Barbs dropped me off back at my home with me still kind of shaken up about the whole thing with Matt and Ellie.

She tried to get me to speak about it, but I didn't give in and only shoved away at her questions. I was so happy to be home, hoping that Gavin would be inside.

Barbs helped me with the three bags as we rushed up the steps. The door was unlocked, signaling Gavin was home and I smiled brightly when I saw him perched on our sofa, watching some type of action film.

"Jesus, what'd you guys get? The whole mall?" Gavin stood up and grabbed the bag I was carrying while taking Barbs' as well.

"Necessities, Mr.Free." Barbara laughed. Gavin looked into all the bags and nodded.

"I wish I could've went," He mumbled. "I got my tux though and so did Geoff and Michael." He told me as he placed the bags next to the couch. I really did wish he came to, so that we could figure out our children's dress style, but Barbs seemed so happy to help that I'm glad she was with me.

"Well, that's good. After the women alter my dress for a four month pregnant woman, I can pick it up." I smiled.

"By the way, Michael and Lindsay are coming over in a little bit." Gavin informed me as I was making my way to the fridge to refill my hunger. What I was really trying to do though was try to distract myself from Matt's unsuspected arrival. I still couldn't believe what happened today and how one of my friend's was dating an enemy of mine. If only I wasn't pregnant...I could use a well-deserved drink.

"Awesome." I simply said before pulling out a small cup of yogurt. Barbs took the liberty of seating herself at the island, her blue eyes shining in a cute way. I could tell the shopping, wedding, and anything to do with my babies had her excited.

"Michael's going to help me undo the screws on the bed and take it to the garage below. They're also bringing some paint over so we can do the baby room. They wanted to help." He grinned and I couldn't help but feel happy about this. I was dying to do the babies' room--to really design and paint it the way Gavin and I would like.

"Can I help?" Barbara asked.

"Yeah! I have a feeling after the bed being ripped apart, the boys will leave the rest to the women." I said, earning an amused eye roll from Gavin.

"You don't have to." Barbs told me, but I shook my head. Pregnancy won't stop me from doing what I wanted.

"No way. I am helping. It's my babies' nursery." I told her as I licked the spoon of strawberry yogurt. Gavin was rummaging through the shopping bags, obviously intrigued by the many clothing items we decided to buy. It was adorable watching him study each article of clothing. "Find one you like?" I asked him, raising an eyebrow.

"You got so many! Does our daughter really need a tutu?" He lifted out a pale pink and white small, scruffy tutu. I stifled a laugh as I remembered Barbara begging and pleading for me to just get it. I didn't like it, but I said it would be a present from my daughter's Auntie Barbs.

"I didn't pick that out." I laughed, scooping another glob of yogurt into my spoon.

"I did," Barbs said and giggled when Gavin scrunched his nose and tossed it back into the bag. "Every girl needs to have a tutu when they are young. That's for age 2, I think." She grabbed it and checked the tag in the back.

"My girl isn't going to be into Disney princesses and unicorns," Gavin shook his head, coming around the counter to where I was, still staring at Barbs and the dreaded tutu. "She'll be a tomboy and enjoy video games, hopefully."

"What if she wants to dress like a princess and think about unicorns? You gonna stop her?" I asked him, turning to face him as I smirked and licked my spoon.
