A/N: Y'all gotta be quicker (and maybe a little more generous) on reviews. All I'm saying is that this chapter could have been up right after the fourth one if there had been three reviews. Just throwin that out there.

Disclaimer: I do not own Degrassi or its characters. I will own a new Go Radio shirt soon though =)

As Paige's due date grows closer so does the conception date for Beth and me, which I'm kind of afraid of. Don't get me wrong, I'm looking forward to having a baby with Beth; I'm just not looking forward to the forty weeks of pregnancy we'll have to get through first. There are two things I dislike about pregnancy, weird ass late night cravings and the hormones that make a woman crazier than she already is. Now you're probably wondering why I'm complaining about this when Beth isn't even pregnant yet, well you see Alex is out of town at some physiotherapist convention or conference or whatever for the weekend, and Marco and Dylan are in New Jersey for Dylan's hockey games which means I'm the one taking care of a six months pregnant Paige.

Knock, knock.

Ugh, not again. I roll over and look at the clock on my night stand. Are you effin kidding me? It's 2:00 in the morning!

Knock, knock, knock!

"Jordan!" Paige calls out my name from the other side of the door.

Yeah, Paige is staying with Beth and me in the condo while Alex is gone. Alex insisted that Paige stay with us because according to her, "Paigey can't possibly stay at the house by herself while she's pregnant." Yeah she actually said that. Ugh, the things you do for family.

"Jordan, I need you!" Paige yells through the door.

"Jordan, answer her already," Beth tells me in an annoyed tired voice.

"Ugh," I groan.

I reluctantly get out of bed. I'm dragging my feet to the door. I open the door and there's Paige standing in front of me with a smile on her face. Hitting a pregnant woman is wrong.

"What Paige?" I greet her in my own annoyed tired face.

"Sorry to wake you hon but I need something," she tells me.

"What do you need?"

"Watermelon."

What the fuck? Maybe my hearing is off because it's so early in the morning. Did she just tell me she needs watermelon?

"Watermelon?" I ask.

Paige is nodding her head. "The baby really wants watermelon right now," Paige tells me while rubbing her stomach.

"Paige, it's 2:00 in the morning and I have to be at the station in three hours. I need sleep."

Paige pouts. "But hon, I'm hungry," she wines. "And I really want watermelon."

I place my hand on my forehead and sigh. "Paige, it's January," I tell her. "Watermelon isn't even in season in this country. It's not even in season in the states, maybe in Mexico though."

"I can call John right now to get a plane ready and we can be in Mexico in several hours," Paige says seriously.

My eyes widen. "Paige we are not going to Mexico, especially for watermelon!"

"Well if you're not going to Mexico then you better find me some damn watermelon somewhere Jordan, or some type of melon damn it!" Paige yells angrily.

"Fine! I will get you your damn melon!"

Paige's angry face instantly turns into a happy face with a smile.

"Thanks hon," she says happily and now she's walking back to her room.

I close the bedroom door and walk back to bed; I climb back into the bed, pull the covers over my body and rest my head back on my pillow.

"What are you doing?" Beth asks.

"Going back to sleep," I murmur.

"But you just told Paige you were going to go get her a melon."

"Yeah, I was thinking about that. I think you should go get it."

Ahh. Why is the light on? I squint open my eyes and Beth is sitting up looking at me.

"Why should I go get it?" she asks.

"Because I have to be at work at 4:30 and you don't have to be at your job till eight."

"She's your sister-in-law."

I sit up quickly. "Hey, we're all family" I tell her. "Therefore she's your sister-in-law as well AND your best friend."

"She's your best friend too!"

"Yeah but you were one of her bride's maids."

"Well you're the one who agreed to let her stay here."

I fall back and my head hits my very comfy pillow. I groan, out of frustration and exhaustion.

"Let me make this easy for you Jordan," Beth starts. "If you don't go get Paige her melon then…" Beth leans down to whisper in my ear. "Nada de sexo para tú," she whispers in my ear, using her very sexy Spanish accent.

Oh, that's so not fair. She knows Spanish turns me on. Fuck my life. I groan and throw the covers off my body and get out of the bed. I grab my sweats and my winter coat and put them on. I walk back over to the bed and lean into my wife.

"Just so you know," I start. "Threatening no sex in Spanish WITH your super sexy Spanish accent is just mean."

Beth smirks. "Not my fault Spanish is such a big turn on for you," she says in a sultry voice.

