"Goodnight." Marco kissed Eloise's forehead.
Marco walked into his bedroom and laid down.
"It's going to be okay." He whispered into Dylan's ear.
"I'm sorry." Dylan whispered.
Dylan woke up in the middle of the night. He couldn't sleep, and he needed to talk to someone. He couldn't talk to Marco, he just couldn't. He picked up the phone and dialed his sister's number.
"Paige, can we take a walk?"
"Yea, give me five minutes."
Paige drove over to Dylan's apartment, he sounded upset on the phone. When she got there, Dylan told her everything.
"Dylan...why didn't you tell me?"
"I don't know, I didn't tell anyone, I just...can we walk?"
They walked over to the cemetary and sat down by Ellie's headstone.
"Ellie, look what we've got ourselves into. We were just two drunk teenagers, didn't think anything of it. And now, my life's falling apart. WHY'D YOU HAVE TO GO!" Dylan cried. "Oh Ellie, what does this all mean."
"C'mon Dyl, let's go."
Dylan shook off the tears and walked into the apartment. He was tired and upset, and still he couldn't sleep. He just kept thinking about that day, the day he found out.
FLASHBACK "Dylan, I'm pregnant." Ellie cried.
"Because of, Paige's party??"
Ellie nodded solemnly.
"This can't happen, I'm gay, and 19, and you're, you're straight and only 17." Dylan paced.
"Dylan, we were drunk, when people are under the influence...things happen."
"You're suprisingly calm about all this."
"Well, do you think I should-you know.." Ellie started.
"Get an abortion--NO WAY! We're going to raise this child against all odds, it's not this kid's fault it's being born." Dylan protested.
"Ok." Ellie said embracing Dylan.

"What's wrong?" Marco woke up.
"Just thinking."
"It's going to be okay." Marco kissed him.
In the middle of kissing him, Marco heard a noise that sounded like a child stirring. He broke away from the kiss to discover Eloise standing in the doorway.
"Hi sweetie." Dylan blushed.
"What's up?" Eloise sounded very awake.
"Nothing. How come you're awake?" Marco asked.
"I wanna go to school."
"Ok, we'll sign you up first thing in the morning, but school doesn't start until the fall, is that okay?" Dylan asked her.
"Yup, I just wanna go to school." She went back into her room.
"School, she doesn't even have a technical last name." Marco fumed.
"Call that sparrow guy, he's a lawyer, right, he'll solve it all."
"Yea, but we're not married, and we're both men. What will she tell her teachers, I have two Daddies and no mommy. What'll we say her last name is...Del Rossi-Nash-Michalchuk?"
"We'll think of something." Dylan reassured her.
Marco walked into his bedroom and laid down.
"It's going to be okay." He whispered into Dylan's ear.
