"Olivia Dun!"

"Yeah baby!" Josh's voice was obnoxiously loud as was Hayley's cheering, but Tyler was smiling wide watching his little peach cross the stage in a purple paper graduation gown that they had made for all the students last week in class. She looked adorable as she was handed the certificate that Josh and Tyler both knew would be folded and crinkled by the time they got their hands on it.

At Meadow Ridge, they wanted to celebrate the fifth graders graduating into middle school and the kindergartners 'graduating' into the first grade. No parent was going to complain about over celebrating their toddlers, especially when graduation would cost a pretty penny in twelve years. Tyler should really be up there with her and the rest of his students, but Ms. Jenkins decided to put all the kindergarten classes together for one big ceremony. Meaning the gym was packed with parents and overheated, but no one complained as their child crossed the stage.

"Did you see her Ty?" Josh asked, sitting back in his chair as Olivia returned to hers at the front and laced his fingers with Tyler's. His hair had grown back slightly and was a curly tuft on his head and his glasses rested on his nose. He was so handsome and it made Tyler's heart ache. He loved Josh so much and was terrified of losing him.

"I saw her honey," Tyler grinned at him, leaning over to press a kiss to Josh's smiling cheeks. It only caused him to smile more and reach over to press a lip to Tyler's lips. Both of them smiled when they heard the parents behind them scoff, and Josh pulled away from the kiss only to pull Tyler into his side firmly, hand resting on Tyler's stomach without thought.

Tyler stiffened at the touch and Josh quickly removed his hand and rested on his back. Tyler had known about the baby for three weeks now, entering into his fourth month according to his doctor, and Josh was becoming suspicious about Tyler's aversion to him touching his stomach or his chest in general. Despite it being May, close to June, Tyler was wearing a sweatshirt to hide to protruding bulge and did not want Josh touching him. Sometimes the touch was welcomed, but other times it made Tyler itch and wish he could wear his binder. Josh was going to find out soon and Tyler was terrified.

"I'm sorry darling," Josh whispered, thumb stroking his back as he pressed another kiss to Tyler's face, knocking Tyler's glasses askew for a second before fixing them for him. Tyler smiled tightly at his boyfriend and rubbed his thigh gently to assure him he was fine. Josh remained quiet for rest of the ceremony, hand firm on Tyler's back and the younger man rubbing his thigh gently. Tyler would not let this get in the way of Olivia's big day.

"O, the first grader!" Jordan and Ashley cheered as Abby lifted the girl above her head and listened to her giggles. Bill stood by with a big grin on his face. Tyler and Josh stood back while Hayley went to join the Dun siblings in cheering for their little girl. Laura hung back as well, her eyes however kept flicking towards Tyler. It made the man nervous and he subtly hid himself in Josh's side (the older man used to Tyler's behavior as of late and not questioning it) but that only made Mama Dun more suspicious.

"Josh, why don't you go get Olivia's car seat set up in your father's car?" Laura decided she had enough of watching Tyler hide behind her son and wanted her answers.

"Why can't she just ride with us?" Josh whined, holding Tyler's hip securely. Tyler was warm and soft and he didn't want to move from his side when he had not been having the greatest of months. Besides Olivia was his daughter why couldn't she ride with them to dinner? The Duns were always a very celebrative family and would celebrate any little occasion, even if it was just that their schedules all matched up to be together for dinner. Which was the case for today and because it was Olivia's 'graduation'.

"Because you get to go home with my little flower so I should be allowed to spend more time with her," Josh stared at his mother in disbelief before sighing and pressing a quick kiss to Tyler's cheek before heading back outside to comply with his mother's guilt trip. Tyler wrapped his arms around himself for security, hoping Laura would let him go, but she was a persistent woman. With one stern look, Tyler was following her into the kitchen while the others went outside to either wait or bother Josh.

The second the brunet man stepped into the kitchen after her, hands had found their way to his shirt and pulled up as gently as possible.

