Raven's POV

The doorbell rings which startles me.

"Babe, can you get that! I got my hands full!" Marilyn yells out from the kitchen. I tug at my light blue dress. I fix up my hair in the mirror and walk over to the front door. I open it and Zim, Ash, Seth, Twiggy, and Ginger come in.

"How are you?" Zim says and hugs me.

"Raven! Haven't seen you in awhile!" Twiggy says. They all give me hugs and I lead them to the living room.

"Brian is making dinner, it should be ready in a bit. Thanks for coming!" I say and smile at them. They nod. I take a seat next to the couches.

"Uh, I wanna tour the house, you idiot!" Twiggy says. I giggle and get up.

"Well, come on." They get up but Ash stays cradling Seth.

"You guys go ahead," Ash says. Zim smiles at her and nods.

"Alright, this is the dining room." I say and gesture to the dining room with windows surrounding it letting beautiful sunlight in. "Kitchen, hi, babe." I give Brian a quick kiss.

"Hi!" Marilyn says. He wipes his hands on his apron.

"Nice get up. Never thought the God of Fuck would be here cooking a chicken." Ginger remarks. The guys snicker. Marilyn throws a wooden spoon at him. I pick it up and slap Marilyn with it.

"No bullying, Ginger. And no throwing things, Brian." I scold. "Follow me." I make my way down the hall. I open the bathroom door. It's lot by only a dim light. "Bathroom." I go to the two other rooms. "Masters and guest. Upstairs is the loft."

"Cool. Nice little house." Twiggy compliments. I nod and smile at him.

"Come on, I think food is ready." I say. We all sit in the dining room. Brian already has our food setup once we get there. We eat and talk about the honeymoon and such. Just catching up. The talking dies down towards the finishing of our food. I take this opportunity. I clear my throat and straighten my posture. I slip my hand into Marilyn's. I look over to him and he gives me a nod and smile. "Guys, I have some news." I begin. They look up from their plates.

"Yeah?" Twiggy asks breaking the tension.

"I- well, I'm pregnant." There is a fine line of silence. I look down at my lap. Marilyn rubs my back to ease me.

"Are you serious?" Ash says in a happy tone. I look up to her and see her grinning. "Awe, that is too cute!" she squeals.

"Congrats, Brian and Raven." Ginger says.

"Yeah, congrats." Twiggy says. I look into Jeordie's eyes and find a hint of sadness. "Well, good luck with a tiny Marilyn." He says and smirks.

"That is some good news. Trust me, it might seem fun at first but Jesus Christ." Zim says and sighs. "You get really tired."

"You get tired? Oh, come on!" Ash says. We laugh and Brian gets up to pick up the plates.

"Thanks, babe." I say as he picks up mine. He winks and smiles. He picks up Twiggy's.

"Yeah, thanks, babe." Twiggy says giggling. I punch him on the shoulder and he pouts.

"No!" I say to him. Twiggy whimpers like a puppy.

"Well, we should be heading out. It's getting late, and we don't Seth to start getting fussy." Ash says and cradles her baby. Zim and Ash rise and Brian and I say our goodbyes to them.

"Ready, Twigs?" Ginger asks. Twiggy crosses his arms in stubbornness.

"No!" he shouts.

"Come on. It's getting late." I two Twiggy and rub his shoulder.

"Yeah, don't want to keep the Warner's up?" Ginger asks. Twiggy says and leaves with Ginger.

"Goodbye." I say to them, and hug them each.

"Bye, Marilyn and Raven!" they both say. I close the door and turn to my love.

"Come on. Lets go to bed." He says to me and kisses my forehead.
