Chapter 34 -0 E -0 It tugs at my heart. I'm hoping to feel some more today. I have become addicted to it. I know why my brothers were always smiling when they were touching their ol'e ladies' stomachs., Speed always had her hands on Gretchen's stomach when Brick didn't. I felt Pocket's babies move and it was cool. But to feel your own is awesome. Enough of that. Let me tell you why I am excited about tonight. We are going to our first childbirth class. Yes, I said we. Tony was going to take Silvy but I told both of them that I was doing it. Silvy wanted to argue but Tony went to bat for me and Silvy caved. And it worked out since Gena had to cover the class for the nurse that normally does it. Leaving Tony to watch Xavier. So here I am with one arm around Silvy's waist, the other holding her pillows and walking to the conference room setup for the class . "Hey, Gena," Silvy said. Gena hugged Silvy "Hey." Gena looks at me and I can see the wheels turning in her head. I'm wearing my kutte so she knows I'm a Renegade. Does she have a problem with it? Or is she trying to figure out who I am to Silvy and the baby?" Gena, this is Goof," Silvy said. I move the hand that was holding Silvy and hold it out to Gena. "Nice to meet you," I said. Gena looks at me then Silvy. More like at Silvy's belly. "I'll explain later," Silvy said. Gena nods then takes my hand. "Nice to meet you Goof," she said. She looks at my kutte again. "Renegades. You know Sabine and Viper?" she asked. "I know pocket. She is a good friend of mine. And Viper is my Prez." I said. Gena nods " Since you know them and Silvy I'm going to assume you are a good man. My Tony seems to think so . Don't prove us wrong." Gena said. " Gena." Silvy groans." It is alright Silvy. Gena is just looking out for you. I respect that. Gena I'm going to do everything I can to not prove you wrong." I said. "Good. Let's go get started." Gena said. We entered the room that had five other couples in it. I helped Silvy sit on the floor and sat behind her. Silvy instinctively leaned into me. I wrapped my arms around her and placed my hands on her stomach. Gena told the class what she was going to go over today and what to expect from the rest of the classes. The bottom line was to teach breathing techniques that can help through the birthing process. It will teach different birthing options that are available. I didn't know there were different options. Looks like I'm going to learn something myself instead of just supporting Silvy. Gena went over the things each birthing coach would need to do to help the mom in labor. I just went to support Silvy but the more I learned the more I was happy to be in the class for myself. I feel like I should be taking notes. I'm going to everything Gena says and the next instructor. They even offered a class for new dads in baby care. Like diapering, bathing, swaddling and do's and don't's for newborns. I am going to learn but I have a better idea than the class. I have sisters with babies I can use. When the class ended Silvy, Gena and I walked out." Silvy, do you want me to give you a ride home?" Gena asked. What am I chopped liver? "No, I'm going to see if I can't persuade Goof to take me for cheesecake and fries," Silvy said, rubbing her stomach. I wrap my arm around Silvy " Just tell me where." Gena laughs "Go get fed. I'll see you tomorrow for the dress fittings." Gena left and I escorted Silvy to the car to get her snack. There was no way Silvy was going to have to persuade me. All she has to do is ask or tell me what she wants. Chapter Comments
