I smiled as I opened the box from Amanda. We had been dating for six months now and we were going to marry in nine months. Amanda had proposed last week. She had bought me another gift. Amanda was the best partner ever and that was what I told people, especially my students after they had caught Amanda and I snogging one day in the music office when they were looking for me.

Amanda made me feel confident in myself and my body. I allowed myself to show off the prostheitc leg and I liked being able to see it underneath the skirts that I wore to show it off. I tore off the wrapping paper and laughed when I saw that it was another mermaid tail from Amanda. I now had two of them from her.

I looked carefully at it. It looked different. I laughed when I saw that it was missing a part of it's left fin, just like how I was missing most of my left leg.

"Do you like it?" Amanda asked nervously.

"I love it," I replied. "Thank you, babe. I'll have to try this out when we go swimming tomorrow afternoon."

Amanda smiled and I kissed her softly. Her hand wandered down to my hip and I put down the mermaid tail she had given me. We were making love more often, real love, and I loved it. Amanda was incredibly loving in bed and she respected what I wanted and if I wasn't in the mood to have sex. I knew I wasn't in the mood tonight. I didn't feel sexy and there was a good reason for that.

I had decided that I wanted to have children and I began the process a month ago. I had taken a pregnancy test before Amanda and I had gotten in bed. I was pregnant, only four weeks along though but I was pregnant still. I was extremely happy and I needed to tell Amanda my news. The baby would be hers as well. She didn't know that I had chosen a sperm donor that looked like a male version of her. Our baby would look like both of their mothers.

"Amanda, I did a pregnancy test earlier today, when I was getting ready for bed. Guess what it said," I spoke, keeping a neutral expression to not give away the news. Amanda's eyes widened with realization and her jaw dropped.

"You're pregnant?" She asked, her eyes flicking down to my bare stomach. All I was wearing to bed that night was a sports bra and a pair of comfy shorts. I nodded, a smile over taking my face.

"I am," I confirmed. "We're going to be mothers. I'm going to be due right around our wedding date."

"We'll just have to get married sooner or push back the wedding for a while," Amanda replied. Her hand came to rest on my stomach. "We're going to be parents, babe."

She grinned and she leaned down, pressing her lips against my stomach underneath my belly button. Amanda came to rest beside me in the bed, her hand still on my stomach. "I can't believe you're considering me our baby's other mother already."

"We've been dating for six months, 'Manda. Of course you're going to be our child's second mother. Our baby could even end up looking like the both of us. I chose a sperm donor that looks like you, babe."

Amanda grinned. "You're amazing," she said, planting a kiss on my lips. I kissed her back softly. "I love you so much."

"I love you too," I replied, smiling myself. I yawned and I turned so I was on my side. Amanda pulled me close to her and I placed my head on her bare chest.

Amanda felt comfortable in herself now, because of me loving her birthmark and everything about her body. She would go out and she went to work without makeup on now. School had just ended for the school year today, marking the end of Amanda's first year teaching at our school.

"You ready to go to bed now or would you rather celebrate that we're going to be parents?" Amanda asked, a smirk stretching across her face. Her hand came up dangerously close to my breast. I let her feel around for the nipple and moaned softly.

"I want to celebrate us being pregnant and the fact we're going to be parents in thirty six weeks," I replied, smirking back at her.

Thirty five weeks later, Alesha had gone into labor at school but our baby had come too soon to get to the hospital.

Simon helped to deliver our baby girl in the music department office on the floor. Five minutes later, an ambulance arrived with EMTs and Alesha got to cut the umbilical cord herself.

She was absolutely amazed at the fact she had made a baby and our daughter was gorgeous. We named her Ruby and we laid in bed with her the night Alesha had been released from hospital with our daughter.

"She's perfect, babe," Alesha said softly, looking down at our sleeping daughter on her bare chest.

"She is and she looks just like you, Alesha," I replied. Ruby was completely naked on Alesha's chest, allowing us a good look at her tiny body. She had dimples on her bum, just like her mother did and she had her mother's long legs.

Her hair was Alesha's but we had discovered that she had my eyes, which were the same shade as the sperm donor's. She had her mother's long fingers and arms. Her torso was mine though, short with freckles on it.

We had asked for genetic testing to be done on her while she was in utero and all of the tests that had been done had come back negative and she had no trace of a port wine stain on her body.

She stirred in her sleep a little and blew out a soft exhale, snoring like her mother.

"She snores like you do, babe," I joked. "She's so much like you, Alesha."

"I'm scared that we aren't going to be good parents to her. We're both thirty one, Amanda. Is that too young to be parents?" Alesha asked worriedly.

"We'll be fine, Alesha. I promise. We're going to be learning. All parents go through it when they have their first born and we aren't too young. There are girls out there who are getting pregnant as teenagers," I replied.

"You're carrying our second though. I don't ever want to go through the pain of giving birth again," Alesha said, grinning. "I'm good with only once."

"I'll carry the second then," I agreed. "And the third, if we want three children."

"Let's wait a while before we have a second baby. I want Ruby to be at least a year old before we start the process again of trying to find a sperm donor and getting pregnant," Alesha replied.

She smiled as Ruby leaned down to her mother's nipple in her sleep, taking it in her mouth lazily and trying to nurse.

"Is she actually getting any milk from you right now?" I asked.

"No, she's not. I don't feel any coming out," Alesha replied. "Scratch that. She is nursing in her sleep."

Breastmilk dribbled out of Ruby's little mouth as she nursed while she was asleep. Her eyes opened blearily and she looked at what she was doing, looking a little surprised at herself.

Alesha giggled at it and she supported Ruby's head as she nursed.

I rested my head on Alesha's shoulder, watching Ruby nurse from her mother's breast. "I love you so much, Alesha. You're amazing for carrying our first baby and agreeing to have a baby when we're only engaged."

"I love you too, Amanda," Alesha replied. "Wonder if she'll be a good swimmer."

"If she's anything like her mother, she is."
