Thanks to those who are reading and reviewing!!!! (:
Okay, so I need to make a kinda skip forward in time because I'm getting bored. Hahaha.
Oh yes—And there is some Wordy in this chapter, so Marissa when you get home from the happiest place on earth (other than Toronto hahah), then you will jump with happiness that Wordy is in a chapter (:
Enjoy!
Sam wrapped his arms around Jessica after a long talk with Jules. He couldn't help but to let a tear escape as he kissed her forehead gently.
"Now listen." Jules stood up from Jessica's bed. "Sam and I think it would be best if we didn't tell Alexis quite yet considering where she is in her life and I just don't need her—."
"Okay." Jessica nodded as she wiped the tears from her face. Jules smiled to Sam who had finally come to grips that being mad and hateful to Jessica wasn't going to help her at all.
Alexis arrived home from school, happy and smiling from the great day she had. Clark was finally back at school and feeling better, and things were starting to return to normal—That was of course not considering the fact that nine months later a new baby would be in the house.
***********************A month later***********************
Jessica broke up with Jake. She told him it was just for her family's best interest that she stuck to herself for a while. He gave her a final kiss goodbye and told her that he loved her and to call him if she ever needed anything. That was when she told him that she was pregnant. She explained how she knew she needed to deal with it alone—and he didn't force himself back into her life. He agreed to let her go on with her life and he would go on with his.
--------------------------------
"Jessica?" Jules whispered. It was around 1 am and Alexis was asleep because it was a school night, and Sam was waiting for Jules to come to bed.
"Yeah mom?" Jessica asked as she sat up in bed. Jules smiled as she walked into her room and sat down beside her on her bed. "I didn't get the chance to talk to you after dinner because Alexis and Clark were throwing a party on the couch—How are you feeling?" Jessica smiled, "I'm fine." Jules nodded, "Well—I was thinking—Maybe its time that you actually go to the doctor. I mean—you're seven weeks in and I think it would be best." Jessica glanced around and nodded, "Okay—." She muttered. Jules placed her hand on Jessica's back, "I love you sweetheart." She kissed Jessica's forehead and smiled as Jessica nodded and fell back to her sheets where she dozed off.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next morning was one of the team's Fridays off, and that morning Alexis was the first one downstairs and ready for the day.
"Sweetie—You don't have to be to school for another whole hour!" Jules giggled as she made her way into the kitchen.
"I know—I'm my things ready for me and Clark's engagement night. We finally found a hotel that would let us check in!"
Jules groaned as she fell onto the couch, "Oh God."
"What?"
"Alexis—I know you two are engaged and all, but I seriously don't think it's a good idea." Jules told her as Sam came into the living room. "What's not a good idea?"
"Mom doesn't seem to think that I should go spend the night in a hotel with Clark to celebrate our engagement."
"No the hell you aren't! You two will go sit down on that couch right there and play go fish with Carly before I will ever let you do that."
Alexis shook her head. "You can't do that to us! We want to be alone!" She yelled throwing her bags to the floor and marching upstairs. They still hadn't told her about Jessica being pregnant and that was why they had become so strict.
"She isn't going—so don't even try to go up there and make things better and give in to her." Sam told Jules as he opened the fridge. Jules shook her head, "I know—There's no way I'm letting her go."
Sam nodded.
"Okay—How about this, you and I take Jessica out for the night considering how little time we actually spend with her—and we can let them have the whole house to themselves for a few hours and Clark can spend the night with us sleeping downstairs."
"Doesn't that kinda defeat the purpose of us not wanting them alone together?" Sam chuckled as he wrapped his arms around her. She giggled, "Yes—But think about it, if I talk to her and Clark's parents talk to him—then we know things wont get too out of hand here."
Sam shook his head, "Sometimes you're just too much of a smart ass for me." She smiled, "I know."
After explaining the entire plan to Alexis—listening to her complain, then give in—then explaining the plan to Clark's parents, and hearing the excitement they expressed that their son wouldn't be sleeping in some crappy hotel with his sixteen year old fiancé, the night was set.
After dropping Alexis off for school and returning home, Jules finally woke up Jessica and explained to her the day's plans—including the fact that she was going to the doctor.
"Mom, I don't know about this—." Jessica sighed as she started to get ready. Jules glanced at her, "You'll be fine sweetie—." She told her as she hugged her gently and left her room to head back downstairs.
-------------------------------
"So Alexis still doesn't know, does she?" Jessica asked as Jules drove down the street. Jules glanced over, "No, we figured we'd let you tell her when you're ready, but I think it would be best to keep any thought of this out of her mind for a while." Jessica sighed. She felt like a disappointment, and embarrassment.
When Jules asked if she was ready once they got out of the car, Jessica shook her head low as a tear rolled down her cheek and Jules hugged her tightly. There she was crying like a baby when she was supposed to start acting like a mother.
