(March 6) Five months later… (Zak's POV)

The Halloween candy was all but gone by now, I'd managed to save AJ from eating it all at once. AJ had gone to Emily and Nick's for the night, she and Cassidy had a 'surprise' planned. Ah well. Kenzi seemed different lately, more tired and easier to annoy. We were getting ready for bed when the phone rang, about 7:30.

"Hello?" Kenzi asked. "Yes, this is. Oh, no. Really? Oh my…what of the others?" she asked. I started to mouth a 'who is it' but then she turned to look at me, her eyes full of tears. I shut up mid-sentence.

"Okay. I'll tell them. Thank you." She said, hanging up. She let the phone drop from her hand, and threw herself into me, sobbing the hardest I'd ever seen. I just held her, stroking her hair and kissing her. Every couple of minutes she'd cough, the tears catching in her throat as she started a new round.

"Ssshhh. Baby, calm down. Breathe. You do know it's possible to die crying, right?" I asked. She only lifted her head, wailing, "Then I'd rather be d-dead! My g-great g-grandma R-Rose j-just d-died ten m-minutes ago!" And she buried her head back into my shoulder, continuing to cry. Every now and then she gave '-hick-' to catch her breath, but other then that, she was comparable to AJ when she was younger. I kissed her hair, coaxing her to sit up so I could wipe the tears from her eyes.

"Honey, she was ready. She met AJ. She knows about us. She knows you loved her. It was her time." I attempted again. Suddenly Kenzi's hands were pushing against my chest, she was trying to get away from me, trying to lean over the side of the bed.

"What?" I asked gently.

"Zak, let me go…I'm not feeling…I'm gonna be sick!" she said. I instantly unwrapped my arms from around her waist, and saw her lean over the edge just before I heard her. One hand went to hold her hair back, the other rubbing her back. I laughed gently upon hearing her sleepily but agonized moan of, "Oh, not this again….I knew Halloween was a bad idea." Uh oh, didn't that mean something was up? I counted back the months in my head …February, January, December, November, October. It'd been only five. But she figured out she was pregnant with AJ four months in, so…

"Kenzi? Love? I think we both know what's wrong." She coughed, sitting up into my arms, resting her head against my chest, her hands returning to that old protective gesture of resting over her stomach. I grinned, kissing her neck.

"C'mon, say it. You know what I mean…don't you?" I teased. But Kenzi only laughed along, twisting around to kiss me back. She smiled, reassuring what I was thinking.

"Honey, you up for another AJ?"

Just over a second later, the only song that could explian my feelings was Half of My Heart, which was by John Mayer ft. Taylor Swift.

I couldn't believe Kenzi thought she was pregnant again. Well, then there was the half of me that could. I mean, she'd said Halloween started it. And I do remember that we didn't exactly go to bed early that night. And AJ was 4, so she could help with the baby, well kind of. Well, maybe this would work. I nodded at Kenzi's question, kissing her not quite as hard as I normally would before lying down beside her. She curled into me, her knees against my chest, her hands bawled into fists. It was quiet for about two minutes before I realized she was crying again.

"Kenzi…if you're thinking that I'm mad, I'm not. I couldn't be happier. Really." I said slowly, brushing the bangs away from her face so I could see her bright blue-green eyes, shining with tears. She was smiling, half laughing, half crying. Wow. Here we go again, with the crazy mood swings. Great.

"I…I know. Zak, can you believe this? We're gonna b-be p-parents again!"

(AJ's POV)

I was heading downstairs to get a glass of water around 2 in the morning. I always woke up then, I never knew why. I tip-toed past my parents' room, (they were ghost hunters, who knew when they were asleep?) and held my breath as I headed downstairs. The last few stairs always creaked, so I always jumped from the fourth step up. 1, 2, 3..-CRASH-!

(Zak's POV)

What the frick was that? Something fell, prolly was AJ. Again. I turned to look at Kenzi. She was asleep, her arms around me, a smile playing on her face. 'Must be dreaming,' I thought, gently unlocking her arms from around me and getting up to see what had happened. I was right. AJ was sitting on the kitchen countertop, drinking a glass of water. She hadn't realized I was there, so when she finally did, she gave that same surprised 'oh!' gasp Kenzi always would. I laughed, looking her over. AJ's hair was pulled back into a ponytail, her black pajamas blending perfectly in the darkened kitchen. But she was smiling like she knew she was going to be in trouble, her eyes watching my every move.

"I just came down for water." She said, jumping down from the countertop.

"I think you were stalling." I said slowly, leaning against the door jam. I remember how Kenzi always told me how her mom would always think she was 'stalling' if she was up late when she was younger. "Good thing you didn't wake Mom up, though." I added.

"Why?" AJ asked, not even realizing she had already started acting like a teenager. I sighed, "Because, she's not feeling that well and I don't want her to get mad. Are you going back to bed?" She set the glass down, and started toward the hallway. I followed, smiling to myself, thinking, "I am sure she is gonna be able to handle a younger version of herself?" But I didn't need an answer. I knew she'd be able to.
