November 1st.

"Gigi, I'm gonna need you to have my baby already." Isla sighs as she walks over to Catherine who sat on the couch.

Catherine chuckles. "Oh baby girl, if only it were that easy!  See, babies come when they're ready.  And Holly just isn't ready to come out yet."

"She is taking YEARS to come out!"

Catherine laughs and looks at Jessica.

"Well Miss Isla." She says turning her attention back to the child. "I remember a little girl just a few years ago taking her sweet time to join the family too!"

"Who?!"

"You!"

"ME?!"

"Yes You!" Jessica says. "I was at school on my due date!"

"I still can't believe that." Catherine pouts.

"I know!  I was miserable." Jessica says with a sad pout.

"My poor baby."

"Mommy, why you didn't got me out before?"

"Because you wanted to stay in there!"

Isla cracks up laughing and throws her upper body on the couch.

"I was in so much pain.  I was so young and so tiny.  And you felt so big!  You moved constantly!"

Isla stands up and looks her mother in the eyes. "Well. . Sorry!"

Jessica giggles and sits her on her lap. "It's okay baby girl.  I'd do it over and over again just to have you."

"Do it again so I can have a baby too!" Isla smiles.

"No, no, no." Jessica laughs and nods her head. "Not for like ten years!"

"What?!  But mommy I'll be one hundred then!"

"Not quite." Jessica gives her s cute look.

Just then Sarah walks down.

"Hey Sar!  You got home early last night.  How was the party?" Jessica asks.

"It was fine!  I was just so tired."

"Are you pregnant?" Catherine asks in a loud tone.

Isla gasps and smiles big. "Aunt Sarah's having a baby?!"

"No way, little one!" Sarah says loudly. "I just didn't feel like staying, Mom.  Gosh."

Jessica giggles. "Hey Sar, you wanna go to the mall today?  It's been so long since we've hung out.  I do have to bring little miss though so I hope you don't mind." Jessica chuckles.

"Well actually. . ." Sarah thinks about the plans she made with Evan.  She then looks into Jessica's sweet innocent eyes.  She smiles and says, "I'd love to!  And having Isla along will be fun!"

"YEAH!" Isla lifts her hands in the air.

Jessica laughs then turns to Sarah. "Great!  We can go right after we have breakfast!  Will you be okay here, Momma?"

"Oh yes.  I have your father here to irritate."

Jessica laughs and kisses her mother's cheek. "Give him hell, Mamacita."

A couple hours later.

"I really don't like being in this buggy." Isla looks down, taps her hands on the stroller and kicks her legs.  "I have feet, momma.  I can walk."

Jessica laughs. "I know you do, silly.  I just don't want to lose you."

"You won't!"

"Isla, take advantage of it now." Sarah says. "I would love to sit and have someone push me around the mall."

"Well get in and I push you." Isla smiles.

Sarah laughs and nods. "I don't think so."

**

"This brings back so many memories.  Remember when you passed out at the mall?"

"Yes!  I remember how sick I was!  My poor little body just couldn't take it anymore with all the throwing up, and the headaches."

"I was so worried about you."

"I know. ."

Isla kicked her legs in the stroller and looked around.

"Who knew you had this perfect little bean cooking in there."

Jessica chuckles. "Yep.  It's crazy!"

"Then we came here when you were about to pop."

Jessica laughs. "We sure did. . Remember I picked that swimsuit out for Danny's birthday party?" She smiles.

"Yes!  Dude, your boobs looked so good!"

"Ugh I know!  I want those back!" Jessica laughs.

Sarah laughs and the girls continue walking.

"Danny couldn't stop staring at my boobs that day." Jessica laughs.

"Gosh he loved them!  But Danny still loves my boobs.  Even though they aren't as big anymore. . . That boy loves me." Jessica says with a beautiful happy smile. "I don't deserve that big teddy bear."

"He's gross." Sarah says.

"Sarah stop!  I love him and he is Not gross!"

"He's my cousin though, Jess.  I have to say that!"

"Well it's not true!  He's so handsome!" Jessica smiles while Sarah fake gags.

"Oh shut up!" Jessica makes a face and elbows her sister.

**

Later that evening.

"Hey we're back!  Ooh mom, are you okay?"

"Yeah." Catherine answers with a painful face.

"She's been having contractions since you girls left." Doug responds.

"Why didn't you call us?" Sarah asks.

"Because they're not consistent, and honestly honey, I just wanted some quiet time."

"Oh. . Well do you think it's time?"

"How far apart are your contractions?" Jessica asks.

"Ten minutes.  I still have a while.  I'm about to go upstairs to try to get some rest.

"Yes, yes, yes.  You rest up, momma.  We're okay down here." Jessica smiles sweetly.

