Here's the next chapter!


"So how are you going to tell him?" Kim asked Aisha. The two of them and Trini were sitting around the kitchen table at Kim's house, eating

Oreos with milk.

Aisha shrugged. "I don't know. Thanks for coming to the doctor with me yesterday, you guys."

"You're welcome," said Trini. "But you know, it really should've been you and Rocky."

"Yeah, I know. I just want to make sure that however I tell him, it'll be perfect." Aisha sighed, then looked at Kim. She dipped an Oreo into her milk and took a bite. "Are you and Tommy excited about the Bahamas? You guys are finally going on your honeymoon after six days."

"I know!" exclaimed Kim. "Of course I'm excited! I've been packing all week. I just don't know what to wear! A bunch of bathing suits and stuff if we go out and do whatever."

"Wear?" exclaimed Trini. "You were planning on wearing something during your honeymoon? When Jason and I went on our honeymoon-"

"Okay, too much information!" Kim raised her hands to her ears. "Jason's been my brother since we were kids! But seriously though, thanks for seeing us off tonight. Even if we don't leave till morning."

"Well," continued Trini as if she didn't hear Kim. She gestured around. "Look at us. A bunch of married ladies sitting around and-"

"Eating Oreos!" exclaimed Aisha. They laughed.

"So, back to the bigger question at hand," said Kim. "Rocky?"

"I don't know."

"He'll be happy, Aisha," reassured Trini. "Even though he said he's not ready. He'll be a great father. And I think he's ready."

"I know. I guess I just never thought it would be this hard to tell my own husband that he's going to be a father." Aisha glanced at Kim. "Don't you have a song for this or something?"

Kim looked at her and smirked. "The first one that comes to mind is 'Papa Don't Preach'." Trini and Kim burst out laughing while Aisha threw a rolled-up napkin at her. Kim lifted her hand to block it. She looked at the clock. "Shouldn't Amy and the guys be back by now? What's taking them so long with dinner?"

"Yeah, I need real food!" exclaimed Trini. "These Oreos are not cutting it!"

"Could've fooled me!" retorted Aisha, laughing. "I'm the pregnant one and you're the one eating them all!" They laughed as she took an Oreo out of Trini's hand, but quieted down when they heard the front door.

"Pizza anybody?" A voice called from the front hall.

"Woo!" Trini yelled. She jumped off her stool and ran to the hall.

Kim looked at Aisha. "Bout time! Why does it even take five people to pick up some people?"

Aisha laughed as Trini, Tommy, Jason, Rocky, Adam, and Amy walked into the kitchen, holding a number of pizza boxes and plastic bags. "Bout time!" repeated Kim. "Did you guys stay there and eat the pizza, too? Don't forget about us-we haven't eaten yet!" She eyed Rocky suspiciously as Trini, Rocky, Adam, and Amy placed the bags on the counter while Jason and Tommy laid the pizzas on the table.

Rocky made a face at Kim. "I did no such thing!"

"It was that grocery store stop that took us so long!" exclaimed Amy. "I was just gonna run in and buy some plates and soda. But no, first why did five people have to go? It took us like, 20 minutes to finally get a cart and then Rocky, Adam, and Jason insisted that we go through every single aisle!"

"But hey," said Adam, tossing something at Kim, Aisha, and Trini. "We got you guys some Raisinets, Kit Kat, and Skittles." The three of them caught their respective bags of candy.

"AND," added Rocky, excitedly. "We have ICE CREAM!" He held up a carton of mint chocolate chip. "And WAFFLE BOWLS!" In his other hand, Rocky held up a box of waffle bowls. Tommy and Amy looked at each other and rolled their eyes. Rocky pulled out other cartons of ice cream and started putting them in the freezer. Amy started passing out plates to everyone.

"Okay," said Trini. "All is forgiven, then." She held up and shook her bag of Skittles, eating them one at a time. She took a plate from Amy and closed her bag of Skittles.

