Third Person POV {May change later on}
Epilogue
Three years later
Keller had had her baby girl a little over two years ago and curly-haired Ithyca already had her daddy and everyone else wrapped around her itty bitty finger.
Hannah had had her twins, Sarah and Andrew, a few weeks before. Petite Sarah was her little brother's, by three minutes, protector. Even though she was still less than three years old she already had a feisty attitude. Andrew was sweeter than honey, with his white blonde locks and his big baby blues; he was mommy and daddy's angel.
Six months after Raven caught Jez's bouquet, Val asked her out. Three months later he had proposed and their two year anniversary was a few months away.
Jez and Morgead were still enthralled with each other; now more than ever.
They had spent no more than a day apart in the last three years and they were enjoying it immensely.
At the moment it was a Monday morning and Morgead had just left for work leaving a sleepy Jez snuggled in their warm bed.
Jez was going to pick up Hannah, Sarah, Andrew, and Raven to go to the mall. They had asked Keller but she'd had to decline to take Ithyca to the doctor's.
The alarm clock started to buzz again, warning Jez that she needed to get up.
But Jez had already jumped out of bed fifteen minutes earlier, running straight to the bathroom, and promptly vomiting up last night's dinner.
Two hours later Jez came out looking pale and sick.
She brushed her teeth and combed any knots out of her hair.
She was walking down the hall and into the kitchen when the phone rang; she answered.
"Hello?" She said, running her tongue over her teeth and frowning; deciding she needed to brush them again.
"Hey!" It was Hannah.
"Hey. What's up? I was about to get dressed."
"I'm not going to be able to go. Can you pick up Sarah? Andrew came down with a fever and I need to take him to the doctor's office."
"Sure. Sarah is never any trouble. I'll come over a little early to get her."
"All right. Thanks." She hung up.
Jez ran to get changed.
***
Jez pulled into Hannah's gated driveway and parked.
She went up to the front door and knocked.
Hannah opened the door; a crying Andrew in one arm and a wobbling Sarah holding onto the other hand.
"Hey guys!" Jez said, bending down to pick up Sarah.
"Hi Aunt Jez!" Sarah said happily. The twins' speech was amazing. They pronounced their words like they'd been doing it for years.
"You ready to go see Raven, Sarah?"
Sarah shook her head angrily.
"No! Andrew doesn't feel good."
"But your Mommy has to take him to see the doctor. She can keep him safe, right?"
"Uh-huh." She nodded solemnly.
"Then you can come with me, we'll go pick up Raven, then get some ice cream, okay?"
"Okay." She said, if a bit reluctantly.
***
They picked up Raven and Jez made good on her promise; stopping by the MarbleSlab next to the mall.
Sarah sat down with her one scoop of Birthday Cake and dug in.
After three spoonfuls her eyes went as round as saucers.
"Cold! Cold!" She waved a hand in front of her mouth; pantomiming 'cold.'
Jez and Raven laughed. "Put your thumb on the roof of your mouth."
Sarah stuck her thumb on the roof of her mouth like Raven said and sighed.
"Better?" Jez asked, patting her head.
She nodded and went back to her ice cream.
"Why didn't you get any, Jez?" Raven asked.
"I'm just not in the mood for it. To tell you the truth; I think I ate something yesterday that didn't agree with me. I woke up this morning and had to run to the bathroom. I haven't thrown up since then but I still don't feel well."
Raven smiled knowingly.
"What?" Jez asked, annoyed.
"You and Morgy have been doing the Hanky Panky and it sounds like you might be a Fertile Myrtle." Raven laughed.
"Raven! There is a toddler sitting right beside us!" She gestured to Sarah, who was happily shoveling in her ice cream and not paying a bit of attention to either of them.
"Look at her, Jez. She isn't paying any attention to us." Jez looked at Sarah then shook her head.
"It doesn't matter."
Raven scooted closer to Jez. "Do you think you are?"
"I-I don't know. I haven't thought about it. I-I mean, I was late a while back but I don't think nothing of it 'cause I was really stressed at the time."
"We'll get you one. Don't worry. It'll all be fine."
***
They walked around the mall for a few hours until Sarah started to yawn, then Jez picked her up and they headed to the car.
She buckled Sarah up in the car seat and got in the driver's side.
Then they headed to the nearest pharmacy.
***
Jez had dropped off Raven and Sarah at their respective homes and sped back to her house; anxious to get the test over with.
A few minutes later she was pacing the bathroom; unable to stay still.
She heard the timer go off in the kitchen and looked down at the little plastic stick that held the answer to a question that would change her and Morgead's lives forever.
She picked up the stick and shook it, as instructed.
She looked down at it slowly.
It took a moment for her to comprehend what she was seeing and when she did she slid down the nearest wall with a sigh.
A pink positive symbol. Pink, means, yes. She thought slowly.
I'm pregnant.
***
Jez put the test back in the box and roamed the house; her legs restless.
She walked around for over an hour; that's when Morgead pulled up.
She took a deep breath and hid the, now crushed, box behind her back.
Morgead walked in.
"Hey." She said shakily.
He looked up at her sharply; instantly tuned to her strained emotions.
"What's wrong?"
"N-nothing."
"Jezebel." He growled.
"Here," She shoved the box into his hand.
He stared down at it, confused.
"How do you feel about little Jez and Morgead's running around?" She closed her eyes, waiting for his reaction.
She opened her eyes when she heard him gasp.
He was staring at the test.
Suddenly, he looked up into her eyes-
And smiled.
He lifted her shirt and bent down to kiss her bare stomach.
"Hello little Jez or Morgead. Can't wait for you to get here. "
AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's it! The end! Bada-bing bada-boom! Okay, so, maybe to you it wasn't a 'special story' but it was different.
And I liked it, so hah!
Thanks to all those who've reviewed and read (Not limited to that order) ya'll are truly awesome (Or, incredibly bored…)
I loved writing this for ya'll.
Oh, and the 'Fertile Myrtle' line, I heard it off of Juno.
I have no clue what I'll be writing next (If I will at all) and I'm still open for suggestions.
And that's it. Hmm, I thought the ending speech would've been longer…
Love you, love you, love you!
