Alli's Perspective

I woke up without Keaton besides me. I pulled on a pair of his sweatpants over 

my shorts and looked myself over in the mirror. Hanging on it was a note from 

Keaton saying he was at the recording studio and that he'll be home for lunch. 

Smiling, I wobbled down the stairs. I was 2 months pregnant and my baby bump was 

prominent. Wesley was sitting at the table just staring into space. "Hey," I 

greeted him, opening the fridge. He didn't say anything. Wesley just stared at 

my stomach, clearly disgusted. "Why aren't you at the studio?" I tried to keep a 

light conversation between us. "So you really are pregnant," Wesley said, almost 

confirming this to himself. "With Keaton's baby," he mumbled under his breath. 

"Obviously," I laughed, gesturing to my stomach. "Alright what's wrong?" I 

prompted, setting my glass of orange juice down. "Nothing," he mumbled getting 

up. "Wesley," I grabbed his hand. "Come on I've known you for 5 years. I think 

you can tell me," I argued. "I just wish it was me," he whispered, looking in my 

eyes. I looked down. "Oh." Wesley awkwardly coughed. "So uh what is it?" He 

asked, almost happier. "Twins," I smiled. Wesley smirked back before heading to 

rehearsals.

Keaton's Perspective

I hurried out of the studio, since I had left later than I planned. I jumped 

into the car, throwing the keys into the ignition. I drove as fast as the speed 

limit would allow me and over a bit. I slammed the brakes into a parking space, 

running into the florist before he took a lunch break. "Hi I'd like a bouquet of 

Gerber daisies," I rambled. I quietly opened the door and creeped into the 

kitchen where Alli was getting glasses out of the cabinet. "I'm home," I 

whispered, wrapping my arms around her making her gasp. "You scared," she 

shrieked, slapping me with the towel. I chuckled. "I got these for you," I 

handed her the flowers. "Keaton, you're amazing," Alli reached her hands around 

my neck and kissed my lips. "And I got lunch so you don't have to do dishes," I 

smiled. "I love you, Keaton," she mumbled. "I love you more," I said before 

kissing her passionately.

*Alli's Perspective*

"What are you doing?" Keaton asked taking a seat next to me on the couch. 

"Watching tv" I stated simply,looking at Keaton. "Looks like you've found a new 

friend" Keaton smiled,referring to Zuni. "Can you cuddle with me?" Keaton asked. 

"But your hard to cuddle with" I pouted,rubbing my now large seven month belly. 

Every since my stomach started to grow, it was hard to even be somewhat close to 

Keaton. "Blah" he sighed,setting his hand on my belly to feel the small baby's 

kicking. "Well,I'm going to go take a shower. Shout if ya need me" he smiled
