A couple weeks later, it was Saturday morning, Beck sat in his car waiting for Jade. He watched her as she walked outside her house, getting into his car.
Beck: Hey babe, good morning.
Jade: Hey.
Beck leaned in kissing Jade. He started his car driving away from her home.
Beck: How are you feeling today?
Jade: My back is killing me.
Beck: Did you wake up with it hurting?
Jade: Yeah.
Beck: Maybe you slept wrong.
Jade: It's really bothering me. I need a massage or something.
Beck: Want to go get a massage?
Jade: Yeah, I would love to get a massage.
Beck: We can go to a spa if you want.
Jade: No, I was just kidding. Spas are expensive.
Beck: Nothing is too expensive for you.
Jade: I'm not gonna let you pay for me to get rubbed down.
Beck: You said your back hurts, I want you to be comfortable.
Jade: I'll be fine, don't worry.
Beck: Where is that one place, where you usually get your nails done?
Jade and Beck arrived at a Salon and Day Spa. The two walked in and over to the front desk.
Beck: How much for a couples massage?
Jade: Beck, really, we don't need to do this.
Beck: It's something we can do together.
Jade: Let me pay for half.
Beck: No, that's okay, I got it. My treat.
Jade smiled and gave Beck a quick kiss.
Jade: Thanks.
Beck: You're welcome, anything for you.
After getting their massages the couple sat outside at a restaurant eating. Beck was eating a burger and fries, Jade was eating cut pineapple.
Beck: Can I ask you a question?
Jade: You just did.
Beck: When will you be ready to tell our parents?
Jade sighed pushing her plate aside.
Beck: We can't hide this from them forever.
Jade: I know.
Beck: We need to tell them.
Jade: We can't.
Beck: Jade, it's been two weeks, you need to see a doctor.
Jade: No I don't, I'm fine.
Beck: We don't know how to deal with a pregnancy, we need help.
Jade: I can't see a doctor without using my insurance.
Beck: This is why you have to tell your parents.
Jade: No.
Beck: (sighs) I didn't want to say this but, you're starting to become obvious.
Jade: What do you mean obvious?
Beck: Your stomach, it's kind of distending. Is that normal? So early?
Jade looked down at her stomach and frowned, she looked up at Beck with teary eyes.
Jade: You're calling me fat?
Beck: What? No, I'm not calling you fat.
Jade was now in tears upset at Beck.
Jade: You just said it, you said I'm distending.
Beck: I didn't mean to hurt your feelings, I just meant that-
Beck sighed at Jade's crying.
Beck: Okay, shh. I'm sorry.
Jade: Don't shush me!
Beck leaned back in his seat surprised.
Jade: I'm not fat! You need to get your eyes checked because I look perfectly fine.
Beck: You're right Jade, you do. I don't know what I was thinking.
Jade: Moron.
Jade stood up from the table grabbing her things and walked away.
Beck: What the hell was that?
Jade: Let's go, Beck!
After eating lunch, Jade and Beck drove to his house. They both stood out of the car confused.
Beck: Is that Jenny's car?
Jade: What is she doing here?
Jade and Beck walked into the house instead of going to Beck's RV. The two walked into the living room and stopped, disgusted.
Jade: I think I'm gonna be sick.
Jenny sat on the couch making out with Beck's brother, Ben. Beck dramatically cleared his throat, Jenny and Ben pulled apart looking at them.
Jade: Jenny, what are you doing?
Jenny: Uh, I can explain.
Ben: Do you mind? Give us some privacy.
Beck: This is the living room, there is no privacy.
Ben: If I'm not mistaking, you don't live in this house. You live in the backyard.
Jade: Jenny, what do you see in this freak?
Ben: I've been asking Beck that same question for almost three years now.
Jade raised her arm to hit Ben, Beck grabbed it putting it down to her side.
Beck: Shut up Ben.
Ben: Whatever. I need a beer.
Ben stood up from the couch walking away to the kitchen. Jade and Beck stood looking at Jenny, waiting for her to explain herself.
