Brian stared at his fiancé for about 5 minutes, not saying a word. Leighanne started to get really worried that he was angry at her, or something. And so she was about to leave, when she suddenly saw a lonely tear trickle down Brian's cheek. Then a huge grin spread across his first serious and shocked face and he slowly leaned in and hugged his love.

"Honey, that is the most wonderful thing that has ever happened in my life" he said now crying. "I think I'm the happiest man on earth".

Leighanne joined him in tears, and they sat there hugging for about 10 minutes.

"So you're not mad at me?" Leighanne asked?

Brian looked at her in disbelief of what she just said.

"Mad at you? That's the most craziest thing I ever heard! How could I be mad at the person who is about to give birth to my own son or daughter, what ever it may be?! I love you!" he said kissing her deeply on the lips. Then he and lifted up her shirt and bent down. "And I love you!" he said kissing her now flat stomach.

Leighanne laughed. She was so relieved that he was happy about it.

"I can't believe that I'm going to be a father" Brian said dreamy, he was off in his own little world of happiness. "Oh my god..." he said shocked, when he finally started to realize the situation. "Honey, can you actually believe that there'll be a little boy or girl calling me 'daddy'?"

Leighanne giggled. "Amazing feeling, isn't it?".

"Yeah!" Brian kissed his fiancé deeply on the lips once more. "When should we tell the others?" he asked.

"We could invite them over tonight, if you are so anxious to tell them" she said trying not to laugh at her over-excited boyfriend.

"Yeah, I'll go call Kevin and make arrangements" Brian said, and got up from the couch and headed for the nearest phone. He dialed the familiar number and waited for his cousin to pick it up.

"Hello?"

"Hi Kev! What's up?"

"Hey Bri, not much"

"Do you mind coming over here tonight?"

"No, why?"

"Well, I don't want to give it all away, but I have something important to tell you"

"Umm.. yeah sure, what time do you want me there?"

"I was thinking around... 7:30? Is that ok?"

"Sure! I'll be there!"

"Ok, call the other guys, will you?"

"Ok, I'll see you at 7:30 then?"

"Ok, thanks man!"

"No problem. Bye."

"Bye". Brian put the reciever back, and walked over to Leigh who was standing a few feet away, listening to the conversation.

"What did he say?" she asked, as she put her arms around his neck.

"He said he'll be here at 7:30, and that he would call the other guys for me". Brian said, putting his arms around her waist.

"Let's go eat dinner then", Leigh said pulling away from Bri's grasp. "I'm too tired to cook, can we go somewhere?" she asked, using the puppy-dog-eyes.

"Oh alright" Brian chuckled. "You knew I wouldn't be able to stand that puppy-face very long!" he said punching her lightly in the side.

"Ah, you hit a pregnant woman! I'll get you arrested for child assault!" Leighanne said, trying to be serious, but she soon would burst out in a fit of laughter.

"Aww Leigh, I would never ever hurt that little squirt, and you know that!". Brian played offended, he knew this always worked.

"I know baby. I'm sorry!" Leighanne said kissing his nose. "Where do you want to go?"

"Umm... how about Mickey D's?"

"Ok, let's go! You drive, though" Leighanne said walking over to the front door, and put her shoes on.

"Yes ma'am".

They walked out together, Brian holding his arm gently around Leigh's waist. He opened the passanger's seat door for Leighanne to get in. Such a gentleman! Then he got around the car, and opened the door to the driver's seat and got in. Soon the car sped down the street.

*****

Nick made his way down the mainstreet. He'd been recording all day, and was starving. The warm Florida breeze touched his cheeks gently, and the sun was pouring its beams down on the young man. He walked slowly, with his hands down his pockets, and his head hanging down. The last thing he wanted was to get recognize, and even worse; getting mobbed. He was wearing a cap. Dark sunglasses covered his beautiful baby blue eyes. He had a white tight tank, and black baggy pants. He was wearing his favorite Nike sneakers, and his golden chain-cross. Needless to say, he looked hot!

He looked up, and noticed some teenage girls standing a few feet away from him. 'Oh no, I hope they haven't seen me', he thought and without hesitation slipped into the closest door, hoping they hadn't spotted him. He looked around, and realized he had entered 'Star Bucks'. 'Now that I'm here, I can order something', he thought. 'After all, I am starving and I don't want to go out there to those girls'. He made his way over to the counter.

"Hi welcome to Star Bucks, may I take your order?" the young cashier said.

"Um..." Nick said, scratching his cap, "I'll have a tall Mocha Frappuccino, please" he said.

"Anything else to go with that?" the girl said.

"Nope" Nick said.

"Ok, that'll be $1.50" she said and smiled.

Nick handed her the money, grabbed the frappuccino and went searching for a free table. He walked around for awhile, then found a small one in a corner. Nick put the coffee down on the table, and sat down onto the chair.

'That girl was kind of cute', he thought. 'I wonder how old she was?' he looked over at her, and she noticed her was looking at her, and she smiled at him. Nick instantly looked down and blushed. 'Come on Nick, don't be such a baby', he thought to himself. 'She's pretty, and she's definitely flirting, so why don't you flirt back?'.

He spent the next 10 minutes flirting with the young cashier. The girl would giggle everytime Nick winked. 'Oh no, she's coming over here' he thought as he saw the girl excuse herself from the counter and she made her way toward Nick's table. 'Behave now Nick'.

