[KneelingAngel and Gilmore ] A Long Road Home

[KneelingAngel]

Clay's eyes went wide, then narrowed and frowned then they went wide again, trying to process what Effie had just said. Had he heard that right? "We're going to have a baby?" He asked. 12 seconds later his face lid up like a Christmas tree and started laughing. "We're really going to have a baby?" He smiled and held her close. He wiped away and kissed her lips. "But that's a great thing!" He beamed. Clay was happy, beyond happy. He always wanted to have his own kids. Though he knew what Effie feared, he still wanted them. "It's going to be alright darling." He smiled and kissed Effie again. "This is great news!"


Justice raised a brow as she looked up at him. "You were staring at my ass again during the briefing, weren't you?" She questioned teasingly and got up on one arm so she could look down at him, her hair falling to one side over her shoulder. "Yes the whole band. You're going to play your latest single and then you guys have an interview together with Hugh Jackman, Martin Freeman and the guy who voices Optimus Prime in Transformers. I can't remember his name. The interview is right after the scan.

Effie looked up at him. He looked stunned at first. He was trying to comprehend what she said.She bit her bottom lip when he lit up and wiped her tears kissing her.She sighed. She almost burst into tears of joy.She sniffed. She nods it was good news. She knew this was what he wanted. She wanted it to. She was just scared. "I know love I am so happy, I am also very scared."She says and hugs him.She leaned into him.


James sighed and looked at her."Hell yeah I am looking at your ass.what the hell was I supposed to be doing paying attention isn't my thing."He says and pulled her close kissing her." Come on lets get dressed and ready. Lets also go see how your sister is holding up. " He says

Clay smiled and kissed her hair as he hugged her back. "I know." He mumbled. "But I promise you that there's unothing to be scared of. I will be here every step of the way to hold your hand." He pulled back a little and placed his forehead against Effie's, staring into his wife's beautiful eyes. I know you fear that you'll be a bad mother, but you're not, and even if you would be, I will be there to help you become a great mother. I see a great mother in you. You nurtured us until your sister came along, bossing us around. You have nothing to fear, I swear." Clay kissed her and held her there for a minute before getting up with and outstretched hand. "We should get dressed, my beautiful love of my life." He have her one I his special smiles. Everything would be fine."


Justice rolled her eyes. "Yes you're supposed to pay attention." She sighed, though secretly thought it was funny. "I don't hope our kids get too much of your trades. Your looks would do him or her good, but I sure hope he or she is more like me on the inside." She teased and got dressed in her white summer dress that just hid the baby bump. She didn't want to get bombarded my paparazzi now that their "secret" was out since last week. She didn't like the paparazzi, it was a sign that she never meant to be the star. Just the manager, the way she liked it. Justice put in her make up and smiled at James from the mirror. "Stop staring at my ass~" She teased when she saw where his eyes were. Sometimes she wished that he was more of a boob guy.

James laughs and shook his head. "Sorry you just look amazing. "He says. He smiled and got up laughing at her comments. "I justice want a happy Healthy baby." He said. He put deodorant on and grabbed fresh jeans and button up shirt. He left it open at the top and brushed out his hair. He shook it and smiled at her." Meet you down stairs my beautiful love." He kissed her and went down to make breakfast.


Effie hugged Clay tightly. She was happy he was here. She was freaked out, yet happy. She had stay calm though. She wrapped her hands around his head as he layed his forehead on hers.He told her she be a good mother. Effie sighed and nods. She kissed him gently. When he pulled away and got up saying they should dress. Effie nods and takes his hand. She stood and went to undress. Effie looked in the mirror and stared at her stomach. She gently layed a hand on it.Effie shook her head and went to the shower. She showered, brushed her teeth, shaved and washed her self. She stepped out drying off.Effie stood in the closet staring at her closet. She grabbed sweats and a t-shirt. She dressed putting a bra on under her v neck. She walked out to meet Clay in the bedroom.

