Finding out you were pregnant on your wedding anniversary seemed a little too kismet to be true. Randy sat beside you after you took 2 “just in case” tests, because your period was supposed to start two weeks ago, and he was the one that noticed this.

“What are we gonna do if they’re positive?” you say hugging him, looking for some sort of comfort, he didn’t want to say it, but your question sounded ridiculous to him right now.

“Honey, we’re married, we both have a good, reliable income, we bought this big ass house to fill with kids” he holds you tight “Everything is gonna be alright”

“And if they’re negative?” you sniffled, you didn’t even notice you were crying, you were having a lot of emotions right now

“If they’re negative…i’m not gonna lie maybe i’ll be a little bummed” chuckles softly “i want to be a dad, i want to be the father of your children, but if it’s not the time then, we keep going, it’ll be our time sometime right?” he looks down at you “Are you ready?” you nod as he grabs the tests, upside down.

He counts to three and flips them back up

Your hands go to your mouth, Randy’s eyes get teary, his first instinct is to pull you into his arms in a warmest hug you’ve ever felt. You muttered little “oh my god”s as you yourself get teary eyed again

“I love you” Randy kisses your shoulder, his voice sounding a little broken “I love you i love you so much, thank you for this” he says how pulling away slightly, grabbing you on either side of your face and kissing your lips “This is the best anniversary gift ever” he chuckles into your lips

“We’re gonna be parents” you laugh, like it finally dawned on you, Randy laughs with you, kissing you, hugging you. Soon after, when the emotions settle down a bit, he pulls out his phone, immediately booking your first obgyn appointment.

…

A couple days later, you guys arrive to the appointment, Randy looking a lot more nervous than you. The nurse, a nice older lady calls you over to the room, asking you a few standard questions about yourself, Randy just stands there beside you, rubbing his hands together from how much he was sweating.

“First time?” the nurse said as she gestured you towards the the bed

“Yeah, can you tell?” Randy chuckles

“It’s okay dad, you can sit right there beside mommy, we’re just gonna check everything out, make sure you have a healthy baby” the nurse immediately made Randy feel a lot more comfortable, he sits nexts to you holding your hand and bringing it to his lips, leaving a soft kiss on it.

The nurse puts the gel on your belly, moving the sensor around, finding your little baby.

“Well there’s your little bean” she says smiling ear to ear, you both look at the screen noticing it, small enough for you to miss if you weren’t aware of it, but big enough for you to notice

“Oh my god” Randy’s squeezes your hand lightly, feeling the tears well up in his eyes

“It’s so little” you chuckle in between tears, you can’t believe you’re carrying a little life in you right now, you and Randy’s baby.

Suddenly, the nurse goes quiet as she moves the sensor to another side of your belly “Oh…”

“Oh? Is everything alright?” Randy immediately asked

“No everything looks amazing! i just need to get another angle real quick…do either of you have twins in your family?”

You immediately shook your head no, then looked at Randy, you can feel your heart pounding

“Well, my uncle Marlon was a twin, and my uncle Jackie had twins…why?

“Well” she chuckles “That one you see on the screen is baby A…” “And then here’s…baby B”

Silence.

Randy looks at you, then the nurse, then the screen. Two little figures on it

“Are you…are you sure?” you say as tears roll down your face

“Clear as day mama” she smiles softly as she wipes the excess gel of your belly “Congratulations, you’re having twins”

“Oh lord i’m bout to puke” Randy said as the lady hands him the ultrasound, she leaves the room, giving you both space to process the news. “We’re having two babies”“My grandma and mom are gonna freak out”

“Two babies is crazy Randy, how?” you sit up on the bed

“Guess i’m just that good” Randy says kissing you, you push his shoulder

“You’re disgusting Randall” you laugh as he helps you off the bed

“Baby i’m so happy” he pulls you into a hug before you can make it to the door “Thank you so much for this” his hand goes to your (for now) tiny belly “I promise i’ll be the best dad for y’all, nothing will ever hurt y’all, you will have everything in the world and then some”

You look at him as he speaks, he’s dead serious? a mixture of overwhelmed and happiness washing over both of you, but you couldn’t be more in love, this man proved to be the best husband and now the best father “I have no doubt about it Randy”

As you guys drive home, you can’t help but wonder about the future, being a family of four, a house full of love and laughter, you can’t wait to hold your babies in your arms.

You just hope the next 9 months pass by quickly.

