She tried to speak again but nothing came out. When words failed her, she had a better idea. She took his hand and placed it on her belly. Sportacus was confused. He looked at her then where she placed his hand and back up to her again. He was about to speak. Then he quickly looked at his hand and at her. His eyes widened.

He stood up then sat back down and put his hand back on her belly. "A, a baby?" She nodded. He got up and circled, put his hand over his mouth and sat back down. "We're going to have a baby?"

"Yes." She spoke through tears of joy. Sportacus didn't know what to do. His eyes filled with water. He hugged her then pulled back fast. "Are you okay?"

"I'm wonderful." She found her voice. "He said I kept fainting because the rapid changes happening with my body. I was wondering why I was so hungry."

He put his hand on her belly again. He leaned down. "Hello little baby." Elena laughed. "You don't know it yet, but there are people here who love you." Then he kissed her belly. He looked in Elena's eyes and kissed her. "I can't believe it! This is wonderful! Do we know when it's due?"

"The end of December."

"What? Dec-We have to, to, to get baby stuff." He got up and paced. "We need a room for it, we have to get baby clothes. What are we going to name it?"

"Sporty," she took his hand and pulled him down next to her. "we have time for all that." she was rubbing his hand. "I can't believe it. I have a little person inside me." She started to cry.

He started tearing up with her. "You're projecting."

"I can't help it."

He held her for a few moments. "I'm so happy."

"So am I." She thought for a moment. " there is one thing." He looked at her. "We have to make sure Loquia doesn't think we love her any less. We have to involve her. Make sure she's a part of it."

"Of course we will. She's going to be a big sister. I'm sure she will love that. This is so wonderful. I love you. We have to tell everyone." He stood up.

"No, wait. Not until after Lilly's housewarming party. It's her time tonight."

"So, we'll tell Loquia tomorrow." He kissed her belly again.

"Yes, I think that would be best. And we can have a party and tell everyone else."

"I love you so much. I will never get tired of saying that."

"I will never get tired of hearing it. I love you, so very much."

"Oh, I'd better get Elder Matrik before Loquia starts examining him. How are you feeling? Can I get you anything?"

"I'm ok for the moment. Go find the elder." He kissed her and her belly again and left the room smiling.

Sportacus found him talking to Loquia and Ziggy in her bedroom.

"Ah, Íþróttaálfurinn. I trust everything went well?"

"Very much so. Thank you so much!" He was beaming. "I can't believe it!"

"Is mommy all better?"

"She needs rest but you can play with her." The kids grabbed their lab coats and went back to see Elena.

"Well, make sure she gets bed rest for at least a week. The child grows faster in this stage which creates rapid changes in her body. She should be fine after that. Well, I shall go back to the village. I think this is the first time in a while that I've made a house call."

"Oh, but while you're here-"

"You wish to talk about number nine." Sportacus nodded. "Not much is known. I have tried to find him myself but couldn't. He doesn't want to be found. He was very proud of his accomplishments. He saved people, but I don't know if he ever really understood what it was to be a hero. Then he came here, to LazyTown. One day I felt something strange. I felt...nothing. When I came here, he was gone. But I will say this, Íþróttaálfurinn, if anyone can find him, I think it would be you."

"Thank you, Elder Matrik, for everything."

The Elder gently tapped his staff on the floor and he disappeared.

Sportacus sat down for a moment. He was taking everything in. They were going to have a baby. He was overjoyed. He was the happiest elf on the planet. He couldn't wait to tell everyone. He sat down and went over everything in his mind. When he first came to LazyTown, when Elena first came into his life, when they got Loquia and now a baby is on the way. This was true happiness. He was truly blessed.

He got up smiling and headed back to the bedroom where the kids were showing Elena what the instruments were and what they did so she wouldn't be afraid when they examined her. He sat next to her and put an arm around her.

"Where did you ever learn about doctors?" She asked Loquia.

"Ziggy and the kids told me stuff. We play a lot on our stuffed animals."

"Yeah, because our animals get sick a lot."

"Really? And what do they usually have?" Sportacus asked.

"Most of them have tummy aches from eating too much candy." Ziggy answered.

"Then Ziggy brings them to my office and I operate and take out the candy so they feel better."

"Wow!" Sportacus smiled. "You must be very good doctors."

"And don't forget about the stickers, huh."

"Oh that's right. So, Miss Elena, because you were so brave, you get a sticker that says 'good job'." Elena and Sportacus chuckled as she put a sticker on her shirt.

"Well, thank you, doctors Loquia and Ziggy. I fell better already."

"Ok Ziggy, our work is done. Let's go!" And they headed outside.

"They are so sweet."

"Yes they are." He agreed.

She moved to get up and he held her arm keeping her on the bed.

"Oh no you don't. The Elder said you need bed rest for a week."

"What? But Lily's party."

"Nope. You stay put."

"Oh come on. I really want to go." She gave him her big pouty eyes. Now he understood what Robbie said. He could feel himself wanting to give in. "There has to be a way...please." She batted her green eyes.

"You know you're cheating. Ok. But, on my terms." She wrapped her arms around him and gave him a big kiss. "But after this you're staying in bed." So he helped her find clothes and get dressed. That took a bit more time as they got a bit amorous. Then he carried her to the party.
