Chapter 25
JPOV
So after the beach we headed over to a Mexican restaurant to have dinner, personally I didn't care much for Mexican food, but Beck loves it. So after eating and fighting with the kids about trying the food, we headed home. On our way home we made one more pit stop. We stopped at a SVC pharmacy to get a pregnancy test.
"Ugh, you wait here I'll go," I huffed. "I won't be long."
"Hurry," he said. Of course he wanted me to hurry the kids were sleepy and tired so they were cranky.
I headed inside and grabbed five test, just to be sure. I paid for them and walked out to the car.
"That was fast," Beck said, as he started the car.
I just smiled, "Lets go before the kids kill each other back there."
"Mommy, Mayah won't stop bugging me," Nate hollered from the back.
"That's not true he started," Mayah yelled back.
"Both of you stop it or I'm going to tell Beck to stop the car and both of you are going to walk home, in the dark, by yourselves," I threatened them.
It worked they settled down and the rest of the ride home was peaceful.
We finally got home and I quickly got the kids in the bath and got them ready for bed. I took them all into their room, they were sharing the extra room, Beck bought bunk beds for the girls and Nate got his own bed, read them a story and they fell asleep. Thank god, I was super tired.
"They're out," I said, as I closed the door.
"Good," Beck answered. "Now you can go and take those tests, so we can get this over with."
"Whatever," I walked to the bathroom and opened all the test. I took each one and placed them on the counter(my bladder was really full, so it was no problem peeing on five damn tests). Then I let Beck in and we waited the three excruciating minutes.
Finally, it was time to see what the results were. I stood up and Beck held my hand. I was really nervous and I could tell Beck was too, just by the way he ran his hands through his hair over and over again. We walked over to the sink and I began to flip each test over one by one.
"Ok, here we go," I told him.
"Yup," he simply answered.
One right after another they all read the same, positive.
"Well, there it is," I said.
"Yup, it sure is," Beck answered.
It was an awkward moment, simply because I didn't know what to say and I didn't know what Beck was thinking. He grabbed the tests and proceeded to throw them in the trash when I stopped him.
"What," he said, giving me a confused look.
"It's just that I keep one of them, like a keepsake sort of, I have one for everyone of my kids," I said.
"So, does this mean…," he started.
"Yes Beck, were keeping the baby," I said with a smile on my face.
"You sure?" he asked.
"Yes, I want this baby, I want our baby," I said. And I was being absolutely honest. I know I was having second thoughts about this baby, but I wanted this baby, just as much as I wanted my other kids. I couldn't destroy a little life that didn't ask to be conceived.
"You don't know how happy you've made me," he replied. He hugged me and kissed me.
"Yea I'll set up an appointment tomorrow to see how this little monster is doing," I told him, as I patted my belly.
"Good, I'm excited now," Beck said with a big smile on his face. "And well I know you're worried about how the kids will handle this, but hopefully they get excited to have another little brother or sister," he told me, as he placed his hand on my belly.
"I hope they do, we can tell them after I get checked out," I said.
Beck agreed and then we headed off to bed. It took me a while to fall asleep because I was excited for a new little baby and I was happy to see Beck so excited. I just hoped and prayed that the divorce and the custody issue would be resolved before I got huge and before the baby was born.

I was beaming, I was very excited to become a daddy. I was so happy that Jade decided to keep the baby and she looked really happy. I just couldn't wait to hold the baby in my arms. I was looking forward to being there for Jade every step of her pregnancy. I really just hoped the kids wouldn't be too upset and that hopefully everything with Keith would be finalized before Jade gave birth.
Two months later…
Jade is more beautiful than ever, and she keeps getting more gorgeous everyday. She is now five months pregnant and we found out last week at her check up that we're having a baby boy. We are both very excited, but I guess I am more since this little guy will be my first baby. I literally just cant wait.
Jade, the kids, and myself moved into a larger house, where each of the kids have their own rooms. I finally landed a small role in an upcoming movie and I also have a side business. Jade has found a job as a magazine editor, which allows her to work from home. Mayah and Khloe were excited when we told them about the baby, but Nate was a little hesitant about it. He really had a hard time accepting the fact that Jade is having a baby. But, when we told him it was a boy he was really excited about another boy in the family. So now he still gets kind of jealous, but both Jade and I reassure him that we still love him and that the baby is lucky to have a brother like him.
The kids also start school in a week, the girls start pre-k and Nate starts Kindergarten. Jade is literally freaking out and going way overboard with buying all the kids school supplies. I just let her be, I don't want to get in the way of a hormonal woman. Our life is very hectic, but I love it.
Jade is also very excited because the divorce process is almost over and Keith is trying really hard to get along with us. So all in all everything is going well and now all that is left is to meet my baby boy.

My life is going so well, for once. I'm five months pregnant and this pregnancy has been a breeze. I've had no morning sickness and my baby boy is growing well. I'm really excited and I get even more excited when I see how excited Beck is. He has bought all the baby furniture and assembled it all himself. It was cute to see him struggle. The kids have accepted the baby and are excited, they have even suggested baby names.
The divorce will be final in about a month and I'm very excited. Keith has been trying hard to get along with all of us and I appreciate his efforts. Although I know he probably hates the idea of me being pregnant so soon.
Custody wise the kids are with me most of the time, Keith has them every weekend and he returns them Monday night. But if he is working then they are with me until he's back in town and is done working. It was hard to be away from them, but now I'm getting use to it. And they are all starting school soon, which is very nerve wrecking for me. All in all everything is going great, were all just waiting for this little guy to get here already.

After months of going to court, Jade and I only have one more appointment before the divorce is final. I'm glad it's all over, but I hate that Jade is no longer mine. I still love her and it's going to take some time before I am completely over her. What broke my heart even more was the fact that she is pregnant. I noticed her baby bump when we were in court last month. I confronted her and sure enough she told me she was pregnant. I still can't believe how quickly she got knocked up, but I have to accept it. I'm trying hard to get along with all of them, yes even him. I want to be civil with him so that it's not awkward for the kids. I love them so much and I'm glad I get them every weekend. I pick them up Friday after school and bring them back to Jade on Monday night. I take everything day by day and try to occupy myself with work. I just can't believe how quickly my life changed, in a matter of months I became a single father.
XXXI know I haven't updated in awhile, but i've been super busy with school and whatnot...But Here's another chapter, only one more chapter to goXXX Ohh and this past friday I got to meet the cast of Victorious! it was awesome I just thought i'd share that with you guys. anyways R&R and thanks againXXX
