Lita shook her head when she heard a loud crashing sound coming from a room nearby followed by a scream. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath before she left what she was doing in the laundry room and went to see what the commotion was about.

"Mommy," a mini Lita said crying making her way to her mother. "he hit me," she said pointing at her twin brother.

Lita looked over at her son who looked guilty. "Didn't I tell you not to do that? Do you want me to tell daddy?"

"No mommy, It was accident."

"He pushed me." The mini Lita pouted who wasn't crying anymore.

"Why did you do that?"

"She took my car from me."

"She's your sister. You need to share with her."

"I was playing with that one. She could take another, she took that one."

Lita looked at her daughter. "Did you take the car he was playing with?" Her daughter nodded. "Why didn't you take another car that he wasn't playing with?"

"I like green."

Lita sighed shaking her head. "Next time, play with something he isn't playing with." The red-head turned her attention back to her son. "Don't push her again or I will tell daddy."

"No daddy." The little boy whined.

"Then don't hit your sister again. Put away your toys. I think it's time for your nap."

"I don't wanna sleep mommy," both children complained.

"Yes you do, don't argue with me. It's time for your nap." The children did as they were told and put away their toys and Lita put them down for their nap. She could tell they were cranky and were in much need for a nap, she wished she could take one too.

Lita went back to putting the laundry away she was previously working on before her kids fighting interrupted her. She slightly jumped and let out a yelp when she felt arms wrap around her from behind her. "Woah calm down. It's just me."

"John, don't do that again," Lita said turning around to face him while trying to catch her breath.

"Sorry," he said placing a kiss on her cheek. "Where are the kids?"

"Your spawns are taking a nap."

John lifted a brow. "Don't call them that. What did they do?"

"Fight over a car when they had other ones around them to play with."

John shrugged his shoulders. "They're four. Kids do these types of things."

"They need to learn how to share."

"They share perfectly fine with other kids." John said talking about the kids at the preschool their children went to.

"They know how to share with others, just not each other." She paused before she continued. "They should go to daycare during the weekends too. Or just take them with you next time you go to the store."

"So they can grab everything and throw it in the cart?"

"Better bothering you than me."

"Someone needs a nap."

Lita rolled her eyes. "I need a billion of naps."

"Okay, go take one. I'll finish in here and whatever else you were doing. I'll handle the kids if they wake up before you do."

"John-," Lita started to protest before he interrupted her.

He shook his head. "No babe. I don't want to hear it. Go take a nap and I'll take care of what you were doing. I won't mess anything up if that's what you're worried about."

She thought about it for a few minutes but then nodded. "Okay. Thanks. Just don't let me sleep for more than an hour." She paused for a second. "Okay an hour and a half at most." He nodded then placed a quick kiss on her lips. "I love you."

He smiled. "Well, good thing cause we are married."

She lightly slapped him on the arm. "You're a dork."

Lita woke up in similar fashion as she did when she woke up a month ago when she had her first dream about John. This could not be happening again. Even though it wasn't the same exact thing, nowhere near, but how could she have another dream about him. Especially a dream which had the two of them married. This doesn't mean anything, Lita tried to reason with herself. Well, in the dream we were with our kids so obviously I'm only having it because I'm about to have his babies. Ugh, whatever.

She saw it was eight in the morning and she didn't want to go back to sleep even though she was really tired, she kept waking up almost every hour because she felt very uncomfortable and she had to keep using the bathroom, stupid bladder. She laid back down in bed hoping she wouldn't fall asleep. She didn't want another dream about this, she didn't know if it meant anything and she didn't want to think about it either. Fortunately for her, she fell asleep without having a dream and woke up another hour later.

She made her way down to the kitchen after she washed her face and brushed her teeth. Trish was currently making pancakes. "Good morning sleepy head." The blonde smiled when she saw the red-head make her way to the refrigerator and take out a carton of orange juice and pour herself a glass. She mumbled something in return which resembled a 'good morning' but Trish wasn't quite sure. "Um, what's wrong?" Trish asked.

"Nothing." Lita said taking a seat on one of the chairs at the table. "You know other than the fact that I have to pee every five seconds, I can't find a comfortable sleeping position, the babies keep kicking and moving around, and my back hurts like hell, but other than that, nothing." Trish didn't know what to say so she just handed Lita a plate of pancakes who just stared at it for a couple of minutes before she decided to eat. Trish joined her as well, eating her own pancakes.

Trish saw how Lita was acting and knew something else had to be up. "Okay Li, what's wrong? It's something else. Don't lie to me."

Lita rolled her eyes. "If you must know, I had another dream about John."

"The same one?"

"No."

Trish waited for her to continue, but she didn't. "Okay, would you like to elaborate."

"Not really," Lita said pushing the plate away from herself.

"Um, you better finish that." Trish said when she saw what Lita just did, she only had a couple of bites.

"I don't want too."

"Li-"

"I will later okay, I don't want to right now. I want pickles."

"Um..."

"With peanut butter."

Trish scrunched her nose in disgust. "Okay, ew. You don't even like peanut butter."

"So, I want some."

"Okay, I guess we can go to the store and pick some up after breakfast. In the mean time, tell me about your dream."

Lita groaned. Trish was not going to let this go, maybe she shouldn't have said anything in the first place. "Fine, if you must know, I had a dream I was married to John."

"OH MY GOD!"

Lita rolled her eyes. "Let's not start that again."

