«Eighty-Two»

2 months later

"TIME!" Katie shouted for the eighth time this evening. The newly furnished house and newest residence were in a rush.

"10 minutes!" Manu hollered, helping his daughter into her shoes.

It had been a week since his best friend and jokemate had headed to England to pick up his and Scott's baby. No one knew the gender or name, so the casts had been excited when they announced the homecoming party.

Katie waddled down the steps, her huge belly causing her to semi lose balance, Huia helping her down the final steps. "Thank you, Princess" Katie smiled.

"Okay girls, to the car!" Manu commanded and the energetic children were out the door.

"I'm so excited" Katie said, grabbing her bag and beginning to make her way out the door. "I hope it's a baby girl"

"Why, so she can marry our little Manu?" Manu laughed, carrying the presents Katie had picked.

"Yes, or our little Katie" Katie smiled rubbing her belly, kissing Manu's cheek and waddled out the door.

In the Amell household, things weren't going as smoothly. Robbie and Italia had come to town for the party and was staying with Melissa and Stephen. To add on to everything, Italia was a month pregnant.

"You really think that was a good idea?" Robbie asked as Italia inhaled a cupcake Melissa had got her for breakfast.

Italia shot her husband a side eye, Melissa quickly jumping in, "Why don't you go pack the presents, Tali?" Melissa suggested.

Italia rushed off to pack her presents in the car with Stephen. Melissa quickly turning to her cousin-in-law, "Never judge a pregnant woman for eating" Melissa warned, "That's one way to end up walking to John and Scott's house"

"it's just, she's gonna be complaining about getting big so-" Melissa cut him off.

"That's a way to end up on the couch" Melissa pointed, "She may get self-conscious soon, but that's because she's going to be carrying a living being for 9 months, then having to birth said being for what could be hours, believe me, Robbie, she deserves that cupcake"

"We gotta get moving! Everyone's almost there!" Stephen shouted.

"Coming!" Melissa hollered back, "Come on, we gotta get to this party, then I'll give you more lessons on how to handle your pregnant wife"

Everyone had soon gathered in the living room of the Barrowman residents, chatter and laughter echoed as John and Scott carried the baby carrier into the house. Katie C was the first to see them.

"Yay! You're home!" She stood up, waddling over to them and hugging them.

"Welcome home!" Melissa jumped up and rushed to them.

"We should go away more often if this is how we're greeted" John chuckled.

"I think they are just tryna see the baby" Stephen chuckled.

"Oh, yea, we only care about the child" Katie C smirked.

"Fine, sit down and we'll show the baby" Katie C and Melissa sat exactly where they stood, a tad hard for Katie C but they managed to sit down like two children on Christmas, causing everyone to laugh.

"Okay," Scott smiled, "We would like to introduce to you, our daughter, Cara Catherine"

Everyone in the room gasped lightly as John pulled out the baby girl with already semi-long blonde hair. "Awe" Katie C smiled.

"Cara with a C and Catherine with a C," John said.

"Naw" Melissa smiled.

"Does the godfather want to hold her first?" John asked, gesturing to Manu.

"Eff the godfather! Godmama wants to hold her first!" Katie C pouted.

"Let Katie hold her, or else I'll end up on the floor tonight" Manu chuckled.

John passed Cara to Katie C who immediately began cooing at the baby girl, Melissa and Caity began leaning over her shoulder and cooing as well.

"Welcome to the fathers club" Stephen and the other fathers cheered with John and Scott.

"Anything you need, remember we're here" Grant smiled.

"Thank you" Scott smiled.

"I don't think Cara's going to be short of any motherly figures" Manu smiled. Almost all the women and even the kids had gathered around Katie C to coo at the baby girl.

"No, I don't think so either"

The welcome home party for Cara had continued on, even after Scott had put her down for a nap in her new room.

Katie C, Caity, and Melissa had been hovering around the food table, snacking on almost everything. "I know you aren't telling the gender or name, but can you at least tell us who is gonna be the godparents?" Caity asked.

"Yea, cause we're getting confused," Melissa said.

"Bot of you" Kaite C shrugged.

"Both of us? What happens if something happens to you and Manu? You're just gonna leave us to fight over the baby?" Caity asked.

"ies" Katie said.

"ies?" Melissa asked.

"Babies" Katie C emphasized.

"Twins?" City gasped.

"Oh my God, I called it," Melissa said.

"Shhhh" Katie C chastised, "Neither of you can tell anyone, not even your husbands can know"

"Awe" Caity cooed, "A little Katie and Manu at once"

"Oh God, a little Katie and Manu at once," Melissa said in semi-shock, the realization hit both her and Caity at once.

"Oh no"
