Chapter 11

Three months later

"It's normal to be nervous, right?" Lindsay asked with a nervous laugh.

Zoey chuckled. "Of course it is. You're getting married for cripes sakes!"

"It just went so fast. But so slow at the same time."

"Linny, there's been nothing slow about the last three months. I got engaged, you got engaged, and you're getting married… Here we are at the salon, mere hours from your wedding." Zoey provided dramatically.

Lindsay sighed as she watched the hairdresser in the mirror. Zoey was right, it had gone really fast. It was like, all of a sudden, the pieces fell into place. Danny proposed to her a day after Flack 'proposed' to Zoey. Lindsay had always wanted a spring wedding, hence the short engagement. Zoey and Flack were going to marry in August. She smiled to herself. Zoey and Flack. She couldn't believe he proposed, then bringing up kids. Flack wanted his own kids, not that he didn't consider Ryan his own…but babies. Lindsay chuckled.

"What's so funny?" Zoey asked.

"I was just thinking about Flack with a baby." She giggled. "Can't wait to see it. Promise to videotape him changing a diaper for the first time?"

"As long as you do the same with Danny." She teased back.

"Hah, that'll be a few years from now."

"What makes you think that? I say you'll be pregnant in a year."

"What? Why do you think that?" Lindsay asked, shocked.

"I've seen you two with Ryan. As soon as you settle down into married life, you'll realize it." Zoey smiled.

"I thought you and Flack were going to start trying?" Lindsay asked, trying to change the subject.

"Nice segway." Zoey snickered. "But yes, in theory, we are trying."

"In theory? Why aren't you pregnant yet?" She winked. "We want a baby!"

Zoey laughed. "Ok well, it doesn't happen with the snap of any fingers. Takes a while for the pill to wear off and my cycle to normalize. We had to talk to Ryan first, of course, he was thrilled. But I don't think I want to be pregnant at my wedding."

"So you've been holding out on him?" Lindsay asked, a little surprised.

"I've been 'family planning'. You know; no sex on certain days of the month. I feel bad, but…..does this make me a bad person?" she asked seriously.

"What? No! Not at all. You've already decided not to work in Harlem next school year, which was his biggest thing right? A little take and give…." Lindsay reassured.

"Right. You're right. God, enough about me! This is your wedding day!"

"Hey Messer." Flack greeted as he and Ryan walked into the hotel room reserved for the groom.

"Hey guy. Got the tuxes?"

"And the rings. Told you it would be okay. Ye of little faith." Flack said shaking his head.

"Why are you nervous Dino?" Ryan asked, using his newfound nickname for Danny.

"It's a big day buddy. I just want it to go like Aunt Lindsay wants it to go." Danny smiled. 'And hopefully she won't change her mind.' He added to himself.

"Oh. Well, it will be ok, 'cause I promise to do it just like we practiced. I'll be good." Ryan told him seriously.

"Thanks buddy. I know you'll try your hardest." Danny smiled at him. "So, should we start getting ready?"

"It'll take us about 30 minutes to get to the Church. How long is it gonna take you to get ready?" Flack teased.

"What do I do in the meantime? Just sit here and make myself more nervous?" he asked.

"Let's watch tv!" Ryan exclaimed.

Danny smiled. "Good idea. You can pick the show."

They watched 'Arthur' in silence for about 15 minutes. Ryan was pretty upset that nothing was on but he settled for the 'baby show' over 'As the World Turns'. Finally, Ryan spoke.

"Don?..." he asked quietly looking down at his hands as he picked at the comforter on the bed.

"Ya…." Flack replied slowly, unsure of Ryan's sudden shyness.

"You and mom are getting married, right?" he asked, still looking down.

"Yes, in August. We told you that already…" Flack said furrowing his brow, unsure of where this was heading. Danny looked on with interest.

"So, if mom's my mom, does that mean you'll be my dad?" he asked.

Danny held his breath while he waited for Flack's response. Flack glanced quickly at Danny, and then back to Ryan. "Well, only if you want me to be." Was the only response he could think of.

Ryan's head snapped up. He looked at Flack with a huge smile on his face. "Really? You'd be my dad?"

"Of course I would. You don't even have to ask." Flack ruffled his hair.

"Could we start now? Can I even call you dad?" his eyes twinkled at the prospect.

A huge smile spread across Flack's face. "Sure. We can start right now if you want."

Ryan jumped onto Flack and gave him a big hug. "This is so cool! I can't wait to tell mom!"

"Hey! What about me? Don't I get a hug?" Danny asked mocking hurt. Ryan smiled and went over to hug Danny.

"Ok boys, we better start getting ready." Flack smiled. He was unbelievably happy right now. It was official; he was a dad.

"Oh God, oh God. Zoey, I'm so nervous. I feel sick. I'm gonna cry, I know I will." Lindsay said frantically outside the church.

