"Cheers." We said in unison.

A/N Like I said, I have skipped pretty much the whole pregnancy so this is set 9 months after the last chapter. Enjoy.

A lot has changed in the last nine months; we have been living in Adrian's house and I still feel like I'm living on a cloud, a million dollar cloud. Adrian has sort of acted like my partner with the baby and everything because Lissa has Sparky, I don't mind because I know he doesn't have romantic intentions in mind.

I have also got ENORMOUS. Like I don't have issues with my weight because it just lets me know that my baby girl is growing but still. It's me and Lissa both, but the boys don't have an issue about it, some stupid pregnant glow or something. Also, why do they call it morning sickness if it lasts all day?

After all this time, Lissa and Christian forgot to have an engagement dinner, they told everyone but they never made it official so they decided to have it tonight. It will just be a small gathering with a few of our friends, Tasha can't make it. Well I'm not complaining. Since we both got knocked up at around the same time, there is only a day between our due dates, Lissa's is in 2 days and then mine the day after. It's all so nerve racking.

They are planning on having the wedding a week after the both the babies are born. She has her wedding dress and it is so gorgeous. I am the maid of honor and have also got my dress – I love it, Mia and Jill are the other bridesmaids so they have matching dresses (You can see my profile for all pictures). Well I need to go get dressed for the dinner tonight unless I want Lissa to have a go at me, stupid hormones.

-At Engagement dinner-

Okay so it's only 6pm and I'm ready to go to sleep, seriously this baby is messing with my sleeping patterns. Everyone has arrived, it's not that many people – just Eddie, Masen, Mia, Jill and Aaron. It was nice and snug just the nine of us, most seemed to be having a good time but Aaron seemed pretty miserable, you would have thought that he would have gotten over his forever lasting crush on Lissa, for goodness's sake she is pregnant and this is her ENGAGEMENT DINNER! Stupid wishful guys.

So here I am, all dolled up in my new dress (see profile for pictures) and absolutely nothing to do. Everyone seems to be talking to someone, eating or preparing more food, I feel like the ninth wheel and it's my best friends engagement party. I was suddenly jolted out of my daydreaming when someone tapped on my shoulder, I turned around and couldn't believe my eyes; I was staring at the person I hated most.

"Mum?" I don't believe this.

"Hello Rosemarie, it's been a while." Well I wonder who's fault that was. What the hell is she doing here?

"Um. What are you doing here?" this didn't make sense

"Vasilisa invited me, I came to give my congratulations and I wanted to see you, since you left the academy I haven't known how or where to contact you." Maybe that was done on purpose, ever thought of that mum?

"Yea, well maybe I didn't want you to know where I was. Maybe, just maybe I didn't want you to be able to contact me because for the last five years, you haven't bothered to." Now I was angry, she can't just come here, she shouldn't be here.

"That is unfair, you know why I couldn't visit."

"Unfair on you? You have got to be kidding me. You weren't the one who was left motherless since you could crawl. And you could visit, you just decided not to because you decided to put your job as first priority in front of everything, including looking after your only daughter!" I was almost crying, damn hormones.

"You know exactly why I had to be a guardian before a mother. Are you going to always stay angry at me for a decision I chose seventeen years ago?" She had a point but I was though being rational,

"You are not my mother. To be a mother you have to actually be there."

"I know. I know what I have done but I'm here to make up for it, to be a good grandmother. Not that I would have known you were pregnant in the first place unless but the princess told me."

"You didn't need to know. It's just the four of us here and we like it that way. You're not supposed to be here and I think it best if you leave now." Was I really saying this?

"No, Rosemarie Hathaway, I am not leaving until we have talked about this." Right after she said this, I cringed because the baby kicked really hard, that's my girl, no matter how much it hurt.

"I don't have anything to say to you mother." I said the last word cased in venom.

"Well I have something to say to you and you are going to listen. I am sorry for leaving you when you were a baby but I am not going to spend the rest of my life apologizing for it. What I am going to do is be there for my granddaughter, it may be too late for me and you but it's not too late for me and your daughter." I was still silent. "Rose." Still no response. "Rose, say something."

"My water just broke."
