Chapter 35

I wake up extra early feeling very nauseous, but also full of anxiety. I carefully climb out of the bed and make my way out of the bedroom, bumping into Raven in the process.

"Hey, what are you doing up?" she asks.

"Woke up early and not feeling great." I explain, and she frowns a little.

"Want to go sit on the couch and I could make you some tea?" she asks, and I smile.

"That sounds great, thank you." I reply.

We go down the stairs and I go into the living room and get settled on the couch and after a few minutes, Raven comes back with a hot tea in her hands. She sets it on the end table beside me before going and sitting next to me.

"How come you're up?" I ask her.

"I couldn't sleep, I know your scared about all this, but I am just so excited to be having a niece or nephew." she replies excitedly, and I give a small laugh.

"Maybe you could give me some of your excitement and take some of my anxiety." I retort jokingly.

"If I could, I would." she states, and we both chuckle.
