"Seth seth."
"Yes Jonathan what can I do you for today." seth said slightly annoyed
"Rumors are saying that the second lady is pregnant again with hers and the vice presidents second child is it true." the reporter asked.
"Right now the vice president has not announced that but I think we have more important things to discusses then the family of the vice president so we are clearly all done here thank you," seth said closing his file and stepping off the podium. He was walking back to his office when he saw Emily walking through the halls. "Emily hey its good to see you," he said causing Emily took look up from her phone.
"Seth hey yeah sorry I have been really busy," she said giving him a hug
"No its good a kid can do that to you. What are you doing here anyway" seth said as he continued to walk to his office Emily next to him.
"Yeah um, I had a meeting for the OCFRA and was just on my way out," she said walking into his office. "Anyway how have you been," she asked
"Good good look hey just because I have already gotten questions about it and hey won't stop. Are you pregent again?" seth said just biting the bullet.
"Umm," Emily said looking down at her feet. "Yeah, I am we found out last week your the only one who knows so far. Well, you and Kaylee so for right know can you just defer those questions till we get to telling Aarons parent and everyone." Emily said looking up at seth.
"Yeah yeah of course just let me know when," he said. 'Congratulations." he said giving her a hug.
"Thanks, you should come over sometime see ruth it's crazy how big she's gotten since you last came over," she said sitting across from Emily.
"Yeah no yeah I would love too," seth said sitting down. "Are you going to the governor's ball tonight," he asked
"Yeah yeah I just have to stay clear of reporters asking why im not drinking champagne," Emily said laughing as her phone started to ring. "Hello. Kaira hey how is everything. Oh, she is ok yeah im on my way home know ill see you soon." Emily said hanging up. "Sorry seth that was the nanny ruth is teething and won't eat anything before her nap so I got to go but I will see you tonight," she said standing up.
"No problem I will see you tonight," seth said smiling before she walked out of the room.
"Hey seth," Aaron said poking his head into Seth's office. "Was that Emily that a saw leave you office," he asked walking in
"It was sir," seth said standing up getting a death stair from Aaron. "You know I have t call you that at work," seth said sitting back down
"I know I know I just hate it," Aaron said sitting down where his wife just left.
"Congratulations by the way," seth said raising his eyebrows.
"Yeah thanks, she told you about that," Aaron said.
"I got asked at the press conference and asked her. Two kids man you guys are getting busy," seth said laughing
"Why do you make things so weird," he said smiling looking at his hands. "But yeah we found out last week it is definitely going to be crazy." Aaron said leaning back in his chair "she is worried about how young ruth is but we're both excited." Aarons said rubbing his eye. "Wait you got asked about it today," Aaron said raising his eyebrows at the press secretary
"Yeah um Jonathan from teen mogue asked," seth said looking through files
"Why do they have press credentials again," Aaron asked
"I have no idea," seth answered in a huff.
"Well I got to go, man, I'll see you tonight," Aaron said standing up walking toward the door and leaving.
When he got home Emily was already dressed in a bright yellow lace tea-length dress "you look beautiful" he said hugging her from behind.
"Thank you you should go et changed while I give her dinner before the nanny comes," Emily said putting some chicken in front of ruth in her high chair. Aaron went up stair quickly getting changed into his tux before fixing his hair and washing his face he heard Emily talking to the nanny. So he quickly grabbed his dress shoes and walked downstairs.
"Ready to go, babe," he asked grabbing her coat.
"Yeah, I'm coming." She said giving Ruth a kiss of the top of her hair before slipping into her coat. Aaron gave Ruth a kiss before walking out of the house. "So what are we gonna do if the press asked about the baby. Because they already asked Seth" Emily asked as soon as they started driving.
"Well I don't think our families should find out through the press so we can just dodge the questions and release a statement later," Aaron said grabbing Emily's hand.