"Hi". A female voice was heard above Nick's head.

Nick looked up into a pair of green eyes. "Hey" he said.

"May I sit down?" she asked.

"Sure" Nick said smiling. He watched her as she sat down. 'She's got nice legs' he thought. Nick obviously thought that this young girl was some sort of fan, and just wanted to ask for his autograph or something, when he heard her saying;

"What's your name?"

'Wow, she doesn't know who I am. That's a good start!'. "Um... Nickolas, but people just call me Nick" he said. "What's yours?"

"Destiny, but my friends call me Des or Dessie" she said smiling.

'I love that smile of hers' he thought.

'He's got really beautiful eyes' she thought.

"So... Des, how old are you?" Nick asked.

"I'm 16, what about you?"

"I'm 18".

"Hey Nick, it was really nice talking to you, but I'd better get going. The customers are waiting". She smiled again.

'Go on... ask her Nick!' he thought.

She stood up and turned around and was about to walk away.

"Wait!" Nick called. She turned around. "Would... would you like to.. go out.. tomorrow night?".

She grinned from ear to ear. "Yeah, I'd love to!"

"Ok, I'll pick you up at 7:00?"

"Fine!". She took out a piece of paper and wrote something down, and handed it to Nick. "That's my phonenumber, and that's my address".

"Ok, thanks" Nick said smiling. 'YES!' he thought to himself. 'Finally a date!!!'.

She smiled towards him and walked back to the counter. Nick grabbed his stuff, and rose from the chair. As he passed Destiny he flashed her one of those famous smiles. She blushed slightly and waved at him. Nick exited the coffee shop, and was soon back on the street again.

'I like her... I really like her' Nick thought to himself.

*****

"Brian, have you seen my baby blue tank top?" Leighanne yelled from upstairs.

"Um...no, don't you remember where you put it last?" Brian yelled back, sitting in the livingroom.

"Ugh, nevermind I found it" his fiancé yelled.

"Ok" Brain said quietly to himself. He sat on the couch in front of the TV, flipping through the channels. He heard someone walking down the stairs and turned his head toward the noise. Leighanne smiled at Brian once she was downstairs.

"Do I look ok?" she asked.

"No... you look perfect!" Brian smiled and walked up to her.

Leighanne giggled. "Are they coming any time soon?"

"Yeah, they should be here any minute" Brain said glancing at his watch. Right as he said so, the doorbell rang.

"Speaking of the devil" Brain said laughing and went over to the door to open it up.

"Frack!" Brain exclaimed.

"Yo Frick, what's up?" Nick said.

"Come in, I think the others will be here soon" Brain said showing Nick inside.

"Hi there Nick" Leighanne said and smiled at him.

"Hey Leigh". Nick went over to her and gave her a big hug.

"What about me?" Brian said pouting. "I didn't get any hug".

"I'd rather hug your fine woman, than you shorty!" Nick said teasing his best friend. But gave Brian a hug anyway.

The doorbell rang once again. Brian went over and opened the door. There stood Kevin, Howie and AJ.

"Hey rok" AJ said giving hus bud a brotherly hug. Howie and Kevin did the same.

"Well, what are we all waiting for? Let's go into the livingroom". Leighanne said showing them into the room, and told them to sit down and make themselves comfortable.

"Would you care for anything to drink?" Brian said. He didn't wait for an answer, but hurried to the kitchen and got them all some beer.

"Well... come on, tell us why we are here!" Kevin said impatiently as Brian came back.

Brian sat down on the couch and Leigh on his lap.

"Well..." Leighanne started. "I haven't been feeling too well these past weeks, and just thought it was some bug that eventually would go away. But just to be on the safe side I went to the doctor. And there... I found out that it wasn't a bug I had caught..."

When she didn't continue, Nick asked "What was it then?"

"I'm going to be a daddy!" Brian exclaimed.

The four guys' jaws dropped to the floor, and they just sat there stunned. Howie was the first one who was brought back to reality. He jumped off the couch and went over to hug Leigh ane Brian.

"Congratulations Brian and Leighanne! I couldn't be more happier for you!"

Nick soon followed Howie's actions. He enveloped Brian. "Dude that is so awesome" Nick said. "I can't believe the little rokster is going to be a daddy!" he said messing with Brian's hair. Nick hugged Leighanne as well.

"Wow cuz, congratulations!" Kevin said grinning. "I'm really happy for both of you!"

AJ stood up and punched Brian playfully in the side, then he gave him a warm hug. All the time AJ was grinning from ear to ear. "Congrats B and L, that's wonderful. Heck we're all going to be uncles" he said laughing.

"We've got some serious baby-shopping to do" Howie said.

"Will you please excuse me" Leighanne said. "Nature calls". The other guys laughed. She walked out of the livingroom, and up the stairs to the bathroom.

"So how does it feel?" Nick asked Brian.

"Amazing. There are so many mixed emotions going on right now." Brian said dreamy. He still couldn't really believe he was going to be a father. Responsible for an other human being.

"We'll support you, and help you all the way" Kevin said patting his younger cousin on his back.

"Thanks guys" Brian said. "Leigh and I really appreciate that.

Their conversation was interupted by a scream and a loud thud coming from upstairs. Without hesitation the five guys flew up the stairs and went searching for the cause of the thud. When opening the bathroom door they all gasped in horror.

"LEIGHANNE!!!!!!"
