Hey guys! Sorry I haven't been updating but, well here it is now so don't complain!

Just saying I don't know a lot about the stages of pregnancy so lets pretend everything I say about the stages are true.

Anyway, this chapter's dedicated to my sister who have officially in love with Harry Potter. So her new name is harrypotterlover13. (she doesn't have an account, but asked for me to call her that, lol)

Anyway, disclaimer time!

Pie: Jerome!

Jerome: The lovely Pieface98 doesn't own House of Anubis, only this wonderful story!

Pie: I guess you like the plotline.

Jerome: You bet I do!

Amber's POV

The next month was a blur. We found out that both Nina AND Mara were about 2 months into their pregnancy. Morning sickness is over for both of them, and just to let you know from my personal experience with James it is horrible!

Anyway, everyone is coming over for Christmas Eve and they will be so happy with what I got them. Mick knows that he has to give everyone my presents last and at the same time!

Patricia's POV

Today is Christmas Eve and all of us (Alfie, me, Nina, Fabian, Jerome, Mara, Amber, and Mick) always go to one of our houses to do a gift exchange. We always end up staying until like 4 or 5 in the morning.

It always goes like this; Once we're all there we sit and talk for a while. Then we have dinner and in between dinner and dessert we open the gifts which always some how goes on for at least 2 and a half hours! We always talk between the presents and we once stayed on one present for a half hour! It was actually understandable because it was Mick's proposal to Amber. Anyway, after dessert the guys go play I think it's poker but I never really understood cards. I hear them say Texas Hold em' but I think it might be the same thing.

While the guys enjoy their poker or whatever, the girls do some more talking and play a game of truth or dare. I know childish but it's actually a lot of fun. After Fabian once again beats everyone one's asses at a poker (we all think he cheats) they join the game of Truth or Dare. Then by the time the game is over it's midnight and we watch a movie. Every holiday we spend together we alternate genres and this year it's Rom-com!

So me and Alfie are in the car at the moment driving over to Amber and Mick's for Christmas Eve. This day means a lot to me, Jerome, and Nina the most and we all know it.

My parents loved me and everything but we never really did anything big for the holidays. Both my parents we only an only child so I didn't have any cousins. My grandparents came over sometimes but I never had any kids to spend time with. This holiday means so much to me now. I get to see all my friends and on Christmas me and Alfie go to his parent's house for another party.

Jerome always stayed at Anubis over Christmas and nobody was with him. We all always brought him presents afterward, but I mean, Christmas isn't about the presents. All he really wanted was to have a family to celebrate with, which he has now. He goes with Mara to her parent's house on Christmas.

Nina only wanted a family as well. She told us it was always just her and her Gran. She also had no cousins. She loved her Gran but she always wanted some other people to hang with to make it a night that wasn't like every other night. She goes to Fabian's parent's house on Christmas and Fabian's parents even invite her Gran.

All of our reasons came down to the same thing, we wanted a family to spend the day with.

We finally arrived at Amber and Mick's. We were the first ones there this year.

Fabian's POV

Nina was very happy as usual. She loved this day ever since we started this tradition with our friends. We were the second ones there.

"So guys what's up?" Amber asked with James in her arms.

"Oh nothing," Nina said laughed at me. I had a bag of presents slung over my shoulder.

"Wait right there and don't move!" Amber said.

She put James in his rocker and grabbed a Santa hat off the mantle she also grabbed her camera and Mick.

She put the Santa hat on my head and took a picture. Then she told Mick to come out of the picture so she could go in. Mick then took another picture.

Then out of nowhere, Jerome came up from behind me and hugged me screaming, "Oh my god, it's Santa! I love you Santa! Can I sit on your lap and tell you what I want? I think you gained some weight."

"Get off me you git!" I said laughing, "If anyone's gained some weight it's you."

"Tell that to my six pack." He said.

"Very funny, but me, Mick, and Alfie have six packs. You have a two pack." I laughed.

"Okay, can we just say that we all have very nice bodies and move on?" Amber asked.

"I think we can all agree that all the girls have extremely sexy bodies." Mick said.