"Okay." Justice laughed as James went downstairs. Knowing that probably half the band hadn't listened to her during the briefing, she send everyone a test and added to Effie's that they were gonna head over, just incase they were busy. Finishing up, Justice headed downstairs to the kitchen. She kicked Luke's door on her way. "Dude, it's a wonder she's not pregnant!" She shouted at the door. "Put your pants on, interview in two hours! GET READY!" She ordered and walked into the kitchen and kissed James on the shoulder as she popped up behind him. "Whatcha making?" She asked. Justice was starving.


Clay got dressed if a tshirt, black jeans and leather jacket. He fixed his hair when he got a text. Opening his phone he read the text and facepalmed. He had forgotten the interview. "Darlin' we got an interview in two." He said and whistled as she walked into the bathroom. "Hot damn I have a hot wife." He smirked and kissed her cheek. "Breakfast?"

Luke laughed."Hilarious." He yelled after her.He got Char up and they git dressed and sighed holding hands. They walked downstairs to grab a bite to eat.


James smiles when she walks down." Eggs, French toast, bacon and orange Juice my love."He kisses her and goes back to cooking. " you just sit and relax babe."He says.


Effie blushed and wiped her eye's. She nods and bites her bottom lip."yeah I am so hungry and something smells good."She says.she took his hand and laughed as they walked down to the kitchen. She was the only one in relaxed wear.She sat at the table and sighed as James cooked. Clay got her water and she kissed him happily. She felt a bit better. She bit her bottom lip wondering if she should tell them yet.

Justice did as James asked and smiled at her sister as she sat next to her. "How are you feeling?" Justice asked her sister. "You look paler then normal. You know what's funny?" She asked. "It's like you're sick and I'm having the baby... Sorry, bad joke." She mumbled and smiled. She kissed James when he brought her breakfast. "Thank you love." She said and gave him a quick kiss. "Please tell me you all remembered the interview." She said and took a bit off of a piece of bacon.


Clay sat down next to Effie and laced their fingers. He gave her a look, saying that it was her choice whether to tell or not. He looked away from Justice when she spoke about the interview.

James nods he made enough for all of them he gave a plate to Char, Luke, Clay and Effie. He took gis pkate and sat down next to Justice. He slowly ate and looked up at Effie. "I can always tell when your hiding something you get the look this one does." He says and looked at her. He held Justices hand and rubbed his thumb over the top of her hand.


Luke ate from his Plate.Char pushed her plate away normally her and Effie wouldn't eat stuff like this.so it supprised her and Luke when she did starting eating with one hand. Her other hand twinned in Clays.


Effie swallowed her food." I remembered. Just wasn't sure if I make it with being sick and all I am okay I actually feel fine right now. Really hungry."She says. She looked at Clay and bit her bottom lip. When James called her out. She gave him a dark look, she was not happy he outed her.She sighed. She drank her water slowly. She gripped Clays hand a bit tighter. "Yeah about the whole being sick I am not really sick."She said. She took a deep breath in and exhaled slowly. " I am pregnant. "She says to the table.


James stopped eating and looked at her." I am sorry did you Just say your pregnant. Oh um wow congratulations."He said. He was surprised. He didn't think Effie wanted kids yet.Luke and char congratulated her. They were a bit stunned themselves. What would this mean for the band? They were all thinking it.

Justice looked at her sister in utter shock. "You're pregnant?" She questioned "Like me?" A couple of seconds later Justice's face lid up like New Years Eve. "Omg! You're going to have a baby!" She beamed and hugged her sister before looking at Luke and Char. "Now you guys and we know that Luke's dick isn't broke."


Clay smiled and held Effie's hand tighter and kissed the back of it, telling her he was proud of her in his own way. Now they just needed a plan for the band... They had a tour coming up in a couple of weeks...

