With the months passing quickly, the soon-to-be-parents had begun preparing for the baby's arrival. Baby-proofing rooms, and working on the nursery.

"How about John for a boy?" Cassandra asked while dipping her brush in the paint. They'd gone for a neutral color to stay faithful to their plan to find out the gender during birth. She paused for a moment to rest a hand on her growing baby bump, smiling as she waited to hear his opinion.

"Only because I have you." He smiled and reached to put his hand on her stomach again, hoping she wouldn't mind. "Both of you, how can I forget this wonderful gift for us."

He just liked to touch, it was something he'd done for a long time with her and he was thankful she never minded. It was something that made him feel grounded, it had become a little more after coming home to her from serving.

"Best gift we could be given." He smiled then tilted his head to kiss her nose. Before he tried to stop a yawn.

"Definitely mine."

He would be glad to know that he helped calm her and if she was scared what he could do to help her more. He didn't want her to go through anything on her own. He'd had times like that and didn't want her to feel anything close to how he had. As well as that she'd helped him through some pretty tough times and he he wanted to be with her for anything she needed him for.

"We can do that. I can do laundry tomorrow morning."

He kissed the back of her hand as he stood up. "Any time you are scared you tell me. We'll figure it out. I'll do the same."

He sighed. "If by help you mean supervise then, yes, that's allowed."

"You know tomorrow I'm going to get a photo of you with your hand on the bump, because I need to show everyone and maybe to embarrass them when they're older." He laughed as he started to climb into bed beside her, then stopped. He vanished off for a moment and came back in a new pair of sweatpants before climbing in beside her.

"Well I was thinking more me with the camera, do people do that?" He wasn't saying no, he was curious and if she wanted to do that then he wasn't going to say no to her.

"We can do that then." He didn't want to see her cry, he was worried they weren't happy tears.

"You mean like I do every time you're not looking?"

He laughed, "Someone is going to have to teach me how to do that, unless it's like holding a very precious football?"

He did though, he couldn't help himself sometimes just watching her when she was doing other things. It always made him feel so lucky to know her at first and that had only grown over time to a love that he didn't think he could put into words properly.

"That sounds like a smart idea." He would hate to do something wrong for the baby.

He looked at her.

"Sit back." He waved his hands at her to try and get her to sit back as he suddenly moved, sitting up then tucking the covers around her or more importantly the bump then he grabbed his pillow and put it next to her hip. Then he lay out next to her, his feet hanging off the bed so they weren't where his pillow had been and his head was by her hip, just resting a little on her thigh which was under the covers he'd tucked around her.

"This is only gonna be a short story because I'm all tired out from making your room ready for you." He put his hand on her bump where he'd felt the kicking earlier. "I mean you're gonna be here soon and we need to be ready. I bet your momma is already tired of me doing this."

"Well clearly your momma is a crazy lady and you better listen to her, because she's incredibly smart really and knows these things." He glanced up at her.

"But one day you're going to do incredibly stupid stuff sometimes and you won't want to tell us about it, I hope you have friends like mine, well ours." He reached to brush her fingertips with his. "I used to have a best friend who I wish you could meet. He'd love you and no doubt teach you all kinds of terrible things about me and your momma as well as so many bad habits."

He laughed quietly.

"We did stupid things all the time, more than your momma knows." He made a face at Cass briefly. "Me and my best friend, it was impressive we made it sometimes..." He faultered a little. There was a sort of cruel irony to that. It wasn't their dumb teenage antics that had cost them. It was something the pair of them hadn't even considered. "Love them, every day, don't be afraid of that." He closed his eyes and pressed his cheek to the bump.

"Sean was... oh when you're older I show you a picture of him. I'll show you a picture of your momma when we first met too, if she doesn't stop me. She was very pretty, she got even more beautiful though. But that's another story." He didn't look at her then, he gave her a little sideways glance.

"I need to tell everyone I married one beautiful lady who just gets better!" He smiled but it got a little distant, he would never. Never. Tell share with anyone about Vietnam or after.

"I miss him." He whispered. He didn't even think he could ask her if they ever had a boy could they add Sean's name in. He didn't think he could even if he knew she wouldn't mind. "And your momma looks after me when I get sad about that. She's great like that." He paused as he wasn't sure if he felt something then. He glanced up to Cass.

"We were trying to pick a name for you earlier. Do you want to help us?" He joked, hand still touching Cass, wondering if he'd get some sort of response.

He smiled at Cass when she said that, this time it reached his eyes. A genuine reason to push how he was feeling and be happy again. He loved Cass so much for helping him like that.

"You've got to give us your best kick to let us know." He glanced back a Cass a moment. "Jane?" He didn't feel anything. He looked at Cass to make the next suggestion.
