Chapter 33
Tris nervously ran her hands over her stomach as she looked at herself in the mirror before throwing her grey to black dress over top. She wasn't showing yet but she was nervous. She wasn't sure how Eric was going to react. They had only had sex a couple times and when they had talked about having a family together, it was always later on, a few years down the road when she was older. Now those plans were pushed forward faster than she was ready for. Suzanne had helped but she was frightened of what could happen.
"Are you ready Bea?" Caleb asked knocking on her doorframe. Tris looked over at her brother and wrung her hands.
"Caleb? Remember when we were little we used to play Candor?" Tris asked making Caleb smile. They were slowly coming around to being proper siblings again.
"Yes. Why do you want to play?" Caleb teased as Tris smiled back at him.
"Kinda. A Small game." Tris said as Caleb nodded.
"Alright. You start." Caleb said as he leaned against the doorframe. Tris hesitated for a moment before smiling.
"Why are you so attached to Rowena?" Caleb looked a little startled by the question.
"I guess, it's because she's been through so much and she's improving so much now that she's in a better place." Caleb said after a moment of thinking it over.
"What are you keeping from everyone? You've been off for the last couple days. You scared me when you fainted." Caleb said as Tris glanced at the floor.
"Can you keep it a secret? At least for a little bit?" Tris asked hesitantly. Caleb looked concerned before pushing off from the doorway.
"What's wrong Bea?" Tris grabbed Caleb's arm and shut her door.
"I…I fainted the other day…I found out… Caleb I….I'm going to have a baby." Tris said her voice going softer making Caleb strain to hear her. He was silent a minute as he took in Tris's nervousness and his own feelings. He was already an uncle to Rowena and Vivian, even if they weren't his nieces by blood.
"I'm going to be an uncle? Like for real?" He said after a moment his voice soft as Tris stopped fidgeting as she listened to Caleb grow more excited.
"Yes you're going to be an Uncle." Tris said as Caleb grinned and wrapped his arms around her to spin her in a circle.
"CALEB!"
"I'm sorry I'm excited. Who else knows?"
"You and Suzanne. I'm telling Eric tonight…If he reacts anything like you I'll tell everyone else. I just needed to know that I would have someone from my family on my side." Tris said as Caleb hugged her, Tris's own arms wrapping around her older brother.
"Beatrice? Caleb?" Andrew asked opening the door to see his two children hugging.
"I don't know what brought this on, but if we don't go now we are going to be late." Andrew teased watching as they broke apart and Caleb wrapped his arm protectively around his sister.
"We're coming Dad." Caleb said as Tris grabbed her bag, and they went down the stairs together. It had been a long time since the two of them had been close and it made Andrew smile. Something brought them together, more than Caleb's new acceptance of Vivian and Eric, and his place as Uncle to Rowena.
The Priors pulled up as the same time as Suzanne and Tris greeted the other woman with a side hug, recognizing the look of nervousness in the other woman's eyes.
"BE-TRIS!" a yell came from a car parking on the street as Lynn's and Will's laughter spilled out through the windows.
"Be Quiet Air-es!" Tris called back as she turned to watch the twins get out of the car with Will and Lynn, Dragon parking across the street from them. Suzanne shifted nervously as Tris hugged her friends, the twins pressing brotherly kisses to her forehead.
"How are you Dragon?" Tris asked as he approached.
"Missing your cooking. I think you and Eric spoiled me with meals. And these two are no better." Dragon said motioning to his sons who were grinning sheepishly and Tris laughed.
"You brought something with you too, right Suzanne?" Tris said turning to face the blonde who was talking with her mom.
"Only after you bugged me for ages. It's one of the few dishes Eric liked when I did cook." Suzanne said before looking up at Dragon.
"I'm Suzanne." Dragon accepted her hand and shook it.
"Drake but most call me Dragon." He said. Tris smirked as she led the group into the backyard, Dragon, Andrew and Eric converging at the barbeque making Tris laugh.
"What it is with men and the barbeque?" Tris said as she stared at them, the twins snickering.
"It's easy to do and you can stand and pretend to be useful?" Hades offered as Will smacked his arm making him laugh.
"MOMMY!" Tris stepped away from everyone and caught both girls as they came running over from the grass where they had been playing.
"GAMMA!" They yelled next before running to Natalie.
"Uncie Caleb!" Rowena called as she ran over to Caleb. Tris smiled as Eric made his way over and greeted everyone before wrapping his arms around Tris.
