~Kari’s POV~
I am now four months pregnant. Tony and I sat in the waiting room waiting for my name to be called. I was getting an ultrasound. The nurse finally called my name and led us to a room to wait for the doctor. A few moments later, she came inside. She greeted us and asked a few questions. She instructed me to lay down on a bed and pull up my shirt. I did as told. The gel felt cold on my stomach and I giggled a little at the feeling. She rolled the machine over my stomach as an image appeared on the screen. I heard Tony gasp quietly when the image popped up. He stared in awe the same way I did.
“Would you like to know the gender of your baby?” the doctor asked us. I looked over to Tony and he nodded. She rolled the machine over me a little more before telling us.
“Looks like it’s a boy. Congratulations.” She said with a smile. I looked over at Tony and he smiled at me. The doctor helped me get cleaned up. “I’ll see you soon. Have a nice day.” The nurse said as she exited the room with Tony and I following. We walked outside and he grabbed my hand. We got in the car and Tony began to drive. I noticed he wasn’t headed towards the house.
“Where are we going?” I asked curiously.
“I want to check something out.” A little later, Tony parked the car. I turned to see that we were in front of Babies R Us. He turned off the car and smiled at me. We headed inside and I stood there for a moment. I was honestly a little overwhelmed from all the things around me. We walked over to the cribs and began to look around. “Kari?” I heard Tony ask bringing me out of my overwhelming trance.
“Yea?”
“Would it be ok if I moved in with you?”
“What do you mean? We are already living together.” I said confused.
“No I mean would it be ok if you shared your room with me so that our son can have mine.”
“Of course.” I said as I hugged him. It was really nice to see Tony so committed to our son.
“So while we’re here, you mind if I buy that?” he said pointing to one of the many cribs.
“Are you sure? I can buy it when I get paid-“ I was cut off by Tony.
“No no no. I’m going to buy that because I’m that baby’s father and it’s my job to give him everything he needs.” He said crossing his arms trying to be serious.
“Fine.” I said smiling as I hugged him. He uncrossed his arms and hugged me back. We walked over to look at some of the baby clothes. Tony insisted on buying a few that he thought were nice. He freaked out when he saw pajamas with a storm trooper on them. I laughed a little at his excitement. When we were done looking at the clothes, we headed to the register and paid for everything. We got in the car and drove home. I saw Tony smiling the whole way. We arrived and began to take the things out of the car.
“What’s all that?” my dad said motioning to the things we were carrying in.
“Stuff.” Tony said jokingly. We finished bringing the things inside.
“So did they tell you what gender the baby is?” my dad asked.
“Yup.” I said smiling. I looked over at Tony and he looked over at me. “It’s a boy.” We both said at the same time.
“Wow that’s great.” My dad said as he hugged me. He let go and walked over to the bags we had walked in with earlier. “I’m guessing that’s why you got this?” he said holding up the storm trooper pajamas.
“I had to!” Tony said trying to justify himself. I laughed a little. He kept looking through to see what else we had gotten. He saw the crib.
“Where you guys going to put that?”
“About that… um well I was thinking about sharing a room with Kari…” Tony said. My dad thought about it for a moment.
“Well I’d tell you not to fool around but looks like I’m a little too late for that. So just be careful and make sure she sleeps well ok?” he nodded. The rest of the day went by pretty quickly. We ate dinner and just relaxed for a while. Tony and I went into my room and listened to music. We started to get tired after a while and decided to head to sleep. I was unmaking my bed when I turned and saw Tony standing at my door.
“I thought you were going to sleep?” I said.
“Well since I’m going to be sleeping in here, I want to start getting comfortable with it. So can I? Please?” he said giving me puppy eyes. I nodded and he walked in. He laid down on my bed and I turned off the light, I laid down as well and got comfy. “Good night, love. Good night son.” He said.
“Good night Tony.” I closed my eyes and felt Tony place his hands on my stomach. I fell asleep with a smile on my face.
