So, I hope you're not too mad that I just showed up like this and told you."

"I don't mind, but I hate would have rather had found out sooner so I could have helped you. You should have told me." He said with his hands tucked in his front pockets. "Would you like to stay back here with me or we can go watch My Girl Friday play."

"I would like to watch them, if it's okay with you."

"I will do anything as long as it's with you." He grabbed a hold of my hand and pulled me over to the back of the crowd where it wasn't so crowded. My Girl Friday started playing, "Last Name', 'April Jean', 'Hotel Room Queen and finally, 'Fall' where Brian went on stage to sing. John wrapped his arms around my huge stomach during a slower song in the middle of an equipment change and we swayed to the beat.

It seemed like a fan had noticed us John and I because they walked up to us and started asking questions. "Is this your girlfriend John? Is this the ex that broke your heart?"

"Yes, this is my girlfriend, she always has been, and no I broke her heart in the first place, she has always had and always will have mine." John answered the fan.

The fan had looked down at him holding my stomach and asked, "Are you going to be a father?" John looked down at me; I nodded my head, letting him know I was fine with it. Soon people would find out anyways, sooner the better.

"Yes, she is due any day now." He said with a giant grin on his face. He told the fan he would be telling me people during the show and to keep it hush hush until then. She walked away as she agreed to do so.

Jess walked up to me and John, "I'm glad you guys are back together. John you might want to stay with her as much as you can. You know, in case she goes into labor." She said as he pointed to me with her beer in hand. Soon enough everyone from the band and a few others congratulated us, the show was more then half over and John had to leave to go get ready.

"You'll be watching right?"

"Of course." I smiled.

"And if you go into labor?"

"I will have a Alexis rush me to the hospital and text you once you are off the stage." I knew he wouldn't like that but I wasn't going to let him leave in the middle of his gig for me.

"Fine, but text me right away, I promise I won't leave the show any earlier then I'm supposed to." He gave me a kiss and jogged to side-stage. He was bouncing up and down until it was time for them to go on stage. I could tell he was nervous. This was probably the first show I've seen of theirs in about 8 months.

Alexis walked over to me and we linked arms. Everyone let me ahead of them because they felt bad that I wad pregnant until we got to the middle then people became pushy and I decided to stay right there. Brian walked on stage, then so did everyone else. Josh and John threw their guitars on and Stephen did the same with his bass. They all made sure the instruments were tuned correctly.

"Hello New York! How is everyone doing?" Everyone around me screamed, Alexis as well. Cameron came to join us while we watched The Summer Set play their set. Brian got the crowd to lower down enough to the point where he could talk without using the microphone. Him and the rest of the band sat on the edge with their instruments. John had the violin, Stephen and Josh both had an acoustic guitar and Jess had a mini shaker thing. They were about to play Passenger Seat, one of my favorites by them.

"Stephen, do you what is so special about today?" Josh asked.

"No, I don't. What's so special?" he asked back.

"I found a good old friend of mine is about to have a baby girl!" He smiled and laughed.

"Oh really, who the fuck is prego her eggo?"

"Alie is!" He smiled and pointed to the middle of the crowd where I was. Damn how do they find people in dark venues, that easily?

"Get out! How far is she?" Stephen asked Josh.

"She is 8 months and 1 week into the pregnancy." Josh smiled to the crowd, this was funny.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa. My girlfriend is pregnant! I didn't know about this. Is it mine? Is it mine?" John butted in and asked the others acting all excited.

"Sure is, I saw her earlier and she is huge dude. Did you guys pick a name yet?" Jess asked. At this point they were starting to shoot over each other.

"Well Alie and her best friend Alexis picked it out, it's very cute and original. My baby girl's name will be Jorja Nicole Gomez. It's funny because, tomorrow, April 8th is my birthday, wouldn't it be SICK if we had the same birthday?" John asked the crowd, and they replied with a bunch of 'awes' not exactly what I was expecting but I was glad people accepted everything that has happened.

"I just realized that baby Gomez right here, won't be the baby anymore." Jess stated. "This so exciting, I'm going to be an aunt guise!" Jess yelled to everyone, the excitement was over the roof.

"But anyways, enough about your baby girl, this song guys is about doing dirty things in a car, and well, if you don't want to have a baby, I suggest you do not do anything that this song applies." He laughed at his own 'joke' and began singing, the guitarist then joined in. During the chorus John would play the violin, he always looked so peaceful playing it, it helped me relax when I felt stressed. I started to have some pains but I got them a lot so I thought nothing of them and continued paying attention, they only had one more song left. During the last song Alexis and I decided to wait near the merch tables, when I had thought I peed myself.

I looked down at my pants which had a dark blue look to them spreading from the crotch area, and then felt them, they were defiantly wet and I wasn't picturing anything. "Alexis, I think we may have to leave."

"Unless your about to give birth, then we can wait like another hour." She responded.

"Well either I one, peed myself or two, my water broke. I've pretty sure it's the second one." I said and made loud grunting noise. The pains were coming back, even worst this time. "YUP, DIFINATLY IN LABOR HERE!" I shouted, getting her attention.

She looked at me and made a weird face, "you have no idea how gross that looks."

"I CAN'T HELP IT! CAN WE GO? LIKE NOWWW!" I said as I felt another contraction. She grabbed keys from her bag and helped me walk out the doors and into the car.

"Watch your head!" she said as I ducked into the passenger seat. "Can you change the music or something?"

"Yeah, sure. Let me just reach over my fat belly, and change it for you while I'm in labor! Can you worry about the music later?" I asked.

"Okay, okay. Fine. Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning." Alexis sang quietly.

"Do you really want to mess with a hormonal pregnant woman at 10:00 p.m. Cause I am 90% sure you WILL lose." I yelled at her over the music playing.

I decided to text John, hoping their set was over: 'Hey, sorry. Went into labor. See you at the hospital. Drive safely, love you babe.'

He wrote back pretty fast: 'Alright, be there in about 20 minutes. Don't start till I get there, hopefully it won't be too hard.' He was such the gentleman. I bet he'll make a great daddy to a pretty baby girl.

A few hours later I was in a lot of pain but I still had to wait to be10 cm. The doctor came in about an hour later and he said I was only 9 cm but we would be able to start pushing win about 30 minutes. John was by my side the whole time. "Hang in there Al, they are almost ready." He said to me as I was screaming and squeezing his hand.

"I'm sorry babe. It just hurts, a lot." I tried to say quietly while my head and back really started to hurt. The doctor came into the room with gloves on and a blue robe with his mouth covered.

"Here son, you can hold one of her legs up while she pushes." He held my right leg up with one of his hands and held my hand with the other. I screamed and pushed for about 20 minutes, the cord was wrapped around her neck. Once she was out I got to hold her for all of 3 seconds because the nurse took her from me. "It seems like there is another one, looks like you're having twins today." I was shocked, I pushed as hard as I could and 5 minutes the doctor held the baby up for me to see, "It's a boy!" he said to me. John wiped my forehead and moved my hair out of my eyes.

"You did great beautiful." And kissed my cheek.

"Do you guys have a name picked out for them?" One of the nurses asked John and I."

"Well…" John began to say.
