Seth drove Summer's car to the hospital.
"Hey Summer." He said waiting until Summer looked at her. "Why didn't we just go to our normal hospital and not one like 50 miles away?"
"Think Cohen. I went here when no one knew about Cohen Jr. I didn't want anyone to find out. Now that they do, I guess we could switch, but I really like the doctor."
"Fine. So what are we going to do there today?"
"I don't really know. I guess we'll find out.:"
The rest of the ride to the hospital was a peaceful silence. Seth could tell Summer was nervous and quite frankly he was too. He admired how she kept her cool. Everything that had happened without him and with him were mind-blowing to him. For one she was having his baby. Secondly, they were back together and for the third he didn't give a damn about it.
He pulled into a parking slot and turned off the engine. Seth sat back and looked at Summer.
"Hi." She said innocently, starting to take off her seatbelt. Seth did the same and they walked to the entrance. Summer knew what to do and he just watched. She walked up to the front desk and told the lady a couple of things and then sat down next to him.
"Now what do we do?" Seth asked, fidgeting with his hands.
"We wait."
"For what?"
"Someone to call our names."
"Summer Roberts." Seth replied. He got up. "Ready."
"COHEN. Sit down. That wasn't funny."
"Ohh. Come on. That was funny."
"Yeah. You know what's even funnier?"
He shrugged.
"When my fist slams into your face and you can't see out of your eyes anymore."
"Got it. Rage Blackouts."
The next ten minutes went by slowly and Seth began looking at Parenting magazines. He was engulfed in an article, "Telling the in-laws." and it was actually quite good.
"Summer Roberts." A deep voice called into the crowd.
Seth jumped and was kind of embarrassed to be reading the baby magazine.
"Cohen. Come on." Summer said, following the voice. Seth hopped up and followed.
"You can bring the magazine if you like." The man said, opening a door for them to go through. Seth shook his head, his face turning red.
"Ok, Summer. You can change into this and your doctor will be here in a little bit." He announced, giving her an outfit that Summer really didn't want to put on. She had an idea of what they were going to do and she was more than a little bit afraid.
Now they were left alone, but Summer just sat on the table not moving to go and change into her outfit.
"Hey Summer. Aren't you going to change?" Seth asked. He too was freaked out by this.
"Maybe. I don't know, I'm scared. Do you know what they're going to do to me on that table?" Seth shook his head.
"I don't know either but I think they're going to look you know where."
"No I don't. where?" Seth asked.
"Between my legs." The first time Summer came she didn't even have to get undressed; all she did was have blood drawn. And that was it.
Now she wished she read the pamphlets about hospital visits.
That shut Cohen up. "Oh…"
"I'm scared."
She finally got up and went and hugged him. "Don't be. It will be over in a bit, I think. You probably won't even feel it."
"You don't know it and you won't ever find out. I wish guys would have babies. It would save us the pain."
The door opened and the doctor came it. "Hi I'm Dr. Muffin. Your usual doctor can't make it today. She told me to tell you she apologizes." The 30 something woman replied.
"Ohh. I thought you would have changed by now. I'll just come back in 5 minutes. Is that ok?" She asked, not noting the worried look on Summer's face.
"Well, actually. I think you could explain something to us. See Summer is a little frightened by all this that is happening and she doesn't know what is going to happen today. Could you explain it to us." Seth said bravely, still hugging Summer.
"Of course. Nothing that drastic is going to happen today. You are still in your first trimester and you can't find out the sex of the baby yet. Well, today we are only going to be doing a couple of things …." The doctor went on about the things they were going to go through during that visit. Summer calmed down a little and both Seth and Summer were reassured much more than they were when they went in that day. One part though, Seth did think he was going to faint.
The rest of the doctor's appointment went though ok. Summer seemed comfortable with the most part of it. Seth sat in the corner in the chair with a look of horror on his face through the whole thing. The only thing that really mattered to him though was is Summer was ok. The good thing to look forward too was that the next time they came here, they could find out whether is was going to be a Cohen Jr. or a Summer Jr.

The trip back home to Summer's house felt like it took hours. They were stuck in traffic.
Summer reached to turn on the radio but Seth stopped her. "What?"
"Can we talk?"
"sure." Summer nodded and sat back in her seat. "About what?"
"Our parents." Her inquisitive look turned into a frown.
"Keep talking."
"Okay your dad is coming home today."
"Yep. Are we going to tell him today?" Summer asked quietly. She knew she was going to disappoint him and didn't want to do that.
"Why not. We have to tell him sooner or later. Why not sooner. Get it over with." Summer seemed to consider this for a moment and then turned on the radio.
"Why'd you do that?" Seth asked.
"This subject's too depressing." Seth reached over and turned it off.
"Hey! I was listening to that."
"Too bad. We have to make a decision on this. I vote yes."
"Ok. We can tell him. But don't make any stupid jokes. He already thinks you're a jerk as it is."
"Good to know." Seth said nodding.
