Chapter 3
I wake up the next day in my bed. I sit up and hear laughing coming from the kitchen. I rub my sleepy eyes.
Hey!... I got some sleep! Thanks pregnancy.
I waddle over to the kitchen to meet my family. "Hi guys!"
"Hi Sencen!" Keefe smirks.
I role my eyes. " Hi Hunkyhair"
This time Kenric rolls his eyes. "Stop with the pet names! It's gross!"
"Never my-" I pause thinking of something "-Angel..." I grin.
Kenric laughs turning beat red.
"What about me mommy?" Amy asks with big eyes
"Cupcake..." I say slowly then repeat with more confidence. "Cupcake."
The girl giggles She smiles taking another bite of mallowmelt.
"Keefe!" I screech turning to him. "Why are you giving them mallowmelt at like eight am?"
"Um.. Darling... It's already one pm.." he says suppressing a grin. I look at the time and sure enough its already one.
"Oh! Sorry.. I better get dressed. We have to leave soon." I say walking away. I grab a flowy turquoise maternity dress. I take my pjs off and slide the dress on. After I brush my hair.
"Mommy" Amy calls through the door.
"Yes Cupcake?" I call back struggling to get the dress on.
"Can you help me grab my dress from the closet?"
"Can you ask Daddy?" I yell.
"Ok!" I hear footsteps as she runs away. After I have the dress on I go meet Amy. She's wearing a poofy pink dress.
"Who bought you that dress?" I ask with raised eyebrow.
She looks at the dress then giggles. "Auntie Biana!"
"Sounds abought right" I pick her up and walk to the door were Keefe and Kenric are waiting. I take Keefe's free hand with my free hand. He leaps us to Linh and Marella's house.
"Very sparkly" Keefe whispers to me.
"Very Linh" I whisper back putting Amy down. The kids run to the house a girl about eleven years old with ash hair and pale grey-blue eyes greet them. Beside the girl is a boy about six years old with coppery colored hair and teal eyes.
"Hi Caprise! Hi Rowen!" Kenirc calls.
"Hi guys! Where's Ally and Ava?" Amy asks.
"Inside." The ash haired girl answers.
Keefe and I watch the kids run away. "Do we want to guess who's kid is who?" I ask Keefe.
"Yes." Keefe says. "Rowen is Bianas because I remember saying one time that she wants to banoher future some Rowen. Carprise is Linh and Marella's and Ally and Ava? No idea."
"Who do we think Biana married?" I ask.
"Dex." Keefe says. "Did you see that kid? He looks just like Dex, except Bianas eyes."
"Your not wrong." I say as we walk into the living room.
There are four couches surrounding a coffee table. Fitz is sitting on the far couch his arm around Stina whos holding a baby with brown curls and teal eyes.
My jaw drops fast but I close it faster. Didn't expect that couple.
I awkwardly sit down on one of the empty couches Keefe sits down beside me he doesn't let go of my hand but I'm not complaining.
"Hey Soph! " Stina grins
"Uh.. Hi?" I say with a forced smile. This feels so weird.
Biana is sitting next to Dex they each have a child on their lap. Bianas kid is about two with strawberry blond hair and teal eyes the other child, Dex's kid is also about two withq brown hair and perrywinkle eyes.
"Hi Sophie" Dex says braiding the girls hair.
"Ava! Ally!" Amy yells running into the room climbing onto my lap.
"oh ok.." I say pulling her up so she doesn't fall . Linh and Marella walk into the room.
"So Sophie. Did you find out babys gender?" Linh asks.
"Yea is everyone here though?" Keefe asks. "Where Bangs boy?"
"I'm right here" Tam says appearing behind Linh.
"Holy!" I yelp with a jump. "You just... Appeared."
"I do that sometimes." Tam shrugs. "So lets hear."
"We're having another girl!" Keefe announces"
" Oh my gosh Congratulations!" Biana squeals Dex hold Ally for me." She hands Dex the child then moves over and gives me a gentle hug. "I'm so happy for you! This is so exciting! I need to get presents!"
"Thanks Bi" I grin.
She walks back to her spot with Dex. Six of the kids go running downstairs. The only one that stays is Stina and Fitz's baby, Tulina.
"So Sophie how is the pregnancy going?" Biana asks.
"Well... I'm getting more sleep..." I admit.
"Well that's good! I could barely ever sleep when I was pregnant with the twins" Biana says.
"When I was pregnant with Caprise I could sleep normally" Marella says.
"Same" Stina notes.
"So... Anyway..." Thankfully Amy chooses that time to come running in.
"Mommy! Daddy! I'm hungry! When are we eating!?" She asks climbing into my lap again.
"I dunno kiddo" Keefe shrugs."Ask Linh and Marella.
"Well foods ready right now we could eat now" Linh suggests.
"Ok!" Amy runs back to the kids and yells "supper!"
The six kids come running upstairs into the kitchen. I stand up and follow gripping Keefe's hand to keep from toppling over.
"I'm never going to get used to pregnancy" I tell him.
"I'm sure you will" he kisses the top of my head. We walk to the kitchen. My mouth waters when I see the food. Linh and Biana help their kids get food.
"What would you like?" I ask Amy holding a empty plate.
She points to the starflower stew. I grab a bowl and give her some stew. Then I pour myself a bowl. Amy takes her bowl upstairs with the rest of the kids I walk back to the living room and sit down with my bowl. I inhale it.
"It's almost as good as Callas..." I mumble tearing up. I whip my eyes. "Stupid hormones"
"It'll be just fine" Keefe says with a smirk.
We eat and talk till we start to get tired we pack up and head home I immediately change into my PJs and climb into bed Keefe soon follows. I snuggle closer, his arm wraps around me. We drift off to sleep.
