I walked around the room and talked to some of my family members. Most of them just wanted to know why the hell I was throwing a party with someone they had only met a handful of times. Every answer was a little different though, ranging between "it's a secret" to "guess you'll just have to wait and find out" to even "aliens made us do it" to a few of my friends that would actually get a kick out of that. It had mostly been a social gathering so far, just taking and things with family but we had games planned and oh was it gonna be wild. I sat at the table and watched Vinny get things ready. When he was done we had everyone sit down at their tables and get ready to play. It was simple.

"Okay so we know traditional party games can be kind of stupid but we thought this would be funny and it gets everyone to kind if work together. Each of you has a few different puzzle pieces and you have to put your puzzles together with the other people at your table. Talk to each other and figure it out and we'll be around to see if you guys need help with them."

They all chatted as they started. Vinny and I waited, send each other knowing glances. The puzzles were pretty simple, ones we had made for our guests that had different things on them. A few had stuff that we liked, a few of Vinny's were different drum, a few of mine also music related but were my own art. And one of them, the picture ended up being a congratulations banner. But we didn't want to give anything away to early so the table that for done first we decided would get a prize. I looked at vin.

"Wanna walk around now?"

He nodded.

"I think that's a good idea, yeah."

We both split off in opposite directions. I wound up at a table first with my mom and a few of Vinny's friends. We had told everyone to sit with people they'd never met or talked to before so they'd be forced to network. I stood behind my mom and looked down.

"Things going good over here so far?"

A few of them frowned, moving pieces around.

"I think so, can we ask you for help?"

I smiled.

"We decided we can tell you what the picture is supposed to be but we can't actually put the puzzle together with you."

My mom looked up at me.

"And what's this supposed to be?"

I leaned down.

"What did I try to play in highschool?"

She thought for a second before it hit her.

"It's a guitar!"

I laughed a little before standing up.

"Good luck."

I snatched a quick glance from vin from across the room as we both moved to new tables. I made my way over to the congrats table, standing behind Vinny's mom now.

"You guys doing alright over here?"

She had a wide smile on her face as they worked quickly to out the pieces together.

"This is a piece of cake."

One of my friends said cockily.

"Look, it says congratulations!"

She said loudly. Then she looked up at me confused and I raised my brows at her.

"That it does."

I looked over at vin.

"Well it appears we have a winner. You all can keep putting your puzzles together if you want but we do have a  prize for our first place when all of you are done. Second place too."

Then my mom's hand shot into the air.

"We're done too!"

Vinny and I exchanged knowing glances as I went over and looked at it.

"Guess that clue really helped."

I nudged and she smiled widely at me.

"What's the prize?"

I laughed.

"Wait till everyone else is done."

I continued walking around, helping tables out until everyone had their puzzles done. After we finished vin and I walked back to the front table and grabbed two bags, one blue and one pink.

"Okay, since the tables with our moms were the winners we're gonna have them two come up here and open the gifts. Don't worry, it's a gift for everyone but we want all of you to see what they got."

I smirked as our moms sent looks to each other, walking up to us. I handed my mom the pink one and Vinny handed his mom the blue one.

"Okay mommy, open it."

He said, looking between them. In all honesty we had rigged the game so they would win but had back up gifts in case they didnt. They both pulled out a t-shirt each.

"Read it out loud."

I said looking at their reactions.

"I love my grandbaby."

They both said at the same time. My mom's mouth dropped open immediately.

"You're not?!"

I nodded, laughing a little bit. She jumped up and down before pulling me into a hug.

"Oh my God!"

She pulled away and looked me up and down before giving me another hug.

"I'm gonna be a grandma!"

I nodded, looking over at Vinny's mom.

"I'm gonna be a grandma?"

She asked with a wide smile on her face and he nodded.

"Yeah mom."

He had a wide smile on his face too. She looked back over the shirt before she pulled him in for a hug.

"Now we get to show a new generation how to make fresh pasta."

She joked, sending me a wink. We had made home made spaghetti and meatballs every Christmas since I met him. When they both pulled away from us Everyone started clapping. Then our moms turned and hugged each other.

"We get to be grandma's together!"

My mom said excitedly, pulling away and putting the shirt on over the one she was already wearing. I laughed at her as she hugged Vinny.

"Thank you for giving me a grandbaby."

He rubbed her back gently before she pulled away, his mom coming and giving me a hug too.

"It was bound to happen eventually right?"

He joked and I shook my head. My mom nudged his arm.

"Well you've only been friends since you were five, no big deal."

I looked around the room at people taking pictures and smiling at us and chatting amongst themselves.

"So the cats out of the bag. We wanted to tell you all at once. Yes Vinny and I are expecting. We had the first doctors appointment two weeks ago and our expected due date is November."

Vinny pulled me into his side as our moms went back to their seats.

"We also don't really have any other big games planned but you're welcome to stay and socialize and eat more."

He joked, motioning to the table of food that hadn't been emptied yet. They all went back to talking amongst themselves and Vinny looked down at me. Kissing the top of my head.

"I can't wait to co parent this baby with you."

I looked up at him and kissed him gently, looking endearingly at him.

"Me too."
