“I might have had a bit of practice,” Ric chuckled, his smile playful as he looked over at Jenna. The truth was that he hadn’t at all, when he and Helen got together it was after the two of them had been friends for a long time and they’d finally realised that they had fallen for each other. With Isobel it had been completely the opposite, they’d both had a fiery temper at times and there had been sparks between them straight away. With Jenna it had been different again, she had started out as just the legal guardian of two of his students but as he’d started getting to know her he had realised that there was so much more to her than that. The way she’d stepped in to look after Elena and Jeremy really was incredible and seeing the strength she had showed had made it easier for him to do the same for Kyle and Abby. The idea that they were going to be adding a baby to the mix still a lot to get his head around but Ric couldn’t be happier. Seeing the way that Jenna let her hand rest against her stomach was enough to bring a smile to Ric’s face and he moved his hand so that it was covering hers. As she suggested that they go for a walk, he nodded. “Sure,” he said before laughing as she went on to say that she was craving tomato soup. “I guess I’m going to have to get used to your random cravings, aren’t I?” he chuckled, taking her hand in his and returning the squeeze to her hand as they headed outside. “I know better than to let you go hungry, we’ll get you some soup,” he added with a grin. He really was going to be at Jenna’s beck and call, he knew that he was going to make sure that she had everything that she wanted. “It might be but what can it hurt?” he shrugged as they walk before his expression turned thoughtful as Jenna suggested the name Elizabeth. “I like that. We could shorten it to Lizzie,” he agreed. “How about Joshua for a boy?”JENNA SALTZMAN

Jenna let out a chuckle as she nudged Alaric away with her elbow when he mentioned that he'd had practice with making a girl swoon. "You're ridiculous." She said in the midst of her laughter as she moved her hand up to curl her hair behind her ear. Jenna knew that he was joking around, so she wasn't actually offended or jealous. She knew how Alaric looked when he was teasing and that expression on his face definitely gave it away. "Why do I put up with you again?" She continued to tease, her grin still present on her lips after finishing her words.
Jenna smiled up at Alaric when his hand moved to cover hers. It made those weird butterflies awaken in her stomach all over again. It all felt like a dream. One she certainly did not want to wake up from. "Yuuuup." She popped the 'p' and sent Alaric a smile. "Oh yeah, you definitely want a hungry and pregnant Jenna hot on your heels." She chuckled, making a gesture with her hands as if she were a spooky monster that one needs to be weary of. "You're definitely not wrong there." That definitely made her feel better. "Yes! In case she feels like that name is old or something." Jenna agreed with a nod of her head following. "I like Joshua a lot, actually." It was really cute and right up her alley too. "This feels so strange. In a great and wonderful way." Jenna's voice was soft as she spoke, her smile never leaving her lips for even a second. "It feels like it was just yesterday when I was in my infamous rebellious phase. Now, I'm going to be a mom." God, it felt weird saying it out loud. Mom.

Ric couldn’t stop a smile from working its way across his face as Jenna said that he was ridiculous. He hadn’t meant what he’d said in the least but it had been worth it to get that reaction out of her. He knew how worried she had been when she’d realised that there was something going on with her and he had tried not to let her know that he was worried too but he would be lying if he said that it wasn’t a relief to know what they were up against now. It wasn’t at all what he had expected but now that he thought about it he couldn’t deny that it made sense. As she spoke again, an innocent look worked its way across his face as he looked over at her. “Because you love me,” he said simply, knowing that it was true even as the words left his lips. It was going to take time for the news that Jenna was pregnant to truly sink in but as Ric brought his hand up and let it rest over Jenna’s hand on her stomach he couldn’t help but feel happy. He hadn’t known whether Jenna wanted kids of her own at all since it wasn’t something that they had ever talked about but now he knew that they were both on the same page and it was a relief to say the least. He had Kyle and Abby to think about and Jenna had Elena and Jeremy but now they had a baby of their own on the way and he couldn’t deny that it felt like things were finally starting to slot into place within their family. “I definitely don’t want to incur the wrath of that Jenna,” he chuckled, wrapping his arms around her waist despite the spooky gesture she was trying to make before drawing her in for a kiss. “Exactly,” he nodded. Elizabeth could be a bit of an old fashioned name at times but at least the option was there to make it a bit more modern. “So Elizabeth for a girl and Joshua for a boy? I like the sound of that,” he admitted before feeling as smile work its way across his face as she spoke again. “You’re going to be an incredible mom,” he assured her, taking her hand in his once more as they walked.

