Tell me what you thought of this chapter, I was going to end it with this chapter but the story has one more left!

Four weeks later

I don't know what her problem was, I didn't know what was wrong but I was at Brenda's house because she called me crying that she needed to talk to me. She ushered me in at the door, eyes red, and tears dried on her cheeks.

"Brenda what's wrong?" I was concerned as hell, I never saw Brenda like this before.

"I need you to let Jason go, I need you to" Brenda said.

"Brenda! How could you ask me to do that!"

"Because Sam, I'm having Sonny's baby! He can't go to prison just because you're in love with Jason. I regret ever introducing you two to each other"

"You have to be kidding me, how is it Jason's responsibility to take the fall for Sonny? Jason and I love each other, and I know him staying was the right thing to do. It's not his job to be Sonny's scapegoat!" I couldn't believe that Brenda was mad about this, of course she could be upset but it was Sonny's problem not Jason. They were best friends,yes, but why should Jason have to put his wants and need's on hold just because Sonny messed up?

Brenda took a deep breath, and looked away from me. "I'm sorry Sam, I am. I'm just stressed out, pissed that this is happening. Remember the other day? When I said I didn't know if I wanted to be with Sonny because he couldn't give me the life I wanted?"

"Yeah, I do"

"I should've listened to my first decision, I was so close to breaking it off with him. Now look at me...I'm pregnant, over stressed, and my baby's father is probably going to prison if a miracle doesn't happen"

I walked to her, wrapped my hands around her and let her cry on my shoulder. Let her cry until there weren't any tears left. "Brenda, I'm sorry too. I can't let him leave, I'm in love with Jason. We'll find a way to clear Sonny's name I promise" I was going to to straighten this out myself, for my boyfriend, for Sonny, my sister and especially for the child my sister was carrying

The decision to do this legally came quickly, doing things illegally wouldn't help anything. It'll make everything worse. So after class and hanging out with a couple of friends (I needed some me time even though it was a bit selfish), I went into town, I had an appointment with a lawyer named Diane Miller, I was told that she worked with the bad, and the good. She was always my mother's friend so I was happy that anything that had to do with a client was confidential.

"Sam we must see each other more often than this, I've known you since you were an witty bitty thing. And I haven't seen you since you've started college"

"I'm sorry I haven't seen mom much either, but I plan on working on that...I need your help"

"You have to hire me first honey"

"You're hired" I said.

"Good now tell me every single detail you have" She instructed, leaning in towards me from her desk.

I did as I was told, and she listened in intently. Nodding her head at some points, and asking prudent questions about anything that she was confused about. "I think we may have a chance of helping your friend out. And I said a chance, it isn't set in stone that it'll happen." She shuffled through papers on her desk, and brought out a pen. "I'm going to need Sonny's number, so I can set an appointment up"I was at Jason's house with him, he had cooked us dinner, and had rose petals trailing from the door to out back on the patio. He greeted me with a dozen white Chrysanthemum's "They mean devoted love...I looked it up" He blushed as I took them out of his hand, tipping on my toes up to kiss him.

"They're beautiful"

"Not nearly as beautiful as you" He grinned, wrapping an arm around my waist and guiding me towards the patio table where an empty vase was set in the middle. I placed my bundle of flowers in it. Jason pulled my chair out for me, waited 'till I sat down, pushed me in and went around to sit down himself.

"It feels good out here" I sighed happily, breathing in the fresh salty air, and the flowers.

"I wanted us to watch the sunset together" That was romantic of him to do, we were in a fifty fifty chance situation of Sonny possibly going to jail. It was great that, that wasn't the only thing he was focusing on. I felt needed, that he invited me over and did this. It meant he genuinely cared about me, he didn't leave for me, and he'd gone through a lot of trouble for this dinner.

"Thank you" It was my turn to blush, my heart pounded hard against my chest at the wire I felt connecting me to him.

"It wasn't a problem, Sam"

I don't know what reminded me, why I was even thinking about it at this moment. It did hit me like a brick though, my stomach rolled into knots and my eyes widened as I counted in my head.

"Oh god...oh shit! I'm supposed to be on my period Jason"

"So?" He asked confused.

"I'm supposed to be on my period! What do you mean so? I'm days late, I'm never late. Never!" I looked down at my stomach, and I was thrilled and scared as hell. This seriously couldn't happening now. Not now, crap.

