Hey there Territes ( I'm trying a new intro out again, it is good?). So, I've gotten to the part of the series with Gavin, and I hate him. Mostly because I'm an Auslly shipper.
Anyway, now that I've unintentionally bored you with this intro card, please enjoy!
'' I can't take this anymore'' Ally sighed, Alex and Ava running around her and Austin.
'' Me neither. Don't get me worn, I love those little guys but I need a break.''
'' Agreed. Say, my bedrest ends today and we have an appointment with Dr. Vanucci.''
'' And Dez and Carrie are looking for real estate in the area'' Austin grinned.
'' But they need regular breaks since they have one-track minds'' Ally smiled.
Digging out his phone, Austin rang his best friend.
'' Hey buddy what's up?'' Dez asked.
'' Hey Dez, how's condo hunting going?''
Dez shrugged. '' It's going. So, what'd you call for?''
Austin sighed. '' What're you and Carrie up to right now?''
'' We're in Wave-view. Turns out you guys have some pretty steep prices.''
'' Says the guy who owns housing in San Francisco.''
'' Hey, no need to be bitter, just tell me what's up.''
'' Well, Ally's due-
'' She's due?! Dud, she has like 4 more months of being preggers. Carrie! Get the blankets, we're doing this birth old-school-
'' Dez! I was saying she's due for another appointment from Dr. Vanucci.''
'' Who?''
'' The Dr. Trish has a thing for.''
'' Oh him. But how does that involve us?''
'' Well…'' Austin spoke in a much softer voice so his children couldn't hear him. '' Ally and I need a break from the kids, since you guys are in the area, we need free babysitting.''
'' Free? Dude I don't do anything for free. Especially when I know how much you make.''
'' Fine, 10 dollars an hour.''
'' Closer.''
'' 15.''
'' Warmer.''
'' 20, my final offer.''
'' 25, and I get to use your hot tub.''
'' 19 and I don't tell Carrie that you have pre-dinner meals at the diner down your street.''
'' Deal. I'll be there in 20''
Austin smiled as he turned nex to him, where Ally should have been.
'' Hey kids, where'd mommy go?''
'' Upstairs. She said swear words'' Ava answered.
'' Ok. Thanks.''
Austin made his way into his and Ally's bathroom, where he saw her looking at her figure in the mirror.
'' What're you doing here?'' Austin asked, giving Ally a fright.
'' Jeez Austin, don't you knock?!''
'' Not when its my own home. But seriously, why're you posing in front of the mirror?''
'' I miss my old figure'' Ally sighed. '' Now I look like a whale.''
'' Ally don't be ridiculous. You're as beautiful as the day I met you. If not more. Also, you're pregnant not fat. Trust me, once this kid gets out of you, you'll be back to your old athletic figure in no time.''
'' Thanks babe. Although I do think that I need to go shopping for maternity wear soon.''
'' What's wrong with your old maternity wear?''
'' Follow me'' Ally motioned, walking into her closet. '' See these?'' Ally pointed to her old maternity clothes.
'' Yeah-oh wow!'' Austin gasped, as Ally held them up to him. All of her clothes were either faded or had holes in them from moths.
'' Yeah. So I need to go sometime soon. And with my bedrest over, I'll need to go relatively soon.''
'' Then you'll go, but for now we kind of need to get going. If not for any other reason other than I want to beat traffic.''
'' Fine'' Ally moaned, for some reason Austin had a thing for punctuality, like even worse than she did.
As the pair made their way down the stairs they were greeted by a blonde woman and a redheaded man, busy playing with their children.
'' Dez? Carrie? How did you guys get in here?'' Ally asked.
'' We have a key'' Carrie answered.
'' What? Who would-'' Ally glared at her husband.
'' What? They're here often enough, and besides who's more repsonbile than these two?'' Austin asked.
'' Hey Ally?'' Carrie asked.
'' Yeah?''
'' Was this ball expensive?'' Carrie asked, pointing to a shattered red glass ball.
Ally glared at Austin again.
'' Fine, I'll call the locksmith.''
-x-
'' Welcome back you two. Say, where's the little guy, I still can't believe he called me Dr. Ouchy.''
Austin and Ally were currently in Dr Vanucci's rooms. Ally, because Austin hadn't consulted her about the key, was still slightly mad at him.
'' Alex? We left him and his sister behind. With all the family drama going on, we kinda needed some, us time ya know?'' Ally shrugged.
'' Say no more. My wife just had a kid, I swear I've never loved coming here more than when I became a dad. Any-who Ally, before we start, I need a report from Austin. How's she been doing stress-wise?''
'' Actually well. The last two weeks have gone by super fast. I've actually had to start cooking dinner. Also she's a lot calmer, less pale and generally in a better mood.''
'' Good. Also, Lady Alisson, I've got two pieces of good news for ya.'' Dr. Vanucci smiled, leading the pair into his backroom.
