10 Year Reunion
Nathan and Ariel Scott were sitting in the home of Ariel's parents, who were not home. Their children were sleeping in their rooms. They now had 2 children and she was 8 months pregnant with the third one. Ava Brooklyn Scott was now 4 and Lucia Belle Scott was now 2.
"Excited about tomorrow night?" Ariel looked up at Nathan and shrugged. She put a hand on her belly. "What's wrong?"
"It's just I have this bad feeling, I'm scared of leaving the kids at home. I know Karen and your mom will take good care of them but still, maybe it's being back here. I don't know but I think I'm going crazy." Nathan shook his head and kissed her forehead.
"Everything will be fine and you better take it easy tomorrow, that baby still has a month before it comes out." Ariel laughed and leaned up to kiss Nathan. "That's my boy in there."
"Our little basketball star but I swear if you treat him like your dad treated you, I'm kicking you out." Nathan laughed and nodded. "So what are we going to name him?"
"I like Nathan." Ariel glared at him and he laughed. "What do you like?"
"Umm the name that I really like is Thorne Bradley. What do you like?" Nathan thought about it for a while.
"I actually really like the name you like. Thorne Bradley Scott, it's got a nice ring to it." Ariel smiled. "So we got our name!"
"I'm glad you like it but seriously if you like something else you better voice it before this baby's born." Nathan nodded and kissed her on the lips.
"I can't believe that my cousin, Livia, is already 7 years old. Remember when she was born, she was so darn cute." Ariel nodded in agreement.
"Kids grow up fast, soon Ava and Lucia will be married." Nathan gave her a look and shook his head.
"No, they are never getting married" Ariel started to laugh. She leaned over and gave Nathan a kiss on the lips. There was a creak on the stairs and they both looked up. Ava was standing there with tears in her eyes. "Ava honey, come here." Ava ran over to them and sat beside Ariel and she put an arm around her.
"Mommy, I had a bad dream."
"Hey it's okay, it's only a dream." They all heard crying from upstairs and Nathan got up. Ariel smiled at him as he went to get Lucia. "Listen, do you want to sleep with mommy and daddy tonight."
"Yeah." Ariel hugged her daughter. Ava was a mommy's girl, while Lucia was a daddy's girl. "Mommy, what's his name?"
Ariel looked down at her belly and smiled. "Thorne Bradley Scott, do you like it?"
"Yeah I do. I can't wait till he's born." Nathan made his way down stairs carrying Lucia. He sat down on the couch and but Lucia on his lap. Ava got up and sat between Ariel and Nathan. "Lucia, our brother's name is Thorne Bradley Scott."
"Torn." Lucia said pointing to Ariel's baby. Ariel smiled and Nathan who kissed her on the lips. Lucia leaned over and kissed her mom's belly, Ava doing the same. "Baby!"
"Yea honey baby, he's coming soon too." Lucia clapped her hands and looked up at her dad. She grabbed his face and kissed his nose. Nathan laughed at her and Lucia smiled and did the same thing to Ariel and then Ava.
"Mommy, are Grandma and Aunty Karen and Livia babysitting us tomorrow?"
"Yes Ava and we better get to bed. Us girls are going to go and help decorate the gym tomorrow while Daddy goes and plays basketball with his little friends." Nathan laughed at her and stood up, picking both of the girls up. He grabbed Ariel's hands and helped her up and they walked to their room.
"Ariel, hurry up." Ariel glared at her best friend Brooke as she made her way over to her. She was holding Ava's hand and carrying a box of decorations. Ava ran over to Brooke's little girl, Lola May. The girls were only 3 days apart and were best of friends, just like Ariel and Brooke planned. Brooke also had a little boy, Darien Craig, who was 2.
"Where's Darien?"
"With Lucas playing basketball, so decide on a name yet?" Ariel nodded and Brooke squealed with excitement.
"Thorne Bradley Scott. You like?" Brooke nodded and looked around confused.
"Where's Lucia."
"With Nathan of course, you know if the next baby wasn't a boy it wouldn't matter because Lucia's his little boy." Brooke nodded and smiled. She grabbed her friend's hand.
"Lucas and I are going to have another baby, I'm 3 months pregnant."
"Really that's great I'm so happy for you!" Ariel hugged her friend and noticed something behind Brooke. "Peyton!"
"Hey girlies." Peyton said as she was walked over to them, carrying her two year old daughter Jenny Paige. Ariel hugged her friend and took Jenny while her and Brooke hugged.
"So how's the newest baby coming along?" Ariel asked as she patted Peyton's small bump.
"Hoping that the next 4 months go by very fast and yours?" Peyton asked putting both hands on Ariel's bulging stomach.
"Well Thorne Bradley is the name we picked and he's very feisty believe me. So do you know the sex of the baby yet?" Peyton nodded and the girls waited for her to tell them.
"It's a girl and we already picked the name. River Sawyer Jelyski, we liked the name for a boy but when we found out it was a girl we still liked it. So Brooke, Lucas told me you're pregnant also." Brooke nodded and held her stomach. The girls smiled and continued decorating while catching up.
