A/N: This chapter is just basically fluff so enjoy :)
"Pete!" Addison yelled for the fifth time that morning from the bathroom. "Pete! Get up!"
"I am," he called back quietly. "In five minutes."
"Right." Addison walked into the bedroom and placed her hands on her hips. "If you don't get out of bed this instant then I'm going to this scan alone and you won't know the sex of this baby until they're born and I will torment you with that knowledge for the next four months," she threatened.
Pete sighed loudly and gave in, slowly sitting up in bed. "I'm not the one who was craving French fries at two am and you're not the one who went to get them."
"Fine, stay in bed and I'll torment you with the knowledge for the next four months." She turned and made her way back into the bathroom.
"I'd find out anyway," he mumbled before he shifted to the edge of the bed and reached for his clothes.
"I'm not forcing you to come." Addison appeared in the doorway once more. "If you don't want to come, then don't."
"Of course I want to come." Pete rolled his eyes at her as he put on his jeans. "It's just an early appointment."
"Well, that's because I have patients." She looked at him before she made her way over to her closest where she pulled out a pair of cream trousers and a purple flowing top.
"So do I." He pulled his shirt over his head before he walked into the bathroom.
Nearly an hour later, Addison was lying back on an exam table as Naomi squirted the cold gel onto the round swell of her stomach. Pete was stood next to the table and watched Naomi move the monitor closer before taking hold of the wand. Addison turned her head and bit down on her bottom lip slightly as she waited for the image on the screen to change.
"Let's take a look and see if we have a good angle today." Naomi smiled as she placed the wand on her small bump and turned to the monitor as well.
"I hope we do," Addison whispered and took hold of Pete's hand. He covered her hand with both of his and linked their fingers together as he watched the screen. The whole room seemed to hold its breath as Naomi moved the wand to the right angle.
"Well." Her lips curved into a grin as she found a good picture and she turned her head to look at Addison. "See what we've got there?"
Addison gasped and tears filled her eyes. "A little girl," she whispered. "We're having a girl."
"We are?" Pete titled his head as he looked at the screen and a smile spread across his lips.
"A girl." Addison gazed in awe at the screen.
"We're having a girl," he spoke softly and grinned as he lifted Addison's hand to place a kiss on it.
"It's amazing. We're having a daughter. A little girl."
"I know. Imagine all the ways I can spoil her rotten." Pete smiled as he looked at the screen before his gaze moved to Addison and he brushed some hair behind her ear. "I bet she'll look just like you."
"I hope she has your eyes." She smiled back.
He grinned happily and kept hold of her hand as he looked at the screen in awe. "I can't believe we finally know."
"A little girl," Addison whispered and looked back at the screen as well.
Naomi smiled as she watched them before she wiped the gel off Addison's stomach. "I'm so happy for you guys. I'll get you each a copy of the picture."
"Thanks, Nae." Addison couldn't wipe the grin off her face as she sat up. Pete smiled and helped her off the exam table. She turned her head and continued to grin at him. "We're having a daughter."
"I know." He smiled back at her and took hold of her hands once more. "I can't believe it."
"It's just so amazing. We're going to have a little girl. Oh! I can buy dresses!" Her grin grew.
"You can." Pete grinned. "We can make her room pink and I can build her a doll house."
"And we can take her to dance when she's older."
"Maybe she'd like to play basketball instead."
"I hope not." Addison straightened her top out as they waited for Naomi to get them their photos.
"I have to get to the hospital. Do you want me to come over again tonight?" Pete watched her.
"Sure." She nodded. "I'll make dinner. Bring desert."
"Okay, I'll see you tonight then." He leaned down to kiss her cheek. Addison smiled softly and watched him leave before she turned to face Naomi.
"Here you go." She handed her the pictures.
"Thanks, Nae." Addison looked down at the scan photos of her baby girl.
"He's really excited." Naomi smiled softly as she thought of Pete's reaction to the scan.
"We both are." Addison nodded. "We can't wait to meet her."
"You're going to be great parents."
"You think so?" She smiled happily at her friend.
"You will." Naomi nodded. "I know you will."
"I hope so. I want this baby to have what Pete and I didn't have growing up."
