30

A couple days later I woke up feeling nauseous. I ran to the bathroom. Zach was still asleep, so he had no clue. I emptied my stomach contents into the toilet and flushed.

I didn't miss that.

Quickly brushing my teeth, I walked to Noah's room. The house was pretty festive because it was almost Christmas. "Hey, Noah." I softly spoke as I bent down next to his bed. His big brown eyes fluttered open and looked up at me. "Hi mama." He softly said while rubbing his eyes. "Hi baby." I softly said before gently pushing his hair out of his eyes. "Want to make daddy some breakfast?" I asked. He excitedly nods and jumps up. He jumps into my arms and holds on tight as I take us downstairs.

"What do you want to make daddy?" I asked as I set him down. He thought for a moment.

"Pancakes, hash browns, eggs, and bacon!" Noah exclaims. "On it! Want to help make the pancakes?" I asked. He nodded as I got out the ingredients. "Chocolate chip pancakes?" I asked. "Yes please!" Noah nods.

"Noah, do you want to go wake up daddy while I set the table?" I asked him as I started dishing out plates. "Yes." Noah smiles and crawls up the stairs. I set the dishes out on the table and set out syrup and some other things. I hear footsteps making their way downstairs as I finish setting the silverware down. Zach emerged with Noah in his arms. "Good morning!" I greeted. Zach drowsily smiled at me and the breakfast I prepared. "It looks delicious, babe." Zach smiles as he kissed my cheek. "Thank you, now take a seat and dig in!" I exclaimed. "Do you want anything to drink?" I asked as I entered the kitchen.

"Can I get some coffee please?" Zach asked. "Yeah!" I said as I started the coffee machine.

Later that day as Zach took Noah to the studio with him, I went to the store for Christmas shopping and a doctors appointment I scheduled earlier that morning.

•••

The doctor confirmed my suspicions, I was pregnant. I decided I was going to tell Zach on Christmas. It was only two days away, so I doubt he would catch on that fast.

I walked into the house to see Zach playing with Noah's action figures with him. "Hey!" I smiled. "Mama!" Noah greeted before running over and hugging my legs. I crouched down and hugged him as Zach joined us near the door. "How was the studio?" I asked as Noah ran away to play with his toys. "It was good, we wrote a new song and worked on some chords we could use." He nods. I nod as I watch Noah play.

"All the boys said we could have Christmas dinner here since we had Thanksgiving at Corbyn's." Zach says as he leads me to the couch. "Sure." I smiled as I laid my head on Zach's shoulder. The two of us watched Noah play with his toys.

"Daddy! Look, I made this for you!" Noah exclaims as he stands up and runs over to Zach. I take my head off of his shoulder so he can have more access to Noah.

Noah grabbed onto his dad's pants and reached out to him with a paper in his hands. Zach picked him up and placed him on his lap before looking at the picture in Noah's small hands.

I smile at the two of them as I place my hand on my stomach. The two of them played around on the couch. Zach hugged Noah before taking him to the kitchen and putting his drawing up on the fridge. I took my hand off my stomach and went upstairs.

As I started the shower, I heard Noah's loud laugh downstairs. I smiled to my self and hopped into the shower.

"Momma! Daddy! It's Christmas!" Noah shouted as he jumped onto our bed. I opened my eyes as I heard Noah giggling. Zach pulled him down and was tickling him. "Daddy stop!" Noah giggled as he attempted to push his dad's hands away from him.

Zach pulled away a couple seconds later and let Noah stand up. "Come on! It's Christmas!" Noah smiled. "Alright, go ahead and run down. Wait for us to open the presents." I told Noah with a smile. He giggled and ran down the stairs. Zach turned to me and kissed my cheek briefly.

"Can you believe we made that?" He asked. "We did. Now let's hurry up before he comes back up." I laughed as I got out of bed before slipping a hoodie over my shoulders. Zach and I both walked downstairs to see Noah patiently waiting on the couch. He giggles as he sees the two of us.

