1 Sooooo sorry guys that I haven't updated sooner. Life has been getting in the way. I am senior this year and taking 3 AP classes and it's a lot of work so I've been busy but I will try to update as much as I can. And if you didn't notice I took off the author's note that I had up and posted another chapter a little while ago. So before you read this, go back a chapter and make sure you read it. On with the story.


"Sonny?" Sonny snapped out of her daze at the sound of Chad's voice.

"Yes," she whispered so low she didn't think Chad could hear her.

But he did.

"So how long have you known and were you going to tell me? I mean I am the father, right?"

A sudden flood of anger overtook Sonny at what he was insinuating.

"Of course you're the father, Chad! And I just found out yesterday. I was going to tell you tomorrow at dinner. I can't believe you think I would go sleeping around Chad. You're an asshole."

Chad sighed and sat down in the chair beside Sonny's hospital bed. "I'm sorry. It's just such a shock. I didn't expect this and I realize you didn't either and I'm sorry I snapped at you."

"Thanks."

They sat together in an awkward silence. Five minutes later Connie walked back into the room.

"Okay, Sonny, you're all checked out and ready to- oh, hey Chad," she smiled.

'Wow she snapped back fast,' thought Sonny.

She turned to Sonny. "You ready to go sweetheart? I know you must be tired."

Sonny looked at Chad and then smiled to her mother. "Yes mom, I'm ready to go. I want to go sleep in my comfy bed and live in denial until tomorrow."

Connie started for Sonny at the same time that Chad did. She looked at Chad and stopped, but he continued.

'Why is Chad acting so concerned with Sonny all of a sudden. Wait could he be the? No Sonny hates him, but what other explanation do I have for him being so concerned?'

All this ran through Connie's mind. She was thinking so deeply she almost missed Chad sweep some of Sonny's hair behind her ear. She also almost missed him press his lips to her forehead, and pause just long enough to know the answer the question to internal monologue in her head. She just had to hear it come from her daughter's mouth.

"Sonny? Is...Is Chad the, uh, the babies father?"

She watched her daughter's face turn from peaceful to terrified to determined.

"Yes mom, Chad my daughter's father."


okay. I'm going to try and update when I can but I can't make any promises. All I can say is please review.
