Warnings: mentions of pregnancy, fluff, tiny bit of angst.
I sat on the closed toilet lid my leg shaking up and down nervously, Sarah held the pregnancy test as she leaned her back against the countertop.
"Just two minutes" I groaned reading the time on my watch out loud just two minutes I reminded myself.
A nervousness crept through my chest and up my throat my hands began to tremble with tears trying to appear.
The house was silent whilst Cassie napped I tilted my head up staring at the ceiling patiently. Sarah spoke quietly her small words of wisdom hoping to comfort ourselves.
I stood up hastily choosing to walk around the large room, time felt slow as we waited for the results.
"I want a boy" Sarah whispered cheerfully "Luke?" I asked "lucky Luke?" I added, "because he had to race against the other sperm?" Sarah laughed.
"That's not funny" I wheezed hitting her shoulder "ouch" Sarah cried before laughing harder "I'm sorry" she surrendered.
I gazed back down at my watch "and time" I called "pregnant" Sarah muttered happily as tears welled in her eyes.
"Pregnant?" I cried happily flinging myself into her arms.
9 months down
"It's a boy" the doctor announced as Beverly looked at Sarah tiredly with a small smile.
"Lucky Luke"
Beverly laughed tearfully as she held the small boy in her bare arms the baby's head cradled on her naked chest.
Sarah leaned in brushing her fingers over his soft head "hi baby, I'm your mama" she whispered proudly as she cried softly.
"And this beautiful woman is your mommy, you've got a big sister who's excited to meet you." Beverly felt her heart melt at this "her name is Cassiopeia but we all call her Cassie".

"Mum?" Luke asked patiently as he stood by his parent's bed Beverly hummed half asleep "up?" He questioned quietly.
Beverly nodded before pulling him into her arms resting the boy between herself and Sarah. The bed soon dipped as a certain blonde climbed onto her parent's bed too.
Kissing their heads before Sarah got up for work Luke laughed slightly before curling himself into Beverly's side.
"I love you too" the brunette muttered sadly as the blonde left without so much as a word.
Ever since their son, things had shifted Beverly felt an almost resentment towards her own child.
Beverly felt guilty, for everything.
Luke looked at his mum confused as she began to cry, Cassie tugged on his arm slightly a silent way of telling him to leave.
"It's okay mummy" the two-year-old lisped as he placed his small palms to rest on his mother's tired face causing her to smile sadly.
"Thank you, I love you. Both of you" she said pulling both children into her arms.
It's okay she thought to herself it will all be okay.
