At this moment, we were all laying down in the living room watching some movie that I'm not paying attention to. I snuggled up against Alex's chest, he wrapped an arm carelessly around my waist. Suddenly Robert popped up from his seat and turned off the movie. Everybody gave him a confused look. "Look this movie is boring, and we have really important things to get to. Like getting you two married before that nudger is born." He said and pointed to my stomach. My hand went around my stomach protectively.

"Hey, he is not a nudger.... yet." I said and laughed knowing he will be nudger later on.

"Who said it's going to be a boy? I say it's a little girl." Alex countered me when I said he. I shook my head

"Boo, It's a boy. If we bet I'll end up winning." I said knowingly. It was his turn to shake his head. I stood up and Alex was standing in front of me. Austin, Robert, Kendall and Logan moved to my side. While Ari, Zach, James and Carlos went to Alex's side. "Okay Alex if it's a boy, I get to name him and you have to take us to dinner. Vice verse for you. Deal?" I asked. Everybody nodded now of course this had to go on paper. Carlos got out a piece of paper and started writing. Once he was done I picked it up and started reading it. Everything is good, I picked up the pen and signed it. Everybody from my team signed under my name. Alex and his team did the same.

"You just lost the right of naming our son and are buying us lunch right after we find out the gender. In 2 months." I pat my barely visible bump.

"Whatever let's drop this conversation. So I was out today and I passed this store I saw this in this window and I just had to buy." Austin said getting a bag from behind his back.  I looked at confused. Where did he get that? He pushed it towards me wanting me to open it and see what he got me. I slowly sat down and opened it. I smiled at the gift he got me. It was a maternity tee shirt. It was made for 7-9months. I'm only two and this will fit me huge.

"Sorry, You'll have to wait to see me in this." I said as I put it in the bag. Austin rushed to my side and pulled me to the room with the shirt.

"No you are wearing this now!" He yelled pouting. It was adorable. I guess I can't refuse to wear this. I pulled off my shirt and pulled on the new one. I looked in the mirror and as expected it  was huge on me. I giggled at how ridiculous I looked. I heard the door bell go off. Automatically, I walked downstairs to see who it was. Austin was hot on my trail. As I got to the living room, i heard awes from people. A smile formed on my lips. A smile of adoration was on Alex's face as I walked next to him. Both of us opened the door carelessly. There was a man around of 40 years of age. As he looked at us he looked like he was going to cry of joy.

"Um, Hello?" I asked in a small voice. He smiled lightly.

"Hey, Are you Alejandra Valentine?" He asked hopefully. I nodded slightly, scared at who this stranger was.

"I'm David Valentine." He said slowly. Dave Valentine? My father? No He's not the man who left abandoned me years ago. I felt Alex's hand wrapped around my waist protectively.

"You're the man who abandoned me when I was born!" I yelled moving closer to Alex's side.

"I didn't abandoned you, Your mother never told me you were on the way. She Left me told me never to look for her. She left and I gave up on her. around 8 years later I found out that she left me, while expecting a child of mine! That moment on I decided to go on a search for my child. It took forever but I realised you two were still in Miami. I searched for your mom, I just found out she died yesterday. Someone told me I could find you here." He explained at the doorway. Tears were spilling down his cheeks carelessly.

"You're lying to me!' I removed myself from Alex's grip and ran to Austin who was close by. Alex steeped out with the man. "He's lying Austin, he's lying." I whimpered into his chest. He held me carefully. Everybody left slowly. First it was the guys then Ari. Austin and I merged into my bedroom. There my eyelids started feeling really heavy.