"Ya know," I start quietly. "When I get back we can start practicing making a baby." I wiggle my eyebrows suggestively.

Beth laughs. "You would have been better off saying "we should have sex" because the way we're making a baby doesn't include us doing what you want us to do," she says.

"Ok, fine." I lean in close to whisper in her ear. "When I get back we can explore each other's anatomy."

Beth smirks. "Maybe," she says. "If I'm awake." Beth gently pushes me away. "So you better go and hurry up."

I quickly zip up my coat and run out the door. Find a melon ASAP means sexy time for me.

1 Hour Later:

I hate pregnant Paige and her damn late night cravings. I just spent an hour, ONE HOUR, trying to find her a damn melon. Do you know how hard it is to find melons at 2:00 in the morning in Canada, IN JANUARY? After going to twenty different stores, seventeen which were closed, I finally found one that was open with an open produce section. I bought apples, peaches, bananas, grapes, and cantaloupe because I'll be damned if Paige sends me out again to get more fruit for her.

I enter the condo exhausted and annoyed. I have to be at the station in an hour and a half which means I don't even have time to get anymore sleep. I put the bags of fruit down on the counter. Man, I'm hungry. I take a banana and peel it. Mmm, banana.

"Ew, what is that smell?"

Paige enters the kitchen with her nose scrunched up and a disgusted look on her face. I take another bite out of my banana.

"Banana," I say simply.

"Ew, it smells disgusting," Paige says. "Hon, I didn't ask for bananas."

I narrow my eyes at her. "I like bananas." I reach into the bag and pull out the cantaloupe. "I got you your melon." I'm holding the cantaloupe.

Paige makes a face. "Cantaloupe?" she asks. "Really hon?"

Is she serious right now? "Are you serious?" I ask angrily through clenched teeth. "Do you know how long it took me to find a cantaloupe? Do you know how many places I had to go to? How much sleep I just lost?"

I'm breathing heavily and my nostrils are flaring. I'm exhausted, annoyed, and angry. Uh-oh, Paige's lip is quivering and her eyes are shining. Oh no, not the tears.

"I-I'm s-s-sorry hon," Paige apologizes. "I-I just c-can't help it."

And cue the tears!

"I know this pregnancy has been making me crazier than I usually am and has given me weird cravings at odd times and I'm sorry…"

And now Paige is full on crying. Oh my God, please make her stop. I can't handle crying, especially a pregnant woman crying.

"And and I know you just got stuck with me because everyone else is out of town," Paige continues through her tears. "I told Lexi I'd be fine on my own but she insisted that I stay with you and Beth. A-and I-I'm sorry you had to go out and buy a melon!"

Oh Jesus, when do the water works stop? Now I feel like a bitch for yelling at her.

"Paige," I call out her name in a soft loving tone. "It's ok. Come here."

I open my arms wide. Paige walks over to me and wraps her arms around. Paige is crying on my shoulder while I'm patting her on the back, telling her that everything is going to be ok.

"I'm not mad at you," I tell her. "That was my exhausted brain being a bitch."

Paige says something but I have no idea what she just said because she's still crying and she said it into my shoulder.

"Paige, I have no idea what you just said," I tell her.

Paige lifts her head off my shoulder. "I'm sorry," she says through the tears. "I'm just so hormonal and I miss Alex."

"I know, I know. And I don't blame you for your craziness and weird ass cravings. I know it's part of the pregnancy, and I know it's my niece or nephew's fault for wanting watermelon in the middle of the night."

"I think the baby is a girl," Paige says quietly.

Wait, what? I pull away from Paige but we're still in arms' length of each other. I have my hands on her shoulders and I'm giving her a questioning look.

"I thought you and Alex were going to wait till the baby was born?" I ask. "You two said y'all wanted to be old fashion and just be surprised."

"We are waiting," Paige says. "But I just have this feeling that we're going to have a girl. I can't explain it."

"That's slightly scary," I say seriously.

Paige hits me playfully and laughs." Why do you say that hon?" she asks.

"Paige, think about it, a girl that has both yours and Alex's genes. Imagine what that girl will be like when she's a teenage. Remember what you and Alex were like when you were teenagers?"

Wait for it. Wait for it. A look of realization appears on Paige's face. Now a look of horror has replaced the realization.

"Oh God," she says.

