I sit on my bed nervously.
Debating on whether I should call Theo up here and look at the pregnancy test with me or if I should tell him after I look.
"Theo!" I shout.
What are you doing?!
Asking for you! I am your conscious.
"No. I'm not crazy!"
I hear chuckling and turn to see Theo.
"Maybe I should come back later?" he asks.
"Just get over here."
He smirks as he walks over.
I pat the seat next to me.
"I think I might be pregnant but I wanted to see my results with you," I say.
He smiles.
I pull the pregnancy test out of my purse.
"I'm looking now," I say.
I open my eyes to peek but I quickly give it to Theo.
"You look! I can't look," I say.
He chuckles.
I close my eyes as he looks.
"Shai. Open your eyes," Theo says reassuring.
I open them.
"We are having baby number three."
I kiss him wrapping my arms around his neck.
He laughs.
"That explains the ice cream and pickles craving."
I laugh.
"How are we going to tell the boys?" I ask.
"We should tell them after we find out the gender."
"That's a good idea," I say.
Theo grins and looks at me.
"I'm going to have another baby," I gush. "I don't know what it is, but I love the feeling of pregnancy."
Theo plants a soft kiss on my lips.
"I love you," he says.
He kisses my abdomen.
"We love you too," I say.
I kiss him again and pull away.
"Can we go grocery shopping?" I ask.
"I see the effects are taking on well."
"Oh, quiet you. Let's go," I say slipping on my shoes.
He laughs and we go to the boys so we can get ready.

The boys and I walk to their new school.
It's their first day.
We walk to their classroom to see their teacher, Mr. Emma.
"Hi Ian and Brent," she says.
They hide behind my legs.
"It's okay, I'll be back in a few hours," I say.
I get on my knees.
"You pwomise?" Ian asks.
"Pwomise, mommy," Brent adds.
"I promise."
They hug me and I kiss their heads.
They coyly walk into the classroom.
Tears brim in my eyes and slip out.
I wipe my face.
"Mrs. Taptiklis, it's okay. You'll see them in a few hours," Ms. Emma says.
"I know. I'm just emotional. I'm expecting."
She grins.
"That's great news," she says.
"Thank you," I say. "I'll see you later."
I walk out to my car and drive home.
When I get home, I sit on the couch.
I watch The Best Of Me.
I begin crying.
"What's wrong?" Theo asks walking into the living room.
"It's just so sweet!" I sob out.
Theo turns off the tv.
"I don't think Romance is the best genre of movies for you to be watching," he says.
He sits next to me and I sit on his lap.
He wraps his arms around me.
"Where do all the times go?" I ask.
"We add new times to our clock."
"So I guess it all takes time."

Like it?
To make up for the DH my cousin deleted I'm making a new one to go with Toby and Bea. It started out as a prequel to My first book but then I decided to change that.
Tell me if you like the idea.