'' Really?'' Ally said jovially.
'' Yeah, but I need you to lift your shirt up first'' Dr. Vanucci joked, firing up the ultrasound machine.
'' Eh, fair point'' Ally said, lying down and pulling up her shirt. Dr. Vanucci grabbed a clear squirt bottle and administered the liquid onto the pretty brunette's stomach.
Ally cringed. '' one pregnancy later and this stuff is still cold as ice.''
'' yeah, I know. So, time for part one of the news. Ya ready?''
'' Yep. What is it?'' Austin asked.
'' Well, take a listen'' the group went silent, a familiar sound was heard.
'' That's our kid's-
'' Heartbeat '' Austin finished. '' It's its heartbeat.''
'' That's not all you two. Since this little thing is facing the right way, I can tell you what it is if you'd like.''
'' Well, we've talked about it, and we want to know what it is.'' Ally answered.
'' Alright, Austin, I have some bad news'' Dr. Vanucci said, putting his hand on the man's shoulder.
'' What, is something wrong?'' Austin asked, panic in his voice.
'' Well, you and Alex are going to be outnumbered. Congrats ya yucks, you're having a girl!''
Ally squealed before seeing Austin's face. '' Babe, are you ok?''
'' I can't believe it.''
'' I didn't know having a boy was so important to you'' Ally responded.
'' Its not, these are tears of joy. Our family's complete…again.''
'' Man, I love you guys. You're my favorite patients'' Dr. Vanucci sniffed.
'' Hey Doc, can you do something for us?'' Austin asked.
'' Name it.''
'' Can you print that?'' Austin pointed to the ultrasound.
'' Sure. However, I want something in return.''
Ally sat up, after wiping off the gel. '' And that would be?''
'' I want…'' Dr. Vanucci motioned for them to follow him into his office, there he pulled out a copy of every Claws dun dun dun movie. ''For your friend to sign these. All 8.''
'' All 8, seriously?'' Ally protested.
'' You want the pic or not?''
'' Fine'' Ally put the movies in her purse.
As the pair walked out, Austin spoke. '' You know he would've printed it anyway right?''
'' I know, I just enjoy stroking Dez's ego is all.''
When the pair arrived home, they walked in to see Dez and Carrie fast asleep with Alex and Ava sprawled over them.
'' Aww'' Ally cooed quietly.
'' Kinda makes you think huh?''
'' About?''
'' Why're we so worked up over the drama when stuff like this happens.''
'' You're right, weird that I just said that, but you're right'' Ally shrugged.
-x-
'' Evening sleepyheads'' Austin smiled, as his friends slowly woke up.
'' What the hell? We weren't even out that long. Its only…five-pm?!'' Dez shrieked.
'' Welcome to parenting dude. Sleeping irregularly.''
'' Weird though. I remember Alex on my chest '' Carrie stated.
'' Yeah, Ava was on mine as well, where'd they get to?''
'' Uncle Dez, Aunt Carrie!'' the twins shrieked, running up to their babysitters.
'' Hey guys, what's up?'' Dez asked.
'' You're the best babysitter ever'' Ava squeezed her godfather.
'' Aww thanks sweetheart.''
'' What about me? Am I the best babysitter ever too?'' Carrie smirked.
'' Better'' Alex answered, hugging the woman.
'' Aww, so sweet '' Ally beamed, from the kitchen.
'' So, everyone, follow me'' Austin called, the entire group following him into the dining room.
'' We have big news'' Austin smiled, looking at Ally.
'' Alex, Ava, you guys are getting a baby sister!'' Ally smiled.
Ava jumped up and down, Alex however, looked less than happy.
'' Hey rockstar, you ok?'' Ally asked.
'' Sister? Not a brother?'' he asked, looking up at his parents.
'' Yep, sorry kiddo, I didn't know it was so important that mommy had a boy'' Austin sympathized.
The child stayed quiet. Clearly, some old feelings had resurfaced.
-x-
The following day saw the entire family gathered in the den to discuss baby names. It had been Ally's idea to include the twins in the discussion, after all they were going to be big parts of this kid's life.
'' Melissa?''
'' Nah, too…eh''
'' Daphne?''
'' No.''
'' Helen?''
'' She'd sue us if she found out!''
Ally put her hand to her face. '' Come on Austin, stop shooting down my ideas. Let's see what you've got.''
Austin pulled out his phone. '' Alright, Alex, you need to practice reading. What do these say?''
The child climbed onto the couch and looked at the device.
'' Devin?'' he slowly read.
'' Great! But no Big Mouth names.''
'' Alice?''
'' Another great read rockstar, but still no.''
'' Ruth?'' Alex squinted.
'' Oh Gd no. She'll be a baby but a grandma as well, with that name'' Austin joked, Ally then sniping him with a throw pillow.
'' We've been at this for a half-hour. So far every idea's been shot down'' Ally complained. '' You know what, kids, what do you think the baby's name should be?''