I'm nodding my head. "Exactly."

o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O

Alex came home yesterday and I am so happy that she did. Paige's crazy emotions were driving me crazy. But I'm also happy Alex is back because Paige is happy. Paige's face at the airport lit up when we saw Alex come through security. She practically ran over to Alex and almost tackled her. Have you ever seen a six month pregnant woman run? It is the most hilarious thing in the world.

Currently I'm on my way to Palex's place. Alex called me about fifteen minutes ago, desperately telling me that she needed me over NOW. I don't know what's going on but I'm pretty sure it's not good. I park my car in the driveway behind Alex's. I wonder what the big emergency is. I open the front door, with the key they gave me, and enter the house.

"Paige, calm down!" I hear Alex yelling.

"No Alex!" Paige yells. "Do not tell me to calm down!"

Oh my God. What the hell is going on? I go upstairs to where I hear the yelling coming from. I enter their bedroom and I do not like what I see. Paige's face is red and she's breathing heavily while Alex looks terrified.

"What's going on?" I ask.

Paige turns and looks at me. "Of course you're here," she says. She looks back at Alex. "Why is it that every time you mess up Jordan magically appears?

"I also magically appear when you mess up too," I say quietly.

"Shut up Jordan!" Paige yells.

Ok, all this anger cannot be good for the baby. I can see that Paige has figured that out as well. Paige closes her eyes and she has begun doing her relaxing breathing and has her hand on her stomach. Alex is slowly walking toward Paige.

"Paigey…" Alex starts.

Paige's eyes snap open. "Don't you 'Paigey' me Alex Nuñez," Paige tells Alex angrily while pointing a finger at her.

Uh-oh, Paige just said Alex's maiden last name. This can't be good.

"Paige, don't you think you're being a bit paranoid?"

Uh-oh that was the wrong thing to say. Paige is totally heated now.

"Paranoid? Paranoid? Do not tell me I'm being paranoid Nuñez!"

"Paige, this anger can't be good for the baby," I tell her.

"You're right Jordan," she says. Paige is looking at Alex. "Get out." Paige turns and looks at me. "And you get out as well," she says sternly.

"Paige-" Alex starts.

"Unless you want me to go into labor early, you will get out of my room."

I'm thinking now would be a bad time to tell her that anger cannot induce labor. Especially when she still has about three months left.

"This is OUR room," Alex tells her.

"No, this room belongs to your paranoid pregnant wife," Paige tells her. "So you two can get the hell out of my room."

Paige pushes Alex and me out of the room and slams the door. Wow she's pretty strong. Alex sighs and now her head is hanging low.

"Calling her paranoid probably wasn't a good idea," I tell her.

"Yeah…" Alex agrees.

Alex and I walk into the guest room. Alex sits on the bed with her face in her hands and groans. I sit down beside her.

"What happened?" I ask.

Alex lifts her head up and looks at me. "Her crazy hormonal emotions happened," she says.

"Expand please."

"Ok so next to the convention center where my convention was taking place there was another convention taking place next door. It was some type of business convention and some friends and I checked it out in our free time, ya know make some connections and do the networking type crap. Well… Sage just happened to be there.

I groan. "You didn't."

"I didn't do anything!" Alex exclaims. "It was the first time I saw Sage since the breakup and I still felt bad aboot it. I never meant to hurt her, honestly I really did love her but my love for Paige was just so much greater."

"Ok, then exactly what happened?"

"Well Sage and I talked. I wanted to see how she was doing and I wanted to know if she hated me. She told me that after the breakup she was really hurt but it hurt even more that I stopped talking to her. I told her the only reason I stopped talking to her was because I figured it'd be easier for her to move on and I got caught up with Paige and our relationship and I just put her in the back of my mind."

"All right, get to the part that pissed Paige off," I tell her.

Alex sighs. "Well after our emotional talk we hung out. We went to some bars and clubs with others from our conventions and you know how people like to take pictures and then those pictures always end up online. Well Paige got on Facebook this morning and there were the pictures of Sage and me hanging out. And then Sage sent me a text."

"What did the text say?"

"It was great hanging out with you. I'm glad we could reconnect."

I whistle. "Yeah, now I can see why Paige is angry."

"I explained to her that Sage and I are JUST FRIENDS but Paige just freaked out."

"Can you blame here though? I mean Alex, you and Sage had a long term serious relationship. You were going to propose to her. Of course Paige is going to feel a little threatened by her."

