"It's a girl! Danny, we're having a girl!" Jessica hugged him tightly.

"A little baby Princess! I knew it!"

Jessica giggles.
Danny then places his hands on her small bump and speaks to his baby girl.

"Hello Princess! It's daddy! I love you so so much, cutie pie!  I can't wait to meet you!"

"Aw you're so sweet!"

"Jessica you are perfect. You are the most perfect person I have ever met! Thank you for making our little Princess."

"Danny you're gonna make me cry!"

"I just want you to know how much I love and appreciate you."

"You're such an amazing man, Daniel Huston.
I love you so so much."

"I'm the luckiest man ever."

"You sure are! You have two girls who are just crazy about you!" Jessica smiles.

"WOO!" Danny shouts before kissing her lips.

Two days later.

"Ready for another Covid test, babe?"

"Not really, but Sarah's worth it!  Let's just get it over with."

Danny then pulls in and waits for someone to walk up to the car.

Jessica places her hands on her stomach and whines. "Ohhhh I'm nervous!"

Danny chuckles and lightly scratches his fingers on her belly.

"Baby girl is a poppin!"

"Yeah she just grew over night, didn't she?"

"She did! So cute. I can't wait until you're huge!"

Jessica laughs. "Imagine how I'll look on my zoom classes. The camera already adds ten pounds!"

"You're going to be the most beautiful pregnant lady ever!"

"Aw thank you, smoosh. Oh look, somebody's coming!"

"Here we go!" Danny lifts his mask and rolls the window down.

Danny was tested first. When it was Jessica's turn she reached over and grabbed Danny's hand.

She squeezed it tighter and tighter as she grew more and more uncomfortable.

Once she was finished she let out a dramatic sighs and laid her head back.

"Oh my goodness!" Danny laughs. "You okay?"

"Barely!" Jessica sniffles.

"So dramatic!"

That evening.

"Honey, how do I look? I'm gonna tell my class I'm pregnant tonight."

"Aw you look cute!"

"You think?" Jessica smiles.

"Yeah! I missed seeing you in those little outfits."

"Well I had to hide the poor baby cause I wasn't ready to tell them about her yet. But I'm ready now and she definitely is!" Jessica looks down and laughs at her belly just poking out.

"She sure is! Do you want me to go in there? Maybe they want to meet the man that helped build that bump."

Jessica laughs. "Nah, I think us girls are okay on our own."
