---Alivia

Back home, my mom and dad walked over just as Riley pulled into the driveway.  My dad helped me out of the car.  "I have been placed on bedrest."

"Why's that?"  he asked.

"High blood pressure."  I said.

"Doc's orders."  he said.

My mom was sitting in the recliner.  "So?"

"We're having twins.  That's all I'm saying for right now."  I said.

"Twins?  Wow. so are Brad and Jeana."  Riley came in.

"Tisha's on her way over with my mom and dad.  Ali, don't take anything she gives to you okay?"  Riley said.

"I'm stressed out enough."  I said with a groan.

Tisha arrived and gave me her usual glare.  Riley took his place beside me.  "I've tried calling you.  I need rides home from work."

"I've been busy taking care of my pregnant wife and the girls."  he said.

"So it doesn't have anything to do with you not wanting me in your life anymore."

"You set that up yourself.  You nearly killed Alivia."  he snapped.

"She's still here isn't she?"  she said.  Riley stood up.

"Enough.  This yelling isn't good for Ali or the babies."  my mom said.

"Babies?"  Riley's mom asked.

"We're having twins."  I said.  She squealed with delight and hugged Riley then leaned in and gave me a hug.

"Boys?  Girls?"

"They won't say."  my mom said.

"I need stuff for the gender reveal party.  You'll find out Saturday."  I said.

"Two days?  We're grandmas we need to know these things."

"You can wait to find out."  I said.  "Last time we found out something bad happened."

"She has high blood pressure."  Riley said looking at his sister.

"Oh, you want me to leave?"  she said.

"You can stay just leave Alivia alone."  Riley said.

"Mama, will you do me a favor?"

"Sure honey."

"Riley brought stuff for smoothies will you make me one?"

"That sounds good."

"There's more than enough."  I said standing up.

"Ali, you're on bed rest."  Riley said.

"I know.  I have time on my feet too though."  I sat in the kitchen and my moms grabbed out the stuff for smoothies.  I sliced up some fresh fruit.  Riley came in and pressed a kiss to my cheek.

"I have to go pick up Sasha, Selena and Jasimine.  We'll be back after Jessica's soccer practice."

"Okay."  He gave me a kiss and grabbed his keys.

An hour later, we all were sitting on the back porch.  Riley's dog Chance and my puppy Luna were in the backyard playing with Bradley Jr. and Bradley Jr. the 3rd.  Our new neighbor walked over with her daughter Kenzie and she was about two months pregnant.  "Hey Alivia.  Kenzie really wanted to come see your new puppy."
