Chapter 12
All three guys sat completely still, they each shared a stunned look. Mouths a gape, minds reeling. Chase was the one to finally speak. "All three of you?" he wanted to clarify, just in case.
"All three of us!" Zoey said, cheerfully grinning broadly at Chase.
Chase closed his mouth and smiled. "This is great!" he swept Zoey into his arms, and hugged her tight. "We're going to be parents!"
"Yeah, we're all going to be parents." Michael was still in shock. He stared over at Lola, also giving him a nervous look. "I 'm glad we're sitting."
"Why?" Lola asked worriedly, she was sure he would be ecstatic about this.
"Cause I'm might have fainted from shock." He whispered. "The he raised his voice. "I'm going to be a dad! WHOO!!" he picked up Lola and squeezed her tight.
Lola laughed, and settled into his arms a broad grin sweeping across her face.
Quinn hadn't moved, she refused
to look at Logan, afraid she would see hurt or anger in his eyes. She
stared at her lap, twiddling her fingers.
Logan spoke softly.
"Everything makes sense now."
"What?" Quinn asked, lifting her head. Logan's expression was impossible to read.
"The dinner, your tone on the phone, you being sick." He continued. "It all fits now."
"Yeah," Quinn whispered. All of a sudden tears began pouring out of her eyes and she began to sob.
"Quinn, honey, what's wrong?" Logan asked voice full of worry.
"Hormones," Michael whispered. Lola elbowed him in the stomach to silence him.
"I- I'm sorry," Quinn sobbed, burying her head in her arms.
Logan sighed. "Come here." He told her, extending his arms.
Quinn lifted her head and saw his caring look and stood. She walked over to him, and he brought her to his lap, and cradled her. She leaned back, into his shoulder, still sobbing.
"Shh… now what are you sorry for?" he asked, sweetly,
"I've ruined everything," Quinn chocked, tears cascading down her cheeks.
"Quinn, now stop!" Logan
commanded, placing a finger under chin and lifting her head. "You
didn't do this alone you know." He paused. "I did have a part
in this, right?"
Quinn chuckled softly. "Yeah,
definitely."
"Good, nothing has been ruined then. This is
wonderful!" His face was a broad grin.
The smile made Quinn slowly stop crying, she sat up straight in his lap. "But what about your internship?"
"What about it?" he asked gently.
"You were so excited, now…now…" She faltered.
"Now we are having a baby. We're going to be parents. The internship is no big deal, they'll understand and I have to I can always do another one." Logan continued. "This is better than anything."
Quinn smiled; she kissed him gently and hugged him tight, loving the feeling of his arms around her.
"See? Didn't we tell you?" Lola commented from her position in Michael's lap. "He's ecstatic."
"This is great but scary as hell," Chase laughed. "Little us's? This is going to be weird."
"Your kid is going to be fine. They'll be gullible but caring." Lola laughed.
"Well, yours will be wacky but kind," Zoey added.
"And yours," Michael pointed at Quinn and Logan, "will be great looking, pompous but extremely smart and sweet."
"That's all you," Logan smiled down at Quinn
"All but one," Quinn laughed.
"Well yeah but we'll break him of that fast," Logan added smiling.
Everyone laughed together as they thought about the new journey they were embarking on. One that would bring new members of their families and new experiences to their lives.
Five months later
Quinn felt a gentle kiss on her cheek and felt a stray hair being moved from her face, she yawned and stretched her arms and turned over. She opened her eyes to see Logan looking down at her, a smile plastered on his face. "Good morning sunshine," he said giving her a kiss.
"Morning," Quinn yawned again. Her eyes focused a bit more and took in her surroundings. Logan was sitting cross-legged on the bedspread; next to him was a portable table, filled with food: pancakes, juice, fruit and bacon, all of Quinn's favorites.
"That looks good." She said sitting up. Logan placed the tray on her lap, grabbing a piece of bacon for himself.
"Only the best for my two favorite girls," he smirked kissing Quinn's cheek and then her belly.
