Stay

65

Today is Wednesday which means we fly home later today. I constantly felt like crying because of my grandparents reaction but I was holding it in. Colby kept telling not to bottle it up but I would rather do that then break down. Right now we were on our way to meet Quin at the apartment. We parked in the parking garage and Quin buzzed us in. We got to the second floor and got to the apartment. I knocked.

"COME IN." Quin yelled. I opened the door and she was sitting in the living room with multiple gift bags. "Oooh you going to a party." I said as we all took our our shoes and coats. "Nope." Quin said she grabbed Colby and I's hand's and pulled us over and made us sit on the loveseat.

Sam and Kat walked over smiling like children and so was Quin. "What is going on." I asked. "Whatever it is I guess the three musketeers over here are responsible for it." Colby said making us laugh. "Correct now here." Quin said setting the three big gift bags in front of Colby and I.

"These are from me." Quin said. "And our gift we will give after her's." Sam said as all three of them sat on the couch. "Quin you don't need to get us anything." I said Colby nodded. "Oh shut up quit being so polite and open it." She said. "Damn okay." I said with a laugh.

Colby grabbed a bag that said oh baby on it. I rolled my eyes. "I forget how cliché you are quin." I said with a laugh. She rolled her eyes. "Oh and don't worry everything is gender neutral even though its doesn't matter." She said.

Colby pulled out a onesie it was Grey with tiny little yellow starts all over it. "Awwww." I said. "That's super cute." Colby added then folded it setting it aside. I pulled out a sage green onesie that said "Mom and Dad said no so Auntie said yes." Sam, Kat, Colby, and I laughed. "Of course." I said

Colby pulled out a black onesie that came with black pants and white little hat. On the onesie in white it said "Angel Baby." "Quin this is so cute." I said. "I love it." Colby said. "Ok that's all the clothes for baby." She said.

I pulled out a something flat wrapped in bubble wrap it was about a foot and a half long. Colby and I carefully unwrapped it. "Oh Quin." I said it was a light up sign that said. "Little Explorer."(Picture up top) I looked up at Colby he a had a tear rolling down his cheek. "Awww baby." I said and hugged him. He sniffled "Thank you quin this is perfect." He said. "Your welcome." Quin said.

I grabbed the next bag. "Okay so this one is stuff for you during the pregnancy." Quin said. I pulled out a grey maternity t-shirt I gasped when I read it, It said "Awwwwww and to think I almost swallowed you." "QUINLYN." I said using her whole name. I turned the shirt around and everyone lost it laughing.

"Where do you suggest I where this." I said laughing. "Home public who gives a fuck." She said. I rolled my eyes and pulled out another shirt this one was black and it said "It started out with a kiss how did it end up like this." With a arrow pointing to the stomach. "Ok I appreciate the Mr.Brightside lyric." I said.

The rest of my bag was lotions and bubblebath some nursing salve and some slippers. "Ok the next one is from my sister's." She said. I had given Quin permission to tell them since they were like older sisters to me too.

"Aw they didnt have to." I said. There were gender neutral clothes little sock's a stuffed koala a baby monitor and a blanket. "Oh my gosh tell them thank you for us." I said. "I will." Quin said. "Thank you too for all of this. I said standing up and hugging her. "Your welcome." She said as Colby hugged her.

"So we need you to close your eyes for our surprise." Sam said. I closed them and heard some shuffling and banging. "Okay open." Kat said. I opened them to Quin standing with her suit case and plane ticket. "NOO WAY." I squealed. I hugged her and Sam and kat. "That's not all." Sam said.
