And Baby Makes Five (2?)

The Next Morning (Saturday)…

Sharpay was rudely awakened early that morning by another wave of nausea. She groaned as she made her way to the bathroom. She was fine last evening after Troy saw her in the bathroom and all through the night, giving her the first real sleep she had gotten in what seemed like a month. What had started off as dizziness and the occasional migraine had turned into World War III in her stomach. As she emptied the contents of her stomach into the porcelain bowl, she couldn't help but to wonder…and worry as to what was going on with her. After she had finished rinsing her face and mouth out, she made her way back into the room, only to see Troy who was now awake. She gave him a weak smile, "Morning."

He just looked at her for a moment. She was pale and looked awful; not that he would say that to her. "Feeling sick again," he said as he rubbed her back.

"Yeah," she said as she sat down on the bed. "I don't know what's wrong with me, Troy. I've been feeling like this for what seems like forever," she said as she took the thermometer that was conveniently placed on her nightstand and took her temperature. "Well, I don't have a fever," she said as she read 98.2 on the thermometer.

He thought for a moment, "Wait a minute, how long did you say you have been feeling like this?"

She shrugged, "I don't know, a month maybe? Why," she asked, looking up at him.

"Do you think it's possible that you could be…"

"No. No way," she said, cutting him off, knowing what he was going to say. "Remember the last time we tried? And the time before that," she said, recalling both times that had turned out to be false alarms.

"Maybe we should buy a test, just in case, you know? I mean, weirder things have happened," he said.

"Oh, so the possibility of me being pregnant is weird now," she snapped.

"No, that's not what I meant, I'm sorry," he said as he brought her close to him. As soon as he did, however, she pulled away and rushed back to the bathroom. Troy followed her this time and stood behind her rubbing her back and kept her hair out of her face.

When she was finished she looked up at him, "Maybe a test wouldn't be the worst thing in the world," she said weakly.

"Jeez Troy, I feel like a guilty teenage girl who just knows that her boyfriend got her pregnant," Sharpay said as the two walked through the aisle of the pharmacy, searching for the pregnancy tests.

"Yeah but people would automatically dismiss that, considering the fact that we have two children with us; one of whom that seems to have wandered off," he said as he realized that Larissa was no longer with them. "Uh oh," he said as he ran off to look for her.

Sharpay chuckled and looked at Ana, "Your daddy is silly, you know that?"

Ana smiled, "Daddy love mommy," she said innocently, causing Sharpay to nearly cry.

Troy returned a few moments later with a guilty looking Larissa. "I found her next to the automatic door," he said, out of breath.

Sharpay's tearful moment suddenly turned into anger. "Larissa, you know you cannot wander away like that! It scares mommy and daddy," she said a little too harshly to her.

Larissa looked down at her feet, "I'm sorry, mommy," she said with tears in her eyes.

Sharpay had just realized what she said, "Oh honey, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to yell at you," she said as she hugged her.

Troy, seeing about three different emotions in his wife at once, knew that there was definitely a chance that she was pregnant. "So," he said, picking Larissa up, "I think we should buy about two, maybe three, or even four," he said.

"Four! Are you nuts, Troy," Sharpay gasped.

"No, what I'm saying is buy for different tests that are all different brands, you know since each brand has its own way of telling you whether you are or not," he said, not wanting to say the word 'pregnant' in front the girls; at least not until they knew for sure.

She nodded, "Okay, I guess we can do that," she said calmly.

"Mommy what's this," Larissa asked, picking up a box which contained an item for safe sex (okay, condoms…there, happy? LOL).

Troy's eyes went wide, "Um nothing you need to worry about for many, many, many years to come," he said as he set the box back on the shelf.

Larissa looked puzzled but then just shrugged, not really caring.

Troy looked at Sharpay, who was on the verge of cracking up. She shook her head as they walked to the cashier to purchase the pregnancy tests.

"Well they all have one thing in common," Troy said, looking at the box for each test, "They all say to wait five minutes." He looked at Sharpay.

