224 Remi is pregnan

" So first thing is yes you are pregnant, congratulations I'm excited for you." Remi notices that Moll's voice doesn't match her words so she asks. 

"What is it what is wrong?" Holding onto Yona's hand . 

" I'm concerned because you have been spotting when it's time for your normal cycle. We need to do a sonogram to see exactly how far along you are and to make sure the baby is ok. You know Crystal has been saying your pregnant for a long time now. We should not have discounted it as her wishful thinking. We know that even though Morrigan bound her gift she still has power which is scary. I don't know if I want to imagine how strong she will be when it's unbound. So in about fifteen minutes the nurse will come get you for the test. I will do it myself only because I don't want to wait for the report. I won't be able to completely tell you what we will find because it's not my field. I will be able to tell if the heartbeat is ok and roughly how far along you are. The rest we will have to wait for the report. " Moll hugs Remi and goes out to make the arrangements. Yona sees the worry on her face and holds her close. He closes his eyes and just holds her hoping that with him here she will be ok. The nurse comes in and takes them to the sonogram room. 

Moll starts the test. Right away they can see the baby. Moll gasps at how far along Remi is. The baby already is nearly fully recognizable  baby. The baby is nearly eight inches already his lungs are fully developed, Though he is a little small in weight. Moll moves the wand and you can see clearly that the baby is a boy. She smiles at Yona and tells them about the baby. 

" Well we should have definitely listened to Crystal . You are already five months close to six months pregnant. You are having a boy, as you can see he is not shy about showing off. " moving the wand to show them. " he is on the small side right now, but he will grow more. His heart is strong here listen." Moll turns the volume up so they can hear. Remi and Yona both smile when they hear how strong he is. 

Moll goes to stand up and gets slightly dizzy Yona steadied her and Remi gives her a glaring look. 

"Your going to give me a hard time when your not taking care of yourself. " Remi snaps at her. 

"I'm fine it's normal to be dizzy when you get up to quickly while pregnant. You know your uncle takes good care of me , and calls my doctor once a week to check that I'm not doing to much. My partner has already asked me not to have another baby to soon after this one because of your uncle's calls. I never thought Inola would be such a worry wart . " Moll hugs the two of them and tells them 

"I have another , patient I will see you at dinner. Remi make sure you eat more often. You have to get that baby growing ok." Moll goes out of the room and heads to the lab. 

Remi and Yona leave the hospital and go to pick of Crystal from school they want to give her the good news. 

The tech checks Moll's blood sugar levels and does a quick iron test. She looks at her and starts to fuss. 

"You know your sugar keeps getting to low you need to keep a snack on you. Your anemic as well, I know your a doctor so you should know better. If you don't take care of yourself , I'm going to give my cousin a call. Aisling will kick your butt if she finds out that you have not been taking care of yourself. Doctor Moll please for your babies sake eat and rest more. " the girl clicks her tongue at her as if to say shame on you. Sometimes Moll forgets that a lot of the hospital staff is family and that there really are no secrets here. She promises to do better and takes the protein bar from the girl. 

Yona and Remi are waiting for Crystal when she gets out of school. Waving at her to get her attention, Crystal sees them and runs towards them. Yona picks her up and carries her to the car. 

"Daddy why are you here to get me? Brayden is already on the bus we won't be able to get him off now." Crystal hugs him tight around his neck. Yona looks at her and tells her

"we called your teacher and told her that we needed you today. That we would not be able to pick up Brayden, we will come get the two of you for a special after school dinner another day ok." Yona promised her. Crystal agrees and they head to her favorite restaurant. Crystal loves the Japanese steakhouse, she likes the fire show the cook puts on. After the waitress gets their order Remi starts to tell Crystal. 

"Crystal mommy has something to tell you."

before Remi can finish Crystal looks up at her and asks. 

"Did you finally go see MoRee and ask about Alex . You know he will be here before Christmas and you have just been going along not caring. You should really pay more attention to things. Daddy doesn't know anything so he wouldn't get it but mommy really did you not notice that your belly is growing a little. I knew you were going to have him while Daddy was away how could you not?" Her hands on her hips and glaring at her mommy Crystal sits there waiting for  an answer. Yona hides his face trying hard not to laugh. Remi elbows him in the ribs while staring at her daughter. 

"Look here little miss we have had a lot going on and it's not always easy to tell. I thought you were just voicing your wish for a baby brother or sister. I did not think I was actually going to have one right away." Remi snaps back at her. Crystal stands on her chair so that she is eye to eye with her mommy. 

"I told you countless times that you were going to have a baby and that he would be here before Christmas. Daddy even worried that you might be preggy and got joined with you right away that is why we went to the courthouse right away also. So why are you acting surprised. Were you in denial like this when you had me also. Sheesh I feel sorry for Alex to have such a ditzy mommy. No wonder everyone looks surprised at how smart I am compared to my ditzy mommy." Glaring into her mommy's eyes she surprised her when she smiles brightly and jumps into her arms and gives her a kiss. "Mommy I love you anyways even if your not smart . Your the best mommy i could have and thank you for giving me Alex. " Remi looks at her daughter and hugs her tight kissing her forehead. Yona feels left out and asks 

"You know I had a part in making Alex dont I get a thank you and hug?" Giving Crystal puppy eyes yo get her to give him some attention. She thinks for a moment and hugs her daddy telling him. 

" I love you too Daddy and thank you but you know you should be more responsible in the future. I really don't want seven brothers and sisters. We have enough kids in the family once Salali's little girl comes and Moree's daughter. You know that Brayden will have a little brother and even my Uncle Dude is going to have a boy and a girl . Just to many babies so think about that before I am twelve please I don't want to have that many to take care of when I'm getting to be a teenager. " 

the two adults look at her dumbfounded at the sheer number of children she just said was coming into the family. Remi looks at Yona and tells him. 

" there is no way we are having seven children in the next six years. No way that would mean we would be having twins or I would be getting pregnant almost as soon as one was delivered. I truly hope she is joking." 

Crystal sees their faces and dissolves into peals of laughter 

"I am making it up about seven brothers and sisters. We only have two more after Alex. Though the rest is true I think I'm not always clear when I see things. I hope that it is at least because that means that Marshal will become Brayden's dad and that my Dude is going to be happy . " their cook comes and starts his show Crystal sits on Yona's lap until it's time for her to eat. Remi thinks about what Crystal said about everyone's future. She thinks she needs to have a talk with Morrigan soon about Crystal's gifts. If she really can see that far ahead what might her daughter be hiding from them.
