“Because I felt bad and wanted to make it up to you and besides seeing you first thing in the morning is always nice.If you want you can, maybe it could help. Just don’t feel obligated to. Yes, we have to name an innocent child. Poor thing, but I think we’ll be good to them. We did alright with naming the cats. Not really, I did find myself interested in the name Heather but I got over it. What about you?”

“You’re right, I am a nice sight to wake up to. I need to go and see my folks for something so I might try and stop at hers whilst I’m in the city, see if we can have a chat. Heather? I’m not keen, I don’t know... Shall we go for boy or girl names first?”

Adeline finished chewing as Jake talking. Nodding her head, she put her napkin down. “How is she by the way? She has to be getting close to popping by now.” 

Nodding, Jake took another bite before chewing quickly. “She’s good, her cravings are insane but other from that she’s good. Nowhere near, unfortunately. We’ve still got another five months before due date, well, closer to four now I guess.”

olivia--easton:

“You sure? I did say no to a cuddle the other night so I could stay up to watch Clueless. Believe me I have tried to tell her in various manners that she should just let me be. You would think she’d know that when she’s already telling me what I can and can’t do for the baby. It might be because of the baby, but you know how she is with me.— Can we just talk about positive baby stuff? Like names! I picked up a name book this afternoon. Want to look through t with me?”

“Yeah that’s true, but I did wake up in the morning with you all cuddled up next to me so that made up for it. Do you want me to have a word with her? I can try and put it in a way that might help? Only if you want me to. Names? Oh my god, we actually have to name a human being. Sure, let’s have a look, are they any you like in particular?”

adeline-morgan:

“Well Jake you’re more than welcome to join me.” Adeline said laughing and sliding the pizza over. “I just haven’t eaten in like 12 hours.”

Sitting down opposite her, Jake reached for a slice before taking a bite. “Thanks, I know, it’s been a crazy shift. I’ve been trying to be healthy at home so Liv eats healthy for the baby, but it just doesn’t cut it after a day like today.”

adeline-morgan:

“It’s entirely okay to eat an entire pizza to yourself. Don’t look at me like that”

“I was thinking how jealous I was that you’re eating a whole pizza to yourself, to be honest..”

olivia--easton:

“She just hates me and enjoys telling me that with the littlest of blows.I also think she likes you now in a creepy way… She seemed very concerned about your needs and appearance. Apparently I’m not worshiping you enough. ”

“My needs are well catered for and my looks haven’t changed since I last saw her. Babe, don’t let her get to you. I know it’s hard but you don’t need that, have you tried talking to her and telling her what this does to you? You and the baby don’t need that stress.. Was this about the baby?”

olivia--easton:

“Thanks for letting me rant about my pretentious mother, I hate when she ambushes me out of the blue. I know I shouldn’t get worked up about her but I can’t help it.”

“Jesus, what’s she done now?”

What the hell is wrong with you? 

I, oh my god, wow.. Are you alright?

finleydanvers:

Four and a half months? — wow, I feel insane not for noticing. Congrats though…. I mean, I can’t say I wasn’t expecting this to happen with you guys soon.

She has only just started to show, so we kept it secret for as long as we could. Thank you, we’re really excited. Even the cats are excited, they started pawing at her stomach the other day.

summer-rrose:

What? Oh my god! You and Olivia are having a baby? Oh my god! Jake, congratulations, wow! How do you feel? Woah, how does she feel? How is she?

We are indeed, thank you, Summer! We’re both good, she’s doing well. The cravings and hormones are leaving me a tiny bit scared, but other from that she’s good. She’s starting to show now as well, so it’s becoming very real. How are you? I haven’t seen you for a while.

quinngold:

Four and a half months…shit…and the hormones, they kick in right away, yeah? So you’re left dealing with the joys of pregnancy with no one to turn to, bless your soul, Sir. And congrats. I’d offer you a cigar but I don’t carry any and I’ve never understood why expectant fathers want to celebrate new life by blowing smoke all over the place.

Yeah, feels like it’s been longer because we’ve waited so long. Not right away, she was a bit more emotional than usual a few weeks in, it got pretty bad around two months, but they’re settling, it just peaks every now and then. She’s handling it well. Thank you very much, I don’t get it either, but thanks for the sentiment.

You sure move fast, dude. 

Congrats. 

We’ve been together for a while, it was something we both really wanted. Thank you, Poppy.

Man, congratulations! That’s great news – no wonder Olivia wouldn’t accept a drink after the festival finished yesterday.

Thank you very much! It is, we’re very excited. No, she’s on her best behaviour. We’re being good, no anti-pregnancy food or drink is allowed in the house. My cupboards are filled with pickles.

“..I-I know..I just thought…I don’t know what I thought. —I know..And I will move on. But I’m also missing Finn…alot. And I guess I just felt lonely.” She gulped harshly looking down but then raised an eyebrow curiously. “..Y-Your..birth of your—-WAIT..YOU’RE PREGNANT? No..No you’re joking, me…You’re…Ugh Bennet why did you keep this from me!” She said excitedly.

“Well personally, no I’m not pregnant. Olivia on the other hand..” Laughing quietly, Jake shrugged a little before letting the grin take over his face. “We kept it from everyone but our families. After everything that happened before, we wanted to keep it quiet before telling everyone. She’s starting to show now, so the secret is out.”

Saving lives and making a new life, way to go Doc.

Thank you very much, we’re very excited. I would like to apologise for my behaviour the other week, but I’m sure you can now understand why.

Matthew lagged in picking up his face and slapping a grand ol’ smile on it. Dammit. Dr. Bennett’s wife was beautiful and now they’ve gone and ruined it all to pieces. Pregnancy did horrible things to a woman’s body which is why he swore he’d never father children of his own. He didn’t want to be the cause of such destruction. “That’s–Congratulations, Jake.”

“Thanks, don’t look too happy about it will you.” Glancing up at his colleague, Jake raised an eyebrow at the look on his face. “Don’t leave your day job for a career in acting, you’d be awful.”

montgomery-austin:

“I’m happy for you two.” He smiled, still curious to know what were the exciting things coming up. “–Wait, is that the exciting news? The new cat?” He took a sip of his coffee but nearly spit it out as Jake asked who had caught Austin’s eye. “–Um, she’s um… Well, it’s not just one person. I mean, of course some more than others– I’m just making it worse, aren’t I?”

Shaking his head, Jake laughed quietly but decided to leave the question, knowing Austin would find out the news in good time. “So there’s more than one interesting person? Dude, you can’t say stuff like that and not tell me who it is.” Grinning at him, he took another sip of his coffee. “I’m working a double shift, this is entertainment to me.”
