Annie's POV

I still can't believe I'm about to have triplets! It's a really good thing that there's family nearby, because Hayden and I couldn't take care of three babies alone.

I walk through the nursery. The cribs are neatly made, pacifiers, toys, and clothes stored in the closet. The triplets are going to be in a good, safe home.

Allie's POV

I walked out of West Severn High School, satisfied with how my first day went. Hayley pulled up in front and I sat down in the front seat, buckling my seatbelt.

"Are you excited? We're going to be aunts any day now!" Hayley asked me, pulling away from the school.

"That's crazy," I shook my head.

My phone buzzed.

hey can you come over? Hayden's going to Wegmans and doesn't want to leave me here alone

"Hayley, go to Annie's instead of our house, Hayden's going to the store," I turned my screen off.

"Okay," She switched lanes.

Once arriving at Annie's apartment, we walked up a short set of stairs and knocked on the door. Hayden answered.

"Great, you're here. Bye Ans!" He called behind him.

"Bye Summerall!" I heard Annie yell back.

Hayley hadn't seen Annie in a little while since she was a French exchange student for two weeks in Paris, so Hayley talked to Annie while I helped organize and clean things around the apartment.

In the living room, I looked at some pictures. In a two-slot glass frame, there was a picture of fifteen-year-old Annie and Hayden posing together, back when they first met and were just good friends. In the second slot, there's a picture of Annie standing on her tiptoes, kissing a laughing Hayden on the cheek. The second photo was taken about a year ago.

I smiled. The two had been together for seven years. They should just get married already.

Once I finished straightening up the living room, I went to Annie and Hayden's bedroom.

"Hey Annie, do you want anything from the kitchen?" I asked.

"Yeah. Grab the whipped cream can and some of those red pepper olives; the olives are in the olive bar container," Annie replied.

"Whipped cream on olives?!" I asked in disgust.

"Ew, no. I eat them separately," She scrunched her nose and laughed.

I grabbed them from the fridge and gave them to her. She placed the container of olives on the night stand and ate the whipped cream straight from the can. I don't blame her.

"Those are some weird pregnancy cravings," Hayley laughed at Annie popping an olive in her mouth.

"Yeah, I've started eating tomatoes," she nodded her head.

"Tomatoes?! You've always hated those!" Hayley raised her eyebrows. My jaw dropped.

"It's crazy," she shook her head and laughed.

"So, do you want to play UNO or something?" I asked.

"Sure. Hayley, the cards are in the living room next to the TV," Annie said.

Hayley left to go get them.

"Allie? I think I've picked out the nam—"

I heard a scream.

"Hayley?!" I screamed.

*smirks* ooh what's happening?!?!?
