DARREN
"Hey babe," Darren said as he walked into the living room. Your mum was on Skype, they lived in Spain, while you and Darren lived in the US "Hey, D, let's tell them" You said, and he made his way over to you. He sat next to you, and prepared himself for this "Hey Darren, how are you doing sweetie?" Your mom asked, "Really good, what about you?" He asked and looked over at you "Fine, thank you" She smiled "So mum, we have some really good news for you" You smiled "You do?" She asked. You nodded "Me and Darren, we are having a baby!" You said "What?!" Your mum squealed "This is so great!" She said. You giggled, feeling excited "Calm down baby, yeah?" Darren asked. You giggled, your mum was still going crazy. You pressed your foreheads together "I love you" Darren said "I love you more" You said "Not possible" He said, cheekily. You both had forgotten about your mm still on the computer screen "You guys will be wonderful parents" She said, interrupting your perfect moment "Bye mum!" You cheered.

CHORD
You and Chord were on your way over to his mum and dad's house. You were going to give the news at Christmas. When you got there, Chord was so giddy "C, are you okay?" You giggled "Yeah, just excited," He said and smiled. As everyone took their seats with their plates of food, you nodded at Chord telling him it was time to tell everyone. You both stood up, and everyone looked at you both. Chord cleared his throat "Umm, I and Florence have an announcement" You both smiled "We're having a baby" You said, happy. Everyone cheered, erasing your nerves. Everyone got up to hug and congratulate you both. You talked with all of the girls of the family, and about your baby and what's to come.

GRANT
You and Grant wanted a unique way to tell your parents, so you decided to take your pregnancy test, and put it into a bottle. You put the bottle in a gift bag, and when you got to their house, you put the bag into your purse. Your mum had made tea, am you and Grant sat on the couch across from your mum and dad "So, we have a surprise for you guys" You said, and put your tea down. You got out the gift bag and gave it to your mum and dad to open. She had a questioning look on her face but began to open it anyway. She saw the bottle and smiled. Then she saw the pregnancy test, and she squealed "My baby is going to have a baby!" Your dad finally caught on. They both stood up, smiling. You have your dad a hug, and he whispered in your ear "You'll be a great mum, Tessa, and I'm proud of you and Grant" You smiled and kissed his cheek. Your mum and Grant hugged, her hand patting his back. She was now crying, and you made your way over as she let go of Grant "Are you okay?" You smiled "Yes, just extremely happy," She said and hugged you.

JONATHAN
You were laying on the couch, eating a snack and watching TV. Jonathan walked in, phone in hand "Hey babe, you feeling okay?" You nodded, your phone ringing "Hello?" You answered "Hey honey, it's mum. I was wondering if you're doing okay. Haven't talked to you in a while, since last week" She said "I'm doing okay" You started, Jonathan almost walking out of the room. You forgot your mom was on the phone "J, can you come to lay down with me and the babies?" You asked your ear to the phone. you realized what you just said. You heard a gasp "Evelyn, your pregnant? Oh my gosh! This is so amazing. I'm getting old. I'm coming out to see you soon!" Your mom said, yelling at your dad to come in there. She told him, and they were both excited "Bye Eva, call me if you need anything" Your mum said "Love you" She finished. Jonathan got underneath you, and you lay on top of him "I love you" You said to him. He put his hands on your still flat belly, and you put your hands on top of you "I love you, all of you" He kissed your temple.