"Joy," she said sarcastically as she took each test and set the timer. "Now we wait," she said as the two walked into their room. The girls were in the upstairs den/guestroom watching a movie so that Troy and Sharpay wouldn't have to go far in case one of the girls needed them.

"Yes, now we wait," he said as he sat down on the bed. After about a minute of complete silence, Troy decided to break it, not able to take it any longer. "So Larissa's doing pretty well with writing her name," he said, hoping to make some form of small talk while they waited.

"Yeah," Sharpay said distantly, not really listening to what Troy had just said. She just wanted the timer to go off. "So how long has it been," she asked.

He sighed, "Two minutes and counting," he said, looking at his watch.

"Ugh, this is going to take forever," Sharpay said as she fell back on the bed and closed her eyes. Another bizarre silence filled the room as the two waited for the timer to go off.

DING!

Sharpay bolted upright, "Now or never," she said, squeezing Troy's hand.

"Yep," he said, trying not to show the pain his hand was currently in.

They walked into the bathroom and took each test out and laid them side by side. Each had the same answer: positive.

"Troy," Sharpay said, emotion rising in her voice, "I think we're…" She covered her mouth with her hand as a few tears fell from her eyes.

He smiled and hugged her, "I think so too," he said as he kissed her. "We should call the doctor and schedule an appointment for as soon as possible," he said after he broke their kiss.

She nodded, "Yeah, good idea," she said, smiling from ear to ear. "I wonder how far along I am. I mean, just because I've had symptoms for a month doesn't mean I'm only 4 weeks, does it?"

"No, remember the last time we found out that you were already 9 weeks along," he said.

"Yeah," she said, remembering how that pregnancy ended in disaster.

Troy saw the look on her face and pulled her close, "Hey, we are not going to let that happen this time, okay," he said gently.

"We can't keep it from happening," she said, pulling away from him as she walked into the bedroom.

He followed her, "Yeah but your body has had a lot of time to heal, so maybe there's a chance," he said, just as unsure as she was.

She shrugged, "I guess."

"One thing is for sure," he said, sitting beside her.

"What's that?"

"You need to stay as positive as possible. This little guy…or girl," he said, patting her stomach, "Is going to need all the positive energy you have," he said with a smile.

She smiled back at him, "Good point. Since when did you become Dr. Phil," she asked.

"Ha, ha very funny," he said as he kissed her again, this time deeper and with more passion.

"Well, you definitely are pregnant," Dr. Jacobs, Sharpay's OB said.

Sharpay smiled at Troy. They had managed to get an appointment for Monday at 4:00 and had Ryan and Gabi pick the kids up from school.

"So um, how far along am I," Sharpay asked.

"Judging by this," Dr. Jacobs said, "I'd say you're about 11 weeks along."

Troy looked puzzled, "Wait, so are you saying that she is one week away from being three months pregnant?"

Dr. Jacobs nodded, "Yep, hard to believe, I know, but sometimes morning sickness or any other symptom for that matter doesn't show up until the second month." She motioned for Sharpay to lie down. "Now you know this is going to be cold," she said as she put the jelly on Sharpay's stomach and started the ultrasound.

Sharpay gasped a little when she put the jelly on, but was stopped by a very distinct thumping sound. She smiled and looked at Troy. "That's our…Troy, that's the…"

"Yeah," he said, barely audible as he looked at the screen. He had to wipe his eyes as well, still in disbelief that his wife was pregnant. "Um I know this is going to sound horrible, but where is the…"

"Right here," the doctor said, pointing out a moving object on the screen that was about the size of a fist. "And it doesn't sound horrible," she said as she checked all the vitals on the fetus. "I've had patients who can't see their baby when they are 7 months pregnant," she said which seemed to reassure Troy.

"Do you think I'll make it to 7 months," Sharpay asked with a worried look on her face.

She looked at Sharpay, "I can't guarantee anything at this point," she said solemnly, "But as long as you take care of yourself, which means no stress whatsoever, then I'd say you have about a 65 chance of making it that far, even further for that matter."

Sharpay nodded. 65 wasn't a very big number. The next four months were going to be tough. "Okay," she said quietly.