Ava piped up. '' Sofia.''
'' Mm, tempting, let's definitely think about it'' Ally smiled.
'' How about April?" Ava suggested.
'' Not a bad idea'' Austin grinned.
'' Kitana!"' Alex squeaked.
'' No Mortal Kombat names bud, sorry'' Ally said.
'' Moira?''
'' No Overwatch names either.''
'' Alz, quit shutting down his ideas.''
'' Really? This coming from the man who almost had our child named Fulgore?''
'' Hey! It could've been a cool name!'' Austin refuted.
'' We may need to take a break from this. Who's up for an episode of Blue's Clues?'' Ally asked, both children happily agreeing.
As the family watched the show, Austin and Ally spoke. '' So, you ready for today?''
'' I guess so. I've been fine in my normal clothes for a while now. Guess I'm officially fat enough for maternity clothes again.''
'' You aren't fat. You're pregnant. I'll happily tell you that a thousand times if I have to.''
'' Aww, thanks Cute nickname. So, you ready for a day of babysitting?''
'' I don't think it counts as babysitting when they're my own kids.''
'' Eh, still. Trish and I could be gone for a while. Are you sure you're going to be ok alone?''
'' Ally come on. I can handle my own children. We've parented alone before.''
'' Still.'' Ally was soon interrupted by the ringing of their doorbell. Getting up, the woman went to go answer it.
'' Trish! How've you been?!'' Ally squealed.
'' I've been fine since. How's carrying a kid?''
'' Its fine. Austin and the kids are in the den.''
'' Blue's Clues?''
'' How did you know?''
'' Allison, sweetie, I've babysat your kids before. I know what they like.''
The two women entered the den,
'' Guess who's taking your wife away for the day?'' Trish trilled.
'' Holy crap. Go give a hug to your aunt Trish'' Austin ordered, his children blindly following his orders.
'' Trish, I really can't thank you enough for doing this'' Austin smiled.
'' Doing what? Maxing out Jace's credit card? That's a Tuesday for me.''
'' Well, I don't feel like bankrupting my friend. Let's take it easy on the spending'' Ally smiled.
Austin, Alex, Ava and Trish were silent for a second before they burst out laughing.
'' What's so funny?''
" Ally, I love you more than life itself but if I gave you my credit card you'd come back with enough clothes for a family of 36'' Austin laughed.
'' Not true!'' Ally refuted.
'' Mommy, you bought me and Ava 1000 dollar sheets'' Alex added. Austin went white.
'' Oh wow, look at the time, Trish let's go'' Ally nervously laughed.
'' But the mall doesn't open until 9-
'' I said let's go!'' Ally snapped. '' We'll take my VOLVO XC90.''
'' The Karen mobile? Alright'' Trish shrugged.
-x-
A half hour later, the two women found themselves inside the Wave-view mall. Unlike the one they had gone to when Ally was pregnant with the twins. Wave-view was a lot bigger. Easily one of the biggest in Florida.
With a 1,380,000 square foot size, 300+ stores it easily dwarfed the mall that Austin, Ally, Trish and Dez used to hang out in.
The women soon made their way into a maternity store called GIFT.
'' Alright Alz, go wild '' Trish smirked.
'' I already told you, I'm not bankrupting Jace '' Ally quoted.
'' Come on, look at this place, its like maternity for the loaded.''
'' Trish, you know I hate using my wealth for personal gain.''
'' Ugh, there you go with that Ally-Moon morality. Look, there is a lot of cash on this thing. As your old manager/best friend, I order you to spend.''
'' Ok ok'' Ally said, strolling around the store. '' Nothing really appeals to my- oh my Gd look at those, thing!'' Ally squealed. The woman had found herself a pair of black jeans with lime green lines on the sides of the legs.
'' Seriously? Alright'' Trish shrugged.
For the next hour, Ally kept insisting on spending less money, finding clothes she adored and completely ignoring her original thoughts. By the time they had finished and gotten in line, Ally had made out like a bandit.
'' So much for not wanting to bankrupt my fiancé'' Trish bit.
'' Hey, this is quality-wait did you say fiancé?''
Trish shrugged. '' I wanted to tell you later, but since the cat's out of the bag'' Trish held out her hand, showing off a silver mesh band.
'' Oh, that's so romantic. When's the wedding?''
'' Next year June. We wanted a summer wedding.''
'' Aww. That's so nice.''
'' Thanks Ally. Will you be by matron of honor?''
'' Of course I will, you were mine weren't you?''
'' I was.''
The pair made it to the front of the line, Ally dug in her purse for her wallet.
'' Don't even think about it Allison'' Trish whipped out Jace's card. '' There's a reason I'm engaged to Jace.''
Ah Trish, always unpredictable. Thanks so much for reading guys, hope you enjoyed it. As usual, stay safe and stay awesome!