"Not for long." Nina and Mara said in unison.

After that little discussion, we talked a little more and then went to have dinner.

Amber made a roast, tomato soup, mashed potatoes, sausage, rice, and corn. For dessert a raspberry Bavarian cream cake, (who can tell me what movie that's from?), Nina made Candy Sushi, Mara made truffles, and Patricia made special brownies. They had a gram cracker base, a layer of chocolate, a layer of caramel, and another layer of chocolate. (my invention)

Nina's POV

We ate dinner and it was time for presents. We went through them rather quick this year. Mick told us that he and Amber wanted everybody to open their gift at the same time. He handed each couple an envelope and when he told us to we opened it.

Fabian tore open the envelope and took out to tickets to Orlando in Florida! Oh my god, what did Amber do?

Turns out we all got the same gift. Amber started explaining, "We are going on a two week trip to Orlando guys!" she squealed. Everybody was so happy, to say the least. She explained that we would stay at the Portofino Bay and take either the ferry or the biker dudes with the chariots to Universal Studios! I think we'll have fun even if it's an amusement park. Then for the last three days we go to Miami to "chill down."

We leave right after New Year's and I am so excited. We spent the rest of the night doing the usual. The guys played poker while the girls played Truth or Dare. We also ate all of Patricia's brownies.

After about 15 minutes hell broke loose.

"YOU GIT GIT GIT GIT GIT GIT!" Jerome was yelling.

"GET HIM!" Alfie screamed.

"GRRRRRRRR!" Mick yelled.

We went into the room where the guys play cards and Fabian was being held against the couch with his hands held behind his back.

"What happened?" I asked laughing at the sight. Patricia was filming with her handheld video camera.

"Your husband over here has been cheating!" Mick said, "You are so dead!" he said to Fabian.

"Okay, I learned my lesson let me up!" Fabian yelled.

"No no no." Jerome said, "You can't have an extra deck in your pocket and get away with it. Mick, how long have we been playing poker on Christmas?"

"About 5 years." Mick answered.

"Okay, we are going to assume that since he's won 5 years in a row that he has been cheating for 5 years." Jerome continued, "So I will double that which is ten because I want to. And that's ten minutes of payback which translates to ten minutes of tickle torture."

"What?" Alfie, Mick and Fabian asked. Although Fabian's was more of a panicked voice.

"I'm not ticklish." Fabian said.

"Just hold him down boys, I'll take it from there." Jerome said cracking his knuckles.

So then, Jerome tickled Fabian. Fabian was laughing and yelling, "NINA! HELP!"

"Sorry, but you deserve it." I told him.

That went on for the next ten minutes and we got the entire thing on video.

When they finally let Fabian up, he was still laughing.

"You suck Nina, you suck." He said.

"Yes, but apparently so do you. At poker." I replied.

"So, was it bad?" Amber asked.

"Not really." Fabian replied.

"Oh really?" Jerome said. "Do you need us to do it again?"

"NO!" Fabian yelled, "I want you as far away from me as you can get."

After Christmas ended and we watched a rom- com, we headed home.

Before we knew it we were on the airplane flying in first class!

The chairs there turned into a bed and I was exhausted! I wasn't a fan of airplanes and they freaked me out till no end. Fabian knew that. He always had a comforting hand on my shoulder or rubbing circles on my back. Even once when we were in a huge fight on vacation and we had to take an airplane back, he still made sure I was okay on the ride back. Let's just say that, that was when we made up.

I had the chair as a bed and Fabian did as well. He put the divider down between us and he wrapped his arms around me. I smiled even though he couldn't see it.

"You okay?" he asked.

I nodded, "You make me feel safe."

"I'm glad." He said.

"Really," I told him, "Just seeing your face is comforting to me. I love you so much I sometimes think it's unhealthy."

"I love you too." He said, "Just think. In a few months we're going to have someone else to love."

I smiled inside and out.

Amber's POV

James was at Mick's parent's house while we're away. We were going to bring him but they insisted.

