*After dinner*
Tessa: Emery help with bring the dishes in!
Emery: Fine, coming mom.
Carol: I'm going to start heading to bed after my shower, Tessa. See you in the morning!
Tessa: Goodnight mother.
*Two hours later after Emery and Carol go to sleep*
Tessa: Did you hear that noise Hardin?
Hardin: What is it Tessa?
Tessa: I don't know it sounds like it's coming from outside.
Hardin: I hear it now, it sounds like-
A knock at the door makes Tessa and Hardin look at eachother.
Tessa: I'll answer it Hardin.
Hardin: No Tessa just stay here.
Hardin walks to the door and opens it to see a drunk Molly and Logan. They stumble in and Tessa see's other people starting to arrive. Once Molly and Logan get in, Tessa soon realizes that the group from college are entering the home.
Hardin: What the heck? What is everyone doing here?
Tessa: Hardin kick them out.
Hardin: Guys get out of my house now.
Molly: Oh lighten up Hardin. We're just here to have some fun.
Hardin: You can't be here, there's people asleep upstairs.
Molly: Oh right! Did everybody know that Hardin and Tessa have a kid? Oh yeah she's such a sweetie, why don't we see her?
Tessa: She's asleep you du-
Hardin: Tessa i'll get them to get out, just stay upstairs please.
Tessa holds her stomach because of the bump.
Molly: Hold on, Tessa are you pregnant?
Logan: Well obviously, Molly. Why would you think she has a pregnancy bump?
Hardin: Could you guys just get out?
Zed: The party has just arrived!
Hardin: Is that. Zed?
Tessa: Hardin don't.
Zed: Oh no why didn't you guys tell me that this is their house?
Molly: Oh come on if we told you then you would have never came!
Zed: I'm leaving and so is everybody else. Come on guys.
The group starts to leave.
Hardin: Logan could you do me a favor and take your girlfriend somewhere that isn't here? Thanks.
They both start to leave but Molly says something.
Molly: Good luck Tessa, soon you'll remember what happened in college with Hardin. Maybe you'll realize that he's not the right one.
Tessa: Oh shut up Molly, you're just upset that Hardin doesn't want to be anywhere near you.
Molly: Sure that's the reason.
She smirks as Hardin closes the door on her face.
Hardin: I hate her
Tessa: So do I, let's go check on Emery.
We go upstairs to see Emery asleep in her bed. I smile at Hardin as we walk to our room. We get into bed and before Hardin falls asleep he says something.
Hardin: Auden and Landon.
Tessa: What?
Hardin: The baby names, Auden and Landon.
Tessa: You want to name our son after Landon?
Hardin nods and I smile before he falls asleep.
