Livid Guardian's Endless Coddling

Eva's pregnancy was safe and all her health reports were normal without any complication or issues. Isaac's parents arrived in city B a week earlier to the wedding and the festive atmosphere had created in Isaac's villa the whole week with both of their parents talking and having fun.

To avoid stressing out Eva with more guests, The guests were called for the wedding was very limited. Isaac's grandparents were from his side without any relatives, Eva's grandparents with her father and mother's close friends joined in the list. Isaac's best friend is only Alan and he doesn't really have closer friends in student life, he called his manager and team. Noah and family, Aria, Rian and family were must anyway.

All set off on Saturday and reached the hotel which was under Woods' International. The whole hotel was reserved for the guests and security was high too despite locking down the news of Isaac's wedding and his presence over there.

Since Eva was pregnant and the wedding was in open, they wanted to finish the wedding ceremony before the sun hit the height and the wedding location was twenty minutes' drive from the hotel. So all woke up early to get ready. 

Aria and other girls helped the bride first to get into her gown and calmed her nerves before they went to get ready, letting the photographers make her pose for amazing photographs.

Aria saw her husband still sitting on the bed in the bathrobe after the bath instead of getting ready. "What are you waiting for? I don't babysit, wear your clothes."

Alan kept her laptop aside after checking she doesn't have any urgent matters to tend to and followed her thinking about her words, "Honey, you could try you know. It will also be a practice for you."

Aria saw him holding the shirt and pant in each hand looking at her to choose one, She grabbed her dress and stood in front of him checking him out top to toe. "What's the fun in covering you? I like undre... No, tearing your shirt apart."

Alan: "..." He started feeling like they were reversing the roles. She was becoming shameless, thanks to Eva and he would stand in modesty hearing her. 'Do we have time? I want to bed you now.'

Aria chuckled before tiptoeing to kiss his cheek, "My big boy, I will help you, wait."

'Dummy' Alan sighed looking at her entering the bathroom. Since they had time, he again tossed his clothes away or opened his laptop to respond to some emails and give the heads up to the PR department to handle the netizens and media once Isaac releases the wedding picture that day.

To avoid Eva feeling down if anything goes wrong and explodes in the media negatively, Aria had asked her PR department to keep track of the news. So Alan controlled both sides simultaneously.

Alan spoke when the bathroom door opened, "Honey, I have mailed your PR department... Aria..." He was shocked to see her running out without a word. He stepped out and realized his clothes and was grabbing his pants slender fingers wrapped around his wrist and pulled him away.

Aria who exited rammed on the door of Amelia and Rowan's suite. "Mum... Mum..." The latter had just opened the door but she ran back to her suite that was just a few steps away and pulled Alan out without answering any of the questions. 

"What's wrong? What happened?" Alan got no response.

Rowan and Amelia who noticed her running away followed her thinking something happened to Alan but stopped at the door looking at them. Aria opened her palm for them to see three white long plastic strips to show to them waiting for their reaction watching them alternatively.

Five minutes back...

Aria wanted to use a sanitary pad in precaution and thought about how she could miss her periods for two days as she always got on time or a day early. She noticed the pregnancy kits which were with the sanitary napkins weren't removed from the paper bag. 

Curious, she hesitantly tested one and got a positive, she checked with the other two and got the positive on both. She wanted to deliver news to Amelia and Alan together but she exited the suite in excitement then she returned to take him, Amelia entered their suite and Aria showed the testing strips for them.

Aria saw Alan and Amelia frozen without reacting other than staring at her hand while Rowan smiled just by the thought of becoming a grandfather and caressed Aria's head. "You have to take care of yourself better from now." He said affectionately.

Aria flashed him a bright smile with a nod and hum.

The next, Amelia stood in akimbo and scolded Alan, "Hadn't I told you to enjoy life for a few years? What is your hurry?"

Aria: "..."

Alan spoke in confusion, "It hasn't been fifteen days since we decided."

Aria: "..."

The ones she thought of excited weren't playing by the rules. "Mum, don't you like babies? And you Mr. Husband, shouldn't you be happy that you scored on the first shot?" Then she turned to Rowan making a pitiful face, "Pop, they don't care about me at all."

Rowan chuckled and hugged her looking at two who still needed time to digest the situation. "Wait, let them believe."

Amelia asked, "My young lady, you aren't trying to fool us right?"

"Hmph" She hmphed without leaving Rowan.

"How did you get pregnancy test kits here?" They were in a remote area so she couldn't possibly get it.

Aria: "..."

She really wanted to scream at him saying, 'You are the fool who packed the clothes.' But controlled and looked at Rowan, "Pop, I will not let them touch the baby, only you are allowed."

Alan tried to pull her his arms but she didn't leave Rowan, "I am not talking to you."

Amelia who calmed down suddenly cheered, "My young lady came to me first to tell."

Alan countered his mother, "No, she came back to me."

"You are wrong, she wanted to tell me first."

"It's our baby, of course, she will tell me first."

....

Aria and Rowan: "..." 

Rowan didn't know Alan was capable of making a nonsense argument with others excluding Aria, whereas the latter's lips were twitching without understanding why they were arguing. If she was in city B, Alan would have got to know, since Amelia was also there, she wanted to tell them both, there wasn't first and second there.

Amelia and Rowan didn't understand why Alan was arguing until the suite door was shut leaving them outside. "You... my son, how dare you trick me outside? Let me see my young lady... Alan..."

Aria realized he had diverted the attention, made them take steps back, and shut the door on time. 'Cunning man.' She thought before he scooped her wrapping an arm around her waist and another on her back.

Wrapping her arms, she enjoyed his warm embrace while Amelia was knocking on the door nonstop scolding her son. "Happy?"

Alan responded promptly, "I don't know... What if I won't be a good father? You will be grumpy." He was happy they were going to have a baby, at the same time worried.

Aria could say he was pressured by thinking everything, She spoke cupping his face, "Even I don't know how I will be. Let's take as it comes. Mum and Pop will help us so let's be cool parents." Then she cheekily whispered, "If we can't, Mum and Pop is there." She totally believes in their upbringing so she would dare to slack off if she gets a chance.

Alan's heart lightened hearing her, "Now meet them else Mom will break my leg."

While he went to get ready, Amelia squealed in excitement until Rian and Roxy entered. Then the excitement of the young couple reached higher than the elder couple making her confused if she was pregnant or Roxy.