Effie looked at her sister and nods.She hugged Justice and sighs." No they dont need one."She laughs. Cahr gave a look."no way. Were careful so none of this happens. "She says and yawns.She kissed Luke and walked away.Luke shrugged. "Yeah no kids. For us." He said and leaned back. He watched the two of them."I will meet you at the interview.Luke said and walked out.


Effie sighed and bit he bottom lip."I dont want to be out of the band and a tour pregnant is going to be hard."Effie said. She looked at Clay. She was now worried about that.Effie leaned into Clay for comfort.


James went back to eating and looked down. It wasn't his place to say anything. He got up and kissed Justice on the cheek. He grabbed the plates and washed them. He left Effies and Justices Plate.

"What?" Justice questioned and looked at her sister. She noticed that James left rather cal my, so she would have to check on him later too "No, it's okay." she said with a slight smile. "While you guys were on honeymoon I looked it up. I mean, it's not like I want to stay home while you guys are on tour, so I checked if I could go on concerts online. You can go until your 22 weeks. That's what it said on the site, so you don't have to miss out much. I even think you can stay like maybe 25 weeks on stage because the sound on stage is softer than the sound that gets out of the speakers. Its a six month tour, you should be able to go." Justice smiled and combed through her sister's hair. "You won't have to leave the band, everything will me fine." She said and stood up. "Now if you guys will excuse me, I need to get James and head to the hospital for the appointment.. See you guys at the interview." She smiled and went to the kitchen. "Hey." She smiled and kissed James's cheek. "yOu left quietlier then usual, you okay?"


Clay exhaled in relief and kissed Effie's temple. "See?" He asked and looked down at her. "Everything will be alright, just like I promised, didn't I?" He smiled and cupped her face, forcing her to look at her. "You're not leaving the band. I don't care how many kids we'll eventually have, but your sister always has a plan for you. There is always a solution." He leaned down and placed his lips on hers. Everything was going to be alright, he hoped that I would stay like that forever. There was no way that he wanted to give up the band.

 

[Dark_Psycho]

James turned "hey love , Fine just didn't want to say anything. Question is are you okay?"He asks. He pulled her clise and kissed her on the nose." Lets go get you to that appointment. "He said and winks at her.


Effie smiles at her sister when she encourages her. Effie sighed and kissed Clay happily. "I think I will go with her."Effie said and stands."I would like to make sure."Effie says.She texted ger sister to twll her she was going with

"I'm fine." Justice smiled and beamed when he said appointment. She grabbed his hand and walked outside to the car when she got a text. "Effie's coming with us." Justice smiled and texted her sister to hurry up.


Clay stands up as well and follows after Effie. "I'm coming with too." He smiled and grabbed her hand. "If you're going to have a first look at out baby then I want to be there."

Effie stood and nods to Clay. "Lets go babe." She says. She had finished her plate of food.she locked her hands with his as they meet James.


They all get in the back of the car and ate driven to the doctors.

[KneelingAngel]

They reached the hospital and Justice was taken to an appointment room as Effie was taken to another. The doctor greeted Justice and James and explained them how everything would go. Justice lifted her shirt and some jell was applied to her stomach. Justice excitedly watched the screen as it lid up. "And here is your baby." The doctor said and pointed at the baby on the screen. "It looks like your quite along... It looks like your you somewhere in the middle of your second trimester, you're around twenty weeks, is that correct?"


Justice laughed nervously and scratched her cheek. "We don't really know when it happened." She said nervously, causing the doctor to laugh a little.


"No worries." The man said. "You're baby looks perfectly healthy." He turned to James. "Do you two want to know the sex of your baby or do you want to keep it a surprise?"


Justice turned to James. "It's your call." She smiled. She was fine with both, she was just happy that the baby was okay.

 

[Dark_Psycho]

James listened intently and watched the screen closely.He scratched his head and held on to Justice. He kissed her cheek and nods." Sure why not I would like to know if its a boy or girl."He was excited. He showed it as well. He looked at the doctor anxiously. He was beyond thrilled the baby was healthy.


