Kit and Jude decided to stay home for the day as they were making plans for the weekend when the doorbell went off.

"I wonder who that could be?" Kit asked

"I did not think we were expecting company today." Jude said as they walked to the door.

They opened the door to see a man standing there in a hat and Jude noticed it was Frank.

"Oh my goodness, Jude." Frank said as Jude hugged him.

"Oh my gosh Frank, get in here." Jude said as he looked around.

"I went by your old house to see another couple living there and I talked to a very lovely person at the post office about where you live now." Frank said as they sat down.

"Well, we moved in here before we got married and now we're expecting two babies." Kit said as he handed Jude a glass of ice water and him an iced tea.

"Thank you darling, but we're so happy you're here Frank, I heard you no longer work at Briarcliff and what a relief that is to hear." Jude said to Kit as he sat behind her.

"Yes and now I work at the bank on Salon Avenue." Frank said

"Jude works two blocks over from there." Kit said

"I know, I seen Pepper one day with a red headed lady and two brunette ladies." Frank said as Jude smiled.

"That's Vivien, Violet and Jane." Kit said

"And some man giving me a go to hell old man, look." Frank said as Kit and Jude laughed.

"Oh, that's Roy. He gives me that look all the time." Kit said as she chuckled.

"Well, Pepper gave me a hug and we talked for over an hour and he stared at me the whole time like I was some creep." Frank said as Kit rubbed her bump.

"Oh yeah, he tells Kit to go to hell and gives him the strangest looks, but he's with Jane." Jude said as Frank looked at her pregnant belly.

"So, how far along are you?" Frank asked them.

"I'm now three months pregnant and I have a feeling I know the genders of our children." Jude said as Kit smiled.

"Well, I'm happy that you two got together, got married and now are expecting two beautiful babies." Frank said

"Well, I'm just happy you're here." Jude said

"Well, could you stay for dinner?" Kit asked him.

"Sure." Frank said

"Great! Jude said happily.

Jude felt something as Frank hugged her earlier.

"Something is odd Jude?" Mary Eunice appeared.

"You tell me." Jude said as she walked into the kitchen as she took a drink of her water.

"Well, it's probably because you two slept together before your confinement." Mary Eunice said as Jude spit out her water.

"Oh my God Jude! Are you okay?" Frank asked her.

"Oh dear, yes Frank. I'm fine, the babies kicked and I could not keep my water down." Jude lied as she turned back to Mary Eunice as Kit took Frank outside to show him the yard.

"I slept with Frank?" Jude asked Mary Eunice.

"Yes, but it's in your past now." Mary Eunice said

"Oh my goodness! What if Kit finds out?" Jude asked

"Didn't you already tell him this before you got married?" Mary Eunice asked her.

"Maybe?" Jude questioned herself.

"Well Judy, you do have the best booty around." Mary Eunice said as she smacked Jude's behind.

"Lord, what the hell did you have in your coffee this morning Mary Eunice?" Jude asked her.

"You shouldn't put 'Lord' and 'hell' in the same sentence or question." Mary Eunice said

"So, I have a right to say that." Jude asked her.

"You know what you should do Jude?" Mary Eunice asked

"What?" Jude asked her.

"Do you remember that time I found a cucumber in your cell?" Mary Eunice asked as Jude looked at her.

"Yes, unfortunately." Jude said

"Do you remember what you told me?" Mary Eunice questioned.

"What is this, an interrogation?" Jude asked her.

"Do you remember or not?" Mary Eunice asked.

"Yes, I do." Jude asked as her babies started kicking up a storm.

"Okay, maybe the babies got too much excitement." Mary Eunice said

"Yes they are." Jude said as she wished that they would settle down.

"Maybe you should recreate that night?" Mary Eunice asked

"Oh no Mary Eunice, I will not cheat on my husband or go back to the woman I once had been." Jude said

"I meant you, Frank and Kit altogether. I read it helps to have another partner along." Mary Eunice said as Jude remembered she did have this conversation with Kit.

"You want me to have a threesome with Frank and Kit?" Jude asked her.

"Well, why not?" Mary Eunice asked her.

"I don't know how to explain this to my husband and Frank." Jude said

"Just tell them how you feel." Mary Eunice said as Jude heard Frank and Kit laughed.

"I think I will just continue having normal intimacy with my husband." Jude said as Kit sat beside Jude and Frank sat in the recliner.

"I was telling Frank about the time Roy shot off that bottle rocket." Kit said as they laughed.

