I moved over reaching for my phone. Three texts? Why did I get texts? The only one who texts me, ever, is my mom and Beck…

New Message: Tori Vega

Jade, where are you and Beck? Beck won't answer his phone…

New Message: Cat Valentine

Jadey! Whre r u? Sikowitz is crzy 2day! Ahhhh!

New Message: Beck Oliver3

I thought you would like to wake up to a nice good morning text since yesterday wasn't so good for you. I love you forever and ever! Good Morning hon. Wake me up when you wake up and we'll go to the hospital to get you your prenatal care. Okay? I love you. Here for you the whole way. Love you, gorgeous.

I'm a sucker for cute texts. I deleted Tori and Cat's texts and saved Beck's. He knows how to put me in the best moods. I nudged him to move his arm over and I put it around me and snuggled back into his chest.

"Good morning sweet heart. Sleep okay?"

"Thank you for the text. I love you."

He kissed me and realized I had cold coffee. Instead of getting mad, he rolled out of bed and put it in the garbage. He kissed me on the lips and tossed his keys up in his hand.

"I'll be back, babygirl."

"Where are you going?"

"Just stay here, watch TV or something."

And just like that, he was gone.

20 minutes later, he walked into the RV with a steaming cup of coffee, 2 sugars and a smile on his face. He walked over to me, kissed me and sat beside me on the edge of the bed, handing me my coffee.

"For you my dear."

"This is a completely serious question. You're not just buttering me up so you can leave me, right?"

"Never. I would never do that."

Three hours later

"Jade, Beck?"

We stood up and followed the baby doctor back to a little room filled with little zoo animals.

"So, how are you?"

"We're fantastic." Sense the sarcasm? Yeah. I'm a bit bitchy now.

"Jade, can I have you lay down here? I'm going to take an ultrasound to make sure the baby's heartbeat is steady."

Beck gave me a look that said 'Chill out. Just do what she says. It'll be over soon.' So, I obeyed and laid down on the bed holding one of Beck's hands.

"This is cold. Just a warning." The doctor smiled at me and gave me a wink.

She put the gel on my stomach and I tensed and squeezed Beck's hand.

*Thump… Thump… Thump…*

"Hear that? That's your baby's heart beat!"

I did something I thought I would never do in public, I let the tears fall. I couldn't help it if I had a human growing inside me and I found out it was alive. I knew Beck was looking down at me, but when I looked up at him he was looking at the monitor and tearing up.

"Everything looks awesome. You're at a healthy weight, Jade, and all your vital signs look spectacular. We'll see you next month, unless you want to come in just to make sure you're good." The nurse smiled and walked out of the room.

"That was our baby, hon! He or she is beautiful." Beck looked down at me and smiled with tears in his eyes.

I began to wipe my stomach off with the towel the nurse gave me and then Beck began to help me. He bent over and kissed my lips.

"I can't wait to meet the baby."

"Jade, you know, there's a chance you might not get that big of a belly. Then school won't be too bad. You know? Unless, you don't want to ke-"

I cut him off there. "I want to keep it. It's living. I can't take a life. Yeah, okay, I'm 17. You're turning 18 soon. We'll be fine."

We checked out of the hospital and made our way to the car.

"Ma'am! You forgot your phone in my office. Here." The nurse came running up to us.

"Thanks."
