CHAPTER TWO

~Zoe's POV~

I rolled over and looked at the clock again. TWO MINUTES!? How could it have only been two minutes since I had last looked at the clock? It was 3:24am and I couldn't sleep. Between finding out that I was pregnant, and having to reject Wade for fear he would think I was trapping him into something he didn't want. It still killed me to turn him away when he had finally come to me, acknowledging that he did still love me and wanted to try.

"That's it." I say grumpily to no one, as I get out of bed. "I have to tell someone."

I trudge over to Lavon's house, letting myself in. "LAVON!" I yell out. Stomping up the hall to bang on his bedroom door, still calling his name.

"LAVON, I need to talk to you!" I half cry.

"Zoe, what in the world are you doing up? In my house! In the middle of the night!" Lavon growls.

"I'm pregnant!" I yell at him.

"Wait, wait, wait… What did you say? You're pregnant? How did this happen Zoe? Who?" He questions, confused.

"Wade and I slept together 2 months ago, before he told me that he didn't trust me, and that we couldn't be together because of it." I say almost crying. "How am I supposed to tell him I'm pregnant with his child? He's going to think I'm trapping him into being with me." The tears start to fall down my face.

"Naww, Zoe, You know he loves you! Give him a chance! If he knows you kept this from him it's going to hurt him." Lavon reasons.

"I already did that all on my own." I whisper sadly.

"What are you talking about?" Lavon says, confused still. I explain what happened the previous evening when Wade came to me.

"Zoe, you need to go to him and tell him! Neither of you are going to be happy if you don't try!" Lavon tries to convince me.

"Or maybe I could just…" I cut off when I see his disappointed face. "Okay! Fine! I'll tell Wade!" I yell.

~Wade's POV~

I'd never gone to sleep last night. I'd gone from being heartbroken to angry at some point while thinking over everything. What stupid game was Doc playing at? She told me to come to her, to tell her I wanted to take a chance and try again. Then mere hours later, she goes and changes her mind!? Women. Well I was going to show the pretty Doctor that she still did.

Just then I heard slamming of doors over at Lavon's. "What in the word?" I whisper to myself, as I look out the window at all the lights turning on at Lavon's. I decide to go check things out, not really sure why anyone would be going around to Lavon's in the middle of the night.

As I make my way inside I hear the not so quiet voices of Lavon an, was that Zoe?!

"Okay fine! I'll tell Wade!" I hear her yell.

"Tell Wade what?" I say angrily from behind her. They both turn sharply in my direction.

"What the hell is going on here?" I ask, "And why are you both in pajama's."

"Zoe, tell the man. And go do it at you own places, so I can go back to sleep!" Lavon says, exasperated. He turned to walk back into his room.

"Traitor!" Zoe says, desperately trying to find a way to avoid the conversation she knows will be coming.

"Uh, Doc?" I say, focusing her attention on me again.

"Fine." She says cringing.

"Out of my house!" Lavon calls through his door.

~Zoe's POV~

Crap. I wasn't ready to have this conversation. I mean, I panicked when I found out. Wade only just decided he wanted to try again, and I already screwed that up, and now… what am I going to do?

"Zoe." Wade stops me by pulling my arm. He looks hurt and confused and still more than a touch angry. "What is going on, Zo? You asked me to come and tell you I was ready to try again, so I do, and you slam the door in my face."

"I didn't slam it!" I say defensively.

"Zoe." He says, "Just tell me why you changed your mind. What had you over at Lavon's in the middle of the night? I thought you wanted to be with me!" He says now almost breaking. I could see just how much this was affecting him, after promising not to hurt him I'd already done it in the worst kind of way.

"Ok, I'll tell you everything, but I need you to sit down and hear me out." I say, resuming my walk back to my place. He exhales then begins to follow.

~Wade's POV~

There's one thing I know for sure when it comes to Zoe Hart, and that's to expect the crazy, over the top and just plain weird. But I couldn't for the life of me figure out what could be in that head of hers this time. She seemed so nervous and slightly upset.

As we reach her porch she gestures for me to take a seat on the stairs. She starts pacing and muttering as I do. "Okay Zoe. Spill it. What is so bad that you end up being over at Lavon's fighting about not telling me something? Does this have to do with you changing your mind so suddenly about getting back together?" I ask tentatively

She stops her pacing to look at me. Shit, no, crap. I think she's about to cry. As I start fidgeting about whether to try and comfort her or not she turns away and whispers two words. Two words that I can only just make out.

"You're what?" I say stunned. Hoping that I had misheard.

"I'm pregnant." Her voice breaks as she says it, louder this time.

There was no mistake. It was exactly what I thought I'd heard. Oh god. I swallow audibly. I feel like I can't breathe properly. I was suddenly glad I was sitting; because there was no way I could stand right now. Shock had me frozen to the spot momentarily before I could even think to ask. "Who's the father?"

I almost regret asking at the look on her face. "It's yours Wade." She says angrily. "You know I haven't been with anyone else since you."

"Look if you don't want to be a part of this pregnancy that's fine, I won't force you to, that's the reason I said It was too late to get back together last night. Because I didn't want to trap you into something you didn't want. But don't you dare insult me by accusing me of sleeping with another man whilst trying to get back with you." She continued.

"Hey, now! I wasn't accusing anyone of anything." I say defensively. "I just wanted to be sure."

"Wade, I'm in love with you. I'm pregnant with your child." She says sadly. "Say something!"

I still have no clue what to say, it's all a bit to much right now, so instead as I push off the steps I say, "I can't do this right now."

I hear her start to sob, but I can't comfort her right now. I need time to think. She does love me. She did want to get back together. She's pregnant… with my baby. Oh god. We're going to have a baby. I've never been more terrified in my life.

~Zoe's POV~

My heart breaks as he walks away. I push through my door and collapse on my bed in tears. I thought if he found out maybe we could talk about it and work it out. That I could make him see I didn't plan this. But he obviously doesn't want me, and the complication of having a baby. He probably believes I did this to force him into a reunion between us. Oh god. I couldn't stay here anymore. I got up and fumbled around blindly, battling through the tears to pack a bag.
