Chelsea sighed as she scrolled through her facebook app. There wasn't really much to see, just people she knew from high school and college sharing memes and useless bits about their lives. It was mostly just a way for her to pass time while she was waiting for her boyfriend to get home. He should've been back by now, but maybe he stopped by to get something for them to cook for dinner. Chelsea was almost ready to close her app and toss her phone aside when something in her timeline caught her attention. She scrolled back up, barely glancing at the name of her one of her high school acquaintances before she focused her attention on the image underneath, a grainy black and white ultrasound. Chelsea felt her stomach turn sour and she finally tossed her phone next to her on the couch, pulling one of the throw pillows to her chest. She knew she should be happy for this girl she barely knew anymore, but she just couldn't bring herself to do it, not when all she wanted was to have a baby of her own. She and Zacky had been trying - and quite a lot - but so far she still wasn't pregnant and it just wasn't fair. But at least Chelsea could ignore these people; all she had to do was stay off of facebook and it was easy enough to pretend she wasn't the only one not having a baby. If someone close to her got pregnant, she didn't know how she would handle it.
I'm going to stop by that little Italian place and get something for dinner. You want your usual? Matt sent the text message to Allie as he left the studio. After a long day of work, he was more than looking forward to just sitting on the couch with Allie and relaxing, watching a few movies before they went to the bed. Giving a wave over his shoulder to the guys, he climbed into his car and drove away, his stomach already growling at the thought of the shrimp scampi he was going to order. Once the food was safely in the passenger seat, he headed home, a big grin on his face as he walked through the front door. "Allie, I'm home!" Matt called out, shutting the front door. He walked into the kitchen and sat the takeout containers on the counter. Looking around into the living room, he didn't see Allie anywhere. "Allie? Where are you? I've got the food. I figured we could eat and watch a movie and just relax for the rest of the night. I've had a long day." Matt cracked a grin at his own joke. He grabbed himself a beer from the fridge, carrying the food into the living room. Allie was probably just in the bathroom, taking a shower or something. She'd be down soon.
