Ivy's POV

"Is baby fever in the air?"

"I'm not entirely sure, but it certainly seems to be or A Capella sensation, Pentatonix. I can't even put it into words so I'm going to just let you watch the video."

I watched the five co-anchors of Good Morning America disappear, immediately being replaced by a shaky video of last night. I smiled a bit as confetti covered the screen for a moment before clearing out enough to show Scott ushering Avi to the steps and ramps they used for their choreography. I was kind of glad he didn't fully break down again, but the shock on his face said it all.

"I mean what can you say after that level of a gender reveal, along with dropping the bomb that there's not one, but two?" Robin asked, the anchors appearing once again as they continued speaking.

"You really can't say anything. But what I do want to point out, is while you can't clearly get a look at Ivy's hand, you can clearly see Avi's. There's no ring which means they're not even married. What kind of irresponsible couple don't get married before they have a child, let alone twins?" George asked, taking both myself and Avi off guard.

"How about you save that question for tomorrow, when Pentatonix themselves will be joining us," Lara spoke. With that, the video ended and all seven of us were left staring in disbelief at Esther's laptop.

"Are you guys sure you still want to go in tomorrow morning?" she finally asked as I straightened up a bit.

"It's GMA. We can't just cancel. Don't worry Es, we'll be fine," Avi said after taking everything in for a moment. Esther had been online and found a video of the anchors talking about us, and she told us about it when she figured out we were getting hate.

We decided to stay an extra day in New York just so they could go on the show. I wasn't necessarily for it after watching the video, but since Avi insisted, I silently nodded along. "I'm gonna go to bed. I'm really tired," I said softly.

"I'll be there in a few minutes," Avi said and pulled me close, kissing me gently. I smiled softly and walked out, heading to the hotel room we shared with Kevin. He was nice enough to offer sleeping somewhere else, but I didn't mind having him around. He was helpful when I wanted an unbiased opinion. Getting to the room, I grabbed a quick shower and changed  before I finally crawled in bed. I remembered the door opening and feeling the bed shift slightly as Avi crawled in next to me, but after that, it was dark.

~~~~~~~~~~~

"I swear you both could live sleeping all day and night." I had just barely heard Kevin talk, and smiled slightly as I opened my eyes, squinting at him.

"I think I have a right to sleep. As far as he goes, there's no hope," I said quietly as I sat up and glanced around. It was still dark. "What time is it?"

"Five," he said. I thought about laying down for another half hour, but I knew I wouldn't get back up.

"Looks like I'm awake," I said as I stood up and stretched a bit. "Do you want any coffee?" I asked as I quickly found a sweatshirt and leggings. "I'm probably about to go downstairs and get something to eat."

"Coffee sounds good but I'm fine for food right now. I'll probably grab something on our way out," he said as he began going through his bags.

I nodded and disappeared into the bathroom for a minute to change. When I walked out, I slipped on a pair of boots, not worrying about socks and tied my hair up. I grabbed my room key and phone and walked out, dragging my feel slightly as I headed downstairs. The smell of food was actually pleasant for once. "Thank god for continental breakfast," I mumbled quietly.
