It was the night of Cirrus' child's baby shower and it was going off without incident. There was diaper changing games, many baby gifts, most of them being gender neutral since Cirrus wanted to find out on the day it was born, and lots of money going around, betting on the baby's gender with Blake holding the money which at the end was 50,000 Ninjagins which will have to be split in many cuts once the baby is born. The party went on for hours until it was time for them to leave.
At the gates, Blake was waving to Dareth. "Thanks for the blanket, Darren." He said. "I'm sure the baby will love it." He then closed the gates just as Dareth was about to remind him of his name before heading back inside.
In the kitchen, Cirrus sighed as she was sitting at the table, looking at the money while the other Ninja and P.I.X.A.L. were cleaning up. "Oh, I almost wish we could keep this money." She said before swiping an oyster and slurps it.
Blake came up behind her and knelt down to wrap his arms around her. "We could, sweet cloud, but it is betting money."
"Ooh, the start of my third trimester is killing me."
"Hey..." Blake moves his left arm towards her foetus to rub it. "You know, your mommy is being difficult."
Cirrus soon chuckled and slaps his hand. "Stop."
"You make me stop." They chuckle before they prepare to kiss, only for Cirrus to back away at the last minute, exhaling as she did so. "What?"
"I think it kicked."
"Did it?" She brings his arm back to her foetus to touch it so he could feel another kick. "That's your kid."
"Our kid, Blake. Which is why, when he or she is born, they're having Borg as they're last name, not Cloud."
"They would be thrilled."
"Hey, what's got you making Blake slack off cleaning up, Cirrus?" Lloyd asked, passing by.
"Isn't my boyfriend allowed cuddle me, Lloyd?" She asked.
"She just felt the baby kick." Blake said.
This got everyone's attention. "Wait, it kicked?" Nya asked.
"She is 6 months and a week pregnant." Zane replied. "It is customary to feel it kick at that period."
"Aw, wish we could have felt it." Jay said, leaning on Cole's shoulder.
"Well, maybe it could kick at your request, if you want to feel it." Cirrus replied.
With that answer, Lloyd, Kai, Jay, Zane, Cole, Nya, Geoff, Gewuji and Maggie each took turns to feel a baby kick, even P.I.X.A.L, Dragon, Misako and Tania when they came in at different points. "Okay, I think that's enough for this one." Blake said, getting up and started to lift Cirrus up, bridal style.
"Ooh, be a little gentle." She replied.
"I know." Once she was on her feet, Blake started to lead Cirrus down the hallway to turn in for the night, as the others do so as well.
Placing her down in bed, Blake grabbed her night shirt as she started to take off her clothes. "Blake, I've been thinking."
"About what?"
"Well, with how I look right now, I think I should have a change in wardrobe."
"Really?"
"Just for a while, until the baby is born."
"Actually, I thought of that before you, and was planning to ask you about it."
"Guess we've both been thinking behind our backs."
"And I bought something for when you do make up your mind. Be right back." Blake immediately darted out of the room. Within seconds, he came back with a bag and placed it down in front of her. "Go ahead."
Cirrus placed her hands in the bag and stood up, getting out what looked like a muumuu, lining done in silver and pink triangles, surprising her. "Wow, it's beautiful. It even has your primary colours on it."
"I was gonna go for a cream one, but they didn't have any."
"Hey, I don't care. I'm just glad you got me something until this bundle is out of me." Cirrus moved to Blake and presses her lips on his before moving back and they smile at each other.
"Good night, babe." Blake soon walked out of the room as Cirrus looked at the muumuu, smiling.
