"I don't think that goes there." Haley announced, turning the instructions in her hands around, how the hell did you read these things?
"It will." Nathan said between clenched teeth.
Haley rolled her eyes as he tried to force two bits of wood together. Men and their egos. "Are you sure you don't want to look at the instructions?"
Nathan scoffed/laughed. "It's a crib Hales, I think I can put it together."
"Obviously you can't." she murmured, they'd been in the small room that was beside there's for almost an hour as he tried to put the wooden crib they'd bought a couple of weeks ago together. 'Together' wasn't exactly the right word. He'd already snapped a bit and the screws that came with it were no where to be found.
"What?"
"Nothing." she rolled her eyes again, grumbling quietly to herself as she waddled from the room. "I just want little Edward to have a bed by the time he gets here." She grinned to herself, one, two, three…
"Haley." Nathan followed her from the room. "I am not calling my son Edward."
"What's wrong with it?" She asked, "It's better than Michael."
"Michael is a perfectly good name." He told her, resting his elbows on the kitchen table while she opened the fridge.
"Yeah, except when you're naming him it only because it's Michael Jordon's."
He grinned at her and shrugged, "it's still better than Edward."
"Whatever you say, honey." She batted her lashes at him, opening the water bottle and taking a gulp before handing it to him. "Now will you please call Lucas and ask him to come and help you?" It was more of a statement than a question. "For us." She gave him her best sad eyes and placed a hand on her stomach.
Nathan grinned lopsidedly and shook his head, sighing he pulled her into his chest, "You don't play fair, Mrs Scott."
Haley grinned, leaning up and placing a kiss under his jaw. "Never said I did."
His eyes closed shut involuntarily at the feeling of her lips on his skin, leaving a burning trail in their path as she kissed her way down his neck.
"Okay so I'm going over to Brooke's, then we're going shopping," She told him, "Call Lucas please." she smiled before walking into their room.
"Hales," He groaned in frustration, his body reacting o it's own accord.
Haley giggled innocently, sending him a wink over her shoulder as she closed the door. She never did say she played fair.

"Mmm."
"Get a room." Brooke told her friend.
Haley put another forkful of chocolate cake into her mouth. "I would get a room with this cake, I bet I could show this cake a good time."
Brooke rolled her eyes but laughed. "Okay so after we're done here I need to go to First Steps."
"Why?"
"Well I cant have my little nephew running around naked, can I?"
Haley sipped her milkshake. "Brooke, Nathan and I've already bought clothes for him."
She scoffed, "Brooklyn is so lucky he has his Aunty Brooke, at least one adult in his life with fashion sense." She giggled as Haley slapped her arm. "I just want to buy him something."
"Not even born yet and he's already spoiled." Haley smiled softly, unconsciously placing her hand on the side of her belly.
Brooke smiled, "Just want Aunty Brooke's for."
"I actually wanted to talk to you about that." Haley said as they stood up, both girls linking arms as they made their way to First Steps. "Nathan and I want you to be Edward's godmother."
The shock was apparent on the taller brunettes face, "Oh my God, Haley." she pulled her into her arms, holding her as tight as her belly would allow. "Really?" Brooke pulled back just enough to look into Haley's eyes, feeling her brown pools glaze over.
"Of course." She grinned, laughing when she was immediately crushed into another hug.
"Oh, you are going to be the best looked after baby ever." Brooke grinned tearily, "and you are not naming him Edward." she told her best friend.
Haley simply laughed.
"Godmother and lunch all in one day? You do spoil me James."
"I didn't pay for lunch, I thought you did?"
Brooke shook her head and the both fell into laughter again as they made their way to the shop.

Haley groaned as she made her way into the kitchen, with one hand placed on her lower back she tried to be quiet which wasn't an easy task when she felt as big as a house. Been eight and a half weeks pregnant was not fun, especially not for her feet, or her back.
Placing a hand on her stomach she couldn't help but smile as her palm was met with a swift kick. "I know Baby, I know." Even after fighting over the last couple of months about names they still hadn't agreed on one, and even after asking again and again for him to tell her what his name was in the dream he had Nathan wouldn't budge. She'd even threatened to withhold sex, but with her hormones on overdrive with the pregnancy, and the sheer hotness of her husband that threat didn't hold out.
She jumped slightly as two strong arms circled her waist but leaned back into the hard chest, a soft smile growing on her lips as she closed her eyes.
"Where'd you go?" Nathan murmured into her ear, bending down slightly to rest his chin on her shoulder.
Haley laughed quietly, "well your son it would be fun to play kickboxing with my bladder." she leaned up and grabbed the jar of peanut butter from the cupboard. "And then he got a craving for peanut butter." She explained innocently, turning around in his arms, while he kept his locked around her waist.
"How come he's always my son when he makes you get up in the middle of the night?" He grinned, trailing his nose along her cheek, his lips following.
"Because there's a few times you've woken me up in the middle of the night." She grinned wickedly at him.
Nathan smirked, his eyes shutting and a small sigh escaping. "Good times." He chuckled as she smacked his chest. Watching her sit on the large counter in the middle of the kitchen he leaned on the side opposite her. "So I was thinking, since he could be coming out anytime now that we should finally name him."
"I was actually becoming quite fond of Him." Haley told him, "Or Baby, either way I'm sold." She smiled teasingly.
Nathan cracked a grin, God he loved her. "I was actually thinking of James."
All teasing fell from her face.
"But Baby's fine with me, too. If that's what you want-"
He was cut off by her lips attaching themselves to his.
Running her fingers through his dark silky locks Haley pulled back, a breathtaking smile on her face. "It's perfect, Nathan. I love it."
He grinned, "Good."
A small splashing sound suddenly sounded.
"And I think he does too." Haley gasped silently, placing a hand on her stomach.
Nathan's eyebrows rose in shock, but an anticipating smile broke out on his lips.
"It's time."

So my lovelies, sadly next chapter is the last, I wanted to make it longer but I was just running out of ideas and honestly I don't think I could have even if I wanted to, but I think I stretched it out as far as I could. Thanks to everyone who reviewed(:
