Y/N'S POV

Today was a good day. Dan & I enjoying each other's company, finishing up our wedding plans so we can give them to our wedding planner & Dan talking to the baby as he was picking out baby names. I know I'm only about a month now, but I told him that he could name the baby. Laughing and joking around all day up until the doorbell rang. I giggled. "You gon leave my little pooh-bear alone.." I poked him in his chest playfully. "My baby's barely in his first trimester and you already talking about him.." Dan chuckled. "I'm just sayin...if he's anything like you, I'ma be in jail by the time he turns 10.." I playfully rolled my eyes & got up off the sofa. "Whaaatever!"

I opened the door & all the happiness and excitement in me just vanished. She looked up & smiled. "Hi.." I rolled my eyes & attempted to close the door. "Y/n wait!" I stopped, turned to her & folded my arms. "What? What d'ya want? Why the fuck are you on my damn doorstep!?" "Babe...who's at the do--" He stopped himself. "Ohhhh.." He walked off. "Y/n, why do you hate me!!" She whined. I rolled my eyes. "She doesn't hate you.." I turned around & cut my eyes at him, which he ignored. "She hates Mr. Y/Ln.." I looked back to her & she was looking at me with pouty eyes. "Don't look at me like that!" I sighed & walked away. Dig walked to the door. "Come in Ivory.." "Seriously!?" I yelled as I saw her looking around.

She looked at me, at Dan's laptop, the little sketch of what I'd imagine the baby would look like, then back at me. She covered her mouth. "Shit.." Dig murmured as he closed the door. "How far along?" She simply asked. "About a month.." I heavily sighed & sat on the sofa. "Just don't tell anyone, okay?" She nodded & zipped her lips. "I'm just praying that I don't show until after the wedding.." "You have a date?" I nodded. "May 2. We send out invitations, my mom made me send your mom one.." She smiled. "We had to move it up because he..." I pointed at Diggy. "Just couldn't wait.." He smiled. "Wait? Wait for what?" "The reason we having this conversation now.." She giggled & looked at Diggy. "Just like a guy to hurry a marriage so they can have kids.." He chuckled. "Off the record, I had a huge crush on you." The fuck, bitch? While I'm in the fuckin room?? "I even imagined having kids with you.." "THAT'S IT!!!" I yelled. "GET THE FUCK OUT!!" I pointed at the door. "Baby, calm down.." Diggy told me as I charged toward her. Ivory eased to the door as Dig held me back. "Seriously Ivory!?" He said. "You want her to like you right?" "Look, I'm sorry...I'm a huge fans, Jetsetter for life.." She innocently smiled. "I just thought I'd say that I have..." She cleared her throat. "Had a huge crush on you." She sighed. "I was always so scared to talk to you on social media. Must Jetsetters are crazy.." He sighed. "You stayin for dinner or no?" I looked up at him.

Later on

"Not bad Simmons, not bad.." Ivory nodded as she ate. He chuckled. "We knew you could cook, but I didn't think it'd be any good.." "Yeah thanks.." He continued to laughed she smiled, then looked at me as I ate silently. Dig looked at me & rubbed my leg. "You alright?" He asked. I cut my eyes at him, then glanced over at Ivory. "Would you stop staring me down!!" She looked away, then right back. "Why do you hate me!?" I sighed heavily & rolled my eyes. "You're getting on my nerves.." "Then tell her!" Dan barked. "I'm getting of this shit Y/n! You bein real fuckin childish right now!!" He got up & left. I sighed as I walked him walk down the hall.

"Damnit!" I slammed my hands on the table. Ivory jumped. "You ruined everything!!!" I yelled. "Me??" "Yes you!!" I yelled again. "You and that fuck boy you call a father ruined everything!!" She looked down. "We were happy! W-we...we were a family! My mom was happy....HAPPY!!! You think she's fuckin happy now, knowing that you exist!? If it wasn't for you, my parent wouldn't've gotten a fuckin divorce!" "Babe!" I looked up. Dan lifted his hands, palms down & lowered them slowly. I sighed, sniffled & got up. "You can let yourself out.." I pushed pass Dig & ran upstairs.

IVORY'S POV

"Does she hate me now?" I sighed. "No, she does not hate you...she never has." "I don't believe you.." I got up. "I should go.." "And how you gon get back??" Diggy asked me. I shrugged. "Walk.." He chuckled & grabbed his keys. "Let's go." Diggy is so sweet & he's happy, Y/n makes him happy & their baby. Why can't she just let this go? I didn't ask to be conceived, all I wanted to do was meet the siblings I never knew I had..

About 2 months later ; March 20, 2016

"Are you gonna come back every time you get a break from school?" Ms. Quiana laughed. I smiled. "I mean, Aionna's due next month and Diggy's birthday is tomorrow...and I still haven't gotten the baby anything so I'm back.." My smile got bigger. "IVY!!!" I turned to Aionna waddling over to me. She hugged me. She's really strong. I groaned. "I thought I heard you in here. When you get here?" "Last night.." She smiled. The sister that actually likes me. Feels nice to be liked. "Aren't you suppose to be on bed rest?" "If I do that, I'll be asleep all day..so I refuse to be on bed rest!" She pouted & stomped her feet. "I thought I heard a big crybaby in here..." Aionna folded her arms. I giggled. "Hey Xavier.." "Sup?" He nodded. "Bed!" He pointed to Aionna's room. She pouted again. "But I don't wanna!" "Now Aionna!" She flared her nose & stormed off. He looked at Ms. Quiana and I & shook his head, then walked behind her. "I guess he's daddy ready.." I giggled. Ms. Quiana laughed as well.

That night

"Happy early birthday!!" I smiled. He chuckled & hugged me. "Thanks Ivory.." "Since I know you'll probably be with Y/n all day tomorrow." He nodded. "Thanks.." "And your present....may I?" I gestured to his laptop. He shrugged. "Go right ahead." I grabbed his laptop, added a new tab, opened up YouTube & typed in "Happy Birthday To Our General!". I made a video collage of JetSetters saying Happy Birthday, what he means to them, how proud they are of him & all that good stuff. I even made one at the end. It took me literally a month to finish that video collage, it was worth it though. "See ya the day after tomorrow.." I smiled, got up & walked toward the door. "Ivory wait!" I stopped & turned around. Wow....Y/n is glowing. She's so pretty. I smiled.
