"So are we ready for this?" I asked Ashton when the taxi driver turned into the street.

"We don't really have a way out anymore now." He said with a chuckle while he held onto the small bags. The dress looked so rediculous under my sweater but as it was raining here in London and it was bioling in LA, saying that I was cold was a valid excuse. "It will be fine and it will make everything a lot easier because once they know, we no longer have to worry about who finds out. Because I would be so mad at myself if anyone else figured it out before we got a chance to tell them.

"This is it" I said to the taxi driver and he parked the car infront of the house. I paid him and we both got out, running to the door to get out of the rain. I rang the bell and I could hear yelling inside. I already let Piper and Bella loose so they could go straight inside while we hugged everyone hello.

"They're here!" I heard Jackie scream before the door opened abruptly and Jackie almost jumped into my arms. "Welcome home."

"I'm so happy to see you again" I said while we hugged before she let go off me and hugged Ashton.

"You brought presents!" She said excited when she saw the three bags in his hands.

"Not for you and please let us in because it's raining." I said with a chuckle and she laughed before letting us inside and everyone came up to us to greet us quickly. "Hey mom" I said while I hugged her thightly "I missed you so much."

"I missed you too Sammie" she said while she looked at me, "you look amazing but so exhausted" she said with a chuckle "let me put your sweater away, its hot in here."

"No it's fine" I said with a smile and she looked at me questioning but shrugged before going to say hi to Ashton. I greeted everyone else before we got pulled to the living room where everyone had already started drinking and got handed two glasses of champagne right away. Ofcourse I put mine down on the table and tried to make sense of the chaos that was already happening. Food got passed our way and everyone was talking at the same time driving me just a little crazy and Anne seemed to have noticed how confused the both of us were so she made everyone shut up and I was so relieved.

"So Ashton, you still haven't told us what tattoo you got." Lauren said when it got quiet and I looked at Ashton who was still holding onto the 3 bags thightly

"I'll show it in a second but we didn't come empty handed so let me hand these out so I don't have to keep holding them." He said as he handed the bags to my mom, Anne and Chris and he took out his phone to film their reactions.

"You didn't have to get us anything." Anne said straight away

"It's just something small." I said and I was just bouncing from excitement and we both tried so hard to hide the grins on our faces as they opened the bags and almost at the same time, they all pulled out the baby onesies.

"Wait" my mom said as she looked at me before looking back at the onesie she was holding "are you?"

"Oh my god" Anne said with the biggest smile as she and my mom put the bags down again to look at us.

"15,5 weeks already." I said with a big grin and Chris was the first to also take out the last ultrasound and the pacifier.

"Holy shit" Jackie said as she saw the onesies and my mom and Anne started crying while they got up and came to hug us once again.

"I'm going to be a grandma." My mom said crying while she held onto me. We all hugged for what seemed like forever and many tears rolled down the cheecks of the soon to be grandmas.

"So am I getting a niece or a nephew?" Lauren asked excited and I laughed at the question.

"Yeah we don't know yet. We have it in an envelope and we wanted to find out together with all of you." Ashton replied with a smile.
