Rachel is spending a week with Phoebe and Cole for Christmas.
"Hey Rachel can Daddy and I talk with you?" Phoebe asked sitting on the couch.
"Sure," She said turning off the tv.
Cole place the nachos on the coffee table, and sat next to Rachel.
"Okay, we're gonna have a baby." Cole stated.
"Oh so that is why Phoebe has been needing to throw up, for these past couple months." Rachel asked.
"Yeah, are upset?" Phoebe questioned, because has live ten years being an only child in both houses.
"No this is great. I have always wanted a little brother or sister, and with what mom said about Phoebe. this is even better." Rachel smiled, Cole a hug.
"Wait what did your mom say?" Phoebe asked.
"She hired a man to badly rape you enough to loose a baby that you had, and not to be able to have children again." Rachel informed knowing that she might have said too much.
"When did she tell you this?"Cole asked.
"A couple months ago."
"Why didn't you ask us?" Phoebe questioned.
"Well I tried, but Daddy changed the subject on me. I'm sorry."
"It is okay." Phoebe said looking at Cole.
"Rachel does Mommy ever hit you?" Cole asked while they were on the topic of violent Kiha.
"Sometimes, when I'm bad, or when I don't finish my chores.""Is that where you're getting all these bruises from?" Phoebe asked pointing at one.
"No I get them from gym class I bruise easily."
"Honey, you don't have to lie, we're trying to help you." Cole told his daughter.
"My mom doesn't bruise me. Just because Phoebe hates her, doesn't mean she doesn't love me." Rachel yelled walking into her room.
"Do you want to deal with it or shall I?" Phoebe asked.
"You can."
"Rachel."
"Phoebe, I'm didn't mean to yell, but my mom loves me and she needs me,"
"But you don't need that," Phoebe replied. "When she hits you do enjoy it?"
"No, but she has stressful days at work. I guess that is what I am here for right?"
"Oh no," Phoebe said sitting down on the bed next to Rachel, "You've seen that Daddy and I had stressful days at work, and when we get called on the weekends to deal with our clients."
"Yeah,"
"Well we don't hit you because we are upset. or each other for that matter. Or when your bad we don't hit you, we put you in time out, and you don't like that either." Phoebe smiled.
"No, but I rather be in time out than be hit."
"When has started doing this?"
"For about a year now I think. But She will be coming back to normal, and it will be the same as before."
"What if it doesn't?" Phoebe asked
"It will. I know it will." Rachel said sounding so sure.
"What if Daddy and I keep you here and you visit Mommy. Like you do with us?"
"No,"
"Why not?"
"Because if I live with you guys who will take care of her? She needs me to make sure everything is clean, and if she doesn't fall alseep on the couch from drinking too much. Grammy doesn't even call her anymore."
"But that is not your job. That is the parents job, your job is to go to school, and make a better life than your parents." Phoebe said making a joke.
"It is okay. I can handle it." Rachel replied.
"Well dinner is going to be ready soon after Daddy is done, hopefully it is good. but start packing for going over your Grandparents tomorrow for Christmas." Phoebe said walking to the door.
"Phoebe." Rachel said.
"Yeah," She asked turning around to look at Rachel.
"Thank you,"
Phoebe nodded and smiled.
Phoebe woke up with Cole watching her sleep. She smiled and caressed his cheek.
"Morning," She said.
"Morning, Mommy," He smiled and moved his hand down to Phoebe's developing stomach.
"You ready for today?" Phoebe asked knowing that they are going over to his parents for Christmas to tell them the news.
"I guess." He said, moving in for a kiss.
Phoebe covered her mouth, and ran to the bathroom. Cole followed her. He helped her with her hair, and handed her a wet towel.
"Thanks," She said flushing the toliet and cleaning off her face.
"You know I think this whole morning sickness thing is just an excuse for you not to kiss me."
"Yeah, that was my whole plan. I want Cole to get me pregnant, I won't have to kiss him for a whole nine months." She informed while turning on the shower. "and you busted me."
"Yep, that is why I am a lawyer." He replied.
"But knowing the man in you... you will ignore the puke breath and kiss me anyway."
"Yep I am your guy..." He said yanking her to him, and kissed her.
Phoebe took off her clothes and was backing up into the shower.
"Go wake up, Rachel." Phoebe said breaking the kiss.
"No that is okay I need to get a scrub down." Cole stated.
"We are going to be late."
"No cause if you see if we all three take a different shower, that would be like 45minutes but if we share this shower it would be like 30minutes."
"Fine, but no hanky panky." Phoebe said being firm and rolling her eyes.
Cole walked into Rachel's room to wake her up. He turned on the lights, and jumped into the bed.
"Come Rachel. It's time to get up, and go to grandma's house."
"Dad, you are all wet." Rachel stated waking up.
"Yep, now you need to get up and take a shower or a bath what ever is it that you do to clean yourself." Cole said with both of them sitting up.
"I take showers in the morning and bathes at night." Rachel informed.
"You know if Phoebe ever takes bathes it is at night time too, are you all packed?"
"Yes, My bag is over there." She said pointing at them.
