Okay, I feel like a horrible person because I feel so bad that I did not update soon. So here is the chapter to make up for it. Thank you for the story alerts and reviews... that was when I realized that I gotta get back on it. I feel like I am losing my touch though... Anyway, I have been working on my story for the tv show called the Torchwood. So if you love the show, please come visit my story called "I'm home" and leave the reviews. Thanks!

July 4, 2011: 16 weeks or (4 months along)

Today was the Fourth of July so Lindsay and Danny invited me to the beach for the BBQ dinner and to watch the fireworks.

I chose to wear a loose dress so it wouldn't show off my barely grown bump. I could still get away with the pregnancy that is not visible to strangers but I will have to explain to the people I know once I start showing.

"Hey Lindsay!" I announced my arrival and we hugged. Danny was building sandcastles with Lucy.

Lucy saw me and ran off to greet me. I picked her up and she hugged me.

"Ladybug! My girl!" I said to her and she did her usual giggle when I call her nickname. I put her down and she went back to play with Danny.

I was helping Lindsay when Danny pats me on my back. We hugged. "Hey, how's the baby doing?" Danny rubbed my belly.

"Great! I got more energy now than I did before when I got pregnant. Now what's for dinner?" I asked and he told me that he was going to make some grilled chicken, baked potatoes, corn and bread.

"I'm hungry now," I chuckle, rubbing my belly and Danny laughed.

We ate our dinner and I watched the sunset over the ocean. "It's so beautiful…" I whispered to myself and put my hand over my belly.

"Daddy, where fireworks?" Luck asked, looking for them. Danny chuckled and explained to Lucy.

"It's not dark yet but the fireworks should come up soon."

Lucy nodded and put her pacifier back on.

"She's a smart girl, Danny." I said as Danny sat down next to me. Danny smiled and looked at the sunset.

"What are you thinking about, Bella?" Danny asked, leaning back on his arms.

I sighed heavily and rubbed my belly. "I am thinking that once I start to show fully, I don't know how everybody is going to react. You, Lindsay, Stella, Aunt Karen and Uncle Elliot knows about the baby. That's it. I also have been thinking about telling Mac but I'm nervous," I shrugged my shoulders, looking at Danny.

Danny nodded. "I still think that you should tell Mac because at some point, someone is going to say something to Mac and he will be hurt and angry at same time. Trust me. But if you still don't want to reveal the baby to Mac… then it's your choice. I will still support you though."

I sighed, nodding. "Thanks, Danny." We hugged.

"Danny, I think we need to go home now because Lucy just fell asleep," Lindsay says, laughing.

We looked at Lucy and she was sleeping on the towel.

"Oh my ladybug is pooped out. Alright, Lindsay, we're going to take her home. Isabella, thank you for coming over. We had a great day. Sorry about not staying for fireworks," Danny kissed me on the cheek and picked sleeping Lucy up.

I hugged Lindsay and we said goodbyes to each other.

"Thanks!" I waved and went back down on the towel.

Fireworks appeared in the air thirty minutes later and I watched the beautiful fireworks.

I felt the moves in my belly and I frowned. I put my hands on my belly and waited for few minutes until I felt a kick.

I smiled and realized that it was the baby kicking. The first kick! I was so excited that I left the beach and came home. I called Stella and told her about the first kick. She was excited about that too.

I got into the bed and lay there for while, feeling my baby moving and kicking. "Now, baby, it's bedtime and we both need to sleep tonight." I say to my belly and turned off the light.

It was funny because once I turned off the light, she stopped kicking but was still moving around as I went to sleep.

Sorry it is so short but it's at least something to start with. Reviews!
