It was the day after getting out of the hospital and Calley sat across from Xai at the kitchen table while Brenda was serving them French toast with strawberries and whipped cream, bacon, sausage, and scrambled eggs. Calley almost drooled over the smell of the freshly cooked food. The aroma filled the house and tracked to every room causing her stomach to rumble…. she missed these home cooked meals. She took a bite out of the steaming hot French toast and her taste buds were filled with a sweet buttery goodness. She about melted and felt like she was in heaven, Brenda was definitely an amazing cook. Xai seemed to be overly happy today and enjoying his breakfast too Calley thought to herself as she continued eating her breakfast. Within minutes her food was devoured and she leaned back in her chair happily watch Xai finish his meal and he was also going over paperwork from his job. Lately he seemed to work from home when they needed him he would quickly stop in. He spent most his days by Calleys side and she was getting spoiled by his pampering. In fact she would miss him being there all the time after the baby was born. She got up from her chair and kissed his cheek gently tell him she was going to call Bradley and go sit in the living room. Xai gave her a weird look and then he smiled at her nodding and returning her kiss to her. When Calley sat on the couch she decided to text Bradley and take a nap instead. Once she texted him letting him know she was out of the hospital Calley got up from the couch and headed upstairs towards the bedroom. Xai noticed what she was doing and quickly ran to her side helping her up the stairs and to her bed. He tucked her in and gently kissed her forehead and she smiled at him as he walked away back to finish his work. She felt her stomach and song softly singing to her child as she quickly. About two hours later she woke-up from a nightmare and slightly gasped. Xai was now laying beside her watching Calley sleep and he held her tightly in a hug kissing her forehead. She had a tear running down her face and he gently wiped it away. "It's ok Calley I'm here it's just a nightmare" he spoke softly as she shook a little in his arms. "I don't want to sleep anymore" she said softly". "You don't have to. I'll spend the day just with you." He replied to her. Calley hugged him tightly smiling "let's watch a movie at the theater" she said excitedly. He smiled and nodded in agreement. She giggled with excitement adding she wanted popcorn with extra butter. "Of course " he said returning her smile. She gently got out of bed and put a short sleeve black lacy dress on showing the outline of her belly. She definitely looked like the baby was coming soon she thought to herself smiling. Xai reached around her neck putting a silver necklace on her with three connected hearts that represented their family of almost three. "Oh Xai it's beautiful" she gasped with happiness. "Just like you" he replied kissing her forehead as she blushed. He grabbed her hand and carefully directed her out of the room reaching the stairs. "Movie time" he said with a smile as Calley nodded with excitement. Once at the movies Calley felt a little tired but she decided not to tell Xai because he would probably take her home. They ordered one large Dr Pepper and One large popcorn with extra butter and sat down in the theater to wait for the movie to play. She was excited to see the new Spiderman movie but more excited that she was out of the house. Xai fed her a hand full of popcorn and then held the Dr Pepper straw right by her mouth and she took a huge gulp. He held her hand and the lights dimmed and the movie began. Within minutes of reclining back in her seat Calley drifted of to sleep.
Halfway thru the movie Xai glanced over at Calley who was fast asleep. She's been sleeping a lot lately he thought to himself as he caressed her hair. He decided to go ahead and take her home since she seemed exhausted maybe until the baby was born he would choose shorter trips with Calley. He stood up and picked her up carrying her gently out the theater and she rested her head on his chest mumbling softly. "Is the movie over?" He chuckled "No silly but we're going home." He kissed her head. She sighed and fell back to sleep. He put her in the backseat and buckled her up and the setting in the drivers seat he looked at her through the rear view mirror she looked gorgeous sleeping like a beautiful Angel he thought happily his Angel. Once home he scooped her up and carried her into the house whistling happily as she still was fast asleep. Once inside he laid her on couch covering her with a blanket. He went to the kitchen and the aroma of fresh baked oatmeal cookies filled his nose. Brenda smiled and took the cookies out of the oven to cool down. "Hello sir, the cookies should be done soon" she said cheerfully and Xai smiled. "Perfect they will be ready to eat when Calley wakes up" he said. She nodded and went back to preparing for lunch. Xai decided to finish some paperwork while Calley took a nap but he decided to sit in the recliner across from Calley just in case she needed him. He fumbled through the files as he listened to her mumbling in her sleep. He chuckled loudly he couldn't help but think how cute she was when she talked in her sleep. She opened her eyes and blinked rapidly while looking sleepily at Xai. "Oh I missed the movie" she said sadly. He chuckled at her again. "It's ok when the baby is born I'll treat you to as many movies as you want" he said to her smiling. "It's a deal she said" grinning ear to ear giving him a kiss on the cheek.
