Chapter 6: Musings and Romance

Sarah sighed as she filled out the address forms for the graduation invitations. She and Matt had ordered their invitations and now were getting a professional calligrapher to do the addresses. Sarah and Matt had both figured it would save time and it was also more professional looking. She was stuck filling out the address forms since Matt was working so many hours at the hospital.

As Sarah looked at the calendar on the wall, she realized that the last two months had flown fly. The hard work at the hospital and the surprise pregnancy had filled the last two months to the point of exhaustion.It still surprised her that she had no idea how much her life would change in a little over a year. In September she and Matt would become new parents.

Parents. The word still caused her to shudder. At the same time, twins shocked her more. It amazed her more than she could admit that she was carrying twins. She smiled as she felt movement. The twins were becoming more active, but were not at the stage that Matt could feel them kick.

Meanwhile, Matt sighed as he walked around the hospital. It was getting monotone, but at the same time exciting. Since he was now doing his concentration, he was always surrounded by life.

The only thing that frustrated him was that he saw people calling thier parents to inform them of the pregnancy news or birth fo the son or daughter.It reminded him that every single day he walked around with the biggest news to tell his parents. He was justglad that his parents didn't call him that often now. It often made it easier for him to not tell his parents the surprising news.

After the conversation with Rose (Invitation to Disaster)

Sarah shook her head after hanging up with Rose. Matt had told her that his Simon's fiancée was impossible but she wasn't expecting that impossible.

Sarah sighed. She picked up the phone and dialed the familiar numbers. After three rings, Matt picked up.

"Hey. You got a few minutes?" Sarah asked.

"Yeah. Everything okay?" Matt asked slightly concerned. Sarah assured him that it was and then quickly recounted her conversation with Rose.

Matt laughed and said, "Knowing my parents they will figure out a way to use this to their advantage. They've been trying to break them up since they announced they were engaged."

Sarah laughed and said, "Hasn't your dad been doing that with everyone?" She smiled as she remembered their premarital counseling with Eric. The first session had led the two of them to get into a major fight over her engagement ring. She spun her engagement ring around pensively as she thought about it.

"Well, yeah. He didn't succeed with us though. I mean, we were already married," Matt stuttered. His mind wandered back to when his dad wastrying to figure out whether or not they were married. Hehad been impossible to deal with, but something had changed his mind.

"Well, hopefully they will come. I mean, that's when we're going tell your parents our news," Sarah whispered as she tenderly placed her hand on her growing stomach.

"I know. Listen, I've got to run. My pager just went off. I love you and I'll see you later tonight," Matt said and then hung up the phone.

Later that night

Matt opened the door to their apartment. After pulling an eleven-hour shift, he was ready to come home and crash. The only thing that stopped him from heading straight to the bed was that he was also starving. As he opened the door,he looked aroudn the apartment in shock. There was candles lit everywhere. Soft music was playing from the cd player.

"Sarah, what's going on?" Matt asked, searching for his wife.

Sarah walked out of the bathroom wearing a stunning black dress. It hugged her curves and gently hugged her growing stomach. The best part in Matt's mind was the fact that it stopped at her knees. It showed off one of his favorite features- her long legs.

"I just wanted to let the father of my children know how much I love him," Sarah whispered as she walked up to him. She wrapped her arms around his neck and laid a passionate kiss on his lips.

The two gently pulled apart. The two enjoyed the pasta dinner- Matt took advantage of the oppurtunity and spoon fed his wife. Sarah informed him that Rose had called and changed the date to the friday before thier graduation.

As the night went on, the two continued to romance and woo each other. Since Matt was slightly sore from four straight days at the hospital, Sarah gently rubbed and massaged him. After she finished, Matt returned the favor- taking special care around her chest and stomach. The two headed to their bed and made love, slow and careful.
