As can be expected the many nights at Hals could only lead to one thing....
Christian was of course delighted to realize she'd be having a little one. Maybe Hal would even propose! Oh how great that would be they'd be a little family!
That hope was dashed when she told him and he simply stared at her stomach for a long minute before giving her a thumbs up and returning to preparing his salad. She was sure he was just shocked and soon he'd be on his knee.
Wanting to be prepared for the new arrival she headed off to the library to read a pregnancy book. She felt much more prepared once she finished it and decided it was time to tell Spencer.
Spencer was much more excited, although a little worried. He assured her he'd be there to help every step of the way and couldn't wait to meet his new niece or nephew!
He stayed up late that night hacking away managing to get 200 simoleons for his effort. They now had enough to afford a crib. Though they wouldn't be able to build another room yet and the baby would have to be in the living room at least they'd have a bed.
Somewhere across town trouble was brewing unknown to Christian. Hal it seemed had taken a liking to town floozy Shirley Lin. The two made no attempts to hide their shameless flirting. Though it being the middle of the night there really wasn't anyone to see them.
Spencer was getting lucky on the love front as well. He'd struck up a flirtation with Hannah Jones. Though what he didn't know was that she was actually married. Not that it was his fault since she had shown up and started flirting with him.
Even though he showed no interest in the pregnancy Hal still invited Christian over almost every night. One night in particular he asked her to slow dance and even dipped her despite her being heavily pregnant.
That very night she went into labor in his kitchen! He proved to be no help standing in the middle of the room screaming. She was forced to call a cab and take herself to the hospital.
He did eventually she up and even accompanied her and their new son Newton home. Though he left pretty quickly and didn't even hold the baby. Christian however was too exhausted to notice and fell right into bed.

A/N
When I got the notification that Hal and Shirley were getting romantic I tracked them down and even attempted to get Christian there to catch them. Unfortunately by the time she got there Shirley had taken off! So Hal lives to see another day lol. Hannah really did just come over and start flirting with Spencer... she does this a lot actually. They haven't done much other than flirt and hang out however. Poor Spencer is being mostly neglected since I have to direct Christian around town to find collectibles and he can only hack at night so he mostly sleeps all day. The is if he's not on baby duty! Newton is a toddler in game and he's a little cutie though he looks a lot like his dad. I'm not sure if he will be the heir yet. Anyway thanks for reading! Sorry its another short one. They'll get longer once I catch up. =)