"Ok! Relax! Holy jeez. You sound like you're about ready to make a run for it." Zoey said as she stopped what she was doing and looked at Lindsay.

"I won't make a run for it….I promise." She smiled weakly.

"Well, I wouldn't let you anyways…I'd chase you down." Zoey winked. "Ok, all we need is Ryan, and we're ready to go."

"Speak of the devil…" Lindsay commented as Danny's mother walked Ryan towards them.

"Is it gonna start soon?" Ryan asked excitedly.

"Now that you're here, we are ready!" Lindsay smiled. "You have the rings Mr. Ring Bearer?"

"Dad gave them to me. They are in my pocket. He said not to touch them until you ask for 'em to put 'em on the pillow." He said calmly.

"Dad?" Zoey asked, confused.

"Ya! Don is my dad now. I asked him, he said it was ok." He was really excited about it.

Lindsay looked at Zoey. She could tell Zoey was really moved, and her eyes were starting to tear up. "That's really good Ry. That makes me really happy." Zoey smiled. Ryan went over to her and hugged her.

"I'm happy too, Mom. But we have to go get married now." He said seriously.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"Can you believe we just got married?" Lindsay giggled as she sat down in her seat on the plane.

"I think this means we are grown ups now." Danny smirked as he sat down beside her. "But we can be adults after we get back from the honeymoon."

"Mmmm, sounds good to me…" she said snuggling into him.

"Wait, don't fall asleep yet. Once they turn off the seatbelt light, we need to join the mile high club." He whispered.

"Danny, it's not worth it. Fighting in that small space, it's gonna smell, we'll get caught…let's nap so we are rested up for when we land in Honolulu." She sighed happily.

"Nooo, Montana…come on! How cool would it be to tell our kid he was conceived on an airplane!" he grinned.

Lindsay sat straight up. "Kid?"

Danny glanced at her. "Ya…No?" he said slowly, now embarrassed.

"Wow. I just thought…..didn't think you'd want to right away?" she said.

"You and Zoey are always talking about having kids at the same time…so I thought since…never mind. Forget I said it…" he looked away.

Lindsay smiled and put her hand on his forearm. "Danny…that means a lot to me. I figured you'd wanna wait. I didn't want to push anything upon you."

"Linds, it's up to you. I mean you're the one whose gotta carry it around for 9 months." He winked. "I'm ready whenever…Ryan, he…just makes it seem…worth it, you know?"

"I know. I'm game if you are Danny." She smiled as their eyes met.

Danny smiled as he opened his mouth to speak. Lindsay put her hand over his mouth. "No. No mile high club. Adults, Danny. Parents, Danny,"

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"So you're gonna start trying?" Zoey smiled at Lindsay. She'd been back from her 2 week honeymoon for three days. She'd been dying to meet up with Zoey to share the news.

"Ya." She blushed. "Danny's really gung ho about it. Technically we've already started trying."

"Too bad we didn't bet on it earlier. I would have won." Zoey winked.

"So you and Flack; you still being sneaky?" she asked.

"Nope." Zoey replied sipping her tea. "Didn't work out so well."

Lindsay was silent. Zoey's face was unreadable. "Does this mean….are you…oh my God, Zoey, are you pregnant?"

A huge smile flashed across Zoey's face. Lindsay squealed and jumped up from her seat to give her a hug. "How long? When did you find out? Who knows?"

"Slow down Linny!" she laughed. "I've known for a week. Although I had a feeling since the wedding, after I threw up all the chicken. That's my pregnancy no-no…chicken." Zoey closed her eyes and started deep breathing.

"You ok?" Lindsay asked.

Zoey held up her hand. A minute later, she was back to normal. "Sorry, can't even think about it." She laughed. "But, I'm 6 weeks now. You are, officially, the first to know."

"Not even Flack knows?"

"Not yet. I'm going to tell him tonight. I just wanted to try it out first. Last time, it was not a happy announcement." She pointed out.

"Well, I'm honoured." Lindsay giggled. "Does it feel the same?"

"Yes and no. I'm happier this time, obviously, so I feel better. Food aversion seems to be the same so far. I had morning sickness a lot with Ryan, but not so much now. A little nausea, but Don hasn't noticed, so can't be that bad." Zoey smiled.

"Did you have a good pregnancy with Ryan?" Lindsay asked.

"Look at you! Married and all up in the girltalk!" Zoey teased. "Overall, after the first trimester, it was good. He was textbook as far as development. I had no cravings, no stretch marks even though I was huge. He was a monster baby, 10 lbs at birth."

Lindsay winced. "Delivery must have been brutal."

"He was a week late. I started labor at 10am on a Sunday. They broke my water Monday morning around 6, he was born Monday night a 11:23."

"Oh my God. Sounds like torture." Lindsay gulped. "Epidural?"

"Of course! And you don't forget the pain. That's a myth. But, I will say, there is nothing like holding your baby for the first time," Zoey smiled.
