woman seated at the table.

Sara stood up and walked to the fridge; After looking at all of her choices, she pulled out a small container of yogurt and strode back to the table to sit back down.

As soon as she was seated, the phone rang.

She mumbled under her breath as she stood up once again to answer it.

"Hello?"

"Sara it's Catherine. Is Gil coming in today?" The strawberry-blond asked.

"I don't know. His hours are so screwed up I can't keep track of them anymore. What's up with me not working lately?" Sara replied.

She titled her head back and held the spoon over her mouth; Slowly, she tipped it so the yogurt ran off the spoon into her mouth.

"Um, something to do with the budget," Catherine answered. "I don't know. Everything is messed up. I'll call you later."

Sara pulled the telephone away from her ear as the feedback screeched.

With an angry sigh she strolled over to the table and sat back down.

"Just you and me, Lily."

The dog barked once then ran off to find one of her toys, leaving Sara alone and bored.