"Who said it's a girl?" Quinn smiled
"Hmm… just a feeling," Logan added. Quinn laughed, and began digging into her pancakes.
As Quinn swallowed the last piece of bacon they heard a loud bang, voice arguing then their names being called from the first floor.
"Logan! Quinn! Where are you?" it sounded like Lola and Zoey.
"Why did we give them keys again?" Logan asked, looking at Quinn, who was moving the tray away.
"Good question," Quinn smirked. "Upstairs!" she called to the girls
A minute later they heard feet pounding up the stairs and more arguing. "I'm fine." "Will you stop?" "You shouldn't be exherting yourself!" "Why are we here?" Quinn laughed listening to the intertwining voices. A second later Lola, Michael, Chase and Zoey entered the room. Zoey and Lola panting slightly from the climb with the additional weight.
"You!" Lola shrieked, pointing at Logan. "Take them!" she pointed at Chase and Michael.
"What?" Logan asked, he was lying on his side, watching the scene with his head on his hand.
"They are driving us insane," Lola continued.
"We just want to help," Michael answered.
"And take care of you," Chase added.
"Yes, we know. We love you for it but we need to be able to do things for ourselves." Zoey said gently patting Chase's face. "Like shop, cook, get the remote."
"But…"
"Alright,"
Quinn held up her hands, "Why don't you guys help Logan with the
dishes and we'll talk, okay?"
"But…"Michael started, but shut his mouth with the glare from Lola.
"Come on," Logan gathered the dishes and tray and gave Quinn a quick kiss before leaving the room. Chase and Michael following reluctantly behind.
Once the guys were gone, Lola went and shut the door. "Tell me he is driving you nuts," She screeched turning to Quinn.
Quinn sighed, lying back on the pillow she said. "I haven't eaten breakfast in the kitchen in two and a half months."
Zoey laughed. "I love them, but God are they a little clingy."
"I know, I mean I come back from class and Michael's like 'sit, don't move. I'll make dinner, get you drinks, change the channel, study and do everything else." Lola sat on the bed. "He's great, but he's not superman either. I want to do something."
"I know what you mean. Chase is continually fluffing pillows, giving me water, asking how I feel, reading books and giving advice." Zoey laughed. "I mean some information is fine but I want to talk about TV shows or celebrity lives, not how long till my figure is back or how big things stretch."
Quinn laughed along, sitting back up, "yeah, well if I'm standing for more than ten minutes Logan makes me sit. He's even taken me out of the shower, before."
All three girls laughed. They loved their husbands but their babysitting was getting slightly annoying.
"You know what? Today their going out, to play basketball, football, hockey, get drunk, whatever." Lola declared. "They need guy time and we need girl time."
"I like it," Quinn decided, getting out of bed. "Let's go."
The three of them headed down the stairs to the kitchen and found Logan drying the last dish and putting it in the cabinet. "Babe, you shouldn't be on your feet." He went to grab a chair but Quinn caught his wrist.
"No, we've decided you three are going to go out today." Quinn grinned.
"Go play sports, go to a bar, go play in the mud, do whatever you do." Lola said, walking to Michael. "I love you but we need girl time."
"Alone," Zoey added seeing Chase open his mouth.
"But what if something happens? What if you need something? We need to stay here." Logan said.
"No, you don't. We'll be fine. We have your numbers, we'll call if we need you," Quinn answered patting Logan's cheek.
"We need you to go away. We love you but you're smothering us." Zoey smiled at Chase. "You're the best husband ever, but we want to have some us time."
"Plus you guys have to be dying for some guy time," Quinn added, "Taking care of us, isn't easy."
"Well…" Michael didn't want to admit it but he did miss hanging out with Logan and Chase.
"It's settled, you go hang, and we'll hang here. It will be fine."Lola started steering the guys to the door. She gave Michael a quick kiss, saying, "Love you."
Zoey and Quinn followed suit, and then they ushered them out and shut the door. "We've just been thrown out!" Michael scoffed.
