16.2 Alexander

"Hi, I have an appointment with doctor Sanchez."

"Name?" The lady asked.

"Katerina Montgomery." Kat replied and the woman nodded as she typed on her computer telling us to take a seat and that a nurse will get us shortly.

"But you did eventually meet him right?" Katrina asked as we sat on the comfy sofas in the waiting area.

"Yeah. He came with Ella to the house over for the holidays since they lived in Canada where they both work as doctors, that's how they had met. We learned more about him during the holidays and our assumptions of him were completely wrong. He treated Ella as a princess and was always at her beck and call ready to do anything for her. " I said and she nodded.

"She's a very lucky girl to have amazing siblings looking out for her" she stated and I hummed looking down at her as she rubbed her belly making me smile.

"You're just as lucky as her Kat. You have siblings that love and want the best for you so I don't blame them, aside from David since he knows me well, for having their suspicions about me" I said and she nodded.

"I'm sure once they get to know you they'll change their minds about you" she stated and I smiled grabbing her hand and raising it to my lips and pressing a kiss against her knuckles causing a light blush to coat her cheeks.

"Even if they don't like me, the only person I care about at the end of the day is you and the baby," I murmured and her eyes softened as she cupped my face.

"David likes you so that should be enough either way," she said making me chuckle.

"That's because he's my best friend," I replied and before she could reply we were being called in by a nurse who greeted us with a warm smile and asked Kat to te on the weight machine to get her weight before taking us to an empty room where she asked her questions before informing us that the doctor will be with us shortly then left us alone once again.

"Don't forget that he was pissed and whatevs to murder you when I told him about us sleeping together and you knocking me up?" she said and I hummed.

"How can I forget that? He threatened to castrate me for getting you pregnant and told me to step up and be a father which by the way I would've done either way whether he told me to or not. We both made this baby and we're both taking responsibility. As the saying goes, it takes two to tango." I replied making her chuckle and shake her head.

"David can be a little bit overbearing but he's a good guy," she said and I nodded.

"That is true," I replied just as there was a knock on the door and Doctor Sanchez walked in seconds later.

"Hello Kat, Alex. How are you two doing today?" She asked and once we replied she nodded and got to work.

"Alright let's see how this baby is doing shall we?" She asked and we nodded and she had Kat lay down on the bed and lift her shirt up before nearing her bump and writing it in her folder then grabbed a small device and slathered it with gel before pressing it against her stomach and moving it around a bit before the sound of a heartbeat filled the room. No matter how many times we hear that sound, it never gets old. My heart swelled with pride and love knowing that our baby was growing and was healthy.

"That's one healthy heartbeat," Doctor Sanchez said once she finished the heartbeat checkup, "Now if you'd follow me, we'll go do the ultrasound to take the baby's measurements and perhaps we'll be able to what you're having" we nodded and I helped Kat off the bed and followed the doctor across the hall towards the ultrasound room, "Alright you can lay down."

A few clicks here and there later the screen was up and in the middle was a blob in the form of a small human.

"And there's your baby. It's growing at a healthy rate. The baby is the size of a spaghetti squash. It measures 11 inches and weighs 15 ounces." the doctor said making Kat and I look at each other with smiles.

"Would you like to know the sex?" she asked and we nodded.

"You're having a healthy baby......"
