Tinsley knew that her mother wouldn’t freakout, least she hoped not; her father on the other hand? Ha, she wasn’t so sure. But that was someone she wouldn’t have to tell for awhile; as far as she knew he was still hiding out in the Bahamas. After calling Rian and telling him she was going to tell her mother and that now would be a good time to tell his own mother, Tinsley sat on the bed that now belonged to her younger sister, staring at the full-length mirror across the room. She was barely showing at all, but knew that in just a few short months, it’d be more than noticable that she was expecting a baby. Taking a deep breath and letting it out, Tinsley stood and walked down the hall to the living room where she found her mother and sisters. She hadn’t planned on telling them together, so she asked Calynda and Catriona if she could talk to their mother alone and afterward, she’d come talk to them about something too. Jonah must have been in his room taking his nap, as Tinsley didn’t see him around. Once the room was empty besides Claire and herself, Tinsley looked at her mother as she sat down on the couch beside her, keeping a few feet between them so Tinsley could turn to her and tuck her feet in typical criss-cross style. “I know that Rian and I said that we weren’t planning to have any children for a couple years, but things have changed. I recently found out that we’re expecting a baby.” Tinsley smiled, waiting for her mother’s reaction; hopefully one of happiness.

Once Tinsley saw tears in her mother’s eyes, she wanted to cry too. It was just who Tinsley was, whether happy or sad tears, if she saw someone crying, she’d usually start too. Before Claire even got to finish what she had to say, the tears were falling from Tinsley’s eyes; but stopped once Claire mentioned the 50’s. That caused her to laugh. She was so happy to hear that her mother was proud of her and Rian, that meant the world to her. Hearing the question about telling her father, Tinsley felt confused. She wasn’t sure how to tell him this. Sure, they were close, but not nearly as close as her and Claire. Or even her and Ronnie; it wasn’t AJ’s fault, but Tinsley wasn’t around him as much as them. It’d be a bit awkward but she’d get through it, and with the touch of her mother’s hand on hers, all those fears instantly went out the window.