Jenny: Hey guys, I didn't know you hang out here.
Jade: I thought I told you to stay away from him.
Jenny: He called me earlier and asked me to come over.
Beck: He had another girl over yesterday.
Jenny: I'm not trying to make a relationship with him, just having fun.
Jenny stood up from the couch and hugged Jade.
Jenny: How are you feeling today?
Jade: I was doing fine until five minutes ago.
Jenny smiled and patted Jade's stomach.
Jenny: And how is Beck jr. doing today?
Jade: Stop. There is nothing to feel.
Jade moved Jenny's hand away.
Jenny: Yes there is, your starting to show.
Beck became nervous, he stood behind Jade, making gestures to Jenny.
Jenny: Why are you starting to show so early? This isn't normal.
Beck desperately waved his arms for Jenny to stop talking, she noticed.
Jenny: What Beck? I don't understand.
Jade turned around, Beck stopped smiling innocently at her.
Beck: Nothing. There was a fly.
Jade: I'm not showing, I'm just full. I just ate, duh.
Jenny: When are you gonna tell your parents about Beck jr?
Ben was walking back to the living room and stopped confused.
Jade: Stop calling it Beck jr.
Jenny: Why? I like that name.
Beck: So do I.
Jade: We don't even know if it's a boy or a girl.
Beck: This is why we have to tell our parents, you need to see a doctor.
Jade: It's not as easy as you think it would be.
Jenny: I think you should tell them before it's too late.
Jade: (sighs) I don't want to talk about this right now.
Beck: I'll stand with you when you tell your parents.
Jenny: Me too.
Jade and Beck looked at Jenny confused.
Jenny: It's my baby too, I'm the god mother.
Beck: (chuckles) You guys want to watch a movie or something?
Jenny: Sure.
Jade: Whatever.
The girls followed Beck out the living room leaving the house to go to his RV. Ben walked into the living room smiling.

Later that evening, Beck sat with his family at the dining room table eating dinner.
Joe: Your mother and I were talking, we're thinking about going up to Canada in a few weeks.
Beck: We're going to Canada?
Joe: Only your mother and I.
Carolyn: You boys will have the house to yourselves for a week.
Joe: Can we trust you?
Ben: Dad, I'm twenty-two.
Joe: And yet, you still worry me.
Beck: I think we will be fine here for a week without you.
Carolyn: That's great to know.
The family continued eating not saying a word. Ben was eyeing Beck. He took a sip of his drink before speaking.
Ben: Hey Beck, remember when you ratted me out because I was smoking in the house?
Beck: I didn't rat you out, my asked who was smoking and I told her I don't smoke.
Ben: Remember when I said I'd get you back?
Beck: That was two months ago. Get over it.
Ben turned to his parents.
Ben: Jade's pregnant.
Beck choked on his food, coughing.
Carolyn: What?
Joe: Excuse me?
Ben: Beck's girlfriend, Jade. She's pregnant.
Beck: He's lying.
Ben: I'm not lying. I heard you talking about it.
Joe: Beck, is this true?
Ben: He and Jade were planning on moving far away to secretly raise the baby.
Beck: That's not true, we never said anything about moving away.
Ben: So you admit she's pregnant?
Carolyn: Beckett?
Joe: Son?
Beck looked from his mother to his father.
Beck: I, we-
Beck sighed, he stood up from the table.
Beck: Thanks Ben. I wanted to tell them myself.
Beck walked away out the dining room. He slammed the door shut on his way out of the house.
Ben: That'll teach him to not open his mouth.
Carolyn: I can't believe this right now.
Carolyn stood up from the table.
Carolyn: I am going to give that boy a piece of my mind.
Joe: Carolyn, no.
Carolyn: How can he get a girl pregnant? This is the dumbest thing a child of mine has ever done.
Joe: I'll go talk to him, you calm down.
Joe stood up from the table and walked after Beck. Carolyn stood taking deep breaths to calm herself.
Ben: Does this mean I'm the favorite now?
