C A Star is Born (closed with SazzyP260)

Caleb was huffy an short-tempered for the rest of the night after that incident. Cindy continued pushing his buttons in small, simple little ways and it was grating on his every nerve - and they had already been fragile to begin with; he knew that his nerves would snap like a violin bowstring if she continued on the way she was.

He snapped at the waiter for putting 'too much cheese' on his baked potato - Cindy laughed in his face and said "How can you have too much cheese on a baked potato". He got upset that they couldn't make chocolate milk shakes and would not provide one for him, even if bribed with money - Cindy mocked him and then proceeded to order a large bowl of chocolate ice cream. He asked if he could have a bowl of cherries to go with his ice cream that he begrudgingly accepted in favor of his milkshake - they said they had a limit on how many cherries each customer got, and then forgot the cherries all together - Cindy made a production out of eating the three cherries that were on her ice cream.

After they got back to the hotel, Caleb didn't even wait to say goodbye. He got out of the car, as unsteadily as he could, and shuffle-waddled his way through the hotel and onto the elevator. He didn't stop until he was in their suite, on the bed, an sobbing almost uncontrollably into the pillow. He hated being pregnant right now.