GUYYYYSSS THIS WAS SO CUTE I LOVE RANDY!!!!

jaafar

“baby, you almost ready?” you hear jaafar call for you from downstairs. you were putting the finishing touches on your hair and makeup because jaafar was taking you out to dinner to celebrate your two year anniversary as a married couple. before the two of you left, though, you had one more thing you wanted to do first.

you had been seeing the prank go around on tik tok where girls introduced their partners as their "current boyfriend," and every reaction had been funnier than the last. you especially couldn't wait to try it on jaafar because he wasn't your boyfriend anymore in any sense of the word. he'd been your husband for two years. if anyone was going to have the most confused reaction imaginable, it was going to be him.

you had a pretty nice following on tik tok, not full blown influencer big, but enough that you liked making videos just because they were fun. it had never become your career, and it never needed to. when jaafar proposed, he'd made it clear that if you wanted to work, he would support you completely, but if you ever decided you didn't want to, that was just as okay because he was more than capable of providing for the two of you. it had never been about control with him. it had always been about making sure you knew every choice was yours.

“yeah, baby, i’m coming,” you call back.

after one last swipe of lipstick, you set the tube down and made your way downstairs. the soft click of your heels against the floor was all the warning jaafar needed before he was already crossing the room toward you.

his eyes slowly wandered over you, taking in every detail of your dress until he bit down on his lip, completely captivated. “you look amazing,” he says.

you can't help smiling as you look him over too. dressed in a button up shirt and nice pants, he looked just as handsome as he always did, somehow managing to leave you speechless even after all these years together.

“thank you, baby. you look very delicious,” you say with a wink. his smile immediately spreads across his face, and he ducks his head as a familiar blush creeps into his cheeks beneath your praise. “can we take a quick video before we leave? do we have time? because we look too good not to capture,” you say.

jaafar lets out a quiet laugh before wrapping his arms around your waist from behind, settling comfortably against you as he rests his chin on your shoulder.

“of course we can,” he says. you smile, lifting your phone that was already open to tik tok, and finally press record.

“hi guys… as you can see, i’m here with my current boyfriend,” you start.

jaafar’s expression changes immediately. you watch it happen in the corner of your screen as his easy smile disappears, replaced by a look of complete and utter confusion.

“and we’re about to go out to dinner to celebrate our two year anniversary!” you continue with the same bright smile, but beside you, jaafar has already lifted his chin from your shoulder. instead of looking at the camera, he's looking directly at you, his brows drawn together as he tries to process what you just said.

“baby?” he says, confusion laced in his tone.

“hmm?” you ask as you look at him.

“what was that you called me?” he asks.

“my current boyfriend?” you ask. he nods without taking his eyes off you. “yeah, i was just telling my followers that we’re going out to dinner for our anniversary,” you say.

it takes every ounce of self control you have to keep a straight face. your lips threaten to twitch with every passing second because jaafar keeps cycling through a different expression of confusion, his eyes narrowing, then widening, then narrowing again as he silently tries to understand why his wife of two years had suddenly introduced him as her boyfriend... and why, somehow, the word "current" made it sound even more suspicious.

“i’m your husband,” he says.

you nod without missing a beat. “yeah…”

you answer as though that should settle the matter entirely, but it only leaves jaafar looking even more bewildered. he searches your face for some clue that you're joking, some tiny crack in your composure that will explain why his wife, the woman he'd promised forever to, had just casually introduced him as her "current boyfriend."

“am i being demoted?” jaafar asks. the question catches you completely off guard, and despite how hard you've been trying to hold it together, a laugh slips past your lips.

“no, of course not… what do you mean?” you ask.

“well current boyfriend sounds like i’m not your husband and that you might have another boyfriend on the way,” he says. your heart almost melts right there.

the sincerity in his confusion only makes it harder to keep the prank going because he's trying so earnestly to make sense of something that, in his mind, simply doesn't add up.

“well no, you’re my current boyfriend,” you say.

“i’m your husband of two years… i haven’t been your boyfriend in nearly 4 years, because i spent a year as your fiance,” he says.

another smile tugs at your lips. he's unintentionally laying out the entire relationship timeline like he's presenting evidence in court, hoping that if he explains it logically enough, you'll realize where you've misspoken.

“okay, baby, can i just finish making my video about where we’re going?” you ask.

“yeah, i want to finish the video, but why are you saying i’m your current—” he cuts himself off. his eyes flick down to your phone, lingering there for just a second before realization begins to settle across his face. the confusion slowly dissolves, replaced by a look that makes your stomach tighten because you know exactly what's coming.

he looks back at you. “are you pranking me right now?” he asks.

every bit of laughter you've been fighting spills out at once, leaving you doubled over as the sound echoes through the room. the effort of keeping a straight face disappears completely, and tears begin gathering in your eyes from laughing so hard.

jaafar just shakes his head with an amused smile before taking your phone from your hands. he turns it back toward himself and looks straight into the camera.

