Ireland was now six years old. They had a huge celebration despite everything that was going on. Sure, Randi and Dave had increased security around the house and clinic, but they had every right to do so. But right now it was Valentine's day.
Randi's grandmother took the girls for the night. It was very rare that Dave and Randi were home alone. Dave knew he'd make the best of it. He had the best night plan, a candle lit dinner, and he'd give her her diamond bracelet, and then sex. A whole lot of sex. He straightened his tie as he looked in the mirror.
"I look damn good." He said. Randi chuckled from the bathroom.
"I bet you do." She said.
"Don't come down until I tell you to!" Dave bolted out of the bedroom and downstairs to the den. He threw another log onto the roaring fire in the fireplace. He lit the candles on the table and beamed brightly, "All right, Mrs. Malucci. You may come down."
"Good. I'm starved." Randi said. She walked into the living room and stole Dave's breath away. Her new red dress clung to every curve of her body and left nothing to the imagination.
"Wow." Dave smiled. She giggled softly.
"Yeah wow. You look hot." Randi said and looked at the table, "Oh Dave…This is perfect." He nodded as he led her over to the table.
"Of course it's perfect. Its Valentine's Day and we're alone."
"And you want to get laid." Randi chuckled as she sat down. Dave nodded in agreement.
"Well yeah." He said opening up the trays of food. The smell of the perfectly cooked steak filled their noses. In the bowls were filled with steamed carrots and peas. Randi's mouth watered.
"This is totally great!" She clapped her hands.
"Eat up then." Dave said cutting into the meat. Randi nodded and popped some carrots into her mouth; "Do you want your present?"
"Oh yes. Please." She held out her hands. Dave laughed softly and handed her the velvet box.
"Enjoy." Dave smiled. Randi opened the box and her eyes widened at the diamond bracelet.
"Oh my god." She pulled it out of the box and slid it around her slender wrist. The diamond sparkled against the glow of the fire.
"Do you like it?" He asked her. She nodded.
"It's gorgeous." Randi grinned brightly. Dave smiled.
"Where's mine?" He asked her.
"Where's your what?" Randi asked. Dave chuckled.
"My gift." He said. Randi bit her lip and pulled out a box.
"Are you sure that you want it?" She asked him.
"I gave you a diamond bracelet. Yes, I want my gift." Dave said.
"All right." Randi slowly handed him his small box.
"Is it a bomb?" He asked her. Randi shrugged with small shrug. "All right. Let's see what we've got here." Dave took off the white lid of the box and looked in. His heart stopped beating in his chest. He was holding a pregnancy test. A positive pregnancy test. His eyes widened as he looked at his wife; "You're…pregnant?" A nervous smile came across Randi's face.
"Yeah I am. I've known for a couple of days." She said, "I thought this would be a nice Valentine's Day gift." Dave nodded.
"Yes…" He looked back at the pregnancy test. His eyes were filling with tears. "It's the most perfect gift."
"Are you sure?" Randi whispered. A tear slid down Dave's cheek.
"I'm going to be a dad again." He smiled brightly. "I'm going to be a frigging dad again!!!" Randi laughed with relief.
"Maybe it'll be a boy this time." She said watching the joy in his eyes.
"Oh you bet it's going to be a boy!" Dave jumped up ad gathered her into his arms. He hugged her tightly, "When are you due?"
"I don't know. I'm figuring around late September or early October." Randi said, "but I don't know. I have an appointment in a couple of weeks." Dave kissed Randi's cheek.
"Looks like we'll need to get Hannah back here." Dave said.
"Yeah." She smiled, "Maybe I don't need to go to Coburn this time. If we get Hannah again and use your clinic…"
"We'll see." Dave smiled brightly. He exhaled, "Another baby." Dave couldn't believe it. This was the best Valentine's Day present Dave had ever received, but with all the pregnancies, Randi had a way of surprising him with them.

Week 8
The past two weeks had been utterly amazing for Dave. The fact that he was going to be a dad again made it easier for him to get up every single morning. He sat in the bed trying to read, but he couldn't concentrate. He looked over at his wife.
"Can I give you an ultrasound?" he asked her. Randi looked up from her book.
"What?" She looked at him oddly.
"Let's go to the clinic and run an ultrasound." He said, "I want to see the baby." Randi smiled softly and nodded.
"All right." She dog eared the page and got out of the bed. Dave le his wife outside and to the clinic.
"Get ready in room one. I'll get the machine." He said flicking the lights on. Randi nodded and ran to the room. Dave smiled to his self. This would be great. He was excited to see the baby.
"Dr. Malucci, will you be able to figure out my exact due date?" Randi asked him as he pushed the machine into the room.
"Not exact, but an estimated due date." He said.
"Good." Randi rested on the table grinning from ear to ear.
"Let's see what we have here." Dave said squirting the jelly onto her belly. Randi giggled softly.
"Thank you for doing this." Randi said to her husband.
"Hey. No problem. This is exciting for me too." Dave chuckled as he got an image on the screen. He smiled softly, "There it is."
"So pretty." Randi whispered. They stared at the small baby on the screen. It was still in the early stages, but you could tell it was a baby. The leg moved around as if it was swimming,
"There's his leg." He pointed to the screen. Dave's heart pounded. That was his child. He couldn't believe this was actually happening.
"This is still amazing." Randi whispered as she stared at the screen.
"I think you're about eight weeks so your due….ah, your due date is October 12th give or take a couple of days." Dave smiled at Randi.
"Finally a baby who isn't a winter baby." Randi laughed.
"Yeah an autumn baby." He smiled, "Maybe Autumn Christine or Autumn Beth would be a nice name if it's a girl." Randi giggled softly.
"Let's hope it's a baby boy this time." Randi smiled, "We can finally have our little Harrison, but if it's a girl it'll be nice if she has my middle name."
"Yes it will." Dave said.
"I love you so much, Dave." Randi smiled at her husband.
"I love you too, but you already know that." Dave washed of Randi's stomach as the phone rang, "I'll meet you inside, all right?" Randi nodded and sat up. She buttoned her shirt back up.
"I'll make the bed nice and warm for you." She winked as she left the room.
"Oh yes. Please be naked too." He said grabbing the phone, "Hello? Malucci Family Clinic. This is Dr. Malucci speaking how may I help you?"
"So you have you own clinic now."
"Ah...Yes." Dave said, "May I help you?"
"I don't know if you can. How is Randi?"
"Who…." Dave's face fell, "Charles…."
"Glad you remember me, Dr. Malucci. It's nice to hear your voice." Charles chuckled softly.
"You're not supposed to be calling here." Dave hissed.
"It never stated in the agreement that I couldn't call. I just have to stay away from you and the girls." Charles said.
"I swear to god, if you touch Randi or the girls, I will tear your arms off of you and shove it down your throat. Randi is pregnant and she doesn't need this added stress right now. She already have had a terrible time dealing with you being released."
"Randi is pregnant again?" Charles asked Dave with a grin upon his face. Randi always looked very sexy when she was pregnant. If she was carrying his baby, she'd be even more sexy, but this would do too.
"Shut up." Dave growled, "I swear to God, Charles. You touch them…"
"I won't touch them. Not yet at least, Davie Boy." Charles smiled, "I just have one obstacle I need to get rid of first."
"Right." Dave growled. He knew Charles meant him, but he wouldn't let this an bother him, "Goodbye, Charles." He hung up the phone with a slam. He was having such a fantastic day. He had seen the new baby…No he wouldn't let Charles ruin this. He would just ignore the bastard and maybe he would go away.
