Running Into Hamilton

Full Family

I woke up the next morning and put on a distressed red t shirt with a long-ish black skater skirt that started just between my chest and my waist. I threw on my Adidas trainers and went into the kitchen with my family. "Is Josh going with you to the coffee place today? Or do you want us to go?" Anthony asks. "You guys can come if you want, and Josh is coming." I respond. (An.Ok don't kill me I didn't write it yet but Ant and Jazz are already married) "sorry kid, I'm gonna have to pass you up on your offer. I'm going to the doctors, I've been feeling kinda suck in the mornings lately." Jazz said. "Ok, that's fine. Dad, you can come if you want, we're walking, so it really doesn't matter." I say.

At 11:45, Josh, Ant and I grab our stuff and head towards Strahovas. Once I open the door, I see a tall, fit guy who looks just like me. "Danny! Oh my gosh!" I say, running to hug me as he stands. His face lights up and he holds me in one of his signature bear hugs. "I-i can't believe you're here, I mean you've wanted to live here since you were little." He says. "Yea, neither can I. Well, Danny, this is my dad, Anthony, and this is my boyfriend, Josh." I say, motioning to them.

I order an blueberry scone and a coffee with French vanilla creamer, and we sit down and talk for a while. "So, Dan, what happened after the hospital?" I ask, and he looks up. "Wow, well, I went into a foster h o me in Allentown, but since I was less than 2 years shy of 18, no one adopted me. I moved out right after I graduated and lived with Dacembe and Ronnie for a while, until I moved here to start my business." He says. Anthony leans over and pipes in. "Hey, if you ever need someone, a real family, we're all here, no strings attached. Jazzy and I would love to help, and I'm sure Maddie wants to see you more." He offers, and Danny thanks him. Soon enough, we all finish our orders and say our goodbyes, heading home after all exchanging numbers.

Ant and I sit ourselves in the living room after Josh left and watch re-runs of old shows while we wait for Jazz to get home. She returns after about 30 minutes, and sits down across from me. "Ant, Maddie, I have something to tell you." She says, sounding nervous. "What is it, babe?" Anthony says, softening. "Mom, are you okay?" I ask worriedly. "I'm fine, honey. It's just, well... i- I'm pregnant." She says, nervously smiling. "Really! Oh my gosh that's great!" I say as my dad wraps her in a hug. "Oh honey this is wonderful." He says, glancing down to her stomach, putting his hand on it.

In one day, I've gone from no siblings to an older brother and an unborn, genderless sibling.
