A/N- I'm baaaack. Happy late New Years to everyone. Do you have any good resolutions? Mine is to read one Maximum Ride book each month so I'm ready for Nevermore. Anyway, this story takes place 3 years after A Very Eggy Wedding, so all in all it is 13 years in the future of the current Maximum Ride timeline. To give some time reference that means Angel is 20. I'm still updating on Mondays and Thursdays and as of typing this note I am still writing the story, so I'm open to ideas about what should happen. I think that's all I want to say so enjoy.
What are We Going to Name It? Chapter 1
Iggy POV
Boy, am I nervous. I'm sitting on the edge of our bed with Ella with my arms on her shoulders. We're waiting for the results from the pregnancy test. Yes, that's right; we're trying to have a kid. We checked with a doctor and he said it would be okay even though I'm only 98% human. And as for details about how it happened, I'm not giving any. Let's just say I have a good imagination. Ella squealed and broke me out of my monologue.
"What does it say?" I asked nervously.
"Well, let's check. One line means," Ella said in mock concentration before I interrupted.
"Don't be messing with me, we got the one with words."
"It says yes! We're going to be parents!"
I picked Ella up and kissed her all while spinning around. I'm going to be a father. This is the greatest day of my life. I put Ella down and started talking towards her belly.
"Hello, you probably can't hear me, but I'm your father. You're going to be born into a very special family."
"Speaking of our special family, who are we going to tell first?" Ella asked.
"Isn't it obvious?"
"Angel." We both said at the same time.
"How are we going to do it?" Ella asked.
"Well I have a plan; first we call Angel and tell her. Then we go and see your mother, making sure they don't tell anyone else. Finally, we invite everyone to dinner at our house and tell them."
"How come you always have the good plans?"
"Must be from lack of making bomb blueprints, I guess."
Ella wrapped her arms tightly around me and looked up. "You know having a kid is a huge responsibility right?"
"Of course, all we can do is try our best to teach our child to our best ability, then it's up to them."
"I love you so much right now Iggy."
I started rubbing her back. "I love you more than anything, now and forever." And we just stood there like that for a while rocking back and forth. The phone ringing broke us from our trance.
"It's Angel." Ella said picking up the phone.
Ella POV
Before I describe what happened with Angel I want to say how I feel. Oh my goodness, I'm having a kid with Iggy! Sorry, I'm just really excited. When he suggested that we try I was ecstatic. I always though he wouldn't want to have kids since he's well, different. Everyone's going to be so excited. And now Max and Fang's son Cole will have someone his age to play with. Now back to Angel.
"Hi Angel, how's Alaska?" She had moved there because, and I quote, "There are less minds to read there, I can finally sleep some."
"Cold, but the people here are really nice. They don't even care if I read their minds every once in a while."
"Well, that's nice of them. You know you have really great timing. Iggy and I were just about to call you."
"Really? That's cool. What do you want to talk about?"
"Well, you know how you're always saying Cole is probably lonely with no one his age that is like him to play with?"
"Yeah."
"In about nine months that's not going to be a problem anymore."
"No, really? You're pregnant?" she asked in disbelief.
"Yep, just found out today actually. It's great isn't it?"
"Great? That's wonderful news. I have to tell everyone."
"No, Angel wait. Iggy has a plan to tell everyone at the same time."
"Okay, what's my part in this plan?"
"You need to come down here in about three days. We're inviting everyone to dinner to tell them."
"Can do. See you then."
"Bye, Angel."
I hung up the phone and turned around in just enough time to see Iggy hug me again.
"Well, Angel is on board." I said
"So is your mother. I asked if we could come over tomorrow and she said that it would be okay. I didn't tell her, but I said that we had something important to tell her. She also told me to say she loves you."
"Being a part of your plans is always so exciting."
"It would all be for naught without a partner in crime."
"Naught?"
"I've been listening to Fang's books again. Never would have thought he had such a good vocabulary. Anyway it's getting late, don't want the mother of our child to get more grumpy than she will be."
I playfully punched his arm. "I am not going to get grumpy."
"And punching me is a sign of that how?" He said raising an eyebrow.
"Just get into bed." I said pulling him down by his shirt. He landed on top of me and started kissing me. And that's all I'm telling you about.
"I love you Ella, so much. I'm so glad I met you all those years ago." He said when we were done.
"And I'm glad I met you. I don't think I would have survived without you."
"You probably would have, but your life would have been really dull." He said with a smirk. He kissed my forehead with perfect precision. "Goodnight Ella."
"Goodnight Iggy, I love you."
"I love you more."
A/N- 217 days until Nevermore.
P.S. Cole is my OC, but if you think I ripped off the name/likeness of one of your OC's it is completely unintentional.