Effie sat on the table and layed back a bit."okay were just going to put some gel on your lower stomach."He says.Effie pulled her shirt up higher on her body just below her chest, so he could do the ultrasound.He started and mived it around on her lower stomach. Effie had one hand under her chest and the other holding Clays hand."well there is the little one, happy and healthy. You actually seem to be about 8 weeks along. All is good."He says. Effie stopped and sighed. Wait eight weeks. Omg 8 weeks that was before the wedding. That wasn't a flu she had.Effie then thought oh god I am going to be one of those pregnant chicks who barely shows even when she is like 8 months pregnant.

[KneelingAngel]

"Alright." The doctor said and pointed at the baby on the screen again. "See this little thing here?" He asked and pointed at the lower part of the baby. "Congratulations, you are going to have a healthy baby boy."


Justice squealed in happiness and pulled James closer. They were going to have a boy. Omg she was so happy! The doctor laughed and handed her some tissues to clean herself up and walked out to get the pictures for the couple. "Oh my God, were going to have a boy!" Justice mbeamed and jumped James after quickly wiping her stomach off. "Oh my God, were' really going to have a baby boy!" It took a couple of seconds before tears swelled up and started to cry. She buried her face in James's chest and let herself cry in happiness. It suddenly seemed more close then it already was.


About eight weeks? Clay's eyes went wide. That was even before the wedding! He stared at the screen and had a big smile on his face. That was his baby on the screen, he couldn't be happier. Clay kissed the back of Effie's hand. He would have jumped her if the doctor wasn't there. He had a feeling that his life couldn't get any better... There was just one thing. "Doctor, what about the tour?" He asked. "I mean, she can come with, right? For how long is she allowed to be on stage before it can damage the baby?" He knew that he didnt want to know the answer, but he would rather have Effie and the baby safe and cancel the tour, then damage both his wife and the unborn baby. Hopefully what Justice had said was the truth.

 

[Dark_Psycho]

James beamed when the doctor said boy.He was pulled closer to her. He smiled. He was beaming with pride. Qhen the doctor left she jumped him and he chuckled holding her."Yes my love a healthy baby boy."He saud holding her. When she started crying he sighed and kissed her cheek. He rocked her back and fourth gently. James just let her cry into him. He just kwpt kissing her and rubbing her back for that was all he could do.He knew her emotions were high and be even more heightened with pregnancy hormones.


Effie clung to Clays hand that was there baby. She was smiles. The doctor handed her tissues m she slowly wiped off her tummy and put her shirt down.


The doctor looks at him." Well it is mostly likely sic months or more and she can only be on stage till about her 32nd week. I don't want her doing anything at all. Effie you will be fine to go on tour as long as your on stage for no more then an hour and do everything healthy for the baby."The doctor says.He got up." I will be right back I will grab your ultra sound picture."he says. When he left Effie sat up and hugged Clay."omg I am 8 weeks. Thats crazy so that means when I had the flu I wasn't actually sick."She says.

[KneelingAngel]

Justice wiped her eyes and pulled back with a smile, glowing like a star. "We have to come up with names and clear a room and make it a nursery!" She beamed. She couldn't be happier then now. But then she suddenly deadpanned and hung her head with a sigh. I'm going to look fat on our wedding." She mumbled and lay her head against his shoulder before beaming up again. "Oh my God, I'm so happy!" She smiled and hugged his neck, crashing her lips on his. "You're the best."


Clay laughed and hugged her back. "And justice was right, you can go on tour. Wait till the fans hear that you're pregnant. They are going to send so much stuff. No more bras on the stage, but baby things." He smiled and kissed her. "We're going to need a bigger mansion." He joked. He's rather go live with just Effie and the baby, but he doubted that Effie wanted to move away now that her sister was going to have a baby as well.

