Worth the wait

"It's my last day of school today!  I did it, mommy!"

"You did!  I can't believe you've completed preschool!  Mommy is so proud of you, Grayson!"

"I'm proud of me too!  I'm sooooo smart!"

"Yes you are!"

"Now I'm gonna be in kindergarten!"

"Awe!  My baby is getting so big!"

"I am!  I can count, and I can color more gooder!"

Jessica chuckles and Grayson continues.

"I can do so many things, because I'm a big boy now!"

"Yes you can!  Now stand over here so I can take your picture."

"Okay!"

Grayson smiles and Jessica snaps the picture.

She lowers the camera and smiles with tears in her eyes.

"What's wrong, mommy?"

"You're just such a big boy now!  You look so much like your daddy, Grayson."

Grayson smiles and hugs Jessica.

"You give the best hugs!" Jessica closes her eyes and holds her son in her arms.

***

"Happy anniversaryyyyy!" Danny sings.

"Thank you, baby! Happy anniversary to you too!"

Danny climbs on top of her and kisses her lips.

"WAAAAHH!"

"Heh!  Times up, honey."

Danny chuckles as he climbs off of her and gets the baby.

"Why are you crying like that?  Huh?!  What's the matter, pretty girl?  Ew you're stinky!  You're a stinky baby!"

Nova cries even louder and Jessica holds her arms out.

"Oh my poor baby!  Bring her to me, Danny!"

"Let me change her first, so she can eat comfortable."

"Okay, thank you."

"No problem.  Let's change this yucky dipey!"

As Danny changes her, Nova continues crying.

"She does not like to be changed!"

"No she doesn't.  Plus she's hungry, poor baby!"

"There we go!  All clean!  You ready to go to mama?"

Jessica gets herself ready and Danny hands her the baby.

Nova latches on immediately and Jessica gently rocks her.

"Oh you're starving!  My poor princess!"

Nova hums while she eats, then coughs a little.

"Well don't choke yourself!  Slow down, silly!" Jessica pulls her nipple away for a second, making the baby scream.

"Oh my goodness!"

Danny smiles down to Nova and Jessica looks up.
He softly kisses her lips before Jessica looks back down.

"You sure you don't want to go out tonight?  Not even for an hour?"

"No, Danny!  My baby's only a little over two weeks!  She needs her momma!  Isn't that right, pretty girl?"

The baby hums and Jessica giggles.

"Yeah.."

"Okay, I was just asking!  Don't worry about it."

"I won't!" Jessica looks up and smirks.

Danny laughs and Grayson runs in.

"Happy Anniversary, mommy and daddy!"

"Oh thank you, buddy!" Danny picks him up and kisses his cheek.

"Where are we going today?"

"Daddy's taking you to grandma Jane's, remember?"

"Oh yeah!  YAAAAY!" He shouts making Jessica laugh.

"I'm hungry!  I'm hungry!  I'm hungry!"

"Okay!  Okay!  Okay!" Danny mocks him making Grayson laugh.

"What do you want for breakfast, babe?"

"I'm okay with anything."

"Waffles!" Grayson smiles.

"Waffles it is then!" Danny says making Grayson very happy.

**

"Bye mommy!"

"Bye baby, have fun with grandma!"

"Okay!  Bye Novies!  Have fun with mommy, daddy, Fred, Sam, Tiffany and baby Samuel while I have fun with my grandma!"

Jessica laughs and pats his butt lightly.

"Hey!  Don't touch my booty, Missy!" Grayson smirks and points his finger at her.

"Heh!  Sorry!"

"It's okay!" Grayson puckers his lips for another kiss before heading out.

"Muah!  I love you!"

"Love you too, mommy!"

**

*Phone rings*

"Hi Jamesy! How are you today, baby?"

"Good! How are things at home?"

"Great! Nova is just eating.. Again! You're a hungry, girl, aren't you, baby?"

James hears his mother kiss his sister and smiles.

"Awe! What's for dinner tonight?"

"Heh! Well I'm not sure yet."

"Caroline and I wanna go over and see the babies."

"Not me?" Jessica pouts.

"Of course you too, momma!"

Jessica giggles and says, "I'll ask Danny what he's planning on making.. It's our anniversary."

"Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry, mom! I have so much on my mind lately! Happy anniversary!"

"Thank you, baby.. What do you have on your mind?"

"Just work stuff."

"Oh.."

"Yeah. Well then we will Definitely come over tonight! Hey, I have an idea!"

"What is it?"

"Why don't we watch Nova and you and Danny go out?"

"Oh that's very sweet, but I'd rather stay in."

"Okay, that's fine. The boys and I can cook! It's the least I can do after forgetting your anniversary." James chuckles.

"Haha, okay! That sounds great! I'll let Danny know. Thank you, baby!"

"You're welcome, mom!"

**

"Look who's back!" Jessica smiles to Danny as he walks in.

"It's your daddy, Nova!"

"Hey!" Danny walks over to the sofa with a bouquet of roses for Jessica.

"Awe, thank you Danny!"

"You're very welcome, Princess." He kisses her lips and sets the flowers down so he can take the baby.

"Hi pretty girl!"

"Sit with me." Jessica smiles and pats the seat next to her.

Danny kisses Nova's cheek and just smiles at her.

"She's beautiful, isn't she?" Jessica says grabbing onto his arm and scotches closer to him.

"Yes she is. Just like her mommy." Danny smiles.

*Giggles* "You're sweet."

