A seventeen year old Hoagie sat in his best clothes, waiting. Not just for anything but for her. Abby Lincoln. "Wud are you still doing here?" Wally asked plopping down beside Hoagie.

"What does it look like? I'm waiting."

"Now that I think about it, it makes sense. Last I heard, Kuki was helping her get ready."

"That explains it."

"That explains what?" Abby asked coming down the stairs.

Hoagie turned to look at his date for the night, "Why you're- so beautiful." he sighed as he noticed her long dark blue dress and long dark hair draped over her shoulders.

"Well, wudda you waitin' on. Go get her, Tiega."

Hoagie nervously got up while fixing his jacket and let her take his arm as they started out the door. "You know you didn't have to dress up just for me."

"Neither did you but you did anyway. Plus, we're goin to a fancy resteraunt, I wouldn't want to look out of place."

"Yeah. Oh and I got ya somethin'." Hogie said revealing a red cap. "You didn't seem quite right without it."

"Now, Hoagie. You didn't have to do that."

"I wanted to give you something to show you I need you. That was what I came up with since your lost your last one on that one mission."

"Thank you, Baby." she said placing the cap on her head. "Now, let's do this, Dad wants me home by ten."


They got to their table and sat. "So, have you had anything big happen?" he asked.

"If finding out Cree's pregnant fits the catagory, then yeah. She ain't even married to the boy. Let me tell you, Mom and Dad were pissed."

"Who was he?"

"You remember Chad."

"I'm sorry, but I could've told you that was going to happen."

"Same here, but stupid Cree wouldn't listen."

After a long pause, Hoagie spoke. "I thought I had the night planned out. Then you came down the stairs in that stunning dress. Forget my plans, I just wanna be with you tonight."

"You know what? Why don't you pay the waiter and let's go somewhere where we can be alone."

"And I know the perfect place. Waiter!"


"Hoagie, your house?"

"My parents are out of town for the weekend and Tommy's spendin' the weekend with some of his friends. I'm the only one there."

"If you say so."

They made thier way into the house, and Hoagie lead Abby to the liquor cabinet. "Jack or Jose?"

"What?"

"Jack Daniels or Jose Cuervo?"

"Jose, Baby." Hoagie just gave her a look. "What? My Daddy might be a doctor but that don't mean I refuse to drink."

A few shots later, their stumbling into Hoagie's room in the midst of a heated makeout session getting hotter by the minute.


The next morning, the Gilligans returned home with Tommy. "Tommy why don't you go wake up your brother? He'll probably be surprized to see us."

Next thing Hoagie knew, his little brother was jumping on him. "Tommy, get off me!" he exclaimed shoving his brother off of the bed; letting the sheet fall to his waist.

All the shaking also woke Abby, taking moment to figure out where she was. "Hoagie?" she said sitting up with a sheet to her chest.

"Woah, what's she doin' here?" Tommy questioned.

"Tommy." Hoagie tryed.

"Why are you two naked?"

"Tommy." Hoagie tryed again.

"Abby, Hoagie says you have nice boobs, can I see 'em?"

"Tommy." Hoagie practically yelled. "First of all, that is not a question you ask a girl. EVER."

"Why not?"

"You're most likely going to get slapped. Second of all, YOU don't need to know. Now get out of here, and don't tell Mom and Dad that Abby's here." After Tommy left, Abby slapped Hoagie on the arm. "Ouch!"

"Really? You talk about my boobs with your little brother."

"What? The boy needs to learn the terminology."

"And I don't need to be the subject when you teach him."

"Why not? You're all I can think of. From your great beauty, to great personality, to sexiness, to great beauty."

"You said that already, now get dressed 'fore your parents find us." she said getting up to gather her clothes.

"Yes dear, but how are we gonna get you outta here?"

Abby started putting her dress back on. "You distract your parents and I'll sneak out. Shouldn't be difficult."

"If you say so."


Hoagie checked to see if the coast was clear as he snuck Abby out the front door when out of nowhere: "Hoagie? Where are you going at this time a morning?" asked his mom.

"I'm meetin' some friends, bye."

"Well then."

"That was a close one."

When they were almost to her house, Abby broke the silence. "Wait. I just thought of something that may or may not save us a lecture."

"What?"

"You didn't happen to use a condom last night did ya?"

"No."

"I'll call ya tommara." Abby sighed with only one thought: 'well shit.' as she walked in the front door.

She found her father sitting at the kitchen table. "Abagail Lincoln, where have you been?"

"Where do you think, Dad? I's with Hoagie."

"Anything happen?"

"I got a weird question from Tommy, but other than that no."

"Why were you out so late?"

"We lost track of time."

"So that made you thirteen hours late. Look, you don't need to be lyin' to me. I think I figured out what ya'l were doin' by 'bout midnight. I'm willin' to let it slide as long as I don't end up with another daughter pregnant before she's married and next time, warn me if you're not comin' home for the night. BUT, no drugs, and preferibly no drinkin'. Okay?"

"Yes, Dad."

"Now get over here let your daddy give you a hug," he said waving his daughter toward him.

"Can I ask a favor though?"

"What is it?"

"I need a pregnancy test."


She stared at the test, "Shit, how am I going to tell Hoagie? How am I going to tell Dad?"

"You don't have to tell Dad." said her dad embracing her.

"Dad. What am I supposed to do?"

"You'll always have me and I'm sure Hoagie will be here for you, too."

"But what if he's not? What if he don't want anything to do with it?"

"Then we say oh well and get on with life."

"Speaking of Hoagie, I'm supposed to call him."

Hoagie: Hello?

Abby: We may have a problem.

Hoagie: What?

Abby: I'm pregnant.
