Holly, Heather, and Stacey sat on the floor with their eyes closed. Meditation was a wonderful thing. They needed time to relax after their long weeks at their jobs. Heather lay on the floor and began to laugh.
"I need to Fart." She said. Stacey and Holly groaned.
"Hold it in." Stacey said opening her eyes, "I don't want to smell it."
"Too late." Heather laughed.
"You're unbelievable." Holly groaned getting up, "You can't even meditate correctly."
"When I meditate my bodily functions let loose." Heather got to her feet, "I need to go to the bathroom. I'll be right back." Holly watched her sister go into the bathroom. She shook her head.
"She's unbelievable." She said.
"She's cool." Stacey wiped off her neck, "My older sisters are jack asses."
"we all have our moments." Holly winked. Stacey leaned against the wall.
"You know how you wanted Ty and I to get more serious?" She asked. Holly nodded, "Well, We're going to be extremely serious in March."
"What do you mean?" Holly asked.
"We're going to have a baby." Stacey said. Holly's eyes widened.
"OH MY GOSH!" She squealed throwing her arms around her. "Are you serious??" Stacey nodded.
"I'm due on Saint Patrick's Day." She said as Heather walked out. "I'm having a baby." Heather stared at her.
"I missed something." She said. Holly slid her arm through Stacey's.
"Our friend here is going to have a baby." Holly couldn't stop smiling. She loved hearing happy news like this.
"How's Ty taking it?" Heather asked.
"Oh, he's thrilled." Stacey was beaming.
"We need to go celebrate." Holly said, "Come on. I'm taking you shopping."
Carlos and Ty sat at the bar sipping their beers. They needed to relax after their long day at work. the girls had their meditation, but they had their drinks.
"I need tot ell you something, Carlos." Ty said.
"Okay, what?" Carlos took a gulp of his beer. "Is it bad or good?" Ty shrugged.
"I honestly don't know." He said. Carlos put his beer down and looked at his best friend.
"Tell me." He said. Ty swallowed.
"Stacey is pregnant." He said. Carlos burst out laughing.
"Are you serious?" He asked. Ty nodded, "Man, you need to learn to put your thing back into your pants."
"If Stacey wasn't so hot I wouldn't have troubles." Ty smiled, "I'm going to be a dad, Carlos."
"That's a scary thought." He said, "But if I can do it you can do it." Ty frowned deeply.
"But you couldn't do it." he said. A grin spread across Carlos' face. He was very glad it wasn't him. He and Holly were always very careful and this was why.

Holly buckled up her seat belt as Kim started to bus. There were too many pregnant around her, including her partner. It made Holly feel uncomfortable.
"And then Joey completely freaked out. I think he's happy though." Kim said. Holly looked at her. She must have missed the first half of the conversation.
"Well, I'm glad he's happy." Holly said. Kim smiled.
"me too." She said, "So, I haven't had a heart to heart with you in a couple of weeks. What have been going on with you?"
"Nothing much." Holly admitted, "Just enjoying my time with Carlos." Kim chuckled softly.
"I can't believe you're with Carlos." Kim told her, "I still can't picture the two of you together." Holly smiled weakly.
"Well, it's going very well." She told her partner. "I'm finally happy. I've been waiting a very long time for that."
"Well, That's wonderful." Kim said.
"I know we've only been seeing each other for seven months, but I think what Carlos and I have is going to get more serious." Holly said, "I could see myself marrying him."
"Wow." Kim said, "That's serious."
"I know." Holly said, "And I'm not one to step into the lightly."
"You lost your first husband. it's only natural to be hesitant." Kim said, "just take it slow as much as you need to." Holly smiled weakly. If she only knew, Holly thought.
"I think I love him though." holly said. Kim looked at her.
"What?" She watched Holly blush deeply.
"I didn't want to say anything, but I want to tell him when he's ready, I want to marry him." She said.
"you need to tell him." Kim said. Holly shook her head.
"We've been through too much and-" Kim stopped Holly.
"Exactly." She said, "he should know what you feel. you'd want to know if it was the other way around, right?"
"Well...yeah." She smiled weakly. If it was only that easy.
Holly knocked on the front door. her heart was racing. After leaving work she thought about what Kim had said. She was absolutely right. Ty opened up the door.
"Hey." He said. Holly smiled softly.
"Is Carlos home?" She asked. Ty nodded and let her in.
"Carlos, Levine is here." he called out.
"how's the packing going?" Holly looked around.
"Oh fine." Ty said, "I've brought most of my stuff to Stacey's all ready. It's all working out well." Holly smiled brightly.
"Well, that's really cool." She said, "I hope all of this goes well for the two of you."
"The three of us." Ty winked going back to his bedroom as Carlos walked out.
"Hey. What are you doing here?" He kissed her cheek.
"I wanted to tell you something." Holly said. Carlos nodded.
"I'm listening." He grinned putting his hands to his ears, trying to listen closer. holly chuckled nervously smacking his hands away.
"Well, you know we love each other right?" holly asked. Carlos nodded sitting on the couch.
"you're not breaking up with me right?" He asked. Holly giggled softly.
"No, I'm not. I just wanted to tell you, that I see you in my future." She said to him, "I see myself marrying you and having children with you. I'm not saying we have to move as quickly as Ty and Stacey, but When you're ready...I will be ready." Carlos stared at her. he wasn't sure how to take that. She was hinting that she was ready to take the next step, but yet...she wasn't. It made him nervous, but yet...It didn't. Boy, he was now very confused.
