Chapter 21 is just a short one, but i really wanted to give you guys an update.
Chapter 21
They were both sitting in the car before the venue of Kim and Adam's wedding when Rebekah asked Erin: "What are you going to do?"
"I have to tell him, but I'm scared." Erin told her.
"I want to tell you that I'll go with you, but we both know that this is something that you have to do on your own." Rebekah said "Either way, I'm going to spoil my niece or nephew like crazy." Both of them laughed and walked inside.
"Where have you two been, it's been 2 hours since you left. People are starting to arrive." Jay said walking up to them. "Are you okay?" he added looking at them.
"We just had some things to take care of." Rebekah said giving Jay a kiss on his cheek and walking to Mouse.
"Is everything alright?" he asked with a frown on his face.
"Yes, it will be." Rebekah said with a smile on her face.
Jay was looking at Erin checking her over once again. "Are you sure you're feeling good? I mean you looked pretty sick this morning. And you have been throwing up for a few days now, are you sure you don't need to go see a doctor?" he rambled.
"Jay, calm down!" Erin yelled. "You're right, I have been throwing up for a few days, and it will stay that way for a few months..." she said, scared to actually say she was pregnant.
"Look, if you're sick, we can go see Will, maybe he can help." Jay said worriedly.
"I'm not sick, Jay." Erin told him. Jay just looked at her confused. Erin nervously took his hand and placed it on her flat belly. She saw in his eyes he was starting to understand what she was saying.
"Are you...?" Jay asked shocked. Erin just nodded scared of how he would react. Her worries faded as she saw the smile formed on his face. He pulled her close and kissed her, both oblivious to everyone else.
They had decided they weren't going to start telling people until they had seen a doctor. Erin was telling Rebekah this when Kim and the girls appeared with tequila shots.
"Okay, I'm finally married!" Kim yelled. "To celebrate, we are doing tequila shots."
Kim handed the girls a shot of tequila. Erin was looking at Rebekah silently asking what to do.
"To marriage" Kim started as everyone raised their glass. "To being happy."
Everyone brought their dinks to their lips as Kim yelled "Drink!" Rebekah grabbed Erin's shot and downed it giving her back the empty glass and quickly downing her own shot.
"Okay, another one!" as Trudy filled the glassed again with tequila. "To Rebel without a cause and Kim, she finally gave him a cause to live for." Rebekah again downed Erin's drink as well as her own.
This continued until all the girls had done a toast to Kim and Adam. Erin felt bad for Rebekah seeing as she had downed 10 shots to keep her secret safe. The girls had left dancing some more, Erin asked: "How are you feeling?"
"Like you owe me!" Rebekah said. "And like I'm going to have a killer hangover tomorrow."
"I'm sorry. I'll get you some water." Erin said.
"Don't worry about it, anything for my little niece or nephew." She quietly said. Jay was walking over to them.
"Hey, how are you feeling?" he asked Erin.
"Better than you're sister." Erin said with a laugh. Looking at Rebekah hanging at the table with her head in her hands. "Girls were doing toasting shots. Everyone does a toast, than take a shot."
"I thought you couldn't drink in your condition?" Jay said.
"I didn't, she did. To avoid people noticing me not drinking." Erin said. "I'm getting her some water."
Jay placed a hand on Rebekah's back and as she lifted her head she said: "Jay! You know I love you right? And I know you will be an amazing dad. But know that I will be the best aunt this baby had ever know." Rebekah said giggling. Despite the giggling he knew she meant what she said.
"Okay, I'm going to get Mouse to take you home. You're drunk." Jay said with a laugh as he saw Erin arriving with a bottle of water.
Jay saw Mouse and walked up to him, "Hey Mouse, would you mind taking Rebekah home? She's wasted."
Mouse looked at him and frowned. "Rebekah is drunk? How much did she have to drink?"
"The girls did tequila shots." Jay said smiling. "I'm going to take Erin home as well."
"So how long have you known, that Erin is pregnant?" Mouse asked looking at Jay
Jay just smiled: "How did you know?"
"I was looking at my girlfriend. I saw she kept drinking every alcoholic drink that was offered to Erin." Mouse explained. "Erin's not one to say no to alcohol."
"We're still keeping it on the down low, so.." Jay told him.
"You're secrets safe with me." Mouse said.
Both walked up to their women and told them they were going home.
"NOOO!" Rebekah whined. "I don't want to go home." Rebekah pouted.
They all laughed at her and Mouse took her by the hand and led her outside. Jay and Erin drove Mouse and Rebekah home. Rebekah couldn't keep her hands of off Mouse.
"Just because I'm okay with you two, doesn't mean I want to see it." Jay said looking in the rearview mirror.
"Please, that's how you got Erin pregnant in the first place." Rebekah said. Suddenly realizing the told Mouse Erin was pregnant. "I'm sorry, you weren't supposed to know." She said.
"Jay already told me." Mouse told her.
Erin looked at Jay, he just smiled. She wasn't angry she understood that Jay wanted to tell his best friend.
"Voight also said he wants you to come in this week instead of next week, so that you can get some basic training." Erin said as they arrived at Mouse and Rebekah's place.
"Take care of her, give her lots of water before she goes to sleep." Jay added.
"I will, see you tomorrow at work." Mouse said helping Rebekah out of the car and into the house.
They were sitting on the couch with a bottle of water.
"Drink up!" Mouse said.
"Jay and Erin seemed really happy about the baby." Rebekah said.
"Yes, they do." He replied.
"Jay is going to be an amazing dad. I remember when I was 5 my dad told me I was too old to be scared of monsters under the bed. So Jay would sneak into my room and check under the bed for monsters and stayed with me until I fell asleep."
She had snuggled into Mouse's side, and almost immediately fallen asleep.
"You will be a great mother one day too." Mouse whispered to her.