"Yeah. I forgot to tell you but my aunt Katie called today she wants to come down soon. She hasn't been able to since the wedding" Emily said turning towards Aaron.
"Of course. Your aunt is the only one in your family that likes me" he said chucking a little.
"My family likes you they just don't show it vary
well," Emily said smacking Aaron's chest slightly. Emily's family is very protective so they don't let people in very easy and most of them always said that Aaron and Emily moved to fast. The other ones were very traditional and did not like the fact they had a kid before marriage so Emily's aunt was the only one who really cost and even she couldn't really because she lived in Canada.
"Ready to go," he asked as they pulled up to the White House.
"After you shore" Emily answered after the door opened. She waited on her side of the car while Aaron walked around grabbing her hand walking into the White House east room.
"Hey love birds" they heard Seth said as the walked into the room. "You guys look amazing," he said standing in front of them.
"You as well me. press secretary" Aaron said chucking " how bad are they tonight," Aaron asked pointing to the press on the side of the room.
"Not bad most of the questions are about you em," Seth said turning towered the press. "All of them so far have asked whether your pregnant or not how are gonna play it." Seth Seth asked more intrigued than concerned
"Ovoid the questions until we can tell our family's and hope none of them notice I'm not drinking," Emily says putting on a smile. Before walking into the room. Flashes instantly started going off Aaron wrapped his arm around Emily's waist as they made their way through the press.
" . What do you say about the reports about a second child on the way." one reporter yelled out.
"Right now we are focusing on Ruth and when another child come they come" Aaron answered walking into the crowd.
"Aaron Emily you guys look amazing." The president said hugging Emily before shaking Aaron's hand.
"Thank you, sir, you look great as well," Emily said standing across from Tom
"If I can ask I was asked my comment on your second child are you pregnant em," the present asked as Emily and Aaron looked at each other.
"Yes, sir we found last week sir. But we are waiting to tell our family before we tell the public." Arron says figuring they shouldn't lie to the president
"Of course congratulations you too," Tom said with a smile.
"Mr president they need you on stage," Seth said walking up from behind him.
"Of course." Tom said turning towards him " excuse me" he said before walking away.
"Know to welcome the president of the United States," the man on stage said into the microphone while the room filled with applause. A waiter walked up with a tray of champagne.
"No thank you" answered for both of them before turning his attention to the stage.
"Thank you all so much for joining us tonight. On behalf of the whole administration, we are very excited to have this ball tonight. Our country is coming up to the anniversary of the capital bombing. We as a country need to stay a strong united front I want every state to prosper and strive for greatness. So I know that my staff and the Vice Presidents are here to help with any concerns you may have. God bless you and God bless these United States of America" kirkman said whole the room Filled with Applause.
"He is so good at talking to people," Emily said resting her head on Aaron's shoulder
"He is he always has been," Aaron said kissing her on the top of her head.
"It's crazy to think if you get elected after you run you will be up there giving those speeches isn't it, " Emily said looking up of him.
"Yeah but no matter what happens you will be by my side and that is all that matters," Aaron said looking down at her smiling
"Yeah, you will," Emily said pressing her lips against his. They spent the rest of the night talking to governors and their spouses. They talked about what they needed in their states but also just talking about life and just things people talk about at parties. They said their goodbyes to the president and Seth by the time they got home Emily was asleep on Aaron's shoulder.
"Em em babe we're home," he said shaking her slightly she sat up.
"Let's get inside," she said climbing out of the car. They walked upstairs and Emily got changed while Aaron hoped in the shower. But the time Aaron got out of the shower Emily was crashed on top of the covers. He pulled the extra blanket over his shoulders when Ruth started crying. She had been teaching so she had been having trouble sleeping thought the nights.
"You hurting baby," he asked walking into her room picking her up. He walked downstairs grabbing the teathing ring from the freezer and sitting on the couch he gave Ruth the ring and rested her against his chest. She stopped crying after a while and the quite background of the news put him and Ruth to sleep.
