"Probably not babe, you're very much pregnant. And by next month it'll be March so you'd be due in two months. BUT thanks to our lovely family. Andrea and Austin are flying in and will stay with you while Taylor and I are gone."

"Austin will definitely want to help you all the time. Make him go for the groceries. Andrea still can't do very much right now, but she'll keep you company."

"Is it safe for her to travel?" Alex asks.

"She can. We cleared it with the doctors. She's been off chemo for a while now." Taylor responds. "She's okay to travel."

"I'll keep her company. Don't worry."

"Thanks Alex." Taylor says with a smile, reaching over to grab her hand. "She has missed spending time with you."

"I've missed spending time with her as well, it'll give me a chance to get to know her more and talk about you two."

"Ladies we're here." Our driver George says as the car is parked.

"Thanks George. Have a good night. We'll pay you for your extra hours." I say as I pat his shoulder.

"It's not a problem and thank you. Have a good night. We'll see each other tomorrow morning for the drive back home."

"Get some rest."

"Thank you George." Alex says just before I help her get off.

"Of course. Have a good night Mrs. Acevedo and be careful, you're pregnant."

"I will."

"Thanks George. Have a good night. We'll see you tomorrow morning. If you're still hungry order some room service, it's on us." Taylor says.

"Thank you again Miss Swift. Have a good night."

Once we got into our hotel room and had changed we still wanted to stay up and talk, so we did.

We all laid in one bed as Taylor didn't want to lay down by herself, Alex was fine with it, so here we were. Me in the middle, the tallest person. My pregnant wife on one side and my sister of a blanket hog on the other.

"Im proud of you Alex, proud of you for coming out and being your authentic self. To be who you are, to love who you love. I'm so proud of you." Taylor says as she reaches over me and grabs Alex's hand.

Alex smiled at Taylor while I looked at Taylor with a look she knew all too well.

"Thank you." Alex says as she grabs Taylor's hand. "Thank you. I'm glad to have you and this one here by my side."

"How's it feel knowing Taylor Swift is your sister in law."

"Honestly? Never in my wildest dreams, no pun intended, did I think I'd marry into the Swift family. Also I just get to hang out with Taylor? Like I'm literally a part of her family." Alex says making Taylor and I laugh.

"Well believe it, you're a Swift." Taylor says. "Im happy to have you be a part of our family. Austin loves you by the way, he's going to love to hang out with you and help you out with anything."

"I honestly can't wait to spend time with him, we never really had time to do that before."

"Well now you will." Taylor says with a smile.

"I love you both, but I'm really hot." I say as I try and get out from under the blanket.

"Okay but we're cold and you're like a built in heater." Taylor says.

"Oh that's nice, I'm just a heater for you two. Thanks. I'll be sure to tell the press that my wife and sister just like me around when it's cold."

"You're so annoying." Taylor says as she moves off the bed letting me get off.

I stand up and see Taylor get back in bed, while I stand there.

"Yes?" Taylor asks as she looks up.

"Move. I'm trying to get in bed."

"No, go sleep on the other bed, Alex and I will sleep here." Taylor says and my jaw drops.

"Seriously?" I ask as I cross my arms. "Al?"

"Oh I'm comfortable here thanks babe." Alex says without turning.

"Wow. Okay. Fine." I say as I walk to the other bed and lay down. "Fine."

"Goodnight babe."

"Yeah goodnight bub."

"No." I huff out.

"Babe."

"Goodnight losers."