"And how he scared us by it tipping over. I will never forget how all of us girls ran into the house, scared to death." Jude said

"This year will be different though." Kit said

"Yes, I will be nine months and thirty eight weeks pregnant, so I will be ill and tired enough." Jude said

"Yes I know." Kit said

"Maybe I can bring Jeanine over here sometime?" Frank questioned as Jude smiled.

"And who is Jeanine?" Jude asked

"My wife." Frank said

"Well, I can't wait to meet her and hopefully soon, we can all get together." Jude said

"That sounds wonderful.'' Frank said

"Well, would Jeanine mind if you stayed over for dinner?" Jude asked

"Well, she went to see her daughter in Minnesota, so I don't see why not." Frank said

"Okay, what would you like?" Kit asked him.

"Anything sounds great to me." Frank said

Kit and Jude prepared spaghetti and a salad as they all sat down for dinner.

"So Frank, what is Jeanine like?" Jude asked him.

"Lovely. She's likes to paint and free hand draw." Frank said

"What's her occupation?" Kit asked him.

"She's the bank manager where I work." Frank said

"Well, there's got to be a love story behind it?" Jude asked

"Well, there is and I'm not the one to tell it like she can." Frank said

"No, I would love to hear it." Jude said

"She actually dumped a cup of hot coffee on me by accident." Frank said as they laughed.

"Wow! Some love story." Kit said

"Yes it is and she started telling me how sorry she was and that she was having a bad day." Frank said as he took another drink of his water.

"And her daughter is from a previous marriage?" Jude asked him.

"Yes, Madison lives in Minnesota because her job transferred her there." Frank said

"And what does Madison do?" Jude asked

"She's an interior designer, vice president." Frank said

"Oh that's amazing." Jude said

"Yes and y'all have become owners yourself." Frank said

"Yes, I own the bookstore just a couple of blocks over from Salon Avenue and Kit owns the gas station not too far from here." Jude said

"Well, I'm glad that all of our lives have worked out and that y'all are happy." Frank said

"We are too and I'm just happy that you're married and I hope you come to see us again." Kit said as they all got up from the table and walked to the front door.

"I am too and I will. Maybe me and Jeanine will have a day off soon, so I can bring her with me, to let you meet her Jude." Frank said as Jude smiled.

"I would love that and I hope to meet Madison too." Jude said as she felt the babies kick her again.

"Only if she will ever come down here." Frank said

"Well, it's getting late and I have to work tomorrow, but it was nice to see you both again." Frank said as he kissed Jude's cheek and shook Kit's hand while he put on his coat and hat.

"It was lovely seeing you too Frank." Jude said

"Thanks for always being by our side." Kit said

"It was my job and I miss you both, not that snake pit, but just seeing y'all everyday." Frank said

"We do too." Jude said as she hugged him.

"Well, I will see you soon. Have a good night." Frank said as he went to get in his car as he left.

"Alright, I'm going to get ready for bed." Jude said

"Okay baby." Kit said as he kissed her as she went upstairs to get ready for bed.

Kit started doing the dishes as the phone started ringing.

"Who is calling this late at night?" Kit questioned as he answered the phone.

"Hello?" Kit asked

"Hey Kit, is Jude there?" The voice belonging to Jane, hearing her sniffling and crying.

"Yes darling, but she just went to bed. What's wrong?" Kit asked her.

"I really need to talk to her. Could you go wake her up, please?" Jane asked as she cried.

"Okay, I'll be right back. Don't hang up." Kit said as Jane sniffled.

Kit hurried up the stairs as he went to her side of the bed and turned on her lamp as she woke up.

"Kit baby, what's wrong?" Jude asked him.

"Jane is on the phone downstairs, crying." Kit said as that immediately panicked Jude to death.

Her and Kit went downstairs to the kitchen as she picked up the phone.

"Jane darling, what's wrong. Did something happen?" Jude asked as Jane cried.

"Could you come down here, please?'' Jane asked her as she cried.

"Jane, where's Pepper?" Jude immediately panicked.

"She's fine, it's not her." Jane said

"Then what's going on... Ow!" Jude immediately felt pain in her stomach.

"It's Roy." Jane said as Jude could not stop the pain in her stomach.

"Jane, could you give us time to get there?" Jude asked her.

"Of course Jude, is everything okay?" Jane asked her.

"Yes darling, but I think I'm losing one of the babies." That's all Jude could say as she bent over in pain.

"Kit!" Jude screamed.

Kit heard her scream from the bedroom, packing their suitcase as he rushed downstairs as he seen Jude try to relieve the feeling in her lower abdomen.

"Let's go!" Kit said as he picked Jude up and carried her to the car as they sped off to the hospital as they checked her in.