“just to let it be known, i am her one and only husband, and that’s never changing,” jaafar says. he ends the recording before handing your phone back to you.

your smile softens as you rise onto your toes to kiss him. the second your lips meet, one of his hands settles more securely around your waist, drawing you closer until there's barely any space left between you.

“i love you, silly girl,” jaafar says as he shakes his head. your grin only grows wider.

“i love you, more… current boyfriend,” you tease. jaafar drops his head with another laugh, already knowing you were going to get one last jab in.

“girl, get your ass in the car,” he says.

your giggles follow the two of you all the way out of the house, lingering between teasing smiles, stolen glances, and the easy kind of happiness that made even a simple drive to your anniversary dinner feel like something worth remembering.

jermajesty:

unfortunately, jermajesty didn’t know that he was about to become the latest victim of one of your tik tok pranks. you had been watching video after video of the "current boyfriend" trend, and every single reaction had you laughing harder than the last. almost immediately, you knew jermajesty had to be next.

when you head downstairs into the living room of your shared apartment, you find jermajesty exactly where you expected him to be, stretched out on the couch with a controller in his hands, completely invested in whatever game he was playing.

phone still in your hand, you walk over without saying a word and he doesn't have to look away from the screen to know you're there.

without pausing his game, jermajesty immediately lifts his arms, silently inviting you into the familiar spot between his legs. you settle comfortably against his chest, and as soon as you're situated, his arms naturally fall back around your waist, holding you there like it's the only place you're meant to be.

you open tik tok, smiling to yourself when you feel him press an absentminded kiss against your temple before returning his attention to the game.

“you gonna make a new video, mama?” he asks when he catches a glimpse of your phone screen and notices the app already open.

“yeah, i was gonna do a storytime about how my homegirl almost got in that fight the last time we went out,” you say. his laugh rumbles through his chest, and you feel every bit of it where you're leaning against him.

“yeah, they’re gonna love that one,” he says. your smile grows a little more mischievous knowing he can't see it, and you finally hit record.

“hey guys… i promised you a storytime, but there was someone who didn’t want to be left out,” you say. you hear jermajesty laugh again, so you tilt the camera up just enough to bring more of his face into frame. “so, as i sit there snuggled up to my current boyfriend while he plays video games, let me tell y’all what happened last week,” you say.

the words barely finish leaving your mouth before the clicking of his controller stops and his game is instantly paused.

you don't even have to turn around to know he's staring at you because you can already see his expression in your phone screen. his brows knit together, his mouth parts slightly, and every trace of focus he'd had on the game disappears as his brain completely abandons the mission in favor of figuring out what on earth you just said.

“hold on… what the hell did you just call me?” he asks. there isn't a hint of irritation in his voice. if anything, he sounds genuinely blindsided, like he's convinced he must have misheard you.

“my current boyfriend?” you say as you tilt your head back to look at him. the look on his face nearly breaks your composure. he's studying you so seriously, searching for some explanation that makes more sense than the words he just heard.

“what does current mean? you got another man lined up after me or something?” he asks. you shake your head innocently.

“no, i was just saying, i was going to tell my current boyfriend, you, and my followers the story,” you say.

jermajesty shakes his head, trying not to laugh even as his confusion continues winning the battle. “we’ve been together for five years,” he says.

you nod. “i know,” you say.

“so why you saying i’m your current boyfriend like you’re gonna replace me?” he asks. you shake your head again.

“no, you’re not being replaced, you’re my current boyfriend,” you say.

his eyebrows pull together even more as he looks at you, then at your phone, then back at you again. you can practically see the gears turning as he tries to connect the dots, and the second his eyes land on the screen one more time, realization begins creeping across his face.

“baby, are you fucking with me right now? stop saying i’m your current boyfriend,” he says. the second those words leave his mouth, your self control completely disappears.

laughter spills out of you before you can stop it, your shoulders shaking as you lean back against him. hearing you laugh is all jermajesty needs to confirm his suspicion because he starts laughing too, tightening his arms around your waist until you're practically trapped against his chest.

still chuckling, he reaches forward and looks straight into your phone's camera. “for the record, i’m her only boyfriend and i will be her husband,” he says before he ends the recording.

your laughter fades almost instantly, instead, warmth rushes into your cheeks as you turn to look at him, caught completely off guard by how naturally those words came out of his mouth.

“really?” you ask.

he nods before leaning down to kiss you. the moment his lips meet yours, you melt into him instinctively, every bit as comfortable there as you had been curled against him only moments earlier.

