Chapter 13

July 19th, 2011

After the gig, Lea and Cory went out with the guys. They were driving along getting ready to stop when Lea told Cory, "It seems our news is causing an uproar."

Cory looked at her, "It is?"

"I do believe I received a call from every Glee cast member. Lets just say they were a little less than happy that they were finding out over Twitter that we were adding to the family. So many of our fans have sent out congratulations. We should check out Tumblr later and see what we can find. I bet there is a stir up there, too. I am just so happy that we don't have to hid anymore. Oh, looking at FanFics would probably bring some good laughs, too."

Cory took her hand. "We never have to hide again. I am so glad to see that ring staying on your finger from now on."

"It will at least until later in the pregnancy when my feet and hands are so swollen that it won't fit any longer."

"That is the only time I want to see it off your hand."

"You have my word it is never coming off unless it has to. Can we go out shopping tomorrow? I want to buy clothes that show off our little fetus."

"You got it. I'll buy you whatever you want. Tomorrow is going to be all about you and our little fetus."

"I can't wait until we find out what we are having. I am really hoping it's a girl. I'm warming up to the idea of the nursery you have. Di told me when she took Mark shopping with her yesterday he bought girl clothes just because he had a feeling we were having a girl. I just keep thinking we are going to have ourselves a little Briley Emelia Dianna. I know that is a heck of a name for her, but it is special. Your mom's middle name is Emelia. Dianna is my best friend and has been there for everything I have ever needed her for."

"Where did Briley come from?"

"I don't know. When I was younger I always thought I would name my first daughter Briley for some reason. If you don't like that name we can always go with something else. I shouldn't pick out her name all by myself. She would be half of yours, too."

Cory laughed. "I love that name. I think it would be perfect for our little girl. I like Levi if it is a boy."

"If we have a boy could it be Hudson Levi Alan-Marc? Alan after you and Marc after my dad and Mark. Hudson for Finn since he part of what got us together in the beginning. We can call him Levi."

"I think that is perfect. It seems we have names no matter what we have. I just keep picturing a little girl just like you. I see her having me wrapped around her little finger. I keep having dreams about her. The one last night she fell off her bike and I was kissing her knee."

Lea wiped a tear from her eye. "That is the cutest thing I have ever heard. You are going to be such a great dad. I have no experience with babies. I am going to be a terrible mom."

"Don't say that. You are going to be great. Maybe while we are in Montreal we can babysit Adaline for Shaun. He doesn't take any time for himself. It would give us practice and it would give her a chance to get to know you."

"I think that would be a lot of fun. You are so smart."

"No, not really."

"Oh yes you are."


Cory and Lea pulled in the parking lot of the ice cream shop they were meeting Justin, Josh, Jacob and Seth at. Lea was excited because she was craving a big ice cream with chocolate chips, strawberries and sour patch kids.

Lea was laying back on the bed in her pajamas when Cory came in and laid next to her. He asked, "Have you felt them kick any more since this morning?" He put his hand on her swollen bump.

Lea laughed. "Sorry, babe. I am thinking that hard of a kick was a onetime thing for a while. I have been able to feel them, but none of them have been hard enough that you could probably feel any."

Cory pushed up his oversized t-shirt Lea was wearing. He kissed her hardly there baby bump. Then he said, "I see how it is. You like to mess with daddy's head already. You let me feel you once, but then I won't be able to feel you for another month. You have to be a girl. Only girls would be that mean."

Lea laughed. She pulled Cory up to meet her lips. She gave him a kiss and said, "You were threatening to ground them earlier. They wanted to stand up for his or herself."

"I guess you are right. That just means that I will have to have my hands on you at all times to make sure I don't miss it."

Lea giggled. "I don't think I will fight with you over that one. You know I love it when you hold me. I am just so happy we get to go out in public all we want to. You can officially move into my place now."

"I have been thinking about that, babe. I think we should buy a house. I want to have a yard that our kids can run around in. I want to be able to build them a swing set, or at least try to. I want to have a pool. I want there to be plenty of room for us and when our family comes to visit."

Lea had tears in her eyes. "I would love that. We can start looking when we get back to LA."

"That sounds great, babe. I can't wait to really start my life with you."

"It has already started. It just isn't such a secret anymore."

"Mrs. Monteith, curl up in my arms and fall asleep. We have a big day of shopping ahead of us tomorrow. I want you to be well rested."

Lea giggled. "I'm not Mrs. Monteith yet, but I will be very soon."

The two of them fell asleep.
