Chapter 14
Viki met up with Jessica and Natalie at the hospital. "Did you get something of Starr's?" Natalie asked her mom.
"Yes, I did," said Viki, holding some of Starr's hair from the brush. "What about Cole?" she asked.
Natalie held up Cole's toothbrush, while saying, "I got it right here."
"And I plucked a few of my hairs to check with that as well," said Jessica.
"Well, lets get this over with, and see what we get," said Viki. Jess and Natalie agreed, and hurried over to the DNA testing lab.
Blair was reading something when Starr and the others walked in the house. Starr and the others were talking about something random when Blair walked in the foyer.
"Hey, what are you four up to?" she asked.
"Nothing much, except we got a big amount of homework from Mr. J, and we need to start working on it," Starr explained.
"Is it that big?" asked Blair.
"Yeah it is," said Langston. "A thousand word essay on the digestive system, explaining what all the parts are and their functions."
"Well, luckily I'm not in that class," Cole started to joke.
"Oh, ha-ha, Cole. Very funny," said Markko.
"Well," Blair started to say, looking at the watch, hoping that Viki would be coming soon with the DNA results, "I do have to pick up Jack from school, so if you could keep an eye on Sam while I'm out, that would be good."
"No problem, Mom," said Starr. Blair then headed out.
"Hold it, I thought that Jack gets off later then we do," said Markko.
"Yeah, you're right," said Starr.
"Well, she may have to something else before she picks Jack up," Langston suggested.
"Yeah, that's possible," Cole agreed with Langston. Starr though wasn't sure about that, but dropped it for now, as they had to get working on the essay.
Blair had to pick up Jack, but she first drove to the hospital to see if there was any word on the DNA paternity test. She saw Natalie, Jessica, and Viki waiting by the DNA lab.
"Hey, I just wanted to check and see if you guys got any news," said Blair.
"No, not yet," said Viki. "We're actually still waiting."
"I'll just be glad when we get the results, because we can get this resolved," said Jessica.
"Yeah, same here "said Blair.
"Yeah, though, it is going to be sad that this happened," said Jessica.
"What are you guys talking about?" asked Michael, who walked up along with Marcie.
Blair wasn't sure to tell them, but since Marcie was going to adopt Starr's baby before all of that happened, she needed to know.
"We got suspicions that there may have been a switch with Starr's baby," said Blair.
"What?" Marcie asked. "I don't understand."
Jessica explained it to them. "I finally remembered what happened the night my baby was born, and I had a flash of Bess, my gatekeeper, switching Starr and Cole's baby with mine." Jessica looked down.
"Oh my, are you sure?" asked Michael.
"We're pretty sure, but we're getting a DNA test done just to be safe," said Viki.
"Wow, you got to be kidding me," Marcie said, sounding shocked.
"Oh shoot, Marcie, I forgot that this would affect you too, as you were going to adopt Hope, "Blair realized.
"Yeah, but I don't think we will need to adopt," said Marcie.
"What do you mean?" asked Natalie. Marcie and Michael smiled and then said to other women, "We're having a baby."
Starr, Langston, and Markko were hard at work on the report, while Cole was working on other work. Starr was glad to be working on something hard, because it distracted her from that feeling that kept nagging at her. Cole saw though that she was struggling a little, and went over to her.
"Hey, are you okay?" he asked.
"Yeah, just still got that feeling, and it's nagging me," said Starr. Cole just smiled, and reached to his work, and brought it over, and then he wrapped his arm around Starr. "Is that a little better?" he asked.
Starr just showed the smile that Cole loved so much, "Lots," she admitted, and they continued on.
Over on the other side, Langston looked up from her report, and saw her two friends comforting each other. "Hey," she whispered to Markko. "Look." She nodded over to where Starr and Cole were.
Markko just smiled. "Those two are really joined at the hips, huh?" he joked a little. Langston just nudged him again for the joke, but then they connected lips.
"Hey, that's gross,' said a young boy's voice. Jack had came in, with Dorian right behind him.
"Aunt Dorian, why do you have Jack?" asked Starr.
"That's easy. Your mother asked me this morning to pick him up, as she had to do something. You know where to go, young man," she directed to Jack. He was still grounded for the trouble he caused that night, before Starr told her mother about that connection.
"I know," said Jack, and he headed straight to his room. Cole and Markko looked at their girlfriends for an explanation. "We'll explain later," said Starr.
"But Dorian, that doesn't make sense," said Langston. "Starr's mom told us about thirty minutes ago that she was going to do an errand and to pick up Jack."
"Huh, that's weird," said Dorian. Starr and the others agreed.
"What are you hiding, Mom," Starr asked herself.
"You're what?" Viki asked, sounded surprised.
"But, I thought you couldn't have babies, because of that disease in your reproductive system," said Blair.
"Well, I know, it sounded unbelievable to me too, which is why I got it checked, and it seems that the disease got weakened enough that I can have a child," explained Marcie.
"Well, I'm glad for you guys," said Jessica.
Just then, a lab tech came out. "Ms. Davidson, I have the results of the paternity test," he said, handing Viki an envelope.
"Thanks," said Viki. She opened it up. Jessica and Blair looked on both sides, and were shocked. "Oh my god!"
(A/N: I know you guys are going to hate me leaving a cliffhanger, but I thought a little suspense would be good for this. Stay tuned, as the teens learn the news.)
