I hope everyone had a great Christmas (here in Australia its just drawing to a close). Read and review!


"It's not that funny, Puckerman", Finn snapped down the phone, as both Quinn and Puck unsuccessfully tried to hold in their laughter. "Seriously, Quinn-"

It was a better reaction than they had gotten from their parents. Finn and Rachel had instructed the five of them to gather in Hiram and Leroy Berry's house, calling them on speakerphone.

There had been silence for at least two minutes, prompting Finn to check if they were still alive.

"Honey, triplets?" Shelby had said in shock.

Kurt and Blaine had been next on the list- when Rachel told them, she had heard their gasps.

"Triplets?" Kurt had said faintly, before promptly following his brother's footsteps and falling off his chair (there had been shrieks from Blaine and Thomas and hysterical laughter from Rachel, as they no doubt replayed the scene she witnessed had the afternoon before).

Rachel could only imagine Santana and Brittany's comments- while Santana's nicknames were more loving than spiteful (as they had been when they were teenagers), she rolled them out by the bucketful. "You'll be as round as you are tall!" she could only imagine the Latina chortling.

"But seriously, Rachel, triplets?" Quinn said.

"Imagine how we felt, Fabray!"

"Its Puckerman to you", she shot back with a grin. "Wow… I have to say, this is not what I expected when I saw your name on the phone".

"Do you think we expected it, Quinn?" Finn asked her.

He had woken up to find himself on the floor of the ultrasound room, Rachel standing over him worriedly. For a moment, he thought it had been a dream, but then reality sunk in.

They had lost three beautiful children less than six months ago- their guardian angels. And somehow, they had found themselves pregnant with three more.

"It has to be saying something", he had said to Rachel on the way home, and she had nodded animatedly, almost too wound up to speak.

"Listen, I've got to go and pick up Bethy and Ella, but I'll call you back tonight", Quinn told them. "Wow, imagine what they're going to say… wait, can I tell the girls?"

"You can tell the girls", Finn agreed, "But tell them to keep it on the down low".

"No one says that", Puck objected.

"I say that!"

Rachel laughed, calling down the phone. "Bye guys! Love you!"

"Love you too", Quinn replied, leaving their husbands to talk among themselves.

"Triplets".

"Yep".

"Didn't expect that".

"Didn't even know she was freakin' pregnant".

"Freaking out?"

"Hell yes".

"Happy?"

"Never been happier". Finn broke into a dopey grin, smiling to himself.

He was going to be a father with children once more.
