Like every night, they all ate together as a family. Caitlyn didn't have the strength to get up on a barstool and she wasn't about to let Vi help her. They were all gathered around one of the tables near the pool table. Caitlyn had been wearing one of Vi's old T-shirts and a pair of her own shorts. The shooter had her head rested on her girlfriend's shoulder. The moment was sweet until Mylo had to ask a dumb question:
"How long does it take for those things to come out?" He asked casually.
"Nine months," Caitlyn muttered tiredly.
"Why are you like this?" Vi asked her brother.
"Like what? What did I do?" Mylo asked in return.
"You're stupid as hell. Asking the dumbest questions at the most random times, what the hell is wrong with you? You really didn't know how long it took?"
"There's a reason he dropped out," Powder mumbled, throwing a chicken's thigh bone into her styrofoam box, "So what are you gonna do anyway? It's twins. Are you gonna have it cut out or push them out?"
"Oh, shit... I still have to do that," Caitlyn told herself, picking her head up off of Vi's shoulder, "Oh, god. Will I survive that?"
"Cait, people do it everyday," Vi reassured. She then looked at her sister and whispered to her, "Pow, there's still people eating."
"Oh, right," the girl said, "Oopsie!"
Vander coughed a bit before speaking, "If you broke out of a lair of Silco's, you can give birth."
"Unless you bleed out and die-"
"Mylo!" Everyone shouted.
Caitlyn whined and hit her head on the table, "I'm gonna be sick."
"Don't be sick, be happy," Mylo said.
"Mylo, I'm gonna take one of them damn chicken bones and shove it in between your vocal cords so you'll stop talking. Shut the fuck up." Vi's demeanor changed as she gently rubbed Caitlyn's back, "You're gonna be okay. You still have two months left."
"What the hell are we gonna do with those two months, Vi?" The blue haired woman whined, "There's still so much to do."
"There's not that much left. All we have to do is build a crib."
"Or you could just keep the babies in the bed with you like Vi's parents did with her," Vander said.
"Oh, is that her problem?" Powder teased.
Vi hit her in the shoulder, "You'd be better off asking Mylo that. Coming out looking like an alien baby."
"Shut up," Mylo muttered.
Caitlyn began giggling a bit at Vi's remark. Mylo just glared at her and rolled her eyes. That only influenced the girl to laugh more. Then the others joined in. These were the moments worth living for.
"Cait, after we eat, I need to show you something," Vi said.
"Show me what?" Caitlyn asked.
"You'll know when you see it."

"Why did you bring me up here?" Caitlyn asked her girlfriend, "It is a lovely view, I'm just a bit confused though."
"I just wanted some time alone with you," Vi said with a smile, wrapping her arm around Caitlyn as they sat on the roof of The Last Drop, "Is that alright with you?"
"Of course it's alright with me. You carrying me bridal style up the stairs really saved my lungs."
"I knew you didn't have the energy for that. I just needed some time away from those morons in there. I think I'm getting more annoyed with the questions than you are."
