Hello strangers. I felt really bad for letting this story just go to waste so I decided to finish. I hope you like the end.
Sadie looked angry, but the tears streaming down her face gave her away. She sat down in the middle of the isle and put her face in her hands. Jude walked over to sit down next to her.
"I don't know what to do," she cried. "I'm not ready to be a mom but I can't give it up."
"Sadie, you will be a wonderful mom. Look at all those days you took care of me while mom and dad were gone. It will all be fine."
Kwest came over and helped Sadie off the floor. Jude hugged her sister then went to Tommy's side.
"Sorry Kwest, I know you wanted to tell everybody together. I guess my sister is just too damn smart."
Sadie smiled at Jude, and then looked to her parents. "Well, what do you think? I'm having a baby."
"We think its great honey. A little unexpected, but that's how these things usually work out. Do you have any idea when it is due?" Stuart asked.
"The end of July. We don't have an exact date yet. So you're not mad."
"No sweetie. How could we be mad? Well, I guess were celebrating more than thanksgiving tonight. Let's get some sparkling cider."
After the grocery store, the two car loads of people headed back to Tommy's to start dinner. It turned out to be the best thanksgiving any of them ever had, and it lasted well after midnight. When Sadie and Kwest excused themselves to feed Onyx, the rest of the band and Kat and Jaime did so as well, all for different reasons. Eventually, Jude's mom and dad went home as well, leaving Tommy and Jude alone for the first time all day.
"So what do you think about kids?" Tommy asked Jude.
"I love them and really want to have a few of my own. Why do you ask?"
"What do you say we go try to have a baby? Are you ready to have a child yet?" he asked her, watching her face for sign of panic.
"No thought required. Let's do it."
Tommy and Jude went upstairs and shut the door.
Midnight, January 1st.
"Happy new year's baby, I love you."
"I love you too Tommy and I have a surprise for you."
"Do you? And what can that possibly be? I have everything I want right in front of me."
"I'm pregnant, Tommy. I went to the doctor while you were playing pool with Kwest."
Tommy smiled and asked why she didn't tell him she had an appointment.
"I set up the pool date with you and Kwest so I could surprise you tonight. Surprise!"
Tommy laughed and kissed Jude. "Now I have everything I want. We should call Sadie, and your parents, and G-Major, and…"
"Whoa, slow down. We have all day to tell them. Let's celebrate."
