Izzy groaned softly and fell onto my legs. "When's Bubba gonna be home?"
My shoulders shrugged. "I'm not sure."
"What's he even doing?" She asked.
"Well, he should be at school." I stated. "He could be doing something else though."
"Well, he better hurry up." She demanded.
I chuckled. "I don't know if I can do anything about it."
She looked up at me. "Why aren't you at school?"
I pointed to my stomach. "I don't feel comfortable having my stomach poking out."
A small pout trailed onto her lips. "Why not?"
My shoulders shrugged lightly. "It's just what I feel comfortable with."
She sat up and hugged Beary into her arms. "Well, Bubba is really happy that he's gonna be a dad."
I smiled. "I know he is. That's all he's been talking about."
She nodded. "Yeah, and he said that he would be broken if something happened to you or his baby girl."
I felt my heart soften. "That's sweet."
A smile painted her little lips. "Mhm, he does love you. He wants to marry you."
I lightly chuckled. "I'm so sure."
"He does!" She sprung up. "That's his dream come true!"
"Okay, okay, okay," I laughed. "Calm down. Keep your brother's secrets to yourself."
She frowned. "Okay, sorry."
"It's okay," I reassured.
She sat back next to me and we heard the front door open. She immediately smiled and stood back up.
"Bubba!" She squealed as she ran out of her room.
I heard them talking downstairs, but I couldn't make out what they were saying. His footsteps quickly ran up the stairs and I heard Izzy's giggle bubble through the air. He came running in and gently threw Izzy on her bed.
I smiled and his eyes looked down at me. "Oh, hey."
"Hi," I replied.
He sat next to me. "Why are you here?"
"Your mom needed someone to watch Izzy."
"Ah," His tongue clicked. "I see."
"She's a better babysitter than you, Bubba!" Izzy joked while wrapping her arms around his neck.
He gasped in mock hurt. "How dare you!"
She laughed loudly and she clung to him tightly. He held her and looked back at me.
"Has she had her medicine yet?" He asked.
"No-" I tried to say, but Izzy cut me off.
"Yeah, I have." She corrected.
Luis's eyebrow raised. "I was asking Amelia, not you."
I chuckled. "No, she hasn't yet."
He frowned. "Izzy, remember that lying doesn't get you anywhere in life."
She sighed. "I know. I'm sorry."
"It's okay." He reassured. "Let's go do that quick, okay?"
"Okay..." She groaned.
He snickered lightly and stood up, Izzy still clung onto his back. They walked to wherever and I patiently waited.

point of view.
I walked Izzy to the kitchen where her medicine was stored. I set her on the counter and started getting everything ready.
"What did you and Amelia do?" I asked.
"Played with Beary." She smiled.
I chuckled. "Sounds fun."
"Mhm," She hummed while nodding. "And I also told her how you're gonna marry her."
My eyes widened slightly. "What?"
"Yeah!" She smiled.
"Izzy," My voice went into a whisper. "I told you not to tell her that. We gotta keep it a secret, okay?"
"Oh, right...sorry." She swallowed nervously.
"It's okay." I reassured once again. "Just keep it to yourself for a bit longer, alright?"
"Okay, but when are you gonna propose?" She whispered.
"I'm not telling you." I laughed quietly. "I don't want you ruining anything else."
She groaned in annoyance. "I won't!"
"Soon. That's the only clue you're getting."
"Fine." She huffed.
I chuckled and poked the needle into her arm. She whimpered slightly but didn't do what she did the first time. I pulled it out and set it down.
"Done."
She smiled. "Thank you."
"Of course." I smiled back at her.
She kissed my cheek lightly before I set her back on the ground.
"Go keep Amelia company while I clean up, okay?" I told her.
She nodded and ran off upstairs.

point of view.
I heard footsteps coming back upstairs and I looked up from my phone. Izzy came running back in and I looked to see if Luis was behind her.
"Where's Luis?" I asked.
She plopped down next to me. "He's still downstairs putting stuff away."
"Oh, okay." I nodded while placing my hands on my stomach.
Izzy looked at my stomach and smiled. "When's the baby coming?"
"In a few more months. Hopefully April." I stated.
"I'm so excited!" She exclaimed happily.
I laughed. "I know you are."
She contained herself and sighed. "How are babies made?"
My eyes widened slightly. "Um..."
She waited patiently for an answer and I quickly tried to make something up.
"Uh, well..." I sighed. "Ask your brother."
She pouted but didn't protest. Luis walked back into her room and immediately crawled next to me.
"Bubba?" Izzy hopped on his legs. "I have a question."
"What's up?" He asked while holding her little hands.
"How are babies made?" She asked again.
"Oh, um..." He looked at me.
I shrugged and a nervous chuckle left his mouth.
"You're still a little bit too young to know." He sighed.
She huffed. "I'm not!"
"You'll find out when you're older, alright?"
"Please, Bubba?" She pouted.
His head shook. "I'm sorry."
She huffed again but didn't ask any more questions.
"You could've made something up," I whispered in his ear.
His shoulders shrugged. "What was I supposed to say?"
I rolled my eyes playfully. "Never mind."
He chuckled lightly and his lips placed a soft kiss on my lips.