"Yes, yes we have." Chase laughed walking to the car.
Once the door had shut and they heard the car engine rev, they knew the guys were gone. They breathed a sigh of relief. That was much easier than they thought it was going to be.
"So what are we going to do with our alone time?" Lola asked, turning toward Zoey and Quinn.
"Movie, dinner, chatting, and anything else we can't normally do with them around. " Zoey declared.
"Well it's like noon, so I sat we go out in the back, get some nice chars, and enjoy the sun and chat." Quinn suggested. She hadn't been able to hang outside for awhile; Logan was always trying to cover here up with a blanket or making her go inside because he said the sun was too hot.
Both Zoey and Lola agreed, they headed out back, pulled out some lawn chairs, brought some waters and fruit and lay out. They chatted, and laughed. They talked about their morning sickness, their cravings and the wacky things their husbands did.
An hour later, the sun was starting to get real hot; all three girls agreed it was time to go in for the shade and food. After lifting themselves slowly out of the chairs, they waddled inside.
"Sandwiches and fruit, sound good?" Quinn asked as she walked over to the fridge.
"Sounds great," Lola huffed collapsing into a chair. "That walk made my feet throb. Argh!" She sighed. Zoey joined her at the table and patted her back. Lola was carrying a little more than the other two, as she was having twins.
"Well this should help," Quinn placed a peanut butter and banana sandwich (one of their cravings) on the table along with some watermelon, cantaloupe and grapes. The three girls sat and slowly ate. Once the food was gone, the plates were placed in the sink and the three of them went to the living room.
Quinn collapsed on the couch, Zoey in the chair and Lola in the loveseat.
"My feet!" Lola whined.
"I know, I need a nap," Quinn sighed.
"I miss Chase; he always makes me feel better." Zoey sighed.
"I know, Michael always rubs my feet and makes me smile, even when I really don't want to."
"Well, I think we know what this means." Quinn said. After receiving raised eyebrows from Zoey and Lola, she continued. "We need out guys back, I'm calling Logan."
"Thank God!!" Zoey and Lola cheered.
Quinn pulled out her phone and dialed Logan; he picked up on the second ring. "You alright?" his first thought was something had happened.
"We miss you!" Quinn whined. "We want you back."
Logan laughed. "But what happened to 'we need alone time, girl time?'"
"We were so wrong, our feet hurt, we are cranky, and we want our guys back to make us feel better." Quinn was pouting; she hoped it was heard in her voice.
"Well stop pouting, we'll come right home. We are in the park and have been betting on how long till you called. I won." Logan said.
"Gloat all you want, just come back." Quinn replied.
"We'll in back in ten," Logan answered. "Love you."
"Love you too." Quinn replied as she hung up. "They are at the park, and will be back in ten minutes. Apparently they were placing bets on how long till we called them back. Logan won."
Zoey laughed, "They know us to well."
"I don't care, I want Michael." Lola whined.
Ten minutes later, they heard the door open, and saw the guys enter the living room. "Well, well, I guess we are needed more than was previously thought." Michael joked.
"Oh shut it and get over here and hug me." Lola pouted. Michael just laughed as he went to join her on the chair. He sat behind her letting her rest against him and stroked her hair. Chase joined Zoey on the recliner, putting out the foot rest and allowing her to snuggle into him. Logan walked to the TV, flipped open the DVD player put a random movie in, grabbed the remote and hit play. "We aren't going to be moving and I figured no one is going to want to get up, so we are watching whatever is in there." He went to the couch, and sat down. Quinn crawled over and placed a pillow in his lap and lay down. All three girls felt comfortable and very happy to have their guys back, taking care of them. They all were asleep in a matter of an hour.
Never again did they complain about the over protection or service. Till the day the babies were born, they took advantage of it and appreciated it all. Lola had the twins first, Max and Noel. Zoey and Chase's daughter came a week later, Melinda and Quinn and Logan's daughter just two days later, Melissa. Now the attention was moved to the babies, something no one minded.
