Chris took Jack on his arm, and grabbed a hold of my hand, before we walked into the clinic.

I felt my heartbeat rise as we sat down and waited. Chris sensed that I was nervous and squeezed my hand reassuringly.

I could sense that he was excited. I don't think, Jack really understood what was going on.

I was lost in my own thoughts, when the doctor called out my name, almost making me jump in shock.

I cleared my throat nervously, before I got up and followed the doctor together with Chris and Jack.

The doctor gestured me to lay down, as he got ready for the ultrasound.

Chris sat down on the chair, next to me, with Jack on his lap.

"Any problems or discomfort?" The doctor asked, while preparing.

"No, not at all, except for the morning sickness." I answered smiling.

The doctor turned to us and walked closer.

"I'm glad you changed your mind." He said smiling.

"Me too." I said smiling at Chris.

"This might be a bit cold." The doctor warned before he placed the wand on my belly. I gasped from the cold feeling.

Jack quickly got on his knees, in Chris's lap, so he could lean over. He placed his hands on mine.

My eyes turned at him in surprise.

"Ouch?" He said questioningly.

"No, no." I quickly responded, shaking my head. "It's just cold." I chuckled.

After a few moments the doctor found the baby, and got a clear view.

"See buddy. There's the baby." Chris said excitedly to Jack, while pointing at the screen.

Jack looked excitedly at the screen, before he turned to Chris.
"The baby is growing in Melissa's belly." Chris continued, making Jack stare at him.

"You'll soon have a baby sister or brother." Chris said, as he held Jack close to him
An excited smile were plastered across their faces, as they looked between the screen and my belly.

Chris carefully leaned over and placed a soft kiss on my lips, while holding onto Jack, still sitting in his lap.

Jack started to make kissing sounds.

"You want a kiss too?" Chris asked in his usual fun tone.

Jack shifted so he was facing Chris, before he cupped Chris's face between his small hands and kissed him.

Chris was so amazing with Jack, and I couldn't wait for our child to be born.

Jack shifted again, so he was leaning towards me. He cupped my face between his hands, and gave me a wet peck on the lips.

I couldn't help but chuckle, by the thought of what a great big brother, Jack would be.
