Beth's POV
I am so scared I am almost due and JJ isn't here with me...... I hope he didn't get hurt. Oh my god what if he died...... Stop! I thought to myself he is just fine, just because he didn't respond to the letter doesn't mean anything (She falls asleep) Morning I woke up by the smell of pancakes Mrs. Pryor was making so I went down. Helen: Good morning Beth Beth: morning Mrs. Pryor Helen: how are you feeling today? Beth: I feel the same as I do everyday!
Helen laughs Helen: Well your almost their (pats Beth's stomach) just wait a little longer ! Helen gives Beth some food and rushes off to work ... no one else is home Meg , Patty , and Will are all at school and Jack and Helen just went off to work. A bus which JJ is on
JJ's POV I can't wait till I get home and see everyone I missed them so much they are probably all worried about me I mean I didn't send them any mail and I didn't get any of their mail which I am sure they sent some mail ..... (About an hour later)
Well I'm here this is so great I can't wait till I see everyone....... JJ realizes the door is locked and he rings the doorbell Beth: I'm coming!!!

JJ's POV OMG ... Beth's pregnant. I have to find about all of this. Beth: JJ, are you going to come in?
(JJ comes in and she explains everything to him) JJ: Well can you explain all this to me.
Beth: Well as you can see I'm pregnant and well it's yours.
