HelpRe: Arcadia's Event Congrats - Round 1
in reply to a message by Arcadia
Lily, Circle
DH: Aaron Maxwell Shaffer (29)
DW: Juliet Fiona Nicholas (22)
DD: Maya Abigail Nicholas-Shaffer (nb)
When Juliet found out she was pregnant, she wasn't sure how she felt about it. She finally felt she was settled in at her job and she and Aaron had just gotten a timeline set up for their future. They had planned to move in together in about six months, and if everything went well get married in two years. Now their plans were all going up in flames. She planned to wait a week before telling Aaron, so that she could get herself together enough to talk to him and know what she wanted, but when he came over the night after she found out she was pregnant, she told him.
Aaron was nervous, but reacted fairly well. He immediately asked Juliet if she wanted to get married right away. She declined his offer, but did suggest that they move in before the birth of their child, if only so they would be acquainted enough with the living situation as to not be constantly in each other's way.
Moving in together went well, which is honestly what Juliet and Aaron should have expected, considering the fact that they had basically lived together anyways before moving in together (sleeping one night at Aaron's, one at Juliet's, most of the week). They moved into Aaron's place, although eventually they would like to get a place that is more theirs than Aaron's.
When the baby is born they get a call from Juliet's great aunt, offering them money in exchange for naming rights. They seriously consider it, but ultimately decide they do not need the cash as badly as they need to keep their daughter away from teasing.
Maya is a relatively easy baby. She doesn't look more like one parent than the other, a perfect little combination in her parents' eyes. They pick the name Maya because they like it and the middle name Abigail is for Aaron's younger sister.
Speaking of siblings, Aaron's youngest brother Ben moved to San Francisco for work. He has been unable to find affordable housing in a decent neighborhood yet, so for the moment he is staying with Aaron and Juliet. Maya is currently sleeping in her parents' room so the living arrangement works. Ben pays the couple a little bit of money for the room and in exchange has promised to do some chores and be out of the house by Maya's first birthday or else he will run the risk of getting demoted to the couch! Ben and Aaron are mostly ignoring each other. Juliet is frustrated but isn't willing to interfere.
Could you link to previous rounds? So we can keep the stories straight and what not.