"Jessica Braddock." A nurse called from the doorway after only a few minutes of waiting. Jessica looked up and around as her eyes fell on her mom. "Do you want me to go with you?" Jules asked. Jessica shook her head and took a deep breath, "No—No I'm fine." Jessica choked back her tears and walked back with the nurse as Jules at back in her seat, and started to admire the patches on her black SRU jacket.
---------------------------------------
"Sam—What are you doing here?" Wordy asked calmly as he walked into the shooting range. Team One wasn't on shift and Sam had come to blow off some steam by shooting at paper targets. "Just trying to get away from women—I even had to hand Carly off to Kira for the morning." He joked as he stared down the lane to observe the shots he took. "So if I was trying to kill a guy—What would you say would be the best aim, head or chest?"
Wordy chuckled, "Looks like you could take either—What's wrong?" Sam shook his head, "Nothin' man. Listen—How do you keep those women so together?"
Wordy laughed, "Well—Shelley, I just stay on her good side. Then the girls, well they're young but once they get older, I'm going to be asking you two for advice on teenage girls."
"Don't ask me!" Sam defended as he lined up another shot.
"Dude, You've never shot that many clean shots in a row—Something's got you either pissed or frustrated." Wordy started to talk.
Sam glanced up at him, "Wordy—Can you swear to keep a secret from anyone at this station or in your life?" Wordy glanced at him, "My life?" Sam nodded, "Yes your life because if Jules finds out I shared this—I will lose my life." Wordy nodded, "What's up?"
Sam sighed as he hooked his rifle back on a rack. "Jules and I have got a little trouble with one of the girls."
"Man, I heard about Clark and Alexis getting engaged—."
"No Bud, that's with that kid—We've got another issue on our hands now. An issue that I have been hiding for like a month."
"Come on Sam—Just tell me. It'll make you be able to think clearer." Wordy tried to calm him down.
"My nineteen year old daughter is pregnant." Sam blurted out as Wordy's face dropped. "Wow—Woah—Sam, Man I'm sorry."
"Yeah—Well now that someone knows, I can go shoot the guy and have someone to defend me." Sam said seriously.
Wordy grabbed Sam's shoulder, "Sam don't do anything you'll regret. I'm sure things will work out. Jules has always been good with stuff like that. Everything will end up okay in the end."
Sam nodded, "Well—Thanks for letting me give you the whole discuss your feelings moment, but I'm going to go get Carly and head on home." Wordy patted him on the back as he walked out of the range.

"Mrs. Braddock?" A nurse called from the doorway as Jules was pulling threads from her jacket and cussing out whatever company made them. She glanced up as the nurse signaled for her to follow.
When she opened the door to reveal Jessica with her face thrown to her palms, they lady gave them a moment.
"Sweetheart, it's okay." Jules wrapped her arms around her.
"Mom I can't do this—I just know I cant. I'm only nineteen! I'm supposed to go to college and get an education, then a job, then get married, and then start a family. I'm doing it in reverse now!" She cried as Jules kissed her forehead gently.
"You can do this—I know you can. I got through it and so can you." Jules smiled as she pulled Jessica within arm's length.
"But mom! You have an amazing job, you got a full education, and you have an amazing husband. Not to mention the fact that you're in your thirties and you just now had your first kid. Mom—What do I do?"
Jules looked her in the eyes, "You're going to get through this, and have an amazing child to show for it. Then, when the day comes—you'll find that man that accepts you, and everything will fall into place." Jessica smiled to her mom as she wiped a tear from her cheek. When a knock sounded at the door, the doctor came back in with a smile.
"Well—Julianna—." The doctor spoke as she was the same doctor Jules had gone to when she was pregnant with Carly. "He-ey." Jules' eyes wandered as her eyes fell onto her daughter. "Nice to see you again. How is your little one?" Jules smiled, "She's great." Jessica looked around as Jules took her hand and smiled at her. Minutes later an image was appearing on the monitor through an ultrasound.
"Mom." Jessica whispered as a tear broke her eyelids. Jules held Jessica's hand as she almost got teary-eyed. "Can you believe it?" She asked Jessica. Jessica looked up to her and shook her head slowly.
"Well—I'm going to get those images printed for you, I'll be right back." The doctor told them as she left the room.
"You okay?" Jules whispered. Jessica looked over at her, "Yeah—Thanks Mom."
When the doctor returned with the ultrasound pictures Jessica could hardly believe that she was going to be a mom.
"You did great sweetie." Jules told her as they drove home. Jessica smiled, as she knew that she could get through this.
So I decided to end this chapter here. Man—I'm becoming to long-winded in these chapters. :/ Anyways…The next chapter will be up sometime tomorrow! So PLEASE review! (:
