"How should we tell them?" Luke asked you as he drove to his parents' house.

"I think you should go in first," you said, laying your head back on the headrest as you looked at your one-month-old, "They're gonna be all excited to see you and I think Morgan should have her own moment."

You managed to keep your pregnancy – and the birth – a secret from everyone. It wasn't that difficult with both you and Luke living a couple hours away from your parents and the fact that the band had been on break for about a year now. But you were obviously incredibly excited to officially introduce the newest Hemmings to everyone.

"How do you want me to get you in the house?"

"Just tell them I'm getting something from the car and I'll be in in a minute," you shrugged, "That shouldn't give anything away, right?" As Luke turned onto the street, you piped up again. "How mad do you think your mom will be?"

"Actually mad or pretending to be mad?" he chuckled.

"Both," you giggled.

"Pretending to be, 110%; Actually, -600%" he teased, "She could never get mad at you – you're her favorite." You simply rolled your eyes, smiling at him when he winked at you in the rearview mirror.

Luke pulled into your in-laws' driveway, killing the car's engine. He then turned his upper body so he could look at you.

"How long are you gonna wait?" he asked.

"I'm not gonna start getting her out until the door closes behind you," you informed him. Luke nodded in response and you saw his bottom lip jut out slightly. You rolled your eyes again, knowing what he wanted.

You unbuckled your seatbelt and leaned forward, kissing him. You felt him smile just before you pulled back.

Luke's POV

Luke finally got out of the car, feeling your eyes on him as he trotted up to his parents' front door. He stood there for a couple moments after knocking before the door opened – and Liz's scream was almost deafening. Andy immediately rushed into the room, his jaw dropping and a smile on his face as Liz brought him inside.

"What are you doing here?!" he exclaimed, hugging his son when his wife finally let go.

"We wanted to visit for Christmas!" Luke laughed.

"Oh, is Y/N here too?!" Liz asked hopefully. He had always felt so lucky that his parents loved you so much – and he knew they'd love their newest granddaughter that much more.

"Yeah, she's outside," the blonde nodded, "She had to get something from the backseat, but she'll be here any minute."

Your POV

You couldn't help but laugh as you saw Liz grab her son roughly and pull him in for a hug. You didn't get to see Andy's reaction, because Luke was brought into the house, as you began your phase of the plan.

Morgan fussed around a bit as you unbuckled her seatbelt and lifted her out of the car seat, but she quickly calmed back down when she was situated comfortably in your arms. You scooted over to the door, grabbed Morgan's diaper bag, and carefully got out of the car.

You went to the front door and just walked in – as quietly as you possibly could – knowing Luke had led Andy and Liz to the kitchen by now. And the moment they saw you, they gave you the exact reaction you thought they would.

"Hey, guys!" you chirped as you rounded the corner, dropping the diaper bag at the entrance so you didn't have to hold it anymore.

Luke was leaning up against the countertop while his parents were sitting on the barstools facing away from you. They turned their heads and it was like you could visibly see the air get knocked out of them.

"You're joking," Andy insisted.

"Are you serious?" Liz's eyes were as wide as you'd ever seen them, "Whose baby is that?"

"Ours," Luke smiled widely.

"No way," she shook her head, "No."

"I was in labor for 14 hours," you grinned, "I promise she's ours."

"It's a girl?" Andy honestly looked like he was about to burst into tears – his wife already crying.

Liz finally got up, her hand covering her mouth as she hurried over to you. She put her hand on the top of Morgan's head, brushing her hair with her thumb gently.

"When did this happen?" she asked.

"Last month," you told her, truthfully tearing up yourself, "November 20th."

"Oh, Mikey's birthday!" she smiled, "Does he know?"

"Nope!" Luke said, "You guys are the first to see her!"

"We are?" Andy beamed, getting up and coming over to you as well so he could kiss the top of the baby's head, "What's her name?" You glanced at Luke and he nodded with a smile, wanting you to tell them.

"Morgan Elizabeth," you answered.

"Seriously?" Liz looked back up at you.

"Anything else would have felt wrong," you giggled, wrapping an arm around her as she hugged you.

"Stop it! You're gonna make me start crying again!" You couldn't help but laugh, shifting Morgan slightly.

"I don't know why I'm the one still holding this baby," you teased – and, of course, Liz immediately took her from you.

"Have you guys placed bets on what color you think her eyes will be?" Andy chuckled, his arm around Liz as he gaped down at the baby in her arms.

"No," you laughed, "But she looks almost exactly like I did when I was born, so I'm hoping she ends up with the second set of blue eyes I'll ever fell in love with."

You watched a smile pull at the corners of Luke's mouth as he pushed himself off of the counter and walked over to you. He wrapped his arms around your waist and pulled you in, kissing you for a few seconds before pulling back and moving behind you, resting his chin your shoulder as he watched his parents admire their granddaughter.
