"Do you find out today?" Kendall asked excitedly.

"Yes but I'm telling Calum first so settle." I laughed and got all of my stuff together.

"What that's not fair. I'm gonna be the godmother I should know first." She whined.

"He's going to be the actual dad Kenny it's completely fair." I laughed and shook my head at her.

"This is bullshit. I live with you I should know first. I've also known you longer." She argued.

"All of your arguments are shit." I said  as I grabbed my keys.

"Can I come?" She asked.

"No then you'll know first." I chuckled and headed towards the door while she groaned.

"I hate you for this." She shouted while I shook my head.

"Keep an eye on Noah for me!" I yelled as I headed out the door.

"How are you Brenna?" Dr. Stevens asked as she brought me into an exam room.

"I'm good, how are you?" I asked as I sat up on the bed.

"I'm good. You're a lot bigger than the last time I saw you, take that as a compliment by the way." She said with a chuckle.

"This little nugget likes to eat, takes after their mother." I said which made her laugh a little.

"Alright well why don't you lay down and we'll see what's going on in there? Are you interested in finding out the gender today?" She asked and I eagerly nodded my head.

"Okay so we've got ten fingers and ten toes which is definitely a good sign. Well Brenna... it looks like you'll be having a little girl." She said with a smile and showed me the screen.

"I'm having a girl? Seriously?" I said in surprise and sat up a bit.

"Yep it's a girl." She said and moved the little wand around on my stomach.

"Oh my god." I said excitedly.

"Have you felt her move at all?" She asked.

"No not yet." I said.

"That's okay, it's still a bit early. She'll get moving soon." She said and kept looking at the screen.

"I'll go get you some pictures and you're good to go." She said and cleaned off my stomach before leaving the room.

  When she came back she handed me the pictures and walked me out. I made my next appointment for sometime next month and headed to see Calum as fast as I could, without speeding too much.

"How are you my love?" Calum asked and pecked my lips as I got closer to him.

"I'm good, tired and a little hungry but when am I not? Have you been behaving yourself in there?" I asked and sat down next to him.

"Of course I am, I need to get out as soon as possible. How's my little nugget?" He looked down at my stomach and gently placed his hand on the small bump that had grown.

"She's good." I said and watched the entire thing process in his brain. At first it didn't connect and he was just neutral but then once it connected his eyes widened.

"She? It's a girl? We're having a baby girl?" He spat out quickly.

"It's a girl look." I said and showed him the pictures I got from the doctor.

"Our nugget's a girl." He said in awe which made me smile. He carefully put the pictures down on the table and went down on his knees next to me. I knew he was going to start talking to her, he talked to her every time he saw me which was always the cutest thing. Except before we didn't know what we were having.

  He crossed his arms over my legs and rested his chin on his arms so he was facing my stomach. I played with his long black curls mostly because they were always soft and fluffy and I didn't get to touch them as much anymore.

"Hey baby girl, it's your daddy-"

"Calum don't say that it sounds weird." I laughed which made him roll his eyes.

"It's only weird because you're making it weird. She's my little girl and I'm her daddy, take it literally and stop being nasty." He said seriously which made me laugh.

"As I was saying before your mummy cut me off... actually I kind of forget, but I'll improvise. I love you so much, and I always will. No matter how many other little babies me and your mummy have I'll always love you. I'm going to protect you and your mummy for the rest of my life. You're my favorite little person on the planet, even if you aren't technically here yet. I can't wait to meet you baby girl. You're going to be so beautiful, just like mummy." He said softly and leaned his head on my stomach as he spoke. I felt my heart melt with every single word, like it always did whenever he talked to her.

  Except this time I felt something else, that wasn't always there before. I don't even know how to describe this feeling but I've never felt it before.

"She just kicked me didn't she?" He asked and lifted his head from my stomach.

"Is that what that was?" I asked with a laugh.

"Our daughter just kicked me in the face B." He said which made me laugh hysterically.

"I'm sure she was just telling you she loved you too." I laughed and rubbed his cheek.

"She's gonna be a football player I'm calling it." He said firmly and placed his hand on my stomach.

"It's soccer Cal." I said matter of factly.

"Americans are the only ones that call it soccer so obviously you're wrong." He stated and looked down at my stomach.

"I've got some name ideas already." I said after a few seconds.

"How the fuck? Already?" He asked with raised eyebrows.

"Yeah I get bored so I look some stuff up. I need more research though so I don't know yet. And at least now I know it's a girl so that'll make it easier." I said and shrugged my shoulders.

"Alright well you come up with the names and I'll give approval or not." He said and I nodded my head.

"I love you Brenna." He said with a small smile and looked into my eyes.

"I love you more." I said and leaned in for a quick kiss.
