Chapter 5
Heartbeat
Ana PoV
I start working last week after a long argue with Christian. He wants me to work only until 14 or 15 not until 17 or 18 as usual, he says that is not good for me to work that much and I agree but I am only 8 weeks pregnant, when the pregnancy starts to go far I will slow down that would be like in 4 months. But I'm not even start to show my baby bump so I'm okay, but I know Christian and I know that his overprotective will increase as long with my pregnancy and in some way I like that, it shows me that he cares about us.
Today is finally Wednesday 12 of October which means that today we will have our 8 weeks appointment. I am so excited! This will be the first time Christian will see Blip, the second one for me. I know he is excited about the scan too, this morning we both wake up before the alarm, it's a usual behavior for him but in my case it's really wear but it's the anxious that I feel for seen my baby.
This morning...
I wake up because I can't sleep anymore I am so anxious about our appointment with Dr. Greene I don't want to open my eyes and see what time it is, Christian is wrap around me as always and I can fell his breathing in my shoulder and I can tell he is awake, finally I open my eyes and talk to him.
"Christian?" I whisper so if he is sleeping he will not wake up.
"Yes baby I can't sleep" how does he read my mind?
"Why you can't sleep?" I ask him still with my back to his front.
"Because I am too excited to see our Little Blip" he puts one of his hands in my belly "I thought I will deal with the wait but now that the day comes I can't wait until 15 to go and see how my baby is. The rest of the appointments will be at first hour of the day I can't wait this much. I want to see him now! What about you? Did I wake you up?"
"No you didn't. I am too anxious and I can't sleep anymore." I turn around so now I'm facing him I wrap my arms around his neck. I lean forward and kiss him chastely. "Good morning handsome"
He kisses me again. "Good morning sweetheart" he starts to plant kisses in my face and neck. "It's only 5:30 and we don't have to get up until 7 so I'm thinking of something we could do to kill the time" he says between kisses.
"Hmm, ¿really?" I moan, oh my god what he does to me.
He smiles against my neck. "Yes really baby. I love you so much"
"I love you too"
Soon we are lost in each other.
The morning continue as every day, take a shower together, making love if we have time, getting dress, having breakfast and then go to work. Since I come back Christian leaves me first at SIP soon will be Grey publish, and then he goes to work. Sawyer and Wilson, my new security girl who name I don't know yet, always follow us in the other SUV while we go with Taylor. Christian already add one security for me but I know that when my belly starts to grow he will want to hire the entire army to go everywhere with me and we will have a big argument, but that will be in a couple of moths I hope.
My mornings at work are the same Hannah brings my tea since I can't tolerate the smell of the coffee or latte, meetings, reading some manuscripts, messages, calls or emails from Christian making sure I eat, it's nearly lunch time so I think I will be receiving a phone call or email from him soon.
Christian PoV
I almost don't sleep last night because I'm so anxious. I spend most of the night thinking what will happen today on our appointment, I touch her belly wondering if it star to grow or when it will start I can't wait to see her barefoot, pregnant and in the kitchen. She wakes up around 5:30 because of her anxious too, so we have a wonderful early morning and thankfully today she hasn't got any morning sickness.
Today Ana and I have our appointment with Dr. Greene I can't wait to see my baby I'm so excited. I have read a lot about babies and pregnancy, yesterday arrived a box with books that I order in the internet, some for me and some for Ana.
This will be the first time I will see my baby Ana already see him and I see the picture but I know that seen him on the screen will be different I also read that we will be able to hear the heartbeat.
Ana told me that when she find out that she was pregnant Dr. Greene made her a transvaginal scan I read that is the best way of confirm a pregnancy so I'm sure that this scan will be superficial, across her belly. I made a list of questions to ask the Dr, I know Ana think that I over react but like I told her that I don't know nothing so I need to know and besides de information from internet and books I need to hear the Dr. I need to have all the control I can, I can't let anything happen to Ana and my baby.
The morning pass so slowly but thankfully it's almost lunch time I'm sure Ana will be waiting hear from me as every day since she go back to work which I not agree but she is so stubborn and I know I can't win with her about working but it will drive crazy when she start to show her baby bump, I know we will have a lot of arguments about this, she doesn't understand that it's not only her anymore. If she doesn't start to realize this I will have to hire an army of security or tied her up in the apartment or the house which will be finish by that time. So as I am so anxious to see my baby I will clean my schedule for the afternoon and I will surprise Ana and take her to lunch and then wait with her until we have the appointment.
I pick up my phone and call Andrea, thirty seconds later she is in my office.
"Andrea cleans my agenda for the afternoon I will go to SIP and then go home, if you need anything contact me after 16 or send me an Email but I'm sure Ros could handle everything and please tell Taylor to get the car ready while I grab my things and make a call."
