First Doctor's Appointment
Adam's POV
Julie and I got up early this morning. It has been a month since Connie became pregnant with mine and Julie's child, and today she is going in for her first doctor's appointment. Connie had invited us to go along because she was sure that they were going to perform an ultrasound on her and Julie and I may get a first look at our baby.
"So," I asked as I hugged Julie while she brushed her long hair. "Are you ready to see our baby?"
"Adam, I doubt that it looks anything like a baby right now." She told me and I rolled my eyes at her. Thank God she wasn't looking at me.
"I don't care if it looks like a baby yet or not. I just want to see it. We've waited so long and I'm just impatient." I smiled at her and she smiled back. "I want to know what he or she looks like at every part of his or her life."
"I know what you mean. I was only warning you." Julie smiled wider at me and I couldn't help myself. I tickled her sides and she started giggling. Before I knew what was happening, I was being pulled towards the bed.
Connie's POV
Today is my first doctor's appointment and I can't help but be nervous. What if something were to go wrong with the baby? Julie and Adam would be crushed.
I leaned my head on Guy's shoulder as he watched Sportscenter's top ten plays of the day. Guy had scored the game winning goal against the Minnesota Wild last night with 2 seconds left to go in the game. Sure enough, Guy was the top play of the day. "Guy," I asked.
"Hmm." He turned to look at me. "What is it baby?"
"I'm scared about this pregnancy." I admitted to him.
"Then why did you agree to it, if you are afraid something might happen to you?"
"I'm not afraid something will happen to me. I'm afraid something might happen to the baby." I told him as I let a tear fall down my cheeks. "Julie and Adam have been through so much already. I don't think they could take much more. I want them to be happy."
"I want them to be happy too," Guy told me as he pulled me into a hug. "Everything is going to go fine. Your first pregnancy went great and if the doctors didn't think you could get through this, they never would have let you do this. And if you are thinking that Julie and Adam would hate you if anything happened to the baby, then you are dead wrong. They are so thankful for you and what you are doing for them. They could never hate you."
"I guess," I replied back. I didn't want to admit it, but I felt a little better after Guy's words. He made some valid points. But still, it was so much easier to be scared then to be confident that everything would go okay. "We should probably get going or we are going to be late. I mean, we do have to pick up Julie and Adam."
Guy's POV
Connie and I headed out the door and headed over to Julie and Adam's apartment. They are yet to move into their house because there were a few repairs, such as a leaky rood, that needed to be fixed before they could move in. They expected that they would be moving there in three weeks, at which time the Ducks will be coming up to help them move and fix the house the way they want it. Connie and I figured that would be the perfect time to tell them what we were doing for Julie and Adam.
We arrived outside their apartment and we both headed inside. We rang the door bell and when no one appeared I thought that maybe they had already left in their own car. However, Connie reminded me that both of their cars were in the parking lot. I hit the door bell a couple more times and when I still didn't get an answer, I decided to go on in.
Connie and I walked inside and there was no one in the living room. I could hear the faint sounds of furniture hitting up against the wall. I slowly crept to the bedroom door and grabbed the knob. I turned it slowly and the door creaked open. I was surprised to see Julie and Adam making out as they quickly dressed each other. Adam had lipstick all over his face and Julie's hair was sticking up all over the place. They turned to look at me and instantly turned red. "What are you guys doing here?" Adam asked as he took control of buttoning his own shirt.
"The doctor's appointment." Connie reminded them with her hand on her hip. "You do remember that, don't you?"
"Of course we do," Julie said as she straightened her clothes out. "We were just getting ready."
I couldn't help but suppress a laugh. "For the first time?" I asked raising an eyebrow.
Julie's face became even redder. It was just like old times. She placed her face in her hands. "No," I heard her say.
"We'll be ready to go in a minute." Adam saved her. Connie and I headed into the living room and sat on the sofa until they were ready to go.
Julie's POV
After the incident with Connie and Guy, Adam and I quickly got ready once more. We headed into the living room and the four of us got on our way. Connie and Guy smiled at us the entire ride to the Doctor's office, and I continued to blush over the situation.
We walked into the doctor's office and Connie signed in as Adam, Guy and I found a place to sit. Connie joined us and just as we started into a conversation, Connie was called back. We were led back to the exam room.
"Could you step up on the scales please?" the nurse asked Connie and she did as she was asked.
"Just don't tell me how much I weigh." Connie told he as the nurse wrote the number down on Connie's chart, before taking her blood pressure.
Just as the nurse was leaving the room, Dr. Smith walked in. "Good morning Connie. How are you feeling today?"
"Fine thanks." Connie replied and Dr. Smith looked over towards Adam and I.
"And how are things going for the two of you?" she asked looking at me. I could feel my face turn red once more as I thought back to the mornings events. Somehow it felt like she knew. I prayed that she did not notice. Unfortunately for me, she did. "Julie are you alright, you're all red."
"Julie's fine. We just had an interesting incident this morning with her and Adam." Guy stated and Connie hit him in the arm. "Oww!"
"Are we going to do an ultrasound today?" Connie asked changing the subject and I sent her a silent thank you."
"As a matter of a fact we are. And if you would like to put this gown on we can go ahead and get started." Dr. Smith said.
We were pushed into the hallway until Connie changed and then we were allowed to go back in. The ultrasound started and Adam and I finally got our first look at our baby.
"Where is it?" Adam asked.
I pointed to the screen. "It's right there Adam."
Adam smiled as he saw the baby. It wasn't until that moment that it finally dawned on me that I was going to be a mother.
Please review and tell me what you think!
