Four months into her pregnancy, and Nikkie was really grateful to be past all the throwing up, tiredness, and mood swings. She finally felt good enough to get up and around, going shopping and getting to her doctor appointments, without feeling like she needed to take a nap as soon as she got home.

She'd texted Joey, asking if he wanted to drop by for dinner and chatting, then settled herself onto the couch with some tea to wait.

	Joey grinned the moment he received the text, and he gathered a few things up so he could head over. When he was let into Nikkie's house, he made his way to the sofa where she was perched, and flopped himself down beside her. "Hello, my beautifuls!" he said, cheerfully. "How are both of you today?"

	Nikkie looked up at him and smiled, pleased that he was here. "This one seems to be quiet," she said, gesturing at her abdomen. "And I finally feel human again, so I figured we should celebrate. I'm really done with throwing up all the time." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Joey was fairly sure he would be done with throwing up all the time too. "Definitely always here for human celebrations," he said with a grin. "Anything you want to do specifically?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Let's go out," Nikkie suggested. "Go for a walk, or have lunch, or something. I've become very acquainted with my bathroom for the past couple of weeks, and that walls are closing in." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Right, out we will go," he said with a smile. "And not to look at bathroom fixtures. Lunch sounds really nice." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Nikkie pushed herself up off the couch and grabbed her coat. A cool spring breeze greeted her, and she smiled and breathed deeply. She laughed at Joey's comment. "Yeah, I'd probably start twitching. And no one wants that. But I am hungry, so yes. Food good." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Joey wrapped his arm around her as they left the house. "Shall I drive us somewhere awesome?" he asked, wondering if she would rather that or just wander down the block. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Could we just walk for a bit, maybe find someplace?" she asked. "It's been too long since we just went on a walk, or since my energy level has been up to where I wanted to." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Perfect," he said, lacing his fingers with hers. When he imagined a lifetime of days like this, it made him so happy he nearly forgot his past trauma. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Nikkie squeezed his hand as they set off down the block. The other one rested protectively over her ever-growing bump, almost unconsciously. "Have you thought about any names you might like?" she asked as they walked. "I change my mind every hour, it seems like. So I'm really open to suggestions." (Reply to this) (Parent)
