Aaron was headed to Emily's house. She had texted him that they needed to talk in person, and she was right. They had a lot to talk about. The babies would be born in about three months and they lived in different houses. How were they going to make that work? Given that they are both seventeen years old right now it's not like they can get their own place. Plus it was good that she had texted him, because Aaron had been about to text her. He has some things for her...for the babies, and he wanted to know when he could bring the stuff over.

Aaron hasn't met David yet and he isn't sure why Emily is keeping him from meeting her dad. Especially since they are about to be parents, but that's not really his place. His job is to be there for his girlfriend, support her in their relationship and through her pregnancy.

Aaron arrived at Emily's house. Standing outside of the front door, he knocks on it and waits for an answer. He's expecting Emily to answer the door, but instead it's an older Italian looking man.

"Oh...uh I'm here to see Emily." Aaron stuttered out, realizing that the man who had opened the door is Emily's father David, "I'm Aaron."

"So you're Aaron. You're the boy who knocked my daughter up." David retorted

Aaron nodded guiltily, "Yeah. I guess I am. Look, I just need to see Emily. She texted me and told me to come over so we could talk in person. Plus I have a few things in my car for my son and daughter, so please just let me in."

David stepped aside, "You can sit in the living room while I go get my daughter."

Aaron walked in and awkwardly sat down in the living room. Derek took Penelope and Spencer to the library, and Jennifer is at a friend's house.

Emily entered the living room, smiled at Aaron and then turned around to her lurking father.

"Um Papá, can Aaron and I have a little privacy?" Emily asked, "Please."

"I'll be in my office if you need me."

Emily rolled her eyes. When David was gone, she looked back at Aaron, "Sorry about my dad."

"It's fine. He's protective of you. I can understand that. I'm already protective of the twins." Aaron informed

Emily smiled and kissed Aaron before they both sat down.

"So what did you want to talk about first?" Aaron inquired

"We need to discuss the name of our daughter." Emily explained, "I like Kira Lucille, but you like Keira Jane. So we need to decide on spelling and middle name."

Aaron nodded, "Okay. Well why do you like the spelling Kira and why do you like the name of Lucille?"

"When I was five years old, I had a babysitter who was like a big sister to me. Her name was Lucille."

"Was?"

Emily took a breath, "She...um...she died when I was seven a couple months before I moved. There was a puppy in the middle of the road and I ran out to save it so it wouldn't get hit by a car...a car came and Lucille pushed me and the puppy out of the way. She saved me, but it cost her, her life."

"I'm sorry, Emily. I guess Lucille it is." Aaron replied, "The only question now is, is it Kira or Keira?"

"The 'e' looks weird to me, but if you want to spell it Keira then that's fine with me."

Aaron shook his head, "No. I choose the boy's name. You can have this one. You are the one pushing them out after all."

"Okay. Now what about the fact that we are living in different houses. We can't sign a lease for an apartment without an adult and I doubt my dad is going to let me move out to live in an apartment with you."

"Yeah and living at my house it's a very good idea. My dad isn't like yours. He's abusive. Hits me sometimes." Aaron disclosed

Emily's eyes widened, "Oh wow, I'm sorry. I know what that's like, but not by my own biological father."

Aaron waved it off, "It's fine. Let's just get back to talking about our little family."

"Our family." Emily repeated, "I like the sound of that."

Aaron smiled, "Me too."

"You know, we have a guest bedroom. Maybe my dad would let you rent it." Emily suggested. She knew that Aaron wouldn't want to be a leech and just live there for free, even though if David said yes he probably wouldn't charge much rent anyways.

"Hmm...I don't know." Aaron uttered. He couldn't imagine leaving his little brother alone to face his father's wrath.

Emily studied her boyfriend's tortured face, "What is it, Aaron?"

"My brother...Sean. He's six, the same as your brother Spencer. And I just..." He shook his head, "I can't leave him alone with my father."

"What about your mother?"

"She took off when Sean was two."

Emily scratched her head, "Okay well in a year you can file for custody if you want. Or you can just take him and we can move somewhere with him and the twins, not telling your father where we are going."

Aaron shook his head, "I'd rather do things right, but what are we going to do in the meantime?"

"We could share custody. Or I could talk to my dad about you quasi renting the room. You would only pay on the nights you stay there and I'm sure you could bring your brother. It would be good for Spence to have someone his age to hang out with. He's not too popular at school."

"I think that might actually work. I've stayed at friend's house for a week with Sean before my father even realised that we were gone."

Emily nodded, "So it's settled then. I'll talk to my dad."

Aaron checked his watch, "I have to get Sean from his friend's birthday, but I have somethings for the twins in my car. If you'd follow me to the car, you can get it."

"Of course. I wouldn't want you to be late picking up your brother."
