Chapter 4

Previously on Senior Year...

"You're having..."

"Triplets!" the doctor said, and Corki's eyes went wide.

"Triplets?" she asked, and she sounded weak. "I think I'm gonna.."

She fainted into Jared's arms. He shook her gently. "Corki Baby, wake up," he said gently.

Corki woke up. "Wh-what happened?" she asked.

"You fainted when we found out we were having triplets," he replied, setting her back into her chair gently. "Are you okay?"

"Yes, I think so," Corki replied. "Just shocked I guess."

"Well, congratulations," the doctor said. "Here are the papers, the genders of the babies are in there."

"Thank you," Jared said, and helped Corki out of the hospital and into his car.

He smiled at her as he got into the driver's seat. "Hey Cork, we're gonna be parents," he said.

Corki giggled. "I know," she said. "I'm so excited, but I'm also scared, are we ready for this?"

Jared put his hand on Corki's. "Yes, and Hannah said she'll help with the baby, I can't wait to tell her there are three!" he replied.

Corki nodded. "Hey, do you want to come see the house?" Jared asked.

"Sure," Corki replied. "It's Saturday, so I don't have any classes."

The pair drove to the house. It was a bigger house right outside of LA. The outside looked like a regular medium sized house. Jared opened the door for his girlfriend. "Hannah! We're home!" he called.

The sixteen-year-old slid down the railing on the stairs. "What's the news?!" she asked. "You are killing me!"

"We're having triplets!" Jared replied.

Hannah's eyes went wide, and she hugged Corki and Jared. "This is awesome!" she said.

"Come on," Jared said to Hannah. "Let's show Corki the house."

After giving the grand tour, Jared said he was going to fix lunch for the trio. Hannah decided to ask Corki some questions. "Do you know what gender they're going to be?" she asked.

"Well," she said. "We have the papers, but I don't want to see what gender it is just yet."

"I know a way you could!" Hannah exclaimed.

"How?" she asked.

"Just trust me," Hannah replied. "I'll get the papers, and then I have the perfect idea."

"Okay," Corki replied, handing Hannah the sealed envelope.

Hannah squealed and ran upstairs. Jared came into the room with three grilled-cheese sandwiches. "Did she leave?" he asked.

"Yup," Corki replied, giggling.

"Hannah! You're food is gonna get cold!" Jared called.

Hannah came running downstairs, the envelope nowhere to be found. She sat down with Corki and the three ate their lunch. Jared then called the school to make sure they knew Corki would be staying the night, even though he couldn't keep her there full-time yet.

That night, Hannah went to bed early, claiming she was just tired. She said goodnight to Corki and Jared, and soon ran up to her room. She closed the door and opened up the sealed envelope. After seeing the genders, she sighed. "Okay, I can work with this," she said.

She took out her notebook and began sketching, then writing a plan. She smiled as she finished, and fell asleep.

Hannah woke up way later than usual. It was eleven am before she opened her eyes. She yawned, and realized Corki was at her doorframe. "Morning sleepyhead," she said teasingly.

Hannah giggled. "Are you okay?" Corki asked. "You went to bed early last night, then you woke up late today."

"I'm fine," Hannah assured her. "Just tired I guess."

Corki nodded, sitting on the edge of Hannah's bed. The sixteen year old sat up and hugged Corki. "Thanks," she said.

"For what?" Corki asked.

"Letting me stay here," she replied.

"No problem," Corki replied. "But it's kinda Jared who did that."

"Yeah," she replied. "But Jared wasn't sure you were gonna like me staying here."

"I wouldn't want you anywhere else," Corki assured her.

Hannah giggled. Corki left and Hannah for ready for the day. There was a knock at the front door. Hannah looked though the peephole, then opened the door. "Saylor!" she yelled.

"Hannah!" she replied.

The two hugged. "I have missed you so much," Saylor said.

"Me too," Hannah said.

"So, what'd you call for?"

"I got a great idea for Corki and Jared."

"About the baby?"

"Yeah, about that, come with me upstairs."

Saylor followed Hannah upstairs. She shut the door behind her. "Ready to know what gender the babies are?" Hannah asked.

"Babies?" Saylor asked.

"Oh right," Hannah said. "You don't know. You cannot tell the other girls yet. Corki is having triplets."

"What?!" Saylor almost yelled.

Hannah covered her mouth, then whispered to Saylor the genders of the babies. Saylor's eyes went wide.

Hannah then explained her plan. They would get a three layer cake, and each layer would either have pink or blue inside. That would determine what gender each baby was.

"That is a great idea!" Saylor said. "But can I add one thing?"

"What?" Hannah asked.

"We should have a surprise party with the cake!"

"Awesome!" Hannah replied. "But how would we get Jared and Corki out of the house?"

"We could get Caleb, Dylan, and Ricky to keep Jared away, and the girls could keep Corki out," Saylor replied.

"Perfect," Hannah said. "When?"

"Friday night," Saylor replied. "It's Jared's birthday."

"Great idea!" Hannah said. "Let's call the girls and guys."

After they called everybody, Hannah and Saylor proceeded to call the bakery, Corki and Jared's favorite, and got a cake with buttercream icing.

After they finished that, it was already one o'clock. Hannah fell back on her bed. "You okay?" Saylor asked.

"Wiped," Hannah replied. "I don't know what it is. I've just been really tired lately."

Saylor smiled at her best friend. "K," she said. "Want me to get Jared or something?"

"Nah," she replied. "I'm fine. It's not like I'm sick or anything."

Hannah sat up. Saylor and her went downstairs. "Hey girls," Jared said. "Saylor, I didn't know you were here."

"I was just helping her with homework," Hannah said quickly.

Jared nodded. "You guys want to get something to eat?" he asked.

"Sure," Hannah replied. "Where?"

"How about pizza?" Jared asked.

"Sure," the two girls said in union, then giggled.

You guys can go ahead and kill me now. You still don't know the genders! (Well, a few of you do). It will be on the next chapter, don't worry. Don't forget to comment and vote.

Thank you and Lacey! ☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺
