Ted's POV
It was nearly 9am when Stephanie and I woke up. I didn't want to get up, but knew that if I didn't we would stay in bed all day. I took a quick shower and after I was drying off and dressed, I headed downstairs to call Shan. I still hadn't heard from her and I hoped that everything was ok.
"Hey Teddy." Shanna answered weakly.
"Where are you? Are you okay? Is Orton okay?" I asked her.
"We are okay I am tender and just not feeling good. Randy might have a broken hand now from knocking Cody out last night." Shanna told me and I couldn't help but chuckle.
"Nice… Hey do you two want to meet for lunch?" I asked "I told Cody not to go over there he didn't listen did he?"
"I think lunch will be fine what time?" Shan asked me "And Cody will never listen. Randy had to carry him to the spare room so he could sleep and he isn't up yet…never mind here he comes I need to go."
"Okay. How about 11:30 hon? See ya then at Applebee's hon." I told her before hanging up.
I'm not exactly sure what's going to happen this afternoon, but whatever it is. I will always be there for my sister no matter what. Steph was just getting out of the shower when I walked into our bedroom. She gave a worried look and I became concerned.
"Baby, what's wrong?" I asked.
"I'm late." She answered.
"Late? Late for what?" I asked not thinking about what she meant.
"My monthly is late." She answered.
"Oh. Are you sure?" I asked.
"Yeah. It always comes around the beginning of the month and it's not here." Stephanie answered.
"Ok. Well, you have an appointment this afternoon with Ambyr, just ask her to order a pregnancy test." I suggested.
"I will. What if we are pregnant?" Steph asked.
"Well, if we're pregnant, then we'll just have to convert one of the rooms into a nursery." I answered.
"You wouldn't be upset that we're having a baby so soon after getting married?" She asked me.
"Of course not. Now let's not worry about that until we know for sure. We need to meet Shan at Applebee's at 11:30." I answered.
"Is everything ok with Shan?" She asked with concern in her voice.
"I don't know. She sounded different on the phone. But we will find out soon enough." I answered.
Stephanie and I left our house around 11:00 and made it to the restaurant before Shanna. We got a table and asked for 4 menus. Soon Shanna walked in with my soon-to-be brother-in-law, Randy, hand in hand. As soon as Shanna sat down she got back up and ran for the bathroom. I figured that she was still feeling sick from the upper repertory infection.
"Hey. You okay Shan?" I asked her as she returned to our table.
"Not really, my stomach is turning, I am still very tender and just feel blah today" she answered. "But there is something that Randy and I need to tell you guys."
"Go for it Shanna. Just spit it out." I told her and of course I was smacked by Steph for being a smartass.
"I'm 16 almost 17 weeks pregnant with Randy's baby." Shan stated quietly.
"Congrats sweetie! When did you guys find out?" Stephanie asked as I still had this look of 'my sister is what and you did what to her look?' towards Randy.
"We found out yesterday morning and told Cody and to our surprise Kelly is pregnant as well" Randy stated as he put an arm around Shanna.
"Teddy say something please" Shanna begged.
"I don't know what to say but congrats and I have to say I am glad its not with Cody and Kelly is pregnant by?" I asked.
"Cody." Randy and Shanna said together.
I sat there taking in all the info that was just given to me. I knew that something had been going on, and now I know with who. I really was glad that Shanna was with Randy now and getting away from Cody. I still wanted to beat the crap out of Cody, but I figured I could leave that to Randy and my dad.
"When are you going to tell mom and dad?" I asked her.
"As soon as possible. I know that I need to tell Brett too." Shanna answered.
"Yeah. And just like me and dad, he's going to want to kill Cody. But let's just hope that he doesn't want to kill Randy too." I responded.
I gave my sister a hug and shook Randy's hand before we left Applebee's. All I wanted to do was find Cody and give him a piece of my mind. But it would have to wait for now. Steph and I got in the car and headed over to the doctor's office. I wasn't sure what to expect from her doctor's appointment, but seeing as though her doctor was my sister, Ambyr, this would be interesting.
"Stephanie Orton." a nurse called.
We followed the nurse and she took her vitals. Then we told to wait and that Dr. Heller, Ambyr, would be in shortly. As we waited I sat in a hard plastic chair and flipped through a magazine. Steph sat on the exam table and read through a book about pregnancy.
"Hey Steph. Teddy. How are you today?" Ambyr asked.
"Good. Just had lunch with Shan and Randy." I answered.
"How did that go?" Ambyr asked.
"Good." I answered.
"Ok. So Steph, what brings you in today?" She asked as she listened to Steph's heart and lungs.
"I'm a week late." Stephanie answered.
"What is with this week? All the member's of Legacy trying to procreate?" Ambyr asked.
"I guess." I answered with a smile.
"Ew. I didn't need to know that, Teddy." Ambyr responded.
After getting checked out, we were sent to the lab for blood work. After we left the doctor's office, I drove towards home. Stephanie called her dad and talked to him for a little bit but he had to go as Shanna and Randy were there.
Later that afternoon Stephanie and I decided to clean out the spare room closest to our room. While we were cleaning, the house phone rang. I ran downstairs to get it and answered it.
"Hello." I stated.
"Teddy. It's Ambyr. I have Steph's lab results." Ambyr responded.
"Ok. Let me give the phone to her." I stated as I walked upstairs. "Steph it's Ambyr."
"Hi Ambyr. Yeah. Ok. Thank you. We will be there." Stephanie stated before hanging up. "We need to be back in her office at 4."
"Is everything ok?" I asked.
"We're pregnant!" Stephanie answered.
"We are? That's great news. Did she say how far along or anything?" I asked truly excited that I was going to be a dad.
"No. That's why she wants us to come back in. She wants to do a sonogram." Stephanie answered.
I gave Steph and big hug before we got ready to leave again. Once we were back at Ambyr's office we were taken back to her office right away. Ambyr did the sonogram and we got to see the baby for the first time. She was nice enough to print a picture for us to take home. Steph was about 7 weeks along which meant that she would still fit into her wedding dress next Saturday.