Jenna felt a smile touch her lips at Alaric's words and really, she didn't even try to deny that she loved him. She loved him more than words could ever describe. "Yeah, I do." She said instead with a struck smile on her lips. A love-struck smile, that is. She moved her hand up to tuck a strand of hair behind her ear. She never thought she'd find love again after her previous love experience which was the worst of the worst. For a while, she wanted to steer clear from love but Alaric swept her off her feet and helped her realize that she was worthy of being loved and worthy of experiencing true love. With him, she felt at ease and absolutely elated.
Jenna chuckled when he didn't get spooked by her expressions. Instead, he drew her in for a kiss which she responded back to almost immediately. "You're such a dork." She said against his lips with a grin on her lips. "My dork." She added a moment later, her nose wrinkling at how corny she was being, but it was the truth. He was hers as much as she was his. "I really love that." Jenna admitted with a soft smile on her lips. Jenna felt her cheeks heat up at his next words before she jokingly nudged him. "Stop." She said at first, still feeling her heart beating rapidly in her chest all because of him. "But... Yeah, I think you're right. I'm going to be a good mom because I'm going to have you by my side, Ric. You're a wonderful dad, so I want to be a wonderful mom, too." Jenna said in a soft voice, feeling so overwhelmed by happiness and it was quite clear on her face how she felt in that moment. "Now stop before I cry for real." Jenna added shortly after with a chuckle and a sniff following.

Ever since Jenna had told him that something was wrong with her, Ric had been worried. He knew that she wouldn’t have been scared the way she was if there wasn’t anything to it but he had been doing his best to stay strong for her. He had known that the last thing she had needed was him freaking out before they even knew what they were facing so he had been doing his best to make sure that that didn’t happen. He hadn’t expected to find out that Jenna was pregnant but he knew that it definitely wasn’t her fault, it took two to tango and while it was true that they hadn’t talked about having kids he had never closed himself off to the idea. Just a few months ago he had learned that he was the father of two teenagers which again wasn’t what he had expected but they were figuring that out and he knew that they would do the same with this too. “Lucky for me,” Ric grinned. He still didn’t know how he had ended up being so fortunate but he loved Jenna and she loved him too so he was glad that things had worked out the way they had done even if life seemed to be throwing a few different curve balls their way. “I am yours and you’re mine,” he said as he brought his hand up and let it rest lightly against her cheek. They were tied together now in a way that he hadn’t seen coming at all but he knew that he wouldn’t have it any other way. “I don’t know about that, I have no idea what I’m doing half the time,” he admitted. He was used to dealing with teenagers while he was at work and he had been doing his best to help Jenna with Elena and Jeremy as well but it was completely different when they were his own. He was always scared that he was going to do or say the wrong thing and he already had on a few occasions but he was trying his best. “You’ve had practice with Elena and Jeremy though and they’ve turned out pretty great,” he added before laughing as Jenna spoke again. “Alright, I don’t want you falling apart on me now so let’s get you something to eat,” he said, giving her hand a squeeze as they continued walking.

Lucky for me, I am yours and you’re mine, I don’t know about that, I have no idea what I’m doing half the time,
Jenna felt a smile touch her lips at Ric's words. "All yours." She said with no doubt in her words. She turned her head to look at Alaric, her head tilting slightly to the side before she shook her head. "Hey. None of that. You're a wonderful person, Alaric Saltzman. How could you ever be a bad father? I believe in you and I know you. So don't say that again." She gave his hand a gentle squeeze, her softening gaze resting on him alone.
You’ve had practice with Elena and Jeremy though and they’ve turned out pretty great, Alright, I don’t want you falling apart on me now so let’s get you something to eat,
"Oh trust me. It didn't happen without me having at least thirty panic attacks about it because it felt like I wasn't a good guardian to them." She assured with a small smile on her lips. "But I won't let you go through that, you hear? I'll be there for you and you'll be there for me. You're my anchor and I'm yours, yeah?" Jenna gave his hand another gentle squeeze. She let out a chuckle at Ric's words before she nodded her head in a silent agreement. "Absolutely, baby. Let's go." She just knew that whatever happens, they'll deal with it. They'll be fine. She believed in the two of them and that was more than enough.

Ric had known that Jenna wasn’t the kind of person to worry about nothing so the moment she had told him that something was wrong he had taken it pretty seriously. He had known that she hadn’t wanted to get herself checked out but now he was glad that he had insisted. Between them they already had four teenagers that relied on them and in a few months they were going to have a new baby to add to the mix. It was a little daunting to say the least especially since he hadn’t been there for Kyle or Abby when they were babies but it was going to be different this time around. This time he knew that he was going to become a dad and he was going to be there with Jenna every step of the way. They were a team and he knew that she wasn’t going to shut him out the way that Helen had done so even though he was nervous he was excited about it as well. “Alright, I won’t,” Ric chuckled. “My dad was incredible while I was growing up, hopefully I’ll be able to do the same.” There was still the voice in the back of his mind telling him that he was going to screw up but he knew that he didn’t want to let Jenna or their baby down so he had to keep that voice buried deep. He had already cut back on his drinking after Abby moved in with him and now he had even more of an incentive to keep that up. That was something that he could control and even though he knew that it would perhaps be safer for his growing family if he walked away from hunting he also knew that he had to keep Jenna and the kids safe so that wasn’t an option. “Deal. We’re a team and we’ll figure this out together,” he nodded. “It might have been difficult at first but you did great with Elena and Jeremy so I know it will be the same this time around too,” he added. Jenna always seemed like a natural with the kids and that was something that he had always admired in her. He had practice at dealing with kids at school and he did his best to help them if they needed it away from the place as well but this was different and he knew that it was going to take some getting used to. Kissing Jenna’s cheek gently Ric turned and headed in the direction of the car. “What are you in the mood for?”JENNA SALTZMAN
