The Unbreakable
Chapter Three:

A week has now passed since they met their potential surrogates. Spencer and Toby made their decision and rushed into the process of the surrogacy. They were now at the surrogacy office getting Spencer's fertilized egg inserted into the surrogate.

"Thanks for letting us come, Savannah. It really means a lot." Spencer said as her and Toby walked into the hospital room where their surrogate was lying on a bed. Toby and Spencer had chosen Savannah to carry their child. They were now at the surrogacy office getting the egg inserted into Savannah's uterus.
"It's your baby. I want you to be here to watch." Savannah smiled.
"Thank you for doing this." Toby said smiling.
Spencer held on to Toby's hand tighter as the doctor slowly put a long needle into Savannah. The couple and their surrogate watched as a small white egg was released into Savannah's uterus on the screen.
Savannah smiled as she watched Spencer begin to cry at the sight of the egg. She took a deep breath as the doctor pulled the needle out of her and closed her legs.

"Shall we go celebrate?" Savannah asked as they exited the building.
Spencer stopped walking and turned around. "Um, I don't think that's a good idea, Savannah." She said softly.
"Why not?" Savannah asked as she pulled her purse over her shoulder.
"It's just," Spencer began. They had gotten their hopes up before, she didn't want to jinx it.
"We've had our hopes up before. We're just gonna take it easy now," Toby finished.
"As soon as we find out good news, we can celebrate!" Spencer smiled.
"Sounds good. Um, keep in touch, guys." Savannah smiled and went to her car.
Toby and Spencer walked to their SUV. Spencer got into the drivers seat as Toby got into the passengers.
"Do you think this will work out?" Spencer asked.
Toby bit his lip. "I hope so."
"And if it doesn't?" Spencer asked as she stopped at a red light. She turned to face her husband. "What if it doesn't work?"
"It will." Toby smiled and softly kissed Spencer's lips.
Spencer deepened the kiss until they heard honking from behind them. The two of them pulled away laughing before Spencer began to drive back to their house.

"Alright, kiddies. You're at school." Caleb said as he parked his black hummer in front of the large elementary school. He was dropping off Bryn and Aria's daughter, Sophie at school. Aria had to get to work early because it was finals week at the university she worked at.
He unlocked the doors and got out. He went to Hanna's side of the hummer and helped her out. Hanna helped Sophie out of the car as Caleb helped Bryn out.
Hanna held Bryn's hand, as Bryn held Sophie's and Caleb held Hanna's free hand. They walked through the doors of the school and down towards the grade one classes.
Hanna kissed Bryn's head and gave her a small hug. "Have a good day, sweetheart. I love you."
"Love you, Mommy," Bryn smiled at her mother. She hugged Caleb. "Love you, Daddy."
Bryn rushed into the classroom. Hanna bent down to Sophie. "Alright, honey...you have a good day. Auntie loves you." Hanna hugged her niece.
"Love you too, Auntie." Sophie smiled and ran after Bryn.
Caleb held Hanna's shoulders as they watched Bryn and Sophie interact with other students. Once the bell rung, the door closed.
Hanna and Caleb walked hand in hand out of the elementary school and to their car.

They were going to be picking up Hanna's mother, Ashley from the airport. Ashley Marin was going to be visiting for the next few days since she hasn't seen Hanna and her family in a while.
Caleb parked in a parking space. He got out and helped Hanna out. They walked through the airport and waited for Ashley. Pretty soon the red-headed lady came down the escalator. She waved at Hanna and Caleb.
Hanna smiled as her mother pulled her suitcases towards them. "Hi, Momma Bear!"
"Hey, Hanna." Ashley smiled. Caleb took her suitcases as she pulled Hanna into a tight hug, careful not to squeeze her stomach too much.
"I missed you." Hanna smiled.
"I missed you too, baby," Ashley smiled at Hanna then turned to Caleb and gave him a hug. "You as well, Caleb. I hope you've been taking good care of my baby girl and the baby."
Hanna laughed. "Oh, he has."
"That's good. Well, I'm starved!" She exclaimed. "How about something to eat, on me?"
"Sure. I could use some free food." Caleb laughed.
"Well, let's go." Hanna smiled.
Caleb rolled Ashley's suitcases to their car as Hanna and her mother followed behind him talking.

