"Oh my gosh why didn't I just stay with Sarah and Evan?  Why am I such and idiot?!  Oh yeah I can do this myself, I'm tough... The hell you are Jessica!" She says walking slowly to the door.
She looks out the peep hole but can't make anything out, "Damn eyes!  Why do I have to be so blind!"
She slowly opens the door and looks out, "What the fuck!  GEORGE?!  What the hell are you doing?  YOU SCARED ME!!!" She puts Gabby down and hits his chest.
"Jess, Jess I'm sorry!" He grabs her arms.
"Why didn't you call me?"
"My phone died."
"Well what are you doing here?"
"Well I felt bad knowing that you were in this huge house all alone so I finally got some time off from work to come and stay with you... Besides, they're so many weirdos out there, you can't trust anyone."
"Oh yeah there's weirdos out there alright!" She crosses her arms and looks at him.
"Jess.."
"I'm sorry George, I-I shouldn't have acted like that, but you scared the shit out of me!"
"I know, I apologize... I should have found a way to get ahold of you."
"Well it's fine.. Get over her and give you favorite sister a hug!" She says holding her arms out and smiling.

"Hi Gabriella, how's my favorite niece doing?" He picks her up and get excited.
"Oh my gosh that's the first time in weeks that she's let someone pick her up without screaming bloody murder."
"That's because she loves her uncle George!" He kisses her cheek.
"She does!  Hey George do you mind if I go to bed, I've had a long day and I'm exhausted!"
"Sure Jess.. I'll put her to bed."
"Thank you so so much!  You have no idea how much you're helping me out!  Just put her in the bassinet in my room when she falls asleep."
"Will do Jess!"
"Oh thank you so much!  Have I ever told you that you're my favorite sibling?" She goes to give him a kiss on the cheek.

She goes upstairs, "Oh my gosh I get the bed all to myself!" She plops herself down and instantly falls asleep.

The next morning she wakes up sick but not as bad as it's been, she brushes her teeth and heads downstairs.
George has Gabriella in her high chair feeding her, "Well good morning!" She smiles.
"Morning Jess!"
"Look at you two!"
"Yeah, she woke up early and I didn't want her to wake you, so I got her changed and made her breakfast."
"Well aren't you sweet!  Thanks George!"
"No problem, do you want anything to eat?"
"Oh no I don't feel well, thank you though!"
"You sick?"
"Uh yeah.." She answers nervous.
"Hey uh George, I have to work a few hours today, would you mind watching Gabby for me?"
"No, of course Jess!  That's why I'm here.  Gabby you and uncle George are gonna have a fun day today, aren't we!" He says in a baby voice.
Jessica laughs and says.
"Alright well I'm gonna get ready." She kisses Gabby before going back upstairs.

She gets to work and everyone looks like they've just seen a ghost, "What's wrong with everybody?" Jessica laughs.
"Where is your daughter?!  Do you have pregnancy brain already Jess?!  How could you forget Gabriella?!" Sarah says in a panic.
Jessica cracks up laughing, "I didn't forget about her, she's at home!"
"What the hell!  With who?" She yells and her eyes look like they're about to pop out of her head.
"My brother!  Calm down!"
Sarah immediately calms down and says, "Oh George is here?  You didn't tell me he was coming?" With a smile.
"Hah, and you say I'm the one with the mood swings.. I didn't know either, he surprised me last night.  He'll be here until Danny gets back."
"Aw he's such a good brother and uncle... Hey have you told him yet?" She looks to see if anyone's listening, "You know, about the baby?"
"No , I wasn't gonna say anything yet."
"Oh okay.  So Gabby's okay without you right now?"
"Yeah, she loves him Sarah!  She didn't even need me to put her to bed.. When her uncles here, it's like a vacation for her, haha she got so excited to see him!"
"Aw how sweet!" Sarah smiled.

After filming she went back home, "Hey George, how was she?" She asks looking and Gabriella sleeping like an angel.
"She was great... Hey Jess, could I ask you something?"
"Sure, anything!"
"Are you pregnant?"
Jessica looks down and touches her stomach, "What?  Why would you ask that?  Is it obvious?"
"Are you?" His eyes widen and he gets a small smile on his face.
"Yeah." She smiles.
"Oh my gosh, Jess that's wonderful!" He hugs her tight, "Why didn't you tell me?"
"Well Danny doesn't know yet, and I was waiting a little while before I told more people, but I'm so relieved that you know!... Wait... How did you know?"
"Well last night you started hitting me like a mad woman, which is understandable I guess, you said you've been sick and there's this way you look when you're pregnant, I don't really know what it is but you can just tell... But what really had me thinking was that while you were gone Gabriella couldn't stop saying baby and touching my stomach." He chuckled.
"Oh my gosh really?!" She puts her hands on her mouth then lowers them to her chest and says, "That's so sweet!  Aw she's gonna be such a good big sister!"
"Just like her mommy." George smiles and wraps his arm around her shoulder.
"Aw thank you!  Maybe it'll be a boy and they'll be just like you and I!" She lays her head on his shoulder.
"Aw that would be priceless!" He smiles.
