Rey thought about all the pros and cons of having the baby. She thought about having an abortion and the pros and cons of that. Adoption, even selling the kid on the black market.

She ended up deciding to keep it. She got up and found Amethyst. She was laying on the couch.

"Amethyst"

"Rey"

"I have decided I want to keep it" Rey nodded to herself more than to amethyst.

"wonderful" she smiled. She sat up "ok. Christmas is right around the corner."

"It's a month away"

"Exactly. We have a month to plan the big announcement."

"I'm really nervous about this though."

"You'll be fine Rey. You're the kindest person I know. I mean you're awkward but still. You'll be fine. And you'll be spoiled! The family loves you! I mean that show Everybody loves Ray was really about you!"

"There's a show called that?"

"Oh my god Rey! Seriously!"

Rey rolled her eyes. "Anyway. I umm.. I'm 10 weeks according to the doctor."

"I'm about five, six." Amethyst said. "You'll be finished before me. Especially if you're early. Which knowing how clumsy you are..."

"Great. Something to look forward to." Rey said dryly. "Just... it's going to be so awkward telling everyone."

"Telling everyone what?" A voice asked and Alistair walked into the living room with Kylo.

"You know when she says everyone, she doesn't mean everyone here. She might mean everyone as in a group of other people." Amethyst said.

"I'm going to a therapist counseling group for obsessive behaviour. Since I become a control freak when stressed." Rey told him.

"Oh that's great! Why didn't you say so?" Alistair asked. "I could have went with you."

"Nah." Rey said and smiled. She felt sicked all of a sudden. "Excuse me I'm going to my room. I'm not feeling so hot."

"You might not feel hot but you look it." Alistair said. "No?"

She ran upstairs, ignoring him. "I'm going to nap with Rey. So no sneaking in to have sex with her. Okay!" Amethyst said to Alistair.

"We should get dinner together." Kylo said to Amethyst who didn't reply.

"Those two are acting strange." Alistair said.

"What?"

"Since when have they cared if anyone walked in and found them napping."

"You're right. They're planning a surprise birthday party for you aren't they?"

"I bet! That explains it!" Alistair said. "My birthday is so close to Christmas usually I don't get much recognition."

"Nah. You're getting it this year. I bet you'll get awesome surprise sex too on your birthday. Look forward to it. I'm sorry it just has to be with Rey you could've done better!"

"No I'm very lucky to have Rey." Alistair said in defence of his wife. "Let's leave them to plan my surprise birthday party."

"Yeah. Let's do that. I'll see if I can find out more information for you tonight when I'm in bed with Amethyst."

"Alistair thinks you two are planning a party for him." Kylo says as Amethyst was changing.

"Ummmm sure" Amethyst smiled. "Let's say that. A surprise" she pulled her shirt over her head. "Yeah. Yeah"

"Your tone says differently" he turned to her. "You're not doing that are you."

"Sure we are! It's just why does he think that? Did you tell him we were?!"

"I assumed and the guy has his hopes up."

There was a knock on their door suddenly and Rey barged in. "She actually knocked!" Kylo uttered.

"I need to talk to you." Rey said.

"It's okay Kylo knows about the surprise party for Alistair. You can speak in here."

"You better not tell him anything!" Rey immediately broke into the ruse.

"I hinted.... And he assumed..."

"Why did you hint?" Rey asked.

"Well you were both acting strangely so..." began Kylo. "I assumed..."

"Well don't assume anything pig fart!" Rey replied.

"Wow Rey's touchey! Must be that time of the month!" Kylo remarked and laughed.

"Hey leave her alone!" Amethyst told Kylo off before dragging Rey out of the room. "Don't mind him honey. Why don't you go lie down?"

"It's my two favourite women!" Alistair's voice said suddenly and both girl's felt an arm around their necks. "How are you both doing?"

"I'm going to go lie down and prepare that thing we were just talking about inside your room." Rey said to Amethyst. "You know that thing that I really need to do now."

"Oh yeah. And I'll be helping you if you need it."

"I know." Rey replied. "It'd be nice if Kylo'd help too."

"What is it? Maybe I can help?" Alistair said and went to tickle Rey but she pulled back. "Rey?"

"Sorry. I umm... You can't help. I gotta go." Rey said and left.

"You and Rey okay?" Amethyst asked.

"Yeah we're fine. I mean she's been really distant lately and stuff but I just assumed she was tired."

"Oh she's really tired. But she loves you. A lot. So be patient with her?"

"You'll keep an eye on her for me won't you, Amethyst?"

"Sure I will. Of course I will." Amethyst replied before going back into her room.

"So are we alone at last?" Kylo asked Amethyst and walked up to put an arm around her. "I was thinking we could reconnect a bit more today."

"Oh?" Amethyst asked and smiled.

"Yeah." grinned Kylo and kissed her.
