Nudge broke down into hysterical sobs. "Oh. Oh no. It's okay," murmered Max, walking over to Nudge and rubbing her back. It's ok, we can deal. You'll be a great Mom, Angel shot at Nudge telepathically. Nudge thought firmly, No, no! Why why why? Oh, why did I have to go and get myself pregnant. Shitshitshit. Angel shook her head and got up. "Guys, let's give 'em some space, okay?" she announced. Fang and Gazzy quickly got up and walked away. Angel smiled at Nudge and slipped out after them. Iggy walked over slowly. "Nudge. I am so sorry. Oh my God, it's all my fault…" Nudge sniffed and looked up at him. "No. It's not. Ig, I'm okay." Max looked at Iggy, then At Nudge, and back at Iggy. "The baby is yours?" she asked after a long pause.
"Yep."
Nudge wiped her eyes. "Ig, Max…I'm okay. I'm okay. I'm just…well, scared." Nudge stood up straight. Max sighed and squeezed her shoulder. "I'll let you guys talk, okay?" Nudge nodded. Max walked down the hall, with a backward glance. Nudge stared at Iggy. As if he could see, Iggy blushed and turned away. "Nudge. We'll have a great family. You'll be a great mom, and I'll stand right by you." He blinked and turned back towards Nudge. Nudge blinked anflung herself into Iggy's arms. "I'm not ready," she cried quietly. Iggy held Nudge. "It's okay, ssh, ssh. You are gonna be fine. You have time to get ready." Nudge relaxed against Iggy. Iggy held Nudge for a long, long, long time. Nudge finally pulled away. "We cannot forget about the flock. No can do." Iggy shook his head. "You're right." Nudge fell back into Iggy's arms. "EW!" screamed Angel, running into the kitchen. Gazzy laughed and ran after her. "Excuse me!" he laughed. Fang rolled his eyes, walking in with max, who had her sweater over her face. Total yipped and ran in. "God, man, lay off the beans." Nudge giggled into Iggy's shirt. Iggy shot Gaz a wry smile and gave him a fist bump. Nudge looked around and announced, "I want a smoothie." Total hopped up onto Angel's lap. "And the cravings begin," he sighed. Iggy flopped onto the couch. "Oh no."
