Baby
"Jessica, thank you so much for inviting us!"
"You're welcome! Thank you for coming." Jessica smiles to her friends.
"Of course! Isla, Happy Birthday!"
Isla looks at them shyly and lays her head on her mother's shoulder.
"She's shy." Jessica chuckles. "Isla, say thank you."
"It's okay, sweet girl. We'll see y'all." The young girl smiles.
Jessica then walks back to the living room.
"Mrs. Huston, are you okay?" She asks when she sees Zoe breathing heavily.
"She's having another pain." Danny says.
"Mommy's tummy hurts! Her baby's gonna fall out of her butt!" Levi says.
"Oh is it?" Jessica couldn't help but laugh.
"She's had quite a few." Jessica says to Danny. "Maybe baby Huston is finally making their entrance."
"Maybe so."
The Huston's hung out for a while, and Zoe's contractions kept coming consistently.
"I think it's baby time." Jessica says with a sleeping Isla on her chest.
"I think so. Sis, are you okay to keep the kids?"
"These stinky boys?" Catherine jokes. "Just playing, I'll keep em!"
"Thank you."
"This is taking me back to when Isla was coming." Jessica pouts. "Hey at least you know your water isn't going to break in school!" She smiles to Zoe.
"Oh you poor thing!"
"That was stressful too!" Danny says.
"You really had it rough when Jessica gave birth, didn't you, Daniel?" Zoe says before she sighs and looks down. "I'm gonna go to the restroom. I'm pretty sure mine just broke."
"Woah!" Jessica's eyes widen. "Just like that? And she's so calm? I was loosing my S-H-I-T." Jessica spells out.
Danny chuckles and Jessica's cuteness before nodding. "No you were strong, Jessie."
"Aw, thank you!"
John walked away from the group and followed his wife.
"I feel so bad for your mother having to go through all that pain.. but God am I glad it's not me!"
Danny laughs.
"That really hurt! It was the worst pain I've ever felt in my entire life."
"I cannot even imagine."
"I know, cause it looked horrible!" Sarah says. "I mean Beautiful.. but horrible! Especially when she was just there and not moving at all, and you were just screaming."
Jessica shakes her head. "Yeah. I'm glad that's over!" She laughs.

Later that night Danny, Jessica, and Sarah sat in Jessica's bed talking and watching tv. Lately Isla only nurses at night, so she was up and wanting to be fed.
Jessica covered herself, but Isla hated it and constantly kept pulling it off.
"I'll just turn this way so you don't have to worry about it." Danny chuckles.
"I'm sorry."
"Don't worry about it. I don't like eating in the dark either!"
Jessica giggles and looks down to Isla as she eats.
"Mama!" She says before biting down hard.
"OW!"
"What happened?"
"She almost took Jessica's nipple off." Sarah says.
"Ouch!"
"Isla, no ma'am! No more milkies if you're gonna bite me!"
Isla pouted her lips and cried.
"Aw you hurt her feelings, Jess!" Sarah pouts.
"So? She hurt my booby!"
**
That night the three kids didn't get much sleep. They wanted to stay up and get updates from the hospital. Meanwhile, the twins and Isla all slept peacefully.
"I wonder what the baby is.." Jessica says.
"I think it's a boy. My poor mom wants a girl so bad.... I love her, but I'd laugh so hard if it was another boy."
"I think it's a girl. And that's great because you already know everything about having a little girl because you help out so much with Isla." Jessica says.
"That's true. It'll be really weird to have a little sister though."
"Do they have any names picked out?" Sarah asks.
"They wouldn't tell me."
Jessica laughs and stares up to the ceiling. "Oh gosh I'm so tired. Today was a good day. So much better than this time last year. The birth of my child was an amazing experience even as painful as it was, but what came after was a nightmare."
"But you got through it and look at y'all now." Sarah says.
Jessica smiles. "Yep! I have my girl with me, and I have a great family.. I love you guys." Jessica takes their hands.
"We love you too, Jess."
"Promise me we'll be best friends forever."
"We promise."
"Forever Jess." Danny looks into her eyes.
Jessica smiles and gets lost in his brown eyes.
Danny smiles and kisses her forehead.
Jessica giggles and scoots closer to him.
"Umm." Sarah makes a face. "Should I leave?"
"Yes please." Danny says.
Jessica laughs and pinches his side.
"Ow!" He laughs.
"We're just sleepy. Everyone cuddles when they're sleepy! You want me to cuddle with you?"
"I really don't." Sarah says making Jessica laugh once again.

The next morning.
Danny walked downstairs with Isla on his hip following the girls.
Catherine, Doug, and the twins were already down and having breakfast.
"Good morning!" Jessica smiles. "Has Mrs. Huston had the baby yet?"
"She had the baby!" Catherine shouts with excitement.
"Woah! Really? That fast?" Danny asks.
"I feel that was a dig at me." Jessica makes a face at him.
"No!" Danny laughs. "I just thought it'd be a while! What is it?"
"She won't tell me! But we'll head over there once y'all eat something."
"We big brothers today, Danny!" Thomas smiles.
"I know! Welcome to the club, big guys!"
"Thanks!" Levi smiles and sticks a pancake in his mouth.
**
Jessica carried Isla who was dressed in a pink dress and little white sweater, some white knitted tights to keep her legs warm, the cutest little pink shoes, and of course a pink bow in her hair.
"Dan? Dan, Mama?" Isla points to the room Danny was in.
"He's gonna go see his baby brother or sister!" Jessica smiles.
"Baby?"
"Yeah, isn't that exciting?"
"No." Isla nods.
Jessica laughs and kisses her cheek. "Well who's a little stink? You are!"
"Noooo!" Isla grabbed her mother and laughed.
"Yes you are!"
"Mama Tink!"
"Mama's not a stink!"
"YEA!"
"You silly girl!"

Danny's POV.
"We gonna meet our baby, Danny?" Thomas looks up to his big brother.
"Yep!"
"The baby's a boy?" Levi asks.
"We'll have to see, bud. It could be a girl."
"Oh NOOOO!" Levi covers his face with his free hand.
Danny chuckles and walks in to see his mother holding his brand new sibling.
"Hi." Danny smiles.
"Hi my babies!" Zoe smiles big.
"Babyyyy!" Levi points.
"Let me see it!" Thomas shouts.
Zoe giggles as John lifts the twins.
"Boys.. Say hello to your brand new baby sister.. Anjelica Remy Huston."
