Chapter 29: Courthouse
Disclaimer: Read previous chapters.
~~~~~2 weeks later at the courthouse~~~~~
Zack and Margaret were at the courthouse waiting for Jacks to come he was late. Zack was still a little angry at Margaret for doing what she did but still he had to give her credit for her courage and all that she did. While they waited the bailiff brought out Deck, Amber, and Shawn all of them having cut and bruises on their faces thanks to Margaret. Ten minutes later Jacks came and the court session began after hours and hours of decision making, they finally chose on life imprisonment with no parole or appeal.

~~~~~Later that night~~~~~
Zack and Margaret are getting ready for bed. First Margaret got in the bed then Zack came. For the past two weeks he was mad at her and Margaret had something really important to tell him and he being mad at her made it very hard. The thing was, she was pregnant so she mustarded up the courage to tell Zack. Zack climbed into bed but his back was turned so Margaret couldn't see his face.
Margaret: Zack.
No answer.
Margaret: Zack.
Still no answer.
Margaret: Zack.
Seeing she won't give up.
Zack (in an angry tone): What?
Margaret (ticked off, getting up, grabbing her robe, and leaving): Forget it!

~~~~~Outside on the terrace~~~~~
Margaret was outside in the cold looking out at the dark sky, shivering slightly. Zack came out quietly and wrapped his arms around her waist and she put her head on his chest and signed deeply.
Zack (all of his anger disappearing and kissing the top of her head): You still haven't told me why you did what you did.
Margaret (signing and turning around to face him): Alright, I'll tell you but let's go inside first.
So both of them went inside and sat on the couch together.
Margaret: After our little "research project" I dug a little deeper and found out that Lydecker killed my real father and made it look like an accident. So I couldn't just let that go, and if I did everyday it would eat away at me till the day I died cuz I knew and didn't do anything about. Zack please, please forgive me. I can't take it if you're mad at me, please Zack forgive me.
Zack (getting closer to her and embracing her with a hug): Shhh baby it's gonna be ok I promise everything will be ok.
Margaret (pulling her head back): Does this mean you forgive me?
Zack didn't answer he just grabbed her by the arms and kissed her passionately.
Margaret (pulling back and smiling): Then I guess I'll take that as a "yes".
Zack just nodded his head and went right back on kissing her.
Margaret (pulling away again): Zack wait.
Zack (annoyance in his voice because she keeps pulling away while they are trying to make up): You know, you're making this make up very hard...so what is it.
Margaret: I'm pregnant.
Zack just smiled, picked Margaret up, and took her to their bedroom closing the door behind them.
