Love Drunk 3.0 (Completed)

Chapter 57

L.A. 6 p.m.
Ethan POV –

“I’m so happy for you, Ethan.” Ava says as we take the dancefloor. I smile at her watery eyes. “I remember you, 10 years old, running around in the backyard naked. During your annual snow run.” She chuckles and that memory makes me laugh out loud. “But look at you now. Fully clothed. Married to Y/n.” She laughs. “You’re blessed!” Ava adds. I chuckle at her words. “I am blessed! But are you referring to when you saw me running around naked? Or are you referring to me marrying y/n?” I laugh. Ava slaps my arm hard. “Eewww, Ethan!” She laughs. “I hope for y/n that you’ve grown a bit since the last time I saw you naked.” Ava continues and I let go of her waist to flip her off, inches from her face.

“Just kidding!” She laughs again. “I’ve heard you two going at it, the entire neighbourhood heard you two. I’m sure she doesn’t have any complains about your size.” Ava chuckles. “You heard us? Are these words coming from you?! One half of the ‘I have sex everywhere’ duo!” I laugh at her. “What are you two trying to do?” I ask her, deliberately setting up my first poke! “With that amount of sex, it seems like you’re trying to make a baby!” I add and Ava’s expression changes immediately to one of shock. Got ya!! Is what I think and I smile satisfied. I look over at Grayson and y/n on the other side of the dancefloor and see Y/n’s smiling face. Grayson on the other hand starts turning red. Seems like she gave him the first blow as well.

When I look back over at Ava I see she redeemed herself. Doesn’t seem like she’s gonna admit anything right now. So why not take this to the next level. “Let’s grab you and y/n a nice cocktail from the cocktail bar.” I say as I study Ava’s facial expression again. “You both love cocktails, but haven’t had any yet! What is it you always drink? A gin tonic rose? Gin tonic Christmas tree?” I laugh as I try to come up with her drink order. “Oh no, thanks!” Ava quickly says. “I just had a drink already.” She adds as she looks at Grayson who now has beats of sweat dripping down his face. “Shit!” Ava whispers under her breath as she sees her boyfriend clearly struggling. I’m having a hard time keeping a straight face and smirk. “What’s wrong?” I ask her as we start dancing closer to Grayson and y/n.

Grayson is looking around for help and seems to have found it as soon as he locks eyes with Ava. He let’s go of y/n and walks up to us, pulling y/n behind him. His cheeks are bright red and he is sweating profusely. “I can’t do it! I can’t do it!” He yells at Ava. “I can’t lie and I want sex!” He says just loud enough for the four of us to hear. “I want it all!” Grayson breathes as he brushes his hands through his hair. I high five my beautiful bride and we start laughing. Mission accomplished! “I’m not sure about the sex, Grayson!” Ava says as her eyes shoot fire at him. She grabs y/n by her hand and leads her away from the crowd. Grayson forcefully grabs my arm with his clammy hands and pulls me along, behind Ava and Y/n. We end up in a secluded lounge.

The lounge where Y/n swapped her chapel dress for her party dress earlier. Ava closes the door behind us and helps y/n sit down in her dress. The sound of the music and celebrating crowd is muffled and seems far away. I sit down next to y/n and we both stare at Ava and Grayson. Ava with watery eyes again and Grayson nervously shifting his weight from one leg to the other while he plays with his fingers. “What is going on with the two of you?” I ask them. They look at each other and Grayson wipes away the tears from Ava’s face. “We- We need to tell you guys something.” Gray softly says. “We know!” Y/n joins the conversation. Encouraging them to speak up. “What do you know?” Ava now asks confused as she looks at Grayson. “Have you-..“ She asks Gray but gets interrupted by y/n.

“We know about the baby..” Y/n adds as she smiles at my brother and his girlfriend. “You do?!” Grayson now asks me stunned and I nod my head as I get up to hug him. We embrace each other tight and as if someone was counting us off we both say: “Congratulations!” at the same time. I hold Gray at arms length. He does the same with me. “What?!” He says confused. “What are you congratulating me for?” He now asks me with this puzzled look on his face. “With your baby?” I slowly say as I look from Gray, to y/n and over to Ava. The ruffling sound of y/n’s dress reveals that she got up and walks up to us. “We know you and Ava are having a baby..” Y/n explains to Gray and his face turns pale. “Wait, what?!” He mumbles as he immediately looks at Ava.

It’s complete chaos in this room. We’re all looking at each other in bewilderment. But no one seems to be able to create any structure in this mess until Ava steps in. “Gray, stop looking at me like that!” She says. “We are not having a baby! You know I’m on birth control.” She says as she lovingly squeezes him at the nape of his neck. Those words seem to help him regain his posture again and the colour returns to his face. “Y/n..” Ava continues as Grayson still holds me at my shoulders. “You gave me your phone..” She continues and I see y/n nod slowly. “Your doctor called with the blood results, right before the ceremony.” Ava adds. I let go of Gray’s shoulder and put my arm around y/n’s waist, to pull her close to me. I can’t tell if Ava is gonna deliver us some good news, or if she is gonna crush my world in to pieces.

“You and Ethan-.. “ Ava says as tears fill her eyes. She clears her throat. “You and Ethan, you are having a baby. You’re pregnant!” she adds as tears stream down her face again. I hear Y/n gasp and I see Grayson blinking his eyes rapidly to keep his tears at bay, but it doesn’t seem to work. It feels like my heart just stopped beating and my entire body is tingling. I’m breathing rapidly and feel overwhelmed with love. Endless and unconditional love. “You two are having a baby!” Ava cries and I pull y/n into a hug. I can’t help it but feel tears well up in my eyes as well as I pull away from the hug and look at y/n’s face. We lock eyes and within a split second my love for her multiplies by a million. That’s the love of my life. The mother of my children. “We’re having a baby..” I breathe as I gently rest my head against hers.

I hear her sniffling and slowly kiss her smiling face. Y/n places one hand on her stomach. I place my hand over hers and let our fingers intertwine as I pull away from her lips. Ava places her hand on Y/n’s stomach and Gray does as well. Y/n smiles wide through her tears. “We’re having a baby..” she repeats after me.
