Sahara's POV —later that day—
I throw the stuff animals into the playroom as I clean up. I'm pissed. Johnson needs to stay out of this. It escalated way far then it should've and Hensley is overreacting. I'm trying to help her. She needs to spend time with her kids. Yes having dates with your husband is important but having them every other week isn't. And making someone with two toddlers watch your kids isn't any better.
"You need to calm down Sahara." Jack says picking up wrappers from the floor. I look at him.
"How can I cam down? He's being stupid. Both of them are. And bringing it to social media? That's just being petty. All I told Hensley was to spend time with her kids. I'm pregnant and have two kids of my own. What makes her think she can just add two kids into the mix? But not only did I ruin mine and Hensley's friendship but I ruin yours and Johnson's. And Kai misses Alex and I'm pretty sure he's mad at me-"
"Sahara, calm down your gonna stress the baby out." Jack says cutting me off. I sigh and sit down.
"You didn't ruin anything. Being friends for as long as all of us have, something was bound to happen that would test all of our friendships. Kai isn't mad at you. He just doesn't understand. Hensley needs to learn how to be a mother. She can't rely on you forever." He says and I just look at him. Just then there's a knock. Jack walks away and I get up and follow him. He unlocks the door and opens it and there stands Johnson and Hensley behind him. I roll my eyes and place my hand on the door and go to close it. Johnson holds it open. I open it back up and flip him off. He shrugs
"I'm not here for you." He says and I shrug
"You not Jack need to get involved in this. It's between Hensley and I.." I say and he rolls his eyes
"You telling Hensley how to be a mom isn't just between you two." He says and I give him a look
"Right cuz your a mom too?" I ask and I feel jack's hand on my back
"Johnson. Please not right now." Jack says and Johnson looks at him.
"So you aren't gonna defend Sahara?" He asks
"He doesn't need to defend me. There's nothing to defend." I say and Hensley lets out a harsh laugh
"If I came and told you how to be a mom what would you do?" She asks
"If you came and told me you didn't wanna watch my kids every other week, I would understand. Not be petty and spread shit." I say and she raises an eyebrow.
"You don't watch my kids every other week." She says
"Your right. I'm sorry." I say and Johnson and Hensley make a face
"I watched them every 4 Days." I say and she rolls her eyes
"I should've adopted them to be honest." I say and she makes a face
"I'm done with you." She says and I nod
"Then consider yourself done being Kai's godparents." I say and Johnson shakes his head
"Wow. Look at you. Being just like Madison. I guess you really couldn't they over her huh? So you married someone just like her." Johnson says glancing from me to Jack. 
"And you couldn't get over Claudia so you married someone just like her too. Have a good night." I say and then close the door and lock it. I walk away and continue to pick up, silently.
"Your nothing like Madison, babe." Jack says and I nod.
"Ok." I simply reply. I throw a few more things into the play room and close the door. I throw my hair up and then fold the blankets and place them on the couch and fix the pillows. I pick up paper plates from  the coffee table and throw them away in the kitchen trash.
"Can you sit down Sahara?" Jack asks and I just shrug.
"Yes you need to. He's due in three weeks and you could cause him to come early." He says and I look at him.
"You don't think I know that? I'll be fine." I say and then grab the windex and clean the coffee table glass. I set the basket with the puzzles and remotes back on it. I then throw away the paper towels and put the windex back in the cabinet.
"They're still Kai's godparents." I say meaning against the counter.
"Your choice." Jack answers. I sigh and rub my face. I have no makeup on so that's good.
"I didn't want this to happen. I didn't want this crap to blow up." I say and he's now in front of me
"I know you didn't. But sometimes it's out of your hands." He says and I nod
"I know." I say. He comes to me and kisses my cheek.
"Go lay down. I'll finish cleaning." He says and I nod.   I go to walk out of the kitchen but feel a sharp pain go across my stomach causing me to put my hand against the wall.
"You ok Sahara?" I hear Jack ask.
"Yea. Just some pain. I'm fine though." I say. Not feeling up to walk upstairs, I go and sit on the couch. I put my feet up on the coffee table and then turn the tv on and turn it down. I begin to watch Keeping up with the Kardashian's until another pain comes. This one hurts a little more. But not like I'm in labor. At least I've never had these pains with the other kids. I decide to lay down on the couch and rub my stomach. That doesn't help though as another pain comes 10 minutes later. I sigh and sit up and grab my phone and call my doctor. A few rings and she answers
"Doctor Sanders office, this is she speaking." She answers
"Hi doctor. It's Sahara Gilinsky." I say
"Sahara. Hey how are you doing?" She asks
"I'm not sure. I'm having sharp pains in my lower stomach. I didn't have them when I was pregnant with Kai and Rosie so I'm not sure what they are." I say and I hear her hum.
"Are they the same level of pain every time?" She asks
"Yea." I answer
"How far apart?" I hear her ask
"10 or so minutes." I say
"So...he's due in three or so weeks. Do you think you can come by?" She asks and I stand up
"Let me tell Jack." I say and walk into the kitchen. I put her on mute and then pull the phone away
"Can you cal Sammy and Stassie? To come and watch the kids. We need to go to the doctors office really quick." I say and he frowns but nods and grabs his phone to call one of them. I unmute her and put the phone to my ear
"Yes we can. 35 minutes sound good?" I ask
"Sure. Just keep check of the pains Alright?" She asks
"Got it." I say
"Ok. See you soon." She says
"See you soon." I say. She says bye and I hang up just as Jack gets a hold of Sammy.
"Yesh?" He answers and I laugh
"Can you and Stassie come and watch the kids?" Jack asks
"Yea why?" He asks
"I'm having pains. I'm not sure what they are so we are heading to the doctors. It won't be long." I say and I now hear Stassie's voice.
"Aren't you early?" She asks
"I don't know if I'm in labor." I say
"Ok. We'll be there in ten." She answers
"Ok. Bye." I say. She says bye and Jack hangs up and looks at me
"I told you to calm down and sit down." He says and I roll my eyes
"He could just be tired. I just wanna check ok?" I ask and he nods. I stand on my toes and kiss him and then walk over to the door and slip some vans on. I then walk upstairs to the kids room and quickly kiss them both and walk out closing the door quietly and walk back downstairs. There's a soft knock so I walk to the door and open it and see Stassie and Sammy.
"Hey!" I say smiling. I hug them both and then let them in.
"They are both asleep. If they wake up text Jack or me. Usually you can just give them milk or water and they'll be set." I say and Stassie nods
"The nanny cam screen is right there. You can check on there." I say and they nod
"You text me if anything happens." She says and I nod
"I will but I doubt it." I say and she nods. Jack grabs his keys and I grab my phone. I hug them once more and then we both walk out and to the car. He starts it and we back out and head to the doctors office.