"They will." She smiled softly. "You'll be an amazing mum and Pete will be just as amazing as a dad. I should get to my patient, do you want to have lunch?"
"That sounds good." Addison nodded. "Italian?"
"Perfect." Naomi smiled. "I'll see you then."
That night after Pete and Addison had finished dinner, they made their way into Addison's living room. She lay back on the couch with her feet on Pete's lap. He instinctively took hold of her feet and began to massage them softly as he leaned his head back.
"Should I stay tonight?"
Addison nodded and closed her eyes as she felt her body relax under his touch.
Pete smiled softly and continued to massage her feet before he looked at her small bump. "Is she kicking?"
"She's always kicking." Addison smiled softly and opened her eyes to look at him.
"Can I?" He motioned to her stomach with one of his hands.
"Of course. You don't have to ask me."
Pete carefully placed his hand on her bump and moved it around until he found the spot their daughter was kicking and his lips curved into a smile.
"She likes you," Addison spoke softly as she watched Pete's face. "She already loves her daddy."
"What makes you think that?" He turned his head to look at her.
"Because she always responds to your voice and touch." She smiled.
"She does?" Pete smiled and looked back at her bump. "Do you think she would listen if I talked to her?"
"Yes." Addison nodded. Pete caressed the spot where their baby was kicking and hesitated slightly before he leaned closer to Addison's stomach. Her lips curved into a smile and she titled her head to the side as she watched Pete.
"Hey baby girl." His voice was soft as he spoke. "It's me, your daddy." The baby gave an extra hard kick and they both felt her shift her position. "Was that you saying hi?" Pete smiled. "You're a very active little girl, aren't you?"
"We won't be able to keep up with her," Addison murmured softly.
"Hmm, yeah." He smiled softly and ran his fingers over the fabric of her shirt. Their daughter gave another kick against Pete's hand which made both him and Addison laugh softly. "I think she agrees." Pete smiled.
"We should start thinking of names soon." Addison looked at Pete. "Do you have any in mind?"
"I haven't really thought about that yet," he admitted.
She nodded. "I want something different."
"Something different." Pete thought about it. "I've always liked Hailey or Chloe. And Haven."
Addison pondered over the names for a while. "What about Skyler? Or Deanna? Or Brooklyn?"
"Hmm, I think I like Deanna."
"We should start a list," Addison mused.
"A list sounds good." Pete nodded. "We could also get one of those books."
"We should," she agreed. "What about Caitlyn, or Sienna, or Tara or Montana?"
"I like them. I also like Scarlet and Alba."
"Me too. There are so many to choose from." She sighed.
"There are, but we still got a couple of months to decide."
"They'll go by so fast." Addison looked at Pete. "We'll be parents before we know it."
"We'll be prepared." He looked back at her. "Don't worry."
"I don't feel prepared," she admitted quietly.
"There wasn't much to be done so far. But now that we know it's a girl we can start buying stuff, we can do her room and we'll find a name."
"I was thinking the room next to mine would be the nursery. What do you think?"
Sure." Pete nodded. "That makes sense."
"Although," she smiled sheepishly, "she won't be sleeping in there for a while."
"Yeah." He gave a small smile.
"I don't think I'd be able to sleep at first with her being so small and in a different room to me at night."
"Yeah, I guess it would be nice to have her with you."
Addison nodded as she looked at him.
"I'll turn my guest room into a room for her as well."
"We should start buying two of everything," she mused. "Two cribs, two car seats, two buggies, two changing tables, two everything."
"Yeah." Pete nodded. "Probably."
"Probably? We'll need a car seat for each car. We'll each need a buggy. Perhaps we should get a pram too so she can lie out. She'll need a crib in both houses, plus a changing table. Oh, and all her clothes."
"We'll just go shopping and order two of each."
She nodded in thought. "Should we decorate the nursery in a theme?"
"We could." Pete nodded. "Like fairytales or something."
"I like that idea." Addison smiled softly. "We could start shopping this weekend?" she suggested.
"Sure, sounds good."
"Great." She grinned. Pete smiled softly and placed a kiss on her stomach before he went back to massaging her feet.
