The night was filled with laughter, flirting, and a few too many cocktails. By the time the party ended, you were entwined in each other's arms, making your way to your house. You and Garfield had shared an unforgettable night, and now, eight weeks later, you found yourself with a growing baby bump. You had to buy new clothes to accommodate your expanding belly, and your energy levels had plummeted. The changes in your life were just as profound. The little things, like morning sickness and cravings, had become part of your daily life, and the joy of feeling the baby move was an experience like no other.

One evening, as you sat on the couch, cradling your swollen belly, you decided to reach out to Garfield. You pulled out your phone and began to text him. Soon, there was a little buzz from your phone and a response from Gar, saying that he’d be over soon. The house was quiet when you heard the bell ring. You padded to the door and opened it to find Garfield standing on your porch. He looked a bit surprised to see you, his eyes traveling over your body. His eyes went back up to yours and he offered a little smile to lighten the mood.

Garfield entered, his gaze taking in the familiar surroundings. “You look... different,” he said, his voice a mix of curiosity and concern.
