A Close call

 I had just finished having an early dinner when I found out I was pregnant.
 I immediately rushed to tell Mark, who had just come home "Mark, well, I'm pregnant!"
 "Really? Wow!"
 He began to talk to the baby. "First, the teddy bear will go up to you and be all nice and cuddly..."
"..And then he'll cover your eyes.." 
 "...And then BOOM! He jumps in front of you." I laughed. Mark will be a great father.
 I had more trouble sleeping that night. I felt so guilty.
 When I woke up, I had gotten bigger. I still only had a small baby bump, though.
 I began to make the bed. Then I went outside to pay the bills.
 I was doing that when the fireplace caught on fire! And Mark was on fire too!
 It was a huge fire.
 But Mark didn't notice he was on fire.
 I ran inside, screaming at Mark to put the fire on him out.
 Sure, leave the pregnant woman to do all the work.
 Finally Mark noticed he was on fire. It took him long enough.
 As he freaked out, I put out the fire on him.
 He was slightly...singed after the incident though.
 I began to put out the big fire.
 Mark finally helped me.
In the end, we managed to control the fire. But after this, I'm definitely buying a fire alarm.
