Since Max arrived home she had took off her shoes, jacket and spent the last 15 minutes in the toilet being uncontrollably sick.
Zack took the quickest route home, through the darkest alleys which allowed him to blur all the way until he was just 5 minutes away from his house. When he was in front of the house he looked up to see if any lights were on but there wasn't not even one. This made Zack worry even more.
He opened the door, stepped in and closed it behind him. Zack used his heightened sense of sound to listen for Max.
"Max" he called out as he couldn't hear her
"Zack" Max said faintly before being sick again
Zack ran up the stairs, he reached the bathroom door and pushed it open but it wouldn't budge.
"Max open the door" Zack commanded "Max"
"I can't" Max whispered as she cried
"Maxie open the door please" Zack told her
"I can't move, Zack" Max cried even harder and then she was sick again
"Are you near the door?" He asked softly
"No" she simple answered
Zack kicked the door in to reveal Max sitting on the sold tiled floor, shaking terribly. Max wouldn't look at him so he walked towards her and kneeled down next to her, she turned away from him so he couldn't see her face. Zack knew Max couldn't be thinking straight because he could see her reflection in the mirror and she hadn't realised he could. Her face was all wet with her tears and her hair was slightly messy.
"Maxie…" Zack started but Max was sick yet again. Zack rubbed her back and pulled her hair back out of her way.
"Maxie, how long has this been happening for?" He asked her
"About a month now, I tried to hide it from you but I guess I slipped up" Max confessed
"Why hadn't you told me sooner? You don't have to hide anything from me Maxie" Zack said giving her a cuddle to comfort her.
"I was afraid to Zack, You worry enough about me as it is" Max told him
"Max this isn't healthy, what do you normally do to make it stop?" he asked
"Have a glass of milk and some cookies" and he kissed her forehead and went to get her them
Zack returned with them "I just brought the bottle of milk as well" Zack said and this gained a small smile from her.
Max sat in Zack's arms and drank the milk.
"I'm going to go and lie down" Max said getting up quickly, a little to fast. Max stumbled and Zack took her arms to help her balance
"Max" Zack called to her
"Zack I'm fine just a bit dizzy" she snapped then started to cry
"It's okay Maxie" he whispered enveloping her in a bug cuddle
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to snap at you it's not your fault" she said
They walked into the bedroom, Zack lay down on the double bed, Max followed him and lay in front of him. Zack fiddled with her hair and she lay there with her eyes closed.
"Maxie you said you've been feeling this for about a month" Zack said softly
"Yes" she simple replied
Zack continued "And your having cravings for milk and cookies, that's what also helps you to stop being sick. You're feeling tired all the time and dizzy a lot"
"Oh my goodness" Max whispered as she sat up quickly on the edge of the bed and looked Zack right in the eye.
"What if I am? What are we going to do?" Max said standing in front of Zack with a shocked face
"Everything is going to be okay I promise" Zack assured her as he stood up and gave her a cuddle. She wrapped her hands around his neck and he placed his on her waist. Then Zack pulled away and looked at Max with an unreadable expression on his face.
"Didn't you feel that?" he asked her
"What?" she answered
Zack placed his hand on Max's stomach and Max looked down. One hand still on Zack's shoulder and the other was removing her hair that was now in her face. Max took a deep breathe and Zack smiled. Something had Kicked Zack through Max.
"Oh I felt that" Max said totally surprised
"Lets do a test to be sure" Zack said
"Ye" Max replied
Max and Zack headed down to the little corner shop at the end of their street and the x5's returned to their apartment. Zack sat motionless in the living room, while Max was doing the test. The door opened and out came Max she walked into the living room with her arms crossed and looking at the floor. Zack walked over to her and she looked up at him. Brown orbs met green emeralds.
"Zack…I'm…I'm pregnant" as a tear fell down her check
"Maxie, why are you crying? Aren't you happy?" Zack asked as he wiped away her tears of joy with his finger.
"I can't help it" she replied smiling
"I take it you want to keep the baby?" Zack said
"Yes do you?" she replied
"You shouldn't have to ask Maxie, Of course I do?" he answered smiling
Zack then kissed Max and both of them knew everything was going to be okay. Zack broke the kiss, leaned down and kissed Max's belly and said "I love you baby and your mommy" Max smiled
