Christams was in a week and Ray was working more shifts and seeing less of Lily. Lily
was at Audrey's house wrapping gifts. Lily had just finished wrapping Robbie's gift.
She bought him a poster that said "Question Everything."
A-Hey Lil are you hungry?
L-When am I ever not?
A-Let's go get some christmas cookie's.
The girls got up and walked to the kitchen.
A-So, Lily have you and Ray decided on baby names?
L-Well kinda, I like Jake and Katie but he likes Jake and Alexis, so if I have a girl we
can't even agree on a name.
They laughed
L-So what did you get Travis for christmas?
A-A book of quotes.
L-Cool.
A-What did you get Ray?
L-A picture.
Audrey gave Lily a quizical look.
A-Way to be the queen of detail Lil.
L-Well I better go it's getting late.
A-Kay! We still on for shopping tommorow?
L-Yeah.
Lily grabbed her coat and walked out the door. It was lightly snowing as she walked to
the old studio. she was thinking about her gift to Ray. She had found a picture frame
that was perfect for his gift.
The frame held four pictures, but right now Lily only included three.
The frame said.....We've been through everyhting.... Then there was a place for a
picture. She put a picture of them when they were little. ..... We've been through
thick and thin...... It was a picture of her guitar teacher and Veronica spliced together..... No matter
how hard things get.... It was a picture of Lily right now with her big stomach.......You will always
be there..... the last hole was empty, Lily was going to put a picture of there baby there after it
was born.
Lily arrved at the station to see that the lights were on.
L(talking to herself)-Ray must be home.
She opened the door.
L-Hello??
R-In here Lil.
Lily walked around the corner. Her face lit up. Ray had put uo a small-skimpy Christmas tree.
L-Thanks Ray.
R-Well it couldn't be Christmas without a tree.
L-yeah
They sat and looked at the tree for awhile and then wen't to bed.

Ray could feel someone shaking him.
L-Ray, Ray, get up!
R(yawning)-Lily what's wrong?
L-I think i'm having contractions!
R-What?! Your not due for another month!
Lily put her hand on her stomach.
L-Ray, that is all true but i'm having the baby now!
Ray picked up the phone and called Audrey's house, while Lily got dressed.
