"How long has it been since I've last seen you girl!" [BF/N] shrieked in joy as she saw me, I hugged her, after all its been 8 months. "Its felt like months since I've seen you!"

"That's because it has." I laughed, as we sat down in a cafe ordering a cheese scone with a black tea.

"Soooo, how's the baby~!" She winked at me, as I held my hand towards my stomach. My stomach was now much larger than before, making me ten times more self conscious. Yet I ignored it because all I cared about was the child resting in there.

"Healthy and mischievous." I giggled "I can feel them kicking all the time when I'm trying to sleep." [BF/N] laughed, grabbing her scone as it was served to her.

"When are you going to find out their gender?" She asked out of the blue, causing me to think for a few moments.

"Well... From the last check-up, Doctor Kalissa said she'll tell us on the 4th which is..." I stopped for a second, realising what I just said "TODAY!" I felt a jolt of excitement and almost dropped my scone. Some faces turned towards me seeing what the commotion was, I looked down in embarrassment as my face glowed bright red.

[BF/N] laughed hysterically at the embarrassing scene I made causing more people to turn their attention to us. I shot her a look, begging her to stop before I melt into a puddle of embarrassment.

"Once you tell me the gender, we're going baby shopping!" She beamed, wiping away tears of laughter.

"Hold on- how do you know what to get when we go baby shopping!?" I asked, giving her a look of confusion as if she was hiding something from me.

"Before you get the wrong idea, no I don't have a secret child. I used to go baby shopping all the time when my mom was pregnant with my younger brother, at least I don't regret it." She blushed, and I realised she was probably thinking about a dirty memory. "Speaking of which~ let's go shopping!"

I stared at her for a second. I love shopping for clothes and all, yet I literally went yesterday with Jotaro. But then again, how could a woman like me resist!

I went to pay for our meal since she payed last time we met, after coming back I noticed immediately that [BF/N] was flirting with the waiter who served us. Sometimes she really can be a handful, but that's the one thing that I like about her. She really is a great friend, always there for me, especially that time with Jotaro...

[FLASHBACK]

"Ask him, before it's too late!" [BF/N] insisted pushing me towards the direction where Jotaro sat.

"I can't! I don't want to sound like one of his fangirls!" I muttered, shyly glaring at him from a distance.

"Ehh... You have a point... But come on! You guys have been hanging out so much! I'm sure it won't sound strange to him..."

I sighed. Ever since I've seen Jotaro, I have to admit I do have a crush on him. However, not because of his looks but rather his personality. Yes, he might seem like a cold person on the outside, but on the inside... He's a kind caring person, like a soft marshmallow. Ever since I got tickets to go see a dolphin show, I've always wanted to take Jotaro or [BF/N] but after some persuading it's come to the decision where I have to ask Jotaro if he wants to come with me.

"Look, I know you're shy. But ever since I've been hanging out with you from the start, you've had that burning confidence, hiding inside of you. Believe me girl, you are a fierce confident goofball and I know Jotaro won't think of you as one of those..." She stopped for a moment, rolling her eyes "fangirls."

I smiled, and went to hug her. She didn't expect this, but hugged me back. "Now go!"

I turned and walked towards Jotaro, trying to figure out what the hell I was going to say and coming up with conversation starters.

"Hey." I said, sitting down with him. He looked in my direction, nodding in response.

"S-so um" I stuttered, I pinched myself so I wouldn't mess up. "I got these t-tickets to see this dolphin show, and uh well- I just wanted to know if you uhm wanted to c-come along..." I looked down, trying to hide my red face.

"Sure." Jotaro's deep voice spoke, I looked back up in shock.

"R-really!?" I asked in suprise, Jotaro had his hat tilted down so I couldn't see his expression.

"Yeah." He responded, only giving me one word answers. I smiled, looking towards the sky as clouds passed.

"Then I'll see you at the dolphin show, don't be late." I beamed, giving Jotaro a quick friendly hug and walking back to [BF/N] as she did a heart symbol with her hands.

[FLASHBACK FINISH]

"Oooooo, look at this one!" I snapped out of my thoughts as [BF/N] stuffed a dress close to my face with cherries on them. "I have to try this on, give me a second!" She hurried to the changing rooms leaving me alone admiring the clothes. I didn't find anything that I fancied so I walked around the shop trying to look distracted. I suddenly realised I was in the babies isle, with rows and rows of baby dresses, shorts, tops and more. They all looked so cute, it reminded me of clothes you would put on a doll.

"Hey, it's been a while!" A voice spoke behind me, the kind of one where it sounds familiar but not at the same time. I turned, noticing a woman with a child in her pram. It was at that moment that I realised this was the woman I met at the restaurant.

"Oh and my, it looks like you've got a little one as well!" She said, taking notice of my belly.

"I know! Isn't it wonderful? To know I will soon have a child of my own..." I smiled, resting my hand on my stomach. I looked back at the woman's child, as he had his eyes glued to me with an adorable expression.

"You as well! It's been a while!" I rejoiced, crouching done to his height. I turned back to the woman, I couldn't see much of her face since it was obscured in shadows. "He's changed so much from when I last saw him!"

I stood up again, until I realised the woman had been crying, her eyes were red and puffy. She began bursting to tears. "H-hey... What's wrong?" I asked, hugging her as she cried into my shoulder.

After a while, she calmed down, wiping tears from her face. She breathed in deeply. "Lately... My husband has been... acting up." Her eyes still glistened with tears. "Me and him... We've been having so many a-arguments. I just... I'm scared that I've messed up our relationship."

I hugged her tightly, soothing her down. "Its going to be okay, me and my husband have been in... unexpected arguments. But here we are now, we've both gotten through it and I'm sure you will too. I'm here for you as well." She looked up, wiping away tears and smiled.

"Thank you... Even though I don't even know you that well... Here you are helping me." She laughed gently.

"You too, when we met in the restaurant you helped me with understanding what I needed to do. It's thanks to you that I'm here now."

After some moments, I got her phone number so we could be in contact and keep each other updated. She thanked me, and exited the shop. Shortly after, I recieved a text from Jotaro telling me he was outside in the car waiting for me, I realised it was already 7PM.

"BOO!" I jumped, turning to see [BF/N] holding a bag of odd clothes that I would never see myself wearing.

"Don't scare me like that!" I snapped as she responded with a cheesy smile, laughing at how I sounded like a little kid. I laughed, realising that I really did sound childish. "I need to go, [BF/N]..."

"Let me guess, did Jotaro come here to pick you up?" I nodded sheepishly, she sighed. "Fine, I'll let him take you away. Don't get carried away all night though!" My face turned red, realising what she meant and I nudged her with my elbow to keep her mind out of the gutter.

I put my bags in the boot of the car that I got from shopping and went to the front sitting next to Jotaro. He started the engine, driving back home. I scrolled through my phone until I noticed a message pop up.

"Hello, Mrs Kujo! This is XXX Hospital that would like to let you know the test results are in and you have a baby girl!"

I stopped for a second, re-reading the message a second time to make sure I wasn't being delusional.

"EEEEEEEEEEECK, A BABY GIRL!" I screeched in excitement, causing Jotaro to lose focus at the wheel as a loud car roared 'BEEP' at us. I blushed, looking over at Jotaro as he glanced at me with annoyance and excitement.

"Never. Do. That. Again." He grunted, yet I saw a smirk form on his face, his right hand grasped my hand tightly as his other hand controlled the steering wheel. He was just as excited as I was, we were close now to our child being born.
