"So" Demetri asks me as I'm about to leave for my doctor's appointment, Felix is making sure Demetri is staying put since I am planning a surprise on telling Demetri the news. Tonight is game night so it'll be the perfect time to tell him "where are you going?"

"Just have a few errands to run" I give him a kiss on the cheek before leaving, Felix grabs Demetri as I leave.

It takes about an hour before I see my doctor who smiles to me "Hi RJ"

"Doctor Queen" she gives me a physical exam before having me lie back.

"Okay" she uses the vaginal ultrasound machine, looking over she points to the three heartbeats. Oh wow, see in my family there is this thing where your first child is one, second are multiples, next one and next multiples. It switches and it seems I'm having triplets "congratulations, triplets"

"How far" I ask "am I?"

She checks before saying "About eight weeks"

"How come I'm not really nauseous?" I ask "like with my last pregnancies

"Every pregnancy is different" she tells me removing the wand "but I need to you to stay back since I need to tell you the risks with having a high risk pregnancy such as triplets"

~Demetri's POV~

"Felix?" I demand "why are you holding me back?"

"Promise not to follow RJ?" He asks, everyone in the kitchen is looking between us.

"Fine" he lets go of me, but keeps an eye on me. Is something wrong with RJ? She's been very..,secretive since that phone call she got yesterday.

"I'm sure everything this alright" Melody tells me "she was talking with her doctor"

"What?" I ask

"That isn't helping" Ramona tells her, pulling out my phone I go to track here when Felix takes my phone.

"She had something important to tell you but tonight" he says "so wait" after pacing around the living room for hours, RJ comes with several bags.

"Why did you see your doctor?" I ask

She looks at me "don't worry" placing a hand on my face "just" cupping my face, she smiles brightly "let's just say you'll finally get to be here for this" kissing me briefly before leaving. I am so confused.

~RJ's POV~

"Okay everyone" it's game night and those here are Felix, DJ, Stephanie, Jimmy—Kimmy's little brother—Kimmy, Fernando, Matt, Steve and their girlfriends along with Corin and Chelsea who are visiting with their mates Santiago and Afton "so, here's the first game we are playing" I then realize "where are the kids?" The only kid I see is Violet who is in Corin's arms.

"Their in their rooms" Demetri crossed his arms "why?"

"Kids!" I call "get in here!" When we hear nothing "I'll give you all twenty bucks if you come down here in the next five seconds!" We hear the kids rushing downstairs and I point "sit down, you'll get the money after this one game"

"What's the game called?" Ramona asks

"And why" Stephanie asks "are you wearing a large trench coat?" Yeah, I'm wearing a large trench coat to cover my shirt that gives a hint to what is going on and some jeans with sandals.

"It's a guessing game" I say "and Corin, Chelsea" waving them over "Santiago, Afton, Felix"

"Now" I grab the paper with the tape and tape it to their backs, then I hand them a sharpee "Demetri stand here" bringing him by the easel I borrowed from Melody's room, on it is a large paper board for him to write on. You know where you can flip the page and start over "you write on this" bringing Felix "the work husband goes here" we laugh at my joke "then Afton, Santiago, Corin, Chelsea" placing them all here "now I'm going to write a letter and you need to write it down, see who can guess it first" pulling out my phone "Melody record this"

"Why?" She asks

I give her a look "just record" she does after I check "now, no one tell Demetri cause he needs to guess what is going on" taking off my jacket, I show them the shirt and their all confused so I pull out the pregnancy test I took earlier.

They all gasp and when the vampires go to look those who know yell "Don't look!" I hide behind Matt when Demetri is looking.

"Turn around" I order, he does so but he grumbles in annoyance.

"Okay, first letter" I draw a W, looking over I see them all draw a w. I then write E.

When the phrase is:

WE ARE PRE

Does Chelsea and Corin get it and screech turning around and hugs me, showing them the pregnancy stick they make sure the guys don't see.

"What is going on?" Demetri demands

"Just keep playing" Corin orders, I go up behind Santiago and write the next few letters causing the phrase to be:

We are pregn

Afton and Santiago get it and I show them the test, they keep Felix and Demetri on their paper. "Okay" I say "last few letters" when I write them, Felix and Demetri look at me shocked.

"Congratulations" Felix tells me when he hugs me, after a moment Demetri pulls me into a kiss.

Pulling away, Demetri asks "The doctors visit?"

"Yeah" I confirm

"We're having a baby" he spins me around, this is what it should have been like all those years ago. I'm glad it's happening now.