Aria closed her file cabinet in her office. She had just finished grading her English papers from her class. She was finished most of her work and decided to go surprise Ezra in his office. She shut her lights off and walked through the English department to Ezra's office.
She opened the door and found Ezra speaking to a student. He glanced at Aria. "Oh, hey honey."
"Hi, Mrs. Fitz." Erica smiled.
"Hi, Erica. How's it going?" Aria asked as she walked towards the two of them.
"I'm doing good. Finals are stressful though but Mr. Fitz is a big help with everything. I better get going now," Erica smiled at Aria and nodded at Ezra.
Erica walked pass Aria and exited the office. Aria watched her leave and turned back to Ezra. "So, what was that about?"
"Erica didn't understand some stuff about the ten page essay I assigned for extra credit. Lots of these kids don't understand. I mean, you write a ten paged essay about a topic of your choice. What's so hard about that?" He laughed as he closed the door. "So, what brings you here?"
Aria wrapped her arms around his neck. "Well, I just wanted to see you."
Ezra rested his hands on her hips. "Well, you saw me." He laughed.
"Are you busy?" Aria asked removing her hands on his neck. "I can wait til later cause I have some work to finish."
"No, not really. I'm just working on something. "Ezra signaled to his laptop.

Aria finished reading the screen. She smiled at Ezra. "It's great. Are you going to try to publish this or anything?"
"I'm not sure yet," Ezra said closing the laptop. "So, how has your day been?"
"My student, Derek only hit on me once today so that's great. But it's been a pretty simple day. I've just been grading papers, that's all."
"Oh. So, wanna grab some lunch?" Ezra asked putting his laptop back on his desk.
"I guess. Mrs. Marin is in town, I was thinking we should go to Hanna's tonight to hang out." Aria said as they walked through the university.
"That sounds nice. So how's Hanna? I haven't seen her in a while." Ezra asked.
"She's good. She's honestly so good at being pregnant. She's still cheerful, calm and happy.."
"Yet when you were pregnant you wanted to tear everyones heads off. Except, Hanna." Ezra laughed.
"Shut up!" Aria laughed. "Hanna and I were both pregnant, okay?"
"Her baby room is astonishing." Ezra said as they reached his car and got in.
"I know. Spencer really outdone herself, hey?" Aria smiled.
"Yeah." Ezra smiled as he drove away from their work.

"Micah, Hanna invited us over to her house tonight for dinner with Mrs. Marin." Emily told her husband as he finished putting away the groceries.
Emily and Micah had just gotten home from grocery shopping. Penelope was still sleeping in her carrier on the table.
"Are we going?" He asked closing the fridge.
"Of course. I haven't seen Mrs. Marin in such a long time," Emily smiled. "I can't wait to see her."
"Okay. We'll go," Micah picked up his phone and read through his text messages. "Um, what time is it at?"
"Just like six til nine or something like that." Emily said.
"Good. My dad needs me to go take care of something at work. I'll be home in like two hours." Micah said.
Emily sighed. "I was hoping we can go for a walk around for a while."
"Honey, please. I'll try to get off early and we can walk to Hanna's?" He suggested.
Emily laughed. "Micah, Hanna lives across town. I am not walking there," She wrapped her arms around her husband. "Just go to work. It's alright."
"Are you sure? I can tell my dad I'm not doing it if you don't want me to." Micah protested.
Emily smiled. Micah was her dream guy. She always thought she would end up with a woman but when Micah and her eyes met, she knew they were made for each other. He was always so sweet and was willing to do everything for her.
"It's okay," Emily pulled him into a loving kiss.
"Thanks." Micah smiled as he touched her cheek, pulling away.
"I'll be ready when you get back, okay?" Emily let go of him and pointed to the door. "Have fun."
"I love you, Emily." He smiled as he picked up his car keys.
"I love you too."

Emily stared into the mirror that was hanging in her closet upstairs. Micah renovated the attic into a his and her's closet. Emily smiled at herself. For someone who just gave birth a month ago, she looked alright.
She was wearing a long dark blue dress and a pair of sandals. Her dark brown hair was in a ponytail and she her makeup was simple. Penelope was wearing a white dress with a pink ribbon and a black bottom. She was wearing a pink headband with a black flower in the middle. Micah was getting ready in the bedroom. He was going to be wearing jeans, and a sweater vest.
"Em, you ready? Micah asked coming upstairs. His eyes fell on his wife. "You look, wow."
Emily smiled. "Thanks, you look handsome in that sweater."
"I know," Micah grinned. "No, I'm joking but holy shoot, you're beautiful."
"Thanks, babe." Emily planted a soft kiss on his cheek before heading downstairs with Penelope.
Micah carried Penelope's car seat outside to Emily's black terrain. Emily came out moments later holding Penelope's diaper bag and she put on a long white cardigan.
"Let's go." Emily smiled.

