Week 12

Everyone in the station knew Alex was pregnant now. She was officially taken off as a firefighter, but she could still be a paramedic for awhile, as long as she wasn't put in terribly dangerous situations. Everyone was supportive over the pregnancy if not way too over protective over her.

Alex looked at the slip of paper in her hand with the address on it and walked up the steps. She had no idea why she was meeting DK at his mother's house other than all his brothers and sisters and nieces and nephews were there for Sunday dinner. DK wanted her there. She rang the doorbell.

"I have it!" DK yelled and ran to the door. He smiled when he saw her, "Thank god you're here. They're driving me nuts."

"Sorry I'm late. My pants don't fit anymore." She weakly, "My bump is starting to pop out." DK put his hand on her stomach and felt a very small bump.

"Its beautiful. " he winked, "Come meet everyone." DK led her into a large living room that was filled with at least a dozen people, "Everyone, this is Alex and this bump is my baby."

"Hi!" Everyone cried out. Alex smiled weakly.

"Let me introduce you to everyone." DK said. "That's my oldest brother Padric and his wife Heather and those three are their kids. Thomas, Jaime, and Anja."

"Hello." Alex smiled shyly.

"That's my other brother Kevin and his wife Kelsey." DK said, "Those three little ones are Kevin Jr., Karson, and Kristopher. They have this crappy K theme going."

"Hey." Kevin chuckled. "None of their middle names start with a K."

"Got no clan members then." DK chuckled, "That is my little sister Abby and her husband Sam. Those two are Jessica and David their kids."

"Hi." Alex said softly. God, there were so many here.

"And this is Kaitlin my youngest sister and her son, Riley." DK said.

"And I'm mother." Joanne smiled walking up to Alex. "Don't mind al the grandchildren. They will go out back and play soon. As you can see I only have two granddaughters."

"Maybe this one will be one." Alex smiled weakly, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Ma'am." Soon, all the kids were outside and the men were out barbecuing. Alex was alone with all the wives.

"So, Alex." Abby smiled at her, "What do you see in my brother?"

"They're not in a relationship, Ab." Heather said and then looked at Alex, "What are you going to do when the baby comes? Is the baby living with you or him? Visitations?" Alex bit her lip.

"I don't know. We haven't talked about it." She asked.

"Oh!" Katie exclaimed, "Maybe they can be like Ross and Rachel. They can live each other, fall for each other, but don't admit that they love each other." Joanne laughed.

"Knock it off, Girls." She patted Alex's hand, "Don't mind them. They're just playing with you." Alex smiled. "You know how sisters can be." Alex nodded.

"Yeah. I have a gay brother." She chuckled. Joanne smiled at Alex. She was fitting in perfectly. DK walked into the living room.

"Everything is being dished out." He said.

"Great!" The girls cried. DK held Alex back.

"Are you having a good time?" He asked her. She shrugged.

"It's a little uncomfortable, but I guess I need got get used to it huh?" Alex asked.

"I want this baby to have the best family." DK said, "We can go to a family get together with your family if you want." Alex smiled weakly.

"Your family seems really close, DK." She said.

"We are." He said watching her, "Why do you look like that?" Alex shook her head.

"I don't know. I feel like the black sheep here. We're having a baby and we're not even together." She said.

"I explained that to all of them." He said. Alex nodded.

"I know that, but it's still weird for me." Alex admitted. "I always thought I would be married before I had children. Forgive me for being so weirded out." DK sighed softly.

"I'm sorry." He said. Alex smiled.

"Don't be." She said, "I like where we are. I like being friends with you and I like being close to you." She took his hand, "Come on. "Let's go eat." DK smiled walking her out to the porch. It was still so weird for the two of them. It probably wouldn't feel right until DK saw the baby in Alex's arms.

Week 14

He couldn't get Alex out of his head. He was thinking about her twenty-four-seven. Why? It's not like he was falling in love with her. Maybe it was because she was pregnant with his child. If she lived closer, he wouldn't have a problem with it. He rolled over in bed and dialed Alex's phone number.

"Hello?" Alex mumbled. DK smiled at the sound of her voice.

"I've been thinking about something." DK said.

"At three in the morning?" Alex yawned sitting up.

"Yeah." DK said, "I think my sisters had the right idea."

"About what?" she asked rubbing her eyes.

"Us living together." He said. Alex opened her eyes in shock. Living together? With DK? A boy?

"Come again…." She said.

"They said we could do the Ross and Rachel thing. We are having a baby together and you do have those extra rooms." DK said.

"I know, but won't I be cramping your style?" Alex asked, "You know when you bring girls home?" DK frowned.

"You think I sleep with other women?" DK asked.

"Well, I don't know…You said you don't want anything serious with me so I figured you were keeping your options open." She said. DK sighed running his hands over his face.

"My options are closed, Alex. I'm not looking for anyone else." He said.

"What does that mean?" Alex asked. DK sighed.

"I don't know…I just…Just because I don't want something extremely serious it doesn't mean I want something flimsy with you." He said. Alex couldn't help but to laugh nervously.

"So…I mean…Do you….God." She smiled slightly.

"I want to be there for you and the baby, Alex." He said.

"And you will be." Alex said, "Do…D-Do you want to move in with me? Y-You can have your own r-room…."

"I think it would be best if I lived with you." DK said, "Plus I could get booty whenever I wanted to." Alex laughed loudly.

"I knew there was some other reason for this." Alex smiled, "To be honest with you, I would feel more comfortable having you here with me."

"Then I'll move in." DK said. "I've never lived with a girl."

"Me either…I mean, a man…" Alex said. "You won't miss anything this way."

"That's the plan." DK said. "Well…Um…I will let you get back to sleep. I will see you in the morning okay?" Alex nodded.

"All right." Alex said, "See you."

Alex tucked her hair behind her ear as she opened the door. DK stood there with a box in his hand.

"Hey." DK smiled.

"Hey." Alex said standing there nervously.

"Can I come in? This is heavy." DK said. Alex smiled.

"Oh sorry." She stepped aside and DK walked in. He looked at her.

"Are you okay with this, Alex?" He asked. Alex nodded.

"Yeah...Just a little nervous." She said. DK reached out and took her hand. He kissed it softly.

"Me too, but we can do this…for the baby." He said. She nodded.

"For the baby." Alex whispered. This would be hard for her. She knew she would start developing deeper feelings for DK. Kim warned her she would. Kim would utterly flip when she hears that DK moved in, but for right now, Alex didn't care.