"Is there any way to make that number, you know, go up," Troy asked.

"At the moment, no," the doctor said. "Like I said earlier, I can't guarantee anything at this point, Sharpay. I'm sorry."

The two nodded as the doctor cleaned off Sharpay's stomach and helped her to sit up. "Thank you very much," Sharpay said, wiping a few tears from her eyes.

"My pleasure, and if you have any concerns at all, and I mean any concerns, please feel free to call me on my cell or even at home," she said as she wrote a phone number down on a piece of paper.

Troy put the paper into his wallet. "Thanks, and I'm sure we will," he said as he shook her hand.

"You're welcome and congratulations, guys. You're going to have a baby," she said with a smile as she walked out of the room so Sharpay could change back into her clothes.

Sharpay took a deep breath, "Wow," she said as she slowly got down from the table. "I can't believe it," she said with a small smile.

"Me neither," Troy said as he leaned in to kiss her.

"Oh my gosh!" Sharpay said, ruining any hope Troy had of kissing her.

"What's wrong, are you in pain? Do we need to get the doctor back in here," he asked as he went to open the door.

"No silly," she said, "I meant that since we're three months pregnant, it's technically safe to tell our family and friends," she said with a grin on her face.

He smiled, "It sure is."

"Mommy and daddy have something to tell you," Troy said to the girls after they got home and were standing in the kitchen.

"What is it," Larissa asked, sounding excited.

"Well," Sharpay said slowly, "Mommy is going to have a baby," she said. She looked at the girls' faces, which had opened wide. The two almost looked like the drama masks you see when you go to the theatre. Ana was smiling and Larissa simply shocked and frowning.

Troy saw this as well. "So, what do you think," he asked Ana.

"Mommy, baby?" Ana asked, giving the sign for 'baby.'

"That's right, sweetie, mommy is going to have a baby," Sharpay said as she also gave the sign for 'baby.'

Ana smiled and hugged Sharpay, not completely understanding what her mom had just said, but getting the general gist.

Larissa, on the other hand, understood completely what Sharpay meant and did not look at all happy. "A baby," she said flatly.

"Yep, what do you think, sweetie," Troy asked as he put an arm around Sharpay.

"You have us," Larissa said, indicating herself and Ana.

"Well, yes we do have you and we couldn't be happier, but wouldn't you like to be a big sister…again," Sharpay said.

"No," Larissa said as she ran up to her room and slammed the door.

The two looked at each other and then at Ana who shook her head, "Giwls," she said.

Sharpay chuckled as Troy picked Ana up, "I know exactly what you mean," he said.

"Knock, knock," Sharpay said as she cracked the door to Larissa and Ana's room open. "Can I come in," she asked.

"No," Larissa said from her bed, her face in her pillow.

Sharpay walked into the room and sat on the foot of Larissa's bed and rubbed her back. "Honey, I know that you think that since we're having a baby that we aren't going to love you anymore, but that just isn't the case," Sharpay said.

Larissa looked up at Sharpay. "You'll still love me and Ana," she asked, wiping her face that was wet from the tears that were falling down it.

"Of course we will," Sharpay said as she moved closer to Larissa. "Come here." Larissa inched closer to Sharpay who put her arms around her. "You're my big girl," Sharpay said as she hugged her.

"Can I help with the baby," Larissa asked as she looked at Sharpay.

She smiled, "I was hoping that you would."

Larissa smiled, "Really?"

"Really," she said, kissing her head. "Oh I love you and Ana so much, and so does daddy, you know that, right?"

Larissa nodded, "Yes, mommy."

"Good," Troy said from the doorway, "Because I was just going to tell you the same thing." He opened his arms and hugged Larissa who had run to him. He looked up at Sharpay and smiled.

"Oh boy," Sharpay said.

"What? Do we need to call the doctor," Troy asked, fumbling for his wallet.

"No, we need to call the family and our friends…we need to tell them," she said with a nervous smile.

And I shall leave you with that…for now anyway. So, what is the reaction going to be? And is Sharpay going to be able to carry this baby for 6 more months? Opinions and reviews on what you think are greatly appreciated!
