Emily's pov
What an amazing night, Alison gave me the prettiest gift and I had a blast with all my family. I'm sad I have to leave in a week. Charlotte stands up and says she has one more gift for us. She looks at Eliott in the eye, and I can see tears scrolling down her face. Nobody has no idea of what she's about to say.

C: I'm pregnant

Omg. Everyone jumps on her, hugs her, congratulates her. We are all shook, but so happy for her! We all congratulate her.

A: OMG, I'm gonna be an auntie!
C: no
A: what?
C: I'd like you to be its godmother
A: omg, I'd be honored!
C: and Jason its godfather
J: I'd love too. Wow can't believe my two sisters are moms, I need to hurry and find someone
G: you have us uncle Jas
L: yeah
J: of course you two monsters!

Jason takes the twins in his arms and cuddle them. He sits them on the couch and goes down on his knees so he can be to their level.

J: But you're going to have to share me
G: What with who?
L: We will never share you
J: girls, auntie Cece is pregnant, you're gonna have a cousin
L: Oh, well we don't want it
A: Girls, be nice
G: what? Why?
L: we don't want to share uncle Jas
E: okay enough, we'll discuss about it tomorrow. Time for bed girls.
G: can uncle jas put us to bed

I look at Jason and he nods yes. The girls say goodnight to everyone and Jason takes them to bed. I can hear Ali talking to Cece in the kitchen. I hide behind the wall and listen, to their conversation.

A: I'm really sorry Cece, I don't know what's up with them
C: no it's okay, they're still little and they're probably very tired as well
A: no but I feel bad, they shouldn't react like that
C: I'm fine really, don't apologize.
A: so how far along are you?
C: 12 weeks
A: nice, so you're gonna have a summer baby
C: yes and I'm so excited
A: I can't wait for you
C: so how about you?
A: what about me?
C: do you want other children?

I missed a breath I think as I'm waiting for Ali's answer, I don't know if I want other children, but if Ali wants too I might think about it.

A: I don't know, maybe
C: maybe?
A: well considering how the twins reacted to having a cousin, imagine how they'll react to a new sibling
C: don't think about that, do what will make you happy.
A: yeah

I take a quick look at them and I see Ali is looking down. Cece noticed me.

C: hi Em
E: hi girls
A: how long have you been listening?
E: I wasn't
A: Em I know you and the look on your face says otherwise
E: okay I was listening since the beginning

I look down, a bit ashamed and scratch the back of my neck

E: sorry, and by the way Cece, sorry for the girls
C: it's okay.

Everyone is slowly leaving as it's pretty mate already. Ali and I place the "Santa" gifts under the tree and we go to bed as well. I can't sleep tonight, I have too much on my mind. Does Ali really want another child? Ugh, I hate being like this but I need to know.

E: Ali, are you asleep?

I get no answer but a few seconds later, I feel her move. She turns around and looks at me in the eyes. We just stare at each other for a few seconds before one of us talks

A: you can't sleep either
E: no can't
A: what's keeping you awake love?
E: do you really want another child?
A: I don't know babe, maybe. Do you?
E: I don't know either, I love just having the twins but I wouldn't mind having a boy
A: yeah a cute boy with your cute face
E: I don't want it if it doesn't have your face
A: but I want to wait until you're out if the army
E: okay love
A: did we just decide to have another kiddo?
E: I think so