"Alright Mr. Grey, ¿anything else?"
"No, that's all. Thank you Andrea"
She nods and leaves my office.
I call Hannah and tell her that entertain Ana until I arrive there so she doesn't go out to have lunch, clean her agenda for the afternoon but doesn't tell her anything.
I arrive at SIP and greet some annoying people who since they know I'm the new owner they act more friendly. When I exit the elevator in her floor I see Sawyer and Wilson her new security. I nod at him and knock the door of Ana's office.
I look at her and she is reading.
"Hello beautiful do you have time for your husband?"
She smiles, she is so gorgeous!
"Hello handsome. Of course I always have time for you"
I make my way to her desk next to where she is sit and leans down to kiss her.
When we break our kiss I look into her beautiful eyes.
"I have miss you baby"
"I miss you too, why are you here? Is everything okay?"
"Yes, it's just that I miss you and I'm so anxious so I clean my schedule and yours and we will be going to have lunch and then we can do whatever you like and then go to our appointment with the doctor after that we can do whatever you like again. What do you think?" I am sitting in the corner of her desk.
"Hmm I think that's an amazing plan. I'm so excited about the scan that I can't concentrate in work. When are we going to have lunch? I am hungry. " I grin at her.
"Wonderful! We are leaving now."
She put all her thinks in her purse and then grab her coat I help her and then I take her hand.
"Give me your purse I will take it for you"
"No, it's okay. I can take it."
"I don't want you to carry heavy things and you have a lot of rubbish in there so please give it to me"
"I'm not going to win this right?" I shake my head. "Okay, here there you go"
"Thank you!" I give her a kiss in the forehead. She leans up and kisses me.
"I love you" she whispers against my lips.
"I love you too, let's go."
We exit her office and go to the elevator, in our way there everybody greet Ana, and they all love her. She is so sweat, generous, friendly. I am so lucky to have her in my life and that she will be the mother of my child's. Yes I say children! I am not sure if I want to have a lot of child's but I know Ana is an only child and she doesn't want that for our baby on the other hand I do have siblings and I have a great relationship with my brother and sister so I think that I would like that my child's experience that.
"What do you like to have for lunch?" I ask her while we are in the elevator on our way down.
"I don't know maybe something with chicken and French fries if that's okay with you?" she tells me with her puppy eyes and beautiful pleading face.
"Of course honey, anything for you" I kiss the top of her nose. "Do you want to go to eat to a restaurant do you want us to pick up the food and go eat somewhere else?"
"Like a park or something like that?" her face lights up.
"I don't know if something that public but yes." I think that I know the perfect place. "Maybe we could go to the house and eat in the backyard while they are in lunch break, we eat there. What do you think about that?"
"I think that is perfect"
Before we enter in the SUV Ana grab my face between her hands and look me in the eyes.
"Who would think that you could be so careful, considerate, loving and will be carrying my purse" she giggles at the last part. She rises up and kisses me.
"Anything for you, you know that. I love you"
As I promise we buy some chicken nuggets and French fries, go to the apartment and pick up some blankets then we go to the house. I already send a message to Elliot to let him know that we are going to have lunch in the backyard just in case that they are working there or have anything there.
When we finish our lunch we lay there looking the clouds. We talk about our work, how the house is going, how thankful we are that Elliot doesn't ask why we are having lunch here or why we will not going back to work today. In the middle of the talk she tell me that want ice cream, what she wants she have.
We buy some ice cream and then go to Escala, we watch TV while we eat our ice cream I'm not paying attention to the TV because I'm more concentrating thinking that in less than an hour we have to go.
Finally its 14:30 and we are already in our way the hospital. I take Ana's hand and squeezes, and then start to rub her knuckles with my thumb.
"Are you nervous baby?" Ana ask me, she knows me too well.
"Yes a little but I think that most of all I'm anxious. What about you?"
"I feel the same. The wait will be over soon."
"Yes, thankfully" I kiss her hand.
Finally we arrived at the hospital and the nurse tells us to wait and Dr. Greene will be with us soon.
Minutes later Dr. Greene calls us and we enter in her office.
"Mr. and Mrs. Grey what a pleasure to see you both again. How have you been? " she says with a smile.
"Hi Dr. Greene, please tell me Ana I'm only 22 years old! We are all good besides the morning sickness." I don't know why Ana insist that everyone call her Ana but I know that it make her feel old, but it also say that she is mine. Yes very possessive of me and I don't care!
"Hello Dr. Greene good to see you too" I say polite.
After a little talk and my questions answered she tells us if we are ready to see our baby.
"Of course I'm ready; I have waited for this all day" I say more anxious than ever.
"Okay then; let's move to the table where you are going to lay down and put your top up and I'm going to put you some gel and then we are going to see your baby."
