The Brotherhood Boarding House-

Kurt and Wanda had the place all to themselves as the other members of the Brotherhood were out, doing their own things. Todd and Felicia were looking for flowers for the wedding. It was funny actually, for a maid of honour Wanda was doing precious little planning for the upcoming wedding. Anyway, Lance and Typhoid were also out with them as Felicia had press-ganged them into helping. Pietro was out with Crystal and Fred kindly left the house to give Wanda and Kurt some space.

Kurt stroked Wanda's head, which was laid on his lap.

'Vanda?'

'Yes?'

'You know zis big secret zat you're keeping?'

'What about it?'

'Vhen am I going to be let in on it? I am your boyfriend you know. If anyzhing, I should be ze first vun to know.'

'Don't worry, Fuzzy.' Wanda replied as she looked up and ruffled Kurt's hair. 'I'll tell you all in good time.'

Kurt just shrugged and let it go for the moment.

Later-

The other members of the Brotherhood had finished whatever they had to do and were sitting in the living room waiting for Wanda to reveal her big secret. TJ. Rogue and Kitty were there as well.

'Well what's the big secret, Wanda?' The ever-impatient Pietro asked. 'Some people have other stuff to attend to, you know.'

'Oh hush up and sit down.' Crystal told her boyfriend. 'The waiting will only make the secret seem better.'

'She's only doing this for dramatic affect, anyway.' Pietro muttered. Wanda shot a glare at him and he sat down without another word.

'Vell everybody's here zat needs to be, liebe.' Kurt said. 'Are you going to tell us what the big secret is or vhat?'

'Okay then.' Wanda sighed. 'Now's as good a time as any...'

Wanda took a deep breath before continuing.

'I...'

Everybody held their breath as they waited for Wanda to finish her sentence.

'I'm...'

Everybody's knuckles started to turn white from gripping arm rests.

'I'm... going to get a drink.'

Everybody slumped back in their seats and muttered angrily at Wanda's stalling.

After she had poured herself a glass of water, Wanda walked back in and sat down. She took a sip of water and licked her lips nervously before continuing.

'I'm... pregnant.'

Wanda looked around at her assembled friends and family. They all looked unusually calm, almost as if her revelation hadn't yet sunk in.

'Well somebody say something.' She said.

'Y-you're pregnant?' Kurt squeaked.

'Uh-huh.' Wanda replied. 'Surprise?'

'Excuse me for a moment.' Kurt said as he got up from his seat and walked into the kitchen. The others looked back at Wanda and heard a thump from the kitchen. Kitty ran over and peered inside.

'Kurt's like, passed out on the floor.' She said.

Everybody then looked at Pietro to see his reaction he also seemed awfully calm, apart from the fact that his eyebrow was twitching.

'Pie, are you alright?' Crystal asked concernedly.

'Of course I'm alright.' Pietro said through clenched teeth. 'I've just found out that my sister is pregnant. Just excuse me for a moment...'

Everybody held their breath as they expected Pietro to go into the kitchen and beat up Kurt for besmirching his sister. Fortunately, he started to climb up the stairs. A door shutting was heard followed by lots of muffled cursing.

'Well he seemed to take it well.' Felicia said.

'Ah think we'd better hide all pointy objects yah got in the house.' Rogue added. 'Y'know, just fer safety's sake.'

After Kurt had come around and Pietro had calmed down-

The tense atmosphere after Wanda's revelation had dissipated. This was mostly due to the fact that a discussion about a baby shower had started. Rather predictably, Kitty was the one that started it.

While the girls were talking baby clothes and whatnot, the guys were talking with Kurt, giving him pats on the back and what have you.

'Way to go, yo.' Todd said. 'I should be really jealous of you but... I'm not.'

'That wouldn't happen to have anything to do with the fact that you're getting married soon, right?' Lance asked with a smirk.

'I dunno what you're so cocky about.' Todd replied. 'You've still got to do your best man's speech, yo.'

'Oh crap, I completely forgot.' Lance muttered. 'Dammit!'

While Lance went off to plan his best man's speech, the guys continued to congratulate Kurt.

Back with Wand and the girls, the gothic mutant was barely keeping her temper while Kitty and Crystal blathered on about baby clothes, names, whether it would be a boy or a girl, and many other baby-related things.

'Umm, Wanda, is everythin' alraght?' Rogue asked. 'Yah look kinda pissed.'

'Oh I'm just peachy.' Wanda sarcastically replied. 'I'm only keeping my emotions in check because I don't know whether it'll harm the baby or not.'

'Well good on yah.' Rogue continued. 'Yah lucky tah have a guy lahke Kurt, ah'm sure that he'll be a great father.'

'Unlike mine.' Wanda muttered. 'At least Kurt'll give a crap about his kids.'

'Ah think yah forgettin' Mystique.' Rogue added. 'It's not lahke she's been a dotin' mother tah me an' Kurt.'

'Talk about the grandparents form Hell.' Wanda said, her lips forming a small smile.

'What about Pietro?' Rogue asked. 'Do yah think he'd be a good uncle?'

'He'd damn well better be.' Wanda replied. 'When he stops trying to kill Kurt.'

'Ah didn't even know yah had shotgun.' Rogue said.

'Oh, that's Typhoid's.' Wanda replied. 'Go figure.'

Later that night-

Kurt and Wanda were laying bed. Kurt had his arms around Wanda protectively.

'I can't believe it.' He said. 'I'm going to be a father.'

'Believe it, Fuzzy.' Wanda replied. 'It's all downhill form here, diaper changing, projectile vomiting, the whole lot.'

'I'm sure it cant be all zat bad.' Kurt said. 'Zhere's good zhings to be had viz a baby around here.'

'Sleepless nights...' Wanda continued.

'I wonder whether it'll be a boy or a girl.' Kurt wondered out loud.

'It's a girl.' Wanda replied. 'Trust me, woman's intuition.'

'But vhat vill ve name it?'

'TJ, ya goof.' Wanda replied, playfully swatted Kurt on the arm. 'It only seems natural, seeing that she'll be there for the birth... Hopefully.'

'How exactly is it zat two TJ's can exist in ze same space wizout screwing up ze space-time continuum?' Kurt asked.

'You've been watching too much Back to the Future.' Wanda said as he shook her head and snuggled closer to Kurt.

'Say g'night Daddy Wagner...' She said.

'Say goodnight Muzzer Vagner...' Kurt replied.

Wanda then closed her eyes and settled down to go to sleep. After a minute or two, her eyes snapped open again.

'Omigod I'm gonna get fat!'
