“Tina, baby, if you don’t blink I am gonna squirt some of my contact solution in your eye.”  Bette winked at Tina and snapped her out of her worry zone.

“I am just worried, sorry babe.  It’s my nature I suppose and well it is annoying, so I am sorry for that.”  Tina was staring at her hands and twiddling her thumbs.

“Bette?”

“Yea babe?”

“I…I…I just want you to be happy and okay and the baby too.  I well we are so young and well I just, well fuck.  I am nervous and it’s exciting and I want the best for us.”  Tina could feel herself starting to well up.

“Tina come here babe.”  Bette pulled Tina in for a hug and it was not really noticeable of Bette’s lil bump at all as Tina laid her hand on her tummy.

“Baby, I just look we are in 30’s and ok, so we are 30 and 31 big deal, but still we need to make sure you take good care of you ok?”

“Tina, of course I will.  I am careful.  I work hard and long hours, but I also rest a lot and sit drink water a lot..and I don’t push.  Baby, I will do everything to make sure that I am safe and so is the baby.  I know that still doesn’t ease your mind, but you can’t control that and neither can I.”  This eased a bit of Tina’s worries and Bette was right, what can she control?

“I know..ok we need to go..come on Porter!  I want to pick out colors for our new babay!”  Tina grabbed Bette’s briefcase and dragged her out.  They bid James farewell for the day and jetted out.

At the Doctor’s

“Ok Bette, you know the drill strip and gown up for me ok?”  Dr Adriano was young and funny.  Bette liked her from the start and the fact they had done some races together made it easy for her to talk to her about her pregnancy and wanted her to deliver their baby.

“Yes mam, Francesca I mean, Dr Adriano, you up for the 10k next month?  We still gonna train next week?  I mean, since Tina will allow me to run with you since you’re my doc, you’re my only hope!”  Bette winked at Tina and got into her gown.