Hanna knocked on the door of the guest bedroom. She was hoping her mother would be ready by now since her friends would be at her house in ten minutes. "Mom, you ready?" Hanna asked.
Ashley opened the door. "Yes, honey, I'm ready."
"Well, come on," Hanna smiled. She looked at her mother's outfit. "You look nice, Mom."
Ashley was wearing a pair of white pants, a black satin blouse and a pair of black heels. Her red hair was down.
"Thanks, sweetie. You look nice too." Ashley rubbed Hanna's baby bump.
Hanna was wearing a very stylish peach colored maternity dress with one sleeve, a necklace and a few bracelets. She was also wearing a pair of brown sandals and her hair was down.
"Thanks, Mom," Hanna smiled. She heard the door bell ring.
"I bet you that's Spencer!" Ashley laughed. "I'm gonna go check on dinner, sweetie. Answer the door."
"Even in my own house you boss me around," Hanna joked. "I'm kidding. Okay."

Hanna walked through the house to the front door. She opened it and Spencer and Toby were standing there. Spencer was wearing a casual outfit; a pair of black leggings, a black tanktop and a grey cardigan. She was also wearing grey flats and her hair was in a side ponytail. Toby was wearing a pair of jeans and a dress shirt.
"Hi, Hanna!" Spencer exclaimed as she hugged her pregnant friend.
"Hi, Spence," Hanna pulled away. She gave Toby a small hug. "Hi, Toby."
The Cavanaugh's followed Hanna into the kitchen.
"Spencer, hi." Ashley smiled as she came over.
"Mrs. Marin," Spencer hugged Hanna's mother. "I missed you."
"I missed you guys too," Ashley hugged Toby. "Hi, Toby."
"Mrs. Marin." Toby nodded.

The rest of Hanna's friends arrived and were greeted by Ashley with hugs. They all gathered in the family room while dinner cooled off. They just caught up with each other and had a great time.
"Oh my God, Emily. Penelope is so gorgeous." Ashley smiled as Emily handed her daughter to her.
"Thanks." Emily smiled.
Micah handed Emily a glass of water and returned to the couch where he was talking to Ezra and Toby. Caleb was playing with Bryn and Sophie in the back yard with Spencer. Hanna was talking to Aria on the other couch.
Caleb, Bryn and Sophie entered the family room and was followed by Spencer. "So, dinner's probably cooled off by now." He smiled.
"You're right, Caleb. I'll go place them in the dining room. You guys just go sit down. Spencer, you can help me right?" Ashley smiled. She never really liked cooking but she cooked whenever she came over to Hanna's house.
"Of course. Toby can help too.
The girls and their husbands and the kids obeyed and sat in the dining room. Penelope sat in her stroller beside Emily and Micah.

"So, Toby and I have some great news." Spencer smiled.
"What is it?" Ashley asked.
"Well, we went earlier today and got the egg placed in Savannah. We should get the news by next week if she's pregnant." Spencer said.
Everyone at the table began to clap.
"That's wonderful, Spencer. I'm so happy for you." Hanna smiled.
"Yay, Auntie Spencer's gonna have a baby!" Bryn smiled.
"Thanks, guys." Spencer grinned as she held onto Toby's hand.
They all enjoyed their dinner catching up and spending time together. Everyone was always happy whenever Ashley Marin was in town.

"Night, Mom." Hanna smiled from the doorway of the guest bedroom.
Ashley got into the bed. "Night, sweetheart. Sleep tight."
"I love you." Hanna said softly before closing the door and heading down the hall to her own bedroom.

Caleb was already laying in bed on his laptop. He looked up when Hanna entered the room dressed in her short light pink maternity nightie.
"Hey," He closed his laptop. He placed it on the bedside table. "You ready for bed now?"
"Yeah, I'm tired. Hosting a dinner at thirty-six weeks is tough. You gotta work tomorrow?" She asked laying in bed.
"No. I have the day off. Why?" Caleb asked.
"I was thinking we can have a movie day. Emily offered to watch Bryn for the day. I just feel like we haven't really been spending much time together." Hanna confessed as she reached over to shut off her bedside lamp.
"I know. I'm sorry. We can have a movie day tomorrow, baby," Caleb pulled his pregnant wife closer to him. "But now, let's just go to bed."
"Okay. I love you." Hanna said softly.
"You too." Caleb said yawning.