Zach and I sit down on the ground and Noah joins us by the tree. I start handing the boys their gifts. "Wait! I got you a couple things!" Zach says before springing up and running upstairs.

He comes down a couple seconds later with a pile of gifts in his arms. "Zach, you didn't have to do this." I pouted as I played Christmas music through the speakers. I played the boy's Christmas EP. 'You and Me at Christmas' was the first one to play. "So? You're my wife, you deserve the world." He said as he placed the gifts beside me. Tears brimmed my eyes as I looked at them. I looked up at him as she sat down beside me. "I love you." I said as I hugged him tightly. "I have something for you too, but you have to save it for the last one you open." I said as I stood up to get the gift. It was my way of telling him I was pregnant.

I grabbed the medium sized box from the laundry room and returned to the living room. "It's Christmas, baby." Zach smiled at the same time he did in the song. I smiled at him and sat down beside him. I passed him the present and he set it down beside him. "Okay, Noah. You can open your presents now." Zach smiled at his son. Noah giggled and opened his gift.

"Who's that one from?" I asked. "Uncle Corbyn." Noah giggled as he pulled the wrapping off. It was a book about Space. Of course, typical Corbyn. "I love space!" Noah beamed. I smiled at him as he hugged it to his chest.

He grabbed the next closest present and checked Who it was from. "Grandpa!" He exclaimed as he opened it. He ripped the wrapping off to reveal a nerf gun. "Oh no." I groaned. "Yes!" Zach cheered. I laughed at the two of them. "Daddy! Open one with me!" Noah exclaims. Zach smiles as he grabs a present from me. It wasn't the one I told him to wait for, thank god. "Ready?" He asked Noah. Noah beamed as he ripped the wrapping off of the present. Zach opened his to reveal a new microphone for his studio in the house. It was a small studio, but his old microphone was on the verge of death. He looked at the bottom to see his initials next to Noah's. "I love it!" Zach exclaimed before hugging me.

The two of them proceeded to open presents together. "Angel, you should open yours." Zach said. I nodded and looked down at the pile. There was a small container on top, so I grabbed it. Zach and Noah watched me open it. It was a necklace with Noah and Zach's first initial's on it. My eyes filled with tears as I stared at it. "I love it." I cried as I looked up with Zach. Zach kissed my forehead softly and helped me put it on.

Not long after, it was time for Zach to open his last one. Noah was playing with his new toys on the couch while Zach and I stayed on the floor. "Open it." I smiled. He grabbed the box and set it in front of him. He gently pushed the wrapping paper off and opened the box. Zach reached in and pulled out a bear that had 'Baby Herron #2.' Engraved on it.

Zach beamed over at me with tears in his eyes. I nodded in confirmation. He engulfed me in a hug. "I love you, oh my god." He cried into my shoulder. He pulled away and kissed me. "Ew!" We heard. I giggled as I pulled away from the kiss. "Hey, Noah. Why don't you go put on your new outfit so you're ready when everyone comes over?" I suggested. He nodded with a bright smiled and ran upstairs to his room. "I can't believe it." Zach said as he looked at the bear in his hands. "Me either." I softly said as I laid my head on his shoulder.

"Look! It's Uncle Corbyn and Christina with uncle Daniel and Aunt Hailey!" Noah exclaims at the bottom of the stairs in his new outfit as he pointed out the window. "Why don't you go greet them?" Zach said to Noah. Noah excitedly nodded and ran towards the door, flinging it open and running towards everyone.

Jonah and Taaliya pulled up with Jack and Isabella with Halo in her seat. Hailey ran past everyone and ran inside. "Heyo!" She exclaimed as she sat down on the couch. Zach wiped his tears and hugged the bear. "Are you okay?" Hailey asked him. "We'll tell you guys when everyone's inside." I nod as I watch Noah outside.