 

[Dark_Psycho]

James laughs. " wow slow down there.Baby mama."He jokes." It will get done, you will be okay. And you will look beautiful for our wedding. Trust me everything is going to be perfect m just like you. Your my perfect little world well that and our little man."He says. He kissed her back and smiles. "Come on love lets go see how your sister is and get to that interview. "He said. "Want me to carry my beautiful amazing love."He asks her gently.


Effie smacked his arm gently. " why don't we just get a damn house of our own that is a bit closer then the last one."Effie says." Hey no bra's on stage then I am out."Effie said joking. She was so happy. She hand one hand on her still pretty flat stomach. The other in his. She kissed him gently and smiles."I love you."She says

[KneelingAngel]

Justice huffed and smiled, pushing herself off of James. "I'm pregnant, not handicapped." She joked and gave him a kiss. The doctor gave them their pictures and they walked out to where Effie and Clay were. "So?" Justice asked when they enter the hospital room. "How did it go?" She asked with a cheeky smile. "What did the doctor say?"


Clay laughed and kissed her back when Justice came walking in together with James. "Good." He smiled. "The baby is healthy, the tour is still on.." Then he looked at his watch. "And were; going to be late for our interview. This is the life."

 

[Dark_Psycho]

James laughed and took the photos. He shook his head and walked hand in hand with her.They walked to where Effie and Clay were. Effie was beaming, yet still looked worried. He sighed and laughed. "So all went well then, oh good lord. We are going to be late." He says.He picked Justice up and walked for the door."sorry Miss but we have to fly."He said winking at her.He kissed her as he gently placed her in the car. They waited on clay and Effie.


Effie stood slowly she was shaky. When her sister had come in and asked so she nodded to her and bit her lip.She could go on tour and all was working out. She took the photos thanking the doctor.Effie walked hand in hand with Clay to the car. They slipped in the back and she looked at her sister. "Let me see and Boy or girl?"She asks her sister. Her sister was farther along definitely. She however still didn't even look 8 weeks.


Irish Ice Queen

 

[KneelingAngel]

Justice smiled and handed her sister the pictures. "We're gonna have a boy." She beamed happily. "The doctor said the I was in the middle of my second trimester, whatever that means, I'm already twenty weeks, or so he guessed." She smiled. "It's weird though, I've never really been sick like you. But we're both pregnant, our kids could play together!" She suggested happily. "Oh, are you guys going to announce the baby during the interview? If so I think I'll have to add more security with all the paparazzi. They're after me because of James but you two are both in the band so well probably have to assign you some bodyguards of some sort I think. Do you know if the baby's a boy or a girl?" Justice asked. "Could the doctor already see it? Let me see your picture." Justice was too happy to stop talking. She was happy to be the manager, she wouldn't have to go on stage.

Effie bit her bottom lip as she smiled. She looked at the photo."awww a baby boy that is awesome. I know it is weird you haven't been as sick as me. Oh well each pregnant woman is different. "Effie says. "I dont know, but I probably should, not that I will be showing till about six months or so and even then Ill look 3 months pregnant.I mean I am already 8 weeks and I still have a flat stomach."Effie says. She placed a gentle hand on her stomach."no to early in the pregnancy to know if it's a boy or girl have to wait till I am about as far as you."Effie says. She was happy, her hand slipped into Clays for comfort.She hands her sister her ultra sound. "I am actually glad now our kids can grow up together m"she said and sighed as the car pulled up.

[KneelingAngel]

Justice laughed as the car stopped. "Trust me." She said and put a hand on her own stomach. "Being this big isn't funny. My back is already killing me and my feet are starting to hurt, but let's go." She said and got out of the car. "Security will show you to the dressing rooms, if anything happens I'll be in the crowd, okay?" She smiled and gave James a quick kiss before walking away and into the studio, just in for hearing Graham doing the opening.


"You'll get bigger, darlin." Clay smiled and kissed her cheek and stomach before getting out of the car. He held out his hand and waited for Effie to take it. "Let's go and get dressed before we miss our interview."
