DISCLAIMER: I am NOT Meg Cabot. I do not own the charecters (except for the unknowns). The plot, however, is all mine.

I'm back from Europe! It was a blast, but I'm glad to be returning to J/S fluffiness.

And pregnancies...

Here's part 3!

Suze's POV

"Querida, It's just a cough." Jesse told me over the phone. "I really do not need medicine. I'll be fine by tonight."

"Jesse, youre at least getting some cough drops so your not coughing in the guest's faces." I told him. It was in the medcine aisle at the grocery store, on the phone with Jesse. He was getting a cold. On Super Bowl day. And we were having a party. So I had to get some last minute food items.

We've been married for 19 months. I finaly graduated College and got a job with Teen People as the advice columnist. I know what your thinking. Me giving advice. But with my masters in Psychology, I can give some pretty good advice. Plus, I was a teen too. And most of the stuff I get letters about I've alsodealt with.

As for Jesse, he's the chief resident at the local hospital's ER. He loves his job because it's more exciting and he helps more people. But it's hard for himwhen he loses a patient. But that's life, which he understands completly. In more ways then one.

"OK, point taken." Jesse said. "Love you."

"Love you too. I'll be home soon." I told him before hanging up. As I was walking down the aisle to the checkout line, I walked past something that startled me. The tampons. It startled me because I remembered about the crimson tide.

And how it never came that month. I was a week late, which has never happened to me before.

I continued walking down the aisle, my grip on the shopping cart a little tighter now. After walking past the feminine products I saw the pregnancy tests.

Could I be... pregnant? I mean, Jesse and I had used protection everytime.

Well, except for New Years Eve when we got completly wasted.

Wanting to be completely sure, I reached to grab one. But I was stopped when another hand reached for the same one. I took a quick, unintentional glance at her face and reconized her instantly.

"Kelly?" I asked as she turned to look at me.

"Hey! Long time no see!" Kelly responed, a little awkwardly.

"What are you doing in Carmel? I thought you were living in Seattle with Paul and your daughter?" I asked curiously.

"We were, but we decided to move down here so Katelyn could go to the Mission." She said. "So how are you and Jesse doing?" She gave a quick glance at the pregnancy tests, but I ignored it.

"We're doing great. How about you and Paul?" I responded.

Kelly nodded. "Same. So... you think you might be pregnant?" She asked curiously, to which I nodded slightly.

"Yeah... theres a chance. And you?"

"Same." She answered simply.

"Well..." I began, swiftly taking the test off the hook as I asked. "Would you guys like to come to our house tonight? Were having a Super Bowl party."

"That would be fun. We don't have any plans tonight and I'm sure my Mom can watch Katelyn." She said with a classic Kelly smile.

After giving her our address and phone number, I went to check out and headed home. As soon as I got there, I honked the horn. It was our common indicater that we needed help with groceries or something.

Immediatly, he came out and helped, after a quick peck on the lips, of course.

I was desperatly trying to find the bag with the pregnancy test in it, not wanting Jesse to see it. But that did not happen.

"Susannah... what's this?" He asked, holding it up.

"Ummm..." I said intellegantly. "It's a pregancy test." To cover my nervousness, I quickly put the milk in the fridge.

"I know that, Querida." Jesse said. "But... Do you think your pregnant?"

Closing the refrigerator door, I turned to him with my hands digging deeply into my pockets. "It's a possibility."

His smile was so great, I could hardly keep myself from doing the same. Jesse walked over across the kitchen and pulled me up for a long, sensual, kiss.

"Why didn't you tell me?" He asked me as he pulled away with a smile, his thumb gently stroking my cheek.

"Well, it didn't really hit me until I was at the store today. Besides, I know how much you want kids and I didn't want to get your hopes up. Kinda like now..." I answered truthfully.

He reached over to the box and picked it up. "Well, lets find out."

I looked from the box, up into his eyes, and back down again. This was a big moment and I was kind of nervous. But I took the box and said. "Alright."

Jesse's POV

I was so nervous, I couldn't think straight. I was trying not to get my hopes up, but it wasn't quite working. I mean, we've always wanted to have kids. But now that the moment is here, it's kind of surprising.

After the longest 10 minutes of my life, Susannah finally emerged from the bathroom. I will never forget the look on her face. Pure joy.

"It's positive." She announced. "Were having a baby."

I was filled with so much joy, I could hardly contain it as I jumped up from the couch and pulled her into my arms, stroking her hair. It wasn't long before we kissed. It was just a quick and gentle one, but it was filled with so much happiness.

"I can't believe were having a child." I told her, placing my hand on her stomach.

She put her hand over mine. "I know. This is so incredible." Her smile was so beautiful as she said that.

"I know." I told her, tucking some hair behind her ears with a free hand.

"I'll call the doctor tommorow and get an appointment. But we should get ready for the party now." Susannah reminded me, giving me a quick peck on the cheek before going back in the kitchen.

I couldn't do anything mut watch her. She was so incredibly beautiful. And now she was the mother of my unborn child. I was going to be a father. It was hard to believe. But it was such anincredible feeling.

The party shall be the next chappy. I dunno when I'll add it, but it probably won't be for another week because I'll be down in the Keys for my uncle's wedding. But I'll add it ASAP!

Until then... review! PLEASE!
