so, so far I have 9 votes- come on people work with me. Oh and by the way Simonettefan- I laughed soo hard at your reviews- the one where you said you actually thought Simon wanted 10 kids I was dying!

"Yes air. You two are to become parents." The doctor reported happily after Jeanette's check up. They had a pretty good idea that they were right but Jeanette and Simon had just wanted to be sure.

"Simon! Can you believe it? Your gonna be a Daddy!" Jeanette squealed. Simon smiled at her then said,

"And you will be a beautiful mother! And our family doesn't even know it yet!" Jeanette nodded and thought a moment,

"Let's tell them this Saturday at dinner! they'll be so surprised!" So they walked out of the Doctor's office talking about names and such.

The next 5 days went alright. Simon- though still wanted to baby Jeanette, allowed her to do the normal things she did like work the shop, and such. Everything was basically normal except for the new cravings, morning sickness, sore back and breasts and Jeanette was wore out much easier now.

That Saturday evening. . . .

"So how has your week been?" Theodore asked. He and Eleanore were engaged as I had mentioned earlier but were waiting to be married for at least three more years. (more time to plan the wedding).

Simon and Jeanette shrugged and replied,

"You know the usual- but we did get some good news-"

"What is it?!" Everyone cut in. Dave, Miss Miller, Eleanore and Theodore leaned forward with anticipation, while Alvin and Brittany simply made bug eyes at them. Simon and Jeanette looked at each other and nodded and said simultaneously,

"Dave, Miss Miller your gonna be grandparents, and Ellie, Theo, Alvin, and Brit, you are gonna be uncles and Aunts."

Everyone except Simon and Jeanette's jaws had dropped and they were starting to attract flies.

"Guys?" Jeanette asked. Simon put one hand on her shoulder and the other on her belly that was beginning to grow.

"Remember what the doctor said sweetie- no worrying for you. I know Dave and my brothers always act this way when they're surprised, so know worries for them at least." Simon whispered. Jeanette looked up at him and began to giggle.

"What, you think that's funny?" he teased and tickled her as Miss Miller closed her mouth and shook her head.

"I'm a grandmother?!" she whispered. Jeanette nodded at her and replied,

"But it's still the first three months so I've gotta be careful if this baby or these babies is or are gonna be born okay." Simon smiled and kissed her head saying,

"And we have been, I have no doubt in my mind that this baby or babies will be just fine."

The next weeks were much the same. Jeanette took an easy and Simon handled anything that could be considered stressful.

Soon Jeanette was officially 5 months pregnant and mood swings were now a common thing though she tried her best to control them.

"CAN EVERYBODY TAKE A STUPID NUMBER AND WAIT THEIR TURN, PLEASE!?" Jeanette yelled at the top of her lungs.

See, control.

The book shop had become more popular recently and today they were so packed they had to resort to using numbers in line. Simon flinched when he heard his wife scream, and stopped sweeping to go and help out behind the counter.

"What my wife means to say is-"

"ORDER ORDER IN THE BOOK STORE!" Jeanette interrupted. Simon sighed and began again,

"And by that she means that it's getting stressful and would be much quicker and easier if everyone took a number and waited in a single file line from here to the back,quietly, alright?" There were audible groans from the children who were in line and too used to being quiet, and Jeanette yelled,

"Hey I HEARD that!" Simon face palmed himself and said again,

"Thank you for your cooperation. We will be back momentarily. And he lead Jeanette to the back room,

"Sweet heart do you wanna go home- this is a busy day and I know it can be a bit much. . ."

"Oh sure thing sweetie pie." She replied as though her tongue was coated with sugar.

Control.

Simon smiled and kissed her cheek and sent her on her way home.

"These mood swings will be the end of me." Simon uttered after she left.

"Alrighty, what do we have here?" he said as he checked out the 473rd book today.

And then the next people in line came up.

They were a couple. . .

They had surprisingly furry faces. . .

And were in their mid fourties. . .

Simon recongnized them right away.

"I'm sorry you aren't allowed here." he said bitterly, as the people stared at him in confusion.

"Are you trying to go bankrupt- first your moody wife yells at the whole store then you kick us out when we didn't do nothing!" The man said in rage.

"My wife is five months pregnant! that's enough excuse for her behavior. But yours, I haven't come up with a hypothesis yet!"

"What do ya mean?" the man replied bitterly.

"Oh, like you don't know! You gave me directions to an orphanage!"

". . ." The man paused and he and his wife observed Simon's face closer.

"Need a hint? I was four years old- the worst storm recorded in history besides Noah's and you send me out all alone to an orphanage with my two year old brother and my four day old brother!"

They paused,

and gasped,

and replied,

"Simon? Is that really you?" Simon was disgusted.

"yes for Pete's sake it's your long forgotten son. one of three which you abandoned?"

"Sweet heart we love you!" they replied. Simon was so confused and in rage that he broke into french and began to shove them out of the shop,

"Pourquoi pensez-vous me tourmenter ainsi?! Sortez d'ici, je ne veux plus jamais te revoir! Et si vous venez partout près de ma famille ce jour-là sera le dernier!" (which means

"Why do you torment me so?! Get out of here- I never want to see you again! And if you come anywhere near my family that day will be your last!")

Simon shut the door hard then yelled,

"Keep the book!" And returned to his counter.

He was confused and sad and worried and alert all at once. Alvin and Theodore had come in the shop right as his parents left and they had heard the last half of the conversation. He felt terrible and lied so they'd never look for them. The only peace he gave himself on his way home was thinking of his unborn child or children. And finally it seemed he was at the door to his home. He smiled and walked in.

"Simon! Dear how was the rest of your day?" Jeanette called and Simon walked up to her and kissed her then replied,

"Oh terrible- I missed you so much..." He said and was about to tell her about his parents. Then he thought,

'She'll be so worried. . . I can't do that to her or my kid or kids. . .'

"they didn't start a riot did they?" she joked. Simon laughed nervously and replied,

"No I just was so worried- your back has been hurting lately. I wanted nothing more than to come home and take care of you." She kissed his cheek and he put his hand on her swollen tummy.

"And you, little trouble maker! I swear once you're out of there you are grounded for a month!" he said teasingly towards his unborn kid or kids. Jeanette just laughed and yawned. And Simon began to tease again,

"You listen here little mister or miss- You are waring your mother out! And not to mention the weird food I have to make her! You're driving us crazy!" Jeanette chuckled again to herself and replied,

"I think it get's the point Simon. I have dinner ready." Simon smiled and rushed to the tabled like a small child after a day of playing outside. Jeanette rolled her eyes and gave him his spagetti. She hadn't ever been much of a cook but it was impossible for her to mess up noddles. And the sauce was already made and stored away from earlier that week (a new craving). And they said the blessing and began to eat.

Half way through there was a knock at the door.

"I'll get it." Simon said excusing himself. When he opened the door he was in pure rage.

"What on Earth are you doing here?"

High way to the dangerzone- Ride into the dangerzone . . . for Sion's blood pressure . . . Man I made him Mad in this chapter! woo! What a rush!

Simon: hey what'd you just say? I'm I gonna have to through you out too?!

Jeanette: Oooh- you shouldn't have done that Emma Zippy577!

Me: Ahhhh! *runs away from Simon who has an axe in his hand*

Simon: woo! what a rush! BTW She wanted me to tell you all to review and you are still able to vote on Emma Zippy577's poll!
