The last thing you remembered was falling asleep on the couch after Luke had gone into the studio for a last minute meeting. Since the band had started making their next album, they spent majority of days in the studio. You laid in bed, thinking if it was really a good idea to get back together with Luke and start a family. Your eyes started to water as the thought of having an abortion, you didn't know what to do since Luke wanted to have children and you did as well but it all seemed like it happened so fast. Luke must've came home late and went early to the studio since he wasn't in bed with you. The nausea was just for a week and luckily it had subsided. Last week you graduated with the rest of your graduating classmates. You were gonna go to the after party, but you were called into the studio unexpectedly which you were thankful for on many reasons. One being that your friends would try to sneak you a drink. You turned into your back and exhaled. Wether or not you liked it, you had to get out of bed.
"Hey Petunia. Mommy's finally getting out of bed." You giggled, walking into the bathroom to brush your teeth.
You rubbed your stomach, like you do every morning and noticed that something was different. You lifted your shirt and saw that you had a very prominent baby bump poking out.

     You quickly took a picture, then just looked at it

"Maybe having a baby with Luke isn't all that bad." You said to yourself, getting ready for the day.
You were eating a sandwich in the kitchen when Luke stumbled through the front door. Almost like he was in a rush to be somewhere.
"Oh you're awake already." He exhaled and walked over to you.
"Yeah why wouldn't I be. It a quarter past noon." You shrugged, taking a bite from the sandwich.
"Well you've been waking up way past noon all week."
"That doesn't explain why you were in such a rush coming through the front door." You giggled.
"I wanted to wake you up." Luke kissed your cheek and put his hand on your stomach. "What the heck?!"
      You giggled as Luke lifted up your shirt.
     "They showed up overnight. I found them like this when I got up." You smiled.
     Luke then picked you up by your hips and squished his face into your stomach kissing it lightly. He placed you on the counter, grabbing your face to then kiss your lips softly. You both looked down at your bubbled stomach. Luke rubbed his face and pulled at his hair.
     "Well this means that if I want to continue picking you up, I gotta go into the gym more often." He wiped his hands on his pants.
     "Just don't drop me." You placed your hands underneath your bump.
     He started to cry. "I think it's finally setting in that I'm gonna be a dad and your gonna be a mom." Luke sighed. "I love it so much."
     "Same here Luke. It's all starting to seem real." You sniffled.
     "Don't cry Y/N. Was it something I did?" Luke walked in between your dangling legs.
     "No it's just the mood swings that come along with pregnancy. I'm ok." You laughed, wiping away your tears.
     "Well good. I don't ever want to make you cry because of something I said."
      Luke kissed you on the lips slowly, you leaned into the kiss. Luke lightly rested his hand on the bump, leaving you to fall asleep on his shoulder. He picked you up and carried you to bed. Once he laid you down he laid down right beside you. He exhaled, placing his hand back onto your bump.
     "Daddy loves you two so much already." He kissed your stomach and brushed his thumb over it. "You have no idea how much your mommy and I are gonna miss the two of you when we go on tour."
      Luke sighed and fell asleep with you.
(Luke's POV)
    I woke up half an hour later with my hand still on her bump. I kissed her stomach one last time before going downstairs. I wrote a little note explaining that I was going to take Petunia out for a walk. I connected the leash to her collar and walked out the door. I took a big deep breath of the fresh air as Petunia picked up a stick and started to play with it.
"You're a silly girl Petunia." I laughed a bit as she finally got it into her mouth comfortably.
She smiled and waddled along the pathway, dragging the stick. It was a quiet but cold afternoon, so it seemed like I was the only one out until I came across a couple with two young children.
"Mommy look a puppy!" The young girl giggled, pulling the mother towards Petunia and I.
"Remember Charlotte, you have to ask permission to pet the dog first." She smiled nervously as Petunia started to wag her tail.
"Hi mr. Can I pet your doggy?"
"Yes you can. Petunia here loves little kids." I smiled as the little girl went to pet Petunia on the head.
The other young child was hiding behind the fathers leg. I looked down at the other young girl and smiled.
"Do you want to pet the doggy too Elizabeth?" The father asked, the little girl nodded and shuffled over to Petunia with her dad holding her hand.
Petunia leaned closer and sniffed at young girl who's name was Elizabeth. The little girl hid behind her fathers legs again. I crouched down and made sure that Petunia didn't move. I looked the young girl in the eyes and smiled. She slowly shuffled again towards Petunia.