"You're saying you are pregnant?" He said finally getting the picture.

"Yes!"

His smile turned up so far that I thought his eyes would pop out, "Are you sure?" He sounded at ease, but I new from his face that he was hoping I was.

"No I'm not sure, but I'm never late for my cycle...I'm just not" I stood up out of my chair, but Jason protested, he asked me if I'd eaten anything today and I hadn't so he demanded that I eat before we left for the pregnancy test. Calming down the best I could I sat back down. I ate silently and then it hit me that I was going to have a baby! A little baby boy, or girl of my ours. Jason and I.

"You're smiling" Jason noted, grinning.

"I just can't wait to finish this so we can go" I said, filling up my spoon up with food.

"We can take it to go" Jason said hopping up so quickly he was a blur.

"Jason?"

"Yes?"

"It's kind of weird having you wait right outside the door, can you wait in the living room until I come out?" It was freaking me out having him just standing there. I could see the shadow of his feet at the bottom of the door. I couldn't pee knowing he was listening in!

He snorted, and I heard him walking away. I did my thing, and sat flipped the top down on the toilet and sat down. I called Jason in, and we waited to see what it would be. We needed to pass time, "I've hired a lawyer to look into Sonny's case" It was the best thing I could think of.

"Who?"

"Diane Miller, she's a friend of my mother's and her record is beyond average." My mom had told me all about Diane, and I've known her since I was little to know that Diane didn't play around when it came to work.

He was quiet for a while looking down a the test stick, "Yes!"

"What?" I looked at down and read that it was positive. Two thick red lines. "Oh...my...god!"

Jason picked me up off the toilet and carried me to his room, "You should be laying down, you've been on your feet all day"

He was going overboard already, "Jason, I'm only about one month along, I don't think I need to get off my feet just yet. I'm not even showing!" I said raising on my elbows. I stopped him with just one look when he looked at my stomach like he thought I was showing.

He wasn't budging, "No, we're going to stay here tonight, then you can go back to your dorm tomorrow."

I rolled my eyes, "Okay, okay, fine."

"We're both going to be fat, and pregnant together!" Brenda cried, and I mean she cried. She was getting really emotional in her pregnancy. "I've always wanted to go through this with you,sis. And look we are! Except my husband might be going to prison!"

"He won't be if I have anything to do with it" I told her determinedly.

"Sorry, these hormones are making me go all over the place with my emotions. Let's go out to eat with the girls. That'll cheer me up." We planned a little get together with some of the girls because the semester was about to be over and because of all the shit that was happening we weren't going back until we were absolutely ready.

Hanging with the girls made me relax, everyone was either smiling or laughing. And it was just like it was before. Made me believe that everything I said was true we would get through this. Brenda, Sonny, Jason and I would make it through this.

"I think it's so cute that you two are pregnant together!" Robin said teary eyed, just moments before Brenda had asked Robin if she'd be her child's godmother. Robin accepted with a ball of tears, she'd just stopped crying now. The two hugged and my heart leapt at the thought of them two so happy.

Carly tapped me on the arm, "Can I talk to you for a second?"

The two of us walked for a while, I didn't say anything just yet. I let Carly's gears roll. "I just wanted to tell you that you're my best friend."

"Carly, you're like my sister! You've been my best friend for ever" I told her confused on why she was bringing this up now.

She stopped in her tracks, "You're serious! You never said that to me!"

I blinked, she was right I never did. "Well I just thought that you would know!"

"Not if you said anything"

"You never did either!" I accused.

"You are unbelievable" She said, then she looked down at her feet. Nervously asking, "So, who is your godmother?"

I rolled my eyes, "Guess?"

Her head snapped up, "Me!" She started jumping up and down, "Oh this is like the best day ever!"

"The best day ever is when the baby is born"

"Well that too I guess"

Brenda and I found a two person wooden swing that when we were freshmen we loved to get on and tell each other secrets. "That girl really shouldn't be wearing those shorts"

"I agree"

Brenda smiled softly, rubbing her belly. "Tell me the truth, do you think that this is all going to work out.

Before answering her I thought about, I didn't want to lie to her. She was putting her faith into me. "Yes" Now I was hoping that I would be right.
