begonia9508 Oh yes Liz maybe pregnant.
keepsmiling7 Oh that would be so funny to have Max at the drug store checkout counter buying a pregnancy test!

Natalie36 No they didn't!

Part 72
Kat checked herself in the mirror again. She couldn't believe that she was nervous about a date with Justin. She hadn't been this nervous when she when out on her first date almost two years ago with Zack. But she had known that Zack would never last past high school. Hell it only lasted a couple months. She smiled when she heard the door bell ring. She was glad that Carolyn was the only one home. Jason had left twenty minutes ago for a date and Carolyn had give Dave some long list of stuff to get at the store. She heard a soft knock on her door and Carolyn stuck her head in.
"Hey kid, Justin is here."
"I'll be right down."
"OK."
Carolyn left and Kat grabbed her purse and headed down to the living room. She still remembered how bummed Jason was when she won the lone upstairs bedroom. It was also the only room with a private bathroom. She walked down the stairs and into the living room. She smiled when she saw Justin.
"Hey." Said Justin
"Hey." Said Kat
"These are for you Kitten." Said Justin handing her some red roses.
"Thank you."
"Kat, I'll put those in water for you. Have a good time." Said Carolyn
"Thanks Care."
"I won't wait up. Can't count on our brother not doing the same."
"Thanks. Let's go before Dave gets back from the store."
Kat and Justin left. Carolyn smiled happy that her sister had found a sweet guy.

Liz sat in the bathroom staring at the pink stick in her hand. She knew she wouldn't be able to get in to see Dr. Turner until after the new year. Pregnant. Not that she wasn't happy. She was. The timing could have been a little better, but she knew that she and Max would be OK.
"Liz? Are you OK sweetie?" Asked Max through the closed door.
"Yeah Max. I'll be out in just a minute."
It was five minutes later Liz came out of the bathroom. Max looked at his wife and wondered if she was OK.
"Liz?"
"I'm fine Max. I was just taking the pregnancy test that I had to get because you were to chicken."
"Well, I do buy your woman things for you! And Vicki Delaney at the drug store just loves to tease me about each time!"
"Woman things? They are called tampons Max, and Vicki is an idiot."
"Still it's embarrassing."
"Well if the home test is right I won't need them for a while."
"It was positive?"
"Yes. I have to see Dr. Turner to be sure. But yes we very well could be having another child."
"Or two."
"Max, I sure as hell hope it's not another set of twins! Four kids under the age of two? That would be crazy."
"Yeah."
"Max, I am thinking of taking a few years off from work."
"For the kids?"
"Yeah. I think it would be better that way. I would tell them that I would work part time as a substitute teacher. I means I can teach things other then science. Biology and education were my majors. English was my minor."
"Liz if that is what you want to do then I support you 100%."
"Of course I will finish out this school year."
"That would be wise. Give them enough time to find your replacement."
"Yeah."
"I love you Liz don't ever forget that."
"I never stopped loving you Max. Not once in those wasted years apart."
Max kissed Liz holding her close to him.
