I sat in the dining room a deep frown on my face as I looked at my mom and dad as they looked through books of baby items. Hekapoo was in my room making sure we both could sleep there, which I didn't mind but punching me through a wall was overkill.

"MARCO!"

Hekapoo yelled, and I turned my head then yelled back. "What?"

"Come up here!"

I looked at the stairs then sighed before getting up and heading upstairs. When I reached the top, I saw a portal in front of my door with mewmens moving things into my room, which shouldn't have fit in the room. I walked in slipping past the portal and froze. My room had turned into the same place we slept in the night before I left her dimension. I looked around and found Hekapoo sitting on the bed as her clones told the worker to put things here and there. I walked up to her and saw a list in her hands. She tried to hide it when she saw me coming towards her, but I grabbed it before she could get rid of it.

"Hol…"

I snatched the paper from her hand and put a hand on her forehead when she tried to get it back. As I looked over the paper, I saw it was a list of names for both boys and girls. I smiled as I looked back at her face red. I laughed a little and gave the file again. "If it helps I like Phoenix the best.*

"Shut up, Marco!"

I laughed as she threw stuff at me as her flame grew with her fury. I ran around the room trying to get away from her but she was mad. I wasn't watching where I was going and slammed face first into the wall and Hekapoo laughed at me as she looked at me. I stood from the floor then walked over her as she laughed laying on the bed then looked at me as I looked down at her. She slowly stopped laughing and I smiled as I looked down at her and waved the mewmens out. They quickly left and once the door was closed and I heard the portal close I set abone her. She started to scream and laugh as I tickled her sides and she kicked her legs as she tried to stop me.

"Haha! Stop! HAHA!"

I smiled and stopped after a few seconds and Hekapoo laid on the bed then snuggled down into my side. I smiled as I grabbed the headboard then put my arm around her shoulder then pulled us up the pillows. Hekapoo moved her hand from my side to her stomach. I smiled as I cupped her cheeks and she looked up at me with her uncovered eye as her face turned red. I smiled as I leaned down and kissed her lips softly and she kissed back. We broke the kiss and she laid her head down on my chest. I smiled then we heard sniffling in the room and we looked at the door. I saw my mom and dad trying not to cry his eyes out. I sighed and Hekapoo's face turned bright red and she punched me off the bed. I heard my mother laugh a little then I heard the door close. "I should have seen that coming." I got up to see Hekapoo hiding her face in her hands and my mom at her side. I sighed as I stood up and walked around the bed heading for the door. "I'll go f etc some sweets."

"Thanks Marco."

Hekapoo spoke in a soft voice and I heard my mom humming a tone. I turned back and saw my mom holding Hekapoo and running a hand over her hair and shoulder. I smiled and opened the door and jumped back as Star and my dad fell into the room. Sighed as I looked down at them. "Okay, get up." I reached down and helped them up. "Come on Star we need to talk."

"What's wrong Marco?"

I grabbed her arm and pulled her along as she laughed. I walked down the steps and into the kitchen. Star jumped onto the counter and started to kick her legs as she looked at me.

"So Marco what did you need to talk to me about?"

I sighed as I set a tub of ice cream on the counter and leaned back as I looked at her. "I need a favor from you. I need to know more about her. As well as some magic baby stuff so could you please talk to your mom." Star smiled and laughed as she kicked her legs.

"Maybe but as this is a favor what do I get for doing that?"

I was shocked as I looked at Star. She'd never talked to me like this before. "Well, what do you want Star?" She smiled as she stopped kicking her legs as she looked at me.

"Well, I know what I want but we can talk about that in a little while. As for now let me go take care of this."

She hopped off the counter and ran back up the steps. I sighed knowing the weirdest Star could come up with. 'Forget it, Hekapoo is your priority now.' I got a spoon and ran back up the steps with a slightly softened ice cream in hand. I got back to our room and walked in to see Hekapoo holding down my dad by his arm with my mom trying to calm her down. She looked at me and she let him go as she looked at me.

"I told him before not to touch my stomach."

I sighed as dad got to his feet again. He was tearing up and I rolled my eyes. I walked over and patted his shoulder and gave Hekapoo the ice cream and spoon. Hekapoo took them and pulled the lid off and started to eat as she looked at me.