“mama, you’re mine forever whether you like it or not. i love you,” he says.

your smile softens into something quieter, something full of the kind of certainty that only comes after years of growing up together, choosing each other every day, and somehow still finding new reasons to fall in love. you snuggle deeper into his chest as he unpauses his game, his arm never leaving your waist.

“i love you too, maj.”

randy jr:

you were in randy’s car. you two were heading to hayvenhurst to meet the rest of the family for a fourth of july cookout. your phone was already propped up in the holder attached to the air vent while you fixed your hair, using the front facing camera on tik tok as a mirror while randy finished grabbing a few things from inside the house.

the driver's side door opened a moment later, and the second he settled into his seat, he leaned across the center console, pressing a soft kiss to your cheek. “you ready?” he asks.

you turn toward him with a grin. “yes, but let’s take a cute video together first… you know my tik tok followers love you,” you say.

randy lets out an amused laugh, already shaking his head because he knows exactly where this is going.

the first time he'd accidentally appeared in one of your videos, your comment section had practically exploded. thankfully, your followers were respectful, but ever since then they'd constantly ask when randy was going to make another appearance.

in reality, though, it wasn't so much that he liked making videos as much as he loved indulging you. if you wanted to drag him into another couples trend, he'd sigh dramatically, tease you for five seconds, and then do it anyway because seeing you happy was worth every ounce of embarrassment.

“of course, i can’t disappoint my fans,” he teases.

you roll your eyes, but you’re still smiling. “whatever, boy,” you say as you hit record. randy leans over once more, stealing another kiss against your cheek before settling back into his seat, and your smile widens as you turn the camera toward the two of you.

“hey guys… happy fourth of july. i’m here with my current boyfriend randy, and we’re gonna head to his family’s house for a cookout and pool party,” you say with an easy smile.

you're so focused on sounding natural that you don't notice the way randy's expression changes almost instantly. his head slowly tilts toward you, his brows pulling together as he replays your words in his head, genuinely trying to figure out if he somehow heard you wrong.

“hold on… what did you just say?” he asks, a small, disbelieving laugh slipping into his voice. you blink at him with practiced innocence.

“i said me and my current boyfriend, which is you, we’re going to your family’s house for the cookout… is that not what we’re doing?” you ask.

randy studies you for another second before one eyebrow slowly lifts. “yes… that’s where we’re going. can i see your hand real quick?” he asks.

the second he says it, you already know exactly what he's thinking, and instead of giving him the hand he wants, you stretch your right hand toward him.

he looks down at it, then back up at you, completely unimpressed. “you know what hand i’m asking for, girl,” he says.

the tiny smile threatening your lips only grows as you finally place your left hand in his. he takes it gently, lifting it in front of your phone so the engagement ring catches the camera perfectly.

“now, everyone, i have a question. if this ring is on her left hand… why am i being called a current boyfriend?” he asks.

it's so unmistakably randy that you nearly lose it right there. he isn't even arguing with you anymore. he's presenting physical evidence to your followers, completely convinced that the ring alone should settle the debate.

you bite down on your lip so hard it almost hurts, doing everything you can to keep yourself from laughing.

“baby, stop come on, let’s just finish the video,” you say, giving his hand a gentle squeeze before letting go. you turn back toward your phone with remarkable composure. “okay, like i was saying, going to my current boyfriend’s family’s house for a cookout and a pool party,” you say.

randy lets out another incredulous laugh before turning fully toward you. “baby!” he exclaims.

“what?” you ask as you look at him.

“i just showed them the ring, they know i’m not your boyfriend, stop with the current boyfriend bull,” he says. the sheer disbelief on his face finally breaks whatever composure you had left.

a fit of giggles escapes you as you turn toward him, your shoulders shaking while he watches you with the kind of smile that says he should've known this whole thing had your fingerprints all over it.

he lets out a quiet sigh through his own laughter before looking directly into your phone. “this is my wife, and she’s not going anywhere,” randy says. your laughter softens as you look back at him, one eyebrow lifting.

“oh, so i’m a hostage now?” you tease.

randy immediately shakes his head, laughing harder now as he reaches over and gives your thigh an affectionate squeeze.

“stop playing with me, girl.”

the two of you dissolve into laughter together, and somewhere between the teasing, the engagement ring still sparkling on your hand, and the way he couldn't stop smiling at you even after you'd successfully gotten him with the prank, you realize this is exactly why your followers loved seeing him in your videos.

every trend somehow stopped being about the camera after a few seconds and became about the two of you, slipping so effortlessly into the comfortable rhythm you'd built together that it was impossible to fake.
