Kidd, "Did Mills tell you."
Brett, "Yes I should take some blood work just to make sure."
Kidd, "Brett, there's no need."
Brett, "Well indulge me."
I allow Brett to take my blood. She told me that she will drop it off at Med it would be analyzed before the end of shift. The shift was slow 81 only went on a few calls. Squad 3 and Engine 51 were in quarters nothing was really exciting happening due to the fact it was raining. Ambo 61 had finally returned to quarter.
Brett, "Kidd come with me."
I follow her to the bathroom before she spoke I looked through every stall to make sure that we were alone.
Kidd, "Brett I don't think I want to know."
Brett, " You're perfectly fine."
Kidd, "I am? You mean I got myself all worked up for nothing."
Brett, "Yep, and also you're pregnant."
Kidd, "What."
Brett, "You're pregnant."
Kidd, "Oh my god, Don't say a word."
Brett, "My lips are sealed."

Then my door open I turned around. "Stella."
She sat on the my bed.
Kelly, "What's up. I've been thinking about using my furlough days."
Stella, "Kelly."
Kelly, "How many furlough days do you have."
Stella, "Kelly I'm pregnant."
I stop talking immediately and just stared at her.
Stella, "Kelly are you okay."
My eyes fill with tears I got up and sat next to her on the bed. I wrapped my arms around her and said, "I'm so excited."
Then rubbed her belly I leaned my head talk to the baby.
Kelly, "How far along are you."
Stella, "Brett said 12 weeks."
Kelly, "Little baby Max is going to be a big brother."

Stella POV
After the shift, Kelly and I went to MED to check on the baby.
Dr. Manning, "Okay the gel its a bit cold. This is the baby head, facial features are starting to come in, the baby has ten fingers and ten toes, arms and legs have grown, this is the kidney, stomach, lungs, and heart. Let's listen to the heartbeat.
Kelly, "Wow is it too early to find out the sex."
Manning, "We could try but it is best to until between 16 to 20 weeks for more accuracy. So Stella your job I'm recommending light-duty no running into buildings."
Stella, "I know."
Manning, "Remember to take your Prenatal Vitamins and other Multivitamins, I will see you next month.
We got into car and drove home.
Kelly, "Hey are you okay."
Stella, "I'm okay but this is really happening."
He grabbed my hand and kiss it." I'm not worried. Let's go tell BabyBoy."
We hold hands walked into the apartment. Max and Jennifer were already there waiting for us.

Stella, "Max, Mama, and Dada have a surprise for you."
Max, "Oh really."
Kelly, "Yep Bud."
I hand him a picture of the baby's ultrasound. His facial expression was of confusion.
Max, "Dada what is it."
Kelly laughed, "Bud it's a picture of a baby brother or sister."
Max, "Ok Where's the baby."
Stella, "In Mama's belly."
Max, "What."
