Oh how long it's been. I'm so sorry.

I stood inside the shower that night running my hands over my stomach in tiny circles. There wasn't a bump yet since it was just the beginning of the nine months, but I still felt like it had already been going on for a while. I had taken another pregnancy test before taking the shower and now I was just awaiting the results. The water was turning cold as it bounced of the tub floor and the pressure was weakening. Stepping out of the shower I dripped all onto the tile flooring making the slippery. I grabbed a towel from the closet and flipped my hair upside down to dry it. I then wrapped the towel around myself and shakily grabbed the test sitting on the counter. I didn't look at it and held it away from me, grabbing the doorknob with the other hand. I walked down the hallway to my room where I saw Squid reading a magazine. I stood in the doorway and waited for him to look up. When he did he all but jumped up over to me. I handed him the test and turned away from him, scared of the result.

"Is it…" I didn't finish the question before squid let out a low grunt signaling it was positive. A tear danced down to the tip of my nose and then fell onto the floor.

"I'm sorry," he said as he turned me around to face him. I stared at him blankly.

"It's not your fault," I said tucking a lock of his hair behind his ear, which he hated. I then buried my face into his chest and his arms reached around me.

"Kelly," my brothers demanding voice scolded, "put some clothes on!" his eyes wandered to squid's hand which was holding the long white stick. "It's not positive is it?" he asked. I nodded and showed him the little plus sign.

"Are you going to have it?" he asked looking back and forth between squid and I.

"Yes," I replied as Squid replied with "maybe" at the same time.

"Maybe?" I questioned, stepping back from him, clutching my towel from behind because I did not want to give my brother a peep show.

"Shorty c'mon we need to at least talk about it." I whipped my lip with my finger while nodding in agreement.

"Oh Kelly!" My mom's thunderous footsteps enter the hallway. She squeezed both Squid and I.

"we made it with your sister and we'll make it with you."

"So you think she should have the baby?" Squid questioned.

"Well, yes," my mother said flatly, almost taken aback by his comment. I went back into the shower to finish getting washed up only to come back to my room with Squid standing in it. He smiled, his lips hiding his teeth as he raised his eyebrows and jammed his hands into his pockets. He rocked back and forth on his heels as I stood in the doorway and watched him. He sniffled and the tilted his head to the side like a dog. He was cute, too cute for me anyway.

"What are you looking at Kelly?" He asked, taking giant steps over to me.

"You used my real name," I said, shocked. He shrugged his shoulders.

"I like your name, it's purty." I blushed.

"I don't like Alan," I protested.

"We're gonna have to think of a name for," he patted my stomach, "you know." I nodded. This was something I had thought about since I was a little girl, and I had it all planned out.

"Oh I already know," I said slyly, squeezing myself though his body and the door frame over to my bed.

"Oh yeah, and what are they?"

"Well," I said, taking a seat on my bed while he stood between my legs that hung over the side. "We have Meghan Lee if it's a girl and Noah Robert if it's a boy." Squid nodded and smiled.

"Did you think of those all by yourself?" He asked while kneeling on the floor, still between my legs, so he was eye level with me. I nodded and smiled slightly. He slowly, almost hesitantly, leaned forward and put all his weight on top of me. We both lay on the bed when thunderous footsteps interrupted our moment.

"KELLY!" Amber's high shrieking voice made me cringe. "Kelly, where are you…" Amber's head popped into my doorway. "Oh there you are. You have some explaining to do." She crossed her arms as she entered the room.

"Squid could you," But squid already got the hint and walked out after giving me a quick kiss on the cheek. Amber all but jumped onto the bed next to me. She slapped my knees as if she was drumming on them and looked at me in anticipation.

"Well, I heard the news," She said, seeing as I wasn't about to start the conversation.

"There's a lot of news going around about me. What have you heard?" She proceeded to tell me everything, about the marriage, about the baby, and about how Chloe was telling everyone. I sighed when she was done.

"Great," I said sarcastically. "Just what I needed." Amber put a comforting hand on my shoulder.

"Not going to lie, I thought I would be the pregnant married one before you," she said. I laughed a little before ZigZag poked his head into the room. Amber piled her red hair onto the top of her head and secured it with a hair tie.

"I'm not going to lie," I said with a small smile, "I kind of want to have this baby. I mean, I love babies they're so adorable." Amber frowned and shoo-ed ZigZag away.

"But how are you going to support it, feed it, raise it. You don't have the money to do that." I rubbed my lips together in thought.

"Well, Squid and I will just have to get an apartment off campus, I'm sure my mom would love to take care of he or she, and we'll both get jobs so,"

"But it won't have everything it should."

"Stop referring to the baby as "it". It has a sex you know and I'm keeping it, that's final." Amber took in a slow deep breath.

"If that's what you want," she said getting up, "I'm not going to stop you." She left the room and I fell onto the bed on my back.

"A baby is a lot of responsibilities Kelly," I told myself in a whisper, "are you sure you can do this? You know you have to raise it. You want it to have a good life. Will you be able to give them one?" Squid came back into the room and settled down next to me on the bed. I moved closer to him and snuggled into his chest.

"If you want to keep the baby," he started saying in my ear, "I won't mind. I'm just, worried." I leaned back away from him so I could see his face.

"We'll be good parents," I reassured him, giving him a peck on the lips, "I promise."

awwww how cute. :) REVIEW :)
