READ THIS AUTHOR'S NOTE!

So far, it looks like the babies name will be Ariana. I just want to say that I think that Artemis is a better name. A comment convinced me. The commenter was fantasylunagirl. She said,

I think Artemis is a more appropriate name than Ariana because of their meanings.

Ariana- Lika a beautiful melody

Artemis- Greek Goddess of the Moon.

I just would like to say why I think that Artemis is a better name. The girls are affected by the moon and if Artemis means Greek goddess of the moon, it makes more sense. You're probably wondering why I asked you for your opinion if I was just going to write all this. I wanted to see what you guys would say. I like what my reviewers say and respect your comments. I promise to choose whichever name had the most votes. You can change it if you want. Just say that you are changing your vote.

Chapter 28

Rikki's POV

1 week later

"Ash!" Emma screamed as she ran to hug him in the airport. I saw Bella and Will and ran, or tried to run, over to them. I actually waddled to them. They laughed at my walking.

"Stop laughing at me!" I said to them. Zane was right behind me, making sure that I didn't fall.

"Sorry Rikki, it's just too funny," Will said. Their luggage was on the ground and Will had his arm around Bella.

"You guys must be happy to be together again," I said to them.

"We are," Bella said.

I looked back at Emma. She was making out with Ash.

"Emma, stop sucking his face!" I screamed to her.

She looked at me and gave me a what-did-I-do look.

I laughed along with Zane, Ash, and Bella. Emma didn't meet Will yet. He was in town, but she was spending time with Ash and her family. She just didn't get the chance.

"Come over here," Zane said to Emma and Ash. They listened and walked over with Ash's luggage.

"Emma, this is Will, Bella's boyfriend," I said to Emma. She shook Will's hand and said hi.

"Let's get the luggage in the car and head to the house," Zane said.

"Yes, please! My feet are killing me," I said.

Will and Bella laughed at me again. I ignored them.

We got in the car and the boys loaded the luggage in the trunk.

"How's Zane treating you?" Bella asked me.

"Good. We have fights every now and then, but everything's good after he spends a night in the basement," I answered. They laughed. It felt good to be around my friends again. Lewis and Cleo are coming in tomorrow. I can't wait till were all here.

The drive back to the house was filled with catching up and stories. We laughed and laughed the whole way home.

"Are we allowed to swim in the ocean yet?" Bella asked me.

"I don't think so," Zane said.

"I'm not allowed to swim as much, thanks to Mr. Dad over here," I said as I pointed to Zane.

Zane stared at the road as we all laughed.

"Love you!" I said to him.

"You better. Love you too," he said.

Will then said I love you to Bella and she said I love you to him. Emma and Ash did the same thing.

"There's a lot of love in the air," Bella said.

"That's a good thing," Will said.

We arrived at my beautiful home and got everyone settled in their rooms. Bella and Will were staying in the guest bedroom. Emma was staying at her house along with Ash. When Cleo and Lewis arrived, they would sleep in the bedroom on the main floor. I didn't even know we had a bedroom on that level.

We ordered pizza for dinner and after, Emma and Ash went home. But, before they left, Emma gave us a little wink. She was going to have some fun tonight.

I went swimming with Bella in the pool while the boys watched some TV. I needed to talk to Bella alone.

"I'm nervous," I said after we've been swimming for a couple minutes.

"About what?" she asked me.

"About being a mom."

She looked at me with a shocked expression.

"Why?" she asked me.

"I don't know how to be a mom. I never really had one. MY mom left when I was little. She and my dad fought a lot. I fight a lot with Zane. I'm just worried that the same thing will happen."

"You would never leave Zane. Your tail changed color for him." I smiled.

"I just don't want to mess her up. I want my daughter to be happy with what she can get. Zane wants to spoil her, but I don't want her to grow up to be a stuck up bitch, you know?"

"I'll talk to her if she ever acts like that. I can see it now. I little baby in a crib. She has the little purse with the little dog. Complaining about the milk she's getting."

I splashed water at her and she laughed. I joined her laughter.

"Thanks Bella," I said to her.

"No problem Rikki. I bet Zane is worried about being a dad too. He never had a nice dad."

"He doesn't worry about anything. He just goes through life with a conceited attitude. It's what makes him himself."

Zane's POV

"Will, I'm freaking out," I said to him.

"Why?" he asked me.

"I don't know how to be a dad."

"Why are you talking to me about this? We kinda hate each other, remember."

"True. I'll just talk to Ash."

"Just read a book or something. I don't know. Good luck. Make sure she doesn't come out with your attitude."

Will's POV

Why did Zane tell me about his worries? I'm still pissed at him for what he did to Rikki. He also allowed my sister to mess up the moon pool. Not cool. I refuse to help him. I try to smile when Rikki is in the room, but when she's gone; I hate him and won't listen to him. I don't need to waste my time on him. I'm only sitting here, watching TV with him because Rikki and Bella want to talk. I wish girls didn't have to talk so much.

I still don't get why Zane vented to me. He hates me too. He's hated me ever since he thought I liked Rikki. I'm still mad at him for pushing me at the party. He's a jerk and always will be. I just hope that his daughter will look up to Rikki and not him. Rikki may not be the nicest person at times, but she was definitely nicer than Zane. Rikki had her moments of kindness. I just hope that she didn't make a mistake forgiving Zane.
