Lincolns POV

Eliza has been acting very strange lately and I can't put my finger on what's wrong. We leave for our trip in a week and I am worried she will not feel well enough to go. I so want her to meet the family, they are going to love her very much. I'm the first one up this morning and I have got my love in my arms. She is cuddled in tight. She sleeps completely naked and it's one of my favorite things. I love to feel her soft skin tight against mine. Mmm I need to get my thoughts in check or I'm going to wake her up for some lovin. I'm still lost in my thoughts when she stirs and jumps out of my arms.
"I think I'm going to be sick" she says as she runs to the bathroom.
I grab her robe and rush after her. I cover her as I pull her hair back out of her face. She is stuck over the toilet for atleast 5 minutes. And there is nothing I can do except be here for her and rub her back. I keep racking my brain to see if she may have ate something wrong but we all ate the same meal last night and I feel fine. I am still thinking about it as I hear Nick come to the door and start talking.
"What's wrong with babygirl? Is there anything I can do?"
"She just woke up, rushed to the bathroom and has been heaving for about 5 minutes now. I'm not sure what's wrong but I think I may have a good guess. Love, when was the last time you had your monthly?"
"Ummm, I dont remember. They have never been regular so it's hard to keep track of them." She says as she closes her eyes, sits on the floor and puts her head on my shoulder.
"Nick I think you should run to the store quickly" I say trying not to sound hopeful. I know it is soon but it would be amazing to have a little one running around the house.

*20 minutes later*

Nick gets back with a bag loaded with pregnancy tests, looking quite frantic.
"Do you know how many different kinds there are? I wasnt sure which one to get so I got all of them".
I chuckle when I see atleast 20 tests in there.
"I don't think she will need that many. Do you not remember when your sister found out she was expecting? She only took 3 tests and they were all positive. Hey sweetheart, can you make it back to the bathroom and take this or will you need some help?"
"I can make it, let me get up. I really don't think that's it, I'm sure it's just a bug." She says as she gets paler, if that's even possible.
She looks terrified. We haven't talked to much about children. I know she loves them and would be an amazing mama but we haven't even talked about how many we all want, when we want them or anything of that nature. I am hoping she will be excited if she is and that she wants this.
"Babygirl, you need to come out of the bathroom now. Are you ok in there? If you don't come out, I will break this door down and come to you" I hear Nick threaten. It's been about 10 minutes and she refuses to come out or even talk to us.
"Nick, that is not going to make her want to open that door. Sweetheart, whatever that test says, we are here for you. I know we haven't discussed children, but I know both me and Nick want to have children with you and we want to fill our home with the pitter patter of little feet and all the love we can. Please come out and talk to us" I whisper the last part.

Elizas POV

I can't believe this. What if they don't want children? I would love to have a whole houseful of children but what about my loves? How would that even work? Would they be jealous of the other? Would they both be Dad no matter who was the father? How does this affect our future. What if they stop loving me? I have so many thoughts and questions. I hear them pacing in front of the door trying to get me to come out but I am terrified of what they will say. I stare down at the positive test in my hands and just start crying. I hear Nick get upset and threaten to break the door and that only upsets me more. All of a sudden I hear Lincs sweet voice and the words he says makes me want to rush into his arms. I open the door and pretty much just collapse into Linc and bury my head into his shoulder as I hand Nick the test.
"WHAT???? We are going to be Dads. This is one of the best days of my life. I can't wait to tell everyone. Mom and Dad are going to be so excited. Just wait until you tell your parents Linc, they are going to be grandparents again. I can't wait to see their faces." And Nick just keeps going until Linc stops him.
"Hold on Brother. Let's let the information sinc in first before we start planning the little ones whole life." Linc says with a laugh.
"Is this really what yall want? I do not ever want you to think I trapped y'all by getting pregnant".
"Excuse me" they say in unison.
"You could never trap us. We are yours for life and quite willingly I might add. Yes, a baby is always a blessing and I hope we have many more. I did hope we could wait until after marriage but I'm more than ok with this as well. We have both wanted children since we were teenagers. I hope we have many more as well. I'm even open to adopting a few. Also to answer your question, yes, we would both be Dad. There will never be, this is his child or this is my child. They will be ours" Nick says as he pulls me out of Lincs arms and into his. My heart is full. "I love you both so very much. And I can't wait to grow old, raise this little one and many more with you both."
