Daddy's Girl

the announcement

Chapter 3.
Adam and I were having a contest, one that he roped me into, involving marshmallows and chocolate sauce, and Selena and Kim were judging with the occasional sounds of my craving wife wanting some, when we heard screams coming from upstairs. I immediately swallowed my marshmallow chocolate sauce mixture and ran up the stairs to see Katherine holding her knee tightly, sobbing uncontrollably and Andy apologizing over and over again.
"What happened?" I demanded as I sat on the ground and pulled Katherine into my lap.
"We were running and playing rocket ship when I accidentally pushed Katie (A/N, Kit-Kat is Chase's special name for her. The kids will call her Katie and the adults will call her Katherine) and she tripped and fell on something and hurt her leg." Andy explained.
"Andy, go downstairs, Katherine and I will be down in a sec." I said as I got off the floor with Katherine still in my arms.
Andy nodded while I took Katherine into the bathroom and made her sit down on the closed toilet seat. I grabbed the first aid kit and cleaned up her knee and put a bandage on it.
"There you go Kit-Kat." I said as I put the first aid kit back up.
"Kiss it better?" She asked.
"Honey, that's really germy." I said, then remembered that this was my daughter.
"I'm not gonna kiss your knee, but..." I started as I picked her up and started running to her room, making her squeal.
"Daddy! Put me down!" She happily yelled.
I laid her on the bed, pulled up her shirt and blew a raspberry on her stomach, making her scrunch up and laugh.
"Stop!" She yelled while laughing.
"Nope!" I yelled back as I did it again, making her squeal again.
Then I started tickling her feet.
"Stop it daddy! Please!" She yelled while laughing.
"Chase?! Katherine?! Bree, Isaac and Lucy are here!" Selena yelled up the stairs.
"Ok, I'll stop. Let's go see aunt Bree." I said as we got off of her bed.
"Yay!" She happily yelled as she ran down the stairs.
When we got down there, I was immediately embraced in a hug by Bree, which I hugged her back.
"I'm so happy to see you Chase. How long has Adam been here?" Bree asked.
"A hour or two. And he is set on eating all the food in my house." I explained as we turned to Adam, who was shoving marshmallows in his mouth.
"What? I can't help the fact that Kim is set on healthy lifestyles." Adam said with a mouth full of marshmallows.
"That explains so much." Bree said.
"Exactly. I never want blue corn chips again. And I'll eat anything!" Adam said.
Then Selena came over to Bree and they hugged.
"It's so good to see you Bree." Selena said.
"You too. You wanna go upstairs and talk about the you know what?" Bree asked, referring to the babies.
"Actually, Chase and I have a big announcement regarding the you know what." Selena explained.
"That works." Bree said.
"Lucy!" We suddenly heard Katherine yell.
"Katie!" Lucy yelled as she hugged Katherine tightly.
Then we heard the doorbell again. I opened it and saw Leo and Taylor.
"Hey Leo. Hey Taylor." I said as I hugged them both.
"Hey, be careful Chase. Taylor is eight months." Leo explained as they both walked in, Leo holding Taylor's hand.
I looked down and indeed saw Taylor's baby bump.
"That is the second baby I haven't noticed today." I said.
"Who was the first?" Adam asked.
"Katherine's teacher." I said.
"Who is?" Leo asked.
"Sabrina." I lowered my voice to a whisper.
"Wait. Sabrina? As in scared to death of Spike Sabrina?" Bree asked.
"Yes that Sabrina!" I yelled, making everyone jump.
Then the doorbell rang again and I opened the door to Douglas, Daniel and a unfamiliar girl.
"Hey guys." I smiled.
"Hey Chase." Douglas said.
"Chase, this is my girlfriend Connie." Daniel said as he put his arm around her.
"Nice to meet you Connie." I said.
"Nice to meet you to. Daniel has told me all about you." Connie smiled.
I saw Mr. Davenport's car pull up right then and I saw him, Tasha and Kira come out.
"Hey guys!" I yelled.
Kira, being the happy eight year old she was, immediately ran into the house followed by Mr. Davenport and Tasha. Selena got up off the couch after they got in the house.
"I should start on dinner." She said as she got up.
"Honey, let me help you." Tasha said, almost spoiling the surprise.
"Tasha. It's fine. You are a guest." Selena explained.
After a few more minutes, Selena finally gave in and she and Tasha started cooking.
Adam, Leo, Daniel, Isaac and I all went upstairs to play video games while Taylor, Kim, Bree and Connie had "girl talk." Douglas and Mr. Davenport were talking and Katherine, Kira, Andy and Lucy were all playing upstairs. After a few hours, Selena and Tasha announced it was dinner time. Katherine was sitting beside me at the table and she whispered in my ear.
"Daddy, does mommy look fat to you?"
I whispered back.
"Be nice...but yes."
"Don't whisper at the table." Selena scolded us.
After we started eating, Selena said.
"Chase and I have a big announcement."
"We are expecting twins." I smiled as I kissed Selena.
"Gross!" Kira yelled, making us laugh.
"Daddy, what does expecting twins mean?" Katherine asked.
"It means that mommy is gonna have a baby. But instead of one baby, it's two babies." I explained.
"Awesome! I'm gonna be a big sister!" Katherine yelled.
"Yes you are Kit-Kat." I said with a huge grin on my face.
