Lynn's P.O.V. 

"Well, she isn't super exciting," Grayson says.

"Who?" I ask again.

"But you haven't seen her in a while," he says

"Who?" I repeat. 

"It's just my sister," he says.

"Really?" I ask getting more excited. 

"Yeah," he says.

"Awesome," I laugh.

Grayson gets out of the car and then walks over to my door, opening it for me. I turn to get out of the car and then I am stopped by him. He grabs the bottom of my shirt and lifts it up slightly.

He stares at my stomach and smiles, "You started showing a little bit. I noticed that you started wearing baggier shirts. You aren't showing that much, you know. It is enough to notice that you are pregnant but not really. I don't know."

"Well, I am at 12 weeks now, which is 3 months," I say.

He leans down and leaves a small kiss on my tiny rounding stomach, "No matter the gender, I am so grateful for you and this baby. I am so grateful for this tiny family."

I smile, "I love you so damn much." I laugh. He backs away and lets my shirt fall. I hop out of the truck and we walk into the airport with our fingers intertwined with each other. 

Almost right away, I spot Sean's tall figure and Lisa's small one next to him. I smile and point to them for Grayson. They are standing with their bags next to them, looking around.

Grayson starts to slowly jog over to them, halfway dragging me. 

"Dad! Mom!" Grayson shouts, slowing down.

Both of their heads look around for a couple more seconds until they spot us. Grayson's hand lets go of mine when we reach them as he pulls his dad into a hug and then his mom. I hug both of them lightly, too. 

"So, where is Cam?" Grayson asks. 

"She went to go get a water. There she is," Lisa says. 

I turn my head and see Cameron. Cameron looks at me and then waves and smiles. 

"Lynn, you look great. How have you been?" Lisa says.

"I have been good these last couple months," I say.

"That's good. You guys have been married for almost half of  a year, right?" Lisa says. We start walking towards the door and outside to the truck. 

"Almost 5 months," Grayson answers as we reach the truck. Grayson lifts his mom's and dad's and sister's stuff into the back.

We all pile into the truck and start on the 15-minute drive home.

"So, how has Ethan and Monica been," Sean asks.

Grayson and I look at each other.

"Things--Well, things just kinda happened," I explain slowly, "They aren't together anymore."

"Oh, no! What happened?" Lisa says.

"Uh," I say.

"Monica cheated and got knocked up by her ex," Grayson says, "Among other things." I look at Grayson and he just shrugs. 

"Oh my goodness," Lisa says, "How is he doing?"

"Considering this was like a couple weeks ago, he is doing better. Things are kinda rough for him, right now. We have been trying to help him out," I explain.
