"Mommy!!!" Addison screamed in my ear. I got up. "What Beetle?" I asked already knowing the answer. "Did Santa come?" She asked hopeful. "I don't know, you should ask daddy." I smiled. She ran to the other side of the bed and tapped on Steven's nose. He sighed and smiled. "Yes Addison?" He asked. She giggled. "Did Santa come?' She asked eager. "I don't know love bug. Want to go check?" He asked sitting up and putting on his glasses. She jumped up and down. "Olivia must already be with Lucas. I'll go get the triplets." I said to him as he picked her up and carried out of the room. I grabbed Grayson, and I walked into the triplet's room. "Come on boys. Santa came!" I said waking them. All three of them shot up and ran past me. My mom and dad were not in there room, so I assumed that they were already down stairs. I walked down stairs with Grayson in hand, and I sat on the couch. "Who's playing bitch?" Dad asked. I laughed. Every year since I was 6, my dad used to say that who passed out presents, was 'playing bitch.' "I will." Steven said laughing. Addison came and sat on the floor next to me and waited patiently for Steven to hand her a present that had her name on it. Once he did she tore into and I took pictures. She was really into Mickey Mouse, and Minnie Mouse. So of course Santa brought her all things Mickey and Minnie. Her eyes lit up and she giggled. "Mommy! Look! Santa bought me a Minnie Mouse Dolly!" She said hugging it. I teared up, and smiled. "I'm glad you like it. I will tell Santa you said thanks!" I said ruffling her head of blonde hair. Steven handed me a present for Grayson and I let him try and open it. He grabbed the paper and he tried to rip it open. I helped him open it. It was a truck that sang the alphabet. Once the kids were done opening their presents, I set mine aside, to help Steven bring the kids toys up to our room. "Why haven't you opened any of yours yet?" He asked. I shrugged. "Today's not about me. It's about the kids. I was too focused on watching Addison light up every time there was something involving Minnie Mouse." I smiled. He nodded. We walked down stairs and I sat down to open my gifts. I got a couple of sweaters from my mom, a necklace from Lucas, and a new phone case from my dad. I picked up Steven's present and it smelled like Sunflowers. I smiled. It was a long box. I opened it and there was single Sunflower in the box along with a pair of earrings. I picked up the note and read it. 'Hopefully these match your dress, so you can wear them on January 15th 2016.' I smiled. I looked over at him and smiled. "They will go perfect with my dress thank you." I said kissed his cheek. Addison brought me over her flower that she got from her Uncle Lucas and asked me to set it up. "I'm sure your favorite Uncle Lou would love to set up the toy for you." I said looking at Lucas who was eating toast. "Sure. Come here sweetie." He smiled. I laughed. "I was kidding. I can do it." I said feeling guilty. He laughed. "I don't mind." He said assuring me. I nodded. Steven and I were getting married in less than one month. January 15th was the day that Steven asked me to be his girlfriend back in middle school. "Octive was my Maid of honor and our best man was Lucas. Pat, Brian, and Tristen were our groomsmen. I had my Aunt Jenna, my cousin Kiki, and my friend Taylor as bridesmaids. And of course our kids were going to be the flower girl, and ring bearer. Everything was all set, except for the bridesmaids dresses. I had them all picked out, until the company stopped selling them. My color is a deep silver, and I let the girls pick out what style dress they wore as long as they were floor length. I couldn't wait to marry the love of my life. Things were going really well, Steven lets me check his phone at the end of the day even though I never asked him too. He is proving to me that he is worth fighting for even though he made mistakes. Although, I feel bad that I haven't told him about Tristen and I, but it never came up. Steven made me breakfast and he brought it too me. "I have to go see my parents. I will be back soon." He said grabbing his keys. I nodded. "Love you." He said walking out the door. "Love you too sweetie." I replied. I gave Addison some of my breakfast know, that if I tried to give her, her own plate she'd refuse it. I didn't feel very well today, and I wasn't sure why. I felt sick to my stomach and everything I ate made it worse. I set my plate aside and I went upstairs and sat on the bathroom floor. My mom came up to check on me once she noticed I was gone. "Sweetie? You alright?" She asked. "Yeah mom. Just feeling a little sick." I explained. She opended up the door. "Are you pregnant?" She asked. I froze. "No. I can't be." I said. She nodded. But it did feel like the morning sickness that I have experienced with both of my pregnancies. "Have you and Steven had sex?" She asked hesitating. I shook my head and hung it in shame. "No, but when we weren't together, Tristen and I did." I said having having to swallow back tears. She sighed. "Amelia." She said helping me up. "But I promise we used protection. I promise. So there's no way." I explained. She nodded. I knew that she believed me, and would help me through this. "But does Steven know this?" She asked. I shook my head. "No." I cried. She called Steven and told him to get here quickly. It only took him 10 minutes to get here, and she left us alone. "What's going on?" He asked climbing into bed with me. "There is something I need to tell you." I said trying not to cry. I sat up and explained everything to him. "So you think your pregnant with Tristen's baby?" He asked. I shook my head. "I don't think so, we used protection. I promise. But I am experiencing the same morning sickness I did with both of the kids." I said now crying. He sighed. "So, now what? You want to go to the doctor?" He asked trying to process everything out. I nodded. "But there is nothing opening today. It's Christmas." I explained. He nodded. "We will go first thing in the morning." He stated. I nodded, and I put my head into his chest and cried. "Steven... Do you hate me? What if I am pregnant?" I asked muffled into his sweatshirt. He shrugged. "If you are, we;ll figure that out later. Right now I want you to know that I could never hate you Em. I can't even be angry because you weren't cheating on me. We weren't together." He said rubbing my back. I sighed. "I just want to be alone." I said getting up and walking into the bathroom to shower. He got up and slammed the door. I got a text a few seconds later.
Steven- I'm leaving. Want me to take the kids?
