May. 10th, 2021 12:45 pmNico had wanted to make up for the chicken dinner that had gone all wrong. Grace had agreed, with the caveat that she choose a recipe that they could pull off together. So when the next Friday arrived and it was nearing time for his arrival, she had already set everything up - and even though she had wanted to do some of the prepwork, managed to hold off so that they could make dinner a true collaborative effort.
Grace didn't go out of her way to dress up in something fancy for dinner, but she did make an effort not to look too slobby - if a loose shirt and jeans and a soft cardigan even looked somewhat appropriate. She even looked somewhat rested, she thought, checking her appearance in the mirror, scrutinizing the very slight bags under her eyes. Her morning sickness was still bad, but at least during this time of day, she was usually feeling about as good as could be expected.
Truth be told, Grace almost couldn't wait to slip into the second trimester and leave all the pains of the first trimester behind.
Hope you're ready for some dinner, she texted Nico, settling in on her couch to wait for his arrival. Something or other was on the tv, but she wasn't particularly paying attention. She always felt nervous before they met up, and today was no exception.
