No One's POV
The next few months passed quickly for both couples. Matt and Miranda both busy in school and their extra-curricular activities, Miranda with choir practices and Matt with sports. Lizzie was doing quite well in her home-schooling and she was growing more pregnant every day, while Gordo had a few more detentions before Ms. Ungermeyer finally let him off. Kate continued to spread rumors around, but had learned her lesson and hadn't said anything to his face since then. Lizzie's doctor's appointments had been going well and the babies were growing healthily. Sam and Jo, and Roberta and Howard continued to support the couple and help them finance whatever they needed, while still trying to keep a distance as to teach them responsibility.
The mothers had been planning a baby shower for Lizzie and they had invited friends and family from around the country. Miranda and Isabella Sanchez were coming along with Melina Bianco. Lizzie's Gammy McGuire would be attending along with Lizzie's Aunt Missy, who was coming in from Detroit. Her Aunt Amy was coming in from Virginia with her cousins Kayla and Kelly. Both of Gordo's grandmothers were coming in and so was his Aunt Lori. The party was scheduled for the Saturday after Thangsgiving and all Lizzie knew was that the relatives were coming in for Thanksgiving weekend.
Lizzie's POV
My mom continued home-schooling me right up until Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving morning came and I woke up feeling pretty gross and I had to run to the bathroom before I was sick. Even though most of my morning sickness had gone away a couple of weeks ago, I occasionally woke up sick. I crawled back into bed and Gordo put his arm around me and pulled me closer.
"Good morning, sweetheart," Gordo said, giving me a kiss on the forehead.
"'Morning," I whispered putting my head on his chest.
"What time is it?"
"It's 9:30," I answered him, "Maybe we should get up and help with preparations for dinner…there's a lot of people coming over today."
"Do we have to move? I'm comfortable," Gordo said, holding me tighter.
"All are relatives will be here soon, so we need to help our mothers."
"Fine, let's go," Gordo answered, kissing me, before rolling out of bed.
No One's POV
Gordo, Matt and Mr. Gordon, Mr. Sanchez and Mr. McGuire spent the morning getting ready for and then, watching the football games. This left the women in the kitchen. Lizzie did the smallest work, setting the table and cutting up the vegetables. At around 12:00, many of the relatives arrived from the hotels where they were staying. Many of the relatives, though they knew, were surprised about how far along Lizzie was. Soon, dinner was starting.
Everyone was sitting outside around a long table. There were twenty of them and dinner was going well. Until, Gordo's Grandma Gordon, started to speak.
"So, young man, now that you have ruined both of your lives, what exactly do you plan on doing with your life?"
Everyone at the table looked at her, in shock that such a topic would be brought up at the dinner table. Gordo composed himself before answering.
"Gram, I don't think I ruined my life. This is just another obstacle on the road of life that we need to work through. Lizzie and I are going to finish school and we plan on getting married next spring after the babies are born."
"Howard, how can you let this happen? They are too young to have these babies. I know you, Roberta and I realize how you can stand by and watch them."
"Mother, you need to stay out of this. Leave Roberta alone also. You don't know what you are talking about. We have discussed all of this among us. It is all worked out," Howard answered her.
The rest of dinner was a tense experience. The families sat around in silence, eating their turkey. After dinner, Howard and Roberta took Grandma Gordon aside and spoke to her. Everyone let Lizzie take a nap and the women spent the afternoon in the kitchen and the men went back to watching the football games.
When Grandma Gordon came back out, she grabbed her stuff, apologized to Jo and thanked her for a wonderful dinner, adding that she would be leaving in the morning and would not be able to attend the baby shower. She barely glanced at her grandson as she walked out to the cab.
Once Lizzie woke up from her nap, she was surprised to see that most every one of the relatives had gone back to their hotels.. Gordo came downstairs, just as Lizzie was coming out of the bathroom.
"Hi sweetie, I'm so sorry about my grandmother. She's never been so publicly vicious before."
"Don't worry about it. I expected it from one of the relatives," she leaned in to kiss Gordo and then, took his hand, dragging him up the stairs.
When they got back upstairs, they sat down in the living room, with the rest of their families and the Sanchezes. They spent the evening watching television and talking. They also spent Friday just hanging around the house, with relatives dropping in and out during the day. Soon it was Saturday…
