A week later, Troy was working at his office with a huge case load. He ran his fingers through his hair and sighed. There was a knock on the door and Troy looked up.

"Come in" Troy said.

A nurse opened the door and smiled.

"Dr. Bolton, I think I found a little lady that is trying to find her daddy" the nurse said holding Sophia.

Troy smiled. He got up and walked over to the nurse and opened his arms.

"Hi baby. How are you feeling?" Troy asked as the nurse placed Sophia into his arms.

"My tummy hurts" Sophia said.

Troy kissed his daughter's warm head. Sophia had the stomach flu and had been bed ridden for the last couple of days.

"Where's Gabriella?" Troy asked.

"I'm here. Soph was just eager to see her daddy" Gabriella said poking her head in.

Troy smiled. The nurse left the office. Gabriella walked in and closed the door.

"Did her temperature go down since this morning?" Troy asked.

"A little bit. But, she's still regurgitating everything she ingests" Gabriella said.

Troy sighed and looked at Sophia, who had her head leaning against her father's chest.

"Josh still doesn't show any signs?" Troy confirmed.

"Yeah" Gabriella said.

"That's good at least" Troy said.

Gabriella nodded.

"Daddy, I'm tired" Sophia said.

"I know you are baby. But it's not nap time yet. You have to stay awake a little longer" Troy said rubbing her back soothingly.

"How long does this usually last in toddlers?" Gabriella asked.

"It could last a couple days or a week at most" Troy said.

Gabriella nodded.

"Where's Josh?" Troy asked.

"With my mom" Gabriella said.

Troy nodded.

"Daddy, I want to go home" Sophia said.

"I know you do, Soph. But, I have to make sure you aren't getting more sick okay?" Troy said.

"Okay" Sophia said.

Troy got up and walked out of the office with Gabriella following close behind. They all went into an exam room. Gabriella shut the door behind them. Troy placed Sophia on the exam table.

"Sweetheart, is it just your tummy that hurts?" Troy asked his daughter.

"My mouth" Sophia said.

"Okay. I am just going to feel your tummy okay?" Troy said.

"Okay" Sophia said.

Troy lifted his daughter's shirt and felt around her stomach. He then put her shirt back in its original place.

"She's not constipated. So that's a good thing" Troy said.

Gabriella nodded.

"Potty training isn't the answer to that" Gabriella said.

Troy smiled and nodded. He opened a drawer and pulled out a tongue depressor.

"Baby, I need to check your mouth. Can you stick your tongue out?" Troy asked.

Sophia did as she was told and Troy looked into his daughter's mouth.

"She has a sore throat. It's red in there. I am pretty sure it is the stomach flu now" Troy said.

"So what do we do?" Gabriella asked.

"We need to make sure she is hydrated and eating well. She needs to sleep a little more during naps. We can give her the flu meds that are at home when she goes to bed" Troy said.

Gabriella nodded.

"Okay" Gabriella said.

"Alright. Soph, mommy is going to take you home okay?" Troy said.

Sophia nodded. Troy lifted his daughter into his arms.

"I love you baby" Troy said.

"I love you daddy" Sophia said.

Gabriella and Sophia left the office. That night, Troy came home and saw Gabriella reading a book to their children. He leaned against the door frame and listened. A couple moments later, Gabriella finished reading and looked up and saw Troy.

"Hey, look who is home" Gabriella said.

"Daddy!" Josh said jumping into Troy's arms.

"Hey bud. Soph, how are you feeling honey?" Troy asked.

"Tummy still hurts" Sophia said.

"I'm going to give you some medicine to make you feel better" Troy said.

Troy set Josh down and walked to the medicine cabinet in the hallway and opened it. He pulled out a bottle and poured the correct dosage of the medication into a little cup. Troy walked over to his daughter and handed her the cup.

"Drink this honey. It will help you feel better" Troy said.

Sophia drank the liquid and handed Troy the cup back.

"How was the office after we left?" Gabriella asked.

"Uneventful. The nurses couldn't get over how big Josh and Soph have gotten" Troy said.

Gabriella smiled. The little family relaxed around the house the rest of the day. That night, the couple had put the kids to bed and walked out of their rooms. Troy put his arm around Gabriella and they walked to their bedroom and lied down on their bed.

"Soph seems like she is getting better" Gabriella said.

Troy nodded.

"This is the first time she has really been sick" Troy said.

"Yeah" Gabriella said as she snuggled into Troy's side.

"When do you want to start trying?" Troy asked.

Gabriella looked at Troy .

"Whenever you want to" Gabriella said.

