Grayson- 39 weeks

Asher's POV

"Hey Asherrrr how ya feeling" Em sings jumping over the couch, landing next to me. I hid my face in my hands already embarrassed, knowing where this conversation would go.  "We really don't need to talk about last week at all" I let my hands fall to my lap giving her a big smile hoping she would agree.

"What happen last week?" she chuckles as the confusion really starts to hit. "When my meds made me... oh you're tricking me! Stoppp!" I finally catch on crossing my arms. Before she can say anything the tiny twins catch her attention yelling "Emwald" as they ran down the hall.

"What's up" she smiles staring at the two. Imani used all her strength to pull herself up on the couch, just to whisper into Emerald's ear. The face Em made of shock freaked me out a bit.

Helping the toddler back down, she then sprints down the hall. I lean over to the twins "what's wrong?" I ask, both look towards each other putting a finger to their mouth to stay silent. "He will help us find kitty" Isla whispers into her sister's ear loud enough for me to hear. I give them a concerned and worried look.

"He will?" Imani turns to her sister tugging at her hair. "Yes" Isla nods and they both turn to me grabbing at my hands. "Help us! Kitty missing!" Imani shouts Isla nodding and pulling me forward.

Both of them lead me straight to Em's room where the panicking blond was throwing stuff left and right.  "Zuzu!" She shouts in a panic as I step into the room with the twins.  "Come to mommy!" She whispers in a panic lifting her pillows.

"Em? Are you okay? You know I can h-" she cuts me off holding her finger up to silence me as the twins grab my legs with worry. "Shh, I think I hear her!" She mumbles looking around again. I go quiet and not even a second later you can hear the faintest purr.

Emerald whips herself around and goes to a pile of clothes she had thrown. "Zuzu!" She cries in happiness picking up the tiny animal. My eyes widen in shock once I realize what was going on.

Zuzu

"It's a kitten!" I shout the obvious rushing over to her the twins laughing and following

"It's a kitten!" I shout the obvious rushing over to her the twins laughing and following. "She's so cute" I continue gushing over the cute little thing.  "Can I hold it!?" I ask and she nods handing me the kitten. It stretches out in my hands before I bring it to my chest. Using my finger to pet its tiny head.

Sitting down, Isla and Imani run over to me one on each side peering at the kitten. "Her name's Zuzu?" I ask looking up to Em who was having a proud parent moment. "Yup! Found her in a box and have been raising her for 3 weeks" she smiles while I go back to cooing at the kitten.

"I'm assuming nobody knows about her" I chuckle, her face dropping.  "Nope," she sighs slouching over.  "I'm keeping her though- so Dad, Papa if Zuzu goes I go!" She stomps her foot, standing her ground.
