Mary stands behind her husband with a candle and a wide smile. "We're sorry to interrupt, Bash has no manners."
Anne and Gilbert jump from each other, embarrassment painting their features. "We- uh- we just- "
Mary puts a gentle hand up, "There's no need to explain. Trust me, we've been rooting for this longer than the two of you have." Bash laughs in agreement.
The two teens look at one another, small smiles on their faces.
"But, since we have the two of you here, we have something important to tell you." Mary smiles at the trepidation on their faces, "Nothing bad- actually pretty good- I, Bash?"
Her husband smiles and settles a hand on her stomach, "Miss Anne, Blythe, Mary and I are gonna have a baby."
The kitchen is filled with Annes squeal of joy and excited laughter. Gilbert rushes to Bash, giving his friend a big hug and pat on the back.
Anne holds Mary's hands in hers, "How long have you known?"
"Not long," Mary assures her, "I had my suspicions. Which is why Bash and I had to leave for a few days. We went to town to see if I was correct."
Bash squeezes Gilbert's shoulder, "You're gonna be an uncle, Blythe." This brings a wide grin to the ravenet's face, "I'm going to be an uncle!"
Gilbert pulls the four of them into a big hug, his hand resting on Anne's lower back, a promise to her and himself that they will talk.
Everything in this moment is perfect.
The end.
