“Yeah oh course I am! I’ve always wanted to be a big sister!”
“Ok just checking.” Kate said beaming,
“I’m so happy for you guys!” Alexis giving her dad a hug.
“Hello darling!” Martha said walking through the door holding a large suitcase.
“Hello mother!” Rick said giving her a kiss on the cheek.
“Well you sound very happy!” Martha said giving Alexis and Kate a hug.
“We are.” Kate beamed,
“Well come on Katherine tell me the news!” Martha said sitting down on a stool,
“You’re going to be a grandmother to another child soon!” Kate said,
“Oh Katherine that’s wonderful!” Martha said giving her another huge hug.
“I presume the father is Richard?” She hissed trying to be quiet but they all heard,
Kate laughed “Yes Rick is the father.”
“Oh and can you guys keep it to yoursleves, we want to tell everyone else ourselves.”
“No problem!” Alexi said,
“I shall do my best but when my daughter-in-law is having a baby I am very excited!” Martha said still smiling.
“We shall tell the others soon so then you can talk about it together.” Rick reassured them.
“Yeah we can tell them after work tomorrow.” Kate suggested, Gates had given her an extra 2 weeks off.
“Oh yeah work tomorrow…” Rick said thinking about it,
Kate tried to silence her yawn but failed miserably,
“You should rest.” Rick said,
“No I’m fine it’s only 7 PM.”
“Yes but you’re carrying a baby so you’re going to be tired.” Rick argued,
“I’m fine seriously.”
“No you’re not, you’re tired and you need to go to bed and rest, you have work in 14 hours,” Rick said checking his watch,
“But-“
Rick cut her off, “No buts, bed.” Rick said pushing her lightly towards the bedroom.
“Fine” Kate grumbled,
She took off her t-shirt and jeans and threw them in the corner and she put on a pair of Rick’s boxers and one of his t-shirts which were huge on her.
“I love it when you wear my clothes.” Rick said laying down beside her on the bed propping his head up on his hand so he can see her properly.
“Yeah that’s partly why I wear them. The other part is because there big, baggy and comfterble.” Kate said smiling at him.
“I still can’t believe you’re pregnant.” Rick said stroking her cheek with his thumb,
“I know me too, like I haven’t noticed any difference yet but I will soon.”
“It sounds like you say it in a bad way...” Rick said sounding a little upset
“No not like that. I’m pretty sure I will enjoy most of it apart from the throwing up and the sore boobs and ankles. The rest I will love.” Kate said reassuring him.
“Good, because I think pregnancy will suit you really well.” Rick said smiling at her.
“You’re only saying that because my boobs will be bigger aren’t you?” Kate said smirking at him,