Alex sighs. "I thought insecure Paige was gone. I mean, we're married."

I place my arm around Alex's shoulder. "We're all a little insecure," I tell her. "Paige is just a little more obvious about it sometimes, plus she's pregnant."

Alex stands up suddenly. "I'm going to go talk to her."

I stand up. "Nu-uh," I tell her. "If you go in there now she might throw something at you, like a hairdryer. I'll go talk to her."

"But she's my wife," Alex protests.

"Yeah, but she's my friend and I think right now she needs a friend to talk to. After I talk to her feel free to go in there but for right now, just wait."

Alex sighs and plops back down on the bed. "Fine," she says sounding defeated. "You get five minutes," she says sternly.

I get off the bed and leave the room. I walk to Palex's bedroom and stop in front of the closed door. I take a deep breath and let it out. Ok I can do this. Paige isn't mad at me, she's mad at Alex; therefore she will not throw anything at me. I knock on the door.

Knock, knock.

No answer. All right, let's try this again.

Knock, knock. "Paige!" I call out. "It's me Jordan. I just want to talk."

I slowly open the door. The sight before me is breaking my heart. A pregnant Paige is sitting on the bed, crying. I walk to the bed and kneel down on the floor in front of her.

"Paige," I say her name in a soft caring voice. "Paige, why are you crying?"

Paige looks up at me with tears flowing down her face. "Stupid Sage!" she cries.

"Paige…"

"I know I sound crazy but I'm not!" Paige exclaims. "At one point Alex did love Sage, she almost proposed to her for God's sake. So excuse me if I become upset when I see my wife in pictures with her former love and receive a text message from her."

"Paige, think about what you're talking about. It's Sage, the girl who lost, the girl who wasn't even invited to the wedding. Are you really threatened by her?"

Paige sighs. "Yes…No… I don't know! What if Alex realizes she made a mistake marrying me and decides to go back to Sage?"

I laugh softly because what Paige just said is completely ridiculous. I get up from the floor and sit down on the bed next to her.

"Paige, how long have you and Alex been married?" I ask her.

"Almost two years," she answers.

"How long have you two been together?"

"Four years."

"Who has Alex's last name?"

"I do."

"And who is going to give birth to a baby that has Alex's genes?"

Paige smiles and wipes away some of the tears on her face. "I am," she answers happily while running her hand over her stomach.

"Exactly, you are. Trust me Paige, it's always been you and it's always going to be you. There's no way in hell Sage would ever be able to steal Alex away from you. Alex loves you way too much."

"Thanks Jordan."

Paige and I hug. It's moments like these that make me happy when Palex calls me. I hear the bedroom door and Paige and I pull apart and look to see Alex standing in the doorway.

"Is it safe to enter?" she asks cautiously.

Paige laughs softly and wipes away the rest of her tears. "Yes Lexi, it's safe to come in," Paige tells her.

Alex walks over to us and kneels in front of Paige. There's been a fair amount of kneeling today. Alex takes Paige's hands into hers.

"Paige, I'm sorry that me hanging out with Sage upset you," Alex says sincerely. "But you have to know that we're only friends and nothing more will come of that. I love you Paige Michalchuk-Nuñez. You're the one that has my heart and you're the one I belong to."

Alex raises her ring finger. "This ring is a symbol of my commitment to you," she says. "And this baby," Alex places her hands on Paige stomach. "This baby is a symbol of our love, a love that has been through a lot but has made it out on top. Don't let my new friendship with Sage shake your belief in our love."

If it wasn't for the fact that I don't want to look like a weirdo right now my mouth would be hanging open right now. Metaphorically speaking my jaw has dropped. If I could right now I'd applaud Alex. That was a fantastic speech. Alex always blows me away when she apologizes to Paige.

Paige sniffles. "I love you," she tells Alex.

Alex grins. "I love you too," she says.

Alex stands up and kisses Paige. Awe, they're kissing, how sweet. Whoa, whoa! Have they forgotten that I'm here? Paige has fallen back into the bed and took Alex with her. Paige has a fistful of Alex's shirt while Alex is using her arms to keep her body above Paige's.

I clear my throat, trying to get their attention. "Um, I'm still here," I announce.

Alex just waves me off. All right time to go! I just saw Alex sliding her hand up Paige's shirt, which is my cue to leave. I get off the bed and walk out of the bedroom. Well, at least they made up.
