A/N: Thank you for the reviews of the last chapter. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays everyone.
It's now Christmas Eve. Maggie and AJ were gonna have a little Christmas party. She hasn't told AJ about her pregnancy yet. She was planning on tell him before their guests arrived.
Maggie was in their bedroom getting dressed. She just stood in front of the mirror wearing just her bra and panties. She turned to the side and looked at her stomach. She wasn't showing quite yet, but she softly rubbed her lower stomach "I love you so much already. And I know your daddy will love you too." she whispered. She kissed the palm of her hand before putting that hand on her stomach. She went over to the bed and started getting dressed. She put on a soft pink sweater and skinny jeans and winter boots.
She went to her closet and pulled a wrapped box out. She went over and sat it on the bed "Babe, can you come in here please?" Maggie called out.
A minute later AJ walked in the bedroom "What's up?" he was wearing a dark blue sweater, dark wash jeans and boots and his hair was braided.
"I thought you could open a present early." she patted the box.
"I get a present early? I must have been a good boy."
Maggie giggled "Well, this is for both of us."
"Maybe something we can do tonight after everyone leaves?" AJ asked as he sat on the bed and started unwrapping the box.
"No, but you're really gonna like it."
AJ opened the box and looked inside. He pulled a tshirt that says world's greatest dad, he then pulled out a onesie that said my daddy loves me. He was starting to put two and two together. He found a smaller box and opened it and saw the pregnancy test. He started getting choked up and tears in his eyes "Are you serious?"
Maggie nodded "I went to the doctor the other day and confirmed." she went over to her purse and pulled out a frame and showed it to AJ. It had the first sonogram picture in it.
AJ got off the bed and went around and took Maggie in his arm. He had tears rolling down his face "Thank you so much." gave her a kiss on the lips before getting down on his knees in front of her "Hey baby, I don't know if you can hear me yet. This is your daddy. I love you so much." he lifted Maggie's shirt a little and kissed her stomach. He let Maggie's shirt go and stood up. "How far along are you?" he asked as they went back into the living room.
"A little over a month. I got pregnant around Thanksgiving. I just found out a few days ago."
"Oh shit, is everything ok with the baby? You were drinking and got into that fight..." AJ started panicking.
"Babe, calm down." Maggie took his hands in hers "The doctor said everything is fine. You can even ask Alexa, she was there with me."
"I'm sorry if it sounded like I was accusing you of intentionally hurting our baby."
"Thank you for apologizing, but it didn't sound like that."
AJ had a huge smile on his face "I'm gonna be a daddy." he leaned over and gave Maggie another kiss on the lips. "When should we tell everyone?"
"I want us to tell Karl. But other than that I want to wait and tell everyone else. Alexa and Mark already know."
"I can live with that" AJ gently ran his hand over Maggie's stomach. "I can't wait for you to start showing."
"Alright you two, stop making out." Karl interrupted them. "Come down stairs, the party is about to start." he noticed something was up. "What's going on?"
AJ looked at Maggie and she gave him a silent ok "Maggie's pregnant."
"Congratulations!" Karl said with a smile as he hugged his sister. "Who else knows?"
"Just you, AJ, Alexa and Mark. I haven't told anyone else yet. And I would appreciate it if you kept your big mouth shut. We are waiting to tell everyone else."
Karl held his hands up "My lips are sealed."
Downstairs the party gets started. Maggie went and got a beer for AJ and a water for herself.
"AJ and I wanted t talk to you Luke." Karl said as him and AJ walked over to Luke.
"What is it?" Luke asked, curious.
"We just bought Ricky's shop Hes retired now. We wanted to know if you wanted to come back to the shop?" AJ answered.
"Yeah, I would love to come back. I miss working with you guys."
"Here babe." Maggie said as she walked up to the guys. She handed AJ his beer.
"You're only drinking water?" Luke asked Maggie.
"Yeah, I'm not feeling that great right now. Thought I would stick with water." Maggie said as AJ wrapped his arm around her waist.
Luke frowned "AJ, I just noticed. Is your hair braided?"
"Yes it is. Maggie did it." he said proudly.
"AJ lets me play with his hair. You don't have hair and my first boyfriend Drew wouldn't let me touch his hair." Maggie shot at Luke.
"Speaking of Drew." Karl said as he pointed to the front door of the bar where Drew and his fiancee just walked in.
Maggie turned round and smiled "Hey Drew. Who's this?"
Drew smiled and hugged Maggie "Maggie, this is my fiancee Trisha."
Maggie smiled and shook Trisha's hand "Nice to meet you. And this is my fiance AJ."
The evening was going by smoothly. Maggie started feeling bad. "Babe, I'm feeling sick. I'm gonna go upstairs." Maggie wrapped her arms around herself.
"Do you want me to go with you?" AJ asked as he rubbed her back.
Maggie shook her head "No it's ok. You stay here."
"I'll go with you." Finn said.
"No, really it's ok. I don't need anyone going with me."
"No arguing. You need someone with you." AJ said. "At least let him go with you until you fall asleep."
"Fine."
Finn and Maggie are sitting upstairs "Do you know why you are feeling so sick? Could it be the flu?"
"It's far from the flu." she started softly rubbing her stomach. "If I tell you something you have to promise you won't say anything to anyone."
"I promise. What is it." Finn turned his body towards Maggie, giving her his full attention.
"That's great. Congratulations." Finn had a huge smile and hugged Maggie.
"Thank you."
"I won't say anything." Finn said "I call role of uncle."
Maggie giggled "This baby is gonna have a lot of aunts and uncles"
The party didn't last too much longer and AJ was back upstairs with Maggie. They were in bed. AJ softly rubbing Maggie's stomach. He would even give her stomach kisses. It didn't take long for Maggie to fall asleep. "I have waited so long for you baby. Please stay in mommy's tummy." he gave another kiss "I hope you're a little girl and you look exactly like your mommy. I'll protect you and care for you and love you for ever. Good night baby, I'll talk to you every night."
