Sorry this is so late. I've been really sick and busy trying to catch up in my classes. Enjoy!
Chapter 14
"Okay Mrs. Ely," Dr. Baker said walking into the room. "The test results are back and you are definitely pregnant. You're six weeks into your pregnancy."
"Really?" Sam asked squeezing Jake's hand.
"Yes," Dr. Baker replied. "Now I hope the two of you have a nice day."
Sam's smile was brilliant as she said, "We will."
When they got to their truck Jake pulled Sam in for a kiss. She deepened the kiss as she pulled him closer to her. Finally they pulled away when they needed air.
"So, how do you want to tell the family?" Sam asked leaning her head against his chest.
"Let's get her a gift she will never forget," Jake said hugging her before pulling apart from her.
"I have the perfect idea then," Sam said before hopping into the car.
Later that day Sam and Jake drove up to Three Ponies Ranch. Jake wrapped his arm around his wife as she carried the cake she made up to the house. In his other hand was the gift that they got for his mom. Quinn smiled at them as they entered the house and set down Kit's three year old girl.
"Hey Jake so got some good news?" Quinn asked raising his eyebrows.
"You'll just have to find out," Jake replied walking past him as Sam went to the kitchen.
"Jake, it's good to see you," Maxine said hugging her youngest son.
"Happy birthday mom," Jake said hugging her back.
"Thank you," she said pulling away from him, "Where's Sam?"
"In the kitchen, hiding the cake she made from my brothers.
"It's a good thing that is since I already saw Nate try to sneak away with sweets before you came."
Sam had just finished climbing down from a chair when Maxine walked into the room. Maxine smiled at Sam as she put the chair back in its place. Without a word Sam walked over to Maxine and gave her a hug.
"Happy birthday," Sam said pulling away from her.
"Thanks, and I'm guessing my cake is somewhere above the fridge."
"Yep, and we can hear anyone who tries to get it."
"You know my boys well," Maxine laughed.
"Well they are my brothers now."
"That's true."
Before either could say anything more, Jake picked up Sam. He then threw her over his shoulder as she yelled and hit him to let her down. Everyone just laughed at the two as Jake tossed her onto the couch.
"Dinner's ready," Luke yelled as he walked into the house with Wyatt, Brynna, Gram and Cody.
"Dad, I didn't realize that you were coming over," Sam said jumping up from the couch to give him a hug.
"Well like you mentioned earlier that we are all family now that you and Jake are married," Maxine said walking over to her husband.
"Sammy I don't like the fact that I can't see you everyday," Cody said crossing his arms.
"Well maybe when you have been a good boy to Dad and Brynna you could spend the night at my house," Sam said picking up a heavy Cody.
"Really?" Cody asked eyes full of excitement.
"Only if you're a good boy," Jake said sliding an arm around Sam.
Time seemed to fly by for Sam as they ate dinner. Quinn kept giving her a look asking when she was going to tell everyone. Sam just shrugged her shoulders, which caused him to roll his eyes. Nate caught the exchange and raised his eyebrows at them, which they just ignored. When it was time for cake Sam asked Jake to get it for her. Everyone gobbled down the cake and before she knew it they were in the living room waiting for Maxine to open her presents. Sam was sitting in Jake's lap as Maxine grabbed their present. Jake pulled Sam closer to him as a smile crept onto both of their faces. Confusion crossed Maxine's face as she first pulled out paint samples, then several cute animal stickers. The last thing she pulled out was very soft yarn.
"What's all this?" Maxine asked looking at the stickers.
"Think about it," Sam said shrugging her shoulders.
"No…you couldn't," she said touching the yarn.
"Six weeks," Sam replied confirming Maxine's trail of thoughts. "And we would like you to help decorate the room."
"Of course I will," Maxine said getting up to hug Sam. "Congrats by the way."
"Thank you," Sam said hugging her back.
"When did you find out?" she asked hugging Jake.
"Yesterday, but it was confirmed this morning at the doctors."
"Way to go Jake," Nate said clapping his hand on Jake's back.
"I can't believe you two are having a baby," Maxine exclaimed squeezing Sam's hand.
"So do you like your gift?" Jake asked.
"Yes, I love it," Maxine said hugging Sam and Jake again.