"It took them like...another 20 minutes to figure out what flavor they wanted," Amy said. "Then they just decided to buy all the flavors they wanted. That's why there's a crap load of ice cream!" She gestured toward Tommy who was pulling out a couple of slices of pizza and putting it on his plate. "And Tommy wasn't helping anything, either!"

Tommy raised one of his hands in mock surrender. "Sorry, but somebody had to fight for some cookies 'n' cream!" He pointed to Rocky, Jason, and Adam. "They're over there trying to decide why the double chocolate was better and all."

Everyone laughed as they followed each other around the table, each taking a slice or more for themselves. "We better finish all that ice cream tonight or you guys are taking it home," said Kim. "I don't want to come back in two weeks to-"

"Frozen ice cream?" said Rocky in disbelief. "What else is it gonna be?" He laughed. "Kimberly Hart-Oliver, I will personally make sure that the ice cream does not stay in your freezer."

They sat around the living room, eating their pizza and exchanging small talk. Trini eyed Kim and the two of them set down their plates and walked back to the kitchen.

"I know that look, Trini Scott. You have a plan."

Trini smiled. "Yeah, I do. Do you have paper and a pen?"

Kim pointed to a drawer. "Why?" She opened the drawer and pulled out a tablet of paper and a pen.

"Let's play charades." Trini pulled out a small plastic bowl from the cabinet.

"Why?"

Trini gave Kim a look. "Don't you want to be here when Aisha tells Rocky?" Trini took the pen from Kim's hand and started writing. She carefully ripped the sheet before showing it Kim.

"Uh, well, I don't mind being here when Aisha tells Rocky, but considering how nervous she's been about telling him, shouldn't they do it in private or something?"

Trini widened her eyes. "Yeah, but it'd be more fun if it's in front of us!"

Kim shook her head, smiling. "You're horrible." She looked at the small piece of paper in Trini's hand. " 'We're having a baby.' " Kim looked at Trini. "What if someone other than Aisha gets that?"

"No, when it's her turn I'll give her that one." Trini folded the piece of paper and put it in her back pocket.

"Well, I'm still hungry, so..." Kim headed back to the living room. Trini followed her and sat down next to her. She ate with one hand so that she could continue writing with the other. Kim looked at her.

"Come on, you've got to help me come up with some stuff."

"Some what?" asked Amy.

Trini held up a bowl that was slowly filling up with folded up pieces of paper. "Charades!"

"Ooh! Girls against boys!"

"No!" exclaimed Adam. "That'd be so not fair."

Trini laughed. "Well, Kim and I aren't in it, so...you guys figure it out for yourselves."

"I call Adam!" yelled Rocky. He nearly jumped across the table, grabbing Adam's arm.

"No, I call Adam!" yelled Amy. She grabbed Adam's other arm.

"Hey, it'd be three on three, anyway," said Jason. He looked at Tommy. "Looks like me and you, Bro."

"And me!" said Aisha, scooting in between Jason and Tommy.

Wait, no," said Trini. "Aisha, Amy, switch teams."

"What?" exclaimed Amy. "No!"

"Thanks, Ame," said Jason. "Tommy and I really appreciate that."

"No, no, nothing against you guys," reassured Amy. "It's just..." she gave them a pained smile, "you and Tommy are like robots during charades."

Tommy and Jason looked at each other over Aisha's head. "Are you going take this, man?" said Jason. "We're so going to beat you guys. We don't even want you on our team, Amy."

"No," protested Trini. "Come on, Amy, 'Sha, switch teams."

"Yes!" Aisha pumped a fist as she moved couches. She settled in between Adam and Rocky on the couch.

Trini stood up and wiped her hand on a napkin. She finished chewing the last of piece of her pizza and swallowed. "Okay, pick a number between 1-20," she said, pointing to Adam.

"13," he answered immediately.

Trini pointed to Jason, who smirked. "8," he said.

