Galileo looked up, his arms still around Scara, protecting her. "It's my fault," he said, "I forced it out of her." Brit walked in sheepishly looking as though he had seen a ghost. Scara looked from Gaz to Brit and then to Meat, "I'm sorry," she sighed, "I just can't keep things from him" she admitted as she fidgeted, ashamed at herself. Standing still, almost as if glued to the spot, unsure of what to do, Brit slowly edged a little close to Meat, "Meat…Babes…is…is it…is it true?" he asked again. Meat slowly raised her head and showed an emotion other than anger for the first time in what seemed like an age, it was fear. She was terrified. "Y…ye…yeah…well…I…I think so" she whispered as Brit moved even closer and just held her in his arms. "Oh babe, it will be ok, you'll be ok, and we'll be ok" Brit said trying to reassure her as he held her close. Still sitting on the sofa in the background, Gaz and Scara were silent, watching the events unfolding before them in each others arms.
Slowly and cautiously, Scara got up and walked over to the embracing couple in front of them. "Um…Meat…I'm sorry" she said, it was the hardest thing she had ever done, she never normally apologised for anything, especially publicly like this, but she had done it, and she felt better for it. Meat pulled out of the embrace, "Ah, don't worry about it love" she replied. Gaz, who had followed Scara over for fear of what may have followed hugged her closely, "You did good Scara" he whispered in her ear before kissing her neck softly and quickly.
The news was gradually sinking in to Brit's mind, "I…I can't believe it" he exclaimed as a smile spread over his face before he hugged Meat again. "Well believe it Brit" she said as she pretended to choke where he was hugging her tightly. Still holding Scara in his arms, Gaz spoke to Meat, "So…how long have you been pregnant?" he asked. Meat looked a little shocked, "Like I know!" she said laughing a little. Brit was still out of it, it was almost like he was high on drugs. Meat noticed the sad look on Gaz's face, "sorry Fizza…you ok Brit?" she asked sounding a little concerned. "Alright? I'm more than alright!" he exclaimed as he hugged her spinning her around. Gaz turned to Scara, "Why didn't you tell us sooner?" he asked. She fidgeted a little then answered, "Well…I kinda couldn't, that's why me and Meat were a little off with each other, it isn't like I didn't want to tell you" she sighed. By this point, Meat was getting dizzy, "Woah! Down boy!" she almost yelled at Brit who stopped spinning her. "Yeah Brit, you might make her sick doing that" Gaz observed intelligently. Brit looked a little put out, "Sorry, im just so excited" he announced. The three others all looked at each other and trying not laugh all answered, "We noticed!" at the same time. Meat walked over to Brit and hugged him, "Bless ya." Upon hearing this, Scara looked awkward, "Um…yeah…bless…" she said as she noticed Brit blushing a little. Gaz heard Scara and looked over at her concerned, "Scara? Are you ok?"
