A month later, Jessica's birthday.

"Come on baby we're going to be late." Sam said looking at his watch.

"Shh, I'm finishing my eyeliner!"

She walked out of the bathroom and he instantly felt pride. She was his beautiful wife. He took her arm and walked her out to the car, opening the door for her. While they were driving, his hand caressed her thighs. She laughed loudly as his hand tried to get further up her dress. Jessica lightly smacked at his hands. Sam put the car in park and went to Jessica's side, opening the door for her.

"Ooh pulling out all the stops."

"Shh and let me love you."

He held her hand as they walked in.

"Surprise!" Both of their families screamed.

"Oh my gosh!"

"Mommy!" Abby came running to Jessica and crashed into her legs. Jessica laughed and picked her up.

"Thank you everyone for coming! I love all of you!"

Jessica hugged Sam and leant in close to his ear.

"I'm 4 weeks pregnant."

She heard him gasp and when he pulled away he had tears in his eyes.

Jessica and Sam were slow dancing to 'their' song, Remember when by Alan Jackson.

Her head rest softly on his shoulder as he held her waist.

"You got pregnant the night you told me about the miscarriage."

"I know, I've done the math."

"I love you so much baby mama."

"I love you too baby daddy." She looked up to him and kissed him softly as the song ended.

"So what names are you thinking?"

"I don't know, you just told me."

"I was thinking of a Jr, if it's a boy." She said softly.

"I think he should have his own name."

"Maybe."

"But what if it's a girl Jessie?" He looked at her with a sparkle in his eyes.

She fell more in love with him in that moment. He was so into their children's lives, it always made her heart swell.

"We could stick with the A names if its a girl."

"Why not if it's a boy?"

"Because I'm thinking of the name Waylon for a boy."

"Oh I do like that."

"So many options. I really want a mamas boy."

"I really want another princess to spoil."

Jessica rolled her eyes and smiled.

"Don't jinx me."

Abby ran up to them and smiled.

"I wanna dance too!"

Sam scooped her up and continued to dance with Jessica.

"I love my girls."

"I love you Mr. Shepard." Where stories live. Discover now
