Kirstie POV
I grabbed the pregnancy test with shaky hands. Three years of all natural, and somehow now there is a potential of me being pregnant. Positive. I throw it away, and pull out the spare, and do it again. Positive. Positive. Positive. Positive.
"A-Avi?" I call. He comes in, and sees the pregnancy test.
"Are you?" he says. I nod, and his brow furrows. Tears well in my eyes, and Avi wraps his arms around my waist.
"I did more than one. I am pregnant," I sob, and Avi kisses the top of my head.
"Why are you crying?" Avi whispers in my ear.
"I don't even know!" I laugh.
"I'm gonna be a dad!" Avi spins me around, and I laugh.
"Lets make an appointment, just to make sure," I say.
"Ok, I'll go do it," Avi walks into the office. "Thursday."
"Tomorrow!" I laugh.
"We're going to be parents!" Avi kissed me long and hard.
"I love you," I smile, and he kissed my nose.
"I love you more than anything I've ever loved anything else."
"How's work?" I smile, and he smiles right back.
"Well, a choir director's work never seizes to be surprising," he rocks us back and forth.
"Do you ever miss Pentatonix?" I look into his eyes.
"We're still friends, just now we aren't famous anymore," he kisses my cheek.
"When are we going to tell your students I'm pregnant?" I smile.
"When we find out for sure," he says, and kisses my jawline gently.
"I'm going to go make dinner," I smile, and make some baked chicken with mayo and mozzarella on top. We eat in pleasant silence, and go to bed.

I wake up, and make Avi some oatmeal. He smiles at me, and he kisses my cheek.
"Mrs. Kaplan, I have to go to work. However, I will be there for your appointment."
"You just love calling me that, huh?"
"Yes babe. Bye!" He waves, and is out the door. I go and get dressed. I think about where we would put the baby. We have an extra bedroom. We could paint it orange. Yeah, orange. We would fill it with shelves with books, and cute little giraffes and elephants. Oh, I'm so excited. Avi comes into the door, and leads me to the car. We get to the hospital, and unlucky us, a student spots him.
"Mr. Kaplan! Is this your wife?" a girl smiled at me.
"Yep. Flesh and blood Mrs. Kaplan," Avi smiles.
"I loved Pentatonix," she smiles at me. The nurse calls her, and she waves goodbye.
"Who was that?" I ask.
"Alto One Elizabeth. She was so excited when I walked in the first day," he laughs.
"Kaplan?" A nurse calls. We walk in. A female doctor walks in, and an ultrasound is done.
"Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Kaplan. You're pregnant," she smiles.
"Will you be our doctor?" I ask.
"Of course," she smiled. We walked out. My family was having a gathering. We would tell them then. Avi's family on Sunday, and the band today.
"So, boys, we have news," we announce. Scott and Isabella look at us, Kevin cocks his head, and a smile spreads on Mitch's lips.
"You aren't?" Mitch smirks.
"I am," I laugh.
"I'm gonna be an uncle!" he screeches. Scott, just understanding the situation, spins his daughter around. Everyone is laughing and smiling, and we discuss what we'll do.

When I wake up ready to see Avi's family, I run to the toilet. Avi comes behind, and holds my hair back.
"You okay?" Avi kisses my head after I am done puking.
"Just fine, it's just the fetus placed in my womb," I sass.
"Kiss your sass, huh?"
"Dang straight," I place a hand on my hip, and go to get dressed. Avi leaves for work, and I get started. I'm the director of all the plays at the local theatre group. We have tons of talented artists, and I can't wait until they are older. I look through program after program, finally deciding on 'Once Upon a Mattress'. I feel worn out by this simple task, so I sit on the couch and take a little nap. When I wake up, I do some laundry and begin dinner. Avi comes home a little later than normal.
"Sorry I'm so late, the Madrigals wanted to talk about you," he kissed my cheek.
"Did you tell them?" I hold his hand.
"No, that's what we do together. And besides, I want you to see the look on their faces," he laughs, and eats dinner. After that, we turn in early, and cuddle all night long.
