Hey guys! I am feeling slightly betterish which is good, but my update schedule is still gonna be pretty weird and thrown off for the next couple weeks. I would make up a reasonable excuse for this, but it's actually because I'm going to be on spring break. This means college visits with my dad, and I have to do those, right? I'll still try my best because I love doing this. Also, I just put another chapter up on my other story "Across the Fence" please read that and let me know what you think. Also, thank you for reading this, and let me know what you think about this as well. Thank you for understanding.

"So Cabe, Happy's dad has called dibs on being Granddad. You want Pops or Gramps?" Toby called as he entered the garage.
"I get to be a grandparent?" Cabe raised his eyebrows.
"Course you do," Toby grinned.
"We are a family," Happy added as she walked past them.
"Besides, without you Nessa would only have one grandparent, and we can't deny the kid multiple grandparents. Every little girl deserves to be spoiled," Toby laughed.
"I want Pops," Cabe decided. Paige entered the room quickly, and forcefully.
"Sorry, I couldn't help but hear," She apologized. They all turned to face her. "You're having a daughter?"
"We are. I don't know why that's so important," Happy started to dismiss Paige and go back to her day.
"Well, we don't have any jobs today, and even if we did you wouldn't be allowed to go anywhere, so I am taking you shopping," Paige squealed. "You're having a girl!"
"You're stating the obvious, and what if I don't want to go?" Happy raised her eyebrows. Toby started preparing himself for World War III. Sure, the garage has seen its fair share of fights. Walter v. Toby, Sylvester v. Ralph, Cabe v. Everyone, but he had a feeling that Paige v. Happy would not be pretty. The girls had the garage pretty evenly split down the middle. Walter would side with Paige. Toby would obviously go with Happy(if he didn't she would beat him up). Ralph and Sylvester would attempt to stay neutral but would be bullied by the women into their separate sides. He didn't know which of the girls Cabe would side with. He seemed to love the both of them equally.
"Well, you're going," Paige decided for Happy.
"I don't want to, and you can't make me," Happy argued.
"I can make you," Paige threatened.
"Right because you're going to force the poor pregnant woman to go out with you against her will?" Happy squinted, and crossed her arms. Paige placed her hands on her hips.
"I will if I have to," Paige pursed her lips. The each turned around and shouted the name of their significant other loudly.
I hate to say I told you so, Toby thought to himself as he stepped a little bit closer to Happy and Paige. "What's up, my love?" He smiled nervously.
"I don't want to shopping, so I don't have to go shopping, right?" Happy looked at him harshly. She had that expression on her face that meant if he didn't agree with she would divorce him, and break his arms.
"Of course," He didn't blink once during this statement.
"I mean we don't even have a place to store baby clothes yet, so it would be unreasonable to go shopping for Nessa," Happy reasoned.
"I got your back," He smiled(on the inside he was running for his life). He wondered if Sylvester, Ralph, Cabe, and Walter were as nervous as he was. I mean World War III was nothing to take lightly.
"Well at least I don't try to force people to spend time with me," Happy shouted at Paige. She had a hammer in her hand, and she had it raised like she was about to bring it down on Paige's face.
"God, don't be so dramatic. All I want is a shopping trip," Paige complained.
"Paige," Walter interrupted their fight for a minute. "I mean it isn't so unreasonable that Happy doesn't want to go." Paige shot Walter a death glare. Walter gulped, "What if you and Happy decided on a time in the near future where you can go shopping for the baby. That way she can mentally prepare and she won't murder you while you're there."
"That sounds reasonable to me," Toby chimed in.
The girls shared a look of, Can you believe them? And then something Toby never thought would happen began. Paige and Happy turned on Walter and Toby. World War IV: the unwinnable war of girlfriends against their boyfriends broke out.
Paige and Happy left together about thirty minutes later. Toby turned to Walter and exhaled. "I just. There was no way to prepare."
"I know I'm not good at emotions, but even if I were, who could be ready for that bloodbath," Walter stated in shock.
"They just kept going and going and going," Sylvester groaned as he collapsed into his chair.
"I'm never getting married," Ralph decided as he climbed on top of the table.
"And they decided that we all have to clean the garage before they come back from a 'girls day' out. How is that fair when they caused the whole thing?" Toby asked.
"Women," Cabe grunted.
"It's always fun," Happy chuckled about halfway as soon as they reached the car. "Their faces. They're such idiots."
"I can't believe that they actually end up cleaning the garage every time," Paige giggled. "I look forward to when we do this."
"So do I," Happy agreed. They had tricked the boys a total of 10 times over the past few years. It was always agreed upon prior, and they always made sure to choose a totally plausible situation. Of course, everyone would believe that Happy wouldn't want to go shopping. It was partly because they could get the boys to do whatever they wanted after a fight, they knew who was in charge. The other part of it was to maintain a sense of fear surrounding the women of scorpion.
"Target has the best baby clothes, Happy," Paige started, "And Oh My god! A little girl for me to dress up!"
"I swear to God, Paige. You will leave my child's fashion choices alone," Happy started. Just because their arguments were faked didn't mean they couldn't argue.
"You sure bought a lot for someone who didn't want to go shopping," Toby raised an eyebrow as he helped her carry in the baby's new clothes.
"Well, I decided that even if I dislike shopping our child should be entitled to clothing," She explained.
"Sounds totally reasonable," Toby agreed. She walked up the stairs and Toby followed suit. She placed down her bags in the guest room, soon to be Nessa's room.
He crept behind her and whispered into her ear, "I'm onto you and Paige you know. You may be able to fool Walter and the others, but I know you."
"I am painfully aware."