Troy leaned in and kissed Gabriella's lips passionately. Gabriella kissed him back with just as much passion. Troy pulled away and leaned his forehead against his wife's.

"I guess we can start now" Gabriella said breathlessly.

Troy smiled and nodded. Clothes were removed and intense lovemaking had commenced. The couple hoped that a new baby would be in their future. A couple weeks later, Troy came home from work and saw Gabriella with Josh, crying in the kitchen. Josh was sitting on the counter and Gabriella was opening a band-aid.

"What happened buddy?" Troy asked.

"I fell" Josh said.

"He was running in the house and he tripped and scraped his knee" Gabriella said.

"You can't run in the house Josh. You will get hurt" Troy said.

Josh nodded. Gabriella finished putting a band-aid on Josh's knee and helped him get off the counter.

"Go play Josh" Gabriella said.

Josh left the room. Gabriella looked at Troy.

"How are you doing?" Troy asked.

Gabriella smiled. The couple had been actively trying and Gabriella was exhausted.

"Okay. A little tired" Gabriella said.

"We were up late last night" Troy said.

Gabriella smiled remembering the events of the night before.

"Have you taken a test?" Troy asked.

"No. I haven't shown any signs so I don't want to take one yet" Gabriella said.

Troy nodded.

"I just want everything to be okay this time" Gabriella said.

"I know you do baby, and it will be. Last time was not anything we could have predicted" Troy said.

"I am just scared I guess" Gabriella said.

"And you have every right to be Brie. I'm scared too and this is our third baby" Troy said.

Gabriella nodded.

"We can be scared together" Gabriella said.

Troy nodded. Gabriella kissed her husband's cheek.

"Oh! I forgot to tell you. I got the job" Gabriella said.

A smile grew on Troy's face. Gabriella had finally received some news on all of the job applications that she had sent out.

"That's great sweetheart. I'm so happy for you" Troy said.

Gabriella smiled.

"I'm happy to be going back to work but also kind of sad because I won't be with the kids all day" Gabriella said.

"You got used to it" Troy said.

Gabriella nodded.

"Well, this calls for a celebration. When do you start?" Troy asked.

"Next week" Gabriella said.

"Maybe we can schedule some time to continue this baby making situation" Troy said leaning in and kissing Gabriella's lips softly.

Gabriella smiled into the kiss and pulled away slowly.

"You're crazy wildcat" Gabriella said.

Troy smiled at the nickname that he hadn't heard for so long.

"Crazy about you" Troy said.

Gabriella smiled.

"Mommy" Sophia said.

Gabriella and Troy looked and saw their daughter standing in the doorway of the kitchen.

"Yes baby?" Gabriella asked.

"What's baby making?" Sophia asked innocently.

Troy tried to hold in his laughter. Gabriella glared at Troy. Troy cleared his throat and kneeled down to Sophia's level.

"Soph, baby making is something that mommy's and daddy's do to give you a brother or a sister" Troy explained.

Gabriella's face turned bright red.

"Oh" Sophia said.

Troy smiled slightly.

"Do you understand sweetheart?" Troy asked.

"Yes" Sophia said.

"Go play" Troy said.

Sophia walked out of the room. Once she was out of earshot, Gabriella looked at Troy and glared at him.

"You have to admit that it was funny" Troy said.

"She's two Troy" Gabriella said.

"Well, would you have liked me to lie?" Troy asked.

"No, but you didn't have to say details like that" Gabriella said.

"She's not going to remember this conversation later. Don't worry" Troy said.

Gabriella sighed and shook her head. A couple weeks later, Troy opened the front door to a dark house. He turned on the light in the living room and saw a note on the table. Troy walked over to the table and picked it up.

Next year will be three times the fun...details to be announced.

Troy smiled. He walked into the bedroom and saw the light on in the bathroom. Troy knocked on the door and heard a faint "come in". He opened door and walked in slowly. Troy saw Gabriella taking a bath and smiled. He kneeled down to the tub's level.

"Did you get my note?" Gabriella asked trying to hide her smile.

Troy nodded.

"I did. Are you excited?" Troy asked.

Gabriella nodded.

"But also petrified" Gabriella said.

Troy leaned in and kissed Gabriella's lips softly.

"If you are scared about anything sweetheart, I want you to talk to me okay?" Troy said.

Gabriella nodded.

"Did you take a test or did you go see Dr. Hart?" Troy asked.

"I took a test. After I saw the results, I called Dr. Hart's office and scheduled an appointment. I also called Pat and made sure that you had that hour clear" Gabriella said.

Troy smiled.

"I'm so happy" Troy said.

