Chapter 334

Rachel

Our first week is over in the Hamptons I couldn’t believe it went so quickly. We spend everyday walking along the beach, lying at the swimming pool and eating delicious snacks Francesca made for us. Massimo was true to his word every waking minute he spend with me he only worked when I went down for a nap. It was Friday morning and I couldn’t get out of bed it was already 11 am when I heard Massimo coming up the stairs. Today was not going to be one of those days we walk on the beach or lie at the swimming pool I started having Braxton-Hicks contractions from early this morning so I was still lying in bed hoping they will go away. “Morning Bella I just came to see if you still alive?” “Morning Massimo, barely.” “Why what’s wrong Bella?” “I started having Braxton-Hick’s contractions this morning.” “Is it as bad as the previous time?” “Thank God no. But it’s still uncomfortable.” “You know the pilot is here anytime you feel we need to go to the hospital you just tell me we are ready; your hospital bag is already in the chopper.” “Thank you, Massimo, but I don’t think it will be necessary, can you just help me to get out of bed and in the shower.” “Off course sweetheart anything you need I’m here.” “I’m sorry we not going to be able to have our walk on the beach this morning.” “Nonsense sweetheart let’s just get you ready for the day, that’s all we need to do and if you want to get back in bed then you can go back to bed.” “I’m sure I’ll make it to the living room Massimo.” “Anything you want.” Massimo helped me to the bathroom and helped me to get undress. He even walked with me into the shower, no the shower wasn’t on already. He got out and I opened the water. I was standing under the warm water enjoying it running down my body when suddenly I got a very bad contraction. I bend forward and grabbed at my big round belly. Within seconds Massimo was in the shower with me. “What’s wrong Bella?” “Just a very bad contraction.” “Come let’s get you out of the shower.” “But now you are wet.” “Don’t worry about me Bella. Let’s worry about you.” He said while taking his shoes of and helping me to get covered in a very large towel. When we reach the walk-in closet Massimo was already rid of all his cloths and was only standing in his boxers. I just want to say he did all this while holding me. He dried me and helped me into some maternity leggings and a huge T-shirt. Then he let me sit on the bench in the closet. “You just sit there let me get dressed then we can decide what you want to do.” “I’m not going anywhere don’t worry about that. I can’t, not even if I tried.” Massimo just smiled at me but he looked worried. He quickly got dressed and took all the wet cloths to the bathroom. “Come Bella where do you wanne go?” “I’m hungry so downstairs please, maybe I’ll make myself comfortable in the living room today.” “We can do that.” We walked down the stairs but with every step it felt like the contractions got worse. I had to stop after every 3rd step. “You sure you don’t want to go to the hospital Bella?” “No Massimo I promise I’ll tell you it’s not that bad.” “It doesn’t look like it.” Eventually we got downstairs and Massimo put me on the coach in the living room with my feet up. “I’ll go and tell Francesca to bring you something to eat, anything in specific you are in the mood for?” “Yes, a chocolate croissant and coffee.” “If there is not chocolate croissant I’ll sent Marco to the bakery, will you be able to wait.” “Off course Massimo.” “Okay I’m right back.” I switch on the TV while I heard Massimo going through the cupboards in the kitchen frantically and then I heard Francesca asking him to please leave the kitchen, he was making her nervous. He did come out with an espresso for him and a Hazelnut Ice latte for me decaf off course. “Here you go Bella. There are no croissants I’m quickly going to get Marco to get some, anything else he should get? “Something with custard please.” I was in a mood for really sweet pastries today. This was new to me.” “Okay Bella your wish is my command.” Massimo gave me my ice latte and then went looking for Marco. Why he didn’t call him I wouldn’t know but I think Massimo is in new territory and are not sure of what to do there is no plan we can’t rush to the hospital because they will just send us back home. It was the first time I’m getting the Braxton-Hicks contractions since I’ve been admitted so I know this is not labor it was just sore and uncomfortable. Massimo came back out of breath. “Okay Luca and Marco is on there way to the bakery I told them not to come back if they didn’t find what you wanted.” “Massimo it’s not that bad.” “No what you want you will get.” “But if they can’t get it then it’s fine Massimo.” “No, it’s not what else can I get you?” I needed to calm Massimo down I needed him to sit still because he was making me nervous. “You can give me a foot rub.” That was the only thing I could think of and I really did need a foot rub. “I can do that.” He went and sat on the other corner of the couch and took my feet in his lap then he started to massage them. “Oh, that’s nice Massimo.” “Good does it help with the contractions.” Do I tell him the truth or do I make him feel better. Let’s just go with keeping him calm and lie “Yes Massimo it helps.” “Then I’ll sit here the whole day and massage your feet Bella anything to make you feel better.”
