"Mrs. Sammler, Mr. Sammler, please come in." The doctor said as they entered the room. He looked at his chart. "So I see your three months pregnant?" The doctor asked Lily.

"Yes." She said holding Rick's hand.

"Ok, from what it says here. You just came to have an ultra sound. Is that correct?" He asked.

"Yes, we just want to make sure they baby is healthy and everything." Lily said.

"So, you know you're only having one baby?" the doctor asked.

"Well no… we just assumed." Lily said.

"If there's one thing I've learned in this business is to never assume anything." The doctor said as he put the folder down. "If you'll follow me through here, we'll get started." He said as they followed him to the examine room.

"We could have more that one child?" Rick asked worried.

"I guess, oh I hope not." She said nervously.

"Mrs. Sammler, if you would please get ready." The doctor said as he started to get ready.

"Anyone home?" Eli asked as he entered the house.

"It's strangely quite." Grace said.

"Dad, Lily?" Jessie screamed.

"They're not here guys." Zoe said as she showed them the note on the table.

Eli took it and read it out load. "We had an appointment to get an ultrasound done. We will be back a little before five. Jack and Karen are coming over and we are having a family meeting when we get back. So Eli, Grace, Zoe and Jessie be there! And we mean it this time."

"So we're going to know if we're having a brother or a sister." Jessie said smiling.

"It better be a brother." Eli said.

"It better only be one child." Zoe said everyone looked at her.

"What?" Grace asked shocked.

"I'm just saying Mom could have more than one child." Zoe said.

"God, I hope not." Jessie said.

"None of us what that." Grace said and then she thought of something. "Eli let me see that note." He handed it to her. "Oh no…" She started to say.

"What's wrong?" Eli asked.

"My dad is going to be here when we tell them. Eli, he's going to kill you." Grace said.

Zoe laughed. "Well I for one want a front row seat to this."

"Jake, wouldn't hurt me would he?" Eli asked.

"It was nice knowing you brother." Jessie said patting him on the back.

"What could she possibly want?" Jake asked Tiffany.

"Maybe she has some good news about Grace's recovery." Tiffany offered.

"If that was it then Faith would be telling us that and she wouldn't have said it was about Eli and Grace." Jake said.

"Ok then what so you think it is about? The baby maybe?" Tiffany asked.

"No it's not about the baby and what ever it is it's bad, or she wouldn't want me over there." Jake said.

"Well what could possibly be wrong with Grace and Eli?" She asked.

"I don't know but if he did anything to her, he's dead." Jake said.

"So what's going with your kids?" Henry asked Karen as she started to get ready to go.

"I think Eli and Grace are going to tell Rick and Lily that they are dating." Karen said.

"Aren't they brother and sister?" Henry asked confused.

"Oh no, they're step-brother and sister." Karen said.

"Ok, I get it. I think. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?" Henry asked.

"A good thing for them but not so good for Rick, Lily and Jake. They aren't going to see the good things about this." Karen said.

"And you do?" He asked shocked.

"I have no choice." She said smiling.

"So do we want to find out the gender of this child or children?" The doctor asked as he put gel on Lily's stomach.

"No." Lily said.

"Yes." Rick said.

He laughed. "Oh I see, so the father wants to but the mother doesn't?" He asked.

"Exactly." Lily said.

"Ok well then we wouldn't find out. Now let's see what's going on in your stomach." The doctor said as he turned on the screen.

"So doctor how does the baby look?" Lily asked.

"He looks very well…" The doctor started to say.

Rick smiled.

Lily looked at him mad.

"Sorry I mean she…"

Lily again looked at him furious.

"I'm sorry I mean they…."

"They?" Lily asked.

"I mean. Ok let's just say baby." He said and Lily smiled. "Let me turn on the sound so you can hear "baby" heart beat." He said as he turned on the sound.

Lily and Rick started to hear a faint heartbeat.

"That's good." The doctor said smiling.

All the sudden Lily and Rick started to hear another faint heart beat.

Lily looked at the doctor. "How many babies does the word "baby" mean to you?" She asked.