Gabriella smiled.

"We are going to have a baby" Gabriella said.

Troy nodded and kissed Gabriella's forehead.

"Where are-" Troy started.

"Your mom called and asked to spend some time with the kids" Gabriella said.

"Perfect. I'll let you finish your bath" Troy said kissing Gabriella's cheek.

"I love you" Gabriella said.

"I love you too" Troy said.

Troy walked out of the bathroom and closed the door behind him. He smiled and walked away. An hour later, Gabriella came out of the bathroom and saw Troy in the kitchen. She walked into the kitchen and wrapped her arms around her husband from behind. Troy turned around and brought Gabriella's chin up and kissed her lips.

"How are we going to tell the kids?" Gabriella asked.

"Maybe we should wait until you get checked out and that it's confirmed. We don't know how far along you are and I personally want you to be out of the miscarriage point before we tell them" Troy said.

"I agree" Gabriella said.

Troy wrapped his arms around Gabriella and kissed her head softly.

"You're nervous" Troy concluded.

Gabriella smiled sheepishly.

"How can I not be? I miscarried. I don't want that to happen again. I don't think I'll be able to handle that again" Gabriella said worry washing over her face.

"Hey, look at me" Troy said softly.

Gabriella looked at Troy.

"I know you are scared. But, we don't even know for sure if anything is happening right now. Let's relax and see what Dr. Hart says and we will go from there. There's no point in worrying about something that might not happen" Troy said.

Gabriella nodded.

"Let's go see Dr. Hart and see what she says" Troy said.

"Okay" Gabriella said.

The next day, Gabriella was waiting in an exam room for Troy at Dr. Hart's office. There was a knock on the door and Troy poked his head in.

"Hey sweetheart" Troy said.

"Hey" Gabriella said kissing Troy's lips softly.

"How are you feeling?" Troy asked.

"A little nauseous, but nothing to worry about" Gabriella said.

Troy nodded. There was a knock on the door and Dr. Hart walked in, holding Gabriella's file.

"Gabriella, I didn't think you would be back so soon" Dr. Hart said.

"Yeah. We dealt with the miscarriage and we still wanted to have another baby so we tried" Gabriella explained.

Dr. Hart nodded.

"I'm assuming you came in because you had a positive test" Dr. Hart said.

"Yeah" Gabriella said.

"Let's see what's going on" Dr. Hart said.

Gabriella nodded and lied down on the table. Dr. Hart put a blanket over Gabriella's legs and got the ultrasound set up and heated.

"How are Sophia and Josh doing?" Dr. Hart asked.

"Great. They are curious toddlers" Gabriella said.

Dr. Hart looked at the monitor and saw that everything was set. She pulled Gabriella's gown up, revealing her toned stomach. Dr. Hart then picked up a bottle of gel and squeezed some of the product onto Gabriella's abdomen. Troy took Gabriella's hand in hers. Dr. Hart took a wand and moved the gel around with it and looked at the monitor.

"There's your baby" Dr. Hart said.

Gabriella smiled. Troy kissed Gabriella's head softly.

"Is it healthy? What is the chance-" Gabriella started.

"Gabi, relax. Everything looks fine" Dr. Hart said moving the wand again.

"But-" Gabriella started.

"Brie" Troy said softly giving her hand a supportive squeeze.

"You are about two months along" Dr. Hart said.

"The baby is okay?" Gabriella asked.

Dr. Hart and Troy nodded.

"Right now, everything looks perfect" Dr. Hart said.

"No risk of miscarriage?" Gabriella asked.

Dr. Hart shook her head.

"You have a month before you are out of that zone, but it looks promising. Congratulations" Dr. Hart said.

Gabriella smiled.

"I'll see you both in a month" Dr. Hart said.

Dr. Hart left the room. Troy looked at Gabriella and smiled.

"So, a celebration is order I think Miss Montez" Troy joked.

"It's Bolton to you! And yes, I think so too" Gabriella said.

Troy laughed and leaned in and kissed Gabriella's lips.

"I love you" Gabriella said.

"I love you too baby. We will celebrate when I get home. Should we tell the kids? You are farther along than you were last time" Troy said.

"I want to" Gabriella said.

Troy nodded.

"Then that is what we will do" Troy said.

Gabriella kissed Troy's lips softly.

"I got to go. I have a patient" Troy said.

Gabriella nodded. Troy leaned in and kissed Gabriella's lips one more time.

"I'll see you at home" Troy said.

"Okay" Gabriella said.

The couple went their separate ways. They were so happy to be pregnant again and were hoping that everything would go smoothly.
