_______ POV

"Mommy~," This is the fifth time Tyler has called my name within three minutes. "Yes, pumpkin pooh?" I question as I turn my attention away from the keyboard. I saw Taylor furrow her eyebrows. "No! Mine, mama!" She screamed at the top of her lungs. She hates it when I call Tyler by her nickname. I sigh deeply and stand up from my chair and clap my hands together.

"Okay, babies. Let's call daddy." I say as I take their little hands and walk them into the kitchen. I help both of them up onto the counter, where they sit and swing their tiny feet. "Daddy with Uncle Tyler." Tyler says to his sister and she nods as if she fully understood. I smiled at their conversation and dial Josh's number.

"Salutations." Josh answers as I put the phone on speaker. "Daddy, come home." Taylor whined. I heard Josh chuckle and sigh. "Okay, Ruby-Bean, I'm on the way. Where is my Jensen-Bean?" He asked, referring to our kids' middle names. "Here papa!" Tyler called in the cutest little voice.

"Hey, have you been taking care of mommy and Ruby-Bean?" Tyler looks up at me and I nod. "Yes," He says holding out the vowel. "Good, buddy. Now you two let me talk to mommy for a bit. Love you." Josh say before kissing the kids through the phone. I help them down off the counter and they run along to the living room and play with their blocks.

After I am sure they are out of earshot, I take the phone off of the speaker and put it to my ear. "Josh, you haven't been home in a week. They miss, I miss you." I sigh as I lean against the counter. "I know, _______! We've been working on a new project and I just haven't had time." He snapped. I was taken aback by his tone.

"Joshua, you act like I am not in the same boat as you. In case you haven't noticed I have been taking care of our kids and composing this album. On. My. Own." I say through gritted teeth.

Josh and I have been having trouble in our relationship as of late. He is never home and I have to work while watching the kids. I'm also pregnant, but I haven't told Josh yet.

"I'm sorry, baby. I know I'm putting a lot on you. Don't worry, I will be home in like twenty minutes. I will make it up to you." Josh says sincerely. I smile because I know he means what he says. "Okay, love you, Jishwa." I say sweetly. I heard Josh giggle. "Love you too,(N/N)." Josh answers. We hang up and I start dinner.

~Time Skip brought to you by my Comeback~

After starting the taco meat, I hear the garage door open. The twins jump up from their spots on the kitchen floor-where they were sneaking pecies of lettece- and ran to the door to wait for their father.

"'Daddy!" Tay and Ty shout in unison. I smile and continue on the food. "Oh my goodness! These aren't my babies, you are way to big." Josh said as he lifted them up to rest on his hips. Josh walks around the counter and kissed my cheek. "Hi Mama Bear." He says as he sat the kids down.

I smile and turn to face him. "Hey." I say pecking his lips. "Eww," I heard the kids whine. I laugh and rush them out of the kitchen. Upon my return, I find Josh finishing up on dinner.

"This is a lot of food for just the four of us," He says as he moves the meat onto a plate. I smile and wrap my arms around his waist. "I invited everyone over," I say swaying with my words. Josh turns to face me.

"Oh? Why?" He asked as he pull the tortillas from the oven. I lean onto to the counter and cross one foot over the other. "I have a surprise for everyone," I say looking down. I hear Josh screech. I jump and grab my chest. "What the heck, dude? I almost had a heart attack." I scold as I take a deep breathe.

"Sorry, but can I ask a question?" Josh asked like a shy child. I sigh and gesture for him to continue. "Are we getting another cat?" He asked. I rolled my eyes. "Boy, you almost ended my life over a cat?" I question. Josh blushes as the door bell rings. I shake my head and go to answer the door.

"Well, aren't you just beautiful?" Sarah exclaimed as I opened the door. I smile and hug her. "Where are my children!?" Brendon exclaimed as he walked into the house. "Those are not your children, they are mine!" Tyler screamed as he walked in right after Brendon. Xoey and  Xander walk in not to long after.

"Uncle Brenny!" Exclaimed the little voice belonging to my daughter. "Tay-Tay!" He replies. I smile as I hug Jenna and close the door. I hug Xoey and everyone else walks to the kitchen and us women stay behind.

"Alright, spill it chick." Xoey say snapping her fingers. I look at her with a confused look. "You know what we are talking about! The random dinner on a Friday when we normally do Sunday dinner here," Jenna starts. "That unexplainable glow you have. Call me crazy, but it is very similar to the one you had when you were preggo with the twins." Sarah says.

I smile and blush. "Wow, is it that obvious?" I ask, pressing the back of my hand to my cheek. The all hum in agreement and smile. "How far along are you?" Asked Jenna. I look down and mumble. "Hun, I didn't hear you." Sarah says. I cough and swing my arms back and forth as I rock on the heels of my feet. "Three months." I say quietly.

Xoey goes wide eyed. "How the bloody hell do you hide a pregnancy from your husband and friends for three months?" She whisper yells. Sarah furrows her brows at me. "You mean to tell me, that you and Josh haven't had sex in the past like two months?" She asked. I nod and fiddle with my fingers. They all groan and gasp.

"Hey, come on! We don't have sex like that anyway being that we have two young children, who like to sleep in our bed." I defended. Jenna rolled her eyes. "Oh, but you had time three months ago. I swear you are more fertile than that Duggar woman." She says shaking her head. I frown and look at my feet.

"I'm sorry, okay? I just didn't know how to tell any of you. Everyone has been so busy." I say shyly. I feel someone pull me into a hug before two more pairs of arms wrap around me.

"It's fine, honey. We know how busy life can be. Especially when your husband is on the road or in the studio all the time." Sarah says.

"Yeah, chicki." I hear Jenna say. "You are hecka strong, dude. You have two and a half kids, a band, a house, and a husband to maintain. Then you have to take care of yourself. You are the true meaning of strong and the prime example of a great woman, mother, and wife." Xoey complimented.

I pull away and smile as I felt tears burning my eyes. "Dang it! My lady hormones are getting to me again." I say wiping what had fallen and sniffling. I hear them all 'aww' as Josh called us to the dining room for dinner. "Alright! Here we go." I breathe out as we all walk to the dining area.
