“And Mrs. Bridger, I wanted to say congratulations on the baby.” The principal said rather loudly, thus ending any real speculation on either her place or on the baby.
“Thank you,” Kristen said as she looked at the man. She could read what he was really doing in the hallway. She smiled at Greg. “He will no doubt be just like his father.”
“Here is to hoping she is wrong,” Greg said with a laugh. “Anyway, thank you, sir. Now I will take my wife and go get the rest of my things, and I will see you tomorrow.”
“Yes. Go.” The older man said with a chuckle. “Go enjoy some time together before the baby is born. Lord knows they take up most of it when they are little.”
Greg and Kristen walked down to the hallway his classroom was in, and he squeezed her hand in his. He walked into his class and was surprised to see three of his students from different cl

“We want to be as clear as a window,” Kristen said as she struggled to get up again. This was a normal thing for her right now. As she stood, the three men saw her bend over and get the folder of papers out of Greg’s briefcase. He had been carrying those around since the day they got married, but before that, he had a copy of her IDs and birth certificate in there as well. Knowing that this was going to come to a head sooner or later. Kristen handed it to the police officer and then took her place next to her husband and waited.“Well, this is straightforward.” The man chuckled. “Can I ask why you had these ready?”“A few of the teachers here had asked me to go out for drinks. It is well known that the teachers go out almost every Friday and get some at the place down the street. I turned them down every time.” Greg said.“Why?” the officer asked.

They were on edge for a few days after the incident at the school. Greg had found out the next day the extent of what this woman was capable of when the police came back to question him again during his break. She had begun to spin a tale that he was having an affair with her, but when his teenage girlfriend got pregnant, he had to do the right thing and marry her. However, the fact was his wife was not as she seemed to be. She was a lot younger than Greg had said she was. The other woman also went on to say that Greg had a thing for very young girls as well, and that was one of his kinks in the bedroom.Greg didn’t know whether to laugh hard or start to cry. This woman was trying to not only end his career but paint him as a freak who preyed on children. He could feel his temper starting to boil over. “I honestly have no idea which thing to tackle first. This is all so far-fetched. That I am shocked.” Greg said when he could as h

It wasn’t that day. It wasn’t the next. Two days after the police paid Greg a visit at school that Kristen noticed that a few things seemed off around her car in the morning. She ignored it, though, knowing that she needed the extra time to get around when she got to school. Now that she was getting bigger with the growth of the baby, it was making her have a hard time walking and getting up. She was adjusting to the newness of her body as it changed.When she got to her first class, she was already worn out from the moving around. She knew that she had to get to the class and then she could rest. That was when she thought she felt someone watching her a little too closely. She turned to see but couldn’t see anyone there. She walked into the building, and the feeling passed. The energy coming from her abdomen was also high. However, it was trying to reach out to calm her down more than anything else.The cl

When Greg arrived, the entire area was roped off. He began to wonder if something had happened to an actual person instead of just a car which he saw as well. He was disgusted with the look of it, and it seemed everyone around the area was as well. That was when he spotted the woman in question in the back of a squad car. She started squealing when she saw him at the same time.“My wife is in there, Kristen Bridger,” Greg said when he got to the front of the crowd that was waiting to see what was going to happen.“She is fine.” The officer said as he lifted the tape for Greg to duck under and walk into the building. He saw where the majority of people were standing. He walked over and saw most of the officers he had to talk to at the school and the ones that must work around the school. They all nodded as they watched him, and he heard some tell the others, “That i

A month later, it was time to see the baby on the ultrasound. Though they both were sure that he was okay. Greg was nearly bouncing off the wall with excitement though he was trying not to show it, but that showed it even more. He remembered the first time they had sex, and he had been the one to push that they are safe and use protection. He looked at her growing abdomen and realized that if he had continued to push that this wouldn’t be happening to them now. He placed his hand there.“Are you okay?” Kristen asked as he seemed to dim in excitement for a few minutes. He had been so excited that the momentary dimness seemed greater than anything else.“I was thinking of the beginning of this.” He said. “The beginning of us.”“I know.” She said as she looked at him and laughed.“You know I would have pushed this off for years because I thought it would

“Twins?” Greg asked with a huge smile.“It seems that the two of them have been hiding one behind the other. They are both a good size which explains the slight increase in your size as well.” The doctor said as he looked at Kristen. She was taking it all in. Greg looked at her and saw the look on her face. It wasn’t that she was unhappy it was more she was clearly shocked by the news. She only thought there was one baby in there that she had been dealing with.Kristen nodded to the people who were talking. She had retreated and knew she had to regroup and quickly. This was going to be more than they had thought. She would need two of everything, at least sometimes they would. She began to process everything as he was talking, and she looked at Greg. He was okay with this. It wasn’t going to be a bad thing.As the tech and the doctor left and Kristen was wiping off her stomach. Greg

Greg called his parents for the first time in a few months. He knew that they would be okay without talking for so long and probably wouldn’t even notice how long it had been. He had Kristen living with him when he did call the last time, but he hadn’t told his parents about her then. He didn’t think they would mind, but he really didn’t want to hear them preach to him about a younger woman and all the risks he was taking to his career. It wasn’t the only reason as well. He didn’t want his mother to scare her. He knew how the older woman could be. She had tried to take over the relationships of his older brothers. Even the four that were her stepkids. She had driven a wedge in their dating life at the time and then with their wives. Greg was not willing his mother to try and do that with his life.“Hi, mom.” He said as they picked up the phone together, “Dad.”&ldqu

Greg was driving the hour to go back to his parent's house while holding her hand. He was going over everything he had told her about them to make sure he wasn’t leaving anything out. He looked at her, and though she remained calm looking on the outside, he could feel the energy again coming from her and not the babies. “Why today?” she asked as she looked at him. She hadn’t really said anything the entire time.“What?” he asked, confused as he tried to find the right words to answer her as well.“Why did you decide to tell your parents about me today?” Kristen asked as she looked at him. “We have been together for months now. We have been married for a few months as well. I mean, the timing is weird that you want me to meet them today or all days.”“Kristen, first off, I would have told them about you earlier, but I wanted you to be comfortable with the idea of maybe l
