Angelica stared blankly at the room across the hall, which would now become their baby's room.

They had decided to decorate it a unisex vibe thus their family had already started bringing things in. Mainly Jake.

Right now the room was filled with unpacked boxes that she hadn't even checked what they were and a recliner in the corner.

Everyone else has more baby fever than me..

She leaned her head against the doorway as she thought of different ways to decorate the room, sighing as she came up with nothing.

"Sunghoon!"

"Yeah?" He answered from upstairs as he put down his book.

"I have no creativity. You do this." She said as she walked down the hallway dragging her feet.

"What are you trying to do?" He chuckled as he watched her lay across the couch.

"I'm thinking of different ways to decorate the baby room but I can't think of anything." She whined but she suddenly stopped and lifted her head in shock.

"I haven't even told Yu Ahn. Isn't she home already?" She said hurriedly as she searched for her phone in the pockets of Sunghoon's big white hoodie that she loved to wear.

"She's gonna kill you." Sunghoon said as he turned back to his book.

*****

"How could you?! You're three months pregnant and I didn't know. Are we even friends?" Yu Ahn said dramatically after Angelica dropped the bomb.

"Of course we are. It's just I kind of forgot to tell you. You know how I am." Angelica said nervously.

"Oh but Jake gets to know as soon as you find out doesn't he?" She complained as she crossed her arms, sitting away from her on the couch.

"Well he's here all the time and he works with Sunghoon, of course he's gonna know faster than you." Angelica defended as she shook her head.

"Plus she likes him better." Sunghoon nonchalantly spit facts as he still sat upstairs reading his book.

"Shut up Avatar." Angelica said as Sunghoon smiled softly.

"Whatever. It's fine. Your baby is going to be so cute!" She squealed as she grabbed Angelica's hands in excitement. "He's got a father that looks like he came straight from a magazine."

Angelica furrowed her eyebrows as she was offended.

"Everyone always mentions Sunghoon as the only one with good genes. What about me?" She mumbled as she frowned.

"Meh. You're okay."

"This is why I like Jake better. He would call me beautiful." Angelica said as she removed her hands from Yu Ahn's and crossed her arms.

"Not under my eyes he won't." Sunghoon raised his eyebrows as he shook his head.

Angelica giggled softly as she sat up, grabbing Yu Ahn by her wrist and pulled her to the baby room.

"Help me." Angelica whispered desperately as they stared at the boxes laying about.

"See? If you would've told me earlier, you would've had a pretty room even before Sunghoon decided to stick his-"

"Yu Ahn! Language." Angelica interrupted as she felt heat rise up her neck at her sudden use of words.

"What? It's true." She laughed as she walked into the room, checking boxes one by one. "Where should we start?"

*****

They had been unpacking things for a while.

Turns out Jake had even gotten them a crib which Angelica thought was too early to get all these things.

Sunghoon had come downstairs to help them and he was sitting in a corner on the light brown recliner, reading through the instruction book for the crib that they had already finished building.

Angelica looked at him in amusement as she sat on the floor with Yu Ahn, organizing what they still need, which wasn't much thanks to 'Uncle Jake'.

"Why are you still reading that Burj Khalifa?"

He shrugged as he set it down.

"I thought I should be doing something." He said with a small smile as he leaned back on the chair.

"You better get used to that chair, because there will be long sleepless nights on there." Yu Ahn said as she shook her head.

Sunghoon smiled as he pulled the lever, putting his feet up.

"I love Jake." He said with a relaxed sigh as he closed his eyes.

Angelica laughed softly as she looked around the room.

It was practically fully furnished and it only needed to be decorated, which Yu Ahn said she was going to take care of.

She specifically said: 'You have no creative bone in your body and if I let you do this it will end up looking like a disheveled 1 star hotel reception room.'

"We need to do a party for Jake." Angelica said with a chuckled and Yu Ahn rolled her eyes.

"What about me?" Yu Ahn complained.

"You too Bubs, you too."

"That's my name, she's not allowed to use it." Sunghoon mentioned childishly as he grinned at her.

Angelica sighed as she shook her head, laying down on the carpeted floor.

"I need to go home. It's like 12am." Yu Ahn said as she gasped after checking her phone. "I was supposed to meet up with Steven at the club. Love you!" She yelled at Angelica as she walked out of the room in a hurry.

"Love you!" Angelica answered as she shook her head, hearing the front door slam shut.

She placed a hand through her hair as she stared up at the ceiling, tears starting to weld up for an unknown reason.

Sunghoon stood up from the chair and laid next to her on the floor.

He turned on his side as he stared at the side of her face. He watched the tears fall down, and softly wiped them with his thumb.

Angelica only chuckled as she turned to look at him with bright eyes.

"We really are having a baby, aren't we?"

For some reason, now that the room was halfway set, reality was kicking in.

She really was pregnant. She was having a baby that would need all of her undivided attention. She will have a child that will call her mom and grow from a baby to an adult.

That baby will carry their name into generations and then they'll be old wrinkly grandparents.

"We are." He said softly as he smiled.

Angelica looked back towards the ceiling as her face contorted.

"We should get cute star lights." She sobbed and Sunghoon let out a laugh, turning to look at the ceiling.

"Yeah we should."

Sunghoon sat up suddenly as he heard a noise from the living room.

Angelica looked at him wiping her tears as she was startled and Sunghoon only placed his finger to his mouth, signaling her to be quiet.

He swiftly stood up and walked towards the door, which was halfway open.

He subtly stuck his head to look and gestured for Angelica to stay where she was.

He quickly walked across the hall to their room, and looked under the bed, to grab the gun that was hidden there.

Stealthily walking ahead with a bite of his lip, he saw feet moving about the living room.

Who the fuck is in our house?

Sunghoon steadily aimed his gun as he walked out of the room, pointing it at the person and quickly being caught off guard.
