Baby

"Mom?" Alfie says into the phone, it's on speaker and Zoe is tapping her fingers together nervously.

"Yes, Alfie, dear?"

"Zoe and I have something to tell you. We-"

"I'm pregnant!" Zoe blurts out, interrupting Alfie.

"That is so great!"

--

"You have to tell him." Zoe says. She is wearing one of Alfie's jumpers so her bump, very small, but there, is hidden.

"But he is your brother!" Alfie whines.

"Yea, but he will take it better from you." Zoe says as she knocks on Joe and Caspar's door.

"Oh, yea." Alfie says sarcastically, "Hey, mate, I did your sister and she's pregnant now."

"I'm too tired for this! Whatever! Fine! I'll tell him."

"Alfie! Zoe! Come in, please. Joe is in the kitchen, cooking!" Caspar opens the door and gestures wildly.

Zoe, Alfie, and Caspar walk into the house and towards the kitchen. Joe is cooking something in a couple of pans.

"Hey, Zo! Hey Alfie!"

"Hi, Joe!" Zoe walks further into the kitchen finally able to smell what Joe is cooking, and she gags, "Oh my gosh! Bathroom, I need the bathroom!" She runs off the bathroom and Alfie quickly follows. Caspar brings Zoe a bottle of water after a few minutes and she uses a spare toothbrush to brush her teeth.

"Is my cooking really that bad?" Joe asks as they walk back into the kitchen.

"No, I came here to tell you something. I was going to tell you after dinner, but I am not very hungry anymore. Um, Joe I'm pregnant." Zoe says, sipping from the water bottle after she replies.

"Preg-pregnant?" Joe stutters.

"Yea, about thirteen weeks now." Zoe softly pats her stomach and Alfie smiles down at her.

"Pregnant?" Joe asks again.

"Yea, there is a little pointlessblogger or mini zoella growing in Zoe." Alfie doesn't take his eyes off of Zoe, his hand still in hers, and a fond tone in his voice.

"I don't know how to respond." Joe says slowly.

"You could say congratulations." Zoe says, concern lacing her tone.

"Congrats, mates." Caspar says weakly.

"Right, right! Sorry, no, sorry. It's just-wow-I mean, wow. Congratulations." Joe says, smiling at his sister and her husband, finally.

"It's great." Caspar says.

--

"Hello everybody! Alfie and I have an announcement that has been hidden for about fifteen weeks." Zoe says into the camera.

"Yea, it's really exciting."

"You probably have been noticing I have been making videos a little less than normal, it's because I haven't been feeling all that great."

"There is a reason, she isn't sick!" Alfie says.

"No, I'm pregnant!" Zoe does jazz hands and Alfie smiles a proud smile.

"She is fifteen weeks pregnant and we haven't picked out any names yet, so tell us in the comments what name you would pick for a boy and for a girl."

"What do you want Alfie? A boy or a girl?" Zoe looks at Alfie.

"I just want a healthy, happy baby."

"Alfie!" Zoe whines, "Answer the question!"

"I want a baby boy." His smiles still hasn't faded.

"I want a girl! What name would you guys give a girl? What names would you give a guy? Tells in the comments and on twitter with the hashtag zalfiebabyname."

"We would love to answer any questions you have, within reason of course!" Alfie says.

"Yea, alright! Bye!"
