Unexpected

Chapter 3 - Big Decisions

"Do we keep the baby?" She repeated

"Yeah, I'm okay weather you want to give the baby to an adoption agency or if you want to keep it... I just wanna make you happy" He said softly

"Umm... I don't know, maybe I should sleep on it, it is a big decision after all" she said

"Yeah, you should, it is a pretty big decision. Do you want me to let you rest or do you want me to stay with you for a while?" He said

"Can you stay with me till I fall asleep?"

"No problem Rae, sweet dreams"

"Night Gar, I love you"

"Love you too Rae"

About 10 minutes later, Raven was asleep and Garfield gave Raven a kiss on her forhead before he left for the common room to see Cyborg. Once he reached the common room, Cy was sitting on the couch as usual, playing Rally Racers.

"You know it's not good for you too play that game everysingle day straight Cy..."

3 seconds passed when all of a sudden, laughter burst out between the two friends.

"So hows Raven? Is she awake yet?" He asked curisoly

"She's fine. She woke up, but she said her head hurts a little though"

"Did you tell her that you knew she was pregnant?"

"yeah I did, it was a lot to take in for her. Before all this happened, she said that she wasn't sure if she was or not"

"So everything's good with you guys then?"

"Everything's great" He said with a smile "I asked Raven if she wanted to keep the baby or not"

"You did? What did she say?"

"She said that she would sleep on it because it's pretty much a huge decision"

"A very wise decision"

"Yup, now hand me the other controler... I'm about to kick your metal ass at this game"

"Try me"

As time grew on, it was about 1:00am when both team mates were getting tired. They decided to call it a truce and go to bed. The two friends were walking down the hallway while talking.

"When is Starfire and Robin getting back from the convention again?" Asked Garfield with a yawn

"Uhh... I think its in another week or two" Said Cy with a sheepish expression

"Oh, I'm guessing we'll have to tell them whats been going on...You know... Raven's accident and the fact that shes pregnant"

"Yup... There gonna find out sooner or later Gar, you can't exactly hide a baby bump"

"Very true"

"So Gar, just between me and you... What do you want to do? Do you wanna keep your baby or give it away?"

"Personally, I want to keep it"

"What do you think Raven will say?"

"I dunno, but I'm hoping she'll say she wants to keep the baby"

"Well... I wish the both of you luck" Said Cyborg, placing a hand on Garfields shoulder

"Thanks" He said with a sheepish smile

As the two came across Cyborg's room first, they said their goodnights and then parted, leaving Garfiled to walk to his room. One he got in his room, he slipped into an old T-shirt and left his boxers on and crawled into his single bunk bed and drifted into sleep quickly.

The next morning, Garfield woke up soundly, he just had a dream about himself and Raven. Although in his dream, Ravens bump was actually a bump. He got up, got dressed and then headed out his room to the kitchen to get himself a tofu breakfast while also planning to bring Raven some tea. After his first meal of the day, he made a cup of Raven's favourite kind of herbal tea and was walking down to the medical bay. Once at the doors, he pushed them open quietly and walked in, setting the tea on a table next to the bed Raven was laying on. He called Raven's name softly a few times to get her to wake up and was successful.

"Morning Rae"

"Good morning Gar"

"How are you feeling?"

"Better, thanks"

"I made you a cup of your favourite herbal tea" He said with a warm smile

"You did? Thank you" She said with a small smile

Raven raised herself from the bed slowely and winced at the pain comming from her head.

"Just take it easy, okay?"

"Okay"

She took the cup of tea and began to drink it and put it back on the near by table beside her bed.

"So... Have you thought about weather to keep the baby or not?"

"Sort of, I'm mostly leanning towards keeping it... But the thing is, I'm scared Gar... I'm really scared" She said as she started to cry

"Please don't cry Raven, I'm scared too... But you'll never know what will happen... I know you can do this" He said while rubbing her back

"You really think I can?"

"No, I know you can, and I will always be by your side, I won't go anywhere Rae, I promise you that"

"You really won't leave me? No matter what?"

"No matter what, I'll always be by your side... Both of your side" He said while putting a hand on her stomach

Raven hugged Garfield tightly and then kissed him. Garfield told Raven that Cyborg said she could leave the medical bay now, and continue to sleep in her own room, so Garfield helped her out of the medical bed and went to her room with her so that she can change out of her clothes and have a shower. Raven told Garfield that he was welcome to stay in her room and wait for her, so he did. Once she was out of the shower and into some fresh clothes, the couple walked down the long hallway and talked quietly about the pregnancy and other details.

"So... What hospital do you want to go from delivery?" Asked Garfield

"Well... I was actually thinking Cyborg should maybe deliver our baby, it prevents the media from getting snap shots of us and a scandal getting about the city"

"Cy? Deliver our baby? That thought completely skipped my mind... But yeah, I think it's a good idea"

"Thats good, I was hoping you'd say that"

"So, how long do you think it would be before we'll see an actual bump?"

"I think a few weeks... maybe a month" She said, placing a hand over her stomach

"Sweet" He said with a smile

As the two walked into the common room, they seen Cyborg, yet again, playing Rally Racers. As soon as he saw Raven and Garfield, he paused his game and greeted the couple.

"So... Are you guys keeping or giving away your baby?"

The titan couple looked at eachother and held hands.

"We're keeping it" They both said simultaniously

"That's great!" He said as he congratulated the two "So, have you thought of which hospital you're going to for the delivery?"

"Umm... Well... We thought... If it be okay with you... If maybe... You could deliver our baby?" said Garfield shyly

"Really... You want ME to deliver your baby?" He asked, shocked.

"We're certain" Said Raven with a smile

"Well, alright then!" He said very happily
