Baby/Wedding Shower

The next day was their baby shower/wedding shower.

"Danny, is it sad that we're having a baby/wedding shower before our graduation party?"
"No!  And would you stop talking like that?!  It happened Jess.  We shouldn't have any regrets.  Just be happy and deal with our future."
"I'm out regretting anything, Danny.  I'm just saying.." She sits on the bed and sighs.
Danny sits beside her and wraps his arm around her.
"I'm sorry I haven't been pleasant to be around, I'm just so stressed."
"It's okay, I still love being around you." He hugs her tighter.
"I love you, baby girl, and I just want you to be happy.  This should be a happy time, not a sad time!"
"I know, I'm sorry."
"Stop apologising!"
"Okay, I'm sorry!" She looks at him and laughs.
His eyes widen and he cocks his head at her, making her laugh harder.
"What did I say?!" He plays.
"Ahh!  I'm sorry!" She says as he lays her on her back and tickles her.
"Say it!  Say it one more time!"
"IIIIII..."
"You what?"
Jessica laughs and says, "IIIIII.. Have to pee!"
"Oop!  Let her go!  This one pees herself!" He moves to let her go.
Jessica cracks up and runs to the bathroom.

All of Jessica and Danny's family and friends were at the shower.
"Jessica!  You're getting married, girl!  Are you excited for the honeymoon?" A friend asks.
"Well we're not really going on one."
"Why not?!"
"Well because it's getting too close to my due date, and plus we need all the money we have for the girls."
"So you're just gonna get married and be back at school on Monday?"
"Yeah." She chuckles.
"Seriously?"
"Bailey if we want to graduate, then yes!" Danny laughs.
"Yeah, beside.. none of that really matters.  Danny and I will have that time one day." Jessica hold his hand and looks up at him.
"Awe, you two are so sweet!"
"Thanks!" Jessica giggles and crinkles her nose.

During the shower Jessica kept getting really bad pains in her stomach.
"Danny, I don't feel well." She pulls on his arm.
"What's wrong, are you okay?"
"My stomach hurts.  I keep getting pains that come and go."
"Oh my God!  That can't be good!  Where's your mom?" He panics.
"I don't know, she's around here somewhere."
"Well you sit down and I'll go get her!"

"Mrs. Dee!"
"What?" She turns to him.
"Jessie's having pains, and she just doesn't look well."
"Where is she?"
"The kitchen."

Dorothy walks into the kitchen and says, "Honey, what's wrong?"
"I don't know, it hurts." She makes a sad face.
Dorothy puts her hand on her stomach and asks, "On a scale of one to ten."
"I don't know.. Bad?"
"You never were good at that, were you?  Anyway, sweetie, it's probably just Braxton hicks."
"What's that?"
"Isn't she a singer?" Danny asks.
"That's Toni Braxton!  Braxton hicks are contractions you get weeks to months before you have the baby.  It's just your body's way of preparing you for labor."
"So she's okay?"
"She's fine!  It just means you're a little closer to meeting your girls." She smiles.
Jessica chuckles nervously and says, "Thanks, mom."
"No problem!  Now who wants some cake?" Jessica's face lights up and Danny says, "I do!"
Jessica looks at him and laughs.
"My big baby!" She hugs him.

They had tons of presents, so they started opening them right after they cut the cake.

"What is this?" Danny holds up a breast pump.
"I don't know... It looks like a beer bong.. A small one..."
"For a baby?!" Danny's eyes widen.
"I don't know!  We're not old enough to drink, and they really aren't old enough!"
Dorothy laughs and says, "Sweetie, that's a breast pump!"
"For who's boobs?!" Her eyes widen.
"Yours, Jessica."
"Oh my gosh, mom, you really didn't prepare me for any of this stuff."
"I'm sorry, Jessica, I thought we'd have a little more time, now stop talking and finish opening your gifts!"

Danny seems kind of out of it, and Jessica was a little spaced.
Seeing all of these baby things was making it all seem more real, and kinda scary.

They were excited and appreciative, but they couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed.
They both tried hard not to look too freaked out, because they didn't want to seem ungrateful.

"Awe!  Look at these little outfits, Danny!" Jessica says in a high pitched voice, as she holds them up.
"Oh my gosh, those are so cute!  I can't believe we're gonna have two little people to take care of that are that small!"
Jessica presses her hand on the top of her stomach and let's out a deep breath, "Scary, isn't it?" She smiles with a worried look in her eyes.
"Yeah..."
Both of their eyes were wide, and Dorothy could tell it was a little overwhelming for the both of them.
"Alright, why don't you two finish opening these later?  There's a lot, and we still have another game to play!"
"Yes.. That-that sounds good.  Let me just say something really quick.." Jessica stands up and takes a deep breath.

"Um, thank you all so much for everything, Danny and I really appreciate it.  Not only the gifts, but thank you all so much for the support you have given us.   These past few months have been.. Well crazy to say the least.  But we have an amazing family, and some great friends.  I know we're young, and by the look on our faces, I'm sure you can tell that it's all a bit overwhelming for us, but we are grateful.. And we are happy.  I can't wait to be this amazing young man's wife." She smiles at Danny and holds his hand for a second.
"And I cannot wait to be these two amazing little girl's mommy.  Being pregnant at such a young age hasn't been easy.. With morning sickness and finals.. Planing a wedding and having homework, while having backaches and absolutely no energy at all.. It's tough, but we have a lot of help.  Our parents have been great.  Mr. And Mrs. Huston, thank you for being so understanding, and for accepting me into your family.  Thank you to Danny's siblings for treating me like a sister.. And thanks to my family I love all of my siblings, but Jane... Jane, thank you so much.  You were with me at the start of all of this and not once judged me. 
Daddy.." She smiles and looks at Albert.
"No matter what.. I'll always be your little girl.  No matter how much I grow-" She rubs her stomach and everyone laughs and she continues, "I'll still always be your little girl."
Albert tears up and Jessica looks to her mom, "Mom.  Hah!  What would we do without you?  First of all, you've helped Danny through every one of his panic attacks!"
Danny chuckles and looks down.
"But you've been so incredible.. We love you and owe you so so much, mom."
Dorothy smiles and wipes her eyes.
"I also want to think my best friend, Sarah.  This girl has been with me since I was four years old.  She's always had my back, and I love her so much for that.  Sarah, just know that nothing and no one can change the bond that we share... I love you, girl." She smiles and a single tear escapes her eye.
"I love you too, boo." Sarah says with a shaky voice.

" *Sighs* And lastly, I want to think my handsome fiancé.  Daniel.. When I met you, I was a shy and nervous girl that thought she never had a chance with the best player on the football team.. You are my star, baby... And I know that you will make all of your dreams come true.  Always know that you have three cheerleaders that will cheer you on in any decision you ever make in life.  I love you with all my heart.. And I cannot wait to see how amazing of a daddy you are to our girls.  Emilia and Elaina are so lucky to have you as their daddy."
Danny smiles and stands up.
"You are so so incredible." He hugs her and lays his head on her shoulder as everyone let's out a long, "Awww!"