I was fine but Mick was worried. He was crying when we left and he was crying now. He kept bouncing his leg and he was shaking. I needed a plan. Then I remember something from Christmas.

I tickled Mick's sides and he immediately came out of his trance.

"Stop! Ams stop!" he laughed.

He grabbed my hand still laughing and trying to catch his breath. I smiled at him and he started tickling me. I just laughed not saying anything because if it was making him feel better he could tickle me the entire flight.

"You like that?" Mick said still smiling.

"If you do." I laughed.

"What?" he said still smiling and tickling me.

"I said - *pant pant* - Mick can't breathe!" I laughed and panted.

"Oh sorry." He said stopping. Nina was laughing next to me at our little show. Thank god our group was the only ones in first class.

"What did you say before?" Mick asked.

"About what?" I asked.

"About liking being tickled." He replied, "I mean everyone likes it, well not tickle torture, but you know what I mean. But you said if I did."

"Well," I started, "You were so upset and I just want you to be happy."

"I want to make sure that you are happy," he kissed my cheek, "And I want to make sure that James is happy."

"He's in good hands, Mick. Trust me." I told him.

He leaned over and kissed me.

"I do." He told me.

Jerome's POV

"What if I'm not a good father, Mars?" I asked.

"You will be a great dad." She told me.

"Well I didn't exactly have a great role model did I?"

"I know you will be fine." Mara told me.

She kissed me from her seat. Maybe she knows, but I don't.

Fabian's POV

"Hey Fabes?" Nina said.

"You know I hate that name." I told her.

"I know I just like to annoy you. But you smile whenever Joy calls you Fabes." She continued.

"It's just Joy and I don't like it when anyone calls me Fabes!" I told her

"Well," Amber piped up from across the aisle, "Joy started the name when they started dating but she was pretty much the only one who called him that."

Oh crap

Nina's POV

"So you lie and you cheat Fabian?" I asked him.

"No, it's just…" he started.

"No, Fabian it's just nothing. You told me you never dated her!" I yelled, "You promised you didn't! And now 5 years later I find out you did!"

"I'm sorry," he said, "But does it really matter? I love you not her!"

I looked down, "I guess not."

I broke down and cried into my hands.

"No, Nina it's okay." Fabian rubbed my shoulders.

"I'm s-s-sorry." I sobbed.

"There's nothing for you to be sorry about, I'm the only one to blame." Fabian said.

"I'm sorry I yelled at you." I told him finally not crying.

"You don't have to be, but it's okay." He smiled.

I sniffled again and another tear fell.

Fabian's POV

Mick was signaling me from behind her. He whispered, tickle her and Amber was nodding.

She must have heard because she said, "I not ticklish so don't try."

Jerome stood over her from behind and said, "Never say that. It doesn't end well."

I just laid back down and smirked. Nina closed her eyes too. I smiled at Jerome, who was still watching, letting him know what I was doing.

I will say one thing. I think Nina is more ticklish than I am. And that says a lot. I barely touched her and she was yelling for me to stop. Amber was in hysterics. She told me that she knew Nina was that ticklish from one of their truths on Christmas. Apparently, Patricia asked Amber how ticklish she was and then everybody used that as a truth. I was laughing pretty hard at this too. But, Nina looked like crying.

"Oh no, Nina I'm sorry Love." I said rubbing her shoulders.

She hesitated a moment. Then started giggling.

"I got you!" she said laughing.

"OH!" Jerome yelled, who was still watching, "Nice one Nina! Alfie, Nina just pranked Rutter over here real good!" He high fived Nina.

I could feel my cheeks going red.

"How did you do that?" I asked her.

She just giggled and smiled.

"I love your smile." I told her.

"Ugh!" Jerome said, "Just got boring." He sat back down.

Then, the PA came on.

Hello everybody the captain has turned on the fasten seatbelt sign. We are starting to land in Orlando, Florida. We thank you for flying with us, and hope you enjoy your time in Orlando.

Nina grabbed my hand. She hated landing the most. I hated the landing too. I wasn't scared I just don't like my ears popping. We finally landed and our vacation had officially begun.
