“Are you serious?”

Marian’s high-pitched squeal came through the line, making Avalon wince. She held the phone away from her ear and waited for her sister to calm down.

She chuckled, picturing her heavily pregnant sister jumping up and down. “Yes, I’m serious.”

“When are you due?”

“Around the end of June. I have a doctor’s appointment tomorrow. She’ll do an ultrasound and we’ll know more then.”

“How are you feeling?”

Marian had suffered terribly with morning sickness, much worse than anything Avalon personally had to deal with. Early in the pregnancy, Marian had been hospitalized for dehydration because of it. “It hasn’t been bad overall. Some days are rougher than others.”

Marian grunted. “I hope it eases for you once you’re in the second trimester.” Avalon could hear her sniff. “I can’t believe my little sister’s having a baby of her own.”

Avalon grinned as hot tears pricked the back of her own eyes. “I bet it won’t be long until Gwen and Zane are having kids, too. Before we know it, there’ll be a whole slew of cousins running around.”

“I hope we’ll see you more often.”

Marian’s words brought more tears to Avalon’s eyes. She tried to get home for Christmas most years, but otherwise had been doing her own thing since going to college. But her sister was right. She wanted to be around her family more. She wanted her son or daughter to know her grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. “You will.” It was a promise she intended to keep.

They talked about pregnancy and babies for a little while before conversation turned toward Avalon and Duke’s relationship.

“Things are going slow. But we’re talking more. He’s coming with me to my doctor’s appointment.”

“That’s sweet. He sounds like a great guy, Avalon. You just got off to a rough start.”

Avalon nodded, even though her sister couldn’t see the motion. “He is.”

They spoke for a few more minutes before hanging up. Avalon made Marian promise not to spread the news of the baby until the next day giving Avalon time to call and tell everyone else in the family about her pregnancy.
