"Oh my god Nicky, I love you." Jackie told him as she took a bite of her orange chicken. He chuckled.
"Do you love me because I'm a loving husband and father or do you love me because I brought home Chinese food for dinner?" He asked.
"Both, but at the moment more so option two." She replied.
He laughed.
"You need to get your priorities straight." He joked.
She laughed at him.
"Their egg rolls are really good." She told him.
Luckily for Jackie, Nick was good at reading people and he noticed the way she kept eyeing his not yet touched egg roll, and also luckily for her he was very generous.
"Want mine?" He asked.
"Would you mind?" She asked.
"No." He said as he slid his plate over to her with a smile.
"Thank you." She told him gratefully before taking a bite.
"Does Nora like it too?" He asked as he gave her expanding belly a pat.
"You're going to keep saying that and it's going to be a boy." She told him with a smile.
"Nope." He said stubbornly with a grin.
He was convinced that it was a girl and until they went in to find out at their twenty week scan he was so not changing his mind.
"But to answer your question, Nora, or not Nora, likes it as well." She replied.
"What is Nora's middle name going to be?" He asked her.
"I don't really have any ideas, we can't use Leanne because we used Leander for Ryan's middle name. Do you have any ideas?"
"Yeah, a couple." He replied.
When he didn't say anything else she asked "Care to share?"
"Not at the moment."
She looked at him like he was completely insane and he just offered her a devilish smirk back.
"What are we going to name him if he's a boy? We don't even have a first name picked out."
"We aren't going to have to worry about that." He told her.
She rolled her eyes at him and got back to eating her egg roll. They would find out soon enough whether they did in fact have to worry about finding a boy's name, and Jackie couldn't wait!
The End!
