Jenna and Julien were the happiest they had been since they could remember. They had an evening full of dancing, champagne (apple cider for Jenna), and good food. They were almost an hour into the reception, when they decided it was time. Julien turned to Jenna. "You ready?" he asked. Jenna nodded, smiling. "Babe, you have no fucking clue how excited I am. We're literally about to find out the sex of our baby! It's literally gonna determine a lot about our future." Jenna said. Julien smiled, picking up his glass, and clinking the top with a knife. Everyone stopped talking, and turned their heads. "So, first of all, I want to thank you all for being here. This evening is just beginning, and it's already been do much fun. However...Jenna and I have a huge announcment!" he looked at Jenna. She nodded. "So, Julien and I have been hiding a big secret from all of you, and the internet. For a while now, Julien and I have known....we're pregnant!" Jenna finally announced. Everyone's jaw dropped. Within seconds, everyone was cheering, congratulating them, and hugging them. Debby was in tears, and beyond excited, along with literally everything else. "Oh yeah and one more thing!" Julien called out. Everyone feel silent again to listen. "This isn't just a wedding...it's also a gender reveal!" he announced. Scattered gasps were heard among the guests. "Now, not a single person in this room knows the sex of the baby, not even me or Jenna! The only person that knows, is the person who made our cake." he explained. "Yeah, and basically we're going to cut into the cake, and if the cake is blue, it's a boy, if it's pink, it's a girl!" Jenna explain. Everyone cheered, and awaited the reveal. Jenna was almost shaking with excitement, as she and Julien went over to the beautifully decorated cake. Julien picked up the cake cutter, and Jenna put her hands over his, so they could both cut it. "Ready?" he whispered. "Oh hell yeah" Jenna whispered back. "Ready guys? Can we get a countdown?" Jenna called. The guests counted down. "3, 2, 1!" they counted. Jenna and Julien pressed the cutter into the cake. They wedged the slice out, and Jenna and Julien gasped. Everyone was silent with anticipation for a moment. They showed the guests the slice. The cake looked spongy, soft, and most importantly, a distinct, soft blue. "IT'S A BOY!" they announced. Cheers and congratulation filled the air. "Otter...we're having a little boy!" Jenna said, crying (happy tears of course). Julien pulled her in and kissed her. A little baby boy.
