Epilogue

I stare down at the little plastic stick in my hand, my heart racing in my chest. Two pink lines. Two undeniable, life-changing lines. I'm pregnant.

A wave of emotions crashes over me - joy, fear, excitement, uncertainty. I feel like I'm standing on the edge of a cliff, about to take a leap into the unknown. But beneath the fear, there's a growing sense of wonder, a tiny flicker of hope and possibility.

I rest my hand on my still-flat stomach, imagining the little life growing inside me. A part of me, a part of the men I love. Tears prick at the corners of my eyes, and I let them fall, a watery smile spreading across my face.

I know this won't be easy. Our relationship is unconventional, to say the least, and adding a baby to the mix will only complicate things further. But I also know that this child will be loved beyond measure, that they will have three incredible fathers who will move heaven and earth to keep them safe and happy.

I take a deep breath, trying to calm the butterflies in my stomach. I need to tell the guys, need to share this news that will change all of our lives forever. But I'm nervous, unsure of how they'll react. We've talked about kids in an abstract sense, but we've never made any concrete plans. What if they're not ready? What if they don't want this?

I push the doubts aside, knowing that I need to have faith in our love, in the strength of our bond. We've faced challenges before, and we've always come out stronger on the other side. This will be no different.

I slip the pregnancy test into my pocket and head downstairs, my heart pounding with every step. I find the guys in the living room, sprawled out on the couches and engrossed in some video game. They look up as I enter, their faces breaking into easy smiles.

"Hey, baby," Alex says, patting the spot next to him. "Come join us."

I hesitate, my nerves getting the best of me. "Actually, can I talk to you guys about something? It's important."

They exchange glances, concern etched on their features. Ethan pauses the game, and they all turn to face me, giving me their full attention.

"What's up, love?" Liam asks, his blue eyes searching mine. "Is everything okay?"

I take a shaky breath, my hands trembling slightly as I reach into my pocket and pull out the pregnancy test. I hold it up, letting them see the two pink lines.

"I'm pregnant," I say softly, my voice barely above a whisper.

For a moment, there's only silence, their faces frozen in shock. And then, like a dam breaking, the room explodes with noise and movement.

"You're pregnant?" Alex repeats, his eyes wide with wonder. "We're going to have a baby?"

I nod, tears spilling down my cheeks. "We're going to have a baby."

He leaps off the couch, sweeping me up into his arms and spinning me around. I laugh through my tears, clinging to him tightly.

Ethan and Liam are right behind him, their arms wrapping around us in a group hug. I'm surrounded by their warmth, their love, their joy. It's overwhelming in the best possible way.

"How far along are you?" Ethan asks, his hand coming to rest on my stomach.

"Six weeks, I think," I say, leaning into his touch. "I've been feeling a little off lately, so I took a test. And then another. And another."

Liam laughs, pressing a kiss to my temple.

I grin, feeling some of the tension drain from my body. They're happy. They want this. We're going to be a family.

"I know this is a lot," I say, my voice growing serious. "And I know it won't be easy. But I also know that this child will be so loved, so cherished. And I can't think of three better men to be their fathers."

Alex cups my face in his hands, his thumbs brushing away my tears. "We're in this together, baby. Always. No matter what."

"We're going to be the best damn dads this kid has ever seen," Ethan adds, his green eyes bright with determination.

"And you're going to be an incredible mom," Liam says softly, his hand squeezing mine. "This baby is lucky to have you."

I feel a rush of love and gratitude wash over me, so strong it takes my breath away. These men, these incredible, amazing men, are my everything. And now, we're going to be parents together. It's a dream come true.

THE END.
