This is going to be a shorter than average chapter. I wanted to get them moved in and then have the gender reveal party. So this is just going to be a little filler chapter where they got there furniture and hanging up pictures and setting up bookcases and other stuff like that. It's just going to be a short, fluffy chapter. Enjoy!:)

Chapter 19: Moving In

Elsa POV

1 Month Later

"Put that box down!" Grace yells at me. I hand the box to her and she fixes me with a glare, "Listen girlie, you are seventeen weeks pregnant. You will not be lifting any boxes!"

"You people really need to do some more research on pregnancies. I'll do what I'm comfortable with." I tell her, "There are women who run 5K races at seventeen weeks!"

"Here," She hands me the shade to the lamp that Jack and I had bought last week, "You can carry this."

"But―"

"Jack! Come keep you baby mama from lifting anything heavy!" Grace shouts before getting a better grip of the box and rushing out of Jack's old apartment.

"What?" Jack asks as he comes down the stairs, carrying two tubs full of stuff.

"Let me help you." I say, reaching for a tote.

"No." He says, holding it out of my reach, "You just carry your lampshade and watch Marvin." I look down at where the little puppy is running in-between my feet.

"Fine." I huff. Jack stacks the rest of his stuff on top of the totes and gives me the keys to lock the doors. Once we get downstairs, I turn in his keys and go to the parking garage to find his car. Marvin jumps into the open passenger-side door and I slide in after him. Jack then climbs in and we start the drive to his new house with the mover truck and his parents driving behind us. I look at the lampshade in my lap and smile at the disaster of shopping for furniture last week.

"What are you so smiley about?" Jack asks.

"Just thinking about last week. How you wanted a pool table over a couch..." I laugh.

"I told you, I was being sarcastic! I love the couch we got. It's very comfortable. And it matches Marvin's fur so we won't have to worry about shedding." Jack reasons.

"I love the couch too... Until we get a grape juice stain."

"Debbie Downer." Jack scoffs. I stick my tongue out at him. "You realize when we get there that no one's going to let you carry anything."

"Ugh, I know! Bring in paintings and pictures and books and stuff and I'll start hanging and arranging that stuff." I state.

"Will do." Jack gives me a mock salute and I roll my eyes. I rest my hand on my baby bump and think about the little baby girl. I'd just had another appointment last week and we'd had another confirmation that the baby would be a girl. Marian explained to us that the definite sex of the baby wouldn't be 100% until the birth though.

"We're here." Jack says twenty minutes later as we pull up to the house.

"Oh, how am I supposed to carry all of this stuff? I'm pregnant you know!" I say in mock horror. I hear him chuckle at me as I open my door and Marvin shoots out onto the lawn. The moving truck pulls up and Reginald steps out and waves at me.

"Hey!" He shouts.

"Hi." I call back and walk over to him, "What can I help you with?"

"Um, you just keep carrying that lampshade." He says and opens the big door at the back.

"Oh come on. Women run 5K races at seventeen weeks! They run those races at thirty weeks!" I say exasperatedly. Reginald laughs and pulls out the dolly as Tanya and Grace pull up. "Tanya, help me out here. I can carry a few boxes!"

"Elsa, are you trying to corrupt my mother?" Jack asks.

"No..." I trail off.

"Sorry Elsa, but I have to agree with everyone else. You're not carrying anything too heavy." Tanya states.

"C'mon," Jack says to me, "Let's go unlock our house." He dangles the keys from his fingers as we walk to the front door. He unlocks it and Marvin rushes into the house.

"Exciting." I say, raising my eyebrows.

"Yep. Now you wait in here, I'll go grab some paintings for you to start hanging up." He jokes. I sigh and swing my lampshade back and forth while walking around the house. The furniture people had delivered the furniture a couple of days ago, but I doubted I'd be allowed to try and arrange it so I sat on the couch waiting while they brought in the boxes. Grace carried in the lamp and I jumped up so I could place the shade on it.

"There." I say triumphantly, "Now can I do something?"

"You just did." Grace sing-songs and then runs out to continue unloading the truck.

"Here," Jack hands me a medium-sized box, "That's got silverware in it. You can start putting them in the drawers."

"Thank you." I say and stomp into the kitchen. I start organizing the silverware in the drawer as Grace brings in a few more boxes which she announces are plates, bowls, pans, cooking utensils, cups, a mixer, a toaster, and a blender. I manage to unpack everything and put it in the correct place.

"Hey, got everything in here?" Jack asks.

"Yes." I say stiffly.

"Hey, don't be like that."

"Be like what? I'm not being like anything." I shrug. Jack shakes his head and gives me a grin.

"We've got everything unloaded." Jack says.

"Cool."

"Oh come on... whatever. Do you want to unpack the dining room or the living room stuff first?" He asks.

"Let's do the dining room." We walk into the dining room where Reginald and Tanya are trying to hang up a picture of a family quote.

"I love that quote." I comment.

"We have one hanging up in our dining room so we got one for you guys." Tanya tells me.

"That's so sweet." I smile. They stand back to admire their handiwork and Reginald turn to the boxes sitting on the table.

"Shall we get started?" He asks.

"I couldn't ask you guys to do that. You already unloaded all of that stuff." I say.

"It's no problem at all dear." Tanya assures me, but Jack steps in.

"No, really guys. You've done so much already. We've got it." He says.

"Well," Tanya looks at Reginald, "Alright. But we'll come over tomorrow to help! No buts!"

"Besides, the truck needs returned anyway." Reggie says.

"Goodbye." Jack hugs his mom and then his dad. Grace runs into the room and he sweeps her up in a hug too. "Goodbye Gracie Bear! I'll miss you so!"

"Jack..." Grace whines and Jack releases her. We all say our goodbyes and they leave, taking the moving truck with them.

"How long was that?" I ask Jack when we're back in the dining room. I start folding up some place mats and placing them in a drawer.

"Not long. I think it took about two hours. It would've been longer if we'd had to unload the furniture and all that." Jack says.

"Thank God for the nice people at the furniture store." I say.

"Amen." Jack agrees. He goes to start unpacking the boxes in the living room while I set the table.

"So I was thinking about the names..." I start.

"So was I..." Jack says.

"Do you have a favorite?" I ask.

"Oh, I don't know. Maybe. I... I don't know." He says.

"I thought it would be nice to be able to share the baby's name at the party, so I didn't know if you had any thoughts."

"Well, I was thinking... I really like Rosaline." Jack seems a little embarrassed.

"Why are you embarrassed?" I ask.

"I'm not!" Jack states.

"It's fine, it's cute. You caring about your little girl." I rub my stomach, "I love Rosaline. I was thinking that name too."

"So, Rosaline?" Jack asks.

"Yeah. Rosaline." I agree.

"That seemed a little anticlimactic." Jack says.

"Just a little." I say, "Middle names. I was looking at them last night. How does Rosaline Brielle sound?"

"It sounds perfect," Jack smiles and gets down so he's talking to my stomach, "Hey baby girl. Do you like your name?"

Again, sorry about the short chapter. Hope you like the baby's name. Gender Reveal party will be next chapter. Please review, follow, and favorite! Thanks for reading!:)
