{The next Day}

Erika's pov
Jake sets up his laptop on the table.

Erika: Okay So Tell me when you're ready for me to come over

Jake: Okay

Shannon sets up a g7x to the laptop. She gets her camera ready.

Erika: So Shannon can you make sure that she doesn't see you?

Shannon: Okay

Erika: Great

Jake: She's calling!

I sit on the kitchen counter facing Jake. He takes a deep breath and answers.

Jake: Hey Mom!

Pam: Hey Jakey! Is everything okay?

Jake: Yeah Everything's Fine

Pam: Where are you?

Jake: Not important but I do have to tell you something, well we have to tell you something.

Pam: We?

He waves me over. I walk over and sit next to him.

Erika: Hey Pam

Pam: Oh hi Erika, how are you?

Erika: Good thanks, how are you?

Pam: Great, I'm just a little confused.

Jake: 3...2...1

J&E: You're gonna be a grandma!

Pam: What?! Y-you're pregnant?! *smiles*

Jake: She is

Pam: Oh my gosh guys!

She starts crying.

Jake: oh and it's twins

Pam: Two?! Oh my gosh! Congratulations!

I rest my arm on Jakes shoulder.

Pam: Can I see your bump? How far along are you?

Erika: 5-6 weeks

I stand up and pull the chair out. I lift my shirt up.

Pam: Awwwe that's so cute! I thought y'all were pranking me!

Erika: Nope there's very much Twins in there, we have had our first appointment and we heard the heartbeat and we have our first ultrasound next week!

Pam: Awwwe I'm honestly so happy for you guys.

Jake: Thank you mom

Erika: Thanks Pam

We talk for a little longer.

Jake: We Bette go Mom, we've gotta call Angel.

Pam: Okay, Bye!

Erika: ily!

Pam: ily!

Jake: ily!

I laugh. They hang up.

Erika: She took that very well

Jake: Yeah, What Do you think your mom will do?

Erika: She'll come off as happy but she'll be a little disappointed and confused.

Jake: Why disappointed?

Erika: Because I had so many plans for this year, but I mean I am old enough. It's a little different for you though.

Jake smiles.

Erika: She's calling!

Jake jumps up and Shannon starts rolling again.

Erika: Hi Mom

Angel: Hey Erika

Erika: Is Dan around?

Angel: Yeah let me see if I can find him, Dan!!!

Dan: What?!

Angel: Erika's on the phone! I think his coming.

Erika: Okay

After a few seconds Dan sits down next to my mom.

Dan: Hey sweetie

Erika: Hi Dan

Angel: Everything's Okay right Erika?

Erika: Yes Everything is quite amazing actually. Kind of like a dream.

Angel: There's something you need to tell us?

Erika: Actually we need to tell you

Jake sits next to me.

Jake: Hey Angel, Dan

Angel: Oh hi Jake

Dan: Hi Jake

My moms facial expression changes since I can tell she's catching on. I look at Jake and he smiles.

Jake: *whispers* You say it

Erika: I'm pregnant

A tear falls from my eye. Jake puts his arm around me. I smile and wipe my tear.

Dan: Oh my gosh guys Congratulations!

Angel: You're gonna have a baby?!

Jake: Babies.

Angel: Twins?!

I nod.

Angel: Congratulations!

Erika: Thank you!

Jake: Thanks!

Erika: Oh and you can't tell anyone! You guys are coming down in a few weeks and I'll tell everyone then.

Angel: What about the internet, they don't even know you two a together!

Erika: Well we might do a Kylie Jenner, not sure yet. I don't want to stress over it and it would be so much less stress if I never announced!

Angel: I know you guys will make the right decision.

Dan: You're both very smart and know what you're doing.
