"Liar. I know that look. Spill." Genevieve sits down on the couch, attentively listening.
"Ok, ok. Well I had a check up yesterday & everything was normal."
"Uh-huh."
"I'm pregnant!" Genevieve's face lights up.
"No way! Are you serious?" 

"Very serious", Tony says as he sits next to her. He holds up the sonogram so she can see.
"Oh my god! It's a little baby Stark! Oh my god, guys! Congratulations! I'm gonna be an auntie! Yes!"
Kristina & Tony chuckle.
"I'm thrilled for you, Kris. Oh shit, you know what this means? I'm moving to New York."

"Viev, you don't need to do that."
"Uh, yes I do. Majority of my family is in NY. Plus my sister from another mister is having a baby. I should be there not across the country."
"Viev, that's sweet but.."
"You're more than welcome to stay at the Tower with us if you'd like", Tony interrupts.

"I appreciate the gesture but I want to try to find my own place. But thanks, Tony. That's amazing for you to offer. That baby's going to need a bedroom in my house. Have you told Peter?"
"Not yet."
"Well do it soon. I'm gonna let you two go so I can shower. But congratulations again. I'm so excited for you", she says happily.

"Thanks girl. I love you."
"I love you, too. Bye." They hang up.
"Tell you what. Call Peter, go out to eat & I'll stay here with your dad. I hear him in the backyard."
"Tony, I don't..." He kisses her.
"Just do it. You know how awkward it's going to be. Let's just get it out the way."
"Are you absolutely sure?"

"Yeah. So go. It'll just be more awkward if I'm there. I mean, we're not exactly best friends."

"Hey. Um, you're still in town right?"
"Yeah. Why? What's up?"
"Want to meet me for brunch?"
