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.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7B5KrqbZQ
"This baby has grown infinitesimally" he laughs his hands rubbing bump. Both palms going over me.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyuczlg2kG
"I know" I smile back at him, waiting for the little kicks.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzx2r2qFrH
"Today I'm going to take you to a lemon grove" he announces smiling rubbing me still; no little kicks.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOFWQHDI8T
"Lemons are pretty much a speciality in the amalfi coast" he smiles as I stroke his hair again and his jaw.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmkMJ4zpwQ
"We can even purchase some limoncello" he smiles.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nEnNLqQmr
"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.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUjIDLIpVA
"Mhmmm" I respond, trying to remain calm and wait for the kicks and jabs.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Sfw1JQOas
"Can you put your hands there again" I ask him and he looks at me; concerned by my tone.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00OeccmLoI
"It's just" I say softly. He sweeps his hands over Henry and I feel nothing.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiec0MOIjW
"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.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5d91Cg4ONv
Once the call connects he calmly explains our concern and nods waiting. He watches me whilst he's on hold.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDo5QQTkKQ3
"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.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOXaH5p9Ak
"Yes, general health is good, checkup was last week too" he explains.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsrsQo2QZP
"We most certainly will try all of those" he says calmly.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQnq1t4WBL
"Would you mind ? That would be fantastic" he adds softly.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgO4vwTPI9L
"Of course" he says thanking the midwife and ending the call.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHC8Ym6dx3
Placing his phone on the side he lays down next to me. Pulling me into him, with his arms around my hips.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvI2M2gl5C
"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.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvH1yDvX1w
"Or a short little burst of exercise" he smiles.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrA0OrQhZz
"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.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmt375m5WP0
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.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKnOhjoz6F
"It's super cold" he says coming back into the room with a glass of ice cold water.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBTr60Vzdj
I take a sip and he kisses my forehead, wiping my eyes.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnKS9Q6hJq
"Darling" he says softly.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHtZAwbU0p
"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.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAQcKW6eok
He glances down at Henry, moves his hands down and bends in front of me in just his boxers.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrtgwkPRgi
"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.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDFUUkBkZZ
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.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XZ5bdkQ45
"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.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr83yGwM9RW
"I'm going to hold you when you're sleeping" he smiles and I wipe my eyes.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0faHPnyhwq
"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.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiU8op6ENhI
"Mummy says no, but we can have sleepy cuddles" he smirks looking at my tummy.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rMmz9lB2y
He kisses my tummy and I play with his hair again.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Slr5eBceS
"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.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQ7d9uh9QJ
"I love you" I whisper and he smiles.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLgLuJcXrF
"I love you" he says.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmAvYB5Yt1
"Now let's get everything checked anyways, everything is okay but just to ease your mind" he says softly, stroking my hair back.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4vZSa9jLg
"Plus I would like to see my boy" he says softly kissing me.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YryNiEwvk
"In Italy" I ask, melting into his touch.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCrhyXG7fF
"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.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGv5Qbrrwu
"Jay you're already the best daddy ever" I say softly.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdahHkl6Za
"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.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZn5cVupKu
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.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0f8Xv7nX2c
"Hey, do you remember that shower we shared in my dorm room" I laugh and he scoffs.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugWtp4Edi0
"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.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8L4BPTb4k
"Look at us now; married, pregnant and in a fancy shower that's almost the size of that entire university bedroom" I laugh.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvPT1qjOVY
"You know" he whispers turning me around and letting the water stream down my back.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iBsQcN7K5
"I used to think about all of this back then" he whispers.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIl69mOlwT
"Babies and fancy showers, with you as my wife" he smirks.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGG3I9gbP7K
"Ohh really" I ask him and he turns me back to him.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwZHqlQeq0
"Yes really" he smiles.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVYMQH6gW5
"And that reminds me actually; baby shower, mum has been going on about dates" he says water dripping down his slick hair.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqql9t2dXbg
"I can't wait" I tell him.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQdmFUxWvz
"I'll give you her number and you can plan" he explains as he turns the shower off and grabs towels for us.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13T6CjpaaR
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.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rzYrFycXI
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.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUR2AXIJjA5
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.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4JRV4OK7i
"You don't need makeup" he whispers looking at me through the mirror.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMo1hqyBlq8
"You're glowing" he smiles.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2Px1jlCB2
He massages my shoulders and I look up at him.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGLL3OfYvO
"All booked" he says softly kissing my neck.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBiVGRAOgXr
"I'll drive us after breakfast in the Mazda" he laughs, and I swat him.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIG5u6rGha
“Maserati, Mazda same thing!” I laugh and he chuckles.
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrHxpDvU9j
"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.
