Braxton

"'Hey Brax, you probably had a long day. You should come inside and get a drink.' Could you be the surprise by any chance?" I waggle my eyebrows and we both laugh, but I set my keys down and take off my shoes.

Then I walk into the kitchen and open the fridge, I find another clue wrapped around a water bottle.

"'The next clue on your hunt will keep you on your toes, go to the place where I hang my clothes.'" I jog up the stairs to her closet and grab the next clue.

"'We may be unwed, but check by Cora's bed.' These are actually pretty clever, did you make them up?"

"Well, not the idea, but yeah. I made the little sayings and all that." She gives me a goofy smile and then I walk to Cora's room and read the next clue.

"'Want more? Check the backdoor.' I love the rhymes! Get on my back." She hesitates for a second, then jumps on my back and I give her a piggyback ride down the stairs and to the backdoor.

"'Before you declare yourself a champ, go look on the lamp.'"

I'm not sure how I missed the clue on the lamp earlier, but I pick it up.

"'The hunt probably feels like it just began, but you should check the fan.'" I don't know how she reached the fan, but with my height I can reach it.

"'Don't worry your search is almost over, look behind the tv for some closure.'" I take the clue from the tv and wonder how long this took, she obviously put a lot of time into it, what could she need to tell me?

"'The house isn't on fire, but you should check the dryer.'" She follows me to the dryer and watches as I read what I assume to be one of the last clues.

"'Before the hunt ends give me so lovin! Then go see what's baking in the oven.'" I walk over to kiss her. After all, she did tell me to. I fuse our lips together and quickly get lost in the taste of Em.

"Almost done, we should finish the scavenger hunt." She pulls away and rights her clothing.

"Okay, but before it's over I want to say thank you. This has been really fun. I am very curious as to what the surprise is though." We walk to the kitchen and I open the oven and grab the last clue.

"'Who knew? I'm eating for two!'" I look at her confused. Then it hits me and I question her with my eyes.

"Do you mean? Are we having another baby?" She smiles back at me.

"Well if the two tests I took weren't--" She doesn't even get to finish. I smash my lips to hers and bring my hands to her belly. When I pull back I sink to my knees and pull up her shirt.

My hand covers her whole belly now, but in a few months she'll have a baby bump.

"How far along are we? How did this even happen? That doesn't matter, I'm just glad it did." I kiss her stomach and her eyes water with unshed tears.

"I made an appointment with my OB and I'm not sure how, but it seems you have magic sperm. To knock me up twice while using birth control. Sounds impossible." She shakes her head lightly, but continues to smile brightly at me.

"Sounds like we have something to celebrate!" I pick her up and she wraps her legs around my waist. I smile like a lunatic while climbing the stairs to her room. When we get there, I lie her gently down on the mattress.

"Thank you, Em. I can't wait to be here for our family and getting to experience the whole thing with you. I'm so excited. It couldn't have been a better surprise."
