A/N: I'm so sorry for the late update. I've been swamped with school, work, and sleep, and haven't had the time to sit down and write. I want to thank all those who have reviewed and this chapter is for you.

Enjoy!


"Andie where were you yesterday? You just left!" these were the words that greeted Andie as she sat down ready for dance class. She turned to look at Chase who sat staring expectantly at her. Without pause for thought Andie replied, her voice calm.

"I ate something that didn't agree with me," with that said she turned her attention to the front of the class. Her heart raced as the studio doors opened and Blake's voice drifted in. He walked into the class and searched for her sending her a discreet smile.

"Good morning class, today we will be….." the rest of his words were lost on Andie as she thought about him and how she was going to tell him her news. She contemplated not telling him at all, but knew that she could only not tell him for a while before it would become blatantly obvious. Every time she thought about telling him she imagined him yelling at her and storming out the door leaving her alone, pregnant, and unwanted. She imagined herself a single mother at 18 with no income and no support. She imagined him living a wonderful life with some gorgeous woman who wasn't her. She didn't know why but she never imagined him accepting her news and staying with her because he loved her. Maybe it was because she was slightly pessimistic, or maybe she was unsure as to how he truly felt about her. Yes, he had told her he loved her but how many people say those words everyday then still walk out when a hurdle comes along?

She brought her hands to her lips and ran her nails across the softly in thought. She had to tell him, there was no doubt that she was carrying his child. One test could be wrong, but not six. She watched as he walked across the front of the class gesturing with his hands as he spoke. She knew he'd believe her no matter what. He'd never doubt her if she told him she was pregnant and that the child was his. She only worried about his response to this hurdle.

The class came to an end and the students rushed for the door. Many of them had free classes now, which meant they could do anything, and most wanted to go into the city and shop. Andie hung at the back of the group as everyone pushed out of the room. Chase went to hang back with her but she gestured for him to go ahead, that she would meet up with him later. He looked at her for a moment before walking out of the room.

Andie waited in the doorway until she was sure that no one was going to come back in before closing the door. She took a deep breath and turned slowly to face Blake. He had his back to her as he put things in his bag.

"Ummm….Blake?" Andie began, her voice soft and shaky. He stopped what he was doing and turned around.

"Yes?" he asked, encouraging her to continue. He leaned against the table and watched her with adoring eyes. In his eyes she was the most beautiful being on the planet. No one could compare to her. He smiled broadly at her before her really took in the tone of her voice and the expression on her face.

"Andie, what's up?" he asked, suddenly concerned. He moved over to her and stood in front of her. He placed his hands on her shoulders and allowed one to caress her cheek. She closed her eyes and allowed herself to momentarily lean in to his touch. He went to pull her into his arms but she pulled away from him. He looked at her with eyes full of confusion.

"Andie, what's wrong?" he questioned. She dropped her head so that he couldn't see her eyes. He saw her body shudder as she took a deep breath. After a moment she slowly brought her eyes back to meet his. He felt his heart break as he saw the tears falling silently down her cheeks. His immediate thoughts were that she was ending their relationship, and honestly he didn't know what would happen if they broke up.

"I……ummm…..I have to tell you something," she stuttered. She didn't imagine that it would be this hard, but she kept seeing him reject her, leaving her to raise the baby on her own. She put her hand to her forehead and pressed her palm against it.

"Look, if you….." Blake began but Andie cut him off.

"No, I……I need to get this out. Since there is no easy way to say this I guess I'm gonna have to just come out with it," she took a deep breath to calm herself. Using one hand she wiped the tears from her eyes. She saw him tense and mistook this as a sign that he was going to say something she wasn't going to like.

"I'm sorry, I want you to know that, I didn't plan for this to happen, it just happened," she raced through her words.

"Didn't plan for what?" he asked. His heart began to race, he didn't know what he should prepare himself for.

"I don't blame you if you hate me now, I would too. I don't know how…." Andie mumbled but Blake interrupted.

"What didn't you plan for?!" he cried. The room fell silent as Andie simply stared at him. A lone tear slid silently down her cheek as she lowered her gaze.

"I'm pregnant," she whispered/