Jessica kisses his arm and looks at the baby.

"Three years ago today we started trying for a baby.. and now we have this precious baby girl."

"She was worth the wait, huh?"

*Nods* "Yes she was! This perfect baby girl.. Mommy and daddy wanted you so bad, Novies.. and we're so happy to have you.. You complete our little family, and we love you so so much."

Nova looks up to her parents and they chuckle.

"What pretty eyes you have, Princess!" Danny smiles.

Jessica looks at Danny just staring down to their daughter. She softly rubs the back of fingers on the back of his head, and says, "I'm so happy we have her together.. We made a beautiful little miracle."

"Yes we did." He smiles softly and kisses her lips gently.

**

"Say happy anniversary, Grandma and grandpa!" Tiffany walks down holding Samuel.

"Awe! Thank you, baby! Come to grandma, munchkin!" Jessica takes him and kisses his chubby cheeks.

"Uh oh!"

"Oh I'm so sorry! Samuel, why did you spit up on grandma?"

"It's okay! It'll wash off!  I have your auntie's spit up right here!" Jessica laughs and points to the other side of her shirt.

"The joys of having babies!" Sam smiles.

"I love it! I will gladly be covered in baby spit up any day."

"Gross, mom." He chuckles.

Jessica laughs and Sam wraps his arm around her and kisses her head.

"Happy anniversary, old woman."

"Heh! Thanks, Sam."

**

"I'm home! I'm home!" Grayson runs in.

"My baby's home!  How was your day, cutie?"

"It was SO good!  I love my grandma!" He smiles.

"Awe, you cutie!"

"Mommy?"

"Yes, baby?"

"Why didn't Nova come with me?"

"Because you needed to spend time with Grammy."

"But she's Nova's Grammy too.."

Jessica looks at Danny, then back at Grayson and says, "Grandma Jane is a sweet sweet woman and treats Nova like her grandchild.. But she's not."

"But how?  She's my grandma, why isn't she her's?"

"Because she's daddy Sam's mom, and daddy Sam is your daddy.. Not Nova's.  Daddy Danny is her only daddy."

"But if I have two daddy's, why can Nova?"

"She didn't know your daddy, baby."

"But I didn't either."

Jessica's eyes immediately tear up, and Grayson says, "I know she knows daddy, cause he told me in my dream that she was gonna be cute.. And she is!  He knows her, mommy!  He knows her!" Grayson grabs Jessica's hand and shakes it.

"Well you know what?  Your daddy can be Nova's Uncle Sam." Jessica smiles.

"Her Uncle Sam?"

"Yeah!"

"Oh!  Okay then.."

"Do you have any more questions?"

"Hmm.. No, I don't think so!"

"Okay. *Smiles* Go get ready for dinner, baby."

"Okay!" He smiles and runs to the stairs.

Jessica sighs and runs her hand through her hair.

"You handled that well." Danny sits beside her and wraps his arm around her shoulders.

"Thanks.. I know the older he gets, the more questions he'll have.  It just breaks my heart hearing him say he doesn't know his daddy.  It really hurts me that Sam isn't here for him.. But he has you.. I know Sam sent us you, baby.  He knew that we needed you.  Not only you, but Zachary and Nova as well.  I honestly don't know what I would do without any one of you."

Danny smiles and wraps both arms around her. Jessica lays her head on his chest and rests her eyes closed.

"Can I give your present now?" He asks.

"Oh Danny, I don't have anything for you!  I'm so sorry!"

"You've already given me everything I need, beautiful."

Jessica smiles and Danny reaches into his pocket.

He hands her a small box and she smiles and opens it.

"Oh Danny!  This is so beautiful!  Thank you so much, baby!"

"You're welcome!  I went back and forth, I didn't know exactly what to buy you.. But I know the kids are everything to you, so I wanted to incorporate them somehow."

Danny gave her a silver heart shaped necklace with each of the kid's names on it, and their birthstones on the edge of the heart.

Jessica tears up and grabs his face before she crashes her lips into his.

"I love it!  Thank you so so much!" She says between kisses.

"Mmm.. You're welcome.." Danny moans as he grabs her back in his big warm hands.

***

"This is so good!  Thank you boys!" Jessica smiles.

"You're welcome, mom!  It was all my idea!" Zachary smiles.

James hits his arm and Jessica laughs.

"I love you guys."

"We love you, ma." Michael smiles.

*Baby cries*

"Little miss Nova's up!"

"I'll get her!" Zachary stands

"Thanks, baby."

"Hey.. Hey!  What are you crying about?" He bounces her lightly.

Nova stops crying and slowly closes her eyes.

"Awe.. Did you just have a bad dream?  Is that why you woke up, beautiful?"

"Do baby's have bad dreams?" Michael asks.

"I'm sure they do." Caroline answers.

"Well I'm sure!  It's probably like a pair of boobs in front of them, but they're not able to get to them." Sam says making everyone laugh.

Tiffany rolls her eyes and Sam continues, "A good dream would be like these giant pair of boobs just dripping with milk right on top of you.. Man!  Baby's have a great life when you think about it." He smiles.

"You're sick!" Tiffany elbows him. 

***
I have some stuff planned for Sam and Tiffany, but I want to hold off a little while longer. 

What would you like to see happen with Zachary and Michael's characters?

I want some drama, but I'm not really sure what kind I want.  I have a few little things planned, but nothing big.  Let me know if you have anything you'd like for me to add. :)
