Baby Blues
Chapter 5: New Beginnings
*~ A Few Weeks Later ~*
"Beep! Beep!" Lizzie awoke to the harsh sound of her alarm clocking going off. She hit the snooze button, then rubbed her eyes and yawned. She looked over at Gordo, who was still sound asleep.
"Gordo!" she called. "Time to get up."
No response.
"Gordo!" she exclaimed, this time hitting him hard on the shoulder.
Gordo moved a little and opened his eyes. "What?" he asked.
"It's time to get up." She replied.
"Right." He answered, putting his head back down on the pillow.
"Seriously." She scolded him.
"Fine." Gordo gave in.
He headed off to the shower as Lizzie made the bed. She finished doing that and then selected her outfit for the day. It was going to be a big one. Not only was it the first day of school, but it was also Gordo and Lizzie's first appointment with the fertility specialist. Lizzie was hopeful that they would be able to figure out what they were doing wrong, but also nervous that it was something that couldn't be fixed.
By the time she had gotten her clothes in order, Gordo was finished with the shower. She stepped in as he stood at the sink, shaving.
"What time is that appointment again?" he asked, over the loud gushing of water.
"3:30!" she called back. "Don't forget!"
"I won't." he assured her. How could he? This was going to be the answer. As nervous as Lizzie was, Gordo was 10 times as optimistic about the situation. As far as he was concerned, in 9 months, they would be holding a brand new baby in their arms.
Lizzie stepped out of the shower and threw on her bathrobe. She got out her hairdryer and began to dry her hair at her own sink, next to Gordo's. He had finished shaving and was now brushing his hair. She smiled as he tried to tame his thick brown curls. She loved this. Their morning routine. Getting ready together, Gordo making them breakfast while Lizzie finished getting dressed. All that was missing from this typical morning was a sleepy child, reluctantly preparing for a day of school.
Gordo had finished his hair and was in the bedroom getting dressed. Lizzie finished her hair, and applied her makeup. Then she put on her black Capri pants and a light blue sweater set. She added her Tiffany heart necklace and bracelet, a pair of earrings and topped it all of with a pair of black slide sandals. She was ready for the day.
"Hello Mrs. Gordon." Gordo greeted her.
"Good morning." Lizzie replied. "Breakfast smells good."
"I made toast, eggs and coffee." Gordo remarked proudly.
Lizzie laughed. He was so cute.
Both sat down to breakfast and chatted about the days events. Afterwards, Lizzie cleaned up the dishes, and Gordo departed for work.
"Goodbye sweetheart." He kissed her. "Have a good first day!"
"Thanks. I'll see you at 3:30 at Dr. Cameron's office." Lizzie told him.
"I'll be there." Gordo called from the garage. "Love you!"
"You too!" Lizzie called back.
Shortly after that, Lizzie grabbed her purse and her messenger bag, climbed into her Jeep Liberty, and headed off to school.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lizzie walked down the hallway after the welcome back breakfast for the teachers. She reached her classroom and made sure everything was in order for the students, who would be arriving soon. She had put up the bulletin boards, restocked the reading area, placed nametags on desks and decorated the room in a cheery fall theme. Everything was perfect.
A few minutes later, the students began to arrive. After everyone had found his or her seat, Lizzie made her little speech.
"Good morning everyone, and welcome to 4th grade! My name is Mrs. Gordon, and I am your teacher. I know that we are going to have a wonderful year together, and I'm looking forward to having a lot of fun while we learn. So, know I will call out attendance, and then we'll get to know each other a little better."
Lizzie grabbed her roster and began to call out names. "Hannah Allen?"
"Here." Replied a cute little girl with brown pigtails.
Lizzie smiled, and continued on. "Colin Brown?" "Here." Called a little boy with reddish hair and lots of freckles.
Lizzie read through the rest of her 18 students until she reached Kayla Walters. "Perfect attendance!" she remarked happily.
The rest of the day passed by quickly. Lizzie's kids were very well behaved. She was glad to have an easy class this year. She had had her share of problem children.
After the students had been dismissed at 2:30, and a quick staff meeting, Lizzie was on her way to the appointment. She got there at 3:25, and was shocked to see Gordo had already arrived.
"Hey!" she greeted him.
"Don't sound so shocked." He joked. "How is your class?"
"Pretty good. No behavioral issues as of yet." She remarked.
"That's good." He replied.
Just then, the nurse came out. "Mr. and Mrs. Gordon?" she called.
"That'd be us." Gordo replied.
"Follow me please."
Lizzie and Gordo followed the nurse to an examination room. Soon after that, Dr. Cameron came in and asked them some questions, and took a few blood samples. She came back a little while after that.
"Well, according to these tests, there are no medical reasons why you two should not be pregnant." She remarked. "However, I think our best bet would be to put you on fertility drugs, Lizzie."
"Ok." Lizzie agreed.
"I'm going to write you a prescription." She continued. "Now, there will be some side effects, such as headaches, fatigue, mood swings. Also, I must tell you, it could be up to six months before you conceive."
"We're up for it." Replied Gordo.
"We'll do anything." Lizzie added. Dr. Cameron smiled. "I can see you two are eager to be parents. Well, you can start these tomorrow Lizzie, and we'll take it from there. I'll want to see you again in 3 months."
"Ok." Lizzie and Gordo replied.
After they had filled the prescription, Lizzie and Gordo decided to catch a bite to eat.
"So, we're really going to do this?" asked Gordo.
"Yep." Replied Lizzie.
"I can't believe we might have a baby 9 months from now!" Gordo said excitedly.
"Well, Dr. Cameron said it could take a while, but it is pretty exciting." She admitted.
"I can't wait!" remarked Gordo.
"Me either." Lizzie agreed.
