The day of the reveal party...

Emily's POV

I woke up refreshed and excited. I couldn't wait to find out what Stephen and I were having. Stephen was still sprawled out with his leg and arm draped over me.

I quietly snuck out from the bed and peaked over to check on Mavi.

She was fast asleep in her crib. Cassandra had dropped her off pretty late last night because their flight had been delayed.

I brushed my teeth and put on my robe and went into the kitchen where Italia was already making breakfast.

I immediately regretted that decision because the smell made me want to puke. I ran back to the bedroom and shut the bathroom door hoping not to wake Stephen or Maverick.

Soon I felt a cool wash cloth on the back of my neck and my hair being pulled back into a bun.

I looked up to see Stephen.

"Thank you." I said.

"I thought we were over this part?" He said sympathetically.

I shook my head. "I guess not."

I brushed my teeth once again and walked out into the living room where Italia was now sitting with a worried look on her face, Robbie rubbing her shoulders.

"I'm so sorry. I didn't know that eggs would bother you so much." She said upset.

I smiled. "It's okay. I usually don't know what is going to bother me either. We thought we were over this part, but this pregnancy has been very unpredictable."

I sat on the other couch and Stephen sat on the arm rest beside me.

"Are you sure you're up for today?" He asked concerned.

I frowned. "You better not be trying to cancel just because of a little morning sickness."

He sighed. "Emily, you know that this is more serious than that. The doctor specifically said that you shouldn't be straining yourself and a party like this counts as doing just that." He argued.

I turned to Italia for help.

"Stephen, don't worry. I am taking complete control of this party and all you and Em have to do is sit there and be in love. This is something to get everyone's minds off of all the drama that has surrounded this relationship, it is to show that you guys really do love each other, in case anyone doubts." She explained.

He sighed. "Fine, but at any sign of you feeling sick or tired I am pulling the plug on this entire thing."

"That won't be necessary." I smiled.

Italia trashed her entire breakfast so we decided to go out.

We pulled up to a hidden away café about 20 minutes from our place. Stephen of course helped me out of the car and held onto me the entire time. I couldn't be mad because I knew how worried he was about my condition, but it was making me more nervous by having him act this way.

Once we had finished breakfast we headed back to our house to get all of the boxes of decorations and everything else we needed for the party that would be at a hotel not too far from the Arrow set. We wanted it to be outdoors and they had a beautiful courtyard. Originally the plan was to have it at our place, but soon we realized that the apartment was too small and Stephen and I had yet to agree on a house.
