The creatures searched for their prey, sniffing the air every once in a while as I hid in the little space I'd crammed into to get away from the things that wanted to torture me.

As I moved around a bit to get into a more comfortable position my left elbow shoved an object and something dropped. The creatures stopped, glowing eyes snapping to the closet I was hidden in.

'Vincent,' I whispered through our mind-link. There was no response. Dammit! They've captured him. My mate was in the clutches of the evil creatures.

I was so focused on reaching out to my mate that I didn't realize the door slowly opened. There was a creak before they grabbed a hold of my ankles and pulled. I went down with a hard thump.

Heart hammering inside my chest, I turned and attempted to make my great escape. Sadly, I didn't get far. Within the next second I was viciously tackled to the floor. I turned around and there they are, grinning from ear to ear like bats from hell. Beautiful bats from hell.

The ring leaders stepped forward, two short yet strong women. They held some kind of chain in their hands as they leaned in.

"Welcome to the sleepover!" Rosie and Stacy screamed in my ear.

This is seriously the worst day of my life. I don't know how people can do it. It's too painful!

I once again tried to back up but Jasmine was holding me down along with Robin as well as Alice.

For some reason Ava, Roxanne, Naomi stayed out of the rough housing. A reason I knew all too well. Now, I'm not saying a pregnant Rosie is rough housing, but it's just that when she wants something she gets it.

"Okay!" I yelled throwing my hands up in surrender. "I'll do it."

They squealed in excitement finally getting off me to let me get up.

I went to work. Can anyone guess what we're doing? Well, what they're making me do is wear a onesie. And it's pink. I think I'm gonna vomit.

"Can I please wear a different color?" I whine.

"Fine. Here." Stacy groaned as she took hers off and handed it to me as I handed mine to her. Yes, I love purple!

After making home made chocolate chip cookies we lay back and watched Christmas movies - Home Alone, The Grinch, Elf, Rudolf the Red Nose Reindeer, you get the point.

"Why doesn't anyone understand the Grinch?" Roxy suddenly sobbed, wiping a tear stained face when the Grinch held his chest as his heart swelled with inexperienced love.

"Yeah, it's just not fair," Ava cried.

Naomi wiped her face angrily. "I agree, it's not fair that the Grinch is judged just because he's mean."

Alice paused the movie. "Girls, is there something you have to tell us?"

"Yes," hiccups Ava.

"I'm pregnant!" the girls yelled all at once. They stared at each other in confusion before we all burst into laughter.

"How far are you three in?" Robin probed, excited at the prospect of more babies.

"Found out two months ago," Roxy yawned sheepishly.

"That's for telling us." Alice said sarcastically.

"Well, I found out one month ago," Ava said really slowly. Then it hit us - I was captured one month ago.

"And you haven't told Derrick," I spoke as slow as her. She nodded her head and starts to cry again.

"He's going to be so mad at me!" she wailed. We put comforting hands on her.
