Dr. Brandon turned the machine on and rubbed the jelly on Lucy's exposed stomach. As he began the procedure, he watched the screen. Then a weird noise could be heard coming from the monitor.

Holding Lucy's hand, Zone silently watched the screen, a soft smile on his face as he looked at Lucy, kissing her cheek.

by **Liberty** Wed Feb 04, 2015 1:12 pm

Lucy smiled at Zone before turning back to the screen.

Dr. Brandon smiled. "Well, you have a very healthy baby. Would you like to know the gender?" he asked as he looked at them.

by **Juusanbi no Poptart** Wed Feb 04, 2015 1:13 pm

Smiling broadly, Zone nodded as he gently squeezed Lucy's hand, glad that the baby was healthy.

by **Liberty** Wed Feb 04, 2015 1:15 pm

Lucy nodded along with Zone.

"Congratulations, you're having a boy!" Dr. Brandon says enthusiastically.

by **Juusanbi no Poptart** Wed Feb 04, 2015 1:23 pm

Grinning, Zone kissed Lucy on the lips, hugging her gently from the side. "A boy. I'm going to have a son!" Zone muttered excitedly.

by **Liberty** Wed Feb 04, 2015 1:31 pm

Lucy smiled happily and kissed Zone back, gigglig softly as he bragged about having a son.

by **Juusanbi no Poptart** Wed Feb 04, 2015 1:35 pm

Smiling, Zone said "Thank you doctor."

by **Liberty** Wed Feb 04, 2015 1:37 pm

Dr. Brandon nodded and wished them a happy pregnancy before handing Lucy a wet cloth and leaving the room.

Lucy giggled as she wiped the goo off her stomach. "A boy." she whispered in amazement.

by **Juusanbi no Poptart** Wed Feb 04, 2015 1:52 pm

Smiling happily, Zone said "We're going to be parents to a wonderful baby boy."

by **Liberty** Wed Feb 04, 2015 2:08 pm

Lucy adjusted her shirt and got off of the chair. "We have to celebrate!" she said excitedly.

by **Juusanbi no Poptart** Wed Feb 04, 2015 2:14 pm

Grinning, Zone asked "Want to go out for dinner?" Before helping her up, Hugging her close to hs body as he rested a hand on her stomach.

by **Liberty** Wed Feb 04, 2015 3:35 pm

"Of course!" Lucy said happily. "I have two stomachs to fill!" She laughed at her own joke and placed a kiss on Zone's cheek.

by **Juusanbi no Poptart** Wed Feb 04, 2015 3:41 pm

Chuckling slightly, Zone gently held Lucy's hand, gently leadin her by the hand out to his car, the gadget-enhanced vehicle unlocking as he opened the door, letting Lucy in before closing the door and going around to the driver's seat, starting the car as he began to drive at a moderate speed.

by **Liberty** Wed Feb 04, 2015 3:46 pm

"A baby boy! Can you believe this?" she asked. "Who do you think he'll look like? Or maybe he'll be a mixture of both of us... Oh my gosh... What if he hates me? What if I'm a terrible mother? What if I get squeamish around poppy diapers? What if I can't wake up in the middle of the night when he cries and he dies from lack of oxygen?!" Lucy was definitely freaking out.

by **Juusanbi no Poptart** Wed Feb 04, 2015 3:53 pm

Gently squeezing Lucy's hand, Zone began to talk slowly in order to calm her down. "Calm down lucy. To answer in order, I think he will have your hair and perfect skin and my eyes and face shape. He wouldn't ever hate you, you are his kind, beautiful, loving mother. If you get squeamish around diapers I'll take care of changing him, and I rarely sleep anyways so I'll take care of his when he cries if you can't get up. So calm down, take deep breaths." Zone said, kissing Lucy while watching the road.

by **Liberty** Wed Feb 04, 2015 3:58 pm

Lucy couldn't stop the tears as they fell down her cheeks. "You really think so? He won't hate me? Not even if I have to punish him?" Lucy said, gripping Zone's hand.

by **Juusanbi no Poptart** Wed Feb 04, 2015 3:59 pm

Smiling, Zone said "Of course not. If You are really that worried about him hating you for punishing him, I'll do it."

by **Liberty** Wed Feb 04, 2015 4:02 pm

"But what if he hates you? What if he hates the both of us and runs away?" Lucy asks. She suddenly stopped crying and started laughing. "I sound so ridiculous don't I?" she giggled.

by **Juusanbi no Poptart** Wed Feb 04, 2015 4:07 pm

Chuckling softly, Zone said "Yeah, you do." Pulling up to the restaurant, Zone parked the car, unlocking the doors as he got out, going around to the other side and opening he door for Lucy, gently holding her hand and helping her stand.

by **Liberty** Wed Feb 04, 2015 4:09 pm

Lucy giggled a bit more as she got out. She intertwined their fingers and lead the way inside. The hostess smiled at them. "Table for two?" she asked. Lucy nodded and followed the hostess to a table.

by **Juusanbi no Poptart** Wed Feb 04, 2015 4:13 pm

Smiling, Zone walked beside Lucy, sitting down at the table they were brought to as she handed them the menus. "Thanks." Zone said, opening the menu and immediately finding what he wanted.

by **Liberty** Wed Feb 04, 2015 4:18 pm

Lucy casually picked up the menu. "How does pasta sound?" she asked, looking at her stomach. Her eyes widened in surprise. "Zone! He's moving!" she exclaimed, reaching for his hand to place it where she felt their baby boy "kick".

by **Juusanbi no Poptart** Wed Feb 04, 2015 4:25 pm

Eyes widening, Zone placed his hand on Lucy's stomach, feeling a slight pulse as ethe baby 'kicked'. "I can tell he is going o have your energy. Already kicking? Definitely." Zone joked with a grin.

by **Liberty** Wed Feb 04, 2015 4:27 pm

Lucy smiled at Zone and placed her hand on top of his.

"Lucy?!" a voice said. Lucy turned to see her dad Henry, looking at her with shock.

"Daddy?" Lucy asked.
