A/N: Hey everybody, This is my younger sister's first attempt at fanfiction. I'm super proud of her and we hope you guys like it. R&R. :)

Nate Archibald watched his just barely 9-month pregnant wife, Serena, walk in and lower herself onto their brand new designer couch. As soon as she sat down she mouthed, "Who are you talking to?"

Nate mouthed back, "Grandfather", then said into the phone "Yes, Grandfather I'll consider it but I don't want to leave . . . Yes I know Serena says she can take care of herself but I still worry . . . yes Grandfather I know if I worry too much I'll go prematurely gray." At that point Nate heard Serena giggle and scowled at her. He then finished his conversation with his grandfather, "Grandfather I promise I'll discuss it with Serena and consider coming . . . I know it's important Grandfather . . . okay Grandfather . . . goodbye Grandfather."

Nate plopped down on their couch with a huff and an eye roll. "What was that about?" Serena asked.

"Grandfather needs me for some business thing. I'm going to tell him no of course." Nate replied.

"Why? Your Grandfather said it was important."

"Serena, you're about to have the baby I'm not leaving you." Nate said, incredulous.

"First of all Nate, I'm not due 3 weeks, 3 WEEKS," Serena exclaimed holding up three of her fingers for emphasis, "And as if being this uncomfortable for that long isn't bad enough you are not going to be staring at me like I'm some kind time bomb. You are going!"

"Serena I'm not leaving you alone" Nate complained, then rushed to say before she could interrupt him, "Even if you aren't due for 3 more weeks."

"Of course I won't be alone" Serena stated like it was obvious "I'll stay with Blair and Chuck. Blair's been begging me to sleep over forever! It's perfect."

"I don't know Serena-"

"It'll be fine. How long will you be away?" Serena questioned.

"5 days" Her husband answered.

"Then it's settled you're going and that's final so go and call your grandfather and tell him you'll be there." With that Serena hefted herself off the couch and walked out of the room to call Blair and tell her the news.

"How did that happen? I didn't even want to go." Nate said to himself and went to go call his grandfather before Serena got annoyed. An angry Serena . . . not pretty. He shuddered at the thought of an angry pregnant Serena.
