The Town Plaza [2]

Halee

I smile back and sigh, the baby kicking.

Lucian

I feel the baby kick and smile wider, watching her stomach with fascination.

Halee

I smile and sigh, "He's so impatient."

Lucian

I smile and kiss her stomach, resting my ear on it.

Halee

I smile and watch him, kissing the top of his head and resting my arms on his back.

Lucian

I smile wider at her and close my eyes, listening.

Halee

I let him listen and brush my thumb against his chest.

Lucian

Before I can drift to sleep, someone knocks on the door and I open my eyes. I stand and head to it, paying the pizza guy so Halee wouldn't have to get up.

Halee

I sit up and sigh, walking into the living room.

Lucian

After paying the guy, I shut the door and carry the box into the living room. I set it on the coffee table and sit beside Halee.

Halee

I smile back and take a deep breath, taking a slice.

Lucian

I do the same, taking a bite and glancing around.

Halee

I finish my peice and take another, yawning.

Lucian

I watch her, eating slowly, and soon do the same.

Halee

I finish and sigh, setting a hand on my stomach once finished.