Ana do as she is told for once and I'm next to her holding her hand. As the doctor presses a couple of buttons and completes some information, I lean down and kiss Ana in the lips.
"I love you" I whisper against her lips.
"I love you too" she replies.
"Okay ready?"
We both nod in union. She starts to rub the scanner in Ana's belly, and then freeze the image.
"There is your healthy baby" she points to the screen and tell us what we see. "Your baby now has his/ her nose, finger, limbs, and the start of the ears, eyes and mouth. He or she is the size of a grape and his/her weight is just a few grams. Now we will hear the heartbeat." I am amused of what I see it's not to difference from a jelly bean but somehow it's the most amazing thing or I should say person I have ever seen besides Ana of course!
Then I hear something that continues to make me feel amuse the baby's heartbeat this sound with Ana's giggle is the most beautiful sound in the world. I have no words to describe what I fell now. I look at Ana and she is looking at the screen with a smile and tears running down her cheek. I lean down and kiss her tears.
"I love you so much Ana! Thank you"
"It took the two of us make him. Thanks to you too, I love you much more!"
"Do you want some images?" I think for a moment…
"Yes we want 11 copies please"
"Okay I will be right back, Ana you can clean yourself and I will see you in my desk again to agree the next date. Here you go" she hand Ana a tissue so she can clean her belly.
I help her sit and then I stand between her legs.
"I love you so much Anastasia Grey. She is beautiful like her mommy" I give her a chastely kiss.
"¿She? How do you know it's a girl?" she frown at me.
"Because she is already beautiful just like you!" I kiss the top of her nose.
"I would say that he is as handsome as his father, I know he is a boy"
I grin and kiss her very passionate this time. As I try to deepen the kiss and run my hand up her thigh, she pulls apart.
"Christian we are in the office of Dr. Greene" I smile at her.
"How do you think we create this beautiful baby? She obviously know we have sex Ana, don't be naïve"
"I know she knows Christian I'm not stupid but it doesn't mean that we can do this here"
"Okay let's go to talk with the doctor so we can finish this at home"
We go to the doctor's desk and she is waiting for us.
"Okay so here are your prints. I would like to see you in four weeks for the next appointment which will be Monday 14 of November if that okay with you, you could choose the time in the morning or in the afternoon"
"¡Definitely in the morning! The first appointment of the day" I say not wanting to go through what we pass today.
"Okay so that would be Monday 14 of November at 9:30 in the morning. Is that okay?"
"Yes, perfect thank you" Ana answer she.
"When we will be able to know the sex of the baby?" I ask remembering my though to Ana a couple of minutes before.
"Well maybe in the next appointment but to be 100% sure around the 20 weeks appointment."
"Okay thank you" I say not wanting to wait two more months.
"Okay so if everything continues this well I will see you in 4 weeks"
"Yes, thank you so much Dr. Greene see you soon have a great day" Ana says as sweet as she is.
"Goodbye Dr. Greene see you next time"
We go out the office and Sawyer is waiting for us in the waiting room, he calls Taylor to let him know that we are on our way there.
"Why do you ask for 11 copies of the scan?" Ana ask me as we are in the back seat of the SUV with Taylor and Sawyer.
"Because when we give the present with the notice of the pregnancy we will give them both copies this one and the other and then there is one for, for you, one to put in the fridge and then I have an idea for the last one."
"Hmm and what would be that idea Mr. Grey?"
"The idea consists on make a collage with all the scans of blip and then photos of you every week or day so we can see the improvement of the pregnancy and your baby bump."
"Oh my god, that's a wonderful an idea Christian! You are so sweet."
We arrive home and ask Ana to take one of the prints so I can put it on the fridge and show it to Gail who is more than grateful. She says that it will be great cooking with the picture of baby Grey there.
Ana is hungry so she asks Gail to give her a slice of the cake they made yesterday. I don't like Ana helping Gail cooking but I know she love cooking and I can't denied her to do what she loves so I leave her and I will have to adapt to that. She asks Gail to call her Ana too and I know that soon she will want them to call me Christian but I'm not sure about that.
After Ana eats her cake and drink tea while I eat cake too and drink coffee we go to our bedroom and make love two times then we take a nap since Ana is too tired. We have dinner and then have a shower after that we have another round of making love and then fall asleep before fall asleep I lean down and kiss her belly.
"Good night Little Blip I love you so much it was great to see you and heard you today you are beautiful" I kiss her belly a few times more and then kiss her forehead and whisper "I love you so much, good night sleep well" I take my place behind her with our legs weave together and one hand under Ana's head and the other across her belly where Blip is growing. Obviosly the most amazing part was heard the heartbeat of Blip.
I will not end the story soon; I don't know what happen to me I was a little confused. I will continue writing. I hope you like this chapter. See you in a couple of days. Sorry for the spelling mistakes.
Cami.
