"Lana Trager?" the nurse called.
Lana slowly got up and looked around for her old man. He had promised he would make it to the appointment and here she was about to go through the door and there was no sign of him. She sighed to herself knowing that it was to be expected, she did marry into the Son's of Anarchy after all.
Just as she reached the door ready to go in Gemma came rushing into the waiting area calling out for Lana to wait. She should have known better, she knew that if Tig was unable to make it then he would at least send Gemma.
Gemma reached her side and gave her a huge smile "Ready to do this mama?" she asked. Lana nodded and stepped through the door.
They were waiting for a couple of minutes for the ultrasound tech to make her way over. "Good morning Mrs Trager, I'm sorry for the delay, how are you feeling today?" the young girl asked with a smile. Lana told her "I'm good, excited to see my baby again but I have a request." the tech nodded so Lana explained "My husband and I are having a gender reveal party so could you not tell me and simply write it down and give it to my friend please?" the tech started to laugh "That sounds like a lot of fun Mrs Trager, of course I can do that for you." she said. Lana looked over at Gemma and noticed the eye roll making Lana bite her lip so she didn't laugh in the face of the annoyingly perky woman who was in the process of sticking the cold gel on her protruding stomach.
Lana held her breath as tears came to her eyes as she saw her baby appear on the screen. The tech turned the volume up and they were greeted with a rapid thump thump thump which made the gathering tears fall down her face. "That's my baby." she said getting emotional. Lana looked over at Gemma and noticed for once that the matriarch was letting her mask slip and was showing her own emotion at the scene before her. "That's my grand baby" she whispered as she grabbed Lana's hand.
The tech did as Lana asked and was writing the gender down on a slip of paper and putting it in an envelope as Lana was cleaning her belly and righting her clothes.
Lana left the hospital and let Gemma drive her back to TM promising to send the prospect for her car. Tig was going to pitch a fit that she had driven anyway so Gemma was doing her damnedest to stop it being any worse.
Once Gemma was sure Lana was settled and had the prospect answering her every whim Gemma left the lot to get the items she needed for the reveal. Her first stop was the army surplus store where she went straight to the counter and explained what she needed. With a smirk the clerk told her he could have that sorted in an hour. She then went to get the decorations and pick up the cake she had already ordered. She knew Lana was expecting the reveal to be in the cake but Gemma had a different plan. They were SAMCRO after all.
Lana was enjoying having the prospect do whatever she asked and was beginning to think of ways to torture the idiot. Deciding that her feet hurt she demanded he gave her a foot rub and was amazed that he actually started with no argument. She was moaning with relief when Tig and the boys came back. At first Tig was fuming at the sounds coming from his wife but it gave way to laughter when he saw what she had made the poor prospect do.
All the men stood around trying to hold their laughter once they realised that Lana Trager was a force to be reckoned with and she was taking the prospect for a ride. It was soon too much for Tig when he was laughing so hard he was doubled over with tears leaking from his eyes. Lana heard his laughter and immediately jumped up and made her way over to him kissing him deeply. "I missed you Tiggy." she said with a dopey smile. "What the hell dollface, you only saw me this morning?" he said confused "Yeah I know but I still missed you." she said giving him another kiss.
Tig wanted to make sure she was well rested so encouraged her to go to his dorm where she could lay down in peace. He was about to leave when she all but begged him to stay. Knowing he had a little time he agreed and shrugged out of his kutte, placing it on the chair before laying down next to her.
They both must have fallen asleep as before he knew it Jax was shaking him awake whispering "Ma's here, the party is ready to go when you are." Tig nodded and smiled thanking Jax and waited until he had left the room before gently waking Lana.
The second he said party is ready he watched as all evidence of sleepiness left her eyes and was instead replaced with excitement. She moved as quick as her growing belly would let her as she quickly showered and got dressed in the outfit she had agonised over the night before.
For once Tig was pleased with his self control, it took all of him not to jump her in the shower and make them late. Lana turned to face him once she was ready and he smiled at her "Ready to find out what this monster is?" he asked.
He chuckled as she grabbed his hand and attempted to drag him out to the bar.
Lana stopped and stared in amazement at what Gemma had managed to do, everywhere she looked there were light grey streamers and balloons and a giant cake. Lana made her way over and pulled Gemma into a hug, thanking her for what she had done. "No problem baby, anything for you and my grand baby." she said with a smile.
Lana was pulled into hug after hug by the members of SAMCRO and by the time it was over she was more than ready to really get the festivities on the go. Still believing Gemma had it in the cake she gathered everyone round and with Tig at her side cut into the cake fully expecting to see a flash of pink or blue. When all she saw was plain cake she looked at Gemma confused.
"Baby, this is a SAMCRO baby, did you really think I would let you find out with a cake?" she said laughing. Gemma then turned on her heel and made her way out to the lot where she had a table set up with 2 smoke grenades.
It was Tig's turn to get excited "I get to find out what my baby is with a big bang?" he asked bouncing on his toes. Gemma nodded and with a laugh from Lana they headed over to the table and grabbed one grenade each.
They looked at each other as Jax completed at countdown "3, 2, 1!" one 1 Lana and Tig threw their grenandes at the floor in a carefully marked out space. They all heard a loud bang followed by a haze of blue smoke.
"We're having a boy!" Tig shouted excited and grabbed Lana spinning her round. "We're having a prince of SAMCRO!"
