With every passing hour, Rizzo could feel their baby growing and growing… she didn't want to have to let her baby die because Kenickie wasn't ready to be a father; they both knew that they were ready. They were both ready. They had both grown to be responsible, mature adults. All that was required now was for Kenickie to realise that they were going to be great parents.
No matter how much he tried to persuade himself that he was going to be a terrible father, Kenickie understood that he had grown since the last pregnancy scare. They were both ready. They were going to be able to do this. Now, instead of worrying how to ask his parents for the money for an abortion, he was worrying about how to ask his parents for their support. They both loved Rizzo, Rizzo's parents both loved Kenickie.
As Rizzo paced up and down the hallway in silence, she knew what Kenickie was thinking. She knew that he was worrying about how to tell their parents… about how to ask for support.
"If they love their children, then they will always support us, right?" Rizzo broke the silence, waiting for a response.
"Of course, it's just we've never had to ask them for financial help or anything like that before," Kenickie pointed out, "I think we should go before the reunion… so we can give them time to think, time to agree, time to cool off if things get out of hand."
"Let's do it."
They were a team, ready for everything life was going to throw at them. They were determined to survive every curveball that came flying their way. They weren't going to let anything get between them.
