That night, as Ray lay sleeping in bed, Debra was sitting there with her hands on her stomach and a huge smile on her face. She still couldn't believe she was actually pregnant. There was only one thing that worried her, how on earth would she tell the kids.
"What are you still doing up?" Ray asks; he has obviously been asleep for a while.
"Just thinking," Debra replies with a smile.
"Come on honey," he says. "I know you're excited, but you need your sleep. You know, we do need to tell my parents eventually."
"Hey Ray," she says, turning onto her side to look him in the eyes. "I had an idea."
"Uh oh," Ray says, rolling his eyes.
"No, come on," Debra says, a little annoyed. "I was thinking we let them guess. Your mom will probably guess in like two seconds anyway. But wouldn't it be funny if they didn't guess for a couple months?"
"You're playing with fire," he tells her. "You're gonna get burned."
Debra gives him a smile.
"Come on Ray," she says, sticking her lower lip out at him to add to the effect. "It could be fun!"
"Deb," he tells her. "Can't you see how this could make my mother mad?"
"Sure," Debra replies. "But she'll get over it, she'll be mad for like two seconds, but then she'll realize that this means she'll have another grandchild and she'll be back to her usual overbearing self."
Ray shoots Debra a questioning look. Sometimes his wife could be so weird!
"Fine, I'll go along with your little scheme," he tells her. "But if she asks me, I'm not going to lie for you."
"You don't have to," she says, giving him a kiss. "Just don't tell them anything."
"Ok," ray replies.
Debra lies down with her head on Ray's chest. He kisses the top her of head.
"I love you Ray," Debra says.
"Yeah," he replies. "You say that now."
Debra laughs before closing her eyes and drifting off to sleep.
