"It's probably nothing." She stopped, grimacing at the tenderness in her private area.

"Or a bladder infection." He walked her to the bed. "We should call her now."

"It's almost two in the morning."

"She is a doctor and is accustomed to getting calls at odd hours." He reached for the phone.

"Wade-"

"Rachel. I apologize for waking you." He listened for a minute and then smiled. "Good to hear." He shot a look at Remi. "She was up anyway. Could you pop by here? Remi's urine is spotty and looks like blood." He listened again. "It does have an odor."

"Wow. I am not embarrassed or self-conscious at all," she muttered.

"And there was some pain." He listened again. "Thank you." he said before hanging up. "She is on her way. There is a strong possibility that it is a bladder infection."

"And ordinary women carrying babies, would have to wait to go and see their OBGYN in the morning. And you just waved a magic wand and she is on her way."

He lifted a brow. "Are you complaining?"

"No. I am tired and sluggish and my pee smells like crap. Not to mention that you and Rachel discussed the fact that my pee smells like crap."

"Rachel happens to be a doctor and I am your man." He plumped the pillows behind her head.

"And now I feel like crying. I hate this!"

"You hate being pregnant."

"Right now I do and don't get up your high and mighty horse with me mister. You are not the one going through all this shit. I am, me alone. So I am entitled to bitch and hate you more than a little."

"Point taken. Would you like some tea?"

The tears came then, just started to flow down her cheeks as if a pipe had been turned on.

"Darling."

"Please do not hold me-" She dissolved even further when he gathered her into his arms.

"I feel like an idiot."

"You are entitled."

She eased back to peer at him. "I am entitled to feel like an idiot?"

"You are entitled to feel all these emotions veering throughout your body." He grinned and using a corner of her robe, wiped at the tears. "And feel like an idiot."

"Don't make me hurt you."

He kissed her wet cheeks gently. "I am going down to let Rachel in. Please don't cry anymore until I am back."

"Bite me."

"I will indulge you on that later on." Picking up his robe, he tied the sash and strode from the room.

"Definitely a bladder infection," Rachel told her with a smile. "This antibiotic is not harmful to you or the baby and will clear it up in days."

"Why do you look so efficient and professional at two in the morning?" Remi grumbled. "It's not natural."
