"Uno Out!" I shouted ecstatic as my three friends groaned.

"That's the fifth time Laura. I'm not playing with your cheating ass anymore." Cindy said placing her stack of cards in the table.

It's been four months since my council session Ross Lynch. After our council session Ross and I decided to stay away from each other as much as possible I wasn't angry, it was a mutual agreement and quite frankly I find my days less stressed and angry and that's exactly what I needed for a healthy pregnancy.

Ross called once a month and he always made Pete accompany me to my check ups and Phillip drop me off. Though I declined Ross is Ross making him annoying and persistent.

Like last week, I tried getting away and rescheduling it to another time. Ross found out and called me telling me there's nothing that I could hide from him especially when it came to his kids.

Yes. The DNA test did come out the way I said it would, with Ross being the dad and ever since he's been protective.

Ms.Yale and I helped me and turns out she was right. I was unknowingly hurt and pissed at ross for getting me pregnant at such a young age even though I thought to myself I was fine.

I had called ross and told him how I felt and though I few snarky comments were tossed between us I think I've moved on and really come to aspect the fact that I'll be a mom

After I hit the second month in my second trimester Ross and I went to find the gender of our twins. And though few word were exchanged between us at the end of the day we were happy about the fact that we were going to soon welcome twin boys to the world.

And of course how could you be carrying such an important man's babies without the world knowing.

My face has been plastered on the cover of hundreds of tabloids and over social media for months calling the boys the luckiest babies in the world.

And funny enough even the magazine I work for cover the story.

"You want some chips Laur?" Cindy asked as she rummaged through my cupboards.

Its been months and I still don't know if Cindy and Will are together.

I know she's been spending time with him sleeping over at his place and they don't let Ross and I awkward situation affect them. But she hasn't confirmed or denied anything.

"Sadly no. Ross sent me last week a link about what eating too much junk can do to your pregnancy with a text saying how he trust that I'm making the right choices in my diet. Blah blah blah." I said stretching in my seat resting my feet on the table to elevate my swollen feet.

Damn pregnancy.

"I think its cute how protective he is." Wesley said.

Wesley is my really great friend that I met in college. She's one of my girl friends and she's a middle school English teacher.

"I mean, I've heard stories from some girls how they wish the father of the kids were with them during there pregnancy- and even though ross isn't with you he shows that he cares."

"I won't doubt that he cares. But I think he's more concerned about his kids. After all they're not together and its he's more concerned about making sure his kids are safe than laura. That's why I'm shipping her with the Assistant."
Meg said.

Meg is from Trinidad and I think she's the sassiest of us all. I met her at work till she was transferred to another branch in a different state and comes around from time to time.

We were originally a group of seven. Me, Cindy, Meg, Wesley, Louis and Flinn.

Till the only two boys, Louis and Flinn in our group decided that they were going to join the US army. Were Louis died and Wesley holds the engagement ring even to her by Flinn. Who we haven't seen in three years and calls rarely but Wes gets his mails and we know he's alright.

"Pete?" I asked scrunching my eyebrow in confusion.

Pete and I have been spending a lot of time together and since Ross has him accompanying me in my yoga classes and appointments we've become closer.

"Yes, have you seen the way he looks at you. Plus what man spends so much time with a lady whose carrying another man's child. " she smacks her lips
"scratch that his twins."

"It's either he really likes you "Meg continued "Or he wants that mama Juice."

The girls began squealing as I turned red.

They continued the topic till I kicked them out of my house. Even down the drive way they kept making noise having my neighbors look through there windows.

After they left I locked my doors and just as I was about to turn my TV on my phone rang.

"Hey baby girl!"

"Daddy!" I said excitedly answering my dad as I headed up the stars to retrieve a blanket as I already made up my mind that I was going to do some Riverdale binge watching.

Archie sexy Andrews here I come.

"Your pops just checking up on ya How's everything been?"

"If you're referring to the pregnancy, its going great. I on the other hand feel like a over stuffed Christmas Turkey." I replied making him chuckle

"I'm serious, Doc said it's because its a twin. Plus I have two months more of growth to do." I said as I pulled off my favorite blanket off my bed.

"Right your mom said you turned seven months last week." He said.

When my dad found out I was pregnant, I expected him to be angry and disappointed with me. But he had started crying saying how he can't believe he's going to be a papa... Though I cringed at the name he chose I ended up crying myself.

"And boy, do they love to eat." I chuckled as I made my way out the room walking down the stairs. " And the crav-" before i could finish my swollen feet got caught in the blanket making me Fall forward tripping down the stairs.

An ear piercing scream leaving my lips as I tumbled down the stairs hitting my head before everything went blank.
