"Look, Squib, I have a confession to make." Cody murmered, pulling slowly away from him. Squib blinked twice and slide a hand nervously through his messy blonde hair. His blue eyes staring at the redhead, anticipating her 'confession'.

"Okay."

"Well you see, the thing is, you know, eurm, it's really complicating." Cody chuckled anxiously as she played with the hems of her shirt.

"Myers, spit it out." Squib said, in a rather melachonly tone

"The baby's not Jake's."

"Okay? Than who's is it?"

"Promise not to scream, throw things, smash stuff or close yourself in your room for weeks?"

"Promise. Now who's Mabel's father?"

"Promise, Promise?"

"Yes, Cody, you have my word."

"Well the father, is well, you."

"Me?"

"Yup."

"But how?"

"Remember that time, like 9 months ago?"

"Very funny, Codes, seriously who's the father?"

"You are!" Cody was now shouting

"Okay, so what's the big deal? This is great! You don't have to worry about Jake bothering you anymore."

"What's the big deal? What's the big deal? You are! You're the father! And I wasn't worrying about Jake because I knew he'd stay away, he was out of my life. But your not. Having a baby is a big responsibility."

"And I'm ready, if it's my baby, I mean ours, I want to help as much as I can."

"Maybe now you do, but what about in 5 months? When you have a tournament? If you're offered to play at a better academy half-way across the world? What are we supposed to do? You can't take care of a baby if you're 1000 miles away."

"Those are a lot of ifs, besides I'm not going anywhere anytime soon, and when the time comes then we'll deal with it."

"No, Squib. This isn't just you and me we're talking about anymore. This is me, you and another life. Mabel. We can't just take it one day at a time, she needs her life to be planned and secure."

"Cody, what are you trying to say?"

"That I don't think you should be involved."

"Involved?"

"I don't think we should date anymore, and I don't think you should be in Mabel's life either."

"What? Why?"

"It's just too complicating, Squib."

"But, Cody, I love you."

"I know, I know, and I love you too. So much. But we have to stop being selfish, the best thing for this baby isn't you right now. You have a whole life ahead of you." Cody voice had softened, and tears were pricking at her eyes.

"Just give it a chance? Please, Cody, give me a chance. If you see it's not working, I'll leave. But don't let me go without a chance, I'll prove to you that I can do it. I'll make you and Mabel proud. I'll do whatever it takes to keep you and Mabel in my life."

"Okay, Squib, one chance." She threw herself onto Squib, his arms clasp around her body, which was starting to return back to it's normal state.

"Excuse me, Miss Myers, Mr. Furlong, we need to do a few checkups on your baby." A doctor interupted

"Alright, well she's over-" Cody peered into the nursery, where her baby used to be, but Mabel wasn't there anymore. The crib that she had been sleeping in was empty. Completly empty.
