"You got another package from amazon." Grayson said walking into our room and laying down beside me. "Which is odd because you're not supposed to be looking at any kind of screen, let alone online shopping."

"I do it with my eyes closed, I promise." I lied, taking the box from him and putting it on my nightstand.

"Right." He laughed, kissing the top of my head. "What do you keep buying anyway?"

"That's for me to know and you to find out." I smirked. I was ordering stuff to help me tell him that he was going to be a dad. And stuff to tell Ethan. And stuff to tell my mom. And stuff to tell other people as well.

"Yeah okay." He said, kissing my head again. "I'm getting ready to go record the podcast, you going to be okay alone for about an hour and a half."

"Yeah. I'll be fine. I'll probably just take a nap anyway." I said, already 'falling asleep.'

"Alright. I love you. Text me if you need anything." He said, walking out of the room.

"I love you too."

I waited until the door closed before getting up out of the bed and getting all of my boxes together before getting back in the bed.

I ordered a bunch of cute and kind of cheesy onesies and I was going to pack them all into present bags with a bunch of baby socks and pacifiers and other things that I could help myself from buying.

It took me about an hour to get everything the way that I wanted and then another thirty minutes to get them packed in the bags perfectly.

I heard the front door open and the boys walking in, just as I finished packing the bah for my best friend, I'm going to give it to her when she comes to visit.

I grabbed the gift bags for Ethan and Grayson and walked out into the kitchen.

"What are you doing? You're supposed to be in bed." Grayson asked, rushing over to me.

"Relax, it's been a week." I sighed, plopping both bags down on the island.

"What's that?" They asked at the same time.

"Presents for being the greatest care takers in the world." I said, moving slightly to the side so that the camera that I set up would be able to see both of their reactions.

"Really?" Ethan asked, excitedly.

"No." I said laughing. "Just open them."

I watched as the both carefully took the tissue paper out of the bag and laid it on the counter. Ethan looked in his bad and his eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

Grayson looked in his bag, pulled it away from his face, and looked in it again. This time, tears welling up in his eyes.

"My dad's taken but you should see my uncle." Ethan read, confusion in his voice. "What does that even mean?"

"God Ethan," Grayson expressed, standing up and walking towards me. "You're really an idiot sometimes."

Grayson wrapped his arms around me tightly, while kissing the top of my head.

"Wait....is this...are you?" He asked looking at the shirt and then dumping out the rest of the stuff in the bag and looking through it.

"When did you find out?" Grayson asked, loosening grip on me, but leaving one arm around my waist.

"At the hospital." I said laying my head on his chest.

"Wait, is that why you passed out?" He asked, and I nodded.

"Holy shit I'm going to be an uncle!" Ethan yelled, after the initial shock and confusion wore off.

He then ran over and engulfed me and Grayson into a group hug.

"Woah bro, watch it. You're going to crush my daughter." Grayson said, pushing Ethan back slightly.

"Son." I corrected.

"Dude, you really think I'd do anything to hurt my nephew?" He asked, already taking my side. I laughed and gave him a high five.

"Oh, I need to take a picture of the onsies for the scrapbook."

"Ethan, where'd yours go?" I asked, looking around on the counter

"Ethan, where'd yours go?" I asked, looking around on the counter.

"Oh umm, the cup of coffee may or may not have spilled on it when I dumped all the stuff onto the table."

"Jesus Christ." I said, pinching the bridge of my nose. "Grayson can you turn that camera off so it doesn't catch me strangling him?"

"What camera" he asked while Ethan asked "strangle?"

"That camera right there." I said pointing to the camera that was kind of hidden on the counter.

"You got me on camera tearing up?" He asked, grabbing it and turning it off.

"Mmm yeah." I laughed.

"I still can't believe I'm going to be a dad, this is the best day ever." He said, tearing up again.

"Stop Grayson, you're going to make me cry." I said throwing the teddy bear from his bag at him.

Alright it's 3am and I'm getting ready to clock in for work but here ya go