"She doesn't bite." I said softly, having Petunia turn her head away from the young girl to ease the nerves.
Elizabeth put her snap hand on Petunias back and smiled. Soon both girls were all over her.
"Alright you two, time to go home." The mother said.
"Thank you so much. What's your name?" The father asked.
"I'm Luke."
"Thanks Luke. Elizabeth is selectively mute so it's hard for her to interact with dogs on the sidewalk."
"No problem. I'm Jay, this is my wife Rebecca. Then our twins Charlotte and Elizabeth. They just turned four. Then we're expecting another around the new year.
"My girlfriend and I are actually expecting twins ourselves." I smiled.
"Good luck then Luke. Two children at once is difficult, but it's not impossible."
"Thanks. Good luck to you as well Jay."
I waved goodbye to the family and finished the walk with Petunia. When I got home, Y/N was on the couch watching something on the tv with a blanket and a sweater.
"Hey. How's mommy and babies doing?" I walked into the living room.
"Hey Lu. I'm doing good. The twins in the other hand want something that we don't have." She giggled petting Petunia on the head.
"What is it they want? I'll go out and get it for you."
"Pickles and Swiss cheese. It has to be Swiss. If there's no Swiss, then just get the other kind. The orange and I'll figure something out."
"Alright, I'll go get those. Do we need anything else for meals?"
"I'm not sure." She stood up.
We both walked into the kitchen and started looking in the fridge and cupboards. The two of us made a shopping list.
"Alright. So we have everything that we need in a list. Do you want me to go alone or do you want to come along?"
"I want to come along. I'm thinking of not going out when I get more obviously pregnant. I don't want to disappoint my mom anymore, plus last time I checked, she doesn't know that I'm pregnant with twins." She rubbed her face and pulled at her hair, then she started to cry a little.
"Hey it's ok. I'm here for you. My family is here for you. I know that you don't have a great relationship with your mom but my mom can become your new mom. You know how Liz is towards you staying over. My mom loves you to pieces." I kissed the top of her head. "And I swear she's gonna love her two little grandchildren just as much." I put my hand on her bump.
"You know Liz Luke. She's gonna love them too much." Y/N giggled and wiped away her tears.
"Go put some outside pants on. We should probably go shopping for maternity clothing soon anyway now that you have a bump."
"Luke baby... I'm in sweatpants. These are the only pants that fit me." She giggled. "I can't change into anything else."
"Ok then. Let's get going then." I grabbed my coat and Y/N grabbed hers.
We were at the store getting the needed food items when Y/N suddenly got closer to me and out her hood up.
"Hun there's no paparazzi in here-"
She nudged me and pointed behind us to the maternity section. It was Y/N's mom holding hands with a man looking at maternity clothes. I put my arm around her shoulders and kissed her temples. She put her hands in her pockets and hunched over trying to make herself appear smaller.
"It's ok hun. We can start heading to the cashier now."
"We need pickles and cheese first. Or did you already forget about it?" She said quietly.
"I just thought that you wanted to leave since your moms here."
"Just cause my moms here Luke doesn't mean that I can ignore my cravings."
"Let's go get those two things then we can leave."
"Okie dokie." She smiled, removing her hood and grabbing my hand.
We ventured off to where the dairy was to get the cheese. Y/N quickly grabbed a couple of packs of Swiss cheese then grabbed a block of marble. Then we went over to the pickles and she picked out one of the bigger jars. I had to help her since it was heavy and I didn't want her to hurt herself or the twins. We went to the checkout to buy our groceries. Out of nowhere Y/N's mom and the guy that she was with came in behind us. Instead of her hiding her face, she moved her hood out of the way and started to make it obvious that it was her.
"That'll be 85.50 dollars." The cashier said.
"I'll pay Luke, you focus on getting the groceries in the bag." Y/N offered, only for her mom to look our way and immediately tear up.
We left the store and went home. Y/N was quiet the whole ride home. While I put the food away, she went upstairs.

(Y/N's POV)
I let myself fall on the bed. I curled up and cried. I've only been out of the house for about two months. When did my mom get pregnant again? And who was the man next to her?! I shakily exhaled. My phone screen lit up and I checked it. I opens my text messages to my moms contact.
Mom: Hey sweetie, I'm really sorry that I got mad at you when you told me that you were pregnant. I was pregnant myself and didn't know just yet. I found out the day after you left. I hope you can forgive me.
You: I don't know mom.
Mom: Please can you come over?
You: Fine. I'll come over on Friday. But you need to tell me who you were holding hands with.
Mom: Alright. It's about time you met him.
