Taylor's POV

"I'm telling you" he smiles at me in bed as I stroke his hair back. He opened the terrace doors which overlook the pool and the sea beyond, because we both woke up very warm.

"This baby has grown infinitesimally" he laughs his hands rubbing bump. Both palms going over me.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpa2CIin88P
"I know" I smile back at him, waiting for the little kicks.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZc4rjIaDF9
"Today I'm going to take you to a lemon grove" he announces smiling rubbing me still; no little kicks.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcKeYZflRy
"Lemons are pretty much a speciality in the amalfi coast" he smiles as I stroke his hair again and his jaw.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUPwey2Mvt
"We can even purchase some limoncello" he smiles.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAM31QyPQY2
"Taylor" Jay says dipping my chin up to his as I stare at bump waiting, I can feel the breeze rustle through the doors and I cling onto bump. Slight worry setting in.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwSzvJVMxl
"Mhmmm" I respond, trying to remain calm and wait for the kicks and jabs.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQVD9LOtxd
"Can you put your hands there again" I ask him and he looks at me; concerned by my tone.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uVL5FeOgE
"It's just" I say softly. He sweeps his hands over Henry and I feel nothing.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWylnMUH7Q
"There's no movement this morning" I say panicking. He kisses me softly and then stands to grab the pamphlets straight away. Pulls his phone from on the side and dials the number on the contact form for advice.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EtO1MqohD
Once the call connects he calmly explains our concern and nods waiting. He watches me whilst he's on hold.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzISYsRd55
"Hi" he greets the person on the other side of the line. He explains my concerns and waits for a response. Distantly I can hear a female voice.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwiFkzh6uI
"Yes, general health is good, checkup was last week too" he explains.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirGGg9gXqb
"We most certainly will try all of those" he says calmly.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqO5z2Jx9Y5
"Would you mind ? That would be fantastic" he adds softly.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJCAzPKjR5
"Of course" he says thanking the midwife and ending the call.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehQft3t3dp
Placing his phone on the side he lays down next to me. Pulling me into him, with his arms around my hips.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqGJowm482
"They say it's likely that baby has been moving all night long, and is resting. We should try ice cubes; or sweet food to wake him up" Jay says.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAhIcqFlsu
"Or a short little burst of exercise" he smiles.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6qoOCAxbC
"Let's do them all" I say to him getting up. I do a few little jumps on the spot, looking like an absolute fool whilst he heads down to the kitchen for ice.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNsggAJKlD
I hold onto my bump the entire time he's gone.
Trying to not let the panic and anxiety take over me. Tears roll down my cheeks as I wait for him feeling numb but jumping up and down either way.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBftqIn1FC4
"It's super cold" he says coming back into the room with a glass of ice cold water.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAGNtYxSiD
I take a sip and he kisses my forehead, wiping my eyes.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVEcLBTc17
"Darling" he says softly.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIhdbyZZsS
"You are going to be just fine" he says and his hands hold onto bump. I drink the water swallowing as he rubs bump slowly whilst looking into my eyes. A soft and caring expression on his face.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAco8UmaYup
He glances down at Henry, moves his hands down and bends in front of me in just his boxers.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQK1rMcyj8e
"Hey sleepyhead" he whispers to bump and I smile as Henry jabs, a strong kick which I couldn't miss.
He glances up at me a smile on his lips.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLXC1S5xw3
I continue drinking the cold water, it's actually pretty refreshing. Henry jabs a little more, and I smile down at Jay who is still on his knees.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzau0Z4ouL
"Were you just a sleepy baby" he says softly and my eyes cry happy tears as I watch him. Henry goes wild for Jays voice and I smile.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnQQAO9GH5
"I'm going to hold you when you're sleeping" he smiles and I wipe my eyes.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwVWEV35XT
"You know they say you should put them down when they sleep" I say and Jay looks up at me a wry smile on his lips.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QtL3EbCDD
"Mummy says no, but we can have sleepy cuddles" he smirks looking at my tummy.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3ZKzrDQbE
He kisses my tummy and I play with his hair again.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJY9GZ1xw07
"Let's make sure we don't worry mummy again, by having long sleeps" he says softly and then stands up, taking the water from me which I've finished.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZd3H8mwngU
"I love you" I whisper and he smiles.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQj6wY35oEb
"I love you" he says.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOlpECHxEr
"Now let's get everything checked anyways, everything is okay but just to ease your mind" he says softly, stroking my hair back.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYDDGB9Cdw
"Plus I would like to see my boy" he says softly kissing me.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18YYvdpEMe
"In Italy" I ask, melting into his touch.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUZG7aMZB3
"Yes the midwife will email me the details of a private clinic, we can also have a 3d scan there too" he suggests and I smile up at him.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfH8SomTjH
"Jay you're already the best daddy ever" I say softly.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSs6jWRNpG
"Did you see how worried you were; you're the best mother ever. Plus what kind of husband would I be if I didn't sort out all of our worries and take care of everything." He kisses me guides me to the shower.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpBZhQczct
Pulling off my slip he turns the shower on and I walk in ahead of him. He stands under the water with me and kisses me slowly and passionately.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdfoSha7ZL
"Hey, do you remember that shower we shared in my dorm room" I laugh and he scoffs.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJJiNcZddv
"Horrifying" he says, he used to complain endlessly about the university shower. He negotiated that I should come and move in with him purely for the need of having a decent shower.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Yig3Pdd2L
"Look at us now; married, pregnant and in a fancy shower that's almost the size of that entire university bedroom" I laugh.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Qmpyk6R9v
"You know" he whispers turning me around and letting the water stream down my back.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JvkTt7dzz
"I used to think about all of this back then" he whispers.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaOFU0LwPw
"Babies and fancy showers, with you as my wife" he smirks.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeCAPj36KA
"Ohh really" I ask him and he turns me back to him.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlzpwmdZxR
"Yes really" he smiles.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7BdDI9L7Y
"And that reminds me actually; baby shower, mum has been going on about dates" he says water dripping down his slick hair.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwjEsEWcFJ
"I can't wait" I tell him.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNq6m3Wrdm9
"I'll give you her number and you can plan" he explains as he turns the shower off and grabs towels for us.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiDLBAmeSW
Jay wraps me up in a towel and I follow him back through to the bedroom. It's not an en suite; this is a traditional building with large rooms and high ceilings. Ornate architecture rather than clean lines. It's rich in colour with terracottas and oranges and warm ivory walls. I follow him down the hall and head into the large bedroom.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZ3Ggh8yHD
The ceiling reaches high, and the terrace outside has vines and flowers trailing around the balcony. The bedroom features an ornate bed, which is adorned with white crisp linens. The walls are a warm ivory and there's a traditional dresser with an oval mirror.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnjc7z1CXx
I dress in some white shorts and a black off the shoulder top and sit in front of the mirror drying my hair out. Finally I apply a little bit of makeup; blush, lipstick and some mascara.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vYm8wtkvB
"You don't need makeup" he whispers looking at me through the mirror.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoXYMedx0a
"You're glowing" he smiles.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYm5vHyTJP
He massages my shoulders and I look up at him.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNedSNf5Xf
"All booked" he says softly kissing my neck.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JLSXHd3Cb
"I'll drive us after breakfast in the Mazda" he laughs, and I swat him.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFISUUzjQA
“Maserati, Mazda same thing!” I laugh and he chuckles.
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqMlkx1hxU
"I'm gonna go make us eggs and toast" he smiles and then kisses me before he leaves. His stare lingering on me before he goes.