"How are you today Angel?" Eric asked softly his fingers running over her shoulders.
"Better. Are you able to step away from the barbeque to talk with me?" Tris asked softly wanting to let Eric know now before she chickened out.
"Sure. Inside ok?" Eric asked as he rubbed circles on her shoulder. Tris nodded before taking his hand and led the way into the house, once everyone seemed to be ok. Walking into the house, she led Eric up to their shared bedroom when she was over and fidgeted.
"I am beginning to think you are changing your mind about us," Eric said slowly watching Tris.
"NO! No I'm not." Tris amended noticing Eric start when she shouted.
"Angel, then what's wrong? You've been avoiding us, brushing off my concerns about your wellbeing. Tris I'm concerned." Eric said stepping forward and held out his hands to Tris. Tris didn't even hesitate, bypassed Eric's hands, and stepped into his arms, her own wrapping around his waist. Eric closed his arms around her and rest his chin against her head.
"I love you Eric." Tris whispered her fingers tightening on his shirt.
"I love you too Tris." Eric whispered back, his body slowly relaxing from the stress he had caused himself over worrying about her.
"Eric…I have something to tell you….Suzanne and Caleb are the only other two people that know right now." Tris said pulling back just a little but to look at Eric properly.
"Must be something big then," Eric said softly as he looked Tris over. He could see the worry lines around her mouth.
"Eric…. Eric I'm pregnant" Tris whispered her voice shaking with fear, her teeth catching her lower lip, her eyes showing just how scared she was too.
"I found out the other day…Suzanne was with me….I told Caleb before we came over…." Tris trailed off watching as Eric processed what she had said. She could see him connecting the dots in his head and thinking back to the times they had slept together.
"Your super sperm got past my birth control shot." Tris said when he focussed on her.
"Tris….Please tell me you're serious about this." Tris gave Eric a look and placed a hand on her hip.
"Eric I wouldn't joke about" Tris never finished her sentence before Eric kissed her, his arms wrapping around her waist and he lifted her up off the floor, spinning the both of them. Tris had enough sense to wrap her arms around Eric's neck as she kissed him back before they fell onto the bed together.
"Why would you be worried about telling me?" Eric asked softly as they lay together.
"I feel silly now but I wasn't sure what your reaction would be." Tris whispered as she curled closer, a smile coming to her lips as Eric's hand found her stomach and cradled it.
"Well, other than my reaction just now, I would just add more to ask you to move in with us officially. I know we haven't been together long but…" Eric trailed off as Tris smiled.
"I'd like that." Tris said rubbing her thumb over his chest gently.
"Are we going to tell everyone else?" Eric asked a moment later his lips pressing against her forehead, as his thumb stroked her still flat stomach.
"If we tell anyone else it has to be our girls. They came really close to saying what I was thinking the other day. I found out later that night," Tris said, as she got comfortable in Eric's arms, not eager to move.
"I hope it's a boy. That way you can have boy's days." Tris said stirring and looking up at Eric, who was grinning slightly.
"You like the idea." Tris said rolling over properly to look at him.
"I do. So when do you want to tell the girls?" Eric asked shifting a little bit to look at her.
"Bea? Eric?" Caleb's voice called up the stairs.
"In our room" Tris called back as she heard Caleb start to climb the stairs. Caleb came into view with Rowena on his arm and Vivian holding his hand.
"They were looking for you." Caleb said as he watched Tris and Eric sit up, Eric's hand resting on her still flat stomach making Caleb grin.
"Caleb may or may not be really excited about it," Tris said as the girls came over to them and climbed onto their bed.
"I'm going to make sure your friends behave, namely the twins." Caleb said leaving the room allowing Tris and Eric to share a look.
"We have a couple things to tell you." Eric said as he looked at the girls who were curling into their sides.
"Good?" Rowena asked as Tris smiled.
"Yes good." Tris said, glancing at Eric before he smirked.
"Mommy is going to move in. Live with us." Eric said as the girls started cheering.
"Daddy. You said couple" Vivian pointed out.
"Couple means two" Rowena said holding up two fingers.
"That's right." Eric said looking at Tris who was biting her lip again.
"Well….You girls are going to have a baby brother or sister." Tris said slowly watching the girl's faces as the girls got confused before Rowena brightened.
"BABY!" She cried Vivian catching on as they hugged Tris tightly. Eric laughed as he watched his girls curled up together, smiles on their faces.