"Thanks."

I nodded as I sat down in front of them and looked at her stomach. "Do you think it's a boy or girl?" She stopped eating the ice cream then looked down at her stomach.

"You know that's a good question. If I could pick I would love it to be a girl."

I smiled and nodded as I looked up at her. "Ya, I'd like that too."

"So, should we start shopping for a nina?"

I looked at my mom and nodded my head as I looked at her. "We need to have her checked first. An ultrasound should tell us what we have on the way."

"It's too son we'd have to wait another month before they can tell but a ultrasound photo would be lovely to have."

Hekapoo looked between us with the spoon in her mouth. I looked at her and my mom started to explain.

"An ultrasound machine transmits high-frequency sound pulses into your body using a probe. The sound waves travel into your body and hit a boundary between tissues. It will give us an image of the baby." She hummed as she ate another spoonful of ice cream.

"Honey, Marco is right wouldn't you like to see what the baby looks like?"

She looked away with a blush on her face.

"Ya, but wouldn't something like that hurt?"

My mom laughed then nodded as she put a hand on her shoulder.

"No honey, a friend of mine had one not long again. She said the worst part was the gell they use so the probe can move smoothly."

I felt like a third wheel as I listened to the two of them talk. But, I was grateful to see the two of them getting along. If she was really going to live here Hekapoo and my parents were going to have to get along. I sat there for a while letting them talk and once she finished the ice cream. My mom took the empty tub and spoon then left the room. I stood from the floor and sat down beside her. She sighed then leaned into my side.

"You got a really sweet mother."

I nodded as I wrapped an arm around her shoulder. "Ya, she's great." Hekapoo laughed then grabbed my shirt and made us fall back. We laughed as we fell onto our backs onto the bed. She touched my stomach and frowned as she slipped her hand up under my shirt.

"I'm going to miss those abs and muscles."

"Hey, those took years to build. It's going to take me awhile to get them back." She puffed her cheek up as she looked at me.

"Well hurry up!"

I laughed and turned and moved her hair out of her face. She blushed as she looked at me. "Ok, but I want something from you." She raised an eyebrow.

"And that is?"

I smiled as I looked over to the closet she'd brought. "Well, I'm going to find a part-time job to start getting the baby stuff. But, what I want from you is to wear normal clothes so I can watch our baby grow with your dress hiding it." She seemed surprised as she looked at me.

"Is that all you want?"

I nodded as I looked her in the eyes. "Ya, I've got some money saved so we can go to the mall whenever you want." She smiled then sat up and stood up.

"Can we go now?!"

I laughed then looked around and spotted my drawer and desk in the corner. I walked over and opened the top drawer and grabbed the four hundred dollars I'd saved over the last three years. "Say did Nachos come with you?"

"No, I left her with a friend while I moved, want me to get her?"

I nodded and she pulled out her scissors and cut open a portal a second later two dragon cycles came out. Nachos quickly rode over to me and rested her head on her stomach and purred as I ean a hand down her head and neck and I looked over at Hekapoo's dragon. He was large and with wings and had a smaller set of horns. I smiled as he looked back at Nachos and she looked at him. She rode over and rubbed our head on his head before he went back through the portal. She rode over to the large open window and ruffled her wings. I laughed and nodded as I got on her back.

"I know girl, it's been a while so let's get going." Hekapoo got in behind me and thankfully Nachos was more than big enough for two people to ride on her back. Nachos opened her wings and flew out the window. She touched down on the ground and took off. I laughed as she raced around the streets. Hekapoo held tight to my jacket and had her head buried in my back. I stopped at a red light and Hekapoo spoke up.

"This place has so many shops. The local economy must be great."

I nodded as I started to drive again. After another minute I pulled up to the mall and parked Nachos in the shade and she laid down after we got off. I pulled out the cash from my jacket pocket and stuck it into my front pocket knowing the chances of her popping up out nowhere again. "Ok, I think I know just the store for you Hekapoo." I grabbed her hand and started to walk. I noticed her looking down at our hand out of the corner of my eye and she smiled. I smiled as I walked us into the mall.