"Okay I'll bring them down stairs, while you get ready."
"Okay."
Phoebe, Cole, and Rachel walked in Cole's parents house, with the maid greeting them.
"Hey Cole," John was the first one to greet them. "Merry Christmas."
"Same to you." Cole said.
"Rachel, are you looking to open presents this year? I your grandparents got you some good stuff." He asked looking Rachel.
"I don't have much interest in presents." Rachel replied walking with Cole to the rest of the people.
"Phoebe, you look good," He smiled and gave her a hug. "And Pregnant?"
"Yep, Four and half months." Phoebe smiled.
"Well Congratulations."
"Thank you. We better head in there."
"Yea we are finishing decorating the tree."
"Ooo Fun."
"Much."
Phoebe sat down next to Cole, and watched Rachel decorate the with the other children.
"Oh Phoebe stand up." Elizabeth commanded.
"Stand up?" She questioned.
"Yes I want to see your belly."
"It isn't much." Phoebe stated feeling awkward, that Cole's mother told her to show her stomach.
"Yeah, Mom she just started showing a couple weeks ago." Cole stated.
"Oh that is okay, we want to see the stomach,"
"Okay," Phoebe said, standing up and placing her hands above and below the stomach.
"Awww." They said, and Phoebe quickly sat back down.
Kevin walked into the livingroom, "Oh you three are finally here."
"Yeah, the traffic was bad, sorry Kevin." Cole explained.
"So great news honey, Phoebe's pregnant." Elizabeth explained.
Kevin nodded his head.
"You just can't be happy about anything for me, can you?" Cole snapped at Kevin knowing that nod was a whatever and walked out of the room.
Phoebe followed him.
"Cole, wait." Phoebe stopping him outside.
"Look Phoebe I'm sorry I tried to be nice this time, but isn't even happy for me; When you are pregnant, and he wasn't happy when
we told him about you getting raped."
Phoebe sat down on the steps. "It is okay, but we need to try and have a pleasant weekend,"
"I know but I wish my dad was here, he would be happy for me about everything." Cole said sitting next to Phoebe.
"So why don't we go to his grave tomorrow," Phoebe suggested.
"No, I can't I don't want to be one of the those people who talk to grave thinking that the dead is listening to me." Cole laughed.
"I bet you it will make you feel so much better, and we don't have to bring Rachel, we can ask John to watch her,"
"Fine, if it will get you off my back,"
"Mr. Turner dinner is served."
"Oh yes food." Cole said.
"So are you two going find out if the baby is a boy or girl." John's wife Kate asked.
"Yes,"Cole stated.
"No" Phoebe said at the same time as Cole.
"Looks like you have a problem," Elizabeth laughed.
"I want it to be a surprise." She commanded.
"Well I want to know what to name it." He informed, "and how to decorate the room."
"Well I have the best boy named picked out, so if it is a girl, you can choose the name." Phoebe stated.
"Deal."
"Phoebe you aren't eating that much." Kate noticed.
"Yeah, it is really hard for me to eat. cause everytime I eat I have to throw up,"
"Well I heard that women these days are needing to gain around thirty pounds." Elizabeth informed.
"I'm trying to eat, but it is a good thing that everything that I eat goes to the baby first." Phoebe stated.
"Alright it is time for all the children to go to bed we have a big day tomorrow with opening presents." Elizabeth said looking at her watch.
"Do I have to?" Rachel asked Phoebe and Cole.
"Mind your Grandmother," Cole said.
"Come on Rachel I'll tuck you in." Phoebe stated.
Phoebe and Rachel walked upstairs.
"John, I have a favor for you." Cole stated.
"What?"
" I need you to represent me in a court hearing that I have."
"What kind of hearing? What did you do?" Kevin asked.
"I didn't do anything Kiha has been abusing Rachel, and we are redoing the custody hearing so I can have sol custody of her." He explained.
"Okay I will do it. That kid is awesome, I don't want to see her get hurt."
Walking into the graveyard covered in snow. Phoebe and Cole wearing heavy coats, hats, and gloves. Phoebe was following him.
"Here it is." He said.
"Say something." Phoebe told Cole and rolled her eyes." Okay I will, I Mr. Turner, I am Phoebe and I am your son's wife, who is a great man. and I will give birth to his second child in so where in April."
Phoebe stepped and brought Cole to stand infront of his grave. Phoebe gave Cole his space to do this.
"Hey Dad, that was my wife, I wish you could see her, she is goregous and has that mother's glow with her right now. You would be happy for me, unlike Kevin. I miss you soooo much, and I am still mad at you. Why didn't you stay that day, I wanted you to read that story, but you had to go and fight crime, I was 7, and that guy shot you. You never thought what would have happen to me if something happened to you. I had to deal with that jerk Kevin who uses money for love, not once did I ever hear him say I love you to mom. Just come back and be the Grandfather that my children need. I hate you... But I love you, You were my hero and I wanted to be just like you, because you were my dad." Cole said walking away from the grave with tears coming down his face, and looked at Phoebe.
Phoebe followed Cole to the car.
