"Gusion!" I shouted hoping he'd hear me in his slumber.

A muffled 'yes?' was his reply.

"I'm going out for a while can you make sure tonight's dinner doesn't burn?"

A drowsy Gusion appeared in the doorway. His hair was sticking up all over the place. I found it cute and adorable.

Chuckling I walked up to him and smoothed down his hair.

"Where are you going?" He said a little pout on his face. His hands moved to my waist pulling me into him.

I giggled "Groceries." I said pinching his nose and giving it a little shake.

He leaned in and kissed my cheek "Come back soon love."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Sis!" A familiar voice shouted behind me.

I lowered the apple I was looking at and turned my head. Harley was running towards me with our mother in tow.

"Harley! Don't run in the store!" She shouted after him.

Harley came crashing into me in a big hug while our mother came towards us out of breath huffing.

"Sweetie What are you doing here?" She asked giving me a tired smile while prying Harley off me.

I returned the smile and patted a pouting Harley on the head "I'm just picking up a few things for dinner."

"Have you told him yet?" She gave me a knowing smile and raised her brow

I laughed and shook my head "No he's still in the dark about it."

"Mom What are you talking about?" Harley asked giving both of us a confused looked.

"Oh your sister will tell you when she's ready." She chuckled

"Fine..." Harley said a upset look crossing his face.

"Harley." I bent down to his level "I promise I will tell you after I've told Gusion. It's something important for both of us."

He nodded in understandingly albeit still a bit sulky.

"Alright let's leave your sister to it Harley." Mrs.Vance said pulling Harley along.

"Sis you better visit soon!" He shouted as he was being dragged away.

I giggled and nodded

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I opened the door to my home and shut it behind me.

Footsteps could be heard coming towards me. Gusion came out to greet me taking the bags I was carrying and planting a small kiss on my cheek.

"What took so long?"

"I've only been away for 30 minutes." I chuckled returning the kiss.

"30 minutes is long love." He sighed walking to the kitchen.

"If you think that's long you'll have to wait longer for your surprise." I retorted

I followed him setting my keys on the table and grabbing the apron that I had lazily tossed on the table earlier.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Our conversation during dinner somehow drifted to the topic of fathers. He didn't have much to say about his so the conversation was mostly about mine. I started teasing him about how'd he'd be as a father.

"Hey I don't think I'd be bad as a father. Would I?" He said with a bit uncertainty.

"You'll be just fine." I chuckled

"You think so?"

"I do. And I think this little one will agree." I said rubbing my hand over my stomach.

He gave me a confused look.

I sigh and facepalm. He was so dense. "Gusion I'm pregnant."

His face morphed from confusion to shock "R-Really?" He stood up from his seat his eyes lit it up with joy as he made his way toward me.

I laugh and nod "Yes silly."

He wrapped his arms around me and pulled me into a tight embrace and whispered "Best surprise ever."

"Happy father's day love."
