Flash forward two years from the trip to the falls. Amy and Jonah have been married for almost a year now. Life is good, they are really happy together. Amy is sitting there, not knowing what to do, or what to tell him. There were two lines.
Amy looks at it, and initially, she panics. Like she did both of the other times this occurred. But she thinks, then she was too young, or it was with her ex-husband. Both of those were good reasons to panic. But now she was with Jonah. They could do this, they already worked together in raising Bella, this baby would be both of theirs.
She thinks about all the times he's given everything he had to Bella, and she wasn't biologically his daughter. But he treated her like she was. In his mind, that little girl was his. Because that's what she deserved, a man that loved her. She was almost four now, and that seemed crazy. Emma was in college, which was even crazier.
She tucked the test away in a drawer she knew Jonah would never check and went on her merry way. She got ready for work, and kissed Jonah goodbye as he was making breakfast for Bella. She went to work and it was a normal Tuesday.
Dina sensed something was off, but she just played it off as PMS. Dina then launched into the story of being a late bloomer, but since then ovulating like a champ, and Amy wanted to get out of there as soon as possible. She was putting out the glow in the dark stars for back to school and remembers Jonah's first day here, seven years ago. She met her husband seven years ago.
He had spent hours sticking the stars on the ceiling of Cloud9, where they stayed until the tornado took the roof and ceiling off. He did it to make a moment of beauty for her. The memory makes her smile, and Cheyenne notices and smiles from where she spotted her a couple feet away.
She goes home after what seemed to be simultaneously the longest and shortest shift in her life, in time to put Bella to bed that night. She read her a cute little book her mom had given her after she had Bella, and ventures to the kitchen in search of food. She finds leftover pasta and inhales it, making Jonah laugh from the table.
"What is my inhaling method funny to you Jonah, I could eat a house if I tried," she laughs at him. Usually he was the one inhaling food.
"No, I just see how ridiculous I probably look right before you ask me if I remembered to chew. It's just funny to me." He smiles at her. She finishes eating, or inhaling rather, and sits down across from him. He grabs her hand. "How was your day today, love?"
"It was setting out back to school stuff. I put out the stars. I can't believe I've known you seven years. Seven. That's just, it's crazy to me. Bella's about half of that years old. It's crazy that she's so big."
"Yeah. I miss baby Bella a lot of the time. Makes me think. It's weird to me to even miss having a little baby in the house. I never thought I'd ever have to miss it. I never expected to help you raise a kid." He looked up at her and smiled. "But I'm glad that I did," he finished squeezing her hand.
"Yeah, it is weird to miss having a baby around. It's crazy how fast time has gone since we finally got together. Remember that party Glenn threw for us at work? He was like so happy we were together. Then again he's so happy about everything. But everyone seemed to think it had been a long time coming." She realizes she should probably bring up the fact that they'd be having a baby.
"You really miss having a baby in the house?" She was slightly worried about his response. What would she say if he said no? Would she tell him at a later date? Would she break down into tears? She really didn't know.
"Yeah, raising a baby is rewarding. It's difficult, yes, but it's extremely rewarding. I love my girls, and I'm so happy I got to help raise Bella into the little one she is.
Amy goes to the drawer, she takes the test out and sneaks it in her pocket, to give him. To tell him he was going to be a dad, like biologically.
"Why are you acting so weird Ames? You've never mentioned another baby before now, why, why now?" He looked so worried about her.
"We're having a baby Jonah," she says, smiling, and hands him the test.