"Please," Tyler begged, but it was too late. His baby bump was exposed and Laura was staring at it in confusion. Her eyes also held love and hope. Her fingers were gentle, unlike Josh's, as they prodded the bump.

"You are on T?" She asked, she knew that the two things did not mix. Tyler shook his head to her question, fingers cradling his bump, the mere thought of hurting his baby like that making him uncomfortable. Laura smiled softly at the unconscious behavior, the unconscious protection.

"Not since I found out, three weeks ago. How'd you know?" He asked, his voice soft but he did not feel unsafe. He knew that Laura would never hurt him.

"Tyler, I have had four children, and I'm not oblivious like my son, I know how pregnancy looks. Though I can't say I would have ever seen it on you," she said, her statement sounding more like an unspoken question. Tyler's eyes watered, knowing what she was asking of him. She wanted to know how it happened. And so he told her. Told her about the medicine mixed up (something that caused her so much anger for Tyler's welfare) and in very little words how stupid they were to not use a condom.

"And I was gonna tell Joshie, but I am so afraid to. I wanted him to have a choice and it's too late now and," Tyler's borderline hysterical ramblings by Laura pulling him into her arms and stroking his head. Some of Tyler's hair had grown back, but he wanted to keep it shaven because it made him feel like a man without his T.

"Tyler, my Joshua would never turn you away because of this. The boy loves you more than life itself, almost more than Olivia who loves you just the same as she loves him. We all love you so much and I would never leave you all alone if my son was a man to abandon his child. But he is not and He will most likely be truly excited for this, but worried majorly about you. Any dysphoria?" Laura finished her rant with the question, knowing that Josh would call her about ask questions about how to make Tyler more comfortable when he was on his period or not feeling very masculine.

"Not more, only itches when I think of the baby coming out of me or when Josh touches my stomach, but I think that is more of guilt than him causing me to be uncomfortable. I love Josh, but he doesn't know and it makes me think that he knows, but I know I have been hiding it from him and I feel guilty," Tyler rambled once more, but Laura quietly soothed him.

"That is the real reason Olivia is gonna ride with Bill, Jordan and I while Abby could with Ashley. So you can tell Josh. I know you are scared and nervous, but Josh is going to be so excited. He was with Sarah, even though he was chest high in drugs at the time. He was so excited to be a dad and it will be the same this time I promise you," Laura pressed a kiss to his head and spent a few more minutes rubbing his stomach, soothing the moving baby within. He was upset that she was the first person to feel the baby moving and not Josh and decided that she was right. Josh should be experiencing the firsts with him.

Laura quickly pulled down Tyler's shirt and moved back just in time for Josh to come into the kitchen seeking his boyfriend.

"There you are," Josh smiled, wrapping his arms (careful of Tyler's stomach) around Tyler and kissing his neck. He gazed between them curiously.

"Were you talking about me?" He accused, looking at his mother, knowing that she could pushy when she wanted.

"Of course not Joshua, now let's get going now! Remember what we talked about Ty," Laura smiled, pressing kisses to both of their cheeks before heading out of the house. Josh looked at Tyler in confusion, but he just waved him off and pulled him outside. Luckily, they had taken Tyler's car earlier, the picture of their baby within the glove compartment. With a quick kiss to Olivia, they got into Tyler's car, Josh behind the wheel and Tyler with his eyes on the glove compartment.

The other two cars drove away, but Tyler paused Josh with a gentle hand to his wrist. Josh looked at Tyler in confusion, bringing Tyler's knuckles up to his lips to kiss them.

"What's the matter honey? I'm worried about you," he admitted, blinking when Tyler placed his hand on his stomach underneath his shirt. It was firmer than Josh would have expected, almost like Sarah's stomach had been when she was pregnant. But that couldn't be.

Or at least that is what he thought before Tyler pulled out a little picture from his glove compartment and passed it over to Josh. He stared at the familiar sonogram picture in his hand, his fingers pressing firmly into Tyler's stomach as realization flooded him. Something moved under his hand and he knew it wasn't Tyler's breathing. The thought was solidified.

"I'm pregnant."
