They awkwardly shuffled around each other, wanted the other to begin. Finally Ruthie broke the thick silence.

"I'm sorry."

"Ugh! How did I know that is what you were going to say?! Listen, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to push a baby on you, it's just that I heard from a friend back in Texas that he had twins and… I became jealous! I know you will be the perfect mother, I as a father? That's a different story. But I didn't think about it thoroughly, you're right, its your body. I just… couldn't stop myself." Peter explained, shutting his eyes.

Ruthie took in his words and decided this would be the best time to tell him… but she just couldn't form the words. She finally muttered, "Ok. Peter, first off, don't you know that you will be an AMAZING father?! I've watched you, you're connected with children. You would be… unexplainably amazing as a parent to any children of ours! It's me that's the problem; first of all, I am only 23! How can I be a true mother at this age? If something goes wrong, it will all be on me! And…" she trailed off.

Peter looked at her with sad eyes, sat her down and hugged her. He then took her by her shoulders so she would be looking eye to eye with him.

"Listen here Ruthie Petrowski, you would NOT be responsible for anything! ANYTHING do you hear me?! I am so sorry you thought this, you thought wrong."

"But Peter, there's more." She replied, taking a glance at the soft cotton sheets. His eyes softened and questioned her, "What do you mean?"

"Well… I got very defensive because… I was tested for… cancer…" she averted his gaze.

This certainly took Peter by surprise, his gaze immediately softened and he just could not reply back.

"H-How? When?" he mustered.

"Well at my checkup the doctor suggested I go in for a checkup with all that, and yeah. My results are supposed to come in next week." Ruthie explained, staring at the floor.

Peter took this time to lift her head up with his finger and give her a simple kiss. When they broke apart they were smiling.

"Thank you for understanding" she concluded before crawling into bed and snuggling up under the covers with her husband.

Next Day:

Peter woke up before Ruthie before and took the time to shower. He had to run some errands. Before leaving he kissed his unconscious wife's head, unbeknownst to him she was conscious. She sprang up and gave him a hug. He laughed and looked at her.

They parted and she went to get dressed. She ran some errands herself. Around noon she received a call; a very special call. She heard the sweet-sounding woman talk and once she hung up, let out the loudest scream ever. She slipped all over the house in her socks and rushed to flee from the house. She picked up a few items and then high-tailed it to the younger Camden house.

"Hey Sandy! Where's Simon?" Ruthie asked in a perky manner as she stepped into the house.

"In the den with Nick and you'd probably not guess." She explained. Ruthie at her questionably but skipped down the steps. She stopped dead in her tracks when she who was sitting with her brother and nephew.

"Hey Marin" she waved and tugged her brother out of the room for a second.

"Ok I'll ask why he's here later but right now, AHH!!!!" she started off, jumping up and down, using Simon as a support.

"The tests?!" he asked, she had called him in hysterics when she was first tested. She nodded and he could tell it was good news and shouted "YES!" up to the sky.

Ruthie agreed and they stepped back in.

"Hey, ok sorry had to tell him something, what's new?" she asked quickly.

Marin hadn't really changed since the wedding, same hair style and rough image (5 o'clock shadow).

"Ruthie hey. And by the way, I noticed how you pushed Kevin into Peter and I at the wedding, you know I'm not stupid." He mused and 'mysteriously' Simon slipped out of the room.

"Well… OK! I'm tired of this, why are you back? I thought you made it clear that you didn't care for me OR us for that matter." Ruthie asked.

"Well, I was going to mention it at the wedding but couldn't, I am back because of a certain someone. Ok, you remember Sage (original character here) right? Well… well guess what? We are together, involved and all." He summed it up, popping his p's like he used to do.

"Oh, really?" she asked, smiling,

"Yes. And since now I don't look as much as a threat… I was kind of wondering if... we could be friends again." He asked.

After being quiet for a moment, Ruthie spoke up with a simple answer that caused a smile upon Martin's face. Simon then 'mysteriously' came back and the three chatted. Ruthie bid her goodbyes, kissed her nephew goodbye and left. Her next stop was her office to see if things were alright. She had a small studio to photograph things like portraits and the small things. She collected what she needed, and peaced it back to her home.

'Peter's home' she thought as she parked and walked into the door. She slid into the home and saw her husband sitting in the kitchen getting a glass.

"Hey hun." he waved and drank some water. He was at the gym for the couple of hours.

"Eww not until you've showered mister." Shed teased, and slipped away. He decided to be smart and reply with, "well then come join me my dear."

"Uh uh! Nope! But You. Me. Dinner. Bed. Tonight at 8PM" Ruthie instructed and slipped upstairs to charge her dead phone. Peter cocked his head and headed for the shower alone and defeated.

Later on:

"OK! Now were all ready!" Ruthie called from the staircase. Peter was instructed to stay in the den until things were set. He swooped in and was looking snazzy. Black dress pants with a burgundy colored dress shirt.

Ruthie was wearing a simple baby doll black dress and some makeup. She sat him down and served him the dinner, chicken with broccoli and this amazing cheese sauce she makes.

They ate, fed each other, and finished. For dessert Ruthie brought out a whipped cream covered cake. MHH! Before they headed up stairs like she promised him, she stopped him.

"OK, so here it is, I AM EXTREMLY HAPPY!" she screamed, eyes bright. He smiled just at the fact that his wife was happy. She then continued, "Dr. Hunt gave me a ring today, I AM FREE!"

"NO! THAT IS FANTASTIC!" he echoed, eyes wide. He snatched her up and carried her up to the bedroom. Ruthie had set up petals and a scented air freshener. She hated the idea of candles being able to fall and poof*! FIRE! 'Tonight?' Ruthie prayed before they started, she wanted to give him something special

Then… cough cough cough

**THE END! OF THE CHAPTER haha. Ok so you know what to do BY NOW huh? PEACE!***