Trini nodded to Jason. "Jason's team gets to go first."

"Anniversary date!" Jason exclaimed, pumping his arms. He raised a hand to pick a folded up piece of paper. Jason stood up and carefully opened it. "Seriously, Trini?"

Trini grinned and nodded, taking the piece of paper from him and handing it to Kim, who was still writing down other charades ideas. Kim looked at the sheet of paper and started laughing.

Jason immediately started making hand gestures around him and dropped to the ground. Tommy and Amy watched him with confused looks on their faces, while Rocky, Adam, Aisha, Trini, and Kim laughed hysterically.

"Falling?" asked Tommy. Jason shook his head vigorously. He raised his hands up in frustration.

"What the hell are you doing?" said Amy.

Jason started scooping the upper half of his body up and down.

"Fish?"

Jason shook his head and started doing his movements with more emphasis.

"10 more seconds, you guys," said Trini between breaths.

Tommy and Amy looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders. "No idea," said Tommy.

Jason stood up when Trini called time and looked at his teammates in exasperation. "Hello? Swimming with dolphins?"

Tommy and Amy looked at each other in confusion. "How the hell was that swimming with dolphins?"

"You could've said that there were three words in it!" exclaimed Amy.

"Okay, it's Aisha's turn!" exclaimed Trini.

"What?" said Aisha. "No, not me. Adam's first."

Adam nodded and jumped up. "All right." He reached for the bowl. Trini rolled her eyes and reluctantly handed over the bowl. He looked at the piece of paper and handed it to Kim, who also looked at it and started laughing. Adam waited for Trini to give the signal and started gesturing to Rocky and Aisha. Rocky moved so he sat at the edge of the couch. Adam held up six fingers.

"SIX WORDS!" Rocky yelled.

Adam nodded. He held up his index finger.

"FIRST WORD!"

Adam rolled his eyes and held his hands in front of him and moved his hands as if he were on a motorcycle.

"Motorcycle?" said Aisha. Adam gestured toward her as if he was saying, "Come on." "Riding a motorcycle?" Aisha said. Adam held up his index finger again. "Riding." Adam nodded. He continued to gesture around until Aisha was able to guess it. She looked at her husband and smiled. "Just...shh, Rocky."

"Okay, Aisha's turn!" exclaimed Trini.

"What?" exclaimed Amy. "Our turn!"

Trini groaned. "Fine. Go." She held out the bowl and waited for Amy to bounce to the front of the room. Amy smiled when she saw what she was supposed to be doing, then gave it to Kim. Amy faced Jason and Tommy and started gesturing around her. A few minutes later, Jason and Tommy guessed what Amy was doing and started cheering for each other. Jason and Tommy gave each other a high five. "Okay, now it's 'Sha's turn," said Trini.

"No, me first!" said Rocky. He jumped up, reaching for the bowl.

"No, Aisha!"

"It's okay, Tri. Rocky could go," said Aisha.

Kim looked up at Trini and smirked. "Guess it's not going your way, huh," she said softly so only Trini could hear. Trini narrowed her eyes at Kim and rolled them. She reluctantly held the bowl out in front of her and waited for Rocky to pick.

Ten minutes later, Trini looked around. After Aisha and Adam finally guessed what Rocky was doing, Jason and Amy had to guess what Tommy was trying to be. When they finally figured out what he was, Trini gave everyone an exasperated look. "Now, is it 'Sha's turn?" she asked.

"Yes!" exclaimed Rocky. He rubbed his wife's shoulders and cheered for her as she stood up, stretching her legs.

Trini slyly pulled out the piece of paper from her pocket and handed it to Aisha. "Here, I picked this one for you." Aisha shrugged and took it from Trini.

"Hey! Not fair!" said Jason, pointing. "You can't do that!"

Trini looked at him and shrugged. "It's my game, I could do whatever I want."

"Oh, I see. Ranger colors run deep, huh."