"Okay, sorry but Oh my God!"

Lita arched a brow. "Do you not want me to tell you the rest?"

"Continue."

"Well, that was basically it. We were married, and our babies were four, so they weren't babies but you get the point. I guess you could say we were one happy family."

"That's so cute." Trish gushed while Lita rolled her eyes yet again. "Okay, I'm going to say something but I know you're going to hate it so please just hear me out before you get angry."

"Whatever."

"Okay, maybe the first dream didn't mean anything, well, it probably did, but this one definitely means something."

"All this dream means is that me and John are about to be parents. And that I hope my kids have a normal family life even though nothing about how I'm having them is normal."

Now it was Trish's turn to roll her eyes at her stubborn friend. "You're forgetting I'm the one person who knows you the most. I'm the one person who actually knows about your random reoccurring crushes on John. You love him."

"Duh, he's one of my best-friends. I asked him for his sperm. I wouldn't pick someone I didn't love if I wasn't going to use a sperm bank."

Trish snorted. "You know that's not what I meant, you're in love with him."

"Tri-"

"Come on!" Trish interrupted her. "Please just admit you're in love with him! Make your life easier and just admit it. He's not even with Maria anymore or some other chick so admit it. Talk to him. This would be the perfect time to talk to him."

She shook her head. "It'll just ruin everything. He'll probably accuse me of choosing him to father my children because that would make him stuck with me no matter what."

"Ha! So you admit it! You're in love with him! And you know John isn't like that, he wouldn't say that."

"Fine Trishy," Lita said rolling her eyes, "I admit it. I'm in love with him."

"This is so exciting! Finally! So what are you going to do about it?"

"I don't know."

"I do, you're going to go over there and talk to him before it's too late."

"He doesn't feel the same way."

Trish shrugged. "You don't know that. He could be harboring feelings for you deep down inside. He could be secretly in love with you like you are with him!"

LIta rolled her eyes. "You're way too excited about this and I doubt that."

"Duh! You finally admit it and I'm so excited! I have been waiting for this day! And you never know, it could happen."

"You're so dramatic. You watch too many movies."

"Whatever, you better go over there and talk to him today." It was quite for a while before she spoke up again. "So what were the names?"

"Of?"

"The kids."

"Oh, that's funny. It never really came up."

Lita had finally decided a couple of hours later that she would talk to John today. Trish was right, she had to talk to him no matter what. She couldn't just keep this to herself, if he didn't feel the same way, that would be fine, they could talk about it and just pretend she never said anything. Yea right. She decided to call him before she went over to his apartment to talk to him to make sure he was actually there.

"Hello?"

"Hey."

"Oh, hey Li. What's up?"

"Um, I need to talk to you."

"What about? Is everything okay."

I don't know. "Yea, I... I rather talk to you about this in person. Can I come over?"

"Yea, of course. I need to talk to you about something too."

"What about?"

He smiled. "You'll find out when you come."

"Okay." Now she was curious. "Alright, give me fifteen minutes."

John snorted, "You say fifteen minutes but you mean an hour."

"Shut up. Bye." And with that, she hung up the phone.

Lita finally made it to John's apartment more than an hour later. She knew he would bug her for that later but whatever. It wasn't her fault she took forever. She couldn't find the proper shoes to fit her swollen feet. Flip flops fit but it was February, she couldn't wear flip flops when it was always freezing. But she was so frustrated and didn't care anymore and just put on a pair, she wasn't going to be staying outside for long anyways. Plus, she had a pair of socks with her just in case she needed to put those on. Sure it was tacky wearing socks with flip flops but she really didn't care. She stayed in her car for another couple of minutes before she would actually get out and walk up to his apartment. True to his words, Dave helped her find a good car after her Jeep died a month ago. She liked this one but she did miss her Jeep, after all, it was her first car which she had for years. She finally got out of the car and started walking towards John's apartment spending another couple of minutes in front of the door when she finally made it there. It's now or never, she thought as she finally knocked on the door.

To say she was shocked by who opened the door would be an understatement. "Hi Li!"

Okay weird, she's never called me that before. What the hell is she doing here? "Um, Hey Maria."

"Come in!" Maria said pulling the red-head in the door as gently as possibly then closing the door behind her. Lita kept getting more and more confused. Why was Maria here?

"You know that was more than fifteen minutes. It was even more than an hour." John said making Lita finally notice his presence.

"Yea, I guess it was." She was clearly still confused.

"John! Tell her the good news!" Maria said.

"You guys got back together?" That's not good news, Lita thought while hoping she was wrong but she knew she wasn't.

"No. Well, yea, like a month ago. But better!" Maria said not letting John say anything even though she told John to tell Lita who anxiously waited to hear what was going to be said next. "Okay John, she's your best-friend, you tell her."

"I asked her to marry me and she said yes." Lita could tell he was really happy by the way he was smiling which made her heart sink a bit.

"We're engaged!" Maria exclaimed showing Lita the engagement ring on her finger.

"Congratulations," was all Lita could muster up to say. She was late.

Thanks for reading. Thanks for the reviews.

Maria is back. And they're engaged. How do we feel about that?

You'll learn about the phone call (the one from the previous chapter) in the next chapter. Do you want a flashback of the call or just a small explanation? I'm pretty sure you guys have a good idea of who the phone call was from. Candice and her bitchiness make an appearance in the next chapter!
