The Best is yet to Come, Chapter 6: Secret's out
Disclaimer: see previous chapters...
A/N: Dark Katsumi, thank you for your suggestions. Just to clear up what you where confused about, in part 2 of the scenes you where talking about there is a typo that I just noticed. (I forgot to finish Kevin's line and instead mixed it with Lucy's.) Also In part 2 Eric wasn't even present. I hope that clears up any questions, and otherwise please R/R.
Lucy lay asleep on the couch, her hand protectively over her stomach. Kevin walked over to Lucy and kissed her. "Luce," he whispered into her ear,
"Wake up, I have a surprise for you." The room was silent for a moment then all of a sudden Lucy sat up and kissed him on the nose.
" Mr. Kinkirk, this better be good," she said as he gave his forehead a flick.
" Trust me it is," He said wrapping his arms around Lucy, "Now come on or we'll be late." He gave her his hand and pulled her up off the couch.
" Kevin, where exactly are we going?"
" You'll see."
" Kevin, tell me! You know I don't like surprises."
He chuckled, "I'm sure you'll like this one."
"I'm going to go change, I'll be out in a minute," she said in a frazzled voice.
Women, Kevin thought to himself as he waited very impatiently for Lucy to change.
"Ready," Lucy said as she stepped out of the bathroom in a quite ravishing dress. Aqua-green with a cow neck and spaghetti straps which showed off her lovely figure. She wore a silver locket around her neck, which Kevin had given her for her birthday. Inside in held a picture of the two of them on their wedding day.
" You look beautiful," Kevin said taking her hand.
" Thank you," she replied and with that they left.
When they got out of the car it took a moment for Lucy to realize where they were. She turned to Kevin, "Are we?"
Kevin nodded, "Yes Luce, this is where I proposed." Kevin kissed her and they walked inside.
They walked down the hotels elegant hallways to a door which said reserved. He opened the door, "After you." Lucy smiled and walked in.
"Luce," Simon said running over to Lucy to hug her.
Lucy hugged Simon and turned to Kevin, "Kevin, what's this for?"
" You know," he whispered into her ear.
She kissed him, "Thank you."
" So what do you say we eat?" Mary asked eagerly.
They all sat down to a wonderful dinner, Lucy's favorite, of Spaghetti and Red Sauce with Italian bread and meatballs.
"Lucy and I have an announcement to make," Kevin said getting everyone's attention. He turned to Lucy, "Well Lucy and I..."
" What Kevin is trying to say is that Kevin and I are going to have a baby."
" Congratulations," Everyone chorused.
" I don't mean to take away Lucy's moment, but Sarah and I have an announcement too," Matt started. Sarah shook her head telling Matt she didn't want him to tell anybody but he went on anyway, " Well, Sarah and I are going to have another baby."
" Two Grandbabies!" Annie said happily.
" Three," Mary said patting her stomach.
Annie nodded, "Yes, three."
" Congratulations to you both," Eric said.
"While we're telling everyone our news, I guess Brianna and I should tell you our new too."
" Brianna's pregnant?" Annie asked surprised.
Simon shook his head, "Well Brianna and I, well..."
" We're engaged."
" That's wonderful," Annie said, she turned to Brianna and kissed her on the cheek, "Welcome to the family."
Brianna nodded, "Thanks."
Annie turned to Lucy, "So how far along are you?"
" I don't know, I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow to find out. But the ER doctor at the hospital says he would think I'm about 3 weeks to 4 weeks along."
"Tell me when you find anything out, ok?"
" Sure," she said walking over to Kevin.
Annie turned to Sarah, "So do you know how far along you are?"
" 6 weeks."
" Only," she paused for a moment, "34 weeks to go."
Sarah laughed, "Yeah, I know."
" So how are you feeling?"
" Pregnant."
" I would say that's good, since you are. But I know that's not good in your case." She took her hand, "Feel better."
" Thanks Annie," she said walking.
As it got later the "party" simmered down and everyone began to go home.
Lucy walked over to Annie, "Kevin and I are leaving because I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow morning. You and everyone else can stay if you like."
" I don't know about everyone else, but I know we're going to go home, It's getting late."
" Ok, see you in the morning." And with that both families left.
Lucy and Kevin awoke early the next morning so they could go to Lucy's doctor's appointment.
" Kevin, hurry up we're going to be late," Lucy yelled to Kevin who was still in he shower.
" I'll be a minute."
" That's what you said 5 minutes ago, look I'll meet you in the car," she said leaving the apartment.
It was not until 10 minutes after Lucy left when Kevin was ready to Leave.
" Ready?" Lucy asked.
" Yep."
"Then Let's go."
Kevin and Lucy arrived at the doctor's office and sat themselves in the waiting area. Not long after did the nurse call them back to a room.
" The doctor will be with you shortly," the nurse said closing the door.
" You ok?" Kevin questioned.
Lucy nodded.
" Good Morning Mr. And Mrs. Kinkirk," the doctor said entering the room.
"Good morning," Kevin and Lucy replied in corrosion.
" So how are you feeling?" the doctor questioned.
" Miserable, does the morning sickness ever go away?"
" Normally by the second trimester. But some women have it throughout the whole pregnancy."
Lucy sighed, "So that's what I have to look forward to."
" I'm afraid so."
"So what do you say we find out how far along you are and your due date."
" Sounds good to me."
The doctor and Lucy talked for a while trying to find out her due date.
The doctor looked at his computer, "Well according to my calculations your due-date is, September 26th."
Lucy was quite for a moment and then it hit her. I'm going to be a mother.
