Rick rubbed his eye as he walked out of his and Kate's bedroom, glancing into Johanna's empty nursery before going downstairs, pausing on the steps when he heard voices in the kitchen.

"Stop crying, Jo. Mommy's here. Mommy's right here."

"If he hears her…"

"He won't. It takes a train to wake him up and he's all the way upstairs. Don't worry. Did you put the coffee on?"

"Yeah. And the bacon's crisping."

Rick smiled, hoping off the last steps before going into the kitchen, where Alexis was making breakfast and Kate was holding a screaming Johanna in her arms, trying to get the ten-week-old baby to calm down.

"Nice to see my girls remembered my birthday," he said with a grin as he walked into the room. He kissed Kate on the forehead and took Johanna, rocking her in his large arms until she settled down.

"We were gonna make you breakfast in bed," Alexis said with a shrug. "It's almost finished."

"All of you? Even you, Poopy?" he asked, looking down at the baby he held.

"I can't believe you call our daughter Poopy."

He shrugged. "I called Alexis Pukey until she was three."

Alexis turned to look at him. "You did?"

"Hey, if the name fits…"

"Alright, Papa Smurf, before you decide to scar and ostracize both of your daughters for life, I have a present for you," Kate told him. "Just wait here." She patted his arm then walked up the stairs.

Rick turned to look at Alexis. "Papa Smurf?"

She shrugged. "You wear a lot of blue…"

Kate returned holding a thin box, Rick handed Johanna to Alexis and raised his eyebrows at his wife. "You bought me a bracelet?"

She rolled her eyes. "I was gonna give it to you after you ate your breakfast but you kind of ruined that part so… here," she said, pulling him away from the girls before handing the box to him.

"Does whatever's in this box vibrate? Because if it does we might have to start calling Alexis Pukey again."

"Does it look big enough to hold something like that? Just open it."

He tore the wrapping paper off then pulled the lid off the box. "You saved the test from when we found out about Jo all this time?" he asked, looking at the positive pregnancy test.

She shook her head. "No, this is new. Apparently women who just gave birth are extremely fertile. So I guess you can thank the one time Johanna slept through the night."

He glanced at his daughters, smiling when he saw Alexis beaming at him. "Wow. We're… we're gonna be parents. Again. Already."

"Yeah. Say something else. Preferably a full sentence."

He shook his head, smiling. "This… this is crazy. But amazing. We're gonna have another baby. Maybe even a boy? I'm already overrun with women as it is."

"I don't know that there's much I can do but I'll try to get this one to come out with a penis."

"I'd appreciate it. But if it doesn't, you did promise that someday I'd get Rick Junior."

"Yeah, someday." She put a hand on his chest to keep him from hugging her too close when he put his arms around her. "But after this one's born, you're not touching me for at least a year."

He smirked. "You know that means you can't touch me for a year?"

"Right. Somehow I think I'll survive."

The End

AN: short epilogue/last chapter, possibly to lead up to a sequel. But like I said a couple chapters ago, I'm taking a break so if I do write it it might be a while. Bye for now. Thanks for reading! :)
