Chapter Two: You mess with fire you get burned
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters, except for Luke and
Sophia's baby. CBS owns the rest of them.
Sophia couldn't believe this was happening. But somewhere in
her mind she knew that It was true. All of the signs were there.
Missing her period, being nauseous in the mornings, having dizzy
spells. *I shouldn't have done that* Sophia thought *I shouldn't have
slept with Luke Cates. It only made matters worse.*
The only way to really tell would be to take a pregnancy test.
But before that, she needed to talk to Luke. To tell him what she
suspected was happening. After all, if she was pregnant he was the
father. Sophia was a virgin before her midnight tryst with Luke, and
there had been noone since him.
So that's how she had ended up here at his doorstep, waiting
for someone to answer. His mother was the first one to come to the
door. "Hello, Sophia. What can I do for you today?" Mrs. Cates looked
at Sophia and smiled. "Oh hello Mrs. Cates. By any chance is Luke home
right now?" Putting on her best smile she waited for her to answer.
"As a matter of fact, he is. I was just getting ready to go to
meet my husband. Why don't you go and see him? He's in the kitchen
getting a snack right now." Stepping outside she motions for Sophia
to go indoors. "Go ahead sweetie. I'll see you around sometime okay?"
"Sure Mrs. Cates, thank you for your help." she walks inside
and shuts the door. "Luke, are you here?" she starts walking towards
the kitchen. "In here Sophia. I'm just getting a snack." He answers
with his mouth full. She wanders into the kitchen and sees him trying
to cram a thick sandwich into his mouth. "Hi, Luke." She says trying
to conceal a giggle. Quickly he swallows the bite of food in his mouth
and wipes it. "Hi Soph. What's up?"
Suddenly sophia is very quiet. She quits smiling and starts
to get upset. "I have something to tell you Luke. and I hope that you
won't be mad at me." Walking over to her his face is full of concern.
"Soph I won't be mad at you. Tell me what's wrong."
Looking up at him she can tell that he might, just might
understand how she feels about it. "Luke, I think that I might be
pregnant." Sophia gazes into his eyes, looking for any reaction that he
might give her. "Sophia, I don't believe this." Suddenly his face
breaks into a wide grin. "I mean a baby. When did you start to suspect
something?" Luke picks her up in his arms and swings her around. Sophia
begins to giggle. "Last week. I've been missing my period for two
months or so. I began to put two and two together."
Setting her down. "Sophia, listen to me. We'll get through
this together. That I promise you. Because I love you. I've told you
that before and i'll tell you again. I love you Sophia Donner. And I
don't care what your father thinks. I'm gonna keep on loving you."
