Zoe came down from Blythe's room and Russell approached her

"Zoe, is there something you not telling me?"

Zoe's eyes stopped blinking and her heart was beating fast

"Because Penny-Ling came to me earlier and said you had been acting strange around me so? if you want to break up and THATS the problem I understand ok?" Russell just looked at her

Zoe sighed "no Russell, but I do have something to tell you but can we go to a more private area?"

The walked over to the corner of the pet shop and Zoe said with sweat running down her face

"Soo umm Russell yeah you know that thing that happened at the park last week?"
"Yes Zoe what about it?" Russell said a suspicious look

"Well there is no other way to put this so , Russell, Your gonna be a dad"

Russell's widened "are you sure? because April fools day is in a month and this might be a prank"

"RUSSELL! I'm telling ya the truth here!" "Now I need to go tell my girlfriends about it"

Russell walked over to Sunil and Vinnie and sat down and stuck his hands in his face

"oh my god Russell you are such an idiot if you hadn't been so childish this wouldn't have happened!" Russell was thinking out loud.

Vinnie and Sunil said "Are you ok Russell?"

"No guys I am not" Russell said trying to act calm

"Well what's wrong?"

Russell couldn't hold it in any longer

"IM GONNA BE A DAD AND IM NOT READY ITS MY FAULT FOR BEING CHILDISH AND FOOLING AROUND WITH ZOE! I'm so pathetic!"

Russell started crying.

"OH MY GOD RUSSELL I'm so happy for you and I'm sure it wont be that bad!" Sunil tried to convince him that it was a good thing.

But Vinnie wasn't helping he was telling him all the bad things about having a child.

Russell was sad but excited at the same time " Well, I guess it wont be that bad to have a child"

"That's my man Russell!" Sunil cheered with excitement

Russell walked away he was going to talk to Blythe too.

"Oh, hey Russell did Zoe tell you the good news" Russell shook his head yes

"Oh you must be thrilled!" Blythe cheered

"I am excited but, I'm just not ready to have kids, I mean a dog and a hedgehog? would that even work out?"

Russell continued to cry into his hands "Oh Blythe, what am I gonna do?"

Russell had trouble dealing with it but after an hour he got used to it and walked over to zoe "Listen Zoe, I'm sorry for the way I acted earlier and I think we're gonna make a great family"

"Oh Russell I knew you would come around and your gonna make a great dad" Zoe and Russell smiled with tears of joy running down their faces

Without Zoe's permission he swooped in and kissed her like nobody was watching Zoe was in shock at first but then kissed him back.

What Zoe doesn't know is that Russell (a long time ago) got Blythe to make him a ring to fit her paw when they first started dating you know, just In case

Russell took Zoe by her paw, bent down on one knee and said "Zoe, my beautiful, If I didn't have you in my life I don't know what I would do you mean the world to me, so, will you marry me?"

Zoe was blushing "OMG YES RUSSELL, YES I WILL MARRY YOU!"

Zoe's tail was wagging like wild!

as Russell put the ring on Zoe's paw and Zoe kissed Russell again and everyone cheered for them

And even Sunil and Pepper kissed too!