"Okay.  Just call me if you need anything. . Did you girls find anything at the mall?"

"I found a lot for Isla and Holly.  Not much for me." Jessica says.

"Aw sweetie, treat yourself!"

"I tried!"

"What did you find for the girls?" Catherine smiles and gets excited to see the girls' clothes.

"I found them some cute little matching outfits!" Jessica smiles.

"Aww!"

"They're going to be so cute!"

Monday morning.

Unfortunately Catherine's pains didn't last long.  She was upset, but knew baby girl just needed a little more time.

This morning Doug dropped Isla off at school, but not before taking her to breakfast just them two.

"Poppy, I like having a morning date with you!" Isla smiles.

"Me too, baby girl!  How do you like those pancakes?"

"They're delicious!"

"Good!"

"Poppy?"

"Yes?"

"When Holly comes out. . ."

"Yeah?"

"Will you still take me on Isla and Poppy dates?"

"Of course I will, Isla!"

"You'll still love me even if you have a new baby?"

"Absolutely!  You're my favorite granddaughter!"

Isla gasps. "Your FAVORITE?!"

"YES!"

"Wow!"

Doug smiles.  He loved this little girl so much.  She always had a way of making his day.

Jessica's POV.

"Dad sent me so many pictures of him and Isla." Jessica chuckles. "He's so cute with her."

"Yeah he definitely like her better than us." Sarah says.

"Aw." Jessica laughs. "A grandchild is different though."

"That's true.  He can have fun with her and when she gets cranky she's your problem and not his!"

"Exactly!"

"Hi Jessica!"

"Oh!  Hi Kelsey." She smiles.

"My little sister is having her birthday party on Saturday and I wanted to see if you and Danny wanted to bring Isla."

"Aw." Jessica looks to Danny and smiles.

"She's turning seven and there will be a petting zoo there.  She'll have so much fun!"

"Thank you so much for inviting us!  If my mom isn't having our sister that day then we'll be there.  Right, honey?" Jessica smiles to Danny.

"Yep!"

Jessica giggles and places her hand on his thigh.

After Kelsey leaves Jessica smiles and says, "Did you hear that?  She wanted to know if you and I wanted to bring Isla.  We are such a couple, babe!"

Danny chuckles and wraps his arm around her. "You know she's gonna be terrified, don't you?"

"Oh absolutely!"

Danny laughs then kisses her lips before they turn back to Sarah.

"Hey Sar?" Danny says.

"Yeah?"

"Ass face is coming over."

"What?" Sarah looks over her shoulder and sees Evan walking over. "Oh damn!"

"What's going on?" Jessica asks.

"Nothing.  I'm gonna go." Sarah grabs her things.

"Sarah, what's wrong?"

"nothing, I'm just not in the mood for him."

"He's only going to follow you, do you want me to go with you?" She asks.

"No, it's okay.  Thank you though."

Jessica sighs and sits back.  Danny then looks down to her and makes a face. "Forget about her and kiss me, my darling." He says in a accent

Jessica laughs and Danny presses his lips onto his.

**

Sarah walked down the hall and she heard a voice from behind.

"Hey!  You trying to avoid me?"

"Yes!"

Evan grabs her arm and roughly pins her to the lockers.

"Evan, Stop!"

Evan kisses her lips and Sarah reaches up and scratches his cheek.

"What the hell?" Evan places his hand on his face.

"I want you to leave me alone.  I don't want to see you."

"Baby. . Come on, I miss you."

"You don't."

"I doooo!"

Sarah rolls her eyes and sighs.

"You miss me too, don't lie."

"Evan." Sarah turns her face.

Evan grabs her chin and turns her face to his. "You want to smile so bad.  I can see it!"

Sarah cracks a smile and pushes him off of her. "I do miss you, You Jerk!"

Evan laughs. "I knew it.  Wanna fool around in my car after school?"

Sarah laughs just inches from his lips. "You are such a romantic, aren't you?"

"I am, I am."

"Hey Sarah!" They hear a voice.

It was Sam.  He stood in the hall with a smile on his face.

Sarah rolls her eyes and she and Evan begin walking down the hall.  The two walk passed and Evan hits his books making them fall out of his hands and onto the floor.

Sarah laughs and shoves Sam. "Dork!"

Sam's smile fades and he picks up his things.

Evan and Sarah laugh as they walk down the hall.

Sam wasn't upset Evan knocked his books out of his hands, or that Sarah called him a dork, or even that they were laughing about it.  That was all childish and it didn't bother him.  What bothered him was seeing Sarah back with Evan.  Sam knew Evan didn't care about Sarah.  He had a bad feeling things weren't going to end well with him.
