Ana's POV:
While Kate is upstairs changing I decide to call Elliot. No one is going to stress my best friend even if he is my brother in law. I know I probably should not get involved but fuck it. I am pregnant and my hormones are on a rampage right now, I have a free pass. I get my phone and dial his cellphone number.

"Hey Ana! Ummm whats up?" I can tell he is surprised to hear from me but did he expect anything else? Kate and I tell each other everything. "Don't 'Hey Ana' me Elliot Grey! How dare you blatantly lie and hurt Kate like that? Are you trying to sabatoge the wedding? Do you not love her?" I know I kinda went off the deep end but I have to get to the bottom of this. "Of course not Ana! I love Kate with all my heart and I can't wait to marry her."
"Then why lie to her Elliot? You know how she feels about secrets and lies." I decide that the calm approach will work better so I talk to him in my sweet soft voice. I hear him sigh on the other end clearly frustrated. "Okay the truth is... I have been trying to plan a weekend for Kate and I. We need time to reconnect and relax before the wedding and baby showers. I figured I could meet up with Christian while you guys were at Escala so he could help me. Please don't tell Kate I know she's mad now but I've been working so hard on this Ana I'm begging you."
As much as I want to stay mad at him for my best friend I can't. What he is doing for her is really sweet and thoughful. I just wish he was better at keeping it a secret. I groan inwardly to myself knowing I'm about to be on his side. "Fine but this weekend has to be perfect and she better cry tears of joy." I can practically here his smile on the other end of the phone. "Thank you Ana so much. I promise you it'll be perfect. Oh by the way Mia is coming over I told her about the pregnancy and she really wants to spend more time with Kate."
"That's perfectly fine we always have room for another Grey woman," I hear Kate coming down the stairs. "Kate's coming bye." With that I hang up and turn around. Kate has thrown her hair up in a bun and put on her oversized robe. "Who were you on the phone with," she ask as she sits in the massage chair and pops a grape in her mouth. "That was umm... Elliot." She instantly rolls her eyes as she eats some more grapes. "He was just calling to let me know Mia was on her way over because she wants to spend time with you and she also knows you're pregnant."
"Oh okay. I've been meaning to hang out with her it's just I've been so busy. I hope she doesn't think I'm going to be this sister law from hell." I laugh because Kate has a "like me or not I dont give a fuck either way attitude" so its refreshing to see this side of her. Just then we hear the elevator ding and heels clicking our way.
"Hey guys! I hope I'm not crshing but Elliot just told me the good news Kate!" Mia runs over and gives Kate a hug and from the look on Kate's face it was a very tight hug.
Kate's POV:
"Thanks Mia and youre not crashing at all you are more than welcome to hang out with us and help us plan." I am rewarded with the biggest grin I have ever seen. You would have thought I told her she's getting a brand new Audi. "I would love to help in anyway I can. I do feel over dressed though," she chuckles. Me and Ana look at each other realizing that we ate only in robes and start laughing. "There's an extra in the guest room Mia just check the closet," Ana say pointing in the direction of the room. "Cool I'll be back in few." Mia begins waking away but stops and turns around. "Oh I almost forgot. Elliot wanted me to tell you that he loves you Kate." I instantly roll my eyes amd Mia sees I'm irritated. "I don't know what he did but knowing El he probably deserves the silent treatment," she say before walking away again.
...
After our massages and pedicures we finally decide to do what was initially planned.
"Okay so as you both know we moved the wedding up but I made sure it did not fall on the same week as your baby shower Ana."
"Good because I'm gonna need a few days to recover from that alone," Ana giggles while rubbing her swollen belly.
"So Elliot and I agreed on the colors classic white and black but my accent color to be gold. What do you guys think?"
Mia is the first to speak, "I think it will look amazing it puts a twist on something classic." Ana nods her head in agreement while eating a cookie.
"I want like your dresses to be black with gold accessories and accents but I am allowing every bridesmaid to choose their own style for the top part of the dress so you guys feel more comfortable. We cam do that next weekemd when we go in to choose my gown and reception dress."
We continue to talk about other details when my phone dings... Its Elliot. I groan out of irritation and slam my phone onto the couch. "Im guessing that's my brother," Mia says with a smirk. "Yeah what have it away?" She gets her glad of wine and takes a sip. " Whenever you and El are mad at each other everything he does or anything that's closely related to him you either roll your eyes or grosn like you just did. So what's wrong?" I sit taken aback for a moment, Mia was right I always do those things. I can't help it he just makes me so... Uggggghh!
"Mia I dont want you to get in the middle he is your brother."
"Yes he is my brother but if he's wrong he's wrong. Besides he knows he fucked up if I had to deliver the "I love you" message. Every guy does it at least once in a serious relationship."
Ana sits up and adds to the conversation. "That is very true I remember this one time I was livid at Christian. I was so mad I packed him up a suit case and asked Gail to set up the guest room for him. When he came home zi went diem to the kitchen and Taylor was there and he said ' wanted me to tell you he loves you and begs you to forgive him.'"
Mia and I exchange looks before I ask Ana. "Damn what did he do?"
"We were going over the plans for the new house and he said he is going to put a gym in the house so we can both use it. I don't know what the fuck he was thinking telling a pregnant woman this and I lost it." I can't help but explode in laughter and Mia joins in. "Okay enough about me back to you Kitkat."
I tell Mia everything and by the end she's completely om my side. "Men are idiots especially Elliot he's like their leader. But ik my brother loves you very much just talk to him when you're ready."
"Thanks Mia I will but until then he can stay in the dog house."
