NUMBER 2
Dale got back from putting Claire to bed. He sat next to Julia on the couch. She was reading the magazine that he brought home. Since they talk of getting married very soon she thought that she should get ideas from these magazine. Dale and she chose the invitation that they will send to their friends and family. They chose a white paper with golden rings on it; it was very trendy. Dale went to do tea in the kitchen and when he came back she was looking at the wedding dresses. ‘’Do you think that I should plan a dress where a baby bump could fit or not? ‘’ ‘’I don’t know this kind of thing but I know that when a woman is pregnant tight clothes are not recommended. ‘’ ‘’Yes, that’s true. I should pick an emperor dress or a maternity dress. ‘’ ‘’That’s what I think too. ‘’ ‘’Good, so I’ll show you what are my favorite and after we could go to bed; because you look exhausted. ‘’ ‘’Alright, show me! ‘’ Julia showed him 7 dresses; all beautiful ones. He chose 4 dresses that he liked the most. One was a maternity dress; she got short sleeves, the dress goes to her knee, the back was open and the front was amazing; not too tight for the bump. The 3 other ones were all different but one point was identical with the 4 dresses. They all have laces. Dale is comparing Julia to laces all the time; she’s fragile and sophisticated. Dale wants his wife-to-be to wear lace at their wedding and agreed with his choice. ‘’Julia, why don’t we go to bed now! ‘’ ‘’Yes, we are going. Mommy better go to sleep because baby takes a lot of mommy’s energy while growing up.’’ affirmed Julia while touching and looking to her little stomach. ‘’And your sister Claire takes a lot of daddy’s energy when your mommy is not home with us.’’ said Dale talking to Julia’s stomach. Dale kissed Julia on her sweet lips and they cuddle on the couch before going to bed. He took Julia’s hands and helps her to get up from the couch. They both went upstairs and went to bed. ‘’Let’s hope that she won’t make another nightmares tonight! ‘’ … 8am and no crying, no running, to talking; just the silence. Julia woke up and went down stairs to do coffee and breakfast. She heard on the baby monitor that is in Claire’s room. They left the monitor there even if she’s 3 years old but soon the monitor will be in the baby’s room. Julia heard her move and starts to cry. She got upstairs as fast as she can. She wants Dale to sleep more a little bit. ‘’Hey beautiful girl! Come here, we’ll go downstairs to eat something. ‘’ Claire made a sign with her head and she point her stuffed animal and her blanket; without these two thing she has problem to wake up in the morning. Julia gave her both things and took her in her arm to go downstairs. Downstairs, Julia started a princess movie on the kitchen television and prepared Claire’s breakfast; fruits and yogurt. She sat down beside her daughter in the living room. Julia brought the movie in the DVD over there and they both watched the movie together. Claire’s head was on Julia’s chest; it felt like she was about to fall asleep again. The movie ended and they were both asleep on the couch. Dale woke up and saw that Julia wasn’t in their bad and Claire wasn’t in her room. He went downstairs and he saw his girls both asleep on the couch. ‘’Future Mrs. Barbara! You are so beautiful when you sleep with our daughter like this. ‘’ ‘’You’re up! I hope that you slept well.’’ ‘’I do, since how long are you up? ‘’ ‘’Maybe 2 hours and Claire since 1h15min. Are you working today? ‘’ ‘’No but I have got to go to the station anyway. Apparently the guys have something to give me.’’ ‘’Like a gift? ‘’ ‘’Something like this; they texted me this morning to tell me to come over! ‘’ ‘’Do they know that we are getting married or that I’m pregnant again? ‘’ ‘’I don’t think but they know everything so maybe. Anyway, I’ll eat on the road. See you later my babies!’’ ‘’Hey, you forgot something! ‘’ Dale turned and look to Julia all suspicious. ‘’Where’s my kiss? ‘’ He came back and kiss is wife-to-be. At the station, Dale was alone, nobody was there. He went to the locker room. He opened his locker and he saw note from the team. While he was reading the note, everybody screamed ‘’Congratulations!’’ They knew about everything; the weeding and the second baby. His boss came in the front and read a note that everybody wrote together. « Dear Mr. Barbara, The crew and I want to congratulate you on your wedding with Mrs. Julia Shumway, reporter at the Zenith local newspaper and also on your new baby on the way. We won’t hide you that some of us are very jealous of you. Your girlfriend, now fiancée is gorgeous. We hope you the best for the future. She has an amazing body so the question that comes into our minds is why would you make her pregnant again? And the answer in our minds was; maybe it’s because he likes to see her like that or it’s because he will appreciate more her body after. We are joking, we know why you are doing this to her and we totally understand. She’s perfect, you’re perfect and you little Claire is perfect; why would you not want had another perfect baby to your family? Seriously Dale, take care of you fiancée, get married and cuddle her until the baby is born, that’s the only thing that we want for you. Sincerely, all the guys from the station » They all gave him their gift. A lot of things were on the theme of the firefighters, some gave baby clothes others things of the wedding and some others cards with money and congratulations. Dale was so happy to have such a great team of co-worker. He always has fun when he comes to work. He wasn’t shocked by the note that they all wrote because it’s always this kind of humour and he knows that some guys are jealous of him because of Julia. He asked if he could keep the little letter that the boss read and they gave him the letter with a sign to put on the car. It’s written ‘’this dad is a firefighter! ‘’. END