"Yeah, that's what it is." Trini nodded Aisha on.

Aisha slowly opened the piece of paper and looked at Trini. "No."

"Yes," encouraged Trini.

Aisha looked at Kim, who was still sitting on the floor. She looked up at Aisha and held up her hands. "I have nothing to do with this. All Trini."

"No." Aisha said again.

"Yes."

"Come on, 'Sha," said Adam. "Just do it."

Aisha sighed and rolled her eyes. "Whatever." She faced Rocky and Adam and started gesturing around.

"Hey, Trini," said Tommy, pointing to the timer. "You forgot to set time." Trini looked at him, shushing him. Kim looked up at him and smiled apologetically. She was silent, watching Rocky work Aisha's clues out in his mind.

Aisha pointed to herself and Rocky. "You and me," he said. Aisha nodded, gesturing her hand. He started yelling out nonsense, things that didn't even fit in with what Aisha was doing. "Lion King! Phantom of the Opera! Mufasa! A ghost!" Aisha shook her head.

"We," supplied Adam. Aisha pointed to him and nodded. She held up four fingers. "Last word," Adam said. Aisha nodded again and gestured her hands as if she were rocking a baby. "Baby?" Aisha nodded, gesturing her hands, telling him to come on. "We...baby..."

Trini looked at Kim and whispered, "I really didn't count on Adam guessing."

"Obviously."

Adam jumped up. "We're having a baby!" He looked at Aisha. "We're...you...him..." Aisha raised her eyebrows as Adam turned to Rocky and gave him a hug. Tommy, Amy, and Jason's eyes dawned in comprehension. They grinned and jumped up, hugging Aisha.

"Yeah, man...we got the point. Yay," said Rocky a little surprised at Adam's sudden show of love.

Adam hit Rocky across the head. "Dude, you're having a baby!"

"WHAT?" He jumped up, pushing Adam out of the way and looked at Aisha, whose eyes were filling with tears. "What?"

"I'm sorry."

"What for?" He picked Aisha up and spun her around. "We're having a baby."

"You're having a baby!" Adam, Amy, Tommy, Kim, Jason, and Trini surrounded Rocky and Aisha, hugging them.

"See," Trini whispered in Aisha's ear. "I told you he'd be excited."

Aisha rolled her tear-filled eyes and smiled. "I don't know whether to hate you or love you, right now."


The next morning, Adam, Kim, and Tommy stood in the middle of the airport concourse. Adam hugged Kim and then Tommy. "You guys be safe, all right. Let me know when you guys land."

Tommy nodded. "Yeah. Thanks for dropping us off."

"No problem." Adam waved a hand. He put an arm around Kim. "So you knew the entire time?"

"Adam, I already told you. Yeah. Trini made Aisha take a pregnancy test at our wedding and it turned out to be positive."

Adam laughed. "Five bucks says Trini's following Aisha's footsteps."

"Uh, no dude. I made that bet. I had to witness Trini doing that whole charades thing just so she could watch 'Sha tell Rocky."

Tommy laughed. "I'm not going against you on that. Trini was pretty forceful last night. It's like she wanted you guys to win."

"If Trini had her way last night, you guys probably wouldn't have even played. It would have just been Rocky and 'Sha," said Kim. "I told her that Aisha needed to tell Rock when she was ready, but...she's the new Aisha!" She laughed.

Adam looked at his watch. "You guys better go. International flights are the worse. Love you guys. Be safe." He gave them both one last hug and turned to leave.

"See you, Adam," said Tommy.

Kim waved to him as he walked away. "Keep us updated on what's going on here! Especially since a certain someone is way too nosy for her own good!"

Adam turned and called over his shoulder, "I'm telling her you said that!"

Kim furrowed her brow. "No!"

Adam just looked back and laughed. "Bye, guys!"

Tommy laughed, putting an arm around Kim's shoulders. He picked up their suitcases and started rolling it toward the security checkpoint.
