Peggy got up and checked her phone and saw a text from her close friend John,  her sister Eliza and her roommate Maria

John:  Hey,  wanna go to the mall today? :)

Peggy:  What time?

Eliza:  MALL TODAY.  1 O CLOCK

Peggy:  Um okie

Maria:  Hey I went to work early today,  meet me at the mall at 1'

Peggy:  I'm meeting Eliza,  y'all gonna be okie together?

Maria:  👍
--------------
John:  Is 2 ok?

Peggy:  Yea!
----------
Peggy sighed "I'm gonna be at the mall for while today"

Cut to 12:25//

"I NEED A OUTFIT" Peggy screamed and rushed to her walk in closet,  after shuffling through clothes and clothes and clothes she finally picked a cute pair of ripped jeans,  converse a low cut black tank top,  and a shear back jacket with sunflowers.  She decided to let her curly hair down for today and throw on a pair of sunglasses then got in the car to meet everyone at the mall. She got there at 12:58 "gosh I love my truck" She thought admiring the grey 10 year old truck she begged her father for when she turned 16, when suddenly someone jostled her and yelled "boo!" "Ahh" Peggy screamed and turned around to see one of her older sister standing there laughing "Not funny Eliza!!" She said then joined in the laughing then looked at her sister's tummy "watcha gonna name him" She smiled and looked at her sister "Phillip" Eliza said looking at Peggy "wow, your really unoriginal with names" Peggy frowned not but about two seconds later did a motorcycle pull up and Maria lifted off her helmet reavling her long hair had been pulled into a bun "Maria!! " Peggy hollered "Reynolds, long time no see" Eliza said smiling "Hey Pegs,  hey Eliza,  also me and James are divorced my name is Maria Lewis"  Eliza frowned "sorry" She said "ok,  but I'm kinda glad Maria's here because I'm having a baby shower soon and need a nice maternity gown,  and Maria you're pregnant so you need one to" Peggy smiled "are you guys gonna have double baby shower" She said in a excited tone. Maria frowned "I wasn't gonna have a ba-" Eliza cut her off "Me and Theo we're gonna have a double one,  but it can be a triple one!!" She jumped,  once only once because it hurt.  "I mean,  hey why not!" Maria smiled "Do people know the gender of your baby" Eliza asked Maria "only me and Peggy" "Ha,  Peg's Angelica and Alex are the only ones who knows this guys,  soooo" Peggy wrapped her hands around both of them "Gender reveal?"  Eliza and Maria nodded there heads.

-- the girls are in the mall and have discussed there battle plan,  Peggy will get the stuff for the gender reveals and Maria and Eliza are going maternity gown shopping--

Peggy frowned at the cake man when he said he wasn't going to do any more triplet reveals "It's 3 different-" Peggy tried to explain again, she didn't realize she'd been talking to this guy for almost a hour until she looked at the clock and realized it was 2 o'clock "I have to meet John!" She said and ran to the other side of the food court to the Chicken-fle-aaya were John was standing with two sweet teas "Hi John! " She said as she finally stopped to catch her breath "sorry,  my sister and Maria and Theo are all pregnant and having a triple baby shower and I'm doing the gender reveal part" And she stopped to catch her breath again John laughed handed her one of the sweet teas and said "Want some help,  ya know with the whole gender reveal thing?" He said "I've done one before" He smiled and looked at Peggy "You'd do that!!  " She said "of course" He responded ,then Peggy  realized the other thing he said "Seriously,  who for?"  John was not prepared to answer that question "Um,  my dau-" Peggy cut him off "Your a grandpa?!" She was very confused by the logitctis of this "No,  but I'm technically a father" He gave a half hearted smiled,  Peggy took a sip of her drink "Really!!" She was oddly excited about this "Um well,  yes.  I haven't seen her in 3 years,  my ex said I could never see her, but I still have to pay child support" John frowned "Whats her name?" Peggy said "Frances,  she was born when I was 20, and I haven't seen her since" He frowned "Wow,  you were young..  So was I!  I was like" She counted on her fingers "18!" She said realizing now that John was not her age,  but older "Ha,  that's the whole reason I came up from South Carolina" He said,  his southern accent shining through "good comes from the bad,  because I would have never met you of I didn't move " He smiled "Now,  do we want to do 3 separate gender reveals or 1 big one" He said  Peggy thought for a moment "3 small ones,  Eliza might be sharing her baby shower with Maria,  but there's no way she's letting her first born kid share the spotlight with Maria's" She smiled and they went to go find the gender reveal items

*Eliza and Maria have found there dresses and Peggy is almost done with getting the stuff for the gender reveals*

Eliza:  Hey Pegs,  wanna grab a early dinner with me,  Theo and Maria?

Pegs:  Sure!  Where?  And can I bring a special guest along?

Eliza:  Tanners buffet it's 2 miles from here,  and sure!

Pegs:  okie see ya there:)

"Hey John,  wanna come to Tanner buffet with me and the girls"  Peggy asked "Why not" He said and Peggy's phone binged with a Twitter alert

@Buzzfeedoffical:  @Margaritathe1st spotted with mystery man again today at the mall who is this mystery man?  Why do we keep seeing him with her,  is he her lover?  Find out here in our article http/thisisn'tarealarticle.buzzfeed.com

"Gosh I hate BuzzFeed sometimes" She said deciding not to dignify them with a response John laughed as the exited the mall "I'll meet you there" Peggy said walking to her truck,  "See ya" John hollered back.

*at the restaurant*

Peggy and John pulled up at almost the same time and entered together to see Eliza,  Maria and Theo all chowing down on some pickles Peggy looked at John "Don't mess with a pregnant woman's food" She laughed and he laughed,  even though it was a horrible joke.  When Peggy and John sat down at the table John introduced himself to Eliza and Theo "Hey y'all" He said his southern accent that Peggy loved shining through "I'm John , I'm one of Peggy's friends" He shook both there hands,  complimented them both on there beauty and sat down "So your the mystery man BuzzFeed writes articles about,  well Peggy if I knew you were bringing your lover (she said with air quotes)  I would've called up Alex " Eliza smiled,  "And Burr" Theo added "Oh so your the woman who stole Alex's heart" He said looking at Eliza,  hoping she couldn't see right through him "Ha!  I guess I am,  so that means your not just John,  your John Laurens,  I've heard so much about you" She smiled warmly,  though John knew it wasn't rational to think this he couldn't help but think that Alexander may have told Eliza a little to much about him and Alex's friendship "John,  John!" Peggy said snapping him out of his trance, " all 3 of them just invited you to there baby shower " She said pointing at Eliza, Maria and Theo "oh, of course I'll go! "
he said.

--after dinner,  Eliza went home,  so did Theo and Maria,  Peggy and John we're standing in the parking lot--

"Hey John,  are you ok" Peggy said looking at John,  worried "I'm fine,  it's just me and Alexander have been friends for so long it was weird to see his wife sitting there 8 months pregnant" He was lying.  He was lying straight out his teeth,  but he wasn't ready for Peggy to know the truth,  well at least not the whole truth. He couldn't loose her before he even had her.
