Her days have started to look mostly the same. She's still on the morning shift at the diner (which is fine, she likes being home with Neal in the evening), but she doesn't even really need to set an alarm anymore. It never fails, 6am rolls around and she's running for the bathroom. It doesn't matter what she ate the night before; every morning, like clockwork, she's making friends with the toilet.

She's so tired all the time too, and she can't even have coffee to wake up. Her one consolation right now is that she can eat whatever she wants.

The first thing she does when she gets home after work is go to take a shower. There are so many food smells clinging to her clothes, and to her skin, and she needs to be rid of them. She puts on something more comfortable – stretchy pants and one of Neal's t-shirts – and plops on the couch to wait for him to get home. Her belly is starting to grow larger and she's going to need to go shopping for some maternity clothes soon. How are they going to afford that?

She closes her eyes while waiting for him to get home. She's not even halfway through yet. It's going to be a long six more months.

Neal smiled when it seemed like she was getting tired. He continued to massage her feet, rolling her toes between his fingers and then moving his way over the bridge and heel of her foot. This was something that he hasn't had a lot of practice with but after learning that Emma was pregnet he'd learned. He read somewhere that rubbing someone's feet can help their whole body relax.

She's just going to nap now, right there on the couch. Sorry, Neal. Hopefully you weren't expecting too much from her today.

Neal smiled and kept rubbing her feet. When he was sure that she was asleep he curled up with her and fell asleep holding her. He didn't care what they did as long as they were together. It felt nice and he didn't' want to let her go.
